Budget Board Faces Fund-Expense Inequalities (Continued from page l) $39,000 in budget proposals were presented Monday. The larg est of Tuesday's budgets, and the most questioned, was that of the Student Publications Board at a requested subsidy of $26,457. They had been asked to reduce their last year’s request by $8,000; they are requesting an in crease of about $6,700. MUN, WRA Request Model United Nations request ed $1,636 for 20 students to par ticipate in a conference next year and WRA asked $2,518.52 for their intramural and intercol legiate athletic activities. Commenting on the publica tions budget, Jones said he was “startled” at their asking approx imately a 331/3 per cent in crease in face of the cut in funds Later, members of the board were generally in agreement that the area of student publications was important although they strongly questioned subsidizing Northwest Review, the Oregana and Ore-enter. They took the at titude it would be better to have fewer and better publications than many poorer ones. Northwest Review Northwest Review, the literary publication, was criticized on the I basis that it has changed since i the committee originally estab lished it. from a publication rep resenting student and faculty work to a publication handling limited types of work and appeal ing to a smaller group. Phil Sherburne, committee member and ASUO President, said, "I think the thinking has changed on the part of the stu dents,” pointing out recent ASUO Senate and budget committee op position to continued subsidiza tion. Another member, Dean of Students Donald DuShane, ques tioned the Review’s value to stu dents. Cutting back on Emerald sal aries and elimination of 12-page Friday editions in favor of 8 pages was also discussed but gen erally opposed. Jones said the Emerald was “fundamental” in its service to the students, par ticularly its bulletin board func tion for activities. Salaries Defended Everette Dennis, Emerald edi tor, said that salary cuts would be dangerous since they would be likely to make it financially difficult for staff members to con tribute large amounts of time necessary. Salary cuts might also ! mean the loss of staff members DANCE DANCE The MARKETTS "ALLEY-00 P" "OUTER LIMITS" "SURFERS STOMP" "VANISHING POINT" Sunday, 9-1 ADMISSION: $2 THE CASCADE 32ND. AND JASPER SPRINGFIELD who could net better paying jobs on other publications. DuShane countered with the idea of future financial advan tages of experience on the Em erald and greater need for sal aries in areas such as the Ore gana with "boring, repetitive work" than with “creative" work on the Emerald. The committee also favored putting the Oregana on a self subsidizing basis next year, ques tioning its value in lieu of other publications which could serve the same or greater value. The percentage of the student body buying Oreganas was also noted as lower. There was little discussion on the WRA budget, since it was only slightly more than in pre vious years. Jones warned about $800 might have to be cut, and Phyllis Ford, WRA Adviser, in dicated this would mean cutting out activities. She said about 20 per cent of University women, all of whom are technically WRA members, actively participated ; last year. Model united rsattons repres I entatives Leon Goss and Steve i Hutchison presented their bud ! get, which concerned financing | 20 delegates at next spring’s con ! ference at Claremont, Calif. Jones i suggested that only $700 of the $1,636 requested would be ap propriated, eliciting the response that conference participation would have to be canceled but the program would continue in some form. Committee member A. L. “Si” Ellingson suggested it was time MUN Pacific Coast group split, since too many people are in volved and the large area in cluded requires conferences lo cated at too far a distance from most participating schools. Hutch ison said this has been considered but there was some opposition among members. Jones said MUN was using its money “very well” but they are “low on the totem pole of stu dent activities." Jim Lussier, 1963-64 Greater Oregon director, put in a plea for the organization’s budget of $2530, presented Monday night.
