in political science, as club pres
ident in a 2Vi-hour meeting

The various conservative fac
tions on campus, from Young
Americans for Freedom to Stu

Nearly Everything, clashed dur
ing the candidates' question and
answer sessions. And some of
their representatives gained posi
tions in the YR club.

Hazel, executive vice chairman:
Tom Mosher, vice-chairman in
charge of public relations; Hruce
Lecturer Speaks
On Solar Energy
Uses and limitations of solar
energy will be discussed by Far
rington Daniels, 1965-66 National
Lecturer at 8 p.m. tonight in
room 16 Science.
Daniels is National Lecturer
for the Society of Sigma Xi and
its affiliated society, The Scien
tific Research Society of Ameri
ca (RESA). The program, which
is open to the public, is free.
In his lecture, "Direct Use of
the Sun’s Energy,” Daniels will
consider the use of solar energy
as a source of fuel in sunny areas
of the world where fuel is scarce.
He will discuss the progress of
research done in using the sun's
radiation for such operations as
water and house heating, cooking,
refrigeration and air cooling and
the distillation of salt water.
Daniels has been active in re
search of solar energy applica
tions since his retirement as
chairman of the chemistry de
partment at the University of
Wisconsin in 1959.
Law School Alums
Set Executive Meeting
The executive committee of the
University Law .School Alumni
Association will meet at 10 a m.
Saturday at Fenton Hall.
John R. Gilbertson, Portland,
president of the committee, will
preside.

mittee will consider its program
for the year. There will also be,
reports on the scholarship pro- j
gram and the plans for a new
legal center to be established at1
the University.
Gerhart, vice-chairman in charge
of programs; and Anne Robinson,
secretary-treasurer.
Jim Hill, freshman in political
science from Atlanta, opposed
Powell for the presidency. Hill
emphasized his conservatism and
admitted having once been a
member of the John Birch Society
! in Georgia.
"1 was a member from the
I middle of 1004 to the middle of
1965,” said Hill, “because the
Society was helping support Gold
water " He did point out that he
has not joined the Society in
Oregon.
Powell was elected on a plat
form espousing unified, respon
sible Republicanism. Calling him
self a “tagless Republican,’’ he
said, “I am liberal on the civil
rights issue but conservative on
the Viet Nam question.”
largest Group
Under Powell’s leadership in
the past year, the club has grown
to be the largest campus politi
cal organization in the state.
Hazel defeated Ed Davis for
his office. At this point the elec-1
tions were still being conducted
in a fairly orderly manner. The
candidates were questioned ex
tensively about National Student
Association, the Civil Rights Act
of 1904, and Viet Nam.
In the election of a public re
lations vice-chairman, the PR
chairman of SWINE defeated
SWINE Grand Boar Randy
Gragg. Grand was questioned ex
tensively about the other politi
cal offices he holds.
The Grand Boar answered that
he is chairman of YAF, co-chair
man of Citizens for Viet Nam, and
of course, a SWINE.
Gerhart vs. Hill
Gerhart defeated Hill for the
program vice-chairman office.
Miss Robinson defeated Steve
Lamb for the secretary-treasurer
position. Lamb did not take his
nomination too seriously, com
menting that perhaps “sacrificial”
should be his first name.
In other business, members
were urged to attend the Oregon
Republican College League Con
vention in Salem April 15-16. The
convention has been entitled “A
Voice of Dissent.” It is designed
to serve as a forum for student
dissent with the Johnson "con
sensus” as well as a vehicle for
the expression of constructive di
rection ' for the United States
government.
Registration blanks are avail
able from Don Powell, ext. 1594.
or Bill Lesh, 555 E. 14th Ave.
The blanks should be completed
and returned by Tuesday.
SU Board Members
Hear Compromise
A compromise of all proposals
suggested during the first two
days of Student Union Board
hearings regarding the selection
of future Boards, was presented
to the Board Thursday by chair
man Dick Lawrence and member
Art Tarlow.
The compromise pian calls for
(1) four out of the total 18
members being elected by the
student body; (2) guaranteeing
the ASUO four positions; (3)
four carryover members each
year; (4) 218 per cent of the mem
bers coming from the College
of Liberal Arts, 17 per cent from
the Graduate School, and 22 per
cent elected by all-campus elec
tion.
The proposal also calls for three
at-large positions which may be
filled by either upper- or under
classmen, two faculty members
appointed by the President of the
University, five representatives
from the College of Liberal Arts
(one of whom may be elected in
the spring of his freshman year
in order to serve during his
sophomore year), three graduate
school representatives, and one
representative from the remain
ing professional schools.
Main point of debate, accord
ing to Lawrence, centered around
the all-campus election of repre
sentatives. Lawrence said there
was also "some debate” concern
ing whether all the professional
schools should have only one
representative.
“Only a few students attended
the hearings,” Lawrence told the
Emerald, "but I think we got a
lot out of them. The proposal we
(Tarlow and himself) submitted
today contained, we think, the
best of what we discussed.
"Some of the people who came
had pretty strong objections to
some points, but I think every
body went away reasonably
happy.”
Next item on the Board's agen
da, is an executive meeting next
week to determine whether or
not it is realistic to make changes
for next year, and which changes
can be made. Full Board approv
al will be necessary before any
changes can take effect.

East Campus Area
To Get Street Lights
Street lights will probably be
illuminating the east campus area
by early May.
The Eugene Water fc Electric
Hoard has negotiated a contract
with Clarke Electric Company,
Eugene, to install street light
ing in the area by May 5. T h c
company has been working on the
lighting project, a part of the
East Campus Urban Renewal
Project, since March 21.
General boundaries of the
street lighting project are Moss
Street on the east; Agate Street
on the west; 17th Street on the
south; and Franklin Boulevard on
the north.
All wiring to the street lights
will be underground, up to the
utility poles. Richard L. Soder
berg, executive director of the
Eugene Urban Renewal Agency,
said that the underground wiring
will probably set an example
for future lighting for the rest
of the campus.
A total of 32 fluorescent lights
will illuminate the east campus
area when the project is finished.
Cost of the completed street
lighting project will be $34,00#,
