Budgets Cut, Discussed, Still Unbalanced Editor's Note: l»uc to spare llm Hatlons resulting from election news, the report of the HU EdAc Budget Hoard's meeting will be published In two parts. The sec ond part will be In Wednesday’s Emerald. By PHI!. SENAS Emerald Editor The Student Union and Edu cational Activities (SU EdAc) Budget Board Sunday tentatively cut one budget—forensics— $2,200, held a long discussion on the merits of proposed ASUO pro grams, and planned another long session for this morning as part of the process of balancing its budget. The Budget Board governs budgets for the operation of the Student Union, ASUO Board, Publications Hoard, and other smaller programs. Its money comes from the operation of the building, profits from programs, and student fees. It is advisory to University President Arthur S. Flemming. This is the problem the Budg et Board faces: It has, from fees and profits from SU operation $08,733 to use for programs. It also has about $10,000 in extra profit from this year’s SU operation, for a total of $108,733. But the requests for programs total $148, 883 ■ ■ ■ KWAX (Conltnurd from pa (if 1) that he took exception to this with the Viet Nam issue. He said that the situation had become so crucial to the students and af fected them so vitally that stu dent government should respond to the wishes of the students. When the question of the Uni versity membership in NSA came up, opinions divided again Gragg stated NSA was "undemocratic and unrepresentative.” He main tained it was against the Greek system. Empey, Hammond and Miss Knupp challenged Gragg's stand by. strongly supporting NSA. Em pey cited it was beneficial, built interested, and initiated important programs Miss Knupp agreed and cited the example of the pov erty conference as an idea that sprang from the NSA. Hammonds stated it provided a "forum to get leaders together.” The program closed with Ham mond urging every student to vote Wednesday.

CO-OP BOARD JUNIOR POSITION In other words, somewhere the Budget Board must cut $40,150 out of programs. The budget was about $3,100 higher than that but the Bally Board’s budget will now fall un der the athletic department. The cut in the forensics budg et was aimed primarily at $1, 500 for symposiums. The motion made by ASUO President Steve Goldschmidt, recommended to President Flemming that this program be financed out of the general University budget. Under the symposium program students travel around the state discussing various topics before high school and service club au diences. Several budget board members indicated they felt that this program was worthwhile but legitimately belonged in the gen eral University budget. The other $700 was cut on a motion by Gene Sokolski. Sokol ski suggested that the debate team might cut out two of their California trips. There are pres ently four trips planned. The Board also discussed cut ting the music department's budg et for new programs, recommend ing that some of these expenses, such as teaching assistants for a planned glee club, might be tak en out of the general University budget. They did not make a decision on the music budget but Bob Colt man planned to contact Dean Robert Trotter before the next meeting. Most of the discussion, how ever, revolved around the ASUO budget, although no decisions were made on it. ASUO has asked for a $31,874 subsidy this year, compared to $9,30(1 last year. a • ■ Kingslien (Continued from page 1) lion said thoro would be a “shad i ow" (trade kept On these courses. A “shadow" (trade would not be ■ used except when the student later asks for it. To further the trend for more involvement, he favors holding Senate meetings in dorms and houses. For off-campus students the senate should arrange for central off-campus meeting places and meet with them, he said. He favors the publication of a Sen ate newsletter to reach all the students. Kingslien supports the Univer sity's participation in NSA be cause of the benefits he says the students aren't informed about. Some of these benefits include the following: the ability of our Sen ate to obtain information from other member schools on pro grams they have, travel discounts, and effective lobbying in national government on educational is sues. lie said that many of the ideas for pass-and-fail grades, the tutorial program started this year, and work-study program have been obtained through NSA. Amendments Endorsed Interfraternity Council unani mously endorsed the six proposed amendments to the ASUO Con stitution. And the ASUO Senate’s “con cern over national and interna tional affairs, as long as on-cam pus issues and services are not neglected.” APO Backs Aspirant Alpha Phi Omega has an nounced its support for Hal Kings lien for senator-at-large, and is also hacking NSA. Endorsements were obtained through a tele phone poll Monday night. ELECT DEAN LEWIS Mtmber-aNUrSB S.U. BOARD PATRONIZE YOUR • ADVERTISERS. William C. Jones, dean of ad ministration and chairman of the Budget Board, noted that the four student members were all ASUO officers (three senators and Goldschmidt), fie said he plann ed therefore to raise questions about the ASUO budget which he did not feel would be raised otherwise. "I wonder if the students would be willing to spend this much money on the ASUO,” Jones said. “I would raise the question of whether the best of this cam pus are served by spending this much money.” Speaking slowly, carefully, Jones said he was "impressed by Fourth Wreck Victim Identified The fourth University student killed Sunday night was identi fied today as Roger Clarence Barnes, a senior in personnel and industrial management from Nyssa, Ore. He lived at 1762 Ferry St. in Eugene. The other three students lived at 585 E. 19th Ave. Dec Baker, a I transfer from Oregon State Uni versity, was a member of two honoraries, Beta Alpha Psi and Beta Gamma Sigma. He worked in the University Business Office. | Barnes was a transfer from Eastern Oregon College. Ted Christensen had been a 1 member of Phi Theta Kappa, an i honorary at Multnomah Junior , College. He also worked for Freight Line Corporation. Gregg Coyle had recently re cently returned to the University , from the University of Arizona 'Communication' Dialogue Subject “Students, Faculty, Ariminisrta tion: Problems in Communica | tion?” is the subject for the Y - Dialogue at 4 p.m. today in the Bottom-of-the-Bowl. Participants in the discussion will be William C Jones, dean of administration; John C. Sherwood, professor of English; and Annette Buchanan, managing editor of the Emerald. Sherwood has voiced his con 1 corn about poor communications between University personnel in l “Ye Almost Daily Rhinestone" published in Prince Lucian Camp bell Hall. All participants in the discussion will air the commu nication problem as they see it. Controversy in communication has risen this year over such is sues as the Mosser Plan, student representation on the Faculty Senate, faculty evaluation, and l the role of the Emerald. Questions will be invited from those attending the Y-Dialogue. I DC Endorses NSA Inter-Dorm Council unanimous ly approved a motion Monday night to endorse continued ASUO affiliation with the National Stu dent's Association. Passage of the motion followed a defense and clarification of NSA organization and activity by Steve Goldschmidt, ASUO president, and Tom Clark, ASUO vice-president. Democrat to Speak Charles O. Porter, Democratic candidate for the nomination for Congress from the Fourth district will speak to members of the Sierra Club and other interested individuals on the topic of con servation issues at 12 noon today in the Student Union. the fantastic Jack of interest on this campus in student govern ment. The reason seems to be that there isn’t very much for the student government to do on this campus. Despite all the fuss and furor I don’t think the stu dent government really has very much to scrap with the faculty about.” Therefore, Jones said, he would "have to vote against most of the requests the ASUO has made.” He objected to three specific requests in the budget: salaries, $10,000 for a speaker program, and $5,000 for two research as sistants. Goldschmidt asked for $12,494 in salaries, compared to $1,834 last year. This includes $1,355 apiece for ASUO presi dent and vice president and the addition of a full-time civil serv ice secretary. Jones said he objected to the salaries because "I don’t think students ought to make a full time job out of being president (Continued front page 1) fore he takes a stand on any issue. He also said that the Sen ate shouldn’t involve itself with od-campus issues. Pruitt contends that the Senate should take stands on off-campus issues because students are in volved not only in University life but in the life of the entire com munity. “For myself,” he con tinued, "I can't draw a line saying this is where the campus ends and the world begins." He added that he didn't know exactly which students it is his duty as a senator-at-large to rep resent—the 1,200 student who actually voted for him or the en tire student body. He added that when students voted for him. they were aware of his philosophy and views about the responsibilities of student l leaders. He said he viewed each | vote for him as an endorsement I of his political philosophy. He said that if students don’t [like the Senate or the composi tion of the Senate, they have only themselves to blame. "You elected the people on the Senate,” he said. Taylor emphasized that all the work on Pruitt’s proposal was done during special meetings or when all of the other business of the ASUO Public Affairs Com mittee was finished. r or vice president of the student body.” Goldschmidt replied that this did not make the two offices a full lime job, that it instead would merely pay students what it cost them to go to school while in office. Goldschmidt said that unless salaries for student lead ers are raised, students are be ing barred from these positions because of a lack of Financial re sources. Liberals Back Ticket The Campus Liberal Organiza tion endorsed the Drummonds Bollinger ticket for ASUO presi dent Monday. The group also voted to sup port the following candidates for senator-at-1 a r g e: Bob Caufield, Errol Hammond, Emily Knupp, Tom Mesher, and Dave McClos key.
