Senate Loses Quorum • • • (C ontmufd from I’a/ic 1) od to anything but the lottery de leted. The amendment had seemingly passed when ASUO Vice-Presi dent Lee Bollinger announced he had voted in favor of it to break a 72-2 tic. However, Scnator-at large Chuck Stout objected to Bollinger's voting without first asking if any member wished to change his vote. While parliamentarian J i m Beat checked for a ruling, Bol linger called for a re-vote and Senator at large Steve O'Leary, having originally abstained, vot ed against the amendment caus ing its failure. After a minimum of discussion, the senate moved to vote on the entire bill. It was at this time that the opposing trio walked out, killing the quorum. It wasn't the first time the body neared the point of dispersing as Senate Approves Dates of Elections Thursday night the Senate ap proved dates for winter term ASUO elections.

An Equal Opportunity Employer in the Plans for Progress Program BETHLEHEM STEEL Our representative will be on campus FEB. 3 throughout the meeting the num ber prevent teetered around the necessary 15. Nor was the amendment the tirsl to be proposed. Senator lien Bronfman, graduate student rep resentative, at one time moved to have the entire bill deleted, except for the words "Abolish the draft." His measure was sound ly defeated. Senator Nancy Holmes moved at one point to include women in the lottery system. This idea, too, was defeated. Maker of the motion Donahue explained after the meeting that even if he was the only one to sign the letter, nonetheless a let ter would be sent to the Presi dential Advisory Committee. As Donahue’s Public Affairs ! Committee had construed it, the lottery would include the names of al) males between the ages of 18 and 35. These names would be drawn on a yearly basis so that each year, each individual would have a different figure. Then, as needed, the military would take the men in order by number. This would only take place during time of a national emergency, however. To maintain the armed forces during peace time, the bill rec ommended that Congress make the military more attractive fi nancially, educationally, and ex perience-wise for enlistees. In other action, the Senate rec ommended the lowering of the voting age from 21 to 18. The bill was introduced by Senator at-large Greg Foote. The bill called for the ASUO going on record as strongly fa voring the lowering of the vot National Student Strike Planned CHICAGO (CPS)—The days of : demonstration politics are appar I ently not over yet; another na j tional student strike is in the ' wind. Its proponents, as always, ex ude optimism; frustrations over the war and the draft continue to mount within the student commu nity, the time is ripening, they I say. Bettina Aptheker, one of the leaders of the 1964 Berkeley Free Speech Movement and an old hand at this sort of thing, was in Chicago recently plugging for a preliminary strike conference. The idea was not, she explained, "to shut down all universities throughout the country” one day next week, but to involve “t h e many students who are not politic ally active but are against the war and the draft.” Though it would be possible to "shut down” certain schools with a strike, she said, local groups should, as always, have the option of deciding what form their action would take. If there were some who had to stage a teach in, they might want to do that, Miss Aptheker suggested. A "call” issued for the strike planning conference (University of Chicago, December 28 and 29) Debaters to Attend Speech Tournament Fifteen University students are taking part this weekend in the Pacific Northwest Invitational Speech Tournament at Seattle Pacific College. Six debate teams will repre sent the University in debates on the subject of U.S. foreign pol icy. The debaters, and four addi tional persons, will also take part in impromptu and extemporane ous speaking, oratory, and inter pretive reading events. Coach W. Scott Nobles, associ ate professor of speech at the University, accompanied his for ensics team to Seattle. maintains the strike “will serve notice on campus military re cruiters and CIA researchers that the nation’s campuses are ’off limits' for their activities — that American institutions for learning will not be the centers for the recruitment of cannon fodder or the development of new and refined techniques for kill ing.’’ The strike will take place in spring, possibly April 15, but to date, no date has been official ly set. Special Bible Services Slated “Christian Unity” is the theme of two special Bible services planned by the Co-operative Christian Ministry of the Univer sity. The services will be held on Thursday and January 19, at noon in the Newman Student Center, 1850 Emerald Street. Each service is designed to cel ebrate the givenness and present reality, as well as the problems of Christian unity through a short liturgy and three short homilies by campus ministers representing the CCM. On Thursday the Rev. Kenneth Wieg (Lutheran) will speak on Isaiah 60.1-5. The Rev. Jay Rea (Disciples of Christ and Ameri can Baptist) will speak on Ro mans 12.1-5. Mr. Darrell Reinke (Missouri Synod Lutheran) will speak on John 1.29-34. On Thursday, January 19, the Rev. G. Gordon Goldthwaite (Presbyterian and United Church) will speak on Deuteronomy 18.15 19. The Rev. Father Jack Hilyard (Episcopal) will speak on Ro mans 12.6-16. The Rev. Father Bruno Gibson (Roman Catholic) will speak on John 2.1-12.

If this campaign should fail, the ASUO would initiate a drive, in conjunction with other student groups in the state, to secure the necessary signatures to have the issue placed on the ballot of the 1968 Oregon primary election. The idea of sponsoring the campaign and initiating the sig nature drive were tacked oft by an amendment moved by Mc Closkey. He stated that without this stipulation, the ASUO would be passing a bill which would have no eventual meaning. Another part of the bill call ed for taking a copy of the legis lation to Governor Tom McCall, Speaker of the House F. F. Mont gomery, and the Oregon Legis lature, and for sending a copy of it to the Oregon delegation in the United States Congress. A notice of motion to intro duce a bill to recommend the protection of sources for news men was also introduced at the meeting. This will be discussed i next Thursday.
