Students Endorse Grievance Council By KATHY HALL or thr Emerald A proposal concerning em ployer-employee relations was discussed Wednesday at a meet ing of representatives from the various areas of student em ployment on campus. The proposal would create a Student Grievance C o u n c i 1, which would review written grievances of student employ ees. Any person who is on the University payroll and who is a student could submit his com plaints concerning his employ ment to the new council Prob lems outside the actual student employment would be referred to other committees. It was the consensus of the representatives at the meeting that the council must include employer and employee repre sentatives to review grievances brought before it. and that the council should decide which grievances are under its juris diction. Presently, students have one route of action if they have a grievance. That is. they may go directly to their employer. If the proposal passes, employees will have yet another, and per haps a more powerful one, ac Viet Vets Replace Burned U.S. Flag The Erb Memorial Union was presented with a S41 gift to pay for a United States flag that was partially burned by an unknown individual last week.

A question raised by a rep resentative of the Black Student Union was what the proposed council could do to help the student who feels he is unable to get a job because of discrim ination. It was decided that the council would be able to handle the grievances of only those stu dents who are employees, and that the grievance could be taken to the existing Discrimin ation Committee of the Univer sity It was suggested that a Committee for Student Employ ment handle such problems.

Winger could not estimate the date when the survey would be compiled, however, he said the results would be run through a computer on materials sup plied by the Eugene-Springtield transportation department. The 30 second individual in terviews were handled by slu dent volunteers. Volunteers worked in shifts from two to eight hours, with city employees also assisting. Policemen and members from traffic engineering department, made up the city survey crew. Along with student survey ors. a car “counter" was laid across the street, and employ ees of the city of Eugene classi fied vehicles which could not be stopped by the surveyors. These vehicles included some taxis, trucks, panel trucks, and buses. Winger said that vehicles with city destinations such as bus es, could be checked through the companies, since they had specific passenger loads and routes every day.

McKEKN or tlir Kmrralil Master Subramuniya. a yoga guru from Virginia City, New, of all places, laughingly called yo ga a "fad" and said it was umus ing to see the leaders of the meditation movement hurrying around trying to establish them selves. The tall and majestic native of India told about 100 people seated on the Hour of the Wes 1 e y Foundation Wednesday night "esoteric mind control, as practiced at our Himalayan Yoga Academy, is the key to higher consciousness — higher levels of awareness and percep tion"—and he wasn't joking In an incense-mixed-wit h-Win ston-smoke atmosphere, t h e guru, 21 years of yoga practice inspiring him. said meditation following the principles of re taxing the body and easing ten sion by thought control let loose the deep powers of the nerve couplings in the brain The guru said relaxation of the body lets the mind bring out any tension-causing thoughts for release, thereby refreshing tilt person mentally and physically He listed the three steps of thought control as first, govern the mind’s thought force, then create many thuughts about something to dramatize this force, and finally, master your own thoughts. "These steps are (IiHiriiIt to learn out of a Ixmk.” he added. Master Subramuniya spoke af ter the audience was eased into a state of tranquility by a 20 minute ruga performed by the Dhronhandu, a local « Indian music group, who approximated near-Nirvana like sounds using an electrified 12 string guitar, a converted banjo and a tabla, a small drum. “Yoga is belter than drugs for expanding the consciousness, because in yoga the techniques are built upon by the student; you don't come down. Aware ness beyond oneself is possible, even better, with no chemical stimulants," lie said. "Yoga lets one face the world dynamically, using the inner self to project and recognize auras which are the colors of feeling surrounding a person "You will hr the chemists and engineers of tomorrow," he said, "mo it's possible to end war hy assuming a peaceful role through meditating.” Consciousness expansion, he explained, lets one look at the inner self so the outside world can he seen clearly. To do this, he felt yogu practice was neces sary for the individual who must drop his hates, fears and resentments and begin "a new life as a Being."

PAMPR1N makes a woman look and feel better .. . without relying on “camouflage.” PAMPRIN is specifically designed to get at a basic cause of pre-menstrual problems. Problems of temporary water-weight gain. That puffy feeling that can make you feel miserable the week before your period. (It’s that extra water-weight causing pressure on tissues that makes for headaches and pre-menstrual tension.) PAMPRIN does what aspirin doesn’t. It alleviates the “bloating.” So it gets at the cause of the pain. Instead of just covering it up. PAMPRIN makes a woman feel more like a woman. Every day of the month. So every coed can live life a little bit better. Now that PAMPRIN is going to college. PAMPRIN. It’s definitely girl’s stuff.
