House Imposes Monetary Control On Activists WASHINGTON — House members have shown their dis pleasure over continuing fer ment on college campuses by voting to deny federal loans, scholarships and grants to stu dents participating in serious campus uprisings. The recent student - adminis tration power struggle at Co lumbia University was mention ed repeatedly Thursday as the House voted 306 to 54 for an amendment to prevent federal financial aid from benefiting stu dents joining in disorders that disrupt a college's operations. Sponsored by Rep. Louis Wy man. R-N.H., the amendment would bar federal assistance funds from going to any student who refuses to obey a lawful order of the college authori ties and is determined by those authorities to have taken part in activities that lead to a dis ruption of operations at the college. The amendment would not affect participants in disorders occurring before final enact actment. The proposal has not been voted on yet by the Senate.

"His honesty, integrity, and directness make him most like ly not to be talking for a party, a machine, or for himself, but rather for the American peo ple,” Wal Address proximately 100 people in 1 ence. Wald, who has received recognition from Time Magazine as one of the nation's ten best educators, dis cussed the national and inter national problems to be faced by a new chief executive. He outlined the issues McCar thy and other prospective can didates must face, categorizing them as "frightfully big, mod erate and immediate.” “Immediate problems include the Vietnam war,” he said. “So far as the issues in the present contest are concerned, the war is almost trifling in the bal ance. "Moderate-sized problems are those which deal with Ameri can life and American way of life. “And the largest problems are those which involve the hu man condition itself, and, in a very real sense, the fate of man.” The large-problem picture is twofold, Wald said, with the first problem being “the need to gain control of the popula tion. We’re embarrassed by our capacity for reproduction. Senate Says Additions Upset Search Group Editor’s note: Deadline pres sures Thursday night prevented complete coverage of the ASUO Senate meeting. The following is a report of the rest of the action taken at that meeting. The ASUO Senate passed a resolution concerning the Presi dential Search Committee which stated that the addition of three more members to the commit tee upset the balance agreed upon with Chancellor Lieuallen. The Senate felt this action should not have been taken with out the addition to the commit tee of another student member. It was also agreed that there should be no alumni on the committee. In other action, the Senate passed a bill abolishing the oath of office. The contention was “the filing of a petition for office and subsequent election is a defacto affirmation of an in dividual’s interest in student government.” A bill introduced by Paul Newman proposing a recorded telephone newsletter to keep ofl'-campus students informed of the actions of the ASUO was also passed. The Senate passed a recom mendation that “the Student Administration Board (SAB) transfer the function of choos ing a performer for a Special Attraction to the Social Division of the ASUO Program Council.” Tom Fagan’s bill setting up guidelines for the ASUO Aids Commission also was passed by the Senate. According to the provisions of the bill, the fund will be administered by seven students appointed by the ASUO president. These seven students will be responsible for estab lishing policy on loans and grants to be given from the fund. The Senate also passed a reso lution appropriating $50 to the Office of the Minority Group Advisor. A by-law amendment, intro duced by Bob Winger and pass ed by the Senate, called for the Committee on Public Affairs to broaden its scope. Instead of dealing solely with “state, na tional, and international affairs and issues concerning students,” it will now be concerned with state, national and international issues.” Winger’s bill also es tablished a Committee on Off Campus Students. A massive revamping of Sen ate by-laws proposed by Bill Kerlee was postponed until the next meeting. SENIORS: SUDS! (All you can drink!) FOOD! (All you can eat!) Senior Picnic Armitage Park 1-6 P.M.

"The frightening thing about these problems is that we have so little time to deal with them —they were upon us almost be fore we realized it,’’ Wald said. Two problems are of devas tating import, Wald said, the first being race, the second be ing “the degree to which the U.S. has become something of a military state, prey to the military - industrial complex’ Eisenhower warned us about.’’ Wald criticized national ex penditures for military might to the neglect of domestic is sues, and predicted “a real night mare” in the possible future clash of government military personnel with rioting Negroes. “In a sense,” he said, “Black Power is a fine idea, in its at tempt to solve problems and ob tain representation. But the idea of violence could have ter rifying repercussions, particu larly if the army moves into our cities to maintain law and or der. Violence and civil diso< bedience are dangerous tools, and people must recognize how dangerous they are.” Wald ended his talk on the encouraging note, “There is still a chance for us to sur mount these problems — in fighting for the side we believe right. It’s a time in which no one can stand aside. History doesn’t happen—it is made. And so it is made by us.” Why not a Professional CAREER in CHIROPRACTIC?
