ASUO Senate allocates funds, students to vote on PE issue By JOYCE ROUTSON Of the Emerald The ASUO Senate, in its final session before considering the budget, jiassed three sup plementary funding allocations, approved two referenda for the spring term ballot, and deferred approving the incidental fee guidelines during its Thursday meeting. Those organizations receiving money were: International Education Center—$380. Escape—$350 OSPIRG—$105 for expenses incurred in presenting delegate elections on the election ballot. Referenda approved concerned PE requirements and reapportionment procedures. The incidental fee guidelines, establishing criteria for the amount of incidental fees, were sent back to committee. IEC will use the money for the payment of secret irial work for April, May and June, and the printing of a report of last year’s Model United Nations conference. ESCAPE needs the attitional funds because of the unexpected growth of its program. The money will be spend on telephones, typewriters, paper, com puter time and photography Nine positions will be up for election on the ballot for OSPIRG delegates. The two referenaums wouia come Detore the students on May 10 and 11 primary and May 30-21 general elections. The first referendum will ask students to consider possible ways to reapportion the ASUO Senate so as to obtain the greatest amount of student representation. Two suggested ways before the students on the ballot will be (1) to elect por portional amounts of students from each of the classes in the University, and (2) to elect propor tional amounts of students from each of the departments and schools. The other referendum will be to find out student opinion about present physical education and health education requirements. The students will be given the opportunity to say what the requirements should be, including total abolishment of the standards. The Young Voters for Peace organization also asked the Senate for .$500 to carry out a second pledge card campaign. Due to the lack of a quorum at this time, no action was taken on the matter. The ASUO Legal Counsel also presented a report to the Senate, the first in once monthly series of reports. Robert Ackerman, head of the Legal Counsel, explained some of the things he has been working on. In the last week, Ackerman has made three trips to Salem to the legislature. Although most of the bills submitted by the ASUO have been defeated or are still in legislative committees, he feels they have a good chance of passing some of them. Among them is a bill in the Senate similar to HB1887. House bill 1887 called for placing three additional members on the state board of higher education, bringing the total number to 12. Three members would be students from the seven state colleges and universities. Although this bill was defeated in committee, Senator Betty Roberts has introduced a bill calling for two additional student members to the board ‘Walk for Development’ seeks funds At 7:30 a.m. Saturday a group of high school and college students and other local citizens will take a “walk” to raise funds for the poor. The Eugene-Springfield Walk for Development will attempt to find sponsors who will pledge a certain amount of money for each mile traveled by each walker. Directed by Lyle Baxter and backed by an advisory committee of nine prominent local citizens, the walk hopes to draw attention to the plight of the poor and to allow concerned people to channel their energies into a constructive purpose. The American Freedom from Hunger Foundation is also assisting the project. The plans are to have each walker carry a card which will be stamped at twelve different points throughout the 34 mile route to verify his completion of each segment of the Walk. The Walk will start and finish at the Lane County Fiargrounds and may have 5,000 to 10,000 people of all ages participating, according to Baxter. He said they expect to raise between $30,000 and $40,000. Also on Saturday morning, a Jog for Development, with the same goals as the Walk, will leave the fairgrounds, led by Alton King and Carlos Batista. They hope to attract prominent local runners in their Jog. The local Walk is not unique to Eugene. Over 400 similar walks, in 40 different nations, will be held this weekend as part of International Walk Weekend. Further information about the Walk can be obtained at the Walk for Development table on the EMU terrace, or at Walk Headquarters, located at 608 Willamette St. Check-point workers, walkers, and contributors are still needed according to Baxter.
