Student Council 'in Pot’
As Politics Begin to Boil
By Hugh Davis
Campus politics appeared nearing the boiling point again today after
a brief respite at the end of the summer, as a group on the campus an
nounced its intention to revamp the Student Council’s established Con
stitution.
"Brief Music,” a comedy of col
lege life, will he given in the Green
room Theatre of the Fine Arts
Building, Monday through Thurs
day, October 9-12, at 8:30 p. m. as
the first University Theatre produc
tion of the season.
Pat King, Columbus, and Frences
Morrison, Birmingham, Ala., play
the leading roles, parts they por
trayed this summer when tho play
was given for summer school nudl-
encos. Miss King, senior drama ma
jor, is also business manager of the
University Theatre and has worked
on eight production including the
leading role in "Stago Door.” Miss
Ex-president of the Student Coun
cil Guy Scott, in a move which was
condemned In an open letter to the
Red and Black by Forrest Champion,
Campus Leader, called a meeting of
the Council for next Wednesday
night at 8 o'clock, while Arthur
Heyman, Vice-President of the Inter-
Fraternity Council, urged the stu
dents to cast out the original Con
stitution and adopt one which will
be proposed.
Meanwhile, details of the plan to
shake up the Council as It was ori
ginally established became known:
They call for reapportionment of the
votes In the Council on a basis of
housing units, and elimination of the
leaders in student activities and
clubs, who if opposing the measure,
were termed “demagagues . . . un
fit for office” by Heyman.
In an interview with the Red and
In Brief. . .
Black, Champion warned "of any
changes in a system which has
served the student body so admira
bly in the past,” declaring that the
"only objection to the present Con
stitution is the fact that it has never
been adhered to by those at the head
of . . . and trying to run the Student
Council as a political football."
Continuing, Champion lashed out
at the charge that "the leaders in
campus, sorority and fraternity cir
cles are Incapable of conducting the
business of the council, aa implied
by those who demand drastic de
partures from the present set-up.
“After all, the Council has power
to do only two things of major im
portance: First, to conduct all cam
pus-wide drives—and who is so
brazen to assert that the bond drives
and blood drives have not been over
whelming successes? Second, to
conduct elections . . . Are the presi
dents of the clubs so devoid of ability
that they can’t carry on these sim
ple functions?”
Heyman in his letter to the Edi
tor, claimed “the council Is . . . un
democratic," branding those who
will oppose Scott's proposal as hold
ing "an undeserved position of im
portance."
He asserted that "there is a large,
unrepresented majority (who are not
included in POW, GOP, the frater
nities, sororities or the 40 or 50
organized clubs) and who should be
Included.”

Vets on Campus
Organize Club
The over 50 World War II veter
ans on the campus of the University
of Georgia have banded together in
to the “University Veterans' Asso
ciation.”
At a meeting held Monday after
noon in Demosthenian Hall, the vet
erans chose a committee of seven
to draw up a proposed constitution
and call a second meeting for its
consideration and the election of
permanent officers.
John M. Gaulding, Jr., a former
ensign in the Navy, and chairman
of the constitution committee, ex
pressed the hope, in an interview
with The Red and Black, that a
sound constitution would soon be
complete.
The veterans are planning ‘o hold
get-togethers at regular intervals,
much as any other club on the cam
pus, and are looking forward to
sponsoring some social events of
their own.

POWs Meet,
Plan Activities
The Party of Organized Women
held their initial meeting of the fall
quarter In Chapel Monday night at
7:15 o’clock.
Margaret Lilly, Avondale Estates,
President, explained the Constitu
tion and the election of council mem
bers from each dormitory, which
must be done by Monday night.
All POW's will meet In the Chapel
on October 16th, and the council will
meet in the Strahan House on Octo
ber 9th and 23rd.
“The POW’s plan to sponsor some
form of campus-wide activity each
quarter, and will organize a team
from each dormitory for the intra
murals," Margaret Lilly said in a
statement to the Red and Black.
By Ann Huguley
With the possible exception of pro
fanity and the worn-out term, "I
can’t,” probably the most popular
phrase on the Georgia campus Is
"Got a cigarette?"—and following
close on its heels. “Got a match?”

of the Georgia students. They bum

Veterans Take
Special Courses
In Agriculture
Postwar efforts to develop agri
culture to compete in a world of
freer trade will doubtless create a
strong demand for men trained In all
phases of agriculture,” is tho opinion
of Dean Paul W. Chapman of the
College of Agriculture. "We are
preparing young men to meet this
demand by offering special one-year
courses for veterans, beginning with
the fall term."
Veterans, especially, realize that
the United States must do its part
in supplying food for the starved
people, Dean Chapman says, and
many have enrolled in tho four-quar
ter course to get the necessary knowl
edge needed to operate their farms
successfully.

Skijnvortli to Lead
Kush on Stockings
By Kick Butler
Tho Presbyterian Blue Stockings
will meet, the Bulldogs on tho re
bound from lust week's defeat, when
they dash tonight til Sanford Sta
dium. Odds favor the Red and
Black eleven as they have been pro-
erly humiliated and seasoned In
preparation for tonight's tilt.
Lust Friday night the Bulldogs
wore downed by the Wuke Forest
Deacons, the rain and a host of
tough breaks. In this game the
Bulldogs proved to be a high-spirited
and hard-fighting team that will win
quite u few hall games this season.
With blood in their eye and a
fighting spirit the homo team will
seek to uvenge last week’s misfor
tune.
Wrinkles Ironed Out
The Bulldogs have ironed out the
wrinkles in lust week's game. The
linesmen have worked strenuously
tills week at the hunds of the lino
couch. .1. II. Whitworth. Also, lie'
puss attack has been smoothed out
and in clicking n great deal better,
with George Sklpworth, Ken McCall
and Hilly Hodga using a bit of Wil
liam Tell accuracy.
Omar Heim, Bulldog fullback will
probably be out again tonight but
It is suspected that Larry Bouley and
Bill llaley will be In good shape to
(ill his shoes. At any rate wo probu-
bly will escape safely without his
services this week.
Billy Rutland, right halfback, and
“Black Mtko" Castronls, proved to
be very deserving of their positions
us captain and alternate, to which
they were elected last week.
Bo, into this greatly Improved
Bulldog line-up comes the Presby
terian Blue Stockings hid by Coach
Lonnie McMillan.
Klecklcy leads Attack
To lead the attack for the Stock
ings are Rube Kleckley and Billy
Raine. The "Rube" being a six foot
three inch, 200-pound end that
proves he is plenty dangerous. This
"hunk" of man also carries a power
ful foot for booting the bull around.
To keep him company is Billy Raine,
a 155-pound Stocking back that has
proved to be effective so far.
The Blue Stockings are rated no
higher this season than last, when
the Bulldogs rolled over them twice,
25-7 and 40-12. By this It seems
that the home team should have lit
tle trouble in ringing the old chapel
bell for the first but not the last
time this season.
It is very bud to underestimate a
team but the Bulldogs are keyed up
and ready to growl a much more ef
fective growl than last week. Of
course the results remain to be seen
and It is up to you to “back the
attack” tonight.
The University of Georgia Pre-
Flight band, under the direction of
Chief Briley, will again be present to
boost the Bulldogs and their root
ers.
