1M.ANS USE OF POINT SYSTEM
Mortar Board Seeks Curb
Of Student Office Holders
%
An attempt to curb the number of offices co-eds may hold in cam
pus organizations is being made by Mortar Board.
Members of Mortar Hoard have ’ to Dean staUlng8 nnd the dlrector
undertaken the project because they
feel “some students are being over
loaded with responsibility and are
spending too much time with outside
activities.” Vice President Montlne
Shattuck said.
The organization hopes to formu
late a point system which would
limit the number of offices each
student may hold.
All campus organizations have
been asked to file reports with Mor
tar Board evaluating the responsi
bility and the amount of time the
duties of each office might require.
When the reports are received and
the information has been compiled,
Mortar Board will formulate a defi
nite plan which will be submitted
TEFs To Rework
House After Scars
The entire right front of a new
$95,000 fraternity house must be
rebuilt as a result of a vandalism
incident.
Three foot high letters "AEP1”
were splashed across the front of the
Tau Epsilon Phi fraternity house,
150 Baxter street, near the end of
last quarter.
An acid method used to remove
the letters has left the bricks scar
red, TEP member Gilbert Levlson
said Thursday. Contractors have tn-

A provision in the WSGA consti
tution gives WSGA power to enforce
a point system if one is set up, Miss
Shattuck said.
Complaint Charges
Coeds 'Were Noisy’
On Daytona Holiday
A group of women students from
the University have been accused of
disturbing the neighborhood and
misbehavior by an occupant of a
motel in Daytona Beach in a letter
to Dean of Women Stallings.
Dean Stallings said Wednesday
night that after a thorough investi
gation she was convinced “there was
no misbehavior on the part of the
girls ojher than making noise.
“The letter said that the noise
making occurred in the early morn
ing hours, but I think that the girls
like anyone on a vacation, just
weren’t aware of the time. Other
wise, I don't think that it would have
happened,” she said.
Dean Stallings said that she isn’t
sure if any action against the girls
will be taken by the University.
Dr. James Popovich said that in
terested students should contact him
in room 12 in Fine Arts Building at
7:15 p.m. Thursday.
“Almost half of the students try
ing out for parts thus far have not
been from the drama department,”
he said.
Tryouts for the Luigi Pirandello
comedy have also been held Tuesday
and Wednesday nights.
Critics have said that "Right You
Are” is one of the "purest Instances
The Board of Regents in its last
meeting allocated the University
$6,130,000 as a tentative overall
budget for next year. The depart
ment heads conferring with the bud
get committer try
to confine their
requests within
this amount.
Assistant to the
President Louis
Griffith said the
budget would be
completed and
turned In to the
Regents In time
for consideration
at their regular meeting April 10.
Allocution Increased
The $6-mll!ion budget is $825,000
more than was appropriated last
year. Dr. Aderhold said that faculty
salaries would get top priority again
this year with raises given on a
merit basis.
Other principal Items in the bud
get are supplies nnd equipment and
additional personnel. Maintenance
and equipment make up secondary
items.
In his annual report, Aderhold
stated that It would take a 22 per
cent increase of full professors to
bring the University In line with
nearby universities. A 15 to 18 per
cent increase would be necessary
in other ranks.
Gets One-Third
The University’s allotment is al
most a third of the $21,727,500 allo
cation to the entire University Sys
tem. This Is not out of line with
previous years.
All Institutions received an In
crease in grants oven though the to
tal allocation is nearly $3 and one-
half million less than last year. This
is caused by a corresponding drop in
allocations for plant improvement
and additions. *
