Student senators to
direct A & S funds
By BILL KRUEGER
Assistant campus editor
Beginning this spring quarter a group of student senators
will be in charge of allocating the student activities money for
the College of Arts & Sciences
A&S Dean William Payne has approved a proposal made by
an ad hoc committee of student government to allow elected
student representatives to handle the school’s allocations
The responsibility of allocating the school’s money has
previously been that of a council composed of faculty members
and students appointed by Dean of Student Services Dwight
Douglas, according to Gregg Jocoy. SGA official.
The A&S delegation of the Student Senate will select five of
its own members to serve on the regular committee in a
non-voting status until spring quarter when a new council is
selected At this time the A&S delegation will elect seven of its
members to the council, according to Jocoy.
The seven member council will then be responsible for
allocating A&S student funds Their recommendation must be
approved by Payne and Douglas, however, before it is
implemented
The all student council provides the senators to do the job
they were elected eo do-represent the students, according to
Jocay. “It verifies that the electoral process works and
should be used whenever possible.’’ Jocoy said.
Each senator will have a specific area of the college to
represent, such as humanities or history, according to Jocoy.
The chairman of the council will also serve on the Budgetary
Committee The General Studies Committe. and the
Department Heads Committee
"One complaint I have is all students on the committee
(presently) are all honor students. There is nothing wrong
with honor students, but other students have ideas,’’ Jocoy
said.
The Business School has a council similar to the one A&S is
about to implement. The Business School Council is composed
entirely of students and is responsible for all of the Business
School's allocations.

Athens festival planned
By KATIIY STANFORD
Assistant city editor
Midnight madness and the 2nd Annual
"Downtown 5000" Road Race will be the major
features of the Fall Festival Retail Promotion,
October 12 - 14. designed to bring attention to
the downtown area.
Karen Gilmore of the Chamber of Commerce
said the festival is being promoted by the
Downtown Council to draw attention to the
merchants and the inner city.
"The festival will start on October 12 with a
Student Night Sale The stores will be open
from 6 p m. until 10 p.m. with special sales
throughout the stores. A good percentage of the
downtown stores with all the major department
stores will be participating. It will be like a
small midnight madness sale that is student
oriented, but it’s a sale for the community,”
she said
Also during the sale, sororities will have a
sorority Singout from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. on
College Avenue across from the Arch. They
will have entertaining groups and washboard
bands which will compete against each other.
Downtown merchants will be the judges and
will award trophies to the winning groups.
On Saturday. October 14, the stores will be
open their regular hours, 9:30 - 6:00, but the
merchants will have sidewalk sales, Gilmore
said.
“Also, the 2nd Annual Downtown 5000 Road
Race will start at 9 a m. The race is being
sponsored by the Downtown Council, Athens
Track Club and Fiji Fraternity, and is about a
3 1 mile race or 5000 meters It will be run
through the streets of the downtown area and is
open to everyone," he said.
An entry form can be obtained from Athens
Sporting Goods and the Chamber of Commerce,
Gilmore explained. A pre-registration fee of
$3.00 per person will be accepted until October
6, with late registration on the day of the race
being $5.00 per person
"All those finishing in the race will receive
an official Downtown 5000 T-shirt, while
trophies will be awarded to the first male and
female to finish Ribbons will also be given to
1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in each
category," Gilmore said.
Tramp use discontinued
By MAX GRIZZARD
An accident which paralyzed
a Georgia Tech cheerleader at
that school’s opening game has
caused the University cheer
leaders to alter their routine.
The cheerleader. Dwayne
Sanders, fractured a neck
vertebra while warming up on
a mini-trampoline before the
Tech Duke contest when he
struck his head on a concrete
curb and was partially para
lyzed.
Since that accident, the
mini-trampoline has been
missing from the University
squad's routines
Mike Castronis, coach of the
Georgia cheerleaders, said the
matter had been discussed
prior to the Tech cheerleader’s
accident.
He and Coach Joel Eaves,
the Athletic Director at the
University, had been considei
ing the subject for some time
before they finally decided to
discontinue the mini-trampo
line's use.
Although Castronis said
there are advantages to using
the mini-trampoline, he said
there are hazardous elements
involved. "It’s kind of like a
motorcycle.
"If you’re afraid of it. you’ll
be more careful, but if you get
careless or when you get
excited, it can become a
dangerous instrument,” he
said.
Castronis said the cheerlead
ers were disappointed by the
removal of the mini-trampo
line, but few of them had any
major objections. He added
that Captain Pete Alexander
was a little "broken-hearted.”
Alexander, a former gym
nast and experienced cheer
leader said he was disap
pointed by the decision, but he
would abide by the coaches'
decision “After all, the
mini-tramp isn’t going to make
or break college cheerlead
ing." he said.
The temale squad captain,
Marilou Halastra. said she is
relieved by the decision. "I’m
kind of glad that we stopped
using it, because even though I
liked it and liked watching the
guys use it, I was always a
little bit afraid that someone
might get hurt.” she said
