Webster Recently, a group of students ex pressed an interest in organizing an NAACP chapter on this campus. The SSGA set up a committee to investigate the possibilities of having a chapter and found that only 25 registered and paid members are needed to form a youth chap ter. This committee got busy and start ed to map out a campaign to get members. Now that the campaign is started, we don't want just 25, we want 125 or more. There are a number of students who expressed an interest in taking out a membership and gave us their names, with the promise to pay later. Let me urge you to give us your |l.00 right away. If there happens to be no one in the Snack Shop to pay your money, you can always give it to Rev. Rates or Mr. Zinn. Remember, the NAACP is for YOU too l SEE PAGE SIX FOR POLL. RESULTS OF STUDENT
