So What’s
New?
By PAUL BLEIBERG
In response to my last
article . I received a very
nice letter from Dr. Dan-
ieley. He enlightened me
on a few things which 1
would like to convey to
you.
At the present time,
Elon is engaged in a cap-
itol funds raising effort.
An infirmary is one of
the objectives of this pro
ject. However, no federal
assistance can be acquir
ed for the construction of
an infirmary because it is
not an income producing
facility. Therefore, the
college can only build if
contributions are receiv
ed from alumni, friends,
businesses.
Dr. Danieley has assur
ed me that the school is
concerned and wants to
be able to provide good
health services. And. they
would do so immediately
if the funds were avail
able. So, let’s hang on I
I want to thank public
ly the people who helped
me on my campaign, even
though my only oponent
was that of apathy. As I
said in my campaign
speech, one must crawl
before he can walk, and
walk before he can run.
The 1967-68 Senate has
crawled this year and is
starting to walk.
The 1968-69 Senate will
not only walk but run.
With a strong senate there
will be a strong student
body. With a strong stu
dent body we will have a
strong school, a school of
which we can really be
proud.
I promise that you will
see next year’s senate
the best in the history of
Elon to date. I only hope
that the better senates
come in succeeding years.
THAT is how the S.G.A.
will be great and not be
fore.
Once again, thank you
for your support. 1 will
definitely need it next
year. “Keep an eye to
wards the future!”

A Song
Of tlon
By KEN HOLLINGSWORTH
Igor Kipnis, world-famous harpsichordist, was literally born into the world
of music, for his father was a famous Metropolitan Opera singer, and his grand
father was a well known composer and pianist. Kipnis will appear at Elon next
Tuesday night. April 30th, as the final of the Elon Lyceum programs and also
a part of the Arts Forum cultural week.
The normal spingdis
illusionment over the pre
sent and soon retiring SGA
officials has begun to
spread over the campus.
We are not going to re
fute any criticism of the
present administration.
Many things done by the
officers and committee
men are thankless jobs
and go unnoticed. Most
would want it that way.
But it does give them a
jolt when they are slap
ped with the criticism
that can occur at this
time of year.
Most campus observers
claim that the SGA does
not do anything. (Note the
use of the word “obser
vers.” ) To these in
nocent bystanders may 1
p:int out that SGA was not
organized to serve stu
dents, but to allow stu
dents to serve themsel
ves.
It is up to the elec
torate and the senators
to work together for more
effective legislation. The
SGA President is suppos
ed to represent us be
fore the administration.
Students should channel
their complaints through
him so that action can be
taken.
For the SGA to func
tion effectively it takes
a large number of students
to man the committees,
a vital part of the SGA
machinery. A committee
is a place where any stu
dent can serve. Those who
do not sign up for a com
mittee position have no
cause to complain about
SGA’s inactivity.

Those who missed the
April 6 concert with Josh
White, Jr. missed the
highlight of this year’s
entertainment. Mr. White
may not have had a big
name (although his con
cert prior to coming to
Elon was a sellout), but
he knew how to entertain
as well as sing. The en
tertainment committee
really selected a pro
fessional.
We understand that
there is a master plan
for the landscaping of the
grounds inside the wall.
After two years of slop
ping through the mud
around the new men s
dorms and Mooney, we are
beginning to wonder if
maybe they lost it?
