A number of political candidates from Howard Lee to Larry Little have held political functions on campus. During the Monday discussion, Larry fcfftle i i ' * proaucea a copy or tne policy of the Board of Governors, dated January 16, 1977, stating that there is no mention of such a regulation in it. The closest rule to that a. subject is one which states: "No university employee shall use university funds, services, supplies, vehicles or other property to support or oppose the candidacy of any person fui election to public office." Since Russell has no connection with WSSU, the rule should not affect him. -That-regulationwaa-made in 1976 when East CardFire Destroy Continued From Page 1 the blaze.

Brown, the officer-incharge, went up in the 'basket' of the snorket truck: the basket is a sort of cage that can be extended high above the fire truck. It has a hose attachment built in so that the firemen can fight the flames from a higher vantage point. -While Brown and another fireman were aloft in the basket, Engineer J.V. - Seivers stayed on the ground, surveying the progress of the fire.
