MARCH 27, 1957 THE CHARLOTTE COLLEGIAN Page 3 Spring Sports For CC Now that the basketball season is over, there are efforts underway to promote new sports squads to represent Charlotte College. The sports under consideration are: ten nis, golf, and bowling. There are innumerable facilities in the Char lotte area which could be used for practice and matches, and such squads would not need daily prac tice, so work or school would not necessarily interfere. A tennis team could practice on one of the municipal courts and play matches on the opposition’s home grounds. The team could practice on the week-ends. A golf team could easily be or ganized, for with the sport being so widespread, there are bound to be those in the student body who possess some degree of skill. Christian Film Service, Inc.

DUKE RQWER COMPANY Bowling groups are being formed in Charlotte with little regard for skill or experience, and such a group, while not necessarily of championship caliber, could never theless afford an inexpensive means of having fun. If any phase of this article in terests you, please contact the sports editor of the Charlotte Col legian. Don’t worry about skill or lack of it; many have hidden tal ents which could be exploited with a little effort. New Handbook Available Whom do I see about that article in the Collegian? . . . And what is the name of our year book? Or, why in the world do we pay an ac tivity fee of $4.00? Oh, yes, who did you say was our student coun cil president? How are laws set up around here ? Do I have a voice in the affairs-of-state ? I imagine that all of you have asked one of these questions, or similai’ ones. Chances are, you haven’t received an answer either. The Charlotte College Handbook is a capsule of ready information about your college and your part in it! Rules, regulations, activities, privileges, and most important of all, the constitution are in the Handbook. With elections coming and activi ties ahead for all, it would pay each student to make a trip to the col lege office and pick up a copy of the Handbook. ’57 CLASS RINGS Another milestone in Owl Land was the selection and purchasing of class rings. The gold circlet em bodying the state seal, city-school seal, college name, and class date is highlighted by a ruby colored set (and if you are so fortunate, the Sigma Lambda Chi Fraternity signet). Rings with date of graduation are made available to all students of Charlotte College. Measurements are taken once a year, but rings may be orderd through the Ring Committee at any time. Congratulations, C. C. You are growing and glowing. CLUB CIL\TTEH (Continued from page 2) to be a great party.) Pledge week will get underway at that time. Be on the lookout for some of the C. C. guys in crazy get-ups and with mixed-up minds. Two new clubs are being formed at Charlotte College. Congratula tions on the birth of the Writers’ Club. Plans are underway this quarter for the organization of an honorary social science society. A chapter of Sigma Tau Sigma is being formed at the college; membership will be based on grades and hours in social studies. C. C. clubs are doing great things. They help lend atmosph ere to Charlotte College and bring to gether common interests of the stu dents. The growth of our clubs is bound to aid in the growth of our college. ELECTIONS (Continued from page 1) necessary to clarify that sentence. A new amendment would not be ne cessary if the ccmstitution were sub ject to reasonable interpretation by a Parliamentary Committee of the Student Council. If its rulings were unsatisfactory, then an amend ment would be considered. A Par liamentary Committee would cer tainly save time and effort. But the present Constitution does not provide for a Parliamentary Com mittee. The constitution should make provision for by-laws. Such by laws could be enacted by majority vote of the Student Council. By laws are essential if the Student Council is to fully perform its duties as outlined in Article V, Sec tion 4. The enactment of by-laws would remove the necessity of hav ing a Constitutional amendment in order to do anything. For in stance, if the Writers’ Club desires to publish a magazine each year, a constitutional amendment would be necessary. Why not give the Stu dent Council the authority to li cense publications? The constitu tion committee should investigate the advisability of by-laws. Article IV, Section 4, Clause C provides for the removal of of ficers. Yet the constitutional re quirements for impeachment are so stringent as to make such action an almost impossibility. A two- thirds vote of the student body is necessary. It has been the custom for less than two-thirds of the stu dents to vote in any election. This requirement for removal should be a two-thirds vote of the students participating in the election. Each article of the present Con stitution needs to be examined. Let us hope that the constitution com mittee of the Student Council will do this. A revised constitution would be a forward step for Char lotte College.
