By Philip Cardea ' The Ways and Means committee of the Student Legislature probably will draw up its final draft of the propos ed campus organization bill in a meet ing this; afternoon at 5 o'clock in Gra ham Memorial,, Chairman Terry San- ford said yesterday. Tentative discussion., in . an earlier committee meeting indicated that the bill will probably be revised to create an advisory committee to the presi dent of the student body instead of the student body organization called for in the original proposal. De-centralization of the organiza tion and other guarantees against its misuse appeared to be the motives for most of the changes proposed by com mittee members. The four chairmen originally specified to head the or ganization and work with the presi dent of the student body probably will not be created. Author of Bill A "committee on organization, for national defense" appointed by Dave Morrison, during the summer was the author of the bill. f The committee was appointed be cause leaders felt that the student body should have a direct voice in de cisions on critical issues, especially in view of the sweeping changes made since the University embarked on its program of cooperation in national de fense. : . The bill, however, is not a defense measure in itself, Morrison pointed out, since defense is only one of many subjects on ' which accurate " student opinion is desired. Organization Plan As proposed by this committee, the plan was to organize the whole cam pus geographically into 400 discus sion i sections of about 10 members. The chairmen" of these sections would -form 40 groups of 10, the chairmen of these groups form four areas of 10, (Continued on page 2, column 4) Town Boys Club Picks Legislcitors, Secretary Tonight The Town Boys' Association meets tonight at 7 :30 iri Gerrard hall to elect a secretary and five represent atives to the student legislature.
