Studies Made
On Calendar
It was announced by the Dean
of students at the SGA Executive
Board meeting this week that a
special Committee has been ap
pointed to study possible changes
that might be made in the col
lege calendar. One of the main
changes under consideration is
ending the Fall semester before
Christmas. The committee was to
report on its findings Wednesday
of this week. Along with the facul
ty who are on the committee
there are three student members.
It was also announced by the
Dean of Students that a thirdy-d£ty
extension had been requested on
bids for the proposed men’s dorm,
and it has been granted. Dean
Bennett said this was done in
hopes that by having this addi
tional time and by working with
the architect the cost of the dorm
could be brought back into per
spective, thus preventing the
whole project from having to be
abandoned.
Dwight Wagner, SGA president,
reported that there had been
trouble in obtaining the film on
China, therefore times for show
ing the film had to be changed,
and because of this many stu
dents were unable to see it. He
reported the film came to the
school on time, but someone
signed his name to the voucher
without his knowledge and placed
the film in the lobby of the ad
ministration building. No one
knew that the film had come to
the school, and it was only by
accident that the film was found
in time to allow at least a few
students to see it.
It was also reported by the SGA
president that a letter had been
sent to the Soviet Embassy for
the purpose of obtaining some
one to speak on campus, how
ever the embassy had replied

proved over the past years. The
next home game for the Bull

dent body should aid in revers-
^ing the results this time.
