Collegiate Budget
Approved
By SPENCER SMITH
At its last regular business
meeting, the SGA voted 12-5 in
favor of approving the proposed
budget for the “Collegiate” this
year. The Oct. 20 meeting in
cluded several items of business
but the “Collegiate” provided
the main topic for discussion
which lasted about 45 minutes.
Although the purpose of the
discussion was to approve the
budget for the paper, Fred
Claridge, editor of the
“Collegiate,” and Mike Walker,
associate editor, used the time to
reply to criticisms that had been
made regarding the content of
the paper.
The major points brought out
in the criticism of the paper
were the lack of news involving
campus organizations, that the
paper had become too “literary”
for a campus newspaper, and
that the interests of the student
body were not being served by
the overall content of the paper.
The editors responded to
questions raised in the meeting
giving reasons for their new
approach. “We felt that the
limitations of weekly
publication, rather than daily or
bi-weekly publication, hindered
our value as a strictly news-
oriented paper,” Claridge said
after the meeting.
Ricky Clayton, president of
the SGA, and Tommy Mercer,
vice-president, smoothly han
dled the meeting, directing the
discussion which became fairly
intense at times.

Candidates ’ Sons Help in
Campaigning
Hy RUSS S.MITH
(CPS) — “I want to see a job
for those who want to work ... a
bedpan for those who want to
sleep... and Southern accents we
can all understand ...,” joked
Chip Carter, 23 year old son of
Jimmy Carter, at an appearance
in Seattle, Washington, last
month.
At the other end of the country,
President Ford’s son Jack was
winding up another sixteen-hour
session of pumping hands,
making economic statements
and humoring small-time
politicians, only to face the same
grueling schedule the next day.
In an election year that has
focused on personalities rather
than gut issues, it’s no surprise
that the families of the
respective candidates are
playing such a prominent role in
the quadrennial political circus.
Quite a heady spot for a young
adult to be in, but it’s not all a
lark for these campaign-weary
VIP’S.
“I just moved into the White
House because I had to have a
place to live,” Jack Ford ex
plained to a Baltimore Sun
reporter recently. “The White
House is worth doing once, but it
gets like seeing the same movie
over and over.”
Ford, 24, has mixed feelings
about being thrown into the
political whrilwind. He enjoyed
squiring Bianca Jagger and
entertaining George Harrison at
the White House but complained
of distorted media coverage.
While indifferent to living in
the White House, Ford would
miss his father’s presidency,
“because I like the confidence of
knowing where this country is
going to be.”
The three adult Carter
children. Jack, Jeff and Chip,
have been working for four
years on the Carter bandwagon,
enlisting wives, relatives and

Social science depiirtmeni
students at Atlantic Christian
College will be conducting a
telephone survey Tuesday,
Wixinesday and Thursday nights

party affiliation if any, their
present choices for pri*sident of
the United Slates and governor
of the State of North Carolina,
and what factors prompted them
in making those choices.
Dr. Capps indicated the latter
questions may deal with the
impiict the presidential debates
may hiive hiid on the voter. Also,
undecidtxi voters will be asked
what factors hiwe caused them
to list themselves as undecided
at this point.
The survey is a joint project of
students and faculty members in
the social science department at
ACC, Dr. Capps emphasized.
