In the midst of charges and
countercharges surrounding
the CUB controveries of the
past ten days, two documents
have stood out at opposite
ends of the spectrum, around
which most people’s beliefs
have been polarizing. These
two are the petition calling for
the removal of top CUB of
ficers and the CUB’s reply.
Unfortunately, since both
documents present claims
radically at variance with one
another. There has been no
independent effort made to
correlate the facts behind the
two papers. This article will
attempt to examine the
evidence over which these
contentions have been made.
Two of the petition’s eight
charges have been ignored by
the CUB. One of these, a
Pertinent to the CUB by
laws situation, the Board
admits operating since the
beginning of theyear without
them, but notes that one
committee was set up on
September 27 and a second on
November 8, due to the non
reporting of the original
group. The LANCE has
learned that the first com
mittee was never given a
specific date by which to
report. Discussions of the
removal of several members
of the Board were held and
only terminated when the
absence of by-laws was
pointed out to the Board.
Business Office print-outs
and figures provided by the
CUB Treasurer show that the
CUB has spent to date, ex
clusive of the film series,
$5209.62. There being $3000
A ROYAL FAMILY: Czar Nicholas II of Russia, his wife and
five children were murdered by the Bolsheviks in 1918
following the Russian Revolution. One dau^ter of the Czar,
Anastosia (far left) is thought by many to have been the sole
survivor, and the woman who claims to be the Grand Duchess
will be visiting St. Andrews November 28.

of Anastasia, Prince
Frederick of Saxe-Altenburg.

pleted a fihn for NBC on “The
Search for Anastasia,” which
will be the topic of the
evening.
The search seeks to
disprove the generally ac
cepted story that the entire
family of Cizar Nicholas II
was murdered during the
Russian Revolution and that,
through almost miraculous
events and great courage,
Anastasia survived the
slaughter, maintaining under
brutal circumstances for
decades, striving to receive
rightful recognition.

criticism of the CUB’s choice
of bands is obviously too
subjective a charge for this
reporter to comment on. The
second alleges that CUB
Chairman Ed Wilson had
promised the Board he would
travel to all the dorms to seek
suggestions from students
and that he did not do this.
CUB Chairman Ed Wilson
explained that he had not
thought it proper for the
Executive Board to devote
part of its answer to a charge
that was directed specifically
at him. “I did meet,” he told
the LANCE, “with most of the
Presidents or Vice-Presidents
of the dorms we were having
problems with. I think we got
solved the problems that we
were having at that time.”
committed or spent for the
movies, $800 for the Dinner-
Dance, and $2000 for the
Spring Fling Weekend,
$11004.62 or 82 percent of the
CUB’s budget has already
been spent or committed.
$2496.38 is what remains to be
allocated. This information
substantiates what the
petition claims; over % of the
budget has been allocated.
Asked by the LANCE about
the CUB’s financial shape.
Chairman Ed Wilson said
today, “With $2,500 left un
committed at this point. I’d
say we’re doing well. When
warmer weather comes, par
ties will be moving outside,
and Farrago will be helping
us pick up the slack on
weekends we don’t have
