WASHINGTON - - With so
many problems which press for
attention, Congress is not
prone to give serious
consideration to any measure
estabiishing the iega!
machinery to deai with a
, Constitutions) Convention
untii it must. That time,
however, seems near at hand.
On May 1, Iowa became the
33rd State to request a
convention to amend the
Constitution. With several of
I [the remaining 17 State
' fcgisiatures stiii in session, and
DeiawarP's iegisiature
scheduled to convene in
^ October, there is a possibiiity
^'that the 34th State may caii
for such a convention soon.
Congress wiii then be faced
with the necessity of carrying
out the provisions of the
.^Constitution in respect to a
, pever - before used
amendment process.
Recognizing that the need
for the establishment of
orderly procedures relating to
such a cat! might be needed, I
introduced a biii in the 90th
Congress to provide ruies
governing the caii and
operation of such a national
convention. No action was
taken on my measure at that
session. Again, on January
24th of this year, 1 introduced
legislation to provide the rules
to govern such a convention
On June 12th, my proposai, S.
623, was approved by the
Senate Subcommittee on
Separation of Powers. It is now
awaiting action by the Senate
Judiciary Committee.
The need for such
legislation is pressing. In the
event another legislature
requests Congress to call such a
convention, there is no existing
machinery with which to deal
with the questions that wouid
From The Coach's Resk
MtLT BARTON
: * Time works wonders! He
first few sessions of footbai!
work-outs were most
depressing ones to me, but the
-pew week has reaiiy brought
'new iife to our team. The time
end drudgery of nothing but
. Conditioning driiis is now being
;' ppiced up with Mocking and
'^ackiing. Our kids have reaiiy
been waiting for this. We are
fast on the way to getting in
shape; we may not win a game,
but we wii! be in shape!
' In our hitting driiis the
moment of truth has arrived
for some of our young piayers.
. Sureiy they must fee) iike the
* matador facing a wiid buii. In
. * this case, we want to find out
^ what spirit, strength, and
determination these kids have
concealed under their uniforms
and pads. The answer to the
question I have heard many
-. times was revealed on Tuesday
* afternoon. . .yes, Dee Dee
- Wood can be very destructive
; * when he gets mad on the
footbaii fieid. He couid weii be
AH conference materia! if he
keeps up the good work. He
jias worked down to a mere
,220 pounds and is seeking
^mnpinymeat in our da&naive
'-line.
* Since the defensive teams
always get off to a faster
-. beginning, we have been
' - putting most of our emphasis
*Ipn our offense. Our defense
wili not reaembie the Red
Defense of iast year since we
do not have the speed or taii,
rangy boys this year. Gosh,
how we wiii miss Wayne
Parton, Hughie Jones,
Raymond Cochran, and Jerry
Jenkins. . .everyone of them,
tremendous defensive iinemen.
We are beissed with big,
heavy, mean feiiows for the
defensive iine this year. I hope
to use a two-piatoon system so
as many of our boys as possibie
can get into the games. As
jt qiways, some kids wHi be going
both ways. Leonard Parton is
iean and mean this season nd
enjoys occasions! contact. He
is the tightest of the STOP
team at 165 pounds. His
. company may include Jim
-Bigwitch at 220 pounds, Dee
Dee Wood at 220, and Mike
Ciapsaddie at 205. The
defensive secondary is not
definite, but one thing is, it
wiii be fast.
Three veteran iettermen
have been very impressive as
!
iinebackers. BiM Adams is a
machine of devastation. Aiva
Crowe asks no quarter and Biii
Adams is a machine of
devastation. Aiva Crowe asks
no quarter and gives none.
Vemie Lee is quick and sure.
Assistant coach Dick Ensiey
is the best anyone couid ask
for. He is doing a reai good job
and thinks "Winning
Footbaii." Some of our "oid
hands" drop by occasionaiiy to
heip with specific positions.
The ninth graders have
found that the days of giory
are far behind them and now
face the transition of being the
smaii fid* in a big pond. There
is good stock on this unit, too.
John Myers at quarterback is
bound to be a big iad if he
grows to match those feet!
Mike Tisdaie (178 pounds) and
Joe Crisp (204 pounds) are
good anchors on any iine.
Hank Hardin is coming on
strong at guard. Todd Napier
and Mark Richmond are
making strong bids for starting
positions in the backfieid.
We stiii need more kids to
come out for the squad, in a
schoqf of this size we shouid
hatn at boys out for
footbalLWe are oniy haif that
number! Our strength depends
on a building program that
keeps feeding good stock to
the varsity. What has happened
to the 10th graders? Surety
there are mote than nine whose
parents wiii eit them piay. A
weak class iike this can oniy
speil disaster two years from
now.

govern such a ca!). Moreover,
there are many fears about
such a convention, and the
atrivat of a 34th resoiution
caihng upon Congress to issue a
convention cat! coutd bring on
a' protonged debate to deiay or
ignore such a cat). This, in my
jbdgment, couid weaken the
doctrine of 'separation of
powers" by thwarting the
mandate of the Constitution
which permits two methods of
amending the Constitution.
These coequai methods are by
amendments adopted by
two-thirds of the members of
Congress, and ratified by
three-fourths of the States; and
by apptication of the
iegisiatures of two-thirds of the
States to Congress which shai!
caii a convention for proposing
amendments and the
ratification thereof by
three-fourths of the States.
The impetus for the
petitions by the States who
now urge a constitution!
convention appears to be the
decisions of the Supreme Court
rendered in the reapportion
ment cases and the subsequent
controversy which these
decisions prompted. Congress
has thus far taken no action
which assures that an
amendment wi!! be submitted
to the States to overrute these
reapportionment decisions,
aithough the Senate came ciose
to achieving the necessary
two-thirds vote on the 1965
and 1966 resoiutions offered
on this subject. Now, 33 State
iegisiatures have used the
aiternative method to caii for
amendment of the
Constitution.
The measure which I have
introduced in no way seeks to
resoive the substantive aspects
of apportionment of state
iegisiatures. Instead, it deais
with convention petitions,
their effective period, their
transmittai to Congress, their
rescission, the Congressionai
caii, the seiection of delegates,
the seiection of the presiding
officer, the manner of voting,
the proposat of amendments,
and the termination of such a
body. My biii would estabiish
