I (This i« Ihe *econ,| in a *erie* «f f,M,r
article* explaining aiui Interpreting the ■ new ASSC constitution).
No other single article in the nev j ASSC constitution which the stu-I dent body will vote upon Thurs -j day apd Friday has resulted in ! more argument, sub-surface hard ! feelings, and difficulty of compromise than article V, that establish-, ing the voting members of the ASSC senate.
When reported out of committee by Chairman Alf Harrison, the arci-cle was significant for at least two changes in the present constitution | —the removal of voting seats for the Interfratemity and Panhellenic j councils, independent and veterans representatives, and, for the first • time since 1928, the inclusion of senators-at-large on a quantitative ! basis.
DIVERGENT OPINIONS
Constitutional committee hearings quickly brought out the existence ot divergent opinions on the matter oi removal of the four seats mentioned above, as well as those of class and college presidents.
President Jim Mitchell, in his report to the senate, then inserted a clause calling for their retention, and efforts of the minority group to deteat it were of no avail before the superior united strength of Mitchell's confreres.
Still lurking in the background, however, was the red-hot issue of the election of senators-at-large by the Hare system ot proportiom.1 representation. By this system, voters are required to indicate their wills in the order of choice, thus assuring minority groups a voice in the government.
REPRESENTATION
It was at this point that Milt Dobkin. junior class president., brought forth his minority report which would require the election of nine senators-at-large by the Hare system. The result was Wednesday night's imbroglio in which three votes had to be taken before the constitution passed. On the first vote P. R. \fas eliminated, but the third and final vote found it carrying by a count of 13-5.
As it stands, the article provides representation for the president, vice-president, and secretary of the ASSC: the presidents of AWS and AMS; the presidents of the four classes, the Colleges of Letters, Arts, and Sciences, Engineering, Commerce. Pharmacy. Music. Architecture. International Relations. Interfraternity and Panhellenic councils; veterans and independent students;
and senators-at-large.
PRIMARY FUNCTIONS
It set up as the primary function I of college officers the coordination of college activities with those ot the ASSC. Senators-at-large are required to initiate legislation per- j taining to financial and political I matters of the ASSC as their pn-l mary function.	I

Vets Offered Dental Care
Candidacy Requisites For Election Listed
Recent rumors blaming military K-paration centers for failing to brief veterans thoroughly on discharge benefits, particularly dental treatment, have been explained by Charles Martin. VA contact representative, who says discharge centers are only partially at fault.
Admitting he was not told of the Jrenefits of the dental bill at the time of his discharge, Martin stated that although many discharge centers may be negligent, not all of them are.
He added that notices of the bill, providing for complete dental treatment to veterans who were not in need of it prior to entering the service, had been placed in newspaper. and that an article had appeared in a December Daily Trojan.
These benefits, started in July. 1JH5. include all phases of dental work. In most cases, veterans who have been out of the service a year or less can establish service connection and thereby receive treatment at government expense.
According to ’Martin, all a veteran need to do to receive these benefits is to take a copy of his discharge paper to the Veterans administration. 10th and Broadway, Room 1026. He warns, however, that ’eterans who have been discharged for more than a year will have a difficult time proving their teeth were in need of repair during their time in the service.
