Hare Plan No Good -Wildman
by Jim Longcrier
Paul Wildman expressed his approval of the constitutional amendment which would do away with the Hare proportional representation provision of the new constitution and expressed his disapprov- j al of Joe Flynn’s proposal to; dispense with registration of j voters for all ASSC general! elections.
“There is no doubt in my mind that the Hare system disfranchises a large portion of the voters. It is better, in my mind, that a man should \ote for the man he wants to i vote for.’’ the ASSC president said, j He refused to elaborate.
Wildman also came out against ! Flynn's proposed amendment to : Section 2. Article VIII of the new constitution which would allow any ‘ student to vote w it h o u t going ‘ through registration. The only re-i quirement for voting under Flynn’s i amendment would be possession of ; the student body identification card.
Flynn answered Wildman’s ; charges with a vigorous defense of ! his own proposal and countered with a claim that with numbered

Wdlie Cheers; Wamp Appears
The newest edition of the SC Wampus rolled off the presses early yesterday when the Daily ! Trojan was going to bed at 4 a.m. The newest claim that the Wampus has over the DT is that this great new humer magazine has not yet lost a single piece of copy.
Al Hix, erstmhile journalist, and Art Buchwald. proclaimed this next week to be “Willie the Wamp'' week. »n honor of the moscot of the spicy, humorous magazine.
The editor of the Wampus told the DT early this morning that the latest edition has been toned down to 1-he degree which SC coeds insisted upon having.
“There are no longer any risque cartoons or loaded jokes, but the humor would be pleasing to any matronly church-goer.’’ Hix said.
Other comments heard after some of the Trojans had been given a quick preview ranged “drop dead’’ to a deep purple blush. One lovely little coed was reportedly contacting her lawyer, asking him what constituted libel. Her name was not given.

“Those who are opposed to my proposal would be the first to prac-I tlce crooked methods during election time. I put the proposal to a i vote of the junior council and it was j unanimously approved.” Flynn said.
1 Flynn's council is composed of 14 organized students and 15 non-orgs.
The junior class president also put the Hare proposal to a vote in his council.
“The council voted overwhelmingly to keep the new constitution without killing the Hare provision. The actual vote was 15-7 against Lyddon's amendment, and since the junior council is one of the most representative on campus, it reflects the true feeling of 16.000 other Trojans," 'Flynn concluded.

Flynn Proposal Passes Trial
chev had ever dancec
The voting of the junior class president in the senate from now on will be influenced by the junior class council as a result of the new system inaugurated by the council last Friday.
The council will act as a sounding-board for the issues before the senate. Joe Flynn, junior class president, will ask for a discussion of these issues at council meetings.
The results of the discussions will not force the president to vote against his own personal judgment on the matters concerned. The council merely will act in an advisory capacity.
A vote on the question of proportional representation resulted in 15 members voting for the reten-
tion of the Hare syff*m. and 7 against.
A unanimous vote ^{-.s cast in favor of streamlining uie present system of voting. The new system would do away with .the present method of registration and students would be able _o use their ASSC cards as regis-'- ’ion per-mite.
At the next meeting tof the junior council there is to ;<** an election of a new secretar- *reasurer. and also an executive member at large.
A suggestion was 'nnde that something be done before the next election to stimulate student interest in the election campaigns and bring a big turnout at, the
tarst time together.
But D. Bvoofc*. A*neat prestoem. said. “We were oieaaed to play hoe to a record-oreaking assemblage of more than 500 loyal Trojans. The spirit this year * wonder fed’
; voting booths. More action on this i issue was indicated for the next j council meeting.
An orientation committee was appointed to make plans for a freshman and new student onen-I tation program to start next Feb.
Ginnv Kadau was named chair-| man and George Cox and Fred I Baldwin will serve on the committee with her.
Nancy Winstanley was appointed i to work on the assembly committee. Barbara Schick will be chairman of the social committee, and help-! ing her Ed Smith and Clayton ! Metzler. This committee will handle the social affairs of the junior class and are now working on a t Sadie Hawkins day dance.
