points of the ISA's policy during the course of their meeting yesterday. They were:
1.	Membership in the ISA is open to all independent students, regardless of race, color, or creed.
2.	More social events should be held for independent students which are inexpensive and close to the campus.
3.	More democracy in the student government in relation to propo-trional representation.
4.	Increased cooperation with other student groups, including the National Students organization and the Student Forum group.
5.	A stand on anti-racial discrimination in all school events, including membership in organizations and participation in school athletics.

Polyzoides Warns Of Rift With Russ
by Ed Adler
Possibility of a “sharp clash” between the United States and Russia was predicted yesterday by Adamantios Th. Polyzoides, lecturer in international relations, in discussing Britain’s recent proposal for American help to Greece.
According to current statements, England wants the United States to take over the task
of directing and supervising the reorganization of Greece and defray the whole cost of such organization.
Reviewing the background of the proposal, Mr. Polyzoides declared
Declaring that the ASSC ; constitution is the “supreme ; law of the land,” Milt Dobkin, rules committee chairman, last night told the student senate that Dusty Rhode I; was improperly elected to the I College of Commerce presi-i I I dency.
The senate subsequently
voted to call an election for a new commerce president Mar. 21 and advised the commerce council to draw up a rev ised constitution. The present constitution, according to Dobkin, was assembled by Joe Holt, commerce president in 1944. from “memory and general knowledge” after a previous document had been lost.
This constitution was not submitted to the senate, and few have ever seen it, said Dobkin.

Solons Approve Fund Resolution
by Jerry Maher
In one of the most progressive moves yet made in stu-1 dent body government, the ASSC senate last night favored, with only one di'senting vote, the general principles of a I resolution introduced by Jim Mitchell, president, which ' would grant control of ASSC funds to a board of student finance, responsible only to the senate.
Tentative approval of the general principle of the nett plan was voiced by Dr. Neil Warren, dean of men, who told I senate members Robert Fisher, financial vice-president, had also expressed satisfaction with these principles.
“Students should have a voice in the control of student funds,” Dean Warren quoted Mr. Fisher as saying.
Empowered to prepare a semiannual budget and required to submit monthly financial reports to the senate, the board would be composed of three students, including a chairman, the director of student and alumni affairs, and the ASSC president with vode only in case of a tie. In addition, two faculty members selected by the senate and an --—■——-j accountant would hold nonvoting

Crystal Ball Contestants Await Awards
The names of six winning contestants chosen from more than 200 entries in the College of Architecture open competition in “Ideas for the Decoration of the Crystal Ball” are under lock and key in Dean Gallion's office and will not be announced until next week, it was learned yesterday.
Shrouded in secrecy since last Saturday, the decision of the judges will be disclosed at the College of Architecture assembly which will be held 3 p.m. Wednesday afternoon, Mar. 12, at 102 Harris hall.
The motif of the deco. ators used at the Crystal Ball, a*1, all-university dance at Riviera Country club April 19. will folio# the design submitted by the winning contestant.
Tlie studeiit council of the College of Architecture, which met yesterday. has not yet reached an agreement on the nature of the “grand prize.”
Judges of the competition were Arthur B. Gallion. dean of the College of Architecture; Francis de Erdely. assistant professor of fine arts; Walter L. Wending, president of the student council; Esthprann MacMurray. secretary-treasurer of the student council; Bill Rudolph, publicity chairman; Bruce Sellery. 1st year; Tom Gould. 2nd year
ate that Dusty Rhode has formally resigned from the council, and the resignation has been accepted.
Citing the reasons for Rhodes election, von Buelow said that their constitution states that in case of the inability of any officer to perform his duties, the legislative body of the College of Commerce should elect another to take his place. Rhode was qualified for the office of president and was elected unanimously. he said.
NOT RATIFIED
The new constitution was not submitted to the student senate, it was not signed by the Dean of the College of Commerce, and it was not ratified by the studente in the College of Commerce. The only name appearing on the document is that of Joe Holt, said Dobkin.
The new constitution states that elective officers shall be elected by the students in the college, but it does not name the posts which are to be elective.
The College of Commerce president was elected from the council, not by a general election.

“Engineering week starts Monday, Mar. 10. Beard growing among engineers has already begun,” said Blumenthal, “although there have been some conflicting announcements concerning these facts. Students were advised to start beard-growing this week because one week was considered insufficient to obtain a good growth.

Nominations for the campus “dream man” will be made by each sorority and dorm on campus, and proceeds from the votes, costing cent apiece, will go to the fund which aids foreign university and college students who have lost everything in the war.

Most sweeping legislation yet ui-troduced in the senate this year, the resolution directs the ASSC constitutional committee, now engaged in writing a new constitution. to include in that document the general principles of a plan giving control over the allocation of specifically student funds. According to Mitchell, this would exclude revenue from athletics and certain other activities.
•EXERCISE CAUTION’
Dean Warren, speaking for Dean Helen Hall Moreland, Mr. Fisher, and himself, warned senate members to exercise caution in jumping from “no control to complete controls.” but indicated the three members of the administration were “favorably disposed to the plan.”
“A budget should be made public in order that anyone authorized by the senate may have access to it,” Dean Warren declared. “Similarly. expenditures and income should also be made public.”
The resolution met little opposition from the floor, but when. Dean Warren objected to a clause directing the constitutional committee to include the proposed article verbatim in the new constitution, debate centered around the inelasticity of the proposal.
COMMITTEE SUGGESTED “I would suggest the appointment of a committee to meet with representatives of the administration for further study into a solution,” Dean Warren said. I cannot approve. and I am sure the chancellor would not approve, the proposal as it stands now, though I am in complete agreement with the general principles involved.’*
Dean Warren further indicated he thought the senate would be going from one extreme to the other if the resolution were passed in to to. since neither the experience nor the information needed in handling financial affairs is now available to the students.
SKELETON OUTLINE Mitchell replied that the proposal was only a skeleton outline of a plan for eventual control and that the matter would be solved more extensively in by-laws.
“We want to get away from groping in the dark as we have had tc. do in the past,” Mitchell asserts “The measure is not meant to binc: the constitutional committee excep: in a general way. They are to study the plan, incorporate it intr the constitution, and report the final result to this body.”
When the question was raised as to what constituted “ASSC funds. Arnold Eddy, director of student and alumni activities, replied that hi-, office was responsible for Ml student body income other thnn that coming from athletics.
