“Then we would have something 'efinite to work on before the Sen-meeting,” he said.
UNRUFFLED PADGETT Padgett was unruffled. In con-•rast, to his earlier charge that “I ave a hard time getting coopera-on from the administration,” he said that he sincerely believed in the uselessness of the information and would defend his stand at all times.
He scoffed at claims that he is using the "discriminatory clause” as a political football.
‘Let s clear up this ‘moral issue— political issue’ business by bringing the matter to a vote and deciding it once and for all,” he said. “I haven't been the one that has been delaying action on it.”
Davis was confident that the motion would be voted on at next week's meeting.
“Padgett will ask that it be taken off the table and voted upon,” he said. “As presiding officer of the Senate, I can’t stop him and I wouldn’t if I could."

Padgett Shuns CandidacyTalk, Tips Unity Aim
by Don Moyer
Big, determined Bob Padgett, | who is inclined to say what he thinks, turned a neat trick yester- j day and played coy when asked about the possibility of his can- j didacy on the Unity ticket for ASSC president.
Padgett, a member of 13P’s steering committee, hedged when any ' mention was made of his aims as a presidential candidate, but he ) spoke freely about Unity's platform for the May election.
“The party will seek the administration’s recognition of student maturity and ability to make decisions for themselves. NSA, in so many words,” Padgett said.
“Racial a.:d religious discrimination probably will be on the Unity ticket. It is being called a political move now. Politics in the ASSC Senate are responsible,” Padgett said.
“I made a motion that the Senate recommend the removal of race-religion questions from SC entrance applications and the like. Senators voted to table the motion," Padgett said. “That made it a political issue.”
“Whether or not the race-religion issue is called political is unimportant. Having the questions on SC questionnaires is an insult to the university. Unity will campaign for their removal,” Padgett added.
Unity’s steering committee is scheduled to meet today at 1 p.m.

Row politicians will determine the future of the Elections Primary committee today at 3 in the Delta Tau Delta House.

“I’m not going into any organization where the vote is stacked against me,” Sig Ep Ralph Townsend had said in regard to patching up Row disunity.
MOTION FAILED
Last month Delta Sig Bob Dickey proposed that candidates in the Row primary swear that they would not enter the general ASSC elections it defeated. The motion failed to pass.
Wednesday, Ed Vierheilig announced his candidacy with the provision that Row office-seekers agree to Dickey’s stipulation.

UNCERTAIN POLITICOS
Row politicos agreed but were uncertain as to the ability of any man, house, or group to prevent defeated candidates from filing in the gen-
In an attempt to obligate defeated candidates to desist from further activity, it has been suggested to EPC that house delegates “support” winners. Penalty for failing to campaign, actively or passively, for the Row’s primary victor was set at suspension from EPC, but it is generally accepted that this is not too effective a curb.
Caucus agreement seems to be the only sure remedy, and with Row politicos brought together for the first time in a year, obesrvers see the possibility of a “moral check” and a watchful kind of Row unity.
Names of Row primary candidates must be submitted at today’s EPC meeting. Primary will be held Apr. 12-13.
Piano Recital Lists Masters
A program of 18th century music will be presented in Hancock auditorium tomorrow night. Some piano compositions will be played by John Gillespie, teaching assistant in the School of Music.

The recital will begin at 8:30 p.m.
Math Students To Hear Proof
The second lecture of the current mathematics colloquium being conducted by Dr. Ralph S. Phillips will be given tomorrow, 4:30 p.m., 105 j Bridge.
“Topological Proof Existence The- | orems for Differential Equations" 1 is the subject of the series, and presents a new approach to the problems of analysis.
Use of topological proof theorems will be stressed in the lectures. The use of geometric theorems in solving the problem is a new approach to the field of analysis problems : which is 40 years old.
Fixed points and the index of mapping theorems to differential j equations in analysis problems will be the application used by Phillips.

Row Will Consider EPC Status Today by John Eccleston Row politicians will determine the future of the Elections Primary committee today at 3 in the Delta Tau Delta House. Hinging on the outcome of today’s deliberations will be the fate of the revamped EPC constitution and EPC itself. “Either EPC will become an active force or it will become considerably less effective than it*. has been" ASSC president Johnny votgd 242 ^ include such ^ artlcle Davis said yesteraay. .

A. &. Raubenheimer Bducatiflfcal vice-jireiidftLl One of the nine passengers on the overdue Chamberlain-C.ianlon treasure-hunting ship is SC student John A. Targos. The expedition, searching for treasure in the Cocos Island area off Panama was four days overdue yesterday, after leaving Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Officials at Cocos, destination of the craft, planned an air search tor the vessel, believed to have engine l trouble. in nonmember houses have given notice that they will be present for the showdown. All houses on the Row have agreed that a divided vote is a guarantee of independent victory. They 01*3.1 elections, have not agreed on one candidate to represent the Row and have expressed the fear of trickery and lack of faith. “I’m not going into any organization where the vote is stacked against me,” Sig Ep Ralph Townsend had said in regard to patching up Row disunity. MOTION FAILED Last month Delta Sig Bob Dickey proposed that candidates in the Row primary swear that they would not enter the general ASSC elections it defeated. The motion failed to pass. Wednesday, Ed Vierheilig announced his candidacy with the provision that Row office-seekers agree to Dickey’s stipulation. Thursday, EPC about-faced and UNCERTAIN POLITICOS Row politicos agreed but were uncertain as to the ability of any man, house, or group to prevent defeated candidates from filing in the gen- In an attempt to obligate defeated candidates to desist from further activity, it has been suggested to EPC that house delegates “support” winners. Penalty for failing to campaign, actively or passively, for the Row’s primary victor was set at suspension from EPC, but it is generally accepted that this is not too effective a curb. Caucus agreement seems to be the only sure remedy, and with Row politicos brought together for the first time in a year, obesrvers see the possibility of a “moral check” and a watchful kind of Row unity. Names of Row primary candidates must be submitted at today’s EPC meeting. Primary will be held Apr. 12-13.
