Swimmer Glam Bern- was elect- . ed temporary president, and Art Garcia, track nfe. was elected temporary secretary.
Bob Mitchell., AMS president, who headed the meeting, said the group was working for a strong, active organization.
"The fellows will have a strong organization because the club will have much more to offer than just a name.” Mitchell said. “The Let-termans club will have the definite function to assist university n* well as to help in building •pint"
In early April the dub plans a ki^k-off luncheon with all coaches and varsity lettermen invited. At this dinner meeting the constitution am be adopted, end plans for the future of the club will be presented.
Mitchell emphasized that varsity lettermen from all major and minor sporu are invited to join.
The other chief issue to go before the council will concern the admittance of new countries into the UN. It will be Introduced by a proposal to admit Italy. Using this proposal as a bargaining point, the Russian delegation is expected to fight for the admittance of Red China
The Russian delegation to the Security council will be an SC group headed by Mohinder S. Bendi, who will represent Jacob Malik.
Last year's conference was kept in a continuous uproar by tiie antics of delegations from Russia and its satelites. and the same kind of performance is expected at this* conference.
Council to Delve
The Economic and Soc il council will delve into a number of problems, the most important of which will be the Human Rignts covenant. The topic is the object of an intense interest today, particularly among the peoples of Africa and Asia.	.
Technical assistance and its administration in Southeast Asia will be the second question to go before the Economic and Social council.
With the ciose of this discussion, land reform programs will be introduced.
In letters from delegates planning to attend the conference these three issues were those most requested for discussion.
A Bomb Control
Regulation and control of atomic and conventional weapons will be considered by the Political and Security committee. Also on this agenda will be a discussion of a.
United Nations police force. Proposals for an atomic investigating committee and a UN police force are invariably opposed by the Communist block in actual meetings.
This usually brings forth accusations of non-cooperation and poor faith in the UN and its principles from the other delegations.
The Trusteeship committee will probe the questions of self-government and education in trusteeship by UN member nations. Most of the agenda to be dealt with are in Africa, where Belgium and France have large portions of the country under their protection.
Pacific trusteeships and the aspirations of Italian Somaliland for independence are aiso entered in the agenda

Fraternities To Support Fiesta Carnival
A proposal for fraternities to support the YMCA Fiesta day was defeated yesterday dy the Interfratemity council. Fraternity presidents were optimistic as to the success of the Fiesta day because some campus groups involving too many students already have scheduled events for that evening.

Aussie to Tell Of Land Drifts
By the theory of continental drift some geologists contend that South America, Africa and Australia were once part of one great continent.
This theory will be explained by Dr. Kurt Teichert of the University of Melbourne. Australia, at a public lecture in Hancock auditorium, Friday night at 8 p.m.
Sponsored by the Allen Hancock Foundation for Scientific Research, and the geology department, Dr. Teichert's lecture will contain some of the research data gathered in Australia.
Not entirely subscribing to the | continental drift concept, Dr. Teichert will contend that the Indian ocean is probably a great deal older than many geologists think. He be-lieevs it dates back to the beginning ; of geological time about 300 million years ago.
The theory was originated by Al-I fred Wegener, German geophysicist, 30 years ago. He pointed out that the east coast of South America fits into the west coast of Africa as though they had been broken apart about 60 or 80 million years ago.

minated the possibility of having the YM sponsored street dance and carnival on 28th street. The plans called for each fraternity to make a carnival booth not exceeding $20. It would be set up in front of the house and proceeds would go to the YM building fund. The house would keep 20 per cent of the profits.
Miller Speaks
Gus Miller, YM publicity chairman, addressed the feroup saying that three organizations had already pledged their support. He said Row support would be very beneficial in helping to make Fiesta day successful, and that if it was. the ASSC senate might appropriate funds for the building program.
The IFC approved a new constitution, drawn up by a committee headed by Bob Flandrick, Theat Xi. ITie new set of laws contains numerous amendments which were greatly needed and not stipulated in the old constitution, said Flandrick.
New Constitution “All Row athletic events will now be supervised by the IFC and not the URA," he said. “We will now schedule our own events, secure referees, and establish game rules.” he added.
The couijcil, before accepting the revised constitution, approved a proposal which makes a two-thirds vote necessary for expulsion or time suspension of any house from the Row. Imposing of fines and putting fraternities on social probation will be decided by a majority vote.
New Members Two other major points are now in the constitution. Representatives of professional and service fraternities are now members of the IFC. They previously attended meetings, according to Flandrick,'although it was illegal.
Ken Shanks, interfratemity coordinator, will now receive a set sum of $1600 annually from IFC. This amendment drew laughter at the meeting because he is already receiving a sizable amount but it was “illegal” according to the former constitution.
Objectives of IFC For-the first time the constitution states that the IFC has an objective. It reads:
“The object of the IPC shall be, to promote closer social relations

When presented with the title question, “In what direction should religion move?” Bedi said “It ough^ to move toward obscurity.”
In explaining his remark, he said that it does not refer to religion as it should be practiced, but rather as it is practiced all over the world.” “Religion should return to its original premises." he said. “The ide-verted into an all-university func- ology is all right, but its application

A parliamentary brawl, with words as weapons, climaxed the ASSC Senate meeting and left Doug Morgan. Blue Key president, wondering whether his orientation lecture motion had passed or not.
A vote on Morgan’s proposal was being taken Wednesdav night when Parliamentarian Dean Pic’l and \SSC President John \V. Bradley squared away in a verbal battle over parliamentary procedure. The “fight” was called at 11:25 by the senators with a draw being the only decision, according to spectators.
Fradley insists the motion passed, hut Morgan says he will reintroduce it, with minor changes, because of the confusion over the issue.
The proposal was that a lecture a week be added to the Man and Civilization courses to explain extra -curricular activities, history of the university, and private-type university system.
Most of the senators favored the proposal, which they decided would

A provision to earmark donations for a certain charity will be provided. even if it is over the allocation, added Todd. He expected $10,000 to be raised during the drive, Apr. 28 to May 2.

Food Poison TV Subject
Dr. Milo D. Appleman. head of the bacteriology department, will conduct class Saturday night on NBC-TV “Halls of Science” program on the subject of food poisoning.
The 9 to 9:30 p.m. program appearing on channel 4 will be televised from a classroomlike set at Sunset and Vine studios. Several ! “students” will question Dr. Appleman during his lecture.
The lecture and questions will bring to light the important point* of food poisoning and how it can be combated.
Common food poisoning called staph lococci is contamination or ptomaine poisoning r.nd tjie very fatal food poisoning called botulism will be discussed.
Botulism is one type of food spoilage caused by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum which is found chiefly in soil, said Dr. Appleman in a preview of his program.
Clostridium is a rod shaped, spore-forming bacteria that can live without air. It infects canned and jarred food when the canning sterilization process has been done improperly, according to Dr. Appleman.
About 99 per cent of canned foods which are infected with Clostridium are home canned, because the commercial canning companies are forced to abide by rigid government sterilization rules, he said.
