Minority Faction To Plan Retorts By JOE SALTZMAN Daily Trojan City Editor Several ASSC Senate members, reeling from their first look at President’s Wally Karabian’s “new government,” left last night’s Senate meeting prepared to fight for their legislative survival by planning arguments to support their very existence. Parliamentarian Gary Dubin. chairman of the [»residential committee responsible for thp 16-page constitution, read the full document to 31 voting senators, who for the most part, enthusiastically w'elcomed thp I complete revision. Rejection? i At the next regular SenaJe I meeting, tentatively scheduled ! for Dec. 2. the constitution will be debated and then rejected or ratified. The main complaints of the “new government'’ came from senators worried about adequate representation, centralized power. a limited popular vote and sel f-preservation. Leader of the senatorial opposition w as Senator - at - Large Gene Brooks. Along with senators-at-large Harold Fong and Kay Stelten-kamp. he said that the new constitution was not to ’nis faction s liking because it was too larsre and too limited in its representation. Too Much “It gives too much power to the newly created Executive Board and has too much faith in the student body president s ability to speak for the student GARY DUBIN . . . Senate Parliamentarian Iran Receives Academic Aid From Trojans By .11 DY FRIEDMAN The entire country of Iran is benefitting from an SC-sponsored program to upgrade public administration at the University of Tehran. Dr. John D. Gerletti. associate professor of public administration. told the Faculty Club yesterday. “Through this program the curriculum, students, materials and faculty of the University of Tehran's public administration school are being supervised and modernized by SC faculty members and American administrators." he said. And through producing better public administrators in the university. Iran will soon feel the benefit of more competent, well-trained public leaders, Dr. Gerletti said. Administration Adviser During a five-year program at the University of Tehran. Dr. Gerletti has been public administrator adviser to the director of the Institute of Administration Affairs at the university. The institute has chosen exceptional students to train both in Jran and at SC through a foreign student "t hird-partv ron- t.ract" policy. In addition, the American administrators in Iran have significantly modernized the teaching and faculty organization of the university. Other successes of the pro- , gram at the university include j a unification of the faculty and ; the organization of a consulting ! agency-for selecting personnel. body,” he said. Brook's arguments against fhis new constitution are primarily against the new concepts involved in the revised student : government. Radical Concepts No one will deny that Dubin's 12-Article document has seven new and radical student government concepts: 1. A presidential veto nevpr before in existence. 2. New student representation | through fields-ol-study senator-: tal delegates thereby eliminating the present senafors-at-large and service groups' direct legislation techniques. 3. Strong executive officers embodied in the nine-man Executive Cabinet. 4. A shorter general election ballot. 5. Central control of all university activities and organizations. 6. Grass roots participation in the Senate through a bigger general ASSC Senate. 7. The final break of row domination on the Senate. Sorp Spot« These points, emphasized by Dubin in his official ■itatpni'-nt-about the constitution, arp defi ni ip sore spots to the "opposition" to the new government. A fuller explanation of the constitution can be found on page 2 in today's Daily Trojan. President Karabian said that his office would be open today and tomorrow to discuss any proposed changes or amendments. (Continued on Page '!)

Troy to Keep Federal Plan After Harvard-Yale Protest Vale and Harvard Universities teamed u.p yesterday to withdraw from the federal student loan program because of its required loyalty oath, but SC loan officials have given no indication that they will protest or withdraw from the program. Capt. John C. Culver, director of SC’s student loan program, reported that he accepted the loyalty oaths and that the Yale-Harvard protest did not concern SC. Under the National Defense Act of 19.ï£. thp federal government annually provides thp university w i t h approximately $250.000 in the foi m of f»uden( loans. Students applying for these loans are required to swear they do not believe in, belong to, or support “any organization that believes in or teachees the over-i throw of the United States gov-! ernment by force or violence or by an illegal or unconstitutional method.” Harvard President Nathan M. Pusey declared this to be a "misguided affidavit of disbelief.” Yale President A. Whilnev i Griswold said his university would mak«- nn Hi'thpi comm!*- ments for loan^ under thc ac1 11 long as the “negative affidavit'* is required in addition to the oath of support for the U.S. Constitution. The federal loans are specifically designed for, but not restricted to, entering freshmen requiring financial assistance. Culver explained. Students must have outstanding grades, and ihose majoring in education, engineering, science. math and modern lan-gtiagp* are ^iv'•n firs1 consideration, he ¿»dried.

New student representation | through fields-ol-study senator-: tal delegates thereby eliminating the present senafors-at-large and service groups' direct legislation techniques. 3. Strong executive officers embodied in the nine-man Executive Cabinet. 4. A shorter general election ballot. 5. Central control of all university activities and organizations. 6.

Troy to Keep Federal Plan After Harvard-Yale Protest Vale and Harvard Universities teamed u.p yesterday to withdraw from the federal student loan program because of its required loyalty oath, but SC loan officials have given no indication that they will protest or withdraw from the program. Capt. John C. Culver, director of SC’s student loan program, reported that he accepted the loyalty oaths and that the Yale-Harvard protest did not concern SC. Under the National Defense Act of 19.ï£. thp federal government annually provides thp university w i t h approximately $250.000 in the foi m of f»uden( loans. Students applying for these loans are required to swear they do not believe in, belong to, or support “any organization that believes in or teachees the over-i throw of the United States gov-! ernment by force or violence or by an illegal or unconstitutional method.” Harvard President Nathan M. Pusey declared this to be a "misguided affidavit of disbelief.” Yale President A. Whilnev i Griswold said his university would mak«- nn Hi'thpi comm!*- ments for loan^ under thc ac1 11 long as the “negative affidavit'* is required in addition to the oath of support for the U.S. Constitution. The federal loans are specifically designed for, but not restricted to, entering freshmen requiring financial assistance. Culver explained. Students must have outstanding grades, and ihose majoring in education, engineering, science. math and modern lan-gtiagp* are ^iv'•n firs1 consideration, he ¿»dried. |
