Hollinger Brief Cited
The brief, deliveied by Hol-lingcr the last day of the ses-| sion. sought the court's censure of Egypt for the latter's restriction of Israeli shipping through the Suez Canal.
Hollinger. a pre-law student at Troy, based his arguments on the 1888 Treaty of Constan-inople which stated the Canal must remain free and open to ships of all countries in time of peace and war. His Egyptian opponent, a student at The University of Washington and also a pre-law major, alleged that Egypt possessed the right to j close the Canal to Israeli shipping because Egv pt was “only J to protect the freedom
Inaugurals, Review Of 57 Senate Year Slated for May 19

Students who feel the need for vacational counseling: may sign up now for the Group V ocational Testing Program to be held May 4.
The cost of the tests is $14, and testing will begin at 9 a.m. and last until 4 p.m., according to Dr. Alfred Jacobs, associate professor of psychology at SC. The tests will be given at the Psychological Service Center.
• The test is limited to 50 students, and students may reserve a place at the test by calling EX. 515 or 516
The test is divided into three main sections—aptitudes, interests, and temperament. These sections are then broken down into special sections such as numerical aptitude which is he.’pful in science and business and special aptitude which is helpful in architecture, art, engineering and medicine.
The temperament section includes sections concerning the students personality. This aids in the selection of jobs by telling the student whether he likes the type of job that requires sociability, aggressiveness or tact.
The student is given the results and is able to talk over any individual problems with his counselor. Each student has his own counselor. In some cases there is a need for additional tests. These will be provided by the department. _

Presidential Timbers
Larry Sipos and Dennis Fag-erhult, the two hopefuls for the ASSC presidency, will meet head-on at the lirst forum to discuss and debate the upcoming elections.
‘ We aie also hoping to have Maryanne Hamatt and Joan Sparling, the candidates for secretary, there also,’’ Baffa added.
The 19-year-old political science major said that the meeting had originally been called for today, but that it couldn't be held because it conflicted with the election orientation meeting for all candidates.

Shift Toward Religion Seen On Campus
Renewed Interest In Worship Taken By U.S. Students
BY JOYCE LAMBEAU
Although the religious renaissance. which has been focused on the Harvard University campus, is not so prevalent on the West Coast as it is in the East, nevertheless it is evident here on our own campus, according to Chaplain Clinton A. Neyman.
Chaplain Neyman was sptdK-ing in reference to the article. “Religion in Our Colleges,” in the April 22 issue of Newsweek magazine emphasizing the dominating religious trend in American colleges and universities.
Student Seek God
Newsweek says:
“In usprecedented numbers, (students) are seeking God, not only in the faith of their fathers and in conventional church vvor-i ship but in intellectual self-appraisals that cry out for a deity to manifest his relevance to a complex modern world.
“Responding to the trend, colleges and universities have been cramming their catalogues with ! such courses as 'The Psychology of Religion,’ ‘The Life and Teachings of Jesus’ and ‘Beginning Hebrew.’ Two-thirds of all stale universities now give academic credit for religion courses. Chapel Attendance Booming “In addition to this hunger for spiritual knowledge, today's col-' lege students also want to wor-| ship God. Voluntary chapel at-! tendance is booming.
“At Northwestern University j twice as many boys and girls ! now attend the university chapel j as did a decade ago. At the Uni- j versity of Michigan 5000 of a total 22,000 students go to I church at least once a week.” j Chaplain Speaks 1 Chaplain Neyman*of our own 1 . university said:
“On the SC campus there has been a change in the religious 1 program. Due to student de- j mand, we have established the Sunday worship services, which we have not had since the university was small.
“This does not necessarily mean that we’re being conventional about it,” Neyman said. “The w'hole thing is an after-math of two national disturb-asces, namely World Wars I and II. These wars showed us that something was basically wrong with our religious awareness.
Additional Costs Seen as Reason For New Jump
Tuition at SC will be raised $2 per unit in the fall for full-time undergraduate students, the board of trustees has announced.
The increased tuition is needed to provide additional operational funds.
Similar increases will affect students in the Schools , of Dentistry, Medicine, Law and Pharmacy.
This decision will mean that the average undergradu-j ate will pay $27 per unit instead of S25. A year at SC will cost about $837 instead of $775.
Reasons Told
Among the reasons for the increase given by the board of trustees are faculty requirements, higher fixed costs for equipment, materials and supplies, Social Security costs, utilities, and pensions.
Part-time undergraduate students will pay $21 per unit instead of $20. Graduate student tuition will be raised from $21 per unit to $25. with the exception of teachers taking graduate work. They will be charged only $23 per unit.
Professional Schools Hit
Dentistry students will have to pay $425 per* semester rather than the present $400; dental hygiene courses will increase from $325 to $390 per semester.
In the School of Medicine, course?s will be set at $500 per semester instead of $475. Tuition will also advance from $375 to $390 per semester in the School of Pharmacy.
Law Majors Pay
Full-time day students in the School of Law will be charged $375 per semester as compared with the present $325. Full time night students will pay $260 per semester instead of $225; tuition for part-time day students will be $38 per unit instead of $35, and full-time night students will pay $30 per unit rather than $25.
In spite of this increase, SC's tuition will still be less than that of many other private colleges in the Los Angeles area and independent universities in the East. A similar tuition increase was announced last week by Occidental College.
Necessary Funds
“The main purpose of the increase is to obtain the necessary funds to augment faculty salaries and meet the rising costs of education at SC today,” said Earl C. Bolton, vice president in charge of development.
“We need these additional funds to meet increased expenses which all universities face in this period of generally rising costs.
“Such increases have been found necessary in various other colleges,” Bolton explained.
It has not yet been announced whether or not academic scholarships will be increased along with tuition.
Debaters Garner 10 New Trophies
Members of the debate squad earned 10 new trophies for SC during Easter vacation at forensic contests 3000 miles apart.
Bob Croutch and Mike Miller, attending the Tau Kappa Alpha National Invitational Speech Tournament at Butler College in Indianapolis, piace honors after jousting with

the other hand, who are not as well organized, naturfi'iy, as the fraternity men, spend less time on campus activities and have more time for scholastic matter,” he said.
IFC Studying Possibilities
Courtney disclosed that the Interfraternity Council is studying several possibilities for raising the total fraternity grade-point average, however.
The setting of two-point limits where individuals will be put on social probation if they fall below this average, the giving of a trophy to the house with the highest average and the giving of a trophy to the pledge with the highest average are some of the measures th? council is considering, he said.

Neyman. Chaplain Neyman was sptdK-ing in reference to the article. “Religion in Our Colleges,” in the April 22 issue of Newsweek magazine emphasizing the dominating religious trend in American colleges and universities. Student Seek God Newsweek says: “In usprecedented numbers, (students) are seeking God, not only in the faith of their fathers and in conventional church vvor-i ship but in intellectual self-appraisals that cry out for a deity to manifest his relevance to a complex modern world. “Responding to the trend, colleges and universities have been cramming their catalogues with ! such courses as 'The Psychology of Religion,’ ‘The Life and Teachings of Jesus’ and ‘Beginning Hebrew.’ Two-thirds of all stale universities now give academic credit for religion courses. Chapel Attendance Booming “In addition to this hunger for spiritual knowledge, today's col-' lege students also want to wor- ship God. Voluntary chapel at-! tendance is booming. “At Northwestern University j twice as many boys and girls ! now attend the university chapel j as did a decade ago. At the Uni- j versity of Michigan 5000 of a total 22,000 students go to I church at least once a week.” j Chaplain Speaks 1 Chaplain Neyman*of our own 1 . university said: “On the SC campus there has been a change in the religious 1 program. Due to student de- j mand, we have established the Sunday worship services, which we have not had since the university was small. “This does not necessarily mean that we’re being conventional about it,” Neyman said. “The w'hole thing is an after-math of two national disturb-asces, namely World Wars I and II. These wars showed us that something was basically wrong with our religious awareness. Additional Costs Seen as Reason For New Jump Tuition at SC will be raised $2 per unit in the fall for full-time undergraduate students, the board of trustees has announced. The increased tuition is needed to provide additional operational funds. Similar increases will affect students in the Schools , of Dentistry, Medicine, Law and Pharmacy. This decision will mean that the average undergradu-j ate will pay $27 per unit instead of S25. A year at SC will cost about $837 instead of $775. Reasons Told Among the reasons for the increase given by the board of trustees are faculty requirements, higher fixed costs for equipment, materials and supplies, Social Security costs, utilities, and pensions. Part-time undergraduate students will pay $21 per unit instead of $20. Graduate student tuition will be raised from $21 per unit to $25. with the exception of teachers taking graduate work. They will be charged only $23 per unit. Professional Schools Hit Dentistry students will have to pay $425 per* semester rather than the present $400; dental hygiene courses will increase from $325 to $390 per semester. In the School of Medicine, course?s will be set at $500 per semester instead of $475. Tuition will also advance from $375 to $390 per semester in the School of Pharmacy. Law Majors Pay Full-time day students in the School of Law will be charged $375 per semester as compared with the present $325. Full time night students will pay $260 per semester instead of $225; tuition for part-time day students will be $38 per unit instead of $35, and full-time night students will pay $30 per unit rather than $25. In spite of this increase, SC's tuition will still be less than that of many other private colleges in the Los Angeles area and independent universities in the East. A similar tuition increase was announced last week by Occidental College. Necessary Funds “The main purpose of the increase is to obtain the necessary funds to augment faculty salaries and meet the rising costs of education at SC today,” said Earl C. Bolton, vice president in charge of development. “We need these additional funds to meet increased expenses which all universities face in this period of generally rising costs. “Such increases have been found necessary in various other colleges,” Bolton explained. It has not yet been announced whether or not academic scholarships will be increased along with tuition.
