Presidential candidate, Greg Taylor, is standing on the following planks:
(II To appoint students to administrative committees. This will avoid such problems as senior finals and tuition.
• 2) To establish a uniform wage rate for all student employees.
Stimulate Interest “I hope that the result of this campaign will stimulate an interest of the student body to the importance of student government. I also hope that each individual student will realize his responsibility by going to the polls," Taylor said.
Taylor will speak today at Troy meet groups, councils, on the Row, and at Harris Plaza at 9:45 p.m. Tomorrow he will address more Troy meet groups and the Row.
Carl Terzian, opposing presidential aspirant, said that all of hig platform planks are geared in one direction, 'The principle of orientation, then participation." He hopes to do this in the following ways:

(2) To have senate speakers visit organizations during the day and tell the opportunities for students in government.
Objectives "It is my wish that the planks of my platform will become the major objectives of those who serve on the student senate during the coming year. If elected, I would direct this program effectively. If not elected to the presidency, I hope to find another way to take part in fulfilling these objectives,” Terzi-

Chairmen See Camp Doomed If Not Helped
Troy Camp may face “complete obliteration” if steps are not taken to remedy Its growing organizational problems ad responsibilities. according to Sandy Poschman and Bill Jackson, co-chairmen of the SC summer camp for under-privileged children.
“At the present time our camp program is about one quarter as effective as It could be if we had the proper organization behind it,” the co-chairmen said.
Each Summer
Troy Camp, a non-profit camp program supported by money collected at SC, is held each summer for ten days. One hundred and ten under-privileged children, regardless of race, creed, or color, are given an opportunity to attend the camp free of charge.
According to Jackson, the entire burden of arranging the camp program tests with the two chairmen.
“We have to provide for the camp site Itself, its counselors, food, recreation equipment, cooks, transportation, and a nurse," he said.
Alsu Run Camp
“Beside these things, we must also supervise the running of the camp, plan the means for obtaining money to support it, and I handle its publicity.
The Troy Camp co-chairmen | suggested the following three-I point plan to remedy the “serious shortcomings” of the present program:
Three Suggestions
1. A Troy Camp board of directors could lie established to more efficiently carry on the camp program.

I Ruthanne Marr, LAS president; j Betty Metzger, ASSC vice presi-I dent; Sue Corwin, ASSC secretary; and Ron Weintraub, Senior Council member.
Announced Too l.ate Unsuccessful attempts were made Friday to contact President Fred D. Fagg; Dean of Students Bernard L. Hyink; and Vice President of Education Albert S. Raubenhelmer in an effort to present the administration's viewpoint on the ruling. These officials were off campus attending funeral rites for Dr. Harry J. Deuel, the late Graduate School dean.
"We have no doubt that the faculty committee did a lot of conscientious thinking before making the ruling. Our only regret is that the ruling was not announced until this late date,” said McMahon.
McMahon said that the late announcement will result in many gradautes losing jobs and being forced to change wedding and travel plans.
Empty Diploma*
"A large number of students will receive empty diploma jackets at the graduation ceremony because final grades will not be posted in time to meet diploma printing schedules," McMahon said.
"We agree that seniors shou1 ' be given finals and that the faculty committee did give amnl-consideration to the subject ly-fore making the ruling. Our on)' protest is that they chose to announce the ruling too late to keep from disrupting senior postgraduation plans,” he continued.
Faculty Will Listen "The student committee and the ASSC Senate are not, in any way, criticizing the action taken by the Committee on Student Scholarship. We feel sure that the faculty committee will listen with open minds to our plea and not set the ruling in motion until next semester,” McMahon concluded.
Another optimistic opinion was expressed by Steve Robertson, senior clnss president.
“I believe that the faculty had not considered their recent ruling from our viewpoint," he said. "When the student problems are put before them, I am sure that they will respect the reasonable and concrete nature of them and reconsider."

Beneath the surface of the VI Jameson-Mary Laird vice presidential race, powerful forces of social prestige are operating to almost obscure the battle of Individuals and platforms
With the social standings of several sororities at slake, the personalities of the two women are taking a back seat among many Rowites.
The issue is simply this: Delta Gamma, Miss Jameson's house, is generally rated tops on the Row socially. Pi Phi, Miss Laird's house, and some of the other sororities near the top, want the number one position.
Otis After Prestige To stay tops the DGs could j use the prestige that goes along with having the vice president | of the student body In the sor- i orlty. Without that post, the house Is going to be short on major officers, especially since I a DG was defeated for AWS I president two weeks ago To become tops. I lie Pi Phis j also need the prestige of the j vice presidency. And the Pi Phis aren’t alone In wanting to see the DGs displaced. If the DCs I go down, some of the other high- I ly rated sororities figure they’ll 1 go up
Others Have Chance
Then, since Miss Laird is currently the only political-minded Pi Phi, the other houses see < that they may have a chance j next year.
With this working against her. plus the fact that oificial TRG
support has gone to Miss Laird, it would seem to cut down Miss Jameson's chances for election considerably.
Yet the name of DG still carries magic in an election. The house has a reputation of almost never losing a top post. It has had two ASSC vice presidents and two ASSC secretaries in the last four years.
Part of the reason is the effort which the house puts out at election time, plain hard work that picks up votes.
Also, many of the big fraternity houses that have close social relations with the DGs are bound lo vole for Miss Jameson despite party endorsements.
This race shapes up as one of the closest and most interesting of the election.

With this working against her. plus the fact that oificial TRG support has gone to Miss Laird, it would seem to cut down Miss Jameson's chances for election considerably. Yet the name of DG still carries magic in an election. The house has a reputation of almost never losing a top post. It has had two ASSC vice presidents and two ASSC secretaries in the last four years. Part of the reason is the effort which the house puts out at election time, plain hard work that picks up votes. Also, many of the big fraternity houses that have close social relations with the DGs are bound lo vole for Miss Jameson despite party endorsements. This race shapes up as one of the closest and most interesting of the election.
