Senate to Analyze Vote System
By WES GREGORY
A report analyzing the system of electing ASSC Sen-ators-at-large is expected to dominate tomorrow night’s I regular meeting of the ASSC Senate.
The report, which will be presented by Senator Joan i Sparling, will be the result of a survey conducted by the, Elections Investigating Committee into the feasibility ofi continuing the present preference method of electing the, nine Senators-at-Large.
At present. Senators are elected according to the Hare Proportional system of voting which involves the! transference of votes from candidate to candidate until1 nine office seekers receive enough votes to win.
Two meetings ago the Senate ordered its committee to study the system and possibly offer alternatives to it.
ASSC Secretary Barbara Malone will present a report of the campaign she waged in behalf of Hungarian stu-dent-refugees.
Together with other student leaders, Mrs. Malone collected nearly S1000 and secured signatures on 400 protest petitions during the course of her campaign.
The money was sent to aid Hungarian refugees through the auspices of World University Service, working in conjunction with CARE.
The Senate will again hear of the doings of- the newly-organized Trojan Host Committee.
Made up ol eight student leaders, the group will be the official university welcoming committee for visiting athletic teams and student leaders from out-of-town colleges and universities.
Vi Jameson, ASSC vice president, is chairman of the group. She plans to present a progress report of the new Senate committee.
Homecoming Chairman Stan Miller will present a partial report on Homecoming — the expenses involved, things accomplished and a general survey of this year’s Homecoming celebration.
Campus groups which have not turned in organiza-! tion reports to the Senate Recognitions Committee will be refused recognition of the student body.
Committee Chairman Dale Zeigler announced that noon tomorrow is the final deadline for these reports to be turned in to the Dean of Students Office in the Student Union.
After heated debate on this issue, the Senate voted at the last meeting to extend the deadline until tomorrow for the reports.
ASSC President Carl Terzian declared that he would not tolerate additional delay concerning this question.
“I will not entertain another motion to postpone the deadline for these reports,” he said.
Two resolutions will receive Senate consideration tomorrow.
One, by Senator Walt Williams, will express the Senate’s disfavor of conditions in Doheny Memorial Library and will accompany recommendation that the Adminis-I
tration investigate the entire question of poor library service.
This action will be the result of a poll taken by the Daily Trojan of student reaction to present library conditions. Students expressed their disappointment with the library and their disgust for its system of loaning books.
International Relations President Glen Hollinger will present a resolution commending Mrs. Malone for her efforts in the campaign for Hungarian relief.
During the recess Terzian will play a recording made of his speech on desegregation at last summer’s National Students Association Convention.
Terzian’s speech has been recorded along with other* outstanding orations of the meeting and sent to 250 colleges and universities both here and abroad.
The student body president will also give a report of his administration’s accomplishments thus far. This will be the first time in Senate history that such a report has been given.

The Budapest W'orkers Council, claiming to represent 65 per cent of the striking miners and factory workers throughout the country, insisted on a conference with Nagy, their own press, their own workers ‘militia" and distribution of western Red Cross aid to workers.
Kadar said in his broadcast that Nagy had not loft Hungary forever but would be gone “for some time.” He reiterated promises that the former premier would not be pu« on trial.
The puppet premier said Nagy was pushed further and furl her to the right h\ the counter revolutionaries lie tween Oct. 30 and Nov. 3.
“Nagy committed an unfor- ^
giveable crime when, as a result of his lack of ability, he tolerated the murder of scores of Communists by the reactionaries," Kadar said.
“What is worse, he legalized the crimes with his na.ne," he added.
Kadar said Nagy should have resigned as premier at that time, but instead he called for a new uprising. Then, he said. Nagy packed his baggage and hid out in the Yugoslav Embassy.
“By this action, he left Hungarian territory and demonstrated that he did not want to have anything to do with the Hungarian cabinet." Kadar said.
He said Nagy subsequently informed the government through diplomatic channels that he wanted to go abroad.

LONDON — (IP) — The British goxernmcnt today re-jwtod parliamentary demands that its troops remain in the Suez Canal /.one tu protect British civilians threatened with “rniel and inhuman'’ expulsion hy Egypt.
The British Foreign Office turned down the conservative demands as the Fnited Nations rushed an air-sea built-up of its emergency police force designed to take over as fast as possible from Anglo-French and Israeli occupying forces.
In Port Said, Norwegian troop*, of the F.N. Police Force went on patrol duty In the first active move to replace British and French occupation forces and speed their withdrawal from Egypt.

In Cairo. F.N. Commander Maj. Gen. E. I.. M. Burns announced plans for hundreds of other troops to arrive by sea at Port Said. Burns said he was moving his command headquarters lo the canal zone, where some 1,300 international troops were already gathered for service.
In Port Said. Anglo-French Field Commander Lt. Gen. Sir Hugh Stockwell told newsmen:
“We are working on plans for a withdrawal just as actively as we did for the capture of the Sue/..”
Demands for Anglo-French retaliatory action mounted following widespread reports that an estimated 13.000 Britons, 6.000 French and 50,000 Jewish residents of Egypt hail been ordered expelled.
But British Minister of State Allan Noble turned down calls in the House of Commons tliat Britain retaliate by ousting Egyptians from England and keeping occupation forces in the canal /.one.
“I am sure the House and the country would not wish us to meet barbarism with barbarism,*’ Noble said.
Nohle said, however, the British Foreign Secretary had made the “strongest possible representations’* over the expulsion threat to C.N. Secretary General Dad Mammarsk-jold and the Egyptian goxern-ment.
Noble reiterated Majority Leader R. A. Butler’s statement last week that British forces will withdraw as soon as sufflcien F.N. forces move into the Suez zone.

BERLIN — <UP> The Russians turned hack a west-bound British train at Germany's iron-
curtain norder today in an ominous renewal ol travel curbs like those that started the Soviet blockade of Berlin in 1948.
An American train headed for Berlin was allowed to pass alter a two-hour delay at the border, but only when it appeared the U.S. Army had surrendered to Soviet demands.
No one would say officially just what the Russians are up to, but it appeared they are challenging the right ol the western allies to carry civilians on the trains they operate between Berlin and the west.
British trains were delayed at the border twice last week, and it was reported then that the Russians were insisting that only soldiers, sailors and airmen had the right to ride the allied trains.
United Press Staff Correspondent Ernest J. Cramer was put off the American train today, apparently by Soviet demand.
The train commander told Cramer he would have to leave | tbe train at Marienborn, the So- j viet border check-point, because only servicemen could travel across Soviet Germany to en- | circled Berlin.
The UP correspondent, who was traveling on army orders,
' pointed out that State Depart- j ment officials, newsmen and other Americans accredited to the army in Germany have been riding the allied trains ever since the war.
“That was a mistake," the train commander said. He would give no further details.
British officials said their train was turned back after it had traveled lit) miles across i Soviet-held territory to Marienborn because of "new documen- : tation procedures.” They would give no further details.

The psychology department has given educational and vocational tests for many years, hut up to last year they were for one individual at a time.
The vocational testing process costs $25 for students and $35 for non-students. However, when many students complained last year that they wanted to take the tests but couldn’t afford the high price, the psychology department set up the testing process so that many students could take it at the same time at a lower cost.
