Accion' Talk To Clarify Group's Aim
Two representatives of Accion, an organization described as a private effort for technological development in Latin America parallel to the Peace Corps, will speak today at noon in 121 FH.
The members. Chuck Penti-coff and Al Heim, will explain the purposes of their program at an open meeting. Dr. Paul Hadley, Summer Session dean, said.
The group has received the praise of Governor Brown, who wrote, “It seems to me that all of you have taken the straightest line between a problem and an effective solution for it: individual effort without stint.
“Your activities make me proud to be a Californian and an American,” the governor has said. “Your task is great and I am confident you will find the strength to match it.”
The organization operates apart from governmental and religious ties, although it often cooperates with government ministries in Latin America, its director, Joseph "S. Blatch-ford, explained.

Constitution Provides Cain For Pakistan, Panel Says
The new constitution for Pakistan marks the beginning of progress for that country, four Pakistani graduate students said recently.
Speaking at the monthly seminar on comparative administration at the International Public Administration Center lounge, the four students traced their country’s development from a divided nation to an emerging democracy.
“From the birth of Pakistan in 1947 unt>l the revolution in 1957 our nation was in chaos,’ Shaukat Ali, a professor of political science at the University of F^injab, said.
“We were a frustrated people with no faith in our leaders,” he claimed. “But the new constitution marks the beginning of progress for Pakistan.’ Ali served on the panel with Humayun Khan, a member of the civil service in his home country; Iftikhar Ahmad, e staff member of the National Institute of Public Administration at Lahore; and Anis-Ud-Din Ahmed, aLo a member of the civil service.

Professor Bemoans Audience Lag At Music at Noon Concert Series
OOMP-PAH-PAH — Cpen air concerts are just one of many ways the Music at Nocn series caters to the musical taste of USC students. The series is currently presented every Wednesday in Hancock Auditorium.
The panorama of piano music that will be presented by PI Charles Secrease today at 12:15 in Hancock Auditorium will mark the latest in the Music School’s Music at Noon concert series.
Many of these performances, however, have played to relatively small audiences , Dr. Franklin B. Zimmerman, head of the music history and literature department, told the Daily Trojan.
“The purpose of the informal concert series is to give talented students a chance to perform in public and to entertain students who are interested in fine music,” Dr. Zimmerman explained,
“Despite the fact that these programs are free, are held at a convenient time and consist of good music and top talent, Hancock Auditorimu is seldom
Daily Trojan Photo mtre than «ie-fOUrth full,” Dr.
Z mmerman declared.
“There seems to be a spiritless attitude at USC,” the department head continued.
He pointed out that the University of California at Berkeley usually has about 350 persons in attendance at a similar series each week. He also said Los Angeles State College musicians play to capacity crowds { twice a week.
In contrast, USC seldom has j more than 75 to 150 persons att°nc-ing he concert? Dr. Zimmerman noted. “And most of those are usually music students,” he said.
However, he added that op-p * a s and Sunday night con-
ant to Dr. David Shirley, associate professor of public administration, served a s moderator.
Panelist A 11 explained that the new constitution helped resolve the political strife between East and West Pakistan.
“With membership in the central legislature divided equally between East and West Pakistan, a federal system of government was made possi ble.” he explained.
The new constitution declares that a presidential form of government, with the chief executive chosen by an electoral college, shall be adopted.
It also specifies that the laws of the nation must be consonant with the principles of Islam.
Speaker Ahmad defined ‘‘basic democracy” in Pakistan as ‘‘a search for functional democracy.”
“For the time being, however. we must content ourselves with a restricted democracy,” he said.
Referring to the preamble of the Padtistani constitution, which guarantees “total de m >cracy,” Ahmad said progress to the goal has to be made slowly.
“We neeed to lay the groundwork for a sound and healthy climb on the pyramid of political development which leads to the realization of a total democracy,” he said.
Panelist Khan described Pakistan’s central government as a collection of staff agencies serving the provincial governments in a discussion of local
and central government administration in his country.
The four agencies of the central government are the governor’s conference, the economic council, the cabinet and the secretariat.
“The central government has adopted a decentralized policv which provides local govern ments with more autonomy ” the civil service worker said.
Panelist Ahmed reported on provincial administration i n Pakistan.

“We are telling the contestants only that the judges are over 21. not students and are authorities on music,” Heeres said.
He said the selected groups would rehearse for the May 12 event during Easter vacation and the following three weeks.

The remaining elected officers will be installed tonight at 5:30 at a dinner in the I Commons cafeteria. Old and new officers will attend the ceremonies and Dean of Students Robert J. Downey will administer oaths of office.
Five of the disqualified leaders were eliminated because they had not paid elections fines. They and 12 other fined candidates will be prohibited from participating in student activities for the remainder of their undergraduate years, Helm said.
Probation
Thirty-four of the elected leaders, including 11 ASSC senators, were disqualified because the fields-of-study they represent have been put on probation for not submitting revised constitutions as directed by the recently passed field regulation bill, Helm explained.
Students not being installed because of fines are Donna Kay Dye, Senior Class vice president; Alen Katz, business vice president; Toni Kruken-berg, education vice president; Ken Payne, International Relations president; and Susan Strom, humanities senator.
Eliminated field officers — including presidents, vice presidents and senators — were from architecture, communica tions, education, health and physical education, humanities, international relations, music, pharmacy, physical science, occupational and physical therapy and social studies.
Pay Consequences
Helm said that the fined students and the field officers had been notified in writing that they had to meet their obligations by yesterday or pay the consequences.” He said that the material still must be turned in.
Helm explained that the fines were now the responsibility of Dean Downey, who has the power to reinstate the officers if they pay their fines.
TRG’s recognition as a campus organization had been given by the Executive Cabinet on condition that the party revise several sections of its constitution but the party leaders missed yesterday’s deadline.
