Committee Urges Campus Political Speakers

urges political speakers on campus
By JOE SALTZMAN
A suggested university policy recommended by a faculty-student committee to allow organized students clubs to support and sponsor representatives of political parties on campus is in the hands of SC President Norman Topping today for reviewing and a decision.
At the personal request of the president, Dr. Robert Gordon, acting dean of students, called together a special committee yesterday consisting of faculty and student members to suggest a written policy concerning political speakers on campus.
After careful debate and discussion, this full recommendation was attained:
“The University of Southern California is politically non-partisan. Faculty, employees and students are»not asked by the university to affirm or deny affiliation with any political party. Nor is there either rule or inference against support of any such political party by members of the university com-
munity, so long as claim or color of repre-, senting the university is clearly avoided.
“In the interest of good citizenship and intelligent exercise of the citizen’s right of franchise, the university has approved and recognized the organization of students into clubs supporting the programs and candidates of political parties.
“When recognized student groups use university facilities in sponsoring off-campus representatives of political parties, the university recognizes its responsibility to encourage the presentation of views on controversial issues. Such a policy we believe is in harmony with the educational objective of unbiased inquiry.
“This policy attempts to clarify all the misinterpretations of SC approval of programs and candidates of political parties on campus,” Dr. Gordon said.
Attention was Reused on this issue when, through the invitation of the Trojan Young Democrats, California Governor Candidate Pat Brown was asked to speak on campus.
Dr. Topping asked to see some written policy on the subject, but the fact that there had never been such a policy established resulted in the faculty - student committee recommendation.
Wednesday night, the ASSC Senate voted by a unanimous decision to go on record as urging the welcoming of all speakers of recognized political parties to speak on the SC campus.
Members of this committee include Dr. Colin R. Lovell and Dr. Russell L. Caldwell of the history department. Dr. Totton J. Anderson, Dr. Bernard C. Hyink and Dr. C. Ro-dee of the political science department; Dr. Vic Walker, professor of economics; student chairman of Trojan Young Republicans and the Young Democrats; Burt Pines and Bob Chick; Scott FitzRandolph, student body president; Abe Somers, senior class president; Jim Bylin, Daily Trojan editor; Dudley Johnson, Student activities adviser; Nelson Gilman, Chairman of the ASSC Forum Committee; and Dr. Gordon.

The flight was exceptionally 1 smooth. The coaches spent a good part of the time working out plays with individual players and many card games were j scattered throughout the plane.
’ Trojan end Don Voyne kept the sports writers and players laughing with his endless jokes and quips.
j Throughout the flight Mike i McKeever studied economics.
Everyone took at least one crack ; at hustling the two hostesses. I One of the players and coaches i spent time in the cockpit with the pilot, the same pilot who has j | been flying Trojan teams for 11 years.
The agenda for today includes a trip through the nearby Ford | (. plant, and an afternoon work-1 lout on the Dearborn Inn I | grounds, where the team is stay- I j mg.
Here is what the Detroit j Times has to say about the game: “The Wolverines crowd ! | estimate was given a boost when i SC tipped over highly favored I Oregon State by three touch- I I downs. There had been reports that this was a rebuilding year I | at Los Angels, but Coach Don |
I Clark apparently has his job j done, and is ready to battle the best of them.”
Michigan is given one touch- I down (8 points) edge in the pie- I £ame rating. No one knows why, cxcept for the fact that the Big Ton teams usually beat the Pa-cfic Coast Conference eleven.
The Trojans passed their first \ test with flying colors, while Michigan is still organizing for the season.
Third Meet The game will mark the third contest between the two teams. Tne Wolverines currently boast a 2-0 edge. In addition to their 49-0 whitewash over the Trojans in ihe 1947 Rose Bowl game, j the Big Ten e'even also defeated ; the local ‘kids 16-6 last year.
The game will be a season opener for Michigan. The Trojans, meanwhile, have a stunning 21-0 thrashing of Oregon i State under their belts.
The Trojans have been posted as eight to 10 point underdogs I to the Big Teners, however. And people back here are saying that j the margin should be much;

The main complaint of the bill was in the unlimited freedom which would be afforded to the press; the minority feeling that something more than a conscience and a set of morals was needed to guide the student editor and his staff.
