Attacks
Betinis
By STAN WILSON
ASSC President John Betinis has “put his foot in his, mouth" regarding the content; of his proposed amendment to abolish the Senate, Senator;
Brooke Gabrielson said yesterday.
The senator noted that Betinis has made statements in contradiction of the actual content of his amendment and hoped that "some voters will wake up and reason for themselves.”
“His first contradiction occurred when he stated: ‘‘anything I do could be overruled by the Executive Cabinet.’
According to his amendment he will have absolute control, except in the area of finance," Gabrielson said.
Betinis Deceitful?
“Secondly, he claims various administrators would help select representatives to the constitutional c o n v e ntion,”
Gabrielson said. “If this is what he means, this is what he should have included in the amendment."
Betinis' proposed amend-
ment states that ASSC rep- WEAPON DISPLAY

Gabrielson also commented on the differences between AMS President Adam Herbert's proposed amendment and the amendment proposed by Betinis.

Tall, overweight, sensitive, articulate, bright women students are potential suicide cases more than 50 per cent of the time. Professor Joseph D. Teicher reported at a USC post-graduate seminar at the Sheraton-West Hotel recently.
Addressing 300 doctors and students on “Adolescent Attempted Suicides,” Dr. Teicher discussed findings of his year-long study at Los Angeles County General Hospital.
Because approximately 95 per cent of all suicides occur among females. Dr. Teicher’s experiment involved girls 14 through 18 who have made a “bona fide suicide attempt.” Lengthy Interview
Each patient was subjected to an hour-and-a-half interview to discover her at-t:tude toward school, peers and physiological status.
“Surprisingly, every single exploratory study fell into the exact same pattern,” Dr. Teicher commented.
The potential suicide victim usually comes from a lower socio-economic family,
: lacks meaningful interaction with parents and peers and has been involved in somej sort of traumatic experience,! according to Dr. Teicher’s j findings.
A death in the family.! rape, incest or heated argu-j ments with a boy or girl- j friend are listed as the most, common of these experiences.j
Evidence from Dr. Teicher’s experiment indicated almost exclusively that potential suicides are tall, heavy, intelligent female students.

Redlands Professor To Speak
Dr. Frederick Mayer, professor of philosophy at Redlands University, will address 1500 prospective teachers at the 12th annual Future Teachers’ Conference tomor-
Students from approximately 200 high schools will assemble in Bovard Auditorium at 9:30 a.m. to listen to Dr. Mayer discuss. "Teachers —Molders of Civilization.”
The conference is sponsored by Phi Delta Kappa, honorary education fraternity, and by the California Teachers Association, in conjunction with the combined educational organizations of USC.
Panel Discussions
After Dr. Mayer's speech, the teaching hopefuls will split up into several panel groups to question prominent educators on a variety of subjects related to the teaching profession.
Although most of the students attending are already j considering teaching as their 'life vocation, “others are merely ‘sitting on the fence’,” | Conference Chairman Jim Clarke explained. He is principal of Marguerita Elementary School in Alhambra.
"The information these students obtain tomorrow could very well be the deciding factor in their chosen field of endeavor." he continued.
