The ASSC president will explain many of these goals' for student government dur-; ing the semester’s first Executive Cabinet meeting today | at 2.
“Student government will not favor special interest groups, as it has in the past,”
Del Conte claimed yesterday.
“I hope everyone involved in student government will forget petty differences and work together to strengthen the university.”

Hungarian Tells Need
Freedom Fighter for Western Aid
All free peoples have an obligation to help countries oppressed by Communist rule, a Hungarian freedom fighter told Delta Phi Epsilon members last night.
Tibor Tollas. speaking to the men’s professional international relations and foreign service fraternity, said the West must hold out for Hungarian recognition apart from the Communists.
“Refugees also have an important obligation to fulfill,” he added. “They must tell the world of their experiences in prison under the Soviets.” Tollas. editor of Hungary’s largest free newspaper, the Hungarian Guardian, said he

The freedom fighter has been touring Africa, Latin America and the United States to gather signatures for a petition to force the United Nations to reconsider dropping the Hungarian independence question on the world forum.
He wras greeted by chants of “Cuba, Cuba. Cuba” while
“We’ve lost most of our staff members,” Tollas continued, “purely because we
haven’t been able to pay them much.”
Tollas himself was imprisoned by the Communists for more than nine years.
