It’s that simple,” said Ric Lloyd, an Appeals Board Justice. The petition must be made withta forty-eight hours after the lower decision. However, the appeal can also be made through the Dean of Men as had been done before. “We have kept the Dean of Men’s method because we are new and people don’t have a lot of trust in us. Students usually know what they can expect from the Dean of Men,” Lloyd said. Lloyd said unlike the Dean of Men’s method, the Appeals Board will be operated in an informal manner to give it that personal "appeal." “It is a question of a student appearing before a student board or before an administrator,” Lloyd said. Lloyd said any type of disciplinary decision handed out by a lower court in the residence halls can be appealed. The appointed members of the student review board are: Chief Justice Richard De-Quattro and Justices John Cejka; Jan Dubin; John Johennings; and Ric Lloyd.

The purpose o f the Retreat, according to the planning committee, was to help establish better lines of communication between the three groups. Invited for the first time were three members of the Board of Trustees. “The Trustees felt it was a very rewarding experience,” Retreat Chairman Ron Reshefsky said. "They would like to have more trustees attend next year.” The students attending (more than 60 students were present) for the most part represented campus organizations such as Associated Women Students, Interfraternity Souncil, Panhellenic, Men’s Residence Hall Association and the HURRICANE. “The Retreat turned out to be a great success,” Reshefsky said. "Relationships were established and people got to know each other." This year the committee broke the Retreat into 11 groups of ten each. These groups stayed together throughout the weekend. Each group was asked to hand in a written report by Saturday night which outlined their opinon of the current “state of the university” and the goals and purposes that the university should move toward. Five of the groups actually did submit a report, which will be given to President Stanford and other adminis- trators and members of the faculty. A few of the groups have decided to meet again to further discuss and research the reports that they wrote. Retreat ended on Sunday morning after everyone wrote out an evaluation of the weekend. Reshefsky said that the evaluations will be combined into one report and made public within the next few weeks. Roost The cupboard isn’t bare for Former Eng. Prof Dies By ELIZABETH OSTROFF Of Th« Hurrlcan* Staff Dr. Walter Scott Mason Jr., Chairman of the UM Department of English from 1951-59 and a member of the English faculty since 1936 died last Friday. He was 63. A specialist in the fields of Victorian and American literature, Dr. Mason served as head of the English Departments at both Bowden College (1933-34) in Georgia and Cumberland University (1934-36) in Kentucky. “There are probably few people who loved the University more and loved students more than Dr. Mason, and students responded to him in that way,” chairman of the English Department Dr. John McCollum said. Dr. Mason was a native of May-field, Kentucky. He earned his L.L.B. and A.B. degrees from Cumberland University and his M.A. and Ph.D. -----------!--------------------------- from George Peabody College. Dr. Mason’s dissertation at Peabody was “Florida in American Fiction” which traces Florida fiction from 1831 to 1940. After coming to UM in 1936 he became the director of the UM Winter Institute of Literature from 1937-42. He was a member of the American Association of University Professors, Phi Delta Kappa, and the Historical Association of South Florida. Dr. Mason who was buried Monday is survived by his wife Edith, a former English teacher; a brother Dr. James Mason, an English professor at Indiana State University; and a nephew, James David Mason, professor of English at the University of Tennessee. Dr. Mason's family has requested that any memorial contributions be made to the American Cancer Society. H--------------------------------------- The charge read as follows: “That a sufficient number of the members of the Election Commission have been so biased in their support of a particular candidate(s) that their functioning as a whole has adversely affected the campaign(s) of the other candidates.” Tannenbaum made the charge during an eight-hour informal hearing headed by Chief Justice David Halberg. The hearing was held after an appeal was made by the Election Commission to Supreme Court. Lynn Seigel, Commission chairman, represented the Commission during the hearing. • Tannenbaum charged hat certain Election Commission members acted without objectivity concerning: 1) George Rahal’s removal as the chairman of the Election Commission.2). The Commission’s harassment of the Tannenbaum slate, 3) the overt implication by the commission that the Tannenbaum slate was involved in the Don Wade campaign theft, and 4) the involvement of members of the commission with Don Wade's campaign.” He charged specifically that the recent decision by the Election Board to halt the USG election because of the alleged theft of Don Wade’s campaign materials adversely affected his campaign. After hearing the decision of the Supreme Court, Tannenbaum said, “I think the court was very objective and fair in its deliberation, Tannenbaum said that his intention was to show the student body and a third impartial body that the Tannenbaum slate felt that certain unfair practices were being adhered to by certain members of the Commission. These practices, he felt, hindered the over all decision making of the body. The Election Commission contended that the allegations made against it were based on remarks that were purely "hearsay." A series of witnesses were heard by the four Supreme Court justices. Halberg, Doug Andrews, Doug Kane and Mark Safferstone, and adviser, William Sheeder. During the testimony one point brought up was whether Jim Yasser, USG president, had the right to call the Election Commission meeting in an effort to discuss the Wade theft. Yasser is not a voting member of the Election Commission. Yasser was called as a witness by Tannenbaum but he did not appear before the Court. Another major Issue was whether the presence of a non-voting guest at the Elec-ton Commission meetings had influenced any member so he could not render objective decisions. Adviser to the Election Commission Howard Winniman said, “the presence of any representative has not caused any prejudice." He said that he feels the decisions by the Election Commission as a whole were not biased, although everyone as a human being has some bias. “After all,” he said, “we’re not machines, we’re human beings.” The Supreme Court “firmly” recommended that the Election Commission members maintain a complete separation with the USG officials in the performance of their duties as an Election Commission. ■ UM professor Dr. Oscar Owre.
