USG Holds ‘Lame Duck ’ Session
In a lame duck session, the out-going Undergraduate Student Government Council Monday sought to make a series of recommendations to the council elect j on the manner in which USG 1 elections should he conducted.
After remarking that, "I’m glad that it is over,” acting Council president Ken Hunt, requested recommendations from the mem-[ bers of the current council which | might be presented to the University’s joint faculty-student election hoard.
USG treasurer Ron Sabo pointed out that it was the duty
of the rotinril to establish a definite e Ieri ion rode whirh the Election Board must follow.
"At the present time, said Hunt, who served as an ex-officio member of the Election Board. “We have no right to determine what penalties should he inflicted upon those students who violate the election laws. He described the Election Board's right to act as being that of slapping a child’s wrist and saying “naughty, naughty."
Sabo also pointed out the necessity of establishing a definite
system of control over the expenditures of the students who campaign for office.
The USG Constitution states, he insisted, that a student's campaign materials should he assessed "in dollars or in kind." However. it is often difficult to get a correct appraisal of some of the monies which a student spends on his campaign.
In other action the Council determined that the newly elected USG officers should he installed in the new UM Student Union, Friday afternoon. April 23 at 3 p.m.
Blood Drive Set For April 27-28
The Greek Week Blood Drive will be April 27 and 28 this year in the new Student Union. The Greeks, independents, and the community will participate by giving blood for Timothy Ward Strobach, the National Hemophiliac foundation and the Greater Miami Heart Association. Greek Week points will be given for fraternity and sorority participation.
Timmy Strobach, a child stricken with hemophilia, has been adopted by the UM Interfraternity Council as their “little hrother” and they present the blood drive every year for his benefit and for those like him. Timmy’s parents founded the South Florida chapter of the National Hemophiliac Foundation. He was the 1963 poster boy for this foundation.
IFC and the sororities will conduct the blood drive among the fraternities and sororities, and Gamma Sigma Sigma will ron-
duct it for the independents and the community. One half of the blood donated by the Greeks will go to the National Hemophiliac Foundation and the other half to the IFC account for use by Timmy, fraternity men, and their benefactors.
The blood donated by the independents and other community donors will be presented to the Greater Miami Heart Association.
Donors must be at least 21 or have their parents permission to donate.
The rules for the Greek Week points will be the same as last year, except that the sororities are competing this year. They have never done so before.
Alpha Tau Omega won last year with the highest percentage of fraternity members participating. Sigma Chi gave the largest number of pints.
The total number of pints for last year’s drive was 204 pints.
The fraternities are hoping to at least quadruple last year’s total. The Goal for this year's blood drive is 1000 pints.
As never before, the blood drive this year is a communitywide project.
