It will be the aim of the Parson to aid in both. All campus activities will be handled objectively, through thorough reporting and subjectively through editorial and personal columns. It is also tlie aim of this paper to have its freedom of press recognized by putting out a responsible newspaper. No article will be refused if it is in good taste andor can be substantiated. As editor, I urge you to use your student press as your voice to the campus community and to the civic community as well. Now that the Paysons aims have been touched on, lets look at the goals the Parson would like to see achieved this year. First, support of all campus activities by the student body. Support can be nothing more than going to a dance or it can involve planning, decorating, operating or cleaning up for an activity. Second, more students rights. SGAC can accomplish this by setting up sound programming for the voar. Some ideas for programming are leadership workshops and group technique workshops. One step has already been taken towards this goal by the injection of the discussion groups for entering students to be held on Saturday of Orientation Week. Third, an earnest attempt by the administration to work with the SGAC and the studentbody as a whole. These are three goals the Parson would like to see accomplished. It will only be accomplished if you, the students, support the programming of student government and moreover demand responsible programming by student government for yourselves. TAMPICO CAFE Mexican and American Dishes Letter To The Editor Gripers Anonymous r , What is Burma Road? A question asked by many frosh for the first time and by mahy upper 'classmen for the infintesimal time. To the bystanders, Burma Road is merely 'the series of chuck holes which cars dodge in order to commute on the campus. To the accomplished Westminsterite, it is much more. It is a traditional mud hole. Taking note of the literal one aspects of the name, should consult an ' authoritative reference book, in this case the Kncyclodedia Americana. Burma is described as a small southeast Asian country with two geograph: ical points very similar to Westminsters Burma; the mountain system consisting of offshoots of the Tibetan mountains. True, the Tibetan mountains arent near our campus, but the presence of offshoots is quite apparent on Burma road. Another geographical similarity is the presence of river and valleys, for w'hich Burma and Burma Road are notorious. After a heavy rain or during a snow melting season, the road is an annoyance to normal cars and a peril to small cars. One good similarity between the original Burma Roau and the Westminster Burma Road is that both have been used to carry helpful supplies. ' The Peace Corps is looking-foboxers, wrestlers and Judo experts. It also wants swimmers, basketball players and track and field atheletes. In all, the Peace Corps is seeking about 50 athletes, both men and women ' who have participated in college sports, for projects in Morocco, Senegal and the Ivory ences to respond to questions as soon as they are contacted. The Peace Corps is drawing on the experience and know! edge of leading sports organizations and associations in devising and administering the training program. Douglas Kiker, Chief Public Information Division Coast. The athletes, who need not be college graduates, have been invited by newly independent African .nations to coach and assist in the train-- ' ing of regional and national teams. Government officials look upon this interest as a way of using the common bond of widespread sports interest, to unify peoples accustomed to living in decentralized and tribal nations and to identiiy-thestrongly as participants in the single endeavor 'of building nations. Additionally. they feel that sports can be one of the most effective ways of working with the nations youth. Training for those selected will begin about in an American university. Applicants should therefore submit applications immediately and notify their refer mid-Octob- RUTH'S DRESS SHOP See Us for the Finest in College Dresses. 1310 South 3rd East SCHOOL SUPPLIES and ' GROCERIES HARWOOD'S er Open to 2053 So. 1 1 p.m, 1 3fh East mm Tickets' On Sale at The campus IKs are now selling theatre discount tickets for Intermountain and Fox theatres.
