For the second year in a row we have a fouled up basketball schedule. The first home games are during Christmas vacation, while most students are at home, then no home games until February. That's poor scheduling. s j f.J'C Male Menagerie Live Carleson Troubles (by LARRY WILLIAMS) The menagerie of male stud- ents that live in Carleson Ilall rarely realize the suffering and hard work set forth in keeping them out of trouble. They may often think of the gaity of dorm living without considering the tasks being done by the dorm officers, resident assistants and dorm daddy. observer may think of it as a military school for bad children with spies and rat finks peeping out of every corner, crack and nook. The fear of getting caught for some trivial An offense is complicated by the threat of having to do work details, such as, watering flowers, washing windows, cleaning the lounge or John. However, Carleson Hall can be called home by 100 and some odd students. To them it represents the warmth and comfort of family living. There are, as in every patriarchy, a few minor difficulties. One can overlook socks. One dorm student, who would like to remain anonymous because of social pressures, gave his candid opinion: The Big Question is, Is Carleson Hall a high class hotel or a low class barracks?' I maintain it is a low class hotel, because when one rents a room, one should be able to put his books, clothes, etc. where he wishes in his room."

Larry Gilson, Rick Thiriot, Rick Taylor Photographers Adviser To the Student Body: The giijls of Ferry Hall Penthouse would like to thank the students, faculty, and administration members who took some of their evening Oct. 31, to attend our Halloween Open House. We spent a good number of enjoyable hours preparing decorations, and are all busy in our society and there are many poHcies and standards that we must follow. In our every day living there are many tilings each person must do according We fast-movi- ng custom and law. The most well known law is the Federal Income Tax. Hence, every elected official should be a little more aware of his duties and responsibilities, whether they they be from custom or from law. And also, our system of democracy is especially made to be a deliberately slow process, and it must be conformed to. Throughout everyones busy day it may be seem helpful to expedite this business of government, but without slow democratic process our society will not survive. And many times the rest of us should thank the diligent people who discover the few that they discover. Quite naturally, in many proc to. such problems as smelly ventilation, lack of tissue paper and cold water showers and one working washing machine. Have you ever washed your socks in the bathroom sink and hope they'll be dry in time to sing in a choir performance.

I want to especiaUy thank John Joe Ford, George Pavich, Ligeros, Kathy Slawson, and Bob McCarthy for their leadership JOHN MANNOS. . IT MAY CONCERN' dis-crepen- esses that we learn to do, some of processes become internalized and actually become habits. Therefore, we sometimes forget, certain laws, or customs and very humanly make mistakes. So, with the basic acceptance of policy in this country, that our society must survive, we as Americans are deeply convinced in our democratic systems of government. And whether this government is on the Federal level or on any lower level, these basic systems of democratic government that have been internatized into must be met by our elected officials. As we have seen recently in the elections here in Salt Lake county even though a public official was doing his job that he was elected to do, he was ridiculed and chastized because his own personal affairs got out of hand. This one individual was sent to a Federal prison for evading his personal income taxes.

And Steve Martinez deserves a hand for the Homecoming Dance which climaxed the entire day. The float burning may have been the work of vandals, but it added needed publicity. It also showed the public that despite a hardship, the parade went on. Boysnoise is to be congratulated for the pubUcity gathered by their picketing the downtown area. Under the leadership of Dale Simpson and the cheerleaders, the Salt Lake area was invited to our Homecoming by a picket brigade. The success of Homecoming was also displayed on the gridiron. Never before have 30 guys played their guts out, so they could add their share to make Homecoming one of the best in the history of Westminster. But that isn't all. There are (HOMECOMING, Pg. 3, Col. 1) your attendance made our time well spent. It seems to have been one of the best attended functions on campus thus far-- at least 170 people came; then we stopped counting! You are the ones who made it successful. Thank you again for being with us. Heather Maynard, Vice --Pres., Hogle Council To Editor ' With so many repubUcan con- servatives arguing for a strong state government, it is ironical that most oppose the adoption of Amendment Two calling a constitutional convention to redocuvise Utahs 70 year-ol- d ment. The constitution was written in 1895 to please a United States Congress which was considering Utah statehood. The local legislators then were not drafting the best possible bill; instead they were trying to butter up the body that had rejected Utah statehood seven previous times. The hastily written laws have taken their toll. Sections dealing with finances, taxation and debt limitation have been amended 22 times in an effort to keep up with changing conditions. Some debt limitations are not applicable at all. Utah's judicial system has been hit hard by the present constitution. There is a lack of coordination between agencies. The of the Justice of Peace is no longer used in metropolitan areas and is needed only in a few remote sections of the state. Opponents argue that any adjustments can be made through the amendment procedure. Indeed 48 amendments have been approved by the voters and the legislature has placed 84 on the baUot! It would seem much easier to sack the outmoded laws and institute ones associated with the present era. The federal government's encroachment into local matters can be traced partiaUy to the states. Utah voters had a chance .to upgrade their local law by voting for Amendment Two, already backed by the Utah League of Woman Voters, and to call (LETTER, Pg. 3, Col. 1) |
