These periods of fog are getting a little depressing. Speaking of the fog, I think the Salt Uke Chamber of Commerce has put the finger on the weatherman. Have you noticed when this fog first started it was called by many names., .smog, goop, slop and the blahs. Then'll became simply smog. That was followed by fog with air pollutants. Next it was a temperature inversion. Now they are palling it low clouds. That sounds lictter. ANOTHER CHIP out of the old The inauguration of President Reagan is only days away, and already there is action mi Capitol Hill to change the way we will elect his successor. Since President Roosevelt was elected to a fourth term in 1944, more than 50 different proposals have been brought up in Congress. Only one, limiting the President to two terms, has been actually enacted. THIS YEAR several major actions will be studied Among them: limiting the President to one term and making the popular vote decide the actual winner, thus eliminating the Electoral College. There are arguments for and against the one term. President Truthat man the in man said, effect, worlds most difficult job, ask you give a him to make decisions that effect the world"then tie his hands behind his back by telling everyone that he cannot succeed himself. Three Presidents that succeeded him favored the single term. It is pointed out that President Carter, will have spent four years in the White House and more than one fourth of that time was spent trying to get renominated by his party and reelected.

TRUMANS argument is shot full of holes when you consider the President is the leader of his party, and is greatly responsible for the reelection of others running under the banner of. his party. He would thus be cognizant of this responsibility throughout his term, and should be interested in the welfare of that party. Remember about halfway through the season when the sports writers were playing the dirge for the fallen Cowboys? Although I hated to see it, that comeback in the Atlanta game - to eliminate the Electoral College and have the actual popular vote decide who becomes President has come up after every election for 50 I am convinced it will years. No decision to change it has been made,and who did not House White receive a not be maA until we get someone in the all will of the I hear we four for then years of the popular vote, majority told you sos and something will be done. Another area of the Presidential election that bears looking into is a universal nominating process in each state to choose the delegates to the party conventions. And, now that we have a rather .involved control over donations to the candidates, why not have a restriction on the length of time a A decision t By Doug Whey a review- candidate can actually campaign for election? AN INTERESTING development in politics that could, in time, appear on the national scene is the trend in some states for elected officials to drop party affiliations and operate under a coalition of political philosophies. This has occurred in Nevada where liberals and conservatives have jumped over party lin to vote as liberals and conservatives. In one state the coalitions have banded together for reelection and won. One final area in the political arena that doesnt set right with me is the recent surge of political activist organizations bent on the defeat of certain politicians who do not conform to their particular interests. I guess it grates against the grain because it is not a fight for the election of an individual, but rather a fight to defeat one. It is negative, and it seems almost unfair when an organization with almost unlimited funds and unlimited time can campaign for the defeat of one certain individual. paycheck.

The problem began when I found it impossible to leave Army language at the office and switch to english at home. WHEN I CAME home late one night nd told her I had been to a GI party, she complained that I had all the fun and asked why she wasnt invited. ' One day I announced that I was getting S IIORT . She told me it was because the heels on my boots were wearing down. When I told her Ifelt like Reupping, she told me if I felt sick to do it in the toilet. . I ONCE told her that I had a long conversation with my TOP. She asked me if I ever talked to any of my other toys.

While I was trying to study for a test on NBC, she told me I was wasting my time because all we got on television was CBS and ABC. WORRYING ABOUT getting orders for overseas, I told her that a lot of soldiers were on Levy. She said she had never heard of that stuff, but it sounded better than being on LSD. When I told her that I was getting more Rank soon, she said she certainly hoped not because she had run out of air freshener.' To get even with me, the first thing she does when I come home is talk about the events of all the soap operas shes seen during the day.
