In order to emphasize entire student participation and enthusiasm, the S.G.A.G. is allowing freshmen to compete for cheerleader. Pinkerton gave candidates information President the concerning the position and tryouts' at a meeting earlier this week. Elections will take place at in the near an assembly future.

The cream of the cream, the students of both sexes who will have the highest prestige for their awards, the ones with the brightest prospects, will be the 24 Marshall Scholars. They , will be picked next month. Applications must he in at the San Francisco regional headquarters, British Consulate-General- , 343, San-som- hospital in Provo, where it provided entertainment, led group singing, and visited with the patients in several wards. These trips proved to have a definite educational value. The members of the group gained both an understanding of the patients and an appreciation for an institution of this type. At the end of each visit, a psychiatrist or other authority talked to the group on such subjects as: The purpose of such a hospital. the organization within the hospital, the changes and improvements which have been made during recent years, the different methods of handling Patients, and the treatment of various mental disorders. WHINGS will again be the ttost active part of SCM. You dont need a special talent to belong to the WHINGS or to Participate in its activities. The only requirement is a lot of enthusiasm mixed with a desire to help and understand these people. The launching of this years student activities program is markedly characterized by its newness. In other words, your student administration has been faced with the reality of planning events without the reassurance of past experience. In some cases this was necessary owing to the significant changes in phases of student life (budget, emoll-menetc.). But the spirit to attempt new ventures cannot be discounted. This has had due effect on the actual programming. (I had hoped that this was abvious, but general impressions of the criticism seems to believe this assumption.) e in ii w n r rr uments must accompany applications. The date has had to be advanced because of the ever - increasing realization that a Marshall can be the key to a brilliant future. You dont necessarily have to be a big brain to win a Marshall. Selectors insist on all - round development, contributions to University life and potential ability to be useful to understanding. An major subject is a great inducement to selectors: (most candidates pick Economics, History or Greats) Women students are particularly invited to enter for some reason they are shy of trying for a Marshall. The Western U.S. is guaranteed at least four of the scholarships. The winners will be granted passage to, living expenses and tuition at any of Britains 24 Universities for a period of at least two years from next fall. off-be- IK's Pledge Four On Wednesday night, October tenth the Westminster chapter of the Intercollegiate Knights pledged one of the smallest groups in their history. The four men that pledged the organization are: Spyros Popageorge, Graham Reynolds, Kay McBride and John Dawson. The IKs report that they are looking for a large pledge class next semester, as the majority of the entering men students were not eligible this semester. If the new pledges maintain their academic standing and meet the other requirements of the IKs they will be initiated in the early part of December. The amendment to reor gani.e (he Student Government Association Council has received your approval and .subsequent action is in process to comply. Jhe passage of this proposal Is interpreted by the student administration as a step fore-- ' ward and gives a sense of direction and confidence to the future of., student government. The forthcoming election of our cheerleaders will present two recent developments. Perhaps, the foremost in the S.G.A.C. approved motion to permit the candidacy of freshmen. While the other aspect is the change in the line of election from spring to fall. The reasoning behind these moves was essentially that since cheerleaders are not needed in the early fall, the election was not necessary during the spring semester. And, since the freshman class would be a part of our student body, their enthusiasm should not be restricted. The freshman talent assembly was held last Friday night. The time change is another new program leing atlemtpeti Halloween dance, to which the entire student body is welcome. The Stag or Drag dance will be held in the Student Lounge.

Congratulations to the planners and participants. With the reorganization of the Council and the new pressures on student government, I hope that criticism will be in the form of suggestions and that success will be the mark of our efforts.

This organization offers the fun that goes with a education as well as in lerious Chris-tiochallenge j thinking and a chance for spiritual growth. SCM and its many activities has something to offer everyone. Last year SCM was divided into several groups, each having its own leader. Deputations was a group which held services, on request, at different churches and other institutions such as the Shriners Hospital. A second group, the prayer cell, met every Wednesday night to have prayer and devotions for those who wished to come. The devotions were led by different members of the group each ' rn n ago. Authoritative speakers, representing different viewpoints on the topic will highlight luncheons at the banquet. Among these will be Clarence K. Streit, founder and long time leader of the controversial Atlantic Community idea. Attending the conference from Westminster will be: Bob Byerline, Judy Durfee, Sharon Pratt, Penny Goldsworthy, Scott Belden, Roger Snow, Chuck Rowe, and Don Gamas. Smith sang Over the Rainbow."
