Page Two Gadabouls Head Weston ls criticized For Danae Goals In a controversy that develr oped lollowing last month's Homecoming dance, the prin— cipal locus of student com- plaints has been the fact that Gadahouls Chairman Ernest Weston paid students a total of also to decorate Darby Gym- nasium. “We just couldn’t find volun- teers to do the wor ," said Weston, who is also president of the Council of House Presi- dents. “The students were paid the regular student wage of $1.30 per hour." Weston said he had time and wage figures for all the student workers if anyone wanted to see them. Social Coordinator Jon Stein told the 58:3 he felt the mat- ter had been poorly handled, but pointed out that not just Weston, “but the whole social coordinating committee has had problems finding people to work. If a job has to be done and nobody volunteers to do it, then you have to pay to have it done.” Stein said that his principal objection, as well as that of many other students, was the way in which the students 7 nearly all of them friends of Weston — were hired. “In the future, if we decide that Stu- dents will have to be paid, we will hire them through the regular student placement service," he said. In previous years, students have not been paid for dec- .orating Darby, although stu- dents who have worked during the dance itself received a wage. On occasion student workers were invited to a party, which seldom exceeded 330 in cost.

A report compiled by Ralph Pomerenk, (Business Manager and Administrative Supervisor of the Servtce Bureau), entitled “Comparative Data on Food Service and Related Items at some Liberal Alts Colleges,‘ was distributed. Eighteen schools, not all served by SAGA, were l'eprec sented in the data, Thirteen of these schools have systems ree quiring students to show meal cards or ID cards at meals, The majority of the schools have no special options for students in reSldence halls. The committee feels students must realize that runner op tions for fewer meals may cost more than the present full board arrangement. The college will be considerll'lg various options after costs have been estimated. Student opinion Will be soliclted. At last week’s SAC meeting, President Leggett presented possibilities for a statement on disruptive activities Within the college community. Discussion centered on content, rhetoric and the necessity of having such a statement. (Leggett last week decided not to release the statement.)

In Student Power news, the heralded Student P o s i t i o n Paper went to the printers cn Wednesday, and is due for dis- tribution to the entire campus. The big Senate meeting in Roberts Theater next week Will be on Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on when the printer can get the work done. Last wcek several of the Com- mittee chairmen in the Power Movement were ccntacted by Presidcht Leggett and invited to a meeting with the Executive Council. The students responded by inviting the council to a meeting that they called. and at the meeting lniormed the Executive Council that they were not prepared to speak for the student body, and couldn’t say anything about the Fashion Paper until it was released and approved by the student Senate with the student body in at- tendance at a mass meeting. Social Coordinator John Stein announced the Nov, 12 deadline for application lor film chair- man for next semester. In- terested students should contact Stein or Frank Thomas.

Frank Thomas announced that any student who had business to take before the Stil- dent Affairs Committee should Contact Jim Lew, Frank Thomas, Ernest Weston, or Jane West, and arrangements will probably be made. Come municatlon between the Student Affairs Committee and the strident body has so lar been nil. In other action, Tom Thomas questioned the propriety of the Social Coordinating Committee paying students for decorating Darby oymno um lot the Homecoming Dance, The total amount of wages paid was approximately 3150. Assistant Coordinator Steve Schwartz pointed out that ill the past dec- orators weie given a tree pizza party, a considerably less ex- p e n s i v e undertaking. The Senate passed a motion calling the Social Coordinating to formulate a ’c pclicy on this issue, subject to the approval of the Senate. The Senate Tuesday also passed a resolution urging the college community to support the “Chicago Conspiracy a" by making donations to a campus fund, and allotted $200 to help defray expenses for studcnts planning to attend the National Vietnam Mobilization March on Washington On Nov. 15. (See rec Iatod stories in this issue.) Finally, Larry Frank informs me that some 70 or more stu- dents want to go to Washington lcr the Mobilization. Anyone else interested in going should contact Larry as soon as possible. The large number of students interested so far is ab- solutely incredible.
