Two frustrating years of at-
temnpts to reform the structure of
Student Governm9nt Council cul-
minated Thursday night as two
council members submitted a mo-
,tion asking that SGC be per-
manently dissolved.
The drive to make SGC more
responsive to student opinion and
more relevant to the importait is-
sues facing the University began
almost two years .go when Bruce
Kahn (during his -campaign, for
&the SGC presidency) proposed re-
structing ' the council.
The most disappointing phe-'
nomena throughout SOC's life had
been the apathy shown by the
student body toward participating
in what was essentially their own
government. While many people
jvere eager to criticize the "un-
xepresentativeness" of the counci,
it was painfully evident that no
personality or issue could stimu-

said "Brezhnev couldn't have done
beter, referring to Leonid I. Brezh-
nev, head of the Soviet Communist
party.
Allen directed the school board
to temporarily transfer the 10
white teachers whose ouster by the
local group last spring touched off
the controversy and the strike by
the United Federation of Teachers.
The strike closed most of the
city's 900 schols and kept all but
20,000 of the f.1-million students
away from classes.
Allen told the board to suspend
the local group, take administra-
tive control of the district, transfer
the teachers and report to him by
6 p.m. tonight on what it had done
to carry out his orders.
The president of the Board of
Education, Mrs. Rose Shapiro said
Allen "presented a formula that
may ultimately lead to the solu-
tion of this difficult problem. I
hope that all parties will accept
his directive."
In directing the central board
to suspend the community offi-
cials, Allen said the means used

caning for an all-campus consti-
tutional convention. The con-con
proposal set up the machinery for
a complete structural revision of
SGC.
Suggestions presented to the
delegates last March included re-
vising the present council through
changes in its electoral process
system of representation as well
as a, radical proposal for a volun-

entitled to an ex-officio seat and
by an at-large member.
For example, all students living
in Residence Halls are represented
on council by an at-large SGC
member and by the President of;

Willie Horton' strode to the plate,
Usually when the Tigers need
a long fly ball to win a game they
get a strike out. This season
they've been getting the fly ball.
Horton did even better, punching
a single to left center field and
allowing Stanley to trot in from
third with the winning run.
Horton later explained, "When
I'm hitting in the clutch, I tend
to be more careful and not try to
kill the ball. I knew I had to get
the ball in the air (a ground ball
might have been turned into a
double play) and so my biggest
concern was in getting a solid
connection."
As Horton reach first and Stan-

pounced upon Horton.
