CAMPUS OPINION
Attitude Toward Apathy
By MALINDA BERRY:
Contributing Editor '1
and ANDREW ORLIN
Today students go to the polls to -
ect eight members to Student
overnment Council.:"

Interest in Council reaches a
peak at election time. But. even
now how interested are students in
the body that supposedly repre-
sents them? Although nearly all
the students interested in a recent
Daily survey were in favor of
maintaining student government
in some shape or form, few were
interested in SGC as such and
fewer still cared anything about it.
Of the 27 people questioned, four
had voted in almost all of the
elections for which they were eli-
gible, and six had voted in about
half. Eight voted in at least one
but less than half of the elections.
Nine had never voted.
Only five of the students showed
enough interest in Council to have
attended one or two of their meet-
ings.
Although most of those ques-
tioned could not explain how SOC
benefitted the student, they had
faith that it did something-even
'though they didn't know what.
Student ignorance of the function
and raison d'etre of Council was a
prevailing theme in, the interviews.
Carolyn Teich, '67, said that she
was "not aware of any benefits to
me as a student from SGC."
Carol Horvath, '64, felt separate
from Council. She believed it
should deal with issues more di-
rectly concerned with student life
-such as women's hours. SGC
"goes to far afield with national
issues," she said.
Mike Cook, '67, shared the feel-
ings of a number of others when
he said "if SGC has done anything
for me, I don't know about it."
John Patterson, '64, questioned
the amount of power. that SGC
wielded and held that "if it has no
power there is no student respon-
sibility to participate in it.' Most
of the other students questioned;
were also dubious as to the amount
of actual power that Council pos-
sesses, besides that of public opin-l
ion.
Patterson felt that if Council+
bad "no executive functions, it
might be better to abolish SGC."
Cook also commented on Coun-1
cil's amount of power. "It doesn't]
have much-it's a typical student
organization."l

COUNTING BALLOTS-Although students like these will be kept
up a good part of tonight counting ballots in the SGC election,
there have been some questions of whether a large enough number
of students have real interest in the results.

One student, a sophomore in the
literary college, said that he
thought SGC had a very limited
amount of power. "It's mostly a
rubber stamp outfit. The Adminis-
tration gives it a series of choices;
therefore, it can't go wrong with
its decision.'
Kipp Franklin, 466, however,
felt "Councilhas just about as
much power as a student organiza-
tion, is entitled to-consultation,
recommendation and representa-
tion. The final authority must rest
with the administration."
She did not think it should be
abolished, however, because "I
don't know how students would
speak up without it."
.Some of the critics of Council's
ability to get things done felt that
with a reorganization or increased
publicity Council could become
"our arm for power." Joseph
Tigue, '66; urged better publicity
of issues to foment discussion and
stimulate interest.
Jan Edwards, '65, accused SGC
of "being all tangled up. It doesn't
know what it's doing, why it's set
up, what its areas of concern are,
or where its interests lay. It could
use clarification."
Samuel Gonzales, '64, claimed
that SGC was "active enough in
promoting itself" but did little else
of importance outside the mem-
bership issue. He ,claimed that

functions like the scheduling of
events were a sign of inactivity
because they were 'Mickey Mouse.,,
A number of student agreed with
Gonzales in his opinion that Coun-
cil's inactivity is in large part due
to student apathy.
Paul Bernstein, '64, summed up
a prevailing student sentiment
when he said "I don't really give
a damn about SGC one way or
the other."
Many students were hesitant to
say very much one way or the oth-
er about SGC for lack of any fac-
tual background on the subject.
The only issue Council was asso-
ciated with in the student mind is
the recognition issue raised by Re-
gents' by-law 2.14-"that frater-
nity business."
A majority of those interviewed
had heard of the new parties
SGRU and SURGe but felt that
they would have very little effect
on the election or on Council.
Most students felt that the Uni-
versity doesn't provide a uniting
force for students. They had little
hope that SGC could do anything
to provide this uniting force in
the future. When asked what is-
sues Council would have to take
up to get their interest, they could
think of few things outside of wo-
men's hours. However, when SGC
did consider this issue in the past
the campus didn't suddenly unite
and speak as one.

Notes New
Red Chinese.
A dvances
By THOMAS B. FRIEDMAN
"Scientific achievements. in Red
China are increasing daily. The
United 'States can not any longer
afford to remain ignorant of these
achievements or persist with its
generally distorted picture of Red
China," Sir Gordon Sutherland
said yesterday.
Formerly a physics professor at
the University, Sutherland is now
director of the National Physical
Laboratory in England. He re-
cently returned from Red China,
where he observed the laboratories
and universities in and around
Peking.
Incomplete Picture
"Our picture of Red China is
incomplete," he continued "It is
dangerous not to know what one
quarter of the population of the
world is doing."
He said that the University has
ignored several Chinese journals,
and added that it would be a mis-
take for the University not to re-
ceive the journals in the near
future.
Fine Equipment
"Their laboratories have fine
equipment of their own design as
well as imports from Britain, Ja-
pan and Denmark," he said." The
leaders, are not afraid to work."
Their research is similar to that
of the United, States and Britain
in specific fields such as sonic ex-
periments and crystal and mole-
cular structure.
Similar to West
Peking University is similar to
many Western institutions, he
said. The enrollment is kept at
11,000 and over 60 per cent of the
students have scholarships. In re-
turn they, as well as all other stu-
dents, are required to work six
months . a year of manual labor.
This is to prevent the students
from losing contact with the peo-
ple, he said.
Informal Feeling
Sutherland's general impression
of China was that "the country
had a pleasantly informal atmos-
phere where one has a feeling of
being among civilized people. The
economic conditions are improv-
ing and the people are not in
abject poverty as in India."
He noted further that the
Western world should begin ex-
changing scientists with China.
England has already begun. "The
Chinese want to manage on their
own and do not want to depend
heavily on Russia," he noted.
