A new vote system will be used

it will replace the Hare system,

Instead of numbering all the
candidates in order of preference,
as under the Hare system, each
voter is allowed a number of votes
equalling one-half the number of
positions plus one. Those candi-
dates with the most votes win.
Under the Hare system, each can-

University President Harlan
Hatcher yesterday urged students
with alleged grievances against the
University to s e e k solutions
through Student Government
Council and other established
channels of oommunication with
the administration, rather than
through protest demonstrations.
He made the statement at a
meeting with 25 representatives of
Voice political party, the Stu-
dent Action League, the Student
pas Employes Union and SGC. From
the administration were vice-
es presidents: Wilbur K. Pierpont,
nt business and finance; Roger W.
'h Heyns, academic affairs and
'e- James A. Lewis, student affairs.
e For the most part, the Presi-
dent simply listened to the stu-
dents' charges, making little at-
tempt to rebut them. The vice-
presidents said nothing during the
=meeting.
The President told the students
University problems should not be
viewed "as barriers erected by' an
orge blockading the wad to edu-
cation."

Eliminations
At various stages in the secon-
dary system, examinations elim-
inate some studehts from the elite.
About 10 per cent are finally ad-
nitted to the universities.
These are considered the most
capable of youth. The aim of the
universities is to develop in them
an aptitude for handling a great

Those eliminated are free to
take other advanced educational
opportunities but are usually un-
able to get into the universities.

pressure for more equal educa-

said.

By JOHN BRYANT
"The 'Nazi' in the American
Nazi party is a mere publicity
device. One needs to get atten-
tion somehow for his political
beliefs. This is merely my way
of getting my views aired and
ensuring myself a large, if hos-
tile, audience."
So said the Nazi party leader
George Lincoln Rockwell. In-
terviewed before his speech at
Hill Aud. last night, Rockwell
outlined his party's plan of ap-
pealing to the intellectual and
working-class elements of socie-
ty by two different approaches.
"Tonight, I'm approaching the
intellectual group. I intend to
win people over to my point of
view by logical means.
"The racist approach plays
upon the natural racist inclina-
tions of the working class and
upon their tendency to see things
as two extremes rather than ac-
cepting parts of both points of
view, as the educated classes
have learned to do."
This approach is all a part of
the party's five-point road to
power.

1) Getting the party known.
"Before you can make any prog-
ress at all you have to be be-
fore the public eye so people can
hear your views."
2) Getting the party believed.
"After the party is well-known,
it is then necessary to convert
people to the party's way of
thinking and thus gain party
supporters."
3) Getting the party organiz-
ed. "Once you have a base of
support you have to convert it
into an organization that can
work to further increase this
support."
4) Getting the party into pow-
er. "If we develop enough popu-
lar support, we can be swept
into office by legal means, the
only means this party will use."
5) Altering the Constitution.
"We might have to make certain
changes in the federal Constitu-
tion in order to carry out our
program o autnoritarian gov-
ernment."
