The E Street Band provides
Springsteen with the perfect
backup. They've played togeth-
er long enough so that they can
virtually read Springsteen's
mind as on "Meeting Across the
River" which opens with the
sweet, almost desperate sound
of a trumpet that fits perfectly
with the mood of the song.
But most of all, it is Spring-
steen's use of the studio to or-
chestrate his city landscape that
makes this the fines rock album
since Blood on the Tracks. On
songs like "Born to Run," he is
clearly moving toward a tech-
nique that allows a perfect blend
of '50's and '60's rock in a 70's
atmosphere.
In Born to Run, Bruce Spring-
steen has taken material that

havior mod program was the
only successful method he has
tried for stopping the habit.
"Now, I feel I have a lot of
'psychological tricks' I can use
to reinforce quitting," Feldt
said.
These "tricks" fall under the
technical title of "self-manage-
ment training." Papsdorf com-
bines four basc ingredients to
help people quit.
-Image-formation: The smok-
er learns a type of "mind con-
trol," to ward off the urge to
light up.
-Relaxation exercises: These
posed a problem for some. "One
way we learned to relax was to
sprawl out on the floor," a par-
ticipant said. "But I never got
used to the idea of doing it in
the Fishbowl, between classes -
and that was when I needed it
most."
-Social commitment: The
smoker decides when to quit and
has to tell others about it.
-Reinforcement: If the par-
ticipant starts smoking again,
he or she has to give up a "high-
probability activity" for each
cigarette that day. The partici-
pant must forego another regu-

lar habit, such as reading The
Daily, having a beer in the aft-
ernoon, etc., for each time he or
she yields to the tobacco temp-
tation.
PAPSDORF said that of all
participants reporting to him
after three months, 40 per cent
had remained abstinent. He
claimed this was an above-
average figure for this type of
program.
Before developing his current
"self-management t r a i n i n g"
program, he experimented with
"aversive conditioning." The
participant had to smell butiric
acid, which has the aroma of
rotten eggs, while smoking a
cigarette. The goal was to de-
velop an unpleasant association
with smoking in the partici-
pant's mind, making smoking
"feel" undesirable.

ATTENTION ALL
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS !
NEW
SGC ALLOCATIONS POLICY
SGC should use its resources (finances and offices> to
provide services for students and student organizations rather
than giving away cash allocations. In the past, SGC has allo-
rated resources to specific groups: this policy benefits only a
very small segment of the student population. Furthermore,
through this policy, SGC monies have been dispersed and more
widespread benefits are possible.
Theoriginal purpose of SGC allocatons was to aid newly
formed organizations. Allocations rarely exceeded $30, but gave
groups a chance to become.self-sufficient. This policy should
be reconsidered, SGC should realize that it cannot and should
not be expected to flnnd all student organizations and events.
SGC's office facilities should be more available for use by
student groups. The SGC workroom could, in the course of a
year, benefit many groups working on large short-term pro-
jects. Use of one of SGC's mimeograph machines could pro-
vide student groups with a low-cost method of campus publi-
city. The potential is there; all that is needed is creativity
in utilizing it.
The funding of a Student Organizations and Event In-
formation Center on the fourth floor of the Michigan Union,
providing a central location and telephone service for informa-
t"on on student groups and student events is more essential
for students in the long run than any ten allocations the
Council could give this year. That center could be of aid to
hundreds of organizations and thousands of students in an
average year.
ALLOCATIONS POLICY -
When allocations are granted, it is essential that SGC
have a set policy controlling the wind and amount of alloca-
tions it can grant in any given period of time. Allocations
should be spread throughout the year to give equal chance to
programs, organizations, and events arising later in the year.
The word "allocations" in this policy refers to allocations and
grants to student organizations and other external groups.
SGC's allocation policy shall include:
1. For this policy to go into effect, a simple majority vote of
Council is required: for this policy to be altered before Sep-
tember, 1976, two-thirds vote of the whole number of votes
on Council is required. During the first three weeks of Sep-
tember, 1976, this volicy may be altered by simple majority
vote of Council. After the first three weeks of September,
1976, two-thirds votes of the whole number of votes on
Council is required.
2. Allocations may bA made at any meeting of SGC; for any
external allocation to be granted, a two-thirds-roll call vote,
upon second reading, is required. Allocations may be made
only to recognized student organizations. All allocations are
considered by SOC, in the order received, as a block in the
SGC agenda.
3. Total allocations for the year are limited as provided for in
the SGC budget paissed in September.
4. All allocation requests should be submitted by Tuesday at
5 p.m. to receive a first reading. Requests should be sub-
mitted on a form urepared by the Treasurer for that pur-
pose. All requests should be reviewed by an allocations re-
view committee which shall consist of three Council mem-
bers and the Treasurer. The purpose of the committee will
be to review and make recommendations to SGC on all re-
quests. Any request coming from the Third world Coordi-
nating Council shall be exempt from committee review. The
organization requesting an allocation shall provide sufficient
copies of their completed form for the Council.
5. There shall be no discussion between organizations seeking
allocations and SOQ during first reading. Rather, first read-
ing shall consist of recommendations for the Allocation Com-
mittee.
6. Any organization receiving an allocation which later produces
money above expenses shall return to SGC 50% of the dif-
ference between income and expenses up to the amount of
allocation within two months after the income above ex-
penses has been incurred.
7. SGC shall have a regular procedure for monitoring alloca-
cations and the use of allocated student money. SGC shall
require the officers of an organization to sign a legal state-
ment making them liable personally for repayment of an
allocation if a proper accounting is not submitted to SGC
detailing the use of allocated funds by two months after
the allocation has been granted. Such a report shall be sub-
mitted every two months until the ultimate use of funds
has occurred, per 4he judgement of the SGC Allocations Re-
view Committee.
8. This policy supercedes all SGC rules except the Constitution.
9. No loans shall be granted to any external organization.
