Seven of its 17 members are studs nts elected by tile student body. The new hoard of directors will have contr'ol over tihe combined func- tions of the present two boards. It -will have two committees, which, in a sense, will replace the present two boards, oneC the financial committee, the other the activities committee. Tihe former will have control, as the name implies, over the finances as well as over tile appointment of the general manager and will replace the present board of governors in func- tion. Tihe latter will have charge of all activities within the Union build- ing and will replace the present board of directors in function. The board of directors which will omo into being if the amendment is passed will be conmposed of 17 ,mem- hers, eight of which will be students, all elected from the student body as a whole or elected as vice presidents to represent tile various schools of the University. For the passing of the amendment, it is necessary to have a quorum of 600 members present at the meeting to i be held Feb. 28 attile Union, and a two-thirds favorable vote on the amendiment. All efforts are being made by tile officials in charge to in- terest as mlamny if tile students in the project as possible and to make the meeting a su~cess. M iss Florence F.
