TJHE MVICHIGAN DAILY - 2 Student Candidates id Vigorous C r paigns Ay _ _. __ i SL Candidates. Answer Daily ElectionQuestions Seven hotly debated questions now going the rounds of inter- ested students and campus groups were ventured by The Daily to the 58 candidates vieing for 23 Student' Legislature seats in the all- campus elections today and tomorrow. The questions, drawn up by Daily editors with the help of SL officials, are a. part of a campus campaign to acquaint candidates with voters and to whip up a hoped-for record of 10,000 votes. * * CANDIDATES HAD THREE choices in their answers, which ap- pear below: "Yes," "No" and "No Opinion." In The Daily's candidate questionnaire, questions left unanswered appear as "No Opinion." Below each set of answers is the candidates statement on "Why I am running for SL." The questions are: , 1. Do you think that Student Legislature should be given full power to approve or disapprove student events to be placed on the University's calendar of events. 2. Do you'think that Student Legislature sh ld work actively to secure removal of possible discriminatory questions from appli- cation blanks to University undergraduate colleges and professional schools. 3. Do you feel that Communist Party members should be al- lowed to participate in the Michigan Forum debate programs if opposed by a competent speaker. 4. Do you think that Student Legislature should ask the Univer- sity to set a time limit within which fraternities and sororities would be forced to remove all discriminatory clauses (based on race, re- ligion or national origin) from their constitutions, or be denied Uni- versity recognition. 5. Would you favor a "student activities tax" of $.10 per stu- dent to be levied at the time of registration, the proceeds of which would be used to support Student Legislature. 6. Do you think that Student Legislature should launch a cam- paign for making the Michigan Union a co-educational organization - rather than its present status as a "men's club." 7. Do you feel that University campus police should be permit- ted to enter student residences to search for liquor or evidence of student drinking. BECAUSE OF LIMITED SPACE and time, candidates were not able to qualify their answers. In question 2, some candidates felt that the questions on application blanks were not discriminatory and answered "No." In question 4, many candidates qualified their answers by stipu- lating a certain time limit on removing discriminatory clauses from fraternity and sorority constitutions.

For years, both the students and the faculty have wanted to be closer to eaclf other-with friend to friend relations, and not com- pletely separated. I think I'd like to help make that a reality and make their dream and mine come true. Pris Ball, '51 1. No opinion 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7.' No opinion. If reelected, I will work toward better organization and efficiency in SL. I want to see .the ideas for projects presented in SL carried to completion (not lost in Com- mittee), and complete records compiled of all work done, for the beneft of future legislators and to prevent duplication of effort. Margee Brewer, '52 1. Yes 2. No opinion 3. Yes 4. No opinion 5. Yes 6. No. 7.

No. The biggest single problem SL faces is that with 8,000 votes it can not really claim to represent the student body. A bigger vote, however, won't be obtained by merely asking students to vote as has been done in the past. They must be shown what SL has done and can do. SL has to be sold to the students, grads as well as un- dergrads. When it is, and only then, wil it have full student sup- port. Phyll Butterfield, 'S1Ed 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. Yes 5. Yes 6. Yes 7. Yes. / I believe that WSSF has not as strong a committee- in Student Legislature as it should, have.

Howard Hartzell, '52 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. I am interested in furthering the new Michigan Forum, the LS&A council and like projects which hold great promise for Mi- chigan's student government. shall contribute ideas toward a sane improvement of SL's struc- ture and procedure. To facilitate study of the many possibilities, I am backing a "Little Hoover Commission" for the legislature. Jack Heikkenen '52F&C 1. Yes 2. No 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. If I am elected to the Student Legislature, I will try and do a better job than is being done now. I believe that I would represent a part of the University that is not at the present time being re- presented, namely the School of Forestry. George Irving, '51 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. There is a great need for Legis- lators, not only to be representa- tive of the students and their higher ideals, but to be responsible to the students and the Univer- sity in seeing that better govern- ment takes precedence over per- sonal desires. I believe that only through responsible legislators can the Student Legislature attain the responsibility that it is fight- ing for. Charles Jaquith, '53 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. No. 6. No 7. No. I feel that the Student Legisla- ture, as it stands today, does not represent a big enough portion of the students. Hence, I feel that the membership should be increased, thus making a fairer representa- tion and also giving to more stu- dents, the experience of office. I also feel that school spirit needs strengthening, for it is only through a mutually united front that we can make the University very strong. Morris Katz, '52 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No opin- ion 5. Yes 6. Yes 7. No. I believe it is the function of the SL to initiate and promote ac- tion dedicated to the best inter- ests of the student body at large. It should further reflect the opin- ions and interests of the student body and should, in relations with the administration, be the official spokesman for the students. Henry Jarecki, 53 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No opin- ion 5. Yes 6. Yes 7. No. Right now students have practi- cally no say on what is to take place on campus. The Student Legislature is an organization that should assume the role of pro- moting the prestige of students' responsibility, both in eyes of the with other campuses (through the NSA), and coordinator of campus groups. The SL must be energee, responsive to student wishes, res- ponsible, and effective in carrying out its aims. I would like to utilize my experience and ideas to strengthen the position of SL and increase its contributions to the student community. Jeff Knight, '51F&C 1. Yes 2. No 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. I desire to serve on the Student Legislature because it would give me an opportunity to serve a two- fold purpose: one, to represent and promote the best interests of Che majority of students; and *Ovo, through working with SL to gain for myself the valuable experience that goes into furthering a demo- cratic group effort. Allen Krass, '53Eng 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. No 6. No 7. Yes. I feel that any government worthy of that name should have the power of limited taxation, but the proposed 10c fee would be nothing more than a gesture in the right direction. At the present time the Union, an organization with a two and one half million dollar surplus, receives seven and one half dollars per year from each male student's tuition. If from fifty cents to one dollar of this fee would be diverted to the SL the Union's efficiency would not be impaired, while the SL would be in a position to carry through such beneficial plans as a student bookstore, student polls, and others which have been shelv- ed for lack of capital. Jerry Kremer, '52 1. Yes .2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No opinion 7. No. It is my opinion that the SL has not been able to carry out its pro- gram effectively simply because of its lack of authority. The lack of delegated power can be attri- buted to the fact that the Univer- sity feels that the SL is not repre- sentative of the entire student body. It is therefore essential that everyone votes in the coming elec- tions to both insure a good legis- lature and prove to the University that the SL deserves more power. Diana Lahde, '52 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. No 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. I think a student governing body is an important part of any edu- cational institution, because it is the voice of the students. The past has clearly shown what SL can do to improve our campus. I think part of the job of SL on our cam- pus is to make school as beneficial, interesting and enjoyable as pos- sible for the students. I would like to be on the inside of our student government working for what I think should be done, rather than standing on the outside and telling others what to do. Ted Laird, '51BAd 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. I desire to serve on the Student Legislature because I believe my ideas reflect the majority of stu- dent opinion and because I wish to participate actively in Student government here at the University. Arlene Lange, '52Eng 1. Yes 2. No 3. Yes 4. No 5. No 6. No 7. No. I desire to serve on SL because I firmly believe in the principles of student government and I want to see the student government we do have act as the voice of the ma- jority of the students and not as the voices of the select few who compose the Student Legislature. ~ I D l Daily-Al Jackson and calibre. By acting as an outlet for student opinion an active, working Student Legislature can freely express student feelings on administrative policy. Ray Litt, 52Eng 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. Yes 5. Yes 6. Yes 7. No. As a very interested student at the University, I feel that work- ing on SL would enable me to aid student government in attaining its proper place in student repre- sentation. Bill McIntyre, '53 1, Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No opin- ion 5. Yes 6. No 7. No opinion. I desire to serve on the Student Legislature because of my sincere interest in student government. I desire to utilize past experience in student government and present knowledge of student problems, in acting as capably and conscien- ciously as I am able-both as an agent and as a trustee of the stu- dents. Paul Malkus, '50 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. Yes 5. No 6. Yes 7. No. The Student Legislature is the legal and effective voice of the stu- dent body. As such, it is the nor- mal place for me to present and work for plans that will benefit both the University Administra- tion and the student body. Co- operation for mutual benefit is my aim. Leah Marks, '52 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. Yes 5. Yes 6. No 7. No opinion. Although my main purpose in running for SL is to aid in the removal of potentially discrimi- natory questions from University admission applications, I also have a great interest in establishing a regularly published SL Newsletter which would keep everyone in- form about the individual SL members and general projects. Doris Melleky, '52 1. No 2. No 3. No 4. No 5. Yes 6. Yes 7. No. I'd like to work toward making the Student Legislature a more powerful organization represent- ing the student body; also to see that the students -get justifiable legislation on their opinions of campus affairs. Jim Moran, '52 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. I would like to see the service functions of the Student Legisla- ture continued and expanded. SL could act as a center for all cam- pus activities, not only in calen- daring but also in providing ex- perience, information, and assis- tance. Al Murphy, '51 1. No 2. Yes 3. No opinion 4. No 5. Yes 6. No 7. No. If elected to the Student Legis- lature, I hope to further the work of the Legislature in representing the student body and to especially promote those interests which are most beneficial to the majority of students, independent as well as affiliated. Jim Nesbitt, 51BAd 1.Yes 2. Yes 3. Yes 4. No 5. Yes 6. No Opinion 7. No. Our student legislature should be an active working body. Since its formation several years ago, it has taken tremendous strides in this direction. If it continues to do so, both student-wide interest and the SL's financial position must be improved. Increased funds for the SL will increase its activity and strength.

Jay Pike, '51 Five University students will battle right down to the election wire today and tomorrow for one vacant seat on the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics. Elected for a, two-year term, the two student representatives on the Athletic Board act as a liason between the athletic department administration and the student body. * * * * Paul Anderson I would like to become a member of the Board in Control of Inter- collegiate Athletics because it controls the athletics on campus. I have been a participant in athletic activities and because of this ex- perience I would now like to have a voice in their administration. * * * a' Bill Konrad If elected to this office, I will take an active part in its business and activities. I will represent the interests of the student body as best I can. Naturally, in such a large University there is a wide difference of opinion, but always there is a majority. If elected, this is the group I will represent. * * * * Don McEwen "I believe the students should have good representation on the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, and I would like to give them that representation. I feel qualified, partaking in athletics my- self, and being a student of the University, to represent the students' interests as fairly and squarely as is humanly possible." Jerome Segal The Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics sets the athletic policy of the University. Since every student is affected by the deci- sions of this board, I feel that 'the student voice on this board should represent the majority opinion of the students on campus on such issues as tennis court fees, football ?programs and such. I will repre- sent the students. +}_ A Five Contestants Battle For Athletic Board Seats N tion because I would like to see the Legislature get interested in some- thing more concrete in connection with the students, rather than the theoretical work it has been do- ing.
