After a preliminary game of "Who has the President's gavel?", the meeting was supposedly started. The meeting was opened by the President saying that he hoped this meeting could be run by parl imentary procedure, which would curtail the utter chaos which pre vailed at previous meetings. Landro, our S.G.A. president, then proceeded to read the minutes of the last meeting which seemed to center around a heated controversy over the all important business of what should be put on dance publicity signs. Landro, then, stated the new business which was a plan to init-duce the students, especially thfc S.G.A., to the S.GConstitution and to parlimentary procedure, of which the S.G.A. seemed entirely ignorant. Tony Greco, chairman of the Student Union Board, asked for the floor and stated that either the S.G.A. back them up on rules for dress at dances, that they had previously ruled upon, or rescind the vote and delegate all responsibility to the SUB. With little further ado, a vote was taken and the motion rescinded, Now, in contradiction to the above hope of following parlimentary procedure, they discussed the matter. The discussion revealed that the S.G.A. had just executed an action in complete contradiction to its Const itution. It was discovered that the SUB is just an administrative arm of the S.G.A. and it was impossible for the S.G.A. to divorce itself from its own responsibility. Then, Landro adjourned the meet ing, but it seemed he could not do this, because the issue was still left in the air; this prob lem was overcome by tabling the proposition until student opinion was known. After attending this unbelievable charade, I no longer wonder why S.G.A. is ineffective and out of contact with the students. I only wonder how they have accomplished what little they have. COLLEGIAN GETS RESULTS On Monday, November 7, 1966, the S.U.B. loudspeakers blurted that the Collegianjiid no research and the facts. Besides noting that we must have done some research to get the facts we supposedly twisted, we have only one comment. We were, pleased to hear the "Voice of High acres" make a positive, though er roneous, statement. The Collegian must take credit for this vast im provement . Peering through the fog, "Our Man Flint" caught the dark outlines of a truck parked on the driveway. Creeping closer, our super sleuth saw a sight for which even his wildest dreams did not pre pare him. Two custodians were sho veling dirt in the holes which pot our beloved freeway! Thanks to Collegian prodding, the administration made the first step toward solving a critical problem.
