MC at Peace with SGA After what seemed three weeks of war about the JRC voting issue, peace was finally restored on the SGA Monday evening. Due to a total of three proposed amendments to the SGA con stitution, a committee was set up to review and make changes a compromise of the three to be presented to the SGA in two weeks. Members of the committee include Cindy Arnold, Jim Armstrong, Bob Lammery, Vic Kopnitsky and Mike Chiricuzio. The committee was set up by Chiricuzio after Tom Ruff presented a second petition for the JRC vote and Jim Armstrong proposed an amendment to the voting structure of the SGA. Both r f~~.r sufficiently aroused, there is a chance to see a brief scene from the production on the Bea Can field show at 9 a.m. Tuesday, April 30. Members of the cast will appear on the show with a highlight from the current production and Mr. Selco, the director, will discuss the present show and the future.athe theatre program at Behrend.

It will be presented in the Studio theatre which has been converted into another imaginative theatre space by the various crews working on the show. Don't forget, tickets go on sale tomorrow, Friday, and the tickets and are limited. Buy early and don't be disappointed. For those Behrend students who have already decided to walk and have obtained sponsors there are a few tips that make the walk a bit more comfortable. First of all food and water will be provided at the check points but plan a very nutritious break fast before leaving. Also extra socks are advised. Heavy wool socks and sturdy, comfortable shoes are recommended; new shoes tend to lead to misery as do tennis shoes and moccasions. After the first few miles, walking is warm business so do not overdress. You will not need much money but do carry enough change for phone calls. It is best not to sit around too long at check points. You will stiffen quickly if you are not a seasoned walker. Remember to walk at a rate which is best for you in order to conserve your energy and finish the entire walk. Remember, rain, shine or snow the walk will take place. All students must have -their Pennsylvania State University Identification cards from now on in order to charge out books from the library. The Library is changing its system to a more up-to-date one. Students not having their identification will be required to use the book in the library. by Bud Ore Staff Writer amendments called for changes in the membership of the council. Armstrong's proposal was to reset the present structure as follows: the SGA would be made up of the executive board, (president, first vice-president, second vice-president, etc.) which would get five votes. Next would be the class presidents getting a total of four votes with a total of three votes going to the three academic colleges on campus. The dorm and com muters would have one vote each plus there would be an additional three overall votes. This would give a total of seventeen mem bers on the board. The JRC proposal was very similar except that Joint Residence Council would receive one vote and there would be three representatives from each of the three classes. This proposal would not have the overall vote and didn't make any mention of a commuter vote. In the JRC proposal a total of 24 members would sit on the SGA. All three proposals were with drawn pending the decision of the committee on constitutional revision. In other business, Dr. David Daniel formally submitted his resignation to the SGA as their advisor. He will be taking a leave of absence during the next year Kolb Lectures Charles C.
