at the Altoona Campus. Behrend
was represented by Tom Bundy.

Tom O'Connor, Terri Totten, Bob

In discussing the role of the
SGA and the Administration it
was decided that the SGA should
take all the responsibility it can
handle provided it can administer
and enforce any regulations which
it envokes. If the SGA fails in
meeting its responsibilities, the
projects would revert back under
the authority of the administra
tion.
A resolution that the bill per
taining to the OSGA conferences
be adopted by the entire student
organization was passed by the
Western division. This proposed
bill would make the summer con
ference for carryover SGA mem
in America. Other works which
the singers presented included
three Spanish Christmas of the
16th century, two duets for two
sopranos by Luigi Cherubini, folk
songs from the British Isles ar

With the expansion program
