NARATIL BARTON D. BASS JOHN J. TIHANSKY egian Council Unveils Constitution The Constitution Committee of Student Council after many hard weeks of work has finally come up with the final draft of a constitution, which is to be submitted to the stu- I dent body for its approval. In writing the new constitution the committee used as a model he con stitution recommended to all Centers by the Intercenter Council Confer ence. Copies of the Constitutions of all the Centers were obtained and were used by the committee as refer ence material. The committee also sought the advice of our faculty and Administration who have had a great deal more experience with student government. As in any Constitution the main article is the article which deals with the powers of the organization for which the constitution is being writ ten. At Highacres, it seems to be the opinion of the students, faculty and administration that the students should control the expenditure of all SGA monies. The constitution to be presented to the students vests this control of SGA fees in the Student Council alone, whose members are the elected representatives of the Student body. The article dealing with the powers of Student Council is quoted below: Article IX—Powers Section 1. The Student Council shall consider and act upon such matters as may be brought before it by the Administrative head, or by any stu dent or faculty member. Section 2. The Student Council shall have the power' to summon any stu dent to appear before it and conduct such investigation as it may deem just and proper. Section 3. Upon any investigation held before the Student Council any member of the faculty may be re quested to attend as a witness or to aid the Council in such matters. Section 4. The Student Council shall have the sole charge of all money collected through the Student Activi ties Fees, and such requests for mon ey by club and student activities must be in writing and presented to the Student Council prior to the sec ond meeting of each new Council. a. The Student Council shall have the authority for requesting all org anizations receiving SG A funds to present reports at any time. b. The Student Council shall not be liable for any unauthorized expendi tures. Section 5. The Student Council shall have the power to vest authority in a subordinate organization. Another change from the present setup of student government was the elimination of the Student Faculty Board. This decision was made by the committee in light of the facts that the Student Faculty Board has not functioned as a group, and that (Continued on page 4) uto --F7).IIVIV .6016^16 Friday, December 15, 1950 Time" Building Drive Now 10 p.c. of Goal Matt Shaw, director of the Activi ties Building Campaign, reports that 10 percent of the $85,000 goal has been reached. Committees driving for funds are again contacting their gift prospects after being temporarily delayed by the storm. As the Collegian went to press labor leaders of the community were meeting at Highacres to inspect the physical plant, the academic pro gram, and special services of the Center. Those in attendance were: Francis Brislin, Intl. Association of Machin ists; Anthony DeCosmo, business rep resentative of theatrical workers; Henry Steibling, Intl. Electrical Workers' Union; Bernard McHugh, and Joseph Rice, representatives of United Mine Workers' Union. Other labor men who could not attend the meeting but indicated an interest in the Center were Daniel McGee, Jos eph Brienza, Thomas Howley, Charles Cartwright, Harold Brobst, Raymond Shore, George Hascher, and Robert Reeser. McGee Speaks On W.A.Z.L. Edward McGee, president of the Student Council, represented the en tire student body at the Hazleton Center on a radio program to pro mote Community participation in the Activities Building Drive over WAZL on Thursday, December 7. Mr. Mc- Gee gave his reasons for selecting the Hazleton Center, a community col lege, to continue his education. In order to organize a concrete plan for club participation in raising funds for the gym drive, all club presidents met with Bill Kaehler, chairman of Student Participation Fund, on December 4. The Women's Organization was the only club to have a definite plan for donating money. The girls held a bake sale in the basement of Deisroth's Depart ment store on December 13. Under the chairmanship of Julia Allen were the following women: Betty Perna, Betty Harlor, Mary Jane Allen, Rita Bradish, Candida Ramovegliz, and Jane Margwarth. Baked goods were contributed by the women students and the faculty wives. Math-Eng. Club Entertains The Math-Engineering Club opened the Center's Christmas Activities on Dec. 8, when they sponsored an All- College dance in Main Building. An unknown band made an appearance with only two rehearsals and were to add new spirit to Penn State Center. Harold Filbert was chairman. The lounge, the dining-room, and the foy er were elaborately decorated under the charge of Harold Kramer. Sand wiches and soft drinks were served after a humorous skit was enacted in the main lounge. Dancing followed until 11:30.
