chairman of a cabinet committee to
gifts, presented the proposals. The
complaints of unequal publicity.
At that time members of the
Radio Guild told cabinet that
they considered treatment of pub
licity for the gifts in the Daily
Collegian unfair. The gift fund
has been divided between a stu
dent radio station and a student
press.
The five proposals presented by
Lemyre were (1) that a deadline
be set for suggestions for the gift,
(2) that publicity other than that
in the Daily Collegian and by an
established number of posters be
outlawed, (3) that the senior class
gift committee investigate any vi
olation of these rules and subtract
votes accordingly, (4) that equal
publicity be given all gift sug
gestions in the Daily Collegian
and that each sponsoring group
write an article publicizing its
gift suggestion to be placed in the
Daily Collegian, and (5) that cab
inet provide funds for publica
tion of 100 posters which would
give publicity to all suggestions.
Publicity Control Difficult
The first three of Lemyre’s pro
posals were passed by cabinet by
unanimous vote. The fourth and
fifth proposals, however, were ap
proved only after amendment.
The fourth proposal, that the
Daily Collegian give equal pub
licity to all gift sugges t i o n s,
caused considerable, discussion
.among both cabinet members and
others at the meeting. David Pell
nitz, editor of the Daily Collegian
and representative of the Board
of Publications on cabinet, told
cabinet that complete control of
stories was impossible and that
the articles written by the spon
soring groups would be used only
after editing.
Pellniiz *Proposes Change
Ross B. Lehman, assistant ex
ecutive secretary of the Alumni
Association, told cabinet that it
was unfair to ask for control of
news stories. “What if something
more important than a gift story
turns up on a day when the story
is planned,” Lehman said. “Would
cabinet still ask Dave to give it
the preferred space?”
Pellnitz then proposed an
amendment to the proposal which
would insert the words “in as far
as possible” to the fourth pro
posal. The proposal with the
amendment was then passed.
The fifth gift proposal that
cabinet provide for posters—was
