Pollock Council Votes Down AIM Proposal Pollock Council last night voted against the AIM Board of Control proposal 10-2 with one abstension. The majority f eeling of the council was that a student judic iary body was undesirable and would give both the Dean of Men's office an d student go ver n ing bodies too much power over students. Another reason given was that such a setup would con flict with powers already desig nated to dormitory counselors. The council also voted unani mously against the McCoy seating plan. General opinion, was that the student body and ihe alumni were both too big to be handled simultaneously at Recreation Hall events. A complaint from Food Super visor Bruce Robertson over the theft of 500 sets of silverware was placed before the council. This and other problems between the council's food committee and Rob ertson will be brought up next Tuesday when Robertson will ad dress the group. The Barons, Nittany-Pollock social organization, will get a let ter from the council asking for action on social events.
