lege's delegation to the regional
convention of the National Stu
dent Association to one student,
and to continue membership in
the NSA for one year on a trial
basis.

require membership in the region
al organization in order to be a
member of the nationaL He said.
the region could not be swayed
from its views by the votes of
College's delegates.

the delegation will help cut ex
penses. Joe Somers, president of
the Association of Independent
Men, said he believed the pro
posal, while cutting costs, would
also cut experience. Cabinet pays
$l5O dues to the national and $6B
to the regional, Smoot said.

mendation by William O'Malley,
chairman of the Senior Prom
committee, that chairmen of the
Senior Ball committee receive two
complimentary tickets instead of
the one they now receive. O'Mal
ley said he felt' chairmen should
receive more recognition for their
work at the prom than members
of cabinet, who also areceive one
complimentary ticket each. The
recommendation would bring the
Complimentary ticket total to 47
and the committee's total to 11,
O'Malley said.

tee chairman be a member of the

tee.
