Students will register with the All-College
elections committee between Oct. 26 and 30 for
the campus political party with which they
plan to affiliate. The State and Lion Parties

class offices.
Although it is the first time such a registi a
tion plan has been tried, it appears to be c
good thing. However, a discrepancy has already
been found in the system: the Lion Party meet

The Lion Party, long bearer of the dubious
distinction of being the numerically smaller
political party, had a crowd overflowing 121

others standing in the doorways, and still other•
unable to get in at all.
The first business taken up was the adoptio
of the party constitution, which had to be adopt
ed before any business could be transacted.
The constitution was unanimously agreed upon.
Many of those voting, however, will never be
seen at another Lion Party meeting. Many will
never be seen again at any political meeting.
If someone had decided something was wron^

necessary, the Lion Party might have beer

would, moreover, have no recourse, since every
one attending the,meeting was a bonafide mem
ber of the party.
While speaking directly about Sunday night's
neeting, this does not imply the same thing
annot happen to any party,- any time.
Because of this, the clique registration should
be made on a year-round basis, set-up similarily
to the Pennsylvania registration system. Stu
dents could register, change party, or drop their
clique affiliation anytime until a deadline im
mediately before clique meetings. Freshmen
would be given a chance to register between
an explanatory meeting and the first clique
meeting.
The campus politics workshop at the Student
Encampment, which originated the idea of the
egistration, considered only having one meet
ing of the clique before the election. In reports
to the encampment plenary session and since
then, as the idea has been integrated into the
fall semester election code, no mention was
made of the organizational clique meetings.
Theoretically, everything in the clique should
)perate smoothly throughout the year without
,he necessity to reorganize the cliques. How

Hello,
ooking
Short 'Change
"Little Blue Riding Hood" and "St. George and the Dragon Net'.'
have definitely taken hold of the"C'ampus by now, and here's a little
addition I found in the Pacific Weekly. This story appeared under the
headline "Snag Net."
5:57, I was on my way over to a fraternity house for dinner. I had
been given an invitation for the
evening by• Tau Craw, acknow
ledged tops so far as fraternities
go. I walked up the steps and rang
the bell. A pledge let me in.
6:01, A tall, well-dressed- student
came over _and laid his hand on
my knee affectionately. "I'm Ala
baster Partytime, president of
this here frat," he said. "We were
all sure glad you could come, and
we'll do our best to show you a
good time." He went on, "Right
now, our members are preparing
to serenade you with our theme
song." He was right, for off in the
distance I could hear the plain
tive chant of happy actives and
tortured pledges:
"Hubba, hubba,
Goodrich rubba."
7:09, After a delicious dinner
of stewed rice and gruel, I tim
idly ventured a few questions
about the financial end of the
fraternity.
"Well," a member said, "we got
just about the lowest rates on
campus, just $264.87 a month. Of
course," he went on, "meals are
a little extra." Right then and
there I was sold, but the member
then decided to • ask me a few
questions. When I told him I had
a 0.3 average he was overjoyed.
"That's wonderful," he said, "for
a moment I was afraid maybe
you were one of those who stud
ied." He paused and then went
on sadly, "We hate to have any
body that's too smart for their
own britches in our frat. Those
intellectuals who can read will be
the death of us yet"
10:34, I was bid! I'm now a
member of Tau Craw. I was so
happy I rushed immediately over
to Sigh Thigh to tell my girl,
Phallusia Crunk, the good news.
"Why Algy," she said, "that's the
most. I'm so happy for you."
"Phallusia," I said, "Now that
I'm a bonafide member of cam
pus society, I . want me and you'
to go steady." I pinched her and
she slapped me happily.

the professor commented that he

he has taught 25 court cases and
all he has to do is to say "Mar
