PENNSYLVANIA AIM Stops Independent Finances A motion to cut off funds for the publication of the Independ ent Newsletter was passed last night by a' 13 to 1 vote by the As sociation of Independent Men’s Board of Governors. Thomas Kidd, sixth semester educatiomnajor said, “The Inde pendent is now a feature maga zine. It serves no purpose for the Board of Governors. The present format is useless.” Robert Schroner, eighth semes ter meterology, said he felt the Independent was “mis-edited and mis-managed.” He, along with Chester Cher winski, was of the opinion that “we cut the editorial policy, but not the paper. A shakeup of the staff would accomplish as much,” Schroner said, “but cutting the funds completely would take much more time for the new lication to be printed.” Kidd explained the board had no right to tell the editorial staff of the Independent anything. “We aren’t the power behind the press,” he said. The editor of the Independent is chosen by appointment of the previous editor with approval of the Board of Governors. Although AIM has dropped sub sidizing the Independent, Leoni des, independent women’s organi zation, is still backing the publi cation. AIM could not completely cur tail the publication because Leon ides is in conjunction with AIM in financial backing of the In dependent. Philip Austin, editor of the pub lication, said the cause of present condition of the Independent was that “AIM meddled until super vision had grown in order to push the ideas of AIM, and not with the attitude of informing.” Austin continued, “The, policy of the Independent has been not to stress news, but rather fea tures.” The Daily Collegian cov- The FOOD 'BUSINESS?
