The party is open to all stu dents, regardless of their past political affiliations. Purposes and reasons for form ing the third party, according. to John McMeekin, an organizer of the party, are: 1. To propose and promote par ticipation in student government. 2. To provide capable student leaders to fill positions of respon sibility in student government. 3. To provide all students with a democratic opportunity for rep resentation in student govern ment. McMeekin said yesterday that he felt student government should take a more active part in campus issues and that party candidates should have a chance to be elect ed on what they intend to do and their capabilitibs, rather than on a platform of planks such as "no Saturday classes." The party has submitted its constitution for approval by the Senate Committee on Student Af fairs subcommittee on organiza tional control. Ross B. Lehman, chairman of the subcommittee, said yesterday that any group may hold organizational meetings until the time of the committee's approval. If Lehman's subcommittee ap- I proves Campus Party's constitu tion it will be sent to the Senate Committee on Student Affairs. The final stop in obtaining a charter will be the vote of the University Senate. The party can not go into elec tions without a charter approved by the Senate.
