tions on organization.

A seven-man committee was
authorized, to proceed with the
selection of charter members and
to continue organizational plans.
The 20 students at the Sunday

George Williams, Robert Dennis,
and Bruce Lieske as their repre
sentatives. The University admin

Dr. Bishop said that as a group
the ODK Circle would not be
come involved in campus politics.
Thus, for example, with all
political parties represented in
ODK, it would be unlikely that
it would, as a group; become in
volved in student politics.
The committee on membership
and organization will begin a ser
ies of meetings this week to de
termine membership standards,
Wellington said.
Dr. Bishop said he did not Seel
that ODK would be duplicator/
in its selection , of members so
as tp be in competition with other
honorary groups because of its
requirements in several areas of
college life.
