TIM Tables Amendment
To Create Town Board
Town Independent Men last night voted to postpone for
further study a constitutional amendment to allow for the
creation of a board of town students.
The vote followed comment by James Goodwin, former
TIM parliamentarian, in which he pointed out several articles

He has played ith the bands

-._ Part of the Mingus technique,
Vogue says, depends on his revi
sion of old fingering systems, a
change comparable to Andres Se
goVia's broadening of the guitar's
scope.
Among Mingus' numbers are
"Jump, Monk," a theme dedicated
to Thelonious Monk; "All the
Things in C Sharp," based on an
organ point theme from "Prelude
in C Sharp" and played with "All
the Things You Are" against the
theme; and "Lady Bird," describ
ed as "a study in dynamics for the
average public."
Ugly Man—
(Continued from page one)
the evil fellow riding down the
street on a tricyble.
Kenneth Lesight as the Hunch
back of Notre Dame looked sur
prising like the famous madman
as he frantically rang the bell
in a pasteboard belfry. His black
cape was clutched, his long red
hair waved in the breeze and he
laughed wildly to the crowd. Le
sight was sponsored by Gamma
Phi Beta and Tau Kappa Epsilon.
William Rohm, as the ugly man
of Phi Sigma Kappa, was indeed
At Home With Porker the Pig as
a small black piglet snuggled in
his arms while he threw garbage
to the crowd.
Golden Arm and Pasty Face
The man with the golden arm,
Clyde Miller, was more than fear
ful with his pasty face and hose
draped body. Miller was spon
sored by Kappa Delta and Delta
Sigma Phi.
Ugly as sin itself was devilish
Ronald Griffith, who portrayed a
devil surrounded by fallen an
gels. Griffith's sponsor was Alpha
Chi Rho.
William Straub of Theta Xi was
an Indian killer with an arrow
sweetly stuck through his eye.
Ending the parade was Law
rence Gershman, sponsored by
Pi' Lambda Phi, who played the
ancient oriental Ghengis Gersh
man by trudging down the street
with horns stuck in his head and
casting an evil leer on the crowd.
Sponsored by APhio
The Ugly Man contest, spon
sored by Alpha Phi Omega, na
tional service honor society, will
end tomorrow. Voting by a pen
ny-a-vote system will be held on
the Mall from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
today, and from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
tomorrow.
Final judging will be held in
the Hetzel Union ballroom at
6:30 p.m. tomorrow. The seven
finalists who receive the highest
number of votes will put on a
skit, the winner to be picked on
the basis of individual campaigns,
skits, and originality.

of the constitution neednig re
vision to provide for the amend
ment.
The amendment will be added
to the end of Article five of the
present constitution and will re
ceive a first vote at the next
meeting of TIM to be held at '7:30
p.m. in 209 Hetzel Union.
A twenty-m inu t e discussion
period followed the motion to
table the amendment.
Would Override No Quorum
Lash Howes, who introduced
the amendment, said the pro
posed board would facilitate the
functioning of TIM and would
override the possibility of lack
of a quorum. He pointed out that
TIM is the only student govern
ment body without an executive
legislative council.
Emerio Matos opposed the cre
ation of the board saying it would
eliminate the possibility of stu
dents interested in TIM who are
not on the board from taking part
in determining policy for the
group.
Matos also said he felt student
interest in TIM would drop if a
board were created.
Legislative Powers
The suggested board would be
granted all legislative powers of
TIM and would meet every other
week. A general meeting of TIM
would be held each month. The
organization of TIM would retain
the right to dismiss the board any,
time it felt the board was not
doing an adequate job.
Preceding discussion of the pro
posed board, TIM heard the three
candidates for Association of In
dependent Men president.
Asks More Representation
Howes called for the strengthen
ing of TIM through the creation!
of the Board of Town Students.
The time has come, he said, for
town independents to take a more
active part in student govern
ment.
Howes . criticized the present
set-up under which the total town
and dormitory independent men
are represented by. one cabinet
seat.
The time for more representa
tives for independents on All-
University Cabinet is not next
year but is near, he said.
James Tipton announced his in
tention of withdrawing from the
race• for AIM president in favor
of Howes today.
Winslow Gives Platform
Benjamin Winslow said his
platform included the enlarging
of the social and recreational pro
gram of the independent student.
He also suggested a system of;
lockers to be placed in several'
buildings on campus which could ;
be rented by the semester.

panies will interview June and August

'Humorous
Signs Made
For Grass
The landscape division of the
Physical Plant expects to begin
placing the humorous keep-off
the-grass signs about campus to
day.
The signs, an annual project
of Alpha Phi Omega, national
service fraternity, include such
quips as "Please, Us Nightcrawl
ers Are Sleeping," "Ouch, Your
Feet Are Killing Me," and "Please,
I'm Young and Tender."
The division, having completed
its spraying program, is how in
the process of reseeding, fertiliz
ing, and g en er al shape-up of
campus lawns.
Walter W. Trainer, head of the
division, said yesterday that about
four or five robins were found
dead near the stream at the Presi
dent's Mansion.
He theorized that buds for the
overhead elm trees, which were
sprayed with a solution including
DDT, fell in the stream. The DDT
probably k ill e d. the robins, he
said, adding that he knew of no
other such cases.
The division is removing plants
and shrubs from the area where
the new women's dorms are be
ing constructed. Ground was
broken on the dorms, to be sit
uated along E. College avenue be
hind Simmons Hall, on Monday.
The plants and shrubs are being
transplanted to other sites on
campus.
Work will soon begin on the
Amy Gardner Memorial Gardens,
situated east of the Home Eco
nomic building. The garden, first
planted in the spring of 1953, will
be enlarged, Trainer said. The
broadleaf evergreen and flower
garden is expected to be in full
bloom by Mother's Day.
Froth Candidates to Meet
Students interested in writing
for Froth will meet at 7 tonight
in 218 Hetzel Union.
