Spadaro Quits
As 'Lion' Chairman
Robert Spadaro, Lion Party clique chairman, resigned his
post yesterday.
The. resignation takes effect Sunday, when Lion Party
will meet to elect an entire new slate of clique officers.
.spadaro, much talked about political figure during the
spring elections, said he resigned because his main political
objective had been achieved—po
litical freedom
When asked what he meant by
political freedom, Spadaro said
that previous to this year campus
politicians had their hands tied.
However, he said, this year most
of the barriers were broken and
much more freedom had been
gained.
Explaining how the politicians'
hands were tied, Spadaro used
this year's spring election as an
example. "For the first time this
year," he said, "the parties used
controversial issues which affect
ed the students. instead of dead
planks." The Elections Commit
tee's right to reject party planks
'without allowing for appeal was
rescinded, he said, untying party
hands.
Referred to BX
Spadaro was referring to the
'nook Exchange plank Lion Party
decided to run in the spring eke
!ions. The plank said the party
would work toward allowing the
EX to sell new books. The Elec
tions Committee refused to allow
the plank to be used, but the
Lion Party was accused by the
opposition of running the plat
form informally in spite of the
plank rejection.
Spadaro appealed the commit
tee's decision to reject the plank
to the Supreme Court. The move
♦vas useless as the court upheld
the committee's right to ban
planks.
The committee's sovereign pow
er to reject planks was eliminated
when AD-University Cabinet
adopted an amendment to the
Election Code three weeks ago

Franklin C. Banner
from the University of London.
While in England, Banner was
elected an honorary member of
the London Press Club and later
a member of the Royal Institute
of Journalists.
In 1926, Banner returned to this
country and accepted an instruc
torship in English and journalism
at the University. Journalism
courses, which that year had five
students seriously interested in
newspaper work, could boast of
50 within a two year period after
his arrival.
Banner sparked interest in the
journalism courses by inviting

editors and prominent men in the
newspaper field to lecture during
his classes. As a reward for his
efforts, Banner was made head
of the school of journalism in
1931, a post he held until last year
when he was scheduled to retire.
However, when a new depart
ment head failed to accept the
position, Banner condescended to
stay on "for one more year."
World Traveller
During his summer vacations
and sabbatical leaves, Banner has
arranged lengthy trips abroad. He
has been around the world three
times, and has visited every coun
try in the world.
While he was barnstorming
through the jungles of Africa dur
ing one journey, Banner spied a
giant zulu .warrior sitting on a
tree stump roaring his head off.
Upon closer inspection, Banner
recalled, it turned out the native
was reading an African transla
tion of the pcpular comic strip s
"Maggie and Jiggs."
Plans to Build
After his retirement this month,
Banner plans to move to South
ern California where he will build
a house for his sister and himself.
Speaking about the students at
the University, Banner was
amazed how most of them prove
themselves capable after gradua
tion in coping with problems of
their profession.
