Senate Should Pass 6 2T Rule
Women': Student Government Association
Senate Committee on implementation will pre
sent a report next week on a drinking recom
mendation pasrc-d by WSGA last fall.
We understand that the implementation com
mittee has worked hard on this report and we
hope that the University Senate will consider
the enforcement procedures adequate for passing
the regulation.
If the refutation i> passed women 21 or over
will be able to drink so long as they always
maintain conduct becoming a lady. The hold up
in getting the regulation passed has centered
around the probk-m of enforcing the new regu
lation.
We hope that the regulation is passed as coon
as possible so that a belter enforcement system
can be developed. Under the present system the
enforcement is carried out almost entirely by
the housemothers. This is agreeable to neither
the housemothers nor the students. Under the
present system it is impossible to have thorough
enforcement.
Were the new drinking regulation to be passed
without a new implementation system it would
probably still result in an improvement over the
present situation. As it stands now, most senior
women are unwilling to enforce the rules be
cause they do not at all times abide by them.
Since enforcement, for the most part, would be
carried out by the senior women, it would be
an improvement to put them in a situation
where they could enforce the regulations with
out expecting the enforcement to backfire on
them at some future time.
We feel that the regulation allowing women
over 21 to drink would encourage enforcement
rather than discourage it. Some students find
the present hypocritical situation somewhat re
pulsive. We would say that the overall attitude

is certainly not enhanced by the ineffective and
unfair method of enforcement. As it is now
many violate the rules and only a few are
punished.
If most of the senior women were able to
act without breaking rules they would be bet
ter able to enforce the rules on the underclass
women. Therefore, even if the implementation
system has weaknesses, it would be advisable
to pass the new drinking regulation because en
forcement would be improved with the new
system.
The drinking regulation would also bring a
certain realism to the WSGA rules. It is cer
tainly advisable to have regulations in accord
with State laws which say that anyone over 21
may drink. Why then should the University
have rules which are even more strict?
We believe that one of the main purposes of
an educational institution is to prepare the
students to be good citizens. In line with this
aim we believe it would be desirable to allow
women to drink in accord with State laws so
that fhey may become acquainted with the social
practice of drinking. Why should the University
shelter women unnecessarily when it will not
make 'them better citizens.
It would be far more practical for women to
become familiar with alcohol when they are
under the supervision of the University. Drink
ing is a Uited States social custom and it would
ing is a United States social custom and it would
educated to it with supervision than when they
are out on their own.
We hope the report of ihs implementation
committee will be well accepted and that the
regulation will be passed. Enforcement will
then improve.
and make TIM the effective group it should be.
However, in order for this council to function
well, it must be composed of competent men
who are willing to attend meetings. Eighteen
town independent men will be elected council
members Feb. 27 and 28 and March 1. All town
independent men will be able to vote.
Choose wisely, and watch Tiny Tim grow.

Ratings on Rise
New Women's Show
Sets Video Trend
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 (/P) —The trouble with men, this
woman was saying, is that they think they know what wo
men want to read or watch or listen to.
- As a result, Donna Douglas said today, women are being
fed on a diet of froth when they really yearn for stronger
stuff.
Miss Douglas thinks this is es
pecially true in her field, which is
television.
"Why, when I first started my .
program," she said, "they kept
saying, ’Why. Donna, you can’i
do this*, or, 'Women don't like
that'."
Well, you know how women
are. Persistent creatures. And
Donna kept hacking away until
she now has a program over
WTOP-TV that, while it still has
froth, also deals with subjects
that are deathly—and lifely—ser
ious.
In cooperation with the District
of Columbia Department of
Health. Miss Douglas has inter
viewed prominent doctors lady
doctors, mostly—on women’s
health.
And they have dealt with
topics that once were scarcely
mentioned in a whisper, much
less discussed right out loud on
TV; Infertility, hysterectomy,
menopause, miscarriages, men
strual difficulties, breast feed
ing and many emotional prob
lems.
The results show the idea is
likely to spread all over the coun
try.
Truman Keesey of the depart
ment, who sets up and writes the
interviews, says this is the fjrst
time such a series ever has been
attempted on television. But, he
says, he’s getting inquiries from
other health departments wonder
ing how to go about similar series.
As for the women—.
Well, there have been some
criticisms, of course. But Miss
Douglas reports her mail is
mostly favorable.
Furthermore, those mysterious
things known at ratings have
crept steadily up, which may
prove Miss D’s point that men
don’t really know what women
want to listen to.
Miss Douglas is a vivacious
blonde who in private life is mar
ried and the mother of two girls.
She thinks the competition she
faces is terrific.
Miss Douglas fights this com
petition by asking the questions
she thinks the women want an
swered but always have been
scared to ask because they might
appear stupid. “I know what these
are,” she said, “because I’m very
inhibited around doctors.”
