First, that religious beliefs are 'derived from the beliefs of our ancestors. Secondly, it is based on proofs handed down from ancient times. Last, we are forbidden to question its authenticity. I To this argument Dr. Freund, commented that the true basis for' (religious belief does not lie int the authority of the past but in; the immediate reality-of the pres-I ent. This is felt through the per sonal experience of each indi vidual. "Freud, a True Scientist" Dr. Freund explained the sci entist's idea was a result of his not being able to see the evi dences of religion through per sonal experience and for that rea son, to Freud, religion was an il lusion. "Freud recognized man's need for communion with God, but he denied the possibility of this com munion." said Dr. Freund. In this belief Freud acted as a true sci entist because he refused to be lieve something that he had not observed himself. NNSYLVANIA , Requirements Raised For Cabinet Posts All-University Cabinet has given first approval to a con stitutional amendment which would require its members to have at least a 2.4 All-University average instead of the pre , sent 2.0 minimum. Cabinet defeated another proposal Thursday night which would have required its members to take the Leadership Training Course The amendment on scholastic requirements must be approved at the next two meetings to be come a part of the Student Gov ernment Association constitution. Sponsored by Howes Lash Howes, president of the Association of Independent Men, who presented' the amendment, said it would not go into effect until next year and would have no bearing on this spring's elec tions. , Howes said the amendment's purpose was to create a "higher academic atmosphere, so that we can be student leaders in the highest sense of the word." He said he did not believe the higher scholarship requirement would eliminat e many student leaders. He cited a tendency of active students with low averages to over-extend themselves and then be placed on academic pro bation. Present Requirements The present requitement for Cabinet membership is a 2.0 min imum All-University average, ex cept that of the All-University president who must have at least a 2.3. Howes' proposal would super cede the scholastic requirements for the college student council presidents, which are now regu lated by each council's constitu tion. The proposal which would have required Cabinet members to take the Leadership Training Course was overwhelmingly de feated. The proposal, which had .been discussed at previous Cabi ' net meetings, was brought up fol lowing the presentation of a final report on last fall's course. Agenda Plan Defeated In other action, Cabinet re versed its stand of a week ago and voted not to mail out its agendas. The plan, which would have cost up to $36 per year, was designed to give each Cabinet member a personal advance copy of the agenda. The members now get agendas at the Hetzel Union desk. Cabinet will not meet next Thursday but will hold a special meeting Sunday, March 17 in 121 Sparks. TATE. NOW 'Oh, Men!
