Richard Christian, chairman of the IFC committee, said at last night's Council meeting he will present a mimeographed re port of the committee's findings to each member of the Senate committee. Christian emphasized that fra ternities which had not responded to the questionnaire survey taken on the issue should turn back the questionnaire by Wednesday so Thursday's report can be com plete. An IFC proposal on the audit issue was presented to the Senate committee at its last meeting, but the report accompanying the pro posal was deemed inconclusive be cause only about 50 per cent of the fraternities had replied to the survey, and the issue was tabled. IFC began work on the issue when the Senate committee proposed that all student or ganizations. including frater rflies and sororities, be re quired to have a yearly audit of their books and present the audit figures to the University. The counter-proposal from IFC presented at the last Senate meet ing would require proof of a yearly audit to be presented to the University, but would not ask that the figures of the audit be released.

The Senate had said that Paniiel should consider the compulsory audit, Christian ex plained, since the original pro posal also included sororities. IFC last night tabled a propo sal to eliminate 'the fraternity Panhel sing from competition and sorority that wins the WC in the following year's sing. The proposal. presented by Edward Hints: chairman of the Greek Week committee, says that the two winners would be asked to sing as an honorary group at the sing the year after they had won. Hintz said withdrawals in the sing competition have been stead ily increasing, and that some fra ternities and sororities feel they "aren't able to meet the compe tition" of the sing. He said he thought eliminating the past year's champions would increase participation in the event. The proposal as presented to the council would go into ef fect irnmecliately and would prevent the winner of last year's sing competition from participating, except in an hon orary capacity, in this year's competition. . The proposal was tabled by a rvoice rote so fraternity presi !dents could discuss it before their chapters.
