PAGE POUR Editorial 0 • inio Can the Winners Sing? A change in the qualification rules for the IFC-Panhel Sing that would deny participation by the preceding year's winning fraternity and sorority will be tossed around by the Interfraternity Council Monday :light. The purpose of this ostensibly is to increase the com petition by breaking the monopoly of a fraternity or sor ority—such as Tau Kappa Epsilon, which has held the title seven years in a row. If IFC believes that banning the winners is the only way to increase competition, this should be done univer sally —lntramurals, activities and every other field of competition. Of course, this plan, or just banning sing winners, ' , would completely ruin the point system set up for the outstanding fraternity award. We hrve said before the award should be abolished, but IFC doesn't see it that way. But we think banning the winners would not increase competition. Instead it would have the opposite effect. Whether some houses do not participate now because of internal problems or other reasons,- they would probably prefer the chance to beat the winner rather than enter a second-rate sing. The more entrenched the Incumbents the more glory mulls for toppling them in open competition. If IFC approved the change, its effect on eligibility would be as bad as that of the rotation system. When a fraternity wins, it does so because of a lot of hard work and organization. Just because it has been triumphant one year is.no reason for it to sit in the audience the following year. As long as IFC, however, retains the outstanding frat ernity award. it would be virtually impossible to give it honestly without first allowing open competition in every activity. Unless this award is abolished or modified, the change in Sing eligibility rules would only do harm. And .we seriously doubt if it would spur competition.

Told You So Romney Could Say DETROIT, Feb. 7 (IP) —lf George Romney wanted to, he justifiably could say "I told you so . . ." Ever since he became head of American Motors nearly four years ago he has been predicting a switch to smaller automobiles, or, as he describes them "the more compact cars." And, in an era of declining output and sales volume generally in the car industry Romney has just seen a grow ing demand for smaller cars pull his company out of the red. American. Motors reported net earnings of , nearly $5 mil lion for its October-December quarter. In the first six weeks of this year it has 'built 20,036 cars compared with 8367 in the like 1957 period. It is the only company to show an, upturn in car production and sales. Who is George Zomney? A vigorous, magnetic personality; stalwart and earnest, with eyes that look straight at. you when he-talks. He is a man of deep religious convictions, holding a position in the Church . of Jesus-Christ of Latt er-day : Sints -equivalenl in responsi bility to that of a bishop. Romney has been described, as a "compelling young man in a big job." Completely self possessed, - Romney - never has been at a loss for words. As a . representative of his church and •in other capacities he got a 'broad training. in -pub hc speaking in various.parts of the world. It has'been said that even in his earlier days tie never was over-awed by big brass. Yet Romney is not pompous.

"But I'll be a better man for you on tax matters in two months than any good stenographer waiting outside." • From the tax job RomricY went to the-,Aluminum Co. of America and the Aluminum Wares Assn. He entered the automotive industry in 1939 as managing director of-the Au tomobile Manufacturers Asso ciation.
