SGA Hears
Impeaching
Amendment
SGA. Assembly approved
Thursday night the first read
ing of a constitutional amend
ment concerning impeach
ment. The amendment stipu
lates that the rules on im
peachment which refer to
SGA officers would also refer
to SGA Assemblymen.
The SGA Constitution, aS it
stands.now, does not include any
procedures which could be fol
lowed to impeach Assemblymen.
However, it does have a special
section which discusses the im
peachment of officers. -
The section states that SGA of
ficers may be removed on the
grounds of embezzlement, mal
feasance in office or actions con
trary or in violation of the con
stitution.
Removal proceedings, the sec
tion states, may be instituted by
a majority vote of the Assem
bly upon a motion to this effect
by any Assemblyman.
In an impeachment trial, the
Assembly would sit as a tri
bunal with the SGA Supreme
Court Chairman presiding. Full
hearing would be given to the
accuser and the defendant with
the defendant having right to
counsel.
Actual removal of an officer
would be effected by a three
fourth .vote of the constitutional
membership of the Assembly.
The amendment to make the
above proceedings applicable to
Assemblymen as well as officers
was introduced by Duane Alex
ander, chairman of the Reorgan
ization and Evaluation Commit
tee.
The amendment, in order to be
officially added to the constitu
tion, must be read twice more
and at the final reading must be
approved by a two-thirds major
ity.

in nearby waters could open the
way for an attack on Cuba, "thus
shattering the peace of the
world."
Radio Moscow said the move
ment of U.S. warships into the
turbulent Caribbean is "fraught
with the danger of a military con
flict."
Premier Chou En-Lai of Red
China said the United States was
threatening Cuba "by force of
arms" and promised continued
support for Prime Minister Fidel
Castro's regime.
The clamor from Cuba and
the world's two largest Com
munist powers was brushed
aside by the United States. The
Navy in Washington reiterated
that the carrier Shangri La and
'four destroyers are in position
fo help repel any invasion of
the Iwo little Central American
nations.
The State Department in Wash
ington spiked a report published
in London that the warships
might halt suspected ships on the
high seas. Washington said ships
would be stopped only in the two
nations' territorial waters, and
then only on the request of Nica
ragua and Guatemala.
Presidential Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said in Au
gusta, Ga., the Moscow broad
sides were "Communist-type re
action" and added: "There's a
very similar reaction the
words are almost the same
from Cuba."
President Eisenhower ordered
the warships into the Caribbean
at the request of Guatemala and
Nicaragua after both nations
stamped out uprisings th e y
charged had support from Cas
tro's Cuba.
In Havana, the semiofficial
newspaper Revolucion called
the U.S. action "Yankee mili
tary occupation of Central
America," and asserted it was
designed to intimidate Cuba.
"Guantanamo or Guatemala,
the place for the self-provoked
aggression is immaterial," said
Revolucion.

them," he said.
Dunlop said that the band has
always met the team after away
games, led victory parades, and,
as after the Maryland game two
weeks ago, led the students on
impromptu victory marches.
The director said he cannot re
call anytime in the past three
years when the band played for
a pep rally because of class con
flict schedules.
He said members have ap:
peared in small groups as "pep"
bands.
"We never appear fore any
performance unless all 108 of
our members are present and
we can be billed as the 'Penn
State Blue Band'," he said, "just
