In other action, a resolution opposing the physical education Hon and graduation requirement was passed with no trouble at Wednesday's meeting. The request for funds to bring two Fresno mayoralty candi¬ dates, four city council aspirants and one major speaker on cam¬ pus was submitted by the Student Committee on Local Affairs. The major speaker was to be chosen from a list of six prom¬ inent personalities. The list in¬ cluded Governor Ronald Reagan, Mayor Joseph Alloto of San Fran¬ cisco, Mayor Samuel Yorty of Los Angeles andJesseUnruh,assem¬ bly minority leader. The SCLA proposal allocated $15 to each of the local candi¬ dates and $625 for the major speaker. The funds requested for local speakers provided for posters, publicity and refresh¬ ments.

After controversy developed over the original request for $715, two amendments were pro¬ posed and both failed to gain the One motion would hai 'amend¬ ed the allocations to $f J5 for the major speaker, while the other would have amended the request to the $00 sought for the local speakers. After the vote against the amendments to the original re¬ quest, Bruce Bronzan, student body president, spoke against the allocation of funds for speakers. •I am personally In favor of having all these people on cam¬ pus. I have some reservations on the proposal as It now stands. I am In complete agreement with the philosophy of getting political speakers who are running fpr of¬ fices, on campus so we can find out about them and question He said the Performing Arts Committee of the College Union should be the body to bring these speakers to the campus. In opposing the request, Bron¬ zan said, 'I personally feel It la a little naive to talk about paying these great men to come and talk.

The new re¬ quirements are a minimum of 32 units In four classifications and 8 units in electlves determined by the college.

He added, "Fres¬ no's West Side was an Ignored pocket of hand-me-downs.* To help overcome this, as a council¬ man Bell made a motion which was passed unanimously to form what is now the Fresno Human Relations Department. This department has been instrumental in helping many West Side residents find Jobs; In getting better lighting for West Side streets; and providing better educational facilities for children on the West Side. •Nothing has Irritated people In West Fresno more than being Ignored as a voting or support¬ ive factor In an election. I have 200 volunteers from tha West Side presently working on my cam¬ paign,* said Ball. He added that he was taking an Interest In West Fresno and It was taking an In¬ ters! In him and his campaign. Turning to other aspects of Im¬ proving Fresno, Bell said ha an¬ ticipated a shift In emphasis of locating Industry from outlying areas such as Mendota, Coalinga and Sanger to Fresno. In answering questions from the audience, Bell said ha U not In favor of partisan elections on tha local level because they do not encourage an open-minded enough evaluation of candidates.
