Committee member Jeff Apregan said the <
should be taken Into consideration.
"The community helps the school out with Job opportunities
and scholarships. How do we know people won't stop supporting the
school?* he asked.
Apregan was the only committee member to vote against the
showing of 'Fritz the Cat.*
The committee decided against setting policy for future X-rated
aims. Committee members felt each film should be dealt with individually when new film lists came up for approval.
The belief the CU Board would set a film policy prompted the
committee to vote to send a memo to the board requesting the parent
board not to establish a movie censorship policy. The board will
make Its decision next Monday at 3 p.m. ln the College Union,
room 308.
In other action, the committee voted to sponsor the National
Shakespeare Company for $1,200 on March 17. The company had
earlier offered to do a performance for $2,200, an offer that was
turned down by the board. An admission fee of $1 for students and
$3 for community residents will be charged.

The Student Court ruled yesterday that College

Hie    resignation   of  legislative   vice-president
..<! Gene Gibson was the basis for the legal probata of Good and Nlkssarlan.
\Uien  Gibson   resigned,  outgoing AS President
eve Moe named Good to £111 the vacant post. Moe
so appointed Nlkssarlan to be College Union Vlce-
esldeut,     the  post Good was elected to ln the
i ring.
Both were to be officers ln the new government
king effect July 1.  Their appointments were-ap-
oved by the new AS senate July 12.
Stein offered three major contentions ln his case
against Good and Nlkssarlan.  They were:
-The formal resignations of former Legislative
Vice-President Gene Gibson was not effective at the
time of Good's and Nlkssarlan's appointments.
-Good and. Nlkssarlan were not student senators
at the time of their appointments as required in tile
CSUF Association Constitution.
-Former ASB President Steve Moe had no power
to make these appointments since, accprdlng to the
Dee. 1, 1975 dictum of the court, his term of office
and all committees, appointments, etc. under lt expired at midnight June 30, 1975.
The defendants argued Gibson was removed from
office because he did not meet the 2.0 grade-point
average requirement for AS officers.
According to the defendants, the effective date of
Gibson's resignation was two weeks from the dates
grades for the spring semester are posted, or June
6, 1975. «,
Stein contended that since Gibson did not hand
tils formal resignation to the president until June

The Court rule Good Is legally ln oface because
the ofBce was hers to assume when Gibson resigned,
since she had been elected College Union Vice-
President ln the spring.
Good, however, currently holds the post of editor
of a student government newsletter that appears
regularly ln The Dally Collegian.
Because lt Is Illegal for an AS officer to hotel two
offices, the court ordered Good to relinquish one of
The majority opinion of the court was that 'although lt may be arguedthatnotmuchtime remains
ln Nlkssarlan's tertn, and that removing hlro from
office at this time may seem harsh, we feel this Is
of no consequence. We believe lt Is not too much
to ask of AS executive ofBcers to be familiar with
the Constitution and Bylaws; we can assume therefore, that this Illegality was known to him throughout his term of office.*
Associate Justice Ty Knotts; said in a dissenting opinion, "Nlkssarlan holds his oface Illegally
due to an unintentional oversight.*
The opinion also said that removing Nlkssarlan
would have no 'real, good or logical purpose. Nlkssarlan Is an Individual Innocently thrust Into a
controversy.*
Knotts, continued by saying he agrees with the
court that Nlkssarlan Is ln ofBce Illegally.

The dally Invasion of dogs ha;

The handbook outlaws dogs lr

dogs are allowed ln all buildings.
Students are part of the problem when they lie their dogs up
outside of the classrooms, Bambrldge said. He noted that some

don't even complain about dogs

To control these problems adequately, organization, money, and
equipment would be' necessary,
Bambrldge said.
•We would need an ordinance
for   everything,*   he  said. «To
dogs,  we  must  have
pens. I don't see any relief.*
Bambrldge said that the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is partly to blame.
"They (the SPCA) won't come
out and patrol the area,* he
noted. "They only come out when
the animal Is ln custody.*
Gib Rambo, executive director
of the Fresno County SPCA, said'
that his hands are tied.

merger to be studied

Managing Kditor
The first step may have been taken by the CSUF Media
Council to return The Dally Collegian to the Journalism Department arter nearly seven years of Independent publication.
The council recommended yesterday that members Richard
Lucas, faculty advisor for campus radio station KFSR, Dr.
James Flanery of the Journalism Department, and Associated.
Student Body President David Price discuss with the Journalism Department solutions to the short-term and long-term
problems of the Collegian.
One solution to the paper's long-term financial dilemma is
reincorporation Into the Journalism Department. **
According to Council Chairman Bob Long, reincorporation
Is 'pretty much the only option that's left, as f apr as keeping
something alive.*
Price said a proposal for a long-term solution to the paper's
problems would sweeten any request for $9,000 to solve the
•I think the senate would be hesitant, as ln the past, to
provide augmentation funds unless a long-term solution were
proposed,* said Price..

CSUF Accounting Officer Tom McGonaglll said at the Feb. 3
Media Council meeting The Dally Collegian could cease publication ln mld-Aprll unless the deficit were made up.
At yesterday's meeting, McGonaglll revised that date to
April 1.

Jump to about $11,000, thanks to a student enrollment of about
15,400 at CSUF this semester, said McGonaglll.
The Associated Student budget was based on a projected
enrollment of 15,000 In both fall and spring semesters.
Fall semester enrollment was 15,762, thus providing the AS
with $7,620 that had not been allocated to any budgeted area.
Preliminary enrollment figures for this semester would mean
an additional $4,000 would be added to the unallocated reserve
