that by keeping the temperature

buildings In Sacramento will use
four per cent less energy and
save about $13,000 annually.
"Before, many State buildings

said. "By shutting down buildings' lighting on weekends and
four hours each night we also
expect lo see a saving or about
16 per cent. We're going to try
It on a trial basis and we expect
to save about 131,000.*
Some sections of campus may
appear darker In the evening In
an effort to use less electricity,

The Student Senate yesterday
approved a Board of Publications
resolution asking CSUF President Norman Baxter to restore
$566 being withheld rrom the
Dally Collegian's 1973-74 budget.
The resolution said Baxter,
who has suggested making the
Collegian Independent or the university, withheld the funds "to
motivate a study of the Dally
Collegian's corporate structure
by the Board on Publications.*
The board has established an ad
hoc committee to evaluate Baxter's- proposals, and the committee Is scheduled to report

Senate proxy Royal Alvord
noted that Baxter had never specifically stated whether the funds
would be withheld until the committee reported Its findings, or
only until it was established.

Student senate reaction to a
proposal to create a new Associated Students organization varied this week from solid support
in suspicion that the restructures entatton In government.
The proposal would eliminate
ihe present senate altogether,
replacing It with twoI3-member
boards. One board — known as
the Directorate - would control
studeng body affairs, while Ihe
other board would handle College Union activities.
Each board would have nine
directors elected from the student body at large. The student
body president and vice president
would be members of both the
Directorate and the College
Union board, and each board
would Include a faculty member
and a representative of the university President.
