By Dennis Morglgno
Editor
President Nixon has again lashed out at the press, lambasting
them for what he calls 'hysterical reporting" of the activities of his
administration. ,
The President Is trying to convince the American people that he Is
staying 'cool* In these troubled times and Is not affected by the
blasts he has received In the press.
The fact of the matter Is Nixon Is blowing It. He Is the one whc
Is hysterical. He has become a paranoid child, trying to hide whai
corruption may strtl lie undetected in his disastrous administration.
Nixon realizes the press he has so long despised and criticised
openly has finally turned the tables on him, exposing the subversive
actions of his friends and
little   Florida  bank   deal   -   the ITT revelations) and sere
So, naturally, Nixon is furious   Ho Is getting caught In his a
to   make   the   American peoDle believe he Is innocent of m
We can  therefore expect Nixon to continue his harangue
the  press.   What   the press  must do Is ignore this moron';

The Board of Directors Monday approved the allocation of
$56,000 from the College Union
Reserve Fund for Improvements

dents,   but
Whitfield said construction would
probably not start for *at least
two or three months.*
•The preliminary drawings
have to be developed into working
drawings before we can get bid
specifications,' Whitfield said.
"We have to get approval of the
plans on campus, which will
probably be automatic, and then
the Chancellor's office.
•The whole procedure will
probably take at least two
months," Whitfield said.
Estimated costs for the plana
are $25,100 -for College Union
Improvements and $25,500 for
the bookstore Improvements, but
additional money was also allocated to allow for price Increases
which might occur.
The Improvements to the Col.
lege Union building were originally scheduled to be completed
before classes started this fall,
but the $16,600 previously budgeted by the board for construction proved to be Inadequate when
the first plans were revised.
