Student government is criticized
I followed with Interest this
summer the trials and tribulations of the Dally Collegian. I was
very happy when the news came
that the Collegian's funds had
been  approved   by   Dr.   Norman
made during Ihe controversy, the
most absurd was that of Student
Body President BUI Jones, when
he said the approval of your funds
demonstrated  that  student gov-

students had to stand by helplessly as the funds for their
paper were cut off and then ap-
"guidellnes." All the while, student government leaders had to
come begging with their hats ln
If the student government had
power. Uke Jones said It did.
then why didn't It simply override   Falk's veto of the paper's
It seems to me the only power
the students had was the power
of going to court to get an Injunction. In that respect. It was
a pity to see our elected student
body representatives on their
knees Instead of on the legal
barricades with the editor of the

With fear pounding t-s hisheart,
Frank dashed up to the check

cleared, there, alone ln the
middle of the floor lay Frank,
smiling but cold.
The coroner said It was murder
by the evil Fees; but we all
know deep ln our hearts, that
Frank died as we all would Uke,
