New elections 'unfeasible ' . The judic ial committee has recommended to the ASB Council that new elections for class officers not be held this semester. At a postponed meeting on Tuesday the Committee Chairman J im Strong reported that they had decided that the newly - elected frosh presi d e nt Brice Larsen and s ophomore president Charlotte Jacques shall remain in office. A controve rsy had arisen over the cons titutionality of Larsen's e lection by all members of the student body and whether Miss Jacques, an appointed vice-president, could legally assume the job of resigned President Sandy Eagleston. The Committee interpreted the two class cons titutions , which are almost identical, to say that voters need not be members of the particular class to vote for its officers. Article III of the Constitutions, clearly calling for four elected officers for the classes, is uncontested, but whether elections . should be held immediately is the question in point. Stro~g stated that an election at this
In the sophomore arena no one has stepped into the spotlight and new President Charlotte Jacques says she wants the ASB to decide what will happen. Miss Jacques thinks, howeve r, that the class constitutions should be changed so that the officers are appointed rather than elected because "they have to work closely with the president.''
time is ''highly unfeasible " and suggested that Jon Mitchell, ASB President, appoint people to fill the unelected positions by next Monday. A tentative election is scheduled for the fall-spring semester break. Frosh President Brice Larsen's vicepre sidential appointee , Phil Robinson. says he definitely will not run for the office if an election is held at this time. ''Everybody wonders why student apathy is at such a peak when things like this happen," comments Robinson on the recent constitution uproar. Upon hearing Robinson's decision not to run, Bill Wright announced he would throw his hat in the ring if an election is s lated, and Jerry Nicholas states he wants to b e elected freshman class vicepresident so he can ''bring the Pres ident and the other supposed school leaders down from their fantasy world to real life .'' Robinson, Wright, and Nicholas all agree that.freshmanclass officers should be electe d only by fre s hmen but the Judicial Committee has recommended that all students be able to vote for the offices. The same recommendation was made for sophomore class polling.
THE TELESCOPE is two days late this week due to a breakdown of our headline setting machine . Next week's issue , barringfurther emergency, will appear on Tuesday as usual.
Due to the present Santa Ana condition, the annual pre-homecoming game bonfire may not burn this year. Unless the present dry, windy weather c hanges the Pep Club will be unable to secure a fire permit for the Friday night festivities. A dance wi.ll be held from 8 to 12, however, even if the ce remonial burning is not.

Mrs. Rita White, art ins tructor, and Joe Stanford, vocal ins tructor, demons trated against the trash condition on campus Friday. Both instructors we re "registering disgust at the pig-sty campus," Stanford commented, "We wanted to let s tudents know we think it a pretty crumby way to let the campus be kept. It bugs me to walk to lunch ever y day on my way to the student union to see people living like heathens, " Stanford said. "Just because other campuses have this condition doesn't mean we must have it, too." injected Stanford. "The least we (PC students) can do is to aid the maintenance department: thereare ample tras h containers." St anford we nt on to say that the maintenance departme nt spe nds valuable hours cleaning up an unnecessary mess that the school must pay for in wages. "It is one of the s mall ways we could cut down."

Both commented on the students who seemingly ignore the mess around them. " I hate to think what the ir homes look like," and "I thought these we r e young adults, not children," excl aimed Mrs. White. Stanford thought, "Maybe they need s omeone to tell the m that the mess is unple asant." The instructors agreed that it was not a good image to r elay
to the public .. Stanford said disgustedly, "I would even hesitate to take a visiting frie nd for lunc h in the faculty lounge because of the trash problem." Mr s. White and Stanford arrived in the patio area carrying paper bags at ten to 12 on Friday. They brought several , " we thought we were going to have help." s he said. They tried to organi ze their fellow faculty me mber s into their demonstration against trash but were unsuccessful in gaining participants . ''We're disgus ted with our colleagues ," they s aid. Fellow members gave reasons of both a kidding and serious manner for non- participation such as, "It's not in our contract to pick up trash." Some believe that the answer is not to get out and pick up , they don't think the s tudents would respond to this method. One voiced the opinion, "It's not the right philosophy " This individual went on to explain that " the correct approach was to let it pile up until they can't see over it, then do something about it.'' Another stated pure monetary reasons, ''I'm not getting paid for it." One would watch but not participate. Some asked in amazement, "Are you really going to do that?' ' Mrs . White said to "Watch and s ee what happens next."
