for recognition.
Some time ago the faculty had indirectly turned down the group's
request for recognition by passing
a resolution saying no political group
would be recognized here.
Monday's action was only to approve the Democrat club and not to
give blanket recognition to all political clubs. A spokeman for the faculty
said each petition for recognition
.would be considered individually.
Campus Republican ieaaers have
sponsored a GOP club and spokesmen said steps soon would be taken
to make it legal on campus.
The Democratic Club is headed by
Thomas C. Carroll of the Law College.
He issued a statement saying:
"Students here are gratified at the
action of the faculty in recognizing
the organization of the club. It is
felt that such organizations will be
of real value to the University and
the state through the stimulation of
interest in practical political activities."
Carroll said the purpose of the
club will be to encourage registration
among the students for voting, to
encourage absentee voting and student discussions of political questions.
He emphasized
the club
would not in any of its activities
intentionally create an impression
that it represents the University
or that the University approves of
the club's views.
Other officers of the club include
Tom Underwood Jr., Jennings Kear-b- y,
Judy Keen Johnson and Elizabeth Bicknell, vice presidents,
Joyce Anne Harris, secretary, Robert Babbage, treasurer, and Professors Paul Oberst and Elvis J.
Stahr of the College of Law, faculty
advisors.

There must be some junior man
who could use a $200 scholarship.
The members of Lances, junior
men's leadership society, are beginning to think there isn't. Two weeks
ago they offered, through the Kernel, a $200 award to a worthy man
who would meet certain qualifications. No one applied.
The offer is still on, however, according to Roy Wallace, Lances
president.
Deadline for applying
has been extended to April 20.
