Approximately 50 students listened attentively to Smitherman's plea for student participation in the SGA, at the SGA campaign day speeches Thursday. The audience was estimated to the smallest for the annual assembly since 1962.

At the last meeting of this "board", board chairman, Dr. William J. Calvert, was queried by the Chanticleer on the possibilities of changes in policies affecting various campus publications. Dr. Calvert said the board as presently organized is , solely for the purpose of reviewing the "quality and con- tent" of campus publications*. Fifteen minutes prior to rendering this resumee of its duties, the board, composed of English instructors and political science profes- sors selected the business manager of next year's Mimosa. Although the board may be doing an adequate job of reviewing quality of campus publications, its scope should be expanded by adding persons experienced in business and journalism. The board should be composed of an equal number of students and administrative personnel. Authorities on all aspects of publishing are to be found on the JSU campus. They should collectively be the final authority on the organization and release of all campus publications. No one person - - regardless of who he may be or what his authority may be - -has the ability and knowledge to entirely control and publication let alone all the publications intended for student consumption. If one doubts that the present system is inadequate, look at the record compiled this year: --the Mimosa is more than $1,500 in debt. --the Phi Beta Lambda Student Directory is more than five months late and has yet to be published even though 700 students paid for the directories in advance last Septem- ber. --a "university" of 5,000 students receives an eight page tabloid newspaper semi - weekly rather than a yeekly Letters to the Editor 10 to 12 page paper which could be published at s u c h an institution.
