    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of "sectioning" the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

The Council also passed a motion accepting the recommendations of the Promotions Committee concern- ing the policy of CG toward NSA. The major recommendations were that State retain its membership for the next two years, ., but that only two delegates should be sent to the annual national congress.

I hope that they will forgive me if I do not mention them, one by one, but instead single out a few people whose contributions have been necessary and continuing. First, I want to acknowledge the authors of the een “In Retrospect” essays, all of them students during the Scales presidency. I hope that readers of this History will appreciate, as much as I do, their memories and observations as providing a perspective on campus life that I would not have been qualied to give. Members of the sta of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library have been unfailingly ready to assist me, but I must name, as having been particu- larly helpful, Julia Bradford from the University archives. I don’t know how many times she has opened the locked door of the sixth oor stacks so that I could explore papers and documents that I needed to consult.
