Senate, . . er Inszgbt Into Governmenlj Marian, Rice representatives demonstrate natural skills in legislation Accepting the torch of leadership passed by na- tional and world politicians, Rice students partici- pated in the Model United Nations and Senate. The Marian U.N. hosted Rice delegates for two days of the Thanksgiving vacation. Delegates ably debated and voted on the problems of the U.N. Police Force, the Security Council and Yemen. The session ended with a speech by Mr. Malcolm Dooley, brother of the late Dr. Thomas Dooley. Making students aware of the activities of democracy was the ideal of the Brother Rice Model Senate. Vice-president Mike Gibson sought to make the two day Senate the most memorable event of the Easter vacation. Strong Democrats, led by Jim Rodary, failed to shake the stand of staunch Republicans, led by John lVlcAllister, on Medicare, Presidential Succession and Disanna- ment Treaty. The Model U.N.'s and Senate's decisions will have no effect on history, but its participants may go on to make history themselves.
