AS President for almost two quarters, senior Yuji Mitani strove actively to give student government at Cal Western Ha more powerful, meaningful position in University affairsf' His main philosophy was concern, both for students and the entire University community, and he attempted to achieve a ground of common communication be- tween the three bodies of the community -the students, faculty and administra- tion. He decided this was rather a futile task, since the administration was a bit reluct- ant to allow the students any more power than they already had. On janu- ary 18, Mitani resigned.

The AS Academic Board, under chair- man Mel Kadle, continued its three year tradition of hosting a speaker series for the university conununity. Two years ago there was the Gubernatorial Series. Last year saw the 6'Freedom in America, Politics '66-'67 program. Moving away from 'cnutsl' and into recognized leaders of protest segTnents of the society, the first Academic Board guest was Robert Scheer of Ramparts magazine. It was he more than anyone else who introduced the campus to the Peace and Freedom Party.

Responsibility Mitani was succeeded by AS Executive Vice President Jim Henry, a senior who ran on a platform of an all-University government. As Executive Vice President, Henry was chairman of all the executive boards. After gaining the Presidency, he lecl such student events as the controver- sial student convocation Feb. 2 and other student convocations throughout third quarter. Senior Van O'Steen proved to be an able leader of the AS Senate in the ca- pacity of Senate Vice President. He medi- ated in Senate discussions, which many times 'seemed to be two-sided, and con- tributed his three year's experience in student government to the Senate. Trying to develop the All University Judiciary into a more relevant group on campus was Chief Justice Al Molle. Aided by associate justices Anna Newton and Paul LaChance, and faculty justices Dr. Frederick Bunge and Dr. Mary Phil- lips, Molle attempted to rid AUJ of its ordinary disciplinary image and present it as a body of understanding of the stu- dentis relationship to his peers, the faculty and the administration. Senate Vice-Prefident Van O'- Steen ably cbaired AS Senate ieffianx in botb tbe Student Seruirex Building and Boney Hall. jim Henry took over wbere Mitani left of and tried to entour- age .rtudent body unity toward rbange in Uniuerfity Jtrur- ture.
