Frats For UCR In The Future The question is being asked about UCR's attitude toward national fra- temities and sororities. First of all, to be successful on any campus a fraternity system must be widely supported' by the student body. Only if a large enough number of students wish to join fratemities can they make a contribution to campus life. Tradition Needed The basis for the development of campus tradition and united student body effort is a strong student body organization. To build student govem- ment takes time and the concerted efforts of many people. When this is achieved and the UCR student body is large enough, the nucleus of a strong fraternity system may exist if enough students wish to support them. Since all other campuses of the University of California include na- tional fratemities among the groups recognized officially, it is clear that University policy is favorable toward the development of Greek letter or- ganizations. On two University camp- uses, University land has been set aside which can be leased on a long- term basis to national organizations for the construction of chapter houses. There is reason to believe this procedure could be followed on the UCB campus if student' interest is strong enough and fraternities are able to finance the building of houses. Study Made Dean Broadbent and Dean Davis have made an extensive study of fra- ternity development on other college campuses and have talked with many officers of national organizations, in- cluding National Panhellenic. The plan which has been found most suc- cessful on new campuses is for stu- dents first to organize local social groups. When there are a sufficient number of these groups to assure their accept- and unable to offer either to their members or to the University com- munity the services which are essen- tial to sound fraternity development.

Activities Fee Under Discussion The ASUCB must soon make a decision concerning a manda- tory student activity fee. This first semester the University authorities allotted us sums for student activities such as the newspaper, yearbook, dances and the like. However, it is doubtful that the University could or will grant us such moneys in the future. Then too, it must be remembered that we have had to budget rather carefully even this semester so that we would have suffi- cient funds for all activities. Consequently, the Student Activities Council has prepared a measure to be submitted to the student body as a whole that will establish a S10 per semester mandatory student activity fee. There has been some discussion heard both pro and con on this measure. As a result it was thought that certain aspects of the measure should be clarified. First. The plan of the Student Activities committee is tenta- tive and subject to the final approval of the entire student body in a secret ballot. Second. The proposal calls for a MANDATORY fee. With the exception of the Berkeley campus, the branches of the Univer- sity have made their student activity fee compulsory at registra- tion. UC, with its large enrollment finds it unnecessary to have a compulsory fee. Approximately 5071 of their entire student body buys student activity cards. This provides them with sufficient funds to carry on student activities. Third. The fees vary within the University. Davis and Berkeley charge 37.50 per semester, UCLA charges 88.00 per semester and Santa Barbara charges 810.00 per semester. The fee at Santa Barbara includes the full price of the student yearbook. The proposed 310.00 fee for UCR can be changed to one of the lower sums if the student body desires. However, it should be pointed out that anything less than 37.50 per semester would, of necessity, force us to curtail our activities and to budget them very closely. It is estimated that on the basis of an enrollment of 600 stu- dents the ASUCR would have an income of approximately 312,000 per year if a 810.00 activity fee were charged and 89,000 per year if the fee were 357.50 per semester. The student fee will finance such activities as sports, debate, drama, the Model U.N., the newspaper, dances, and many other activities. There is a need for a compulsory activities fee. The amount must, of course, be determined by the students involved. It should be pointed out that this matter must be decided before the end of this semester in order that we may have money for activities dur- ing the Fall term. The matter is one for serious thought and discussion by all students. If you have an opinion on the matter, either pro or con, the CUB would appreciate hearing from you. -Jim St. Clair Support The Yearbook UCB may or may not have a year book this semester. It de- pends on the students and how well they support the sale of year book subscriptions. If we have a yearbook it will include all the copies of our newspaper along with pictures of the activities during the semester. The school cannot afford to print such a book with- out a strong backing of the students, faculty, and other members of the staff of the University. The girls in the AWS will be in charge of selling the subscrip- tions for the yearbook. The book will cost 31.00. Those that want a book must order it when the AWS members are selling subscrip- tions. . The book will go on sale April 18 and sales will last until Ma 8. ylt will have a bound cover and will be a remembrance of the first semester of UCB's existence. I urge all of you to support the yearbook drive and to buy one from the AWS members selling them. -Bill Anderson ' 0 H406 , .

'NSY 4 ' rf . 'M 0 For the life of me I can't figure out why it is called 'Spring Vacation'. To call spending a week at a local beach where it costs you a fortune to even find a place to stay, where you live and eat and sleep in sand, where your subsistance usually consists of several cases and a pound of raw weinies, where you spend seven days buming Hand .peeling-buming -.and peelingjunless you're like me and get the hell burned out of you the first time you stick your nose into the sunl, and where your sleeping hours range from 3 a.m. to no sleep at all, a 'Vacation' is certainly a supreme stretch of the imagination. While if we were much closer to 'Spring', we would be celebrating the fourth of July. I think they ought to close this factory down for a month so we could really kill ourselves-then may- be Henri Bergson tHumanities 2BJ wouldn't look so bad. But this is supposed to be the Easter season. I'll bet more guys have been stoned and more guys have been thrown in the hoosegow for the 'one for the road' during the 'season' of the Prince of Peace, than at any other time. This includes both the Christmas and Easter vacation holi- days. I turned my radio on to what I was a disc jockey show last as I was driving back from thought Sunday a cold, miserable day at Laguna. It tumed out to be a sermon. Some woman the inside walls of P. S. 32 was tell- ing a bunch of chanting people all about Easter. She had a command of speech and an accent that made some of the characters in Caldwell's Tobacco Road sound like Doctor's of History at the University of Cali- fornia at Riverside. It sounded more like a tobacco auction than a sermon. I hope I hurt nobody's feelings. I realize that Freedom of 'Sermon' is written in the Constitution but if you look closely you'll also find Freedom to Criticize and Gripe writ- ten there too. I just think there is a proper way to 'sermon.' who had probably never seen If you look carefully, you'll se guy with red hair leading the par to Laguna.

Cost will be 81.00 per person and will include boating and swimming, the food expenses coming out of the student body fund. All UCB students are in- vited. The committee for the ar- rangements consists of Joe Pit- ruzzello, chairman, Loraine Eyer, food, and Tom Ryan, pub- licity. See one of the above about tickets. Tentative Plans Made For Inter- School Athletics Tentative plans for forthcoming athletic competitions are presently being formulated by the UCR coach- ing staff. Definite scheduling will depend upon enrollment next year and upon student interest and participation in inter-collegiate sports competition. Present plans call for UCB partici- pation in inter-collegiate basketball, tennis, golf, swimming, and cross- country. Whether UCR will actually be able to field teams in these sports is still undetermined. It is hoped that at least freshman teams in these activi- ties can engage in competition. If teams can be fielded they will be in the Southern California Inter- Collegiate Athletic Conference. This conference includes the University of Redlands, Whittier, Occidental, Po- mona and Cal-Tech. Dr. Hewitt is presently preparing a budget of next year's tentative ex- penditures. Much of the success of the present plans will depend upon funds allotted the Physical Educa- tion Department by the University and by the Student Body.
