and was considering a project
which they believed would bind the

details of the plan but hinted that
they would be forthcoming soon.

Jane Keefer, co-chairman of the
group, stated. "I feel that the idea
we are considering will unite the
class Into a working group and
although I can not reveal it, I feel
sure the student body will receive
it enthusiastically."

was selected from several ideas
submitted at the meeting ednes
day and was chosen because it con
