Bowling Green
Revolt Fizzles;
Coeds Walk
Let's .take an old fashioned
walk.
This is still the mating call of
the men at Bowling Green Uni
versity at Bowling Green, Ohio.
Yep, convertibles are still out of
the question as far as bait for the
sweet young things, so it's a case
of strolling through the park or
taking a brisky buggy ride for the
evening's entertainment.
Rebellion Fails.
An attempted rebellion by the
Bowling Green students failed
Wednesday. The revolt came
about in an attempt to force the
university to revise rulings con
cerning student freedom.
Foremost on the list of age
old regulations and policies held
up to attack was the law for
bidding unmarried coeds from rid
ing in automobiles. As one spokes
man put it, the rule was set up
for "the very small minority who
have disregarded moral standards
in the past and will continue to do
so in the future.'
Attacked Other Policies.
The strikers gave up Wednes
day night after a day filled with
parades and demonstrations.
Other points under attack were:
1. Complete rreedom of expres
sion by the school's newspaper.
2. Non-administrative interfer
ence in the student senate pro
ceedings. 3. Relaxation of the campus po
lice powers. "Restricting their op
erations to enforcing law, not ex
ercising their powers in matters
which are innocent, natural and
trivial."
4. Backing by the university
administration of an organized ef
fort to have the 3.2 beer licensing
restrictions removed.
The' students say they will give
up on all counts except faculty in
tervention in the senate and on
the newspaper's operations.
