In essence the pln is this: to rid our Univer

Student Council. It is the one thing that gives the
entire plan purpose and strength.
The last section of the letter says that the
proposal will go into effect Jan. 1, 1953. And
how might this sort of proposal be pat into
effect? It is stated that those organized houses
signing the letter shall not pot up candidates
after Jan. 1 for any title which is bestowed on
the basis of ticket-balloting.
The letter is being submitted to the Council
for approval. Regardless of the decision of the
Council, those organized houses that vote tonight
in favor of the proposal, shall, in a word, boycott
elections in the future where the amount of money
a certain house can scrape up determines the win
