Dr. Sydney Chapman, advisory

Chapman is president of the
International Organizing Commis

from July 1, 1957, to Dec. 31, 1958.
This period which covers the ap
proach to the maximum of the
next sunspot cycle is so desig
ties are located in small towns,
the libraries must stay open be
cause students have no place else
to go to study or do research.
So the next question is what
is the need for a library on Sun
day? Frank Lundy, director of Uni
versity libraries, said he feels
there is a definite need for Sun
day use of the library. With the
addition of the new Quadrangle,
there has been heavier use of the
library in evenings than ever be
fore, he added. Too often Sunday
is the only free time students can
study yet reference work is im
possible without library facili
ties and a quiet place to concen
trate is often impossible to find.
Why, then doesn't the Univer
sity make its huge library avail
able for student use on Sunday? Ac
cording to Lundy, it is all a ques
tion of . money.

The subcommittee also recom
mended that the Student Council
investigate the Candidate Officers
Association to determine the exact
status of this organization. Lt. Col.
Donald J. Kievit, Army advisor to
the COA, stated in his testimony
that as the COA stood now, it was
a dead organization.
Three Examples Stated
The faculty committee reviewed
the meeting at which Nor
man Mann, president of the
COA, was called to explain negli
gence in following Student Coun
cil election rules at a meeting of
the Judiciary Committee. The vio
lated rules were: 1) notify the Stu
dent Council elections chairman
two weeks in advance of the date
on which the election is to be held
2) provide persons to operate the
polling place, including a faculty
member. 3) provide persons to
count the votes including a faculty
member.
During Tuesday's' meeting other
alleged irregularities were brought
up by the Council. Jack Rogers
president of the Student Council
in the absence of Art Raun, chair
man of the Judiciary Committee
reveiewed these points from a let
ter written by Dan Rasdal, Elec
tion Committee chairman.
Discrepancy of 80 Ballots
Rogers noted that a discrepancy
of 80 ballots was found after the
election, Nov. 11. He stated that
there were 1523 names in Coun'
cils' registration book, and 1603
ballots were found in the ballot
box. Rasdal also said that although
the COA . mentioned the date of
Nov. 11 in a letter telling them of
the first election; the Elections
committee never officially ap
proved the election.
Alter reviewing the case pre
sented to the subcommittee by the
committee, Miss Mary Mielenz,
chairman of the subcommittee and
advisor to the Council, asked Kie

possible to open on Sunday," he
