The matter was brought up at the last Council meeting and was postponed. It wiH be decided at the Council meeting Wednesday. Ag Exec Board constitution. Article I, section 2: (purpose) "It is the purpose of tbe Ag Exec Board to support and advance the in terests of the Agricultural College and to coordinate the activities of the various student organizations in the Ag College." Ag Exec Board does, however, perform come activities itself for which there are no organizations to so perform: Barbecue, Farmer's Formal and Ag Christmas Party. Farmers Fair Board does perform an activity and seeks to con tinue this activity. Therefore, Ag Exec Board has the authority to coordinate tbe activity of Farmers Fair Board, but not to engage in performing tbe activities for which the Farmers' Fair Board has been organized to perform. j The judiciary committee feels that an official University organiza tion has the right to self-determination: that is, it may, of its own volition, decide to disband or to merge with another organization. To otherwise not exist as an organisation it must be shown that this organization is financially unable to perform its functions or that it has membership Dot intent on performing its functions. The judiciary con.mittee feels that: 1. Farmers' Fair Board has been judicially fulfilling its functions. 2. Its present membership desires to continue putting on the Farmers" Fair. 1. Farmers' Fair Board's financial status is satisfactory. 4. Ag Exec Board does not have the authority to assume the re sponsibilities of Farmers Fair Board. This conclusion is based on the stated purpose of Ag Exec Board in its constitution. Therefore, Farmers' Fair Board is intact and will continue to operate as in past years. A general election and assumption of Farm ers Fair Board's responsibilities by Ag Exec Board is out of order. Problems as to the Ag Exec Board membership are pending fur ther investigation. Tbe judiciary committee disapproves the amendments: 1 Adding four junior members to be elected, from tbe Ag student body. 2. Adding one bold-over member. 3. Assuming the responsibility and functions of tbe Fanners Fair Board. The Ju&kia.;; committee appr oves the constitutional amendments: 1. The president and vice-president shall be elected on the second Wednesday in May. 2. Tbe secretary and treasurer shall be elected at the last regular meeting an the spring. 3. The faculty advisors, at least one man and one woman, to serve without vote and to be approved by tbe Dean of the College of Agri culture. See Jeai eoUeriaL. page 1.
