houses and vice-versa, Hallgren
said, ,-AWS sets up the policy on
; these hours and we are willing to
i go along with any reasonable pro
! posal. This is a student organiza
i tion and if the students want to
' change the hours, they may do so
j within reason.-'
j "Students should have standards
; of their own. They should make
I use of their own convictions,"
i Hallgren stated.
: In answer to a question by
Moyer asking why the University
did not interfere with the pre
g ime function held two weeks ago
I at East Hills ballroom, Hallgren
i replied, "The function was a com
; niercial venture arranged by pri
i vate individuals. It has always
been our policy not to interfere
with commercial promotions spon
sored by individuals, in this case.
East Hills. We do expect students
attending such functions to ob
serve normal standards of courtesy
and property and the laws of the
state."
Discussing the supposed breach
between independent and Greek
organizations on campus Hallgren
said he did not know what the
. situation was but had seen "very
little" evidence of a breach.
