Government, 1975

For SCOAG R egistration

The largest number of delegates ever gathered on the JSU campus for the 10th annual Student Conference on American Government, Fpb. 21-23.

More than 225.high school delegates from Alabama and Georgia converged on the university campus to hear U. S. Senators John V. Tunney and John Tower and Speaker of the Alabama House of Representatives Joe Mc- Corquodale speak on topics surrounding this year's theme, "Youth's Role on the Eve of the Bicentennial."

"The conference was a great success due to the help of the more than 200 people on this campus. This year's c~nference had grgder pa r t i c ipa t i on , b e t t e r

speakers and much more intense interest than any of its predecessors," said Dean Buttram Jr., executive director of the conference.

"I think the conference had real meaning to the more than 225 high school delegates who attended. We broadened our appeal and it worked," he said.

Buttram said the con- ference broadened its appeal by gaining about 20 new high schools this year and by having Georgia students attend. Also this is the first year two U. S. Senators have been speaking at the same conference, both who were specialists in entirely dif- ferent areas of government.

"Everything worked smoothly," Buttram said.

"We're not looking for social workers," Program Coordinator Jerry Chandler said.

Potential Big Brothers should be at least 18 years old and should be willing to spend two to four hours per week with a boy between the ages of eight and 12. Psychology and special

Actually, the program is looking for men "who have an idea where they're going, " Chandler said.

This is a preventive program that won't produce immediate results. Boys involved in the program have never had male companionship. "They need to see the world through a responsible man's eyes," said Chandler.

CDB And W In Concert Jacksonville's first Sunday

night concert was a success. One of the largest crowds ever in Mathews Coliseum gathered to sing along, rock with and dance to the Charlie Daniels Band and Wet Willie.

Charlie Daniels opened. Opening acts usually have to

win their audiences, but not here. The crowd was waiting on them with enthusiasm that grew through their show. "Gaballo Diablo," "Love That Whiskey" and "The South's Gonna Do It Again" had the audience on their feet and clapping their

hands. A few with room were dancing.

Needless to say, the crowd was adamant when CDB left the stage. The calls for an encore were emphasized when the dim coliseum lit up with cigarette lighters and matches. And Charlie D. had

Tunney Assesses Dilemma Americans share a big

portion of what California Sen. John V. Tunney calls "the human dilemma."

Tuhey spoke to more than 400 high school and college delegates and members of the community gathered at J a c k s o n v i l l e S t a t e University for the 10th an- nual Student Conference on American Government (SCOAG) Friday night.

Tunney said part of the dilemma is "the incredible increase in world population. "

Experts have predicted

the world population will double in the next 35 years, according to Tunney. More than one billion world citizens suffer from malnutrition and "tens of millions" starve every year, he said.

The United States can increase its food production by 30 per cent, which would take care of the problem for "about three years," but "this country has no ability to feed the world, even with our advanced technology ," according to California Democrat. But Tunney

Opinion (Continued From Page 2)

added that America bears the responsibility to aid countries in learning better food production methods.

Another part of the human dilemma is the "increase in consumption of natural resources," Tunney said. He spoke not only of energy, but also food, water and minerals. "Many are ap- proaching their finite limits," he said. Tunney added that an increase in world pollution adds to the dilemma.

"Social costs are implicit to solve problems," Tunney said. "We may see a gap in technology resulting in a substantial loss in our standard of living." Tunney offered an example: Readily available energy sources

The professors are bought and sold like cattle and are no more than slaves in the amount of freedom they are allowed to exercise. Possibly the reason you may not have heard anything about this practice is that they are not allowed to talk about it.

A long intermission caused the crowds to get restless and a little bored. When someone tossed out a frisbee, attention centered on it. Cheers were raised when it

managed to sail onto the balcony bleachers.

However, that one little frisbee almost caused a riot. When the police confiscated it (ever been hit in the head by a sailing frisbee?) they were instantly very un- popular people. The crowd booed, hissed and groaned. Some brave soul tossed it

he said, "The Student Government should com- municate ideas and

problems to the Ad- ministration and act to in- form the students as to the ideas and problems faced by the Administration to bring about more understanding, thus helping JSU progress."

He said the SGA should "Act as a springboard to ideas presented by students and resolve problems which students are confronted by."

Patty Hobbs said, "For too many years the SGA has been a "rubber stamp" for a selected handful of so-called leaders "and wants the Senate to become a true check and balance on power."

She said she plays to "institute a 'Soundings Committee' " that would visit around campus every week "to hear student complaints and wishes." She said she wants "a two-way street of communication established immediately." A

SGA newsletter for "all interested students but especially for commuter students" should be initiated.

Mayor, the incumbent, said, "I believe the knowledge I have gained in this past year enables me to serve the students more effectively."

If reelected, Mayor said, "I plan to create a more open and active Student Govern- ment Association as far as student participation is

Four Vie For Office Of VP

The four candidates seeking the office of SGA vice president feel they can continue improving the university entertainment program.

R. D. Downing, Dennis Pantazis, Bob Waldrep and Ted Williams are m a w this possibly the most exciting race of the election.

Downing, a senior from Anniston majoring ,in political science and economics, is a member of the Entertainment and Lyceum Committees, a commuter senator and a member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity.

Downing said, "I feel that my best qualification is my work in this year's en- tertainment program. As confidential assistant to the vice president, I have gained insight into the mechanics of a successful en- t e r t a inment p rogram. . Having been a commuter senator, I am also familiar with the workings of the SGA."

"I think for a school this m a l l , the student body is far too divided. There exists within the students dif- ferences as to Greeks, in- dependents, dorm residents and those who live off

campus. I would hope to use the vice presidency to weaken these lines of distinction with a broad entertainment program which would involve a s many students a s possible, Downing said.

Pantazis, a junior from Birmingham majoring in Political Science, i s a commuter senator and hairman of the SGA Con- stitution and Intramural Committees. He is a member of Delta Chi fraternity.

Pantazis said, "My past experience in promoting successful and entertaining concerts over the last two years, plus my close worlung with the SGA this year as a senator and a committee chairman have given me tremendous insight and firsthand experience for the office of vice president."

The candidate said, "I feel that the students are the key, and the vice president should bring entertainment that will entertain all the students, not just the chosen few. 1 believe that I can work for the students as a whole."

Waldrep, a junior from Birmingham majoring in history, is SGA business manager and acting program director for the campus radio station.

"For the past three years a t JSU, I have actively participated in en- tertainment and helping the vice president. I feel I know and enjoy music and I enjoy working with and helping students," Waldrep said.

the VP's office. Yet I feel I will be there 'ta serve the students in any way that I feel I should, be it en- tertainment, helping wi tha problem, helping a t a pep rally .or whatever," the candidate said.

Williams, a sophomore from Auburn, majoring in political science, is a

member of Omega Psi Phi fraternity. He was selected as Best All-Around in high school.

"I want the voice of the Black student heard more here at JSU. I believe that if this is done now, a lot of problems can be avoided in the future," Williams said.

Candy Orr of Decatur and Sheila Turner of New Market are the two candidates for the office of Secretary of the S tudent Government Association.
