Senate tackles fee system again; number of proposals increase Tuesday's Senate meeting was devoted to the consideration of two proposed revisions of the financial policy. The first proposal was sub. mitted by 'Charles Johnson, Presi-dent of the SGA, and other pro-posal was presented by Senators Erick Buskirk, Richard Neidig, Bruce Miller, and Bruce Smith. Johnson introduced a revision of his proposal of last week. Briefly, the provisions of his revised pro-posal inculded: 1) lowering the activity fee from $30 to $26. 2) 4 concerts, 16 jam sessions, and three big dances will be un-derwritten by the SGA; students will be charged $1.50 for concerts, $1.60 per couple for the February dance, and $1.00 per couple for ei-ther the May or Christmas dance. Homecoming will be free. 3) Money made from CUB con-certs will revert to the SGA social activity fund. Classes will keep all revenue from their dances. Addi-tional money for June Week would have to be passed by the Senate. 4) Yearbooks will cost $6.00 for students, $7.60 for others, and free for seniors. Bel Air hosts I S activities this weekend The plans for the Interrelations Seminar to be held October 17-19 at Bel Air Fresh Air Camp are in full swing. The Seminar intends to discourage student, faculty, and administrator role-playing and en-courage people to relate to one another as individuals. Long range goals include the creation of a more academic atmos-phere with a real dialogue in a learning situation. According to Louise Stagrner, Chairman of the (Please turn to page 4) 5) Organizational budgets (ex-cluding SGA, publications, SOC SUB, and the classes) will not ex-ceed 10% of the total SGA budget. After discussion of Johnsons pro-posal, Neidig presented the Sena-tors' proposal through amendment. Briefly, the proposal included: 1) The student will pay a Stu-dent General Fee of $20. 2) The SGA shall underwrite the following social events: Homecom-ing (Senior Class), 4 concerts (C UB), iSweethear Weekend (Junior Class), 15 jam sessions (CUB and 4 classes). 3) Any organization will charge a maximum of $1.60 for concerts and 50e for jam sessions. No charge for the above big dances. 4) 50% of the profits from these events will go to the sponsor of the event and 50% will go to the SGA social fund. 5) Seniors will receive the year-book free. All others pay $6.00. 6) All organizations shall be classified and budgeted according to Senate approved percentages. 7) Students shall have the free-dom of choice to purchase a Stu-dent Activity Validation for $10, which will entitle them to all func-tions sponsored by the SGA free of charge. Seniors shall be charged only $5.00 for this Validation. Neidig recommended the proposal because it gives all Towson stu-dents the freedom of choice whether they are active or nonactive. It was pointed out that there would be administrative difficulty in imple-menting either proposed plan. Johnson felt that the SGA could solve the administrative difficulties The Senate rejected Johnson's plan and decided to consider the Senators' proposal. The motion was tabled until next Tuesday in order that more Senators could be pres-ent to consider the proposal and vote. Photo by Thomas By LOU DALLENGER The Towson Tigers, winless until today, severely trounced the Frostburg State Bobcats by a score of 53-16 in hot Tiger Stadium Saturday afternoon. Frostburg, whose only victory this year was against Shepherd (15-14), had the record advantage, but the Tigers simply would not be denied again. This game was an im-portant one for the Tigers, who were beaten by the Bob-cats by a score of 38-7 last year. The first TD of the game came for Bobcat QB Jim Chaney on a 1-yard keeper, who also kicked the point after, putting Frostburg ahead 0-7. Then, after four first downs, Tiger QB Al Dodds pitched to HB Dennis Champney in the end-zone, bringing the score to 6-7. The next score came on a 35-yard field goal by Bobcat Norm Levesque making it 6-10. The Tigers then gained possession of the ball, but the half-time gun sounded before Towson could score. Tiger. take lead for good Early in the third quarter, after five first downs, Dodds completed another pass, but this time for a TD to Ron Ca-dorette, bringing the score to 12-10. Shortly after, the Bob-cats scored on a pass to HB Jim Evans, putting Frostburg ahead 12-16, but this was to be the last score of the game for the Bobcats. From this point on, Towson defense saw little action, as the Frostburg offense made sure that the Tiger offense had possession of the ball most of the rest of the game.

""Inconven-ient"" . . . ""punishing the dorm students.""�Such were a few of the comments concerning Student Government Association President Charles Johnson's proposal for fi-nancial revision. The reform plan itself called for a lowering of the student activities fee from $30 to $20. Coupled with this is a proposal to charge a small admittance fee for every so-cial event and set 11 maximum allocation sum for clubs and organizations. Johnson's rea-son for the re-vision was to aid those students Jac Patronik who rarely at-tend events, to tighten up club spending, and to establish self sustaining club events. Student opinions on the motion have been, for the most part, nega-tive. Commuters feel somewhat sympathetic to the proposal ; dor-mitory students are opposed. The day hops want to pay for all fees and activities in one lump sum. However, the majority of them agree with Johnson's point that they are not getting their money's worth and shouldn't be penalized for not coming to an activity. Many wish to pay the $10 dif-ference for convenience and the assurance of having admittance to all events without worrying about cost. One of the more favorable at-titudes towards the motion was voiced by Karen Feulner, a sopho-more commuter. ""Charlie John-son's plan i s very good. His idea for stu-dents paying as they go is fair-er and more just than the old plan, where everyone has to pay the same amount of ac- ThomasFord tivity fees even though they may not attend cer-thin functions. ""I don't thilik students would mind paying 50c or $1 to go to a jam session if they have paid $20 for an activity fee instead of $35 or $40."" Donna Emge ted that ""the Tom Ford, a freehman com-muter felt that it was ""a raw deal f o r the dorm students who would have to keep paying those small sums of money for activities."" However, he no-commuters would gain because they only attend a few events and would not be tak-ing as big of a loss."" At a Monday, October 13 Open Forum concerning the proposal, the students present gave a fav-orable reaction to at least part of the reform. One moderately opposing view was that of Jack Patronik, fresh-man dorm student who felt that ""the present system cuts out a lot of the confusion by getting it (activity fee) all paid at the be-ginning of school."" Many students expressed the same thoughts. According to sopho-mor! Donna Emge, ""the old (pres-ent) system is more acceptable because one can forget about all activity fees after the initial pay-ment."" Sandy Brown conjectured that ""the incentive will be lessened among the commuters to come and pay for events when in the past, admittance was already subsidized.""
