Legislature Decides
On Several Methods
To Improve Group
Representatives Suggest
Reportage of Meetings,
Hi-Monthly Gatherings
"How to Improve Legislature" was
the general theme of the Legislature
meeting Monday, February 19 at 5
p.m. in the basement of the Alumnae
House. Matters under discussion in-cluded
"Gripe Sessions," a required
course in parliamentary "procedure tor
SGA candidates, bi-monthly meetings
of Legislatuie, appointment of com-mittees,
and reportage of legislature
meetings.
The "Gripe Session," an idea re-ceived
from the student government
conference recently held at Duke Uni-versity,
is a meeting in which students
ask questions and air grievances. A
motion made by Marie Belk that a
committee be appointed to plan the
session for March was passed.
Another idea from the Duke confer-ence
provides that all SGA candidates
be required to attend a course in par-liamentary
procedure. Lib Hawley
asked, "Is it possible to have the of-ficers
elected this year take the
course?" Betsy Ivey suggested a short
course after elections. A motion made
by Evie Anderson that a course in par-liamentary
procedure be given this se-mester
for SGA officers was passed.
Lib Hawley suggested that an addi-tional
lecture on parliamentary pro-cedure
be given at pre-school confer-ence.
Sara Tillett made a motion that Leg-islature
meet twice a month, which
was unanimously passed. It was de-cided
that meetings will be held every
first and third Mondays.
It was suggested to Camilla Griffin,
chairman of Legislature, that as soon
as an issue comes up, she appoint a
committee to investigate campus feel-ing
and report to legislature.
In discussing reportage of Legisla-ture
meetings, Kitty Maxwell sug-gested,
"Let the students come to the
meetings if they want a verbatim re-port."
Jane Gardner added, "THE CARO-LINIAN
puts a report of Legislature on
the front page now." It was decided
that a report will be filed in addition
to the regular minutes.
An announcement was made that
anyone may present suggested changes
in rules to the rules committee. Mem-bers
of this committee are Marie Belk,
chairman, Jane Linville, and Hilman
Thomas.

Occupy Off-Stage Time of Dance Trio
"You really have to get a feel for
the dance!" said William Bales, mem-ber
of the modern dance trio, who per-formed
before the'Civic Music audience
in Aycock Auditorium Saturday night.
Enjoyed particularly were the dances
"Slow Goodby Blues" by Freida Flier
and "New World A-Comln'" by Jane
Dudley. Both were emotionalistic ex-pressions,
explained Miss Dudley, the
first of deep sorrow to a sweet, hot
blues number, the second, of joyous
anticipation to a harmonica breakdown.
Indifferently lighting a precious
Lucky, William Bales informed CABO-I.
IMAN reporters that he is now on va-cation.
"Yes," he smiled, "I dance dur-ing
the four-months winter vacation of
Bennington College where I teach mod-ern
dance." When asked about her
other activities, Miss Dudley said,
"Well, I also teach, not at Bennington,
however; and in addition, I have a
husband and home which occupy some
of my time." Miss Flier, it seems, has
a husband, home, and a job In moving
