Page 12. THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Homecoming Edition, 1966 Senate Reconsiders Resolution On Reporting Art Series To Start Here Outcome Will Be Result Of Comittee Action In a meeting held on Monday, October 10, the Student Senate at Western Carolina heard arguments for and against there- peal of a section of a resolution concerning the reporting of Student Senate meeting which it had passed in its October 3 meeting. The resolution in question gave the WESTERN CAROLINIAN and the campus radio station, WWOO. the right to have reporters at the Senate meetings. The discussion arose over the stipulation that publications and broadcasts dealing with the Senate meetings be subject to the approval of the I student body President and Vice-President. Earl Hartman, news ed'torof the CAROLINIAN, spoke in behalf of the newspaper in asking that the stipulation be remu. od.. He asked the Senate to "repeal the stipulation as a vote of confidence in the paper, the radio station, and the Senate members.' Several Senators tnen presented their arguments. One Senator stated that "a lot was being made out of nothing" and added that he had "no objection to leaving it as it stands." Dewny Cockman, general manager of the radio station, made the point that this was the first year that the newspaper and radio station had been permitted to have reporters at the Senate meetings and that now was not necessarily the time to push for privileges. Alter hearing arguments both for and against the repeal of the stipulation, Barry Steagall, as President of the Senate, appointed a committee to meet with representatives of the paper in order to work out an agreement. The committee consists of Rick Goforth, Dean Hines, Thelbert Dowdy, Barry Steagall, and Bill Upchurch. In other business, Roger Eu- liss was elected President Pro- Tern of the Senate from a field of three candidates, The other nominees for the office were Rick Goforth and Dean Hines., The election was held oy secret ballot. It was decided at the meeting that all Homecoming displays must be down by 5:00p.m. Monday, October 17, and that the area around the display must be clean. Over 1500 Students Vote In Senate Race More than fifteen hundred students voted on Thursday, October 6, to fill thirteen vacant seats on the Student Senate. The students also approved a referendum for the remuneration of the Student Body President and Vice President.

Habitat 67—A City's Suburbia One of the most revolution; ada's International Exhibition permanent housing complex to real, after the fair's six-month run comes to an end. Designed by 28-year-old architect Moshe Safdie, "Habitat 67" appears to be a modern adaptation of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The apartments, ranging from one to four bedrooms, will be arranged in a "free floating" form, allowing each living unit complete separation from all others. The purpose of Habitat 67 is to solve the problem of over- urbanization and resulting lack of family identity. Every home | in the complex will have its own automatically watered and fertilized garden, formed by the I roof of the unit beneath. Units j will be connected by vertical roads and pedestrian walks. Ac- | tually, Habitat 67 will be a com- i iry results of Expo G7—Can- opening April 28th will be a remain in Harbor City, Mont- plex of individual houses joined into one structure suitable for a city. Construction of this dramatic new concept in building design is also revolutionary. All work is done on the ground -from the casting and curing of the basic concrete modular units to the finishing of kitchens, bathrooms, windows and electrical wiring. The completed unit is then lifted into position by crane. When the fair opens, a total of 158 homes will already be in place, 36 of them completely furnished and ready for visitors. Eventually, it is envisioned, there will be 900 living units in Habitat 67, available for Montreal residents. Pre-Homcoming Dance Features Ben E.

Two more may be added, says Mr. Al Sarvis who is handling arrangements for the shows. There will be five print showings and two local exhibitions. According to Mr. Sarvis, prints, as apposed to reproductions, are original signed pieces by an artist. Reproductions, however, are photographed copies of a work. The "de Cinque" Collection of Original Graphics will produce three. These showings are of religious works; Prints of the 19th Century; and Fantasia Dadas, and Surrealism pieces. A showing of contemporary European prints including some by Picasso is coming from the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh. The Virginia Myers Show, now at the the Asheville Museum, features this important American print- maker now on the University of Iowa faculty. To add variety, a Group Show of art work by the new faculty member of Western 's art department is also scheduled. These are Deanna Guffey Bland, Christel Tucholke, and James E. Smith. At the end of Spring quarter, the best work done by students of WCC will be shown at a student show. The College Center Board is alk "ting $500 for these Exhibitions. There will be no charge to the college for any of these shows except that of the "deCinque." This will enable Western to begin its own permanent collection of art work , claims Mr. Sarvis. The exhibition will be free to the public. Exhibition Dates November 21-Religious Prints Early December- Christmas, Contemporary Eugopeanprints.
