Our student government, in the past few years, has developed into a respons ible organiza· tion. Respons ible in that the fac· ulty and those dealing directly with ASCIT consider it an association capable of handling its own problems and operations in a mature manner.
This year is no exception. It is very impor ta nt tha t this same As 1n all melodramas, the per

me the opporlunity to prove it.
• • • Your ASCIT government is
not a s pecialized body. It deals with problems in every phase of student activity. For this reason, I believe that the most important qualification that a candl· date for pres ident can have is a wide knowledge of the many activities which go on on this campus.
During my three years here at Tech, I have participated in sports , forensics , publications. and musical activities, and at the same time have worked in both of our service organizations , the Y, and the Rally Com· mission.
In the past yea r, I have become familiar with the workings of the two most important bodies of which the president is a member, by being on Student· Faculty Relations Committee, and by attending Board of Directors ' meetings regularly.
If elected, I will combine this com plete knowledge of our campus act ivities with the drive and determination essential to get· ting those things done which the s tudents want. I know it's a big job, but just to say I'm willing to put in the necessary time and effort would be inaccura te. The fact is t hat I really want to do it.
Ulrich Merten,
• • • Vice-President
The faculty, in many cases, has outwardly criticized the Board of Control and the Honor System. My past year' s experience on the Board has show n me that in some cases this criticism is deserved. The new V.P, has a big job to change this atti· tude ·to one of admiration as well as to improve the Board and the Honor System to a de· gree above criticism,
To improve t he Board of Cont rol and to raise the Honor System in the eyes of the faculty I propose: to improve the legal procedure during t ria ls , to provide more defense for the accused, to establish a more efficient prosecuting system, to establis h a more extensive set of possible punis hments, to better

• • • As Vice·Presidern I will do
the following: 1. Give more publicity to the
Honor System- how it works a nd wha t a rea it covers-in the belief that a complete understanding of the system by all students would improve its ef· fecti veness.
II, Reduce the burden of work on the President by giving him every assista nce within my power.
II I. OpPose ex tens ion of the Honor Sys tem ·to studen t house ac tivities, in the belief that over· extension would weaken the entire system.
IC you agree. your su pport would be appreciated.
Dallas P eck.
• • • Undoubtedly the most Import·
ant responsibiltty delegated to the Vice-President is the chairmanship of the Board of Control, custodian of our Honor System. My current service on this Board has given me a valuable awareness of the potentialities a nd responsibil ities of the Honor System, and has, in addition, acquainted me with Board procedure and policy.
Because of my experience in ASCIT government and my contact with both house and off· campus men. I feel t.ha t 1 can ably represent the enti re s tu· dent body In executing the duo ties of the Vice-President. If elected, I promise :
a, Vigilant protection of your Honor System,
b. Sincere effort in represent· ing you on the Board of Directo rs, Board of Control, and Student·Facul ty Relations C.ommit· tee.
c. Clarification of the issue of traditions and an effort to r eo vive the Court of Traditions.
d . Hard work In the organiza· tion of the Combined Charities Drive.
• • Neal Pings.
• Secretary
believe that the ASCIT Sec· retary is in a position ·to build up and promote greater interest in student government. Through the use of his "Report. to the Student Body," by announcing ASCIT Board meeting agendas, and providing a means for student opinion polls in ,the California Tech, the Secretary could bring student government to every member of the student body.
Wtlh the experience I have gained serving you as Second Rep on the Board of Directors, Studen t·F aculty Rela tions Com· mittee, Honor Point C.ommittee, and through my activities in my ciass and deba t ing, I think I can do a worthy' job in the office of Secretary.
Stan Groner.
• • • An ASCIT Secre tary s hould,
of course, possess sufficient mastery of -those aptitudes required for the performance of his secretaria l chores. Moreover, as a member of the Board of Directors, he should have an interest in, and know ledge of, a variety of campus activities, if he is to serve in telligen tly on tha t pol· icy·forming organization.
I feei that my experience as

Thursday a fternoon a t Tourna. ment Pa rk, t he Cal tech windpus he rs met t he ir brothel' t rack me n from PCC and Muir in a p ract ice m eet. While the score was not k ept, rough calculation s hows that by getting a decis ive edge in the dashes, hurdles, a nd a ll fi eld events except the javelin, we m a naged ·to win t he mee t by a score of 891> to PCC's 25 and Muir's 171> .
Stal'S Outsta nding were Lewis with
a fi rs t in the discus and second in the s hot, a nd Tyson with exactly the reverse. Vuasolo, of Muir, took first in the ja veltn wi th a beautiful th row of 181 ' 3". John Nobles, how e ver, did himse lf proud with a good 167' 4" throw, his best of the season .
Shrocdcr Shines Dwight Shl'oecier a massed his
usua l as tounding 15 po ints with a 10.2 in the hundred, a 22.7 In the 220 and a 13.2 in the 120 yard low hurdles. Irwin took a go good firs t in the 70 ya rd highs a nd Win Soule accounted fOl' the rest of our firs t places. Howeve r , in the broad jump a nd pole vaul t , w e had no outs ide competition .
Continuing our review of track wit h the hurdles:
220 Yurd Low Hurdles-Here we ' re in our g lory. Dwight Schroeder holds the ealtech record of 24.0. Giving him a ba d time is Soph Biil Irwin. Finishing out a s trong las t are Hiroshi Kamei, Bob Ward, -and Bob Stanaway. Against us are Baudroud of Whittier, Strom and Dennis of Oxy, and possibly Welch of Pomona . Dwight figures to be able to handle any of them , however .
120 Yard HIgh HUl'dle!l-The sa m e m en w ill compe te in the highs as in the low s. Irwin is re la t ively s t ronger a g a in s t Schroede r , a nd will be a close contender. About the sa me compe tition will be found as In the lows. Ca Itech record Is now 14.8. with both Schroeder and Irwin doing 15.3 or 15.4 so far.
