Officials of the Office of Ad-

“steady business” Monday as *OU
students began taking advantage
of the first day of the trial pre-
enrolment plan which is scheduled
to run through May 8.
The new plan makes it possible
for undergraduate students who
have earned 60 semester hours as
of June 1, 1964, law students and
graduate students to ease some
of the problems of regular enrol-
ment. Students not meeting the
60-day semester hour requirement
will not be eligible to pre-enrol.
Eligible students should remem-
ber that no class or section as-
signments for the fall semester
will be made until after May 8.
It should also be noted that pre-
emolling does not necessarily give
the pre-enrolee priority in getting
all of the classes he desires.
Officials reported that the de-
sires of the students for class times
and instructors will be met as
long as the size of the class does

Student opinion will be obtained
today and tomorrow on which
charities should be benefited from
next fall's annual Student Senate
Campus Chest drive.
The Campus Chest executive
committee, chaired by Marshall
Kramer, Ladue, Mo., senior, will
man an opinion box in the Union
immy fiuni e ».nr.-
days. Students are urged to stop
at the box for information and to
fill out the opinion slips for the
committee.
Each year charities are chosen
which wall benefit OU students.
There will be one international,
one national, one state and several
local charities chosen to receive
the donated funds collected in the
fall drive. This year’s campaign
will run from Sept. 30 to Oct. 5.
An example of local charities
is the Muscualr Dystrophy Foun-
dation, which is presently aiding
three OU students. Some $1,000
from last fall’s drive was also
contributed to the student infir-
mary for purchase of two micro-
scopes.
The executive committee has be-
gun work in selecting charities
and setting a goal.

Larry Blankenship, two-time former Student Senate
president, was elected Saturday at St. Louis as the first
president of the newly formed national collegiate group, the
Associated Student Governments of the United States.
His election came by acclamation from the more than
300 delegates at the pilot group’s organizational convention.
Some 62 colleges and universities from nearly even state
in the union sent delegates to the 2-day congress.
Blankenship himself wrote the in-
terim constitution which the con-
vention adopted after some revi-
sion. This constitution will be in
: effect until modified, replaced,,or
ratified at the national convention
to be held next fall.
Blankenship, in stressing that the
association is “strictly non-politi-
cal,” said that the purpose of the
organization “is to provide ma-
chinery for the exchange of ideas
and information on projects and
programs of student governments.”
Constitution Passed
The constitution which was ap-
proved 48-6 with 4 abstentions set
up the administrative committees
' and the organizational working
I committees which will handle the
work and projects of the new or-
ganization. Chairmen of the 4 ad-
ministrative committees and the 9
I working committees will be ap-
pointed by the executive council.
■6 The executive council is com-
posed of Blankenship; Ken Bowdin,
Southern Illinois University, vice
president in charge of programs;
Mike Carnahan, Purdue Universi-
ty, vice president in charge of com-
mittees; Larry Raithouse, Frank-
lin and Washington College record-
ing secretary, and Ron Hysom,
Kansas State University, treasurer.
The other officers were also elec-
ted Saturday.
Directors on Council
Also on the executive council
will be the regional directors of
six U. S. geographic regions.
Carolyn Farha, Oklahoma City
freshman, was elected chairman
of the fifth district which includes
Oklahoma, Missouri, Texas. Utah,
Arizona, New Mexico and Hawaii.
Her election established OU as be-
ing the only school having two vot-
ing members on the 12 member
executive council.
