leadership of president Shelley
Linderman and first and second
vice-presidents Ken Stokes and
Darlene Lorenz, met for the first
time last Thursday. Robert Ehr¬
lich, faculty adviser, was also
present.
The meeting consisted mainly
of a presentation of the Senate
plans for this semester. Five Sen¬
ate committees have been formed
to investigate campus needs and
to improve student facilities and
services.
The car pool committee will
promote the plan enacted by last
semester’s Senate. Students in¬
terested in participating are ask¬
ed to file “I want riders, “I want
a ride,” or “I want a car pool”
cards in the Senate office. These

John Goddard
Presents Film
of Latest Trip
John M. Goddard, acclaimed by
news critics as America’s number
one explorer and lecturer, will
appear at Thursday’s ASB assem¬
bly in Sexson Auditorium, pre¬
senting a filmed account of his
travels in the Philippines, Bor¬
neo, and Nepal.
Goddard, who has made over
a thousand lectures in 30 states,
made a 600 mile journey in Flori¬
da’s Okefenoke swamps when he
was only 15 years old.
In 1950, he navigated over 400
rapids on the Colorado River
from the Rockies to the Gulf of
Mexico. He was the first man to
complete a 2750 mile journey on
the Congo River. During the trip
a companion was drowned, and
Goddard hitchhiked 800 miles to
obtain enough film to complete
his records of the nine-month
trip. Goddard made another first
when he conquered the 4000-mile
Nile River in 10 months.
On a world journey with his
wife, Goddard scaled Africa’s Mt.
Kilimanjaro and has topped the
Matterhorn in Switzerland in 11
hours.
A graduate of Los Angeles High
School and USC, Goddard is a
member of the World Explorer’s
Club, is the only American mem¬
ber of the French Explorer’s So¬
ciety, and is on the roll of the
Savage Club of London.
in Senate meetings. Past Senate
President Rich Cacioppo has
praised Dr. Sarafian for the in¬
terest shown in similar meetings
last semester and for the prompt
actions taken on problems brought
up in those meetings.
Two committees will be work¬
ing on the problem of increased
student participation in the ASB
from two different angles.
Possible reductions in the price
of ASB cards could be made by
dropping the Pageant, the insur¬
ance policy, or both from the
package the ASB card buyer now
receives for $12.
Another committee will exam¬
ine services that could be added to
ASB privileges to induce more
students to join. One suggestion
now being looked into is the re¬
striction of the parking lots clos¬
est to the campus for ASB mem¬
bers.
MAKING sure senators know
about meetings will be the duty of
the publicity committee headed
by Linda Stigile.
Dr. Ralph Hallman, chairman
of the Social Science Department,
spoke before the Senate breakfast
this morning on “Creative Lead¬
ership.” The purpose of the tra¬
ditional breakfast is to install
new senators and provide a direc¬
tion for the rest of the semester.
“All interested students may at¬
tend Senate meetings and express
thir views,” said Linderman, “but
only senators may vote. When
senators vote, they vote according
to the views of the classes they
represent and disregard their own
personal opinion.”
The next Senate meeting will be
in 104D, March 8 at noon.
“After Civil Rights, What?” is
the topic Simeon Booker, noted
Washington newsman, will pre¬
sent at the Tuesday Evening For¬
um, March 8, in Sexson Audito¬
rium.
Booker will discuss the funda¬
mental meaning of the social rev¬
olution in America today and
prognosticate the society which
lies beyond the full attainment of
civil rights for all Americans.
As a White House reporter, he
has been a close observer of pres¬
idential attitudes towards integra¬
tion through three administra¬
tions — Eisenhower’s, Kennedy’s,
and now, Lyndon Johnson’s. He is
currently Washington Bureau
chief for several Negro maga¬
zines including Ebony and Negro
Digest.
Booker’s “Black Man’s Ameri¬
ca,” widely hailed as one of the

Opinions to Air
at Open House
“If you want a chance to meet
your ASB officers, examine the
ASB budget, and air your opin¬
ions on PCC government, the ASB
open house provides just such
an opportunity,” said ASB vice-
president Raymond Fors.
Based on the theme, “Take a
Step Into ASB,” the Open House
will be held in the Campus Cen¬
