All the newly appointed editors, except Kathleen Lannon are junior English majors. Kathy is a member of the freshman class. Dianne and her co-editors were appointed by the 1965-66 editorial staff after they participated in a three m onth program whereby they acted as temporary editors under the guidance of the senior staff and the faculty moderator, , Dr. Frank E. Greene. The program afforded the girls the opportunity to become acquainted

with the various aspects of newsediting and the responsibilities of handling the newspaper as an effective organ of communication. In order to expand the role of the newspaper, the new editors plan to continue the student-fac~ ulty discussions of freedom which Ebb Tide initiated last November. Plans are in effect, too, to publish monthly editions of the newspaper with either four or six pages, depending on the crop of news stories and features available. Help Wanted The new editors wish to recruit to their staff as many students as possible. Sophomores are especially needed so that they might be trained during second semester to succeed Miss Fitch and her a ssi'stants.

LAFF Plans Program On De-cember 6, at 6:00 p.m.., the Lay Apostolate Finance Fund (LAFF) Staff will sponsor a spaghetti dinner in the Haven for the student body. The proceeds of this and all future functions will once again be used to assist Salve in apostolic work during the summer. Last year LAFF raised enough money to send three girls to deprived areas.

On November 12, 1966, Salve Regina students had the opportunity to participate in the second student council forum of the year. Karen McCarthy, president of student council, welcomed both the student body and the faculty and outlined briefly several topics of discussion. Students and faculty then divided themselves into small groups to discuss, define and develop the items mentioned. The plan for a coffee house on campus met with general student approval. Future discussio::I of the coffee house will be brought up at the next student council meetng. Lively Discussion The subject of campus police brought about lively discussion at the tables. All were in favor. It was agreed that Salve's campus is .g rowing and some form nf protection is needed. Sister Mary Emily also suggested that the poli<!e telephone number should -b e in a pr9minent place in the dorms so a student could readily call for assistance. Lethargy on campus found its way into the discussion at one table. It was mentioned that the student body has become more •a ctive and now the faculty should be further motivated. It was agreed that the student council is more active this year than it has been in the past. The student 'body seems to realize mor_e fully that the student council exists. CUrfews were discussed as always. Different curfews for
