New ASB Constitution Proposed by ICC 1
Revisions of the Associated Stud~nt Body.constitution, which would establish a stud·e nt senate and eliminate the need of an advisor, were presented to the administrative council and Inter Club council (ICC ), Jan. 4. presented in the form of a new constitution rather than through amendments, the proposed document faces council and ICC approval before the general student body decides to accept or reject the proposal in a special election . Final approval must be received from the Board of Trustees. The document is not expected to be ready for student voting until next semester, according to informed sources in the student union. An ICC sub-committee, composed of primarily four club representa~ives with occasional help from other mterested students, was charged with the project at the Dec. 16 meeting of ICC. The project was approved by ICC after Beta Phi Gamma representative Pete· Moylan suggested that ICC be elevated to an equal power organization with the administrative council. REPRESENTATION "There was a great lack of student representation in the present government format," explained Moylan. "You had a situation of seven voting members on the administrative council and only three of those selected by the students." Moylan said that students vote for president, vice president, administrative
assistant and a faculty member. A second fa culty member is appointed by the faculty senate and those five members chose the director of activities, director of acade mic affairs and director of finances, all of whom have voting rights on the administrative council. " I believe it is grossly unfair that five people, two of whom are faculty, have so much say in the running of student government, particularly its funds," Moylan reacted, adding that the one of elected officers, the president, votes only in case of a tie. Moylan said that a senate, comprised of the active clubs on campus, would be more r epresentative of the student~ and would best be able to administer the student body funds. " I would hope that students, seeing that a club has actual student government power, would be more interested in both government and his organization. "Perhaps the present administrative council is too far removed for students," he added . SENATE Powers of the Senate were based much on the Senate and House of Representatives in the United States government. The senate would have the power to approve administrative council ap· pointments and to removals from the cabinet, committees and judiciary. Three members of· the senate would join three members of the administrative council and a director of finance on a
financial committee to administer student body funds . However, according to the proposal, only the Senate would be able to initiate financial legislation (by laws ) with the approval of the administrative council. The Senate would tlave veto power by two-thirds vote of its body over the administrative council. The president of the Senate, chosen by the Senate, would represent the students on the faculty senate. "We believe that the only reaf powers student governm ent has is in its expenditures of its own money," stated the journalism fraternity's vice president. "Even the board has final say in that, but we felt the decision of how to spend that money should be left up to the more representative group, which would be the Senate." With the exception of the power to legislate financial bills , the power of the administrative council remains essentially the same, according to Moylan. COUNCIL Proposed changes in that body included dropping the three directorships from voting power on the administrative council to cabinet positions, which could be filled if desired by the president. The two faculty representatives would be shifted to the Senate with the same voting power they had on the council. "This would provide the faculty with the same number of votes, but less total power in th e student government
position," Moylan commented, adding that "we would hope the faculty senate sees fit to give voting rights to the two student representatives, one fr<11n the senate and one from the administrative council , in return for their privilege to vote in our legislature." He added that he would like to see the facully and students retain a strong friendship to bring about commonly sought after goals, such as removal of the parking fee. ADVISOR Another major revision in the proposed constitution was the elimination of the role of advisor to student government and clubs. However, this revision will probably not be approved by the board of trustees even if it is approved by the 'students, according to informed sources. " We still have to try it," Ralph Blom , ASB vice president, told ICC represen· tatives. " Nothing is ever accomplished if it isn't tried." One ICC member pointed out that the advisor role , now held by T. J. Owens, assisted dean of student activities, is part of the education code. The education code is state law. "One way to change the law is to try something new. If it is refused you can take it to court," responded BJorn, one of the four sub-committee members along with Moylan, P eter Stensrud of Radical Action Movement CRAM), and Arthur Elmore of Black Students Union CBSU). Blom pointed out that the proposed
pn~amble
to the constitution states that the students seek self-determination and should be willing to fight in court to get it. INSULTING Moylan added that the sub-committee also proposed changes in existing board of trustees administrative policy. "We consider some of the policies in here insulting to everyone concerned, .. said Moylan . •·If you read the handbook <Student Activity Handbook, 1971 - 1972 ) from page one to page 21 you find policies concerning students which are insulting. I feel I'm old enough to take care of myself without having to be chaperoned when I'm away from school," Moylan stated. ·
He believed that those changes would never be approved by the board, but felt that the board would have to refuse the proposals publicly. The sub-committee also proposed that the constitution be printed in a separate handbook from the administrative policies, so that it would be clear that students did not support the board's policies. APPROVAL The constitutional proposals met only minor resistance in the administrative council meeting. Council m embers proposed minor changes to some of the proposals, sich as having five council members instead of three to provide more balance between
the bodies. H~wever. most members exp1·essed agreement with the concept of the changes. "I wholeheartedly approve of the concept,·· reacted P aul Sepulveda, ASB president. " It 's a whole lot better system. It will represent students much more than the present system. " If you consider that each club may have 20 members and there are 20 clubs, that's over 400 students right there," Sepulveda pointed out. Reacting to the fact that the proposed constitution would not include an ad· ministrator as a n advisor, the president felt that administration should not have the final say in student government. "Students are old enough to run their own student government," Sepulveda commented. "It's been a long time coming," Sepulveda added, referring to student government reform. Other changes in ihe proposed constitution involve minor changes in election procedures, amendments , referendums , and rec alls , judicial council and requirements for elected and appointed officers of student government. The adminis trative council is expected to make some amendments to the ICC proposal. However, the final revised constitution is not expeeted to come up for a vote in either body for about two weeks, according to informed sources.

The greatest problem faced by the community is "a lack of solida rity -- just getting people to call San J ose 'home,' Mayor Norman Mineta told "Meet the Student Press" panalists Decem ber 16. Attitudes must be overcome, the Mayor stated, before the city can effect ively face what he calls "a laundry list of problems,'' includi ng housing, tra nsportation, environmental protection, equality and racia l conflicts.
" F AIR TRIAL" FACTIONS Commenting on the Angela Davis trial, to convene in San J ose J a nu ary 31, the mayor adm itted it "will tend to more polarize the commun ity, rather than bring about sense of maturity." "We will be doing everything possible to insure that a fair trial exists," stated Mineta fir m ly, "through d iffere nt people's ideas vary on what a 'fair trial' is. "
Six State Field Trip Can Net Six Credi ts San Jose City College's Mexican· American Depa rtment is seeking funds for a six week trip that will cover s ix states a nd give students a chance to see first ha nd the effects Mexican-American culture in areas traveled. David Gut ierrez, one of the MexicanAmerican instructors, said that it is estimated it will cost $200 per s tudent, "But we are asking for $600." This he added would allow one instructor a nd two students to make the trip. The trek which is open to all students who can come up wi th $200 for the s ix weeks is worth six credits. Gutierrez remar'ked that for the student it would mean he or she would be comi ng to grip with reality after studying about the Mexican -American culture in these
areas in the classroom. The key to the whole concept of the instudent be wou ld ja unt volvement . . . they would m eet, talk with a nd eat with the MexicanAmericans th ey come contact with on the trip. Sleeping ar rangements would be in public buildings in the various hamlets cities .a nd towns visited by t he group. ' If 40 students were to sign up for the six week non-classroom course Gutierrez commented, " we would charter a bus to visit Southern California , Texas, ew Mexico, Ari zona , Nevada and Colorado. " Gutierrez pointed out that the trip would be open to all students of San J ose City College, who want to broaden their concept of th e Me xican-Ameri can cul ture in the Southwest.
Since the trial is basically under county juris!iiction, San J ose's limited role will actually be to insure security -· for court officials, spectators, and the 250 plus media representatives Mineta expects to be coveri ng the trial. Currently city and county officials are m eeting to determine ways of s moothly channeling resources to "prevent this trial from developing a circus atmosphere," the Mayor said. STU DENT FACTIONS APPEASED In answer to a question concerning city government responsiveness to student •· gripes," an energetic Mineta told student repor ters tha t the 18-year-old vote a nd the trend toward more public involvement will have to be reflected by politicians. His own plans for increasing communic a tion be t ween gover nment a nd voters includes,. '·vitalizing " New E ngland type" town meetings, two of which have already been held and were, in his estimation, successful. City of· ficials must reflect the young peoples attitudes, he s tated, "not just because they 're voting now , but just because they are there -- their needs are there." I COM E STRATIF IES RESIDE!';TS Seeing no way a round the stratifying issue of bussing, Mineta regards it as onl y a sympton of a larger problem, housi ng pa tterns. To treat the root of the problem, he poin ts to a newly adopted plan which will insure the housing mix of 14 now econom ically separated housing sectors to be designated as "planning areas.'' This he considers the first step towards reducing the unreasoned fear - encountered between different economic groups in the community. (Continued on page 4)
Student Council was unable to take action last week on the revised cons titu tion whic h had b een proposed by the Inter-Club Council, due to their failure to achieve a quorum. The proposed Associated Student Body Const itut ion had been presented to council ea rlier in the week by Ralph Blom, ASB vice president. Council formed a committee of 5 to inqui re into the ASB Installation Dinner. Those appointed to the committee were, Virginia Sandoval, administra tive a ss istan t; Albert Trum bo, director of finance ; Ralph BJorn , vice· . pr e sident; Diane McAfee, fac ulty representative and Dorothy Shoudy, secretary. It was brought to council's at-' tent! on by Trumbo, that Irwin Maloff's job as a member of the student supreme court would be vaca nt next se mester. Tuesda y, Dec . 14th, 1971 the student administrative council faced a long list of financial proposals. SHARE was gra nted $125 for or their Christmas P arty. $60 had been transferred from the emergency fund to the com-
petition and achievement awards. Papers prepared for signature were presented to council. Papers were a lso presented for councils signature fo r $40 to cover mailing and stationary cost for the International Club. Albert Trum bo , d irector of finance, moved to approve a transfer in the sum of $171 from Co-Ree to Woman's Basketball Team. This item was seconded a nd passed unanimously. During Dec. 16 meeting council a pproved the constitutions of SDS, SMC VRA Child Care Club, and the Inte;natio~al Club as submitted, unanimously. In othe r a ffirmative ac tion, council approved a 'Policy Determining Committee' to work with the bookstore, after defeating a concept of a 'Recommending Committee' for the bookstore. Both proposals were made by Diane McAfee, faculty representative. Also broug ht before council, were the pla ns of the Student Mobilization 5-pa rt committee to sponsor a seminar directed at educating City College students about the different aspects of the South East Asia war.
RAM Orga nizing Prison er Comm ittee Radical Action Movement CRAM) is presently orgam zm g a Poli tical Prisoners Committee on campus with Angela Davis a s the focal point. This is not a defense committee but what it said, a P olitical Prisoners Committee, comm ented P ete Stensrud, RAM spokesman. Since most of the people in prisons today a re political prisoners, Stensrud said, our immediate project is to find out what consti tutes prisoners in America. " Most people we feel a re in prison because of the Socio--economic condition in this country . They are resorting to crime because of poor housing , lack of medical faci lities or other unmet needs," he said. Contrary to American belief any faculty member or student can be thrown in jail for verbally expressing his beliefs upsetting to the esta blishmen t, added Stensrud. He further stated that he wanted to impress on faculty members that Angela Davis was a faculty member and n ot a student. The reason she's in jail is because of the ideals and beliefs she expresses.

Lose Only Once Times, Wednesday, J anuar y 12, 1972-3
Gals End Season
On Winning Note
{lie TimeJ? SporlJ?
How many of you out there know that City College has a women's basketball team ? Not many, right? Well, a lthough they' ve . been out of the spotlight over here, they've been shinin' like pros everywhere else. During this past basketball· sea son they have had a fa ntastic record of elevei1 wins and only one loss. The loss came at the hands of D~ablo Valley College when D1ablo grabbed the winning point in the last 20 seconds of the game. The women Jags however are not worried over the loss. None of their rival teams ' can claim their record. Up until last year, women's basketball has been on an informal basis for both students and teachers. This year however, they' ve added uniforms and what was once informal, is now a 'class meeting two days a week with one unit of credit. A necessary require ment for the class is skill. A glance at their season record proves that that's one thing they have a lot of. The grls also sacrifice more of their own personal' time in extra practice, which may be one of the reasons for their success. The other reasons are the
· Jag Cagers Rip; Bulldogs Fall 74-50 College City The basketball team opened it's 1972 conference schedule with an easy 74 - 50 shelling of hapless College of San Mateo, running the Bulldog's losing streak to 31 straight games. The victory was followed by a Golden Gate Conference loss to powerful Merritt College, 89 - 70, last Friday night in Oakland. The J aguars coasted to the victory over San Mateo last week in an almost effortless manner, as they hit a n excellent 50% of their field goal attempts. Despite ext ensive . substitution by coach, Pat Dougherty, reg ulars Jim Owen and Chris Moulton were still able to garner double figures. Moulton hit on an a mazing 64% of his shots from the field, for 16 points, while Owen fired at a 50% clip for a game - high total of 22. A newly - found scoring and rebounding star for the J aguars has been Fred Trujillo. In the game against San Mateo, the 6'1" forward hit 14 points and grabbed a team - high 14 rebounds. Coupled with the shooting consistency from the floor City also shot 71% from the free - throw line, and comple ted the all - around performance by out - rebounding the Bulldogs, 33 - 16. The only thing that kept the game from becoming ridiculous was the presence of San Mateo's 6'0" guard, Ducky Henreid . Henreid, who finished second in the Central Coast in scoring last year as a high school senior at Oak Grove, recorded 21 markers for the Bulldogs, despite being benched for the opening 13 minutes of play. The J aguars' position on top of the league was short-
lived, however, as the next encountered one of · th e GGC's toughest squads in Merritt College. The result was a 89 - 70 drubbing, in which the Jaguars were outshot 52% to 37%. Jim Owen again led the squad · in the scorin g columns, turning in a 17 point performance. He also shared 11 rebounds, Chris Moulton added 11 points, and Cornell Burris hit on 8. San Jose had a definite advantage in the personal foul category , with Merritt being whistled for 27 and City for only 8. But Merritt ·more than made up for his large margin by firing 85% from the charity line. According to Dougherty, Merritt will prove to be one of the toughest teams the Jags ·will encounter all season. But he added, Laney, Chabot, and CCSF to the list of possible contenders for the GGC crown. Last week's games came on the heels of a disap-
pointing holiday schedule, in which City was able to muster only two victories in six outings. After a nonleague win over the Hayward State Frosh, the dr opped con-. _J aguar s secutive decisions to Canada and Ohlone Colleges. Next on the slate was the Hancock Tournament, and the Jags started on tne wrong foot with a loss to Ventura, 93 - 74. City finished with a strong second half performance in that game, but it wasn' t enough to overcome a 24 - point halftime deficit. In the next game of that tourney, the Jags stopped Monterey for the second time this season by a 67 - 51 margin . Four Jaguars finished with double figures in that contest, with Dick Alesch leading the way with 13 points.

The Jaguars bowed out of the tournament on a sour note, falling before Hancock.
Behind every successful basketball team there is that person that makes the team what it is. She is not often in the limelight, but she is the actual backbone of the team. The person in this case is coach Evonne Davenport. Miss Davenport has been womens ' coaching basketball for 6 years but "this year's team" , she says "has the best potential of anyteam that I've ever coached here at City." Right now, she is proud of her girls, and with good reason.
Athletes Honored At Award Banquet
Grapplers fourth At Cal-Poly Tourney City College Wrestlers have reason to be proud today as they placed fourth in Uie Cal - Poly Wrestling Tournament, Saturday. The tournament includes 38 schools from all over California. The Jaguars were paced by Richard Guynes (118 . lbs.), Bill Kistner (167 lbs.) a nd Mall Alexnder (190 lbs.) . Guynes was the only J aguar to reach the finals. In his first finals match he pinned his opponent from Los Angeles Trade Tech in 36 seconds. Later he took a 16- 3 decision from Fullerton. In his final match he lost a close

girls themselves. Mixing last years' returning veterans with this years' shooting ability has produced a winning combination . Their strongest points have been their defensive rebounding and maintaining drive scoring their throughout the entire games. High scorer all season has been Sue Lindh with 182 points out of 12 games which, is an impressive record. Yvonne Bolinger came up second with 58 points. Sue Lindh comes up again as highest rebounder with 102 followed by Sue Moreno with 56 rebounds. As a team, 40% of their free throws were good.

Six-Week Deadline
Class Withdrawal Policy Tightened Beginning next semester City College will have a lighter class withdrawal grading policy than in the past. The old policy, stating that a student may withdraw from a class anytime up to the final examination without penalty, was considered too lax for the increasing number of students at tending classes, according to the administration. Revisions in the policy are stted as follows : •
Any student may withdraw from a class anytime up to the sixth week of class without penalty. • Any student who withdraws after the sixth week will receive a WI N as a final grade. • If the student feels that he has a legitimate reason for dr opping the class after the sixth week, he may appeal to the instructor on a form provided by the college. If accepted by the instructor, the students grade will be changed from WI N to a W. However, if the instructor turns down the s tudents appeal , the
students can make one final appeal to the dean. Dr. Otto Roemmich, college president, feels that the new policy is better beca use it will discourage tha t student who r eally aren't sure they want a class from taking it, lea ving a vacant seat for that student who really wants the class. He stated, at the specia l faculty meeting Thursday explaining the new policy, that its " a good thing." Dr . Gordon Peterson , dean of students, stated at the meeting tha t the college was striving for consistency within the grading policy. . He explained that the totality of the studen ts performa nce in cla ss, and the legitimacy of his reasons for dropping after the sixth week should be considered before the grade change is or is not authorized. P eterson also stated that he felt the only legitimate reason for a uthorizing a grade change were those r easons beyond the control of the student. But, Peterson stated, the fir st choice is left to the discretion of the instructor .

Virginia Woolfe
Have A Can o~ Spinach by Jim Mather All of us have a limit to which we will allow ourselves to be pushed ; but I wonder how many of us know just how far that is. What will we do to keep a r elationship a live and what will we endure for the sake of finding some meaning in this life. At what point do we say, as Popeye said on many occasions, " that's a ll I caD" stan'st, I can' t stan'st no more?" Edward Albee, who gave us "Zoo Story" and a guy na med J erry, a guy who screamed out for someone to car e about him, even if only to hate him, and a dog who did just that, delt with these questions. He a ttempted to answer them in a play he called " Who ' s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? " I r ealize that m ost of you
thought, when the film ca me out, that the story should have been titled " Ma and Pa Burton at Home; " and I agree with yo u, but there's more to the stor y than was shown or brought out on the screen. On the surface you see George and Mar tha at each other's throats but what's happening under that surface? How do they really feel? What are they really after? Why don 't they jus t split up? Why don't you? Why don 't I ? Why do we stay when it would sometimes seem easier to leave? Why did their child die? Did he really exist ? Why did George ask himself, when he heard that a young couple were coming for dinner, if this could be the day? The day for what? Stuart Bennett chose the story of George and Mar tha

by Mrs. Lois Abate, -staff a ccompanist for City College's music department vocal classes. The first segment will revolve around the " Black Crook" or how an improbable e vent started America 's musical melting pot boiling to becom e the greatest contribution to pre-eminace in the world of musica l comedy. It spans the years 1866 1910. The second segment (1910 - 1920) is devoted by the artist to coveri ng the emergence of Kern, Berlin, Romberg, Gershwin (who was a pit pianist at the time and who had his first hit, "Swanee," in 1919), the arrival of Cole Porter and the continuing reign of Cohan and Herbert. The year s 1920 - 1930 are covered in the thirst program . Hits from these yea rs, Tyers believes, are the backbone of every musical season in America and he gives them prime attention in song. Tyers concludes with songs from the 1930 - 1960 era, or wha t he calls the " transitional" period when American musicals come of age. Tyers has appeared in such Broadway shows as " Inside U.S.A.," start ing Bea Lillie, " Can-Can," " Arms and the Girls," and "Winged Victory." He has sung. leading roles in most of the major opera associations a cross the United States, a nd is pr esently engaged in teaching voice at City College.

San Jose MayOr Meets Student Press Members (Continued from page l) SOLUTIONS TO POLARIZATION Mineta views r estructuring San Jose City government so .c ouncilmen will run by districts rather tha n a t larg e as " a great idea," and one he began p rom oting in 1967 when first a ppointed to City Council. The innovation, in the form of a ·c harter amendment he recalls with regret, was turned down in 1968. Now he looks hopefully to the newly organized Cha rter Revision Committee to a ffec t the change. What people do now is write a letter dir ectly to the mayor or to the whole council. The difference, he explained, will be that " people will have som eone to vocalize the issues per tinent to s pecific a reas and hence, will reduce the polarizati on, s tra tification felt throughout the city." He sees instituting district council meetings in each of 11 San Jose a rea s monthly a s a step towards personaliza tion and district representation. DEVELOPE R OR CONSERVATIONIST? Asked whether he consid ers himself a de veloper or conserva tionist, Mineta stated that he believes there are ways to d evelop San Jose wit hou t brin g ing se r ious environmental damage while em ploy ing huma n r esources and r elieving over ta xed residential area dwellers. He proudly pointed to San J ose
as the only city in the nation that has developed an urban development plan, adopted in 1970, one which pla ces all parts of t he ci t~ in one of three categories : • URBAN RESERVE - Area s in which no development may take place. • URBAN - Areas which contain all needed public services, stormdrains to libraries.
