Under a plan proposed by the student assembly, the men's select will be responsible for maintaining all ASG records while the women's select will have the added task of coordinating student services.

Continued work on new student services highlighted the activities of the ASG this week. Following the delivery of the display refrigerator, emphasis for the student nutrition center has been focused on obtaining store counters. Plans now call for the center, to be named the Good Food Store, to open next month. "I would like to encourage input from the students so that we can fi nd out what ·items the store should carry," said stude.nt assemblyman Brian Hawthorne, who has been co~ordi nating new services for the ASG. Organic fruits and vegetables, nuts, dairy products, raw juices and pastries are .among the items expected to be included in the store, which will be located in the Student Union. Meanwhile, much of the progress of the arboretum (natural pa-rk) has been delayed due to the pad weather. The · next ..step in the project will be excavation of the land, fol1owed by planting. "Currently, there is a dispute con.. _cerning . what type of vegetation should be included in ' the arboretum,• Hawthorne noted. •som'e 'people prefer native vegetation while others want plants from various parts of the world." Another new ASG service, the emergency loan fund, has alre.ady begun operations this semester.
