The Board in Control of
Student Publication at a meeting Tuesday reaffirmed an
earlier decision that it had no
jurisdiction over publications
not assigned to it.
Tuesday's action was in response to a request from the
President's Council.
The decision was based on
resolutions passed by the
Student Senate and University Senaie on November 5.
1962.
The resolutions require that
statements written by students
arid distributed on campus be
signed by the person responsible. They do not make allowance for the sale of the
publications.
The Student Social Code requires that students wishing to
sell products on campus file
application directly with the
vice-president of business and
finance.
Finance.
The Board decided, due to
these regulations and the
limitations of its own policies, it had no power to
govern or recommend action
regarding individual student
publications.
The Board did recommend
to President Judson Foust,
that it would take under its
control any publication assigned to it.
In other action at the meeting, the Board appointed Tom
Needels, Birmingham junior,
to the position of managing
editor of Life.
This action was necessitated due to the withdrawl
from school of John Carroll,
Marshall junior, who had
held the position. Carroll's
withdrawl was due io illness.
The Board also appointed
Ronn Minard, Saginaw senior,
to fill the position of news
editor of Life. Minard, in ad-
. dition to his post as news editor, will continue to fulfill the
duties of sports editor.
The policies governing
Tempo, student literary publication, were clarified and accepted.
The resignation of Robert
Cook, Bellaire junior, from the
position of Chippewa Business
Manager was accepted. The
Board appointed Dick Potter,
Mount Pleasant senior, to the
vacated position.

"Autumn . . . days of gold and brown and red and
orange. Days of corn shocks and cider and donuts.
Football and pom-pons and rah-rah. Indian summer
warmth fighting with Jack Frost . . . Jack wins. Wind
and rain and beauty in the trees. Burning leaves and
hay rides. A year growing old in golden glory." Then
comes Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks.
Thanks for
Life and liberty, friends and family
Health and happiness, opportunities and responsibility
The intellectual challenge, the struggle for progress
The beauty all about us, the helping hand.
We all have our disappointments and our defeats.
We have our failures and frustrations. Each has a cross
to bear.
May we recognize all this and still face life realistically, joyfully without concentrating on the limitations
of our lot. Let us instead use Thanksgiving as a time to
pause and think of the many things for which we
should be grateful.
Robert Frost wrote, "If you don't know what a
great country this is, I know someone who does —
Russia."
"O Thou who has given us so much, mercifully
grant us one more thing — a grateful heart."
Judson W. Foust, President
