For the first time in ten years, the Korean
Orphanage Drive did not reach its goal.
A total of $4,277.25 was collected, which
was $2,222.75 short of the goal.
Asked why she felt the drive didn't reach its
goal, Pamm Webb, Jackson sophomore and committee chairman said, "I don't know if there was
any one particular factor. You can always count
on a certain number of students being apathetic,
but I think the major problem had to do with the
debt affair which was uncovered last spring."
The debt originated five years ago when an
orphan was hit by a truck purchased by CMU for
the orphanage. The child needed a series of operations for which the Mun San Orphanage director
went into debt.
According to Miss Webb, because of this debt
"Students feel that the funds are being misused."
She commented that with the funds collected
now, the orphanage can be supported for a year,
but that "They'll have to cut down on their expansion program. They'll have to live from day to
day, and won't be able to plan ahead."
Leading all organizations and dorms in money
collected was Woldt Hall. A total of $821.16 was
raised by a stuffed animal sale, grub dinner, resident adviser auction and sponge throw among
others. Woldt will receive the annual trophy given
for the dorm or organization collecting the most
money.
The figures from the other dormitories were:
Trout, $512.68; Barnes, $468.68; Beddow, $341.91;
Tate, $321.42; Ronan, $319.22; Sweeney, $181.13;
Herrig, $183; Calkins, $182.41; Larzelere, $128.73;
Thorpe, $108.18; Merrill, $89; Emmons, $78.29;
Robinson, $55.36; Saxe, $42.13; Barnard, $16.05;
Sloane, $6.40.
Unofficial receipts are, the Associated Women's
Students, "Cinderella Night," $159.08; private donations, $128; Student Social Activities Committee
dance, $74.65; Omega Chi sorority, $14.75.
Off-Campus Senators
Third Election Held Today
Today, for the third time this semester, a Student Senate election will be held to fill five
vacancies in off-campus Senate districts, according to Jan Helmboldt, acting elections director.
Polling on Tuesday will be in the University
Center from 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. and from 7-9 p.m.
Districts three and 10 were left vacant in both
previous elections because no one voted or because
of voting ties in which each name written on the
ballot received one vote.
The vacancies in districts eight and 12 are due
to senators being excused from their duties because
of having missed two Student Senate meetings.
One name, that of Chris Kjolhede, district
10, will be placed on the ballot, others running in
these districts will be write-in candidates, Miss
Helmboldt said.
Regarding action that might be taken if one
or more Senate seats is left vacant, Student Body
Vice President Dee Boersma said that due to the
lack of interest shown it would be senseless to
Central's Budget
Smaller Then Most
Central's budget in proportion to the size of
the student body is less than most state supported
schools in Michigan, according to figures released
recently by the state Bureau of the Budget.
Although the state legislature makes the final
decision on how much money each school receives,
legislators rely heavily upon recommendations
made by the Budget Bureau. The bureau bases
part of its recommendations on projected enrollments of the 14 colleges and universities supported
by the state.
While Central's budget for administrative and
operating purposes totals $8,138,306 or an increase
of 14.7 per cent over last year's appropriations,
this year's allotment is $1.9 million below the
figure originally requested by the administration.
The Budget Bureau based its recommendation
for Central on a projected enrollment of 10,477
students, which is 1,003 less than this year's actual
enrollment of 11,500 students.
Michigan State University has approximately
3-8 times as many students as CMU, but was
appropriated 5.7 times as much money proportionately as was Central. The University of Michigan
has 3.4 times as many students but has a budget
lrJ proportion 7.7 times greater than CMU. In
other comparisons Western Michigan University
has 1.6 students for every student at Central and
receives $1.90 more per student than does Central.
Central has nearly 40 per cent more students
than does Ferris State College but receives proportionately only 10 per cent more than Ferris
for operating expenses.
spend the time and money involved to hold another election.
If this happens, these Senate seats will be left
unfilled unless someone becomes interested in filling them. In this case, with Senate approval, an
appointment could be made.
Miss Helmboldt said the reason that there will
be only one polling place in this election is because
there are not enough students willing to work at
the polls.

Terri Vogel was crowned Central's
1969 Sno-Queen Sunday night by Candy
Halliday, 1968 Sno-Queen, after the final
contest in Warriner Auditorium.
Miss Vogel, Bay City freshman, was sponsored by Merrill and Sweeney Halls. She
performed a Hungarian gypsy dance as her
talent portion of the competition. Talent
counted 40 per cent in judging.
First runner-up was Gail Misekow, Grand
Blanc freshman. She, sponsored by Larzelere
Hall, sang a medley. Mt. Pleasant freshman,
Linda Stankwitz, candidate of Omega Chi
sorority, was second runner-up. She played
Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude" on the piano.
Miss Vogel will represent Central at the
Michigan Intercollegiate Sno-Queen contest
at Northern Michigan University in February Miss Halliday was first runner-up at
the contest at Northern last year.
Sunday's contest was viewed by approximately 500 students and included 10 finalists
in talent competition, gown presentation and
response to a question.
To her question concerning her concept
of love, Miss Vogel said, "Love means something different to every person. It involves
respect and honor. Love exists when the life
of someone else means more to you than
your own."
Dancing lessons for 10 years have been
part of her life, Miss Vogel said and added,
"I have so much fun when I dance that
even in the contest all nervousness left me."
Miss Vogel is a speech major and Spanish
minor on an elementary curriculum.
