In other words, James C a s s was a bore.
J a m j s C a s s came to speak at LHS armed with
the standard solutions and explanations in an
attempt to clarify the educational revolution.
Although Mr. C a s s ' s s p e e c h did have some merit
in that : h i s vast knowledge of the educational
s c e n e in America was concerned, the intangible
ingredients were still lacking.
C a s s , at great length, explained that there
is no such thing as TH 5 educational revolution
since the educational system is currently in
a constant s t a t e of flux. According t o C a s s ,
technology nlayed an integral role in s p u m i n g
the revolution.
I n an exclusive interview with Eagle Eye
C a s s discussed the problems encountered by
college administrations. He voiced the opinion
that " U n i v e r s i t i e s need not worry about organizations s u c h a s the S D S . " C a s s projected
that it is the middle group who are concerned,
u p s e t , and a h e n a t e d from the university, who
could eventually destroy the university.

LET'S GIVE 'EM HELL
" C o l o s s a l waste of t i m e . " T h e s e are the words which Mike
McLaughlin used last evening when he referred to President P a r s o n s '
16 point-by-point summation of the SCC constitution. Eagle Rye
must emphatically concur with this opinion (perhaps will outgrow it
and become nice mothers and fathers in ten years or s o ) .
Dr. Parsons appeared to be legitimately questioning whether the
resigning SCC members had followed their constitution improperly
during their period of office. We feel, however, that President
Parsons was in fact deliberately trying to challenge the integrity of
the former officers and to undermine any united student stand.
The SCC officers resigned because they realized that our so-called
student government is really only a puppet after a l l . If our SCC has
been a little children's game, then we are tired of playing this game.
The number of interested people who assembled a t la.st night's
SCC meeting was large enough to demonstrate that the students are
greatly concerned about their student government. And to have their
intelligence insulted by an explanation that the president h a s had
really wild girls who turned out to be nice mothers is almost offensive — even odious.
The overwhelming turn-out at the " B i t c h I n " (estimated 700-900
people) today is another outstanding fact which speaks for itself.
Although many students expressed their dissatisfaction in an
orderly and legal manner, mere talk will not make a dent in the
28-year period of the Howdy Doody puppet program. All the students
of this college must unite and fully support the properly channeled
measures of improvement — the new government now under Mike
McLaughlin. We will have changes at this college and we will have
them through the s t u d e n t s . Thr«)ugh the proper channels

President Parsons Colls Emergency SCC Assemblage
" I t doesn't matter to me. I'm
just an old man, with long years
of experience, like an old bull —
I'm used to e v e r y t h i n g , " stated
President Richard T . Parsons
during an emergency meeting of
the Student Cooperative Council
last evening.
This gathering was not an
official board meeting, but rather
an assemblage called by Dr.
Parsons because of the mass
resignation of six SCC officers.
In addition to members of the
board of directors, the meeting
was attended by s e v e r a l of the
coUege trustees i nd administrative
personnel
who were
invited by the president.
Implies 16 Deviations
Dr. Parsons referred at length
to 16 different points within the
s e e constitution. He implied
that the former student govern-
ment officers had not feiUowed
proper procedures in exercising
their d u t i e s .
The president said he had " t h e
purpose of perhaps an older person to younger persons. . . to
point out some things you probably never thought of."
The 16 constitutiemal points
ranged in topic from the duties
of each officer to financial considerations.
No More C h e c k s Signed
" T h e r e will be no more checks
s i g n e d " for SCC-funded clubs
Dr. Parsons s a i d , until Monroe
Hurwitz, SCC general manager,
receives the itemized budgets
of the organizations from the
student council.
Pay vouchers from organizations muct be checked against
the approved budgets
before
checks can be written. Parsons
pointed out.
Although checks have been
written u p until this point, no
more vouchers will be accepted
except
for necessary
materi a l s , the president warned. He
indicated that this order will
stand until the budgets are presented to Hurwitz.
' B a c k s ' New S C C C h i e f
While throwing no light on
the r e a s o n s for the resignations Dr. Parsons praised the
efforts and good motives of the
former SCC executives. He added that sometimes " i t ' s hard
for me to keep my cool in dealing with s t u d e n t s . I hope you'll
keep your cool t o o . "
The LHS president a l s o threw
his support to Mike McLaughlin,
the former SCC first vice president who has assumed the
duties of fwesident.
" H e ' s not all bad y e t , " Dr.
Parsons commented, adding that
he will " b a c k him (McLaughlin)
in his duties as p r e s i d e n t . "
Waste of T i m e
Following
the
president's
statements to the board members,
Mike McLaughlir cleared the room
of all but SCC membeia • id
advisors.
McLaughlin said he would uot
refute Dr. Parsons implications
of S L C ' S failure to follow its
constitution. This, he s a i d , would
be "another c o l o s s a l waste of
time."
He did, however, comment that
the
present SCC constitution,
which is being studied for revision, contains " c e r t a i n gears,
regulations, and cop-out d e v i c e s "
which the college administration
has used to control s t u d e n t s .
McLaughlin also s a i d that he

definite proof, tnai me constitution was originally written by

procedures could be begun there

The new SCC president said
that the council could return to

In other words, James C a s s was a bore.
J a m j s C a s s came to speak at LHS armed with
the standard solutions and explanations in an
attempt to clarify the educational revolution.
Although Mr. C a s s ' s s p e e c h did have some merit
in that : h i s vast knowledge of the educational
s c e n e in America was concerned, the intangible
ingredients were still lacking.
C a s s , at great length, explained that there

C a s s discussed the problems encountered by
college administrations. He voiced the opinion
that " U n i v e r s i t i e s need not worry about organizations s u c h a s the S D S . " C a s s projected
that it is the middle group who are concerned,

LET'S GIVE 'EM HELL
" C o l o s s a l waste of t i m e . " T h e s e are the words which Mike
McLaughlin used last evening when he referred to President P a r s o n s '
16 point-by-point summation of the SCC constitution. Eagle Rye
must emphatically concur with this opinion (perhaps will outgrow it
and become nice mothers and fathers in ten years or s o ) .
Dr. Parsons appeared to be legitimately questioning whether the
resigning SCC members had followed their constitution improperly
during their period of office. We feel, however, that President
Parsons was in fact deliberately trying to challenge the integrity of
the former officers and to undermine any united student stand.
The SCC officers resigned because they realized that our so-called
student government is really only a puppet after a l l . If our SCC has
been a little children's game, then we are tired of playing this game.
The number of interested people who assembled a t la.st night's
SCC meeting was large enough to demonstrate that the students are
greatly concerned about their student government. And to have their
intelligence insulted by an explanation that the president h a s had
really wild girls who turned out to be nice mothers is almost offensive — even odious.
The overwhelming turn-out at the " B i t c h I n " (estimated 700-900
people) today is another outstanding fact which speaks for itself.
Although many students expressed their dissatisfaction in an
orderly and legal manner, mere talk will not make a dent in the
28-year period of the Howdy Doody puppet program. All the students
of this college must unite and fully support the properly channeled
measures of improvement — the new government now under Mike
McLaughlin. We will have changes at this college and we will have
them through the s t u d e n t s . Thr«)ugh the proper channels

President Parsons Colls Emergency SCC Assemblage
" I t doesn't matter to me. I'm
just an old man, with long years
of experience, like an old bull —
I'm used to e v e r y t h i n g , " stated
President Richard T . Parsons
during an emergency meeting of
the Student Cooperative Council
last evening.
This gathering was not an
official board meeting, but rather
an assemblage called by Dr.
Parsons because of the mass
resignation of six SCC officers.
In addition to members of the
board of directors, the meeting
was attended by s e v e r a l of the
coUege trustees i nd administrative
personnel
who were
invited by the president.
Implies 16 Deviations
Dr. Parsons referred at length
to 16 different points within the
s e e constitution. He implied
that the former student govern-
ment officers had not feiUowed
proper procedures in exercising
their d u t i e s .
The president said he had " t h e
purpose of perhaps an older person to younger persons. . . to
point out some things you probably never thought of."
The 16 constitutiemal points
ranged in topic from the duties
of each officer to financial considerations.
No More C h e c k s Signed
" T h e r e will be no more checks
s i g n e d " for SCC-funded clubs
Dr. Parsons s a i d , until Monroe
Hurwitz, SCC general manager,
receives the itemized budgets
of the organizations from the
student council.
Pay vouchers from organizations muct be checked against
the approved budgets
before
checks can be written. Parsons
pointed out.
Although checks have been
written u p until this point, no
more vouchers will be accepted
except
for necessary
materi a l s , the president warned. He
indicated that this order will
stand until the budgets are presented to Hurwitz.
' B a c k s ' New S C C C h i e f
While throwing no light on
the r e a s o n s for the resignations Dr. Parsons praised the
efforts and good motives of the
former SCC executives. He added that sometimes " i t ' s hard
for me to keep my cool in dealing with s t u d e n t s . I hope you'll
keep your cool t o o . "
The LHS president a l s o threw
his support to Mike McLaughlin,
the former SCC first vice president who has assumed the
duties of fwesident.
" H e ' s not all bad y e t , " Dr.
Parsons commented, adding that
he will " b a c k him (McLaughlin)
in his duties as p r e s i d e n t . "
Waste of T i m e
Following
the
president's
statements to the board members,
Mike McLaughlir cleared the room
of all but SCC membeia • id
advisors.
McLaughlin said he would uot
refute Dr. Parsons implications
of S L C ' S failure to follow its
constitution. This, he s a i d , would
be "another c o l o s s a l waste of
time."
He did, however, comment that
the
present SCC constitution,
which is being studied for revision, contains " c e r t a i n gears,
regulations, and cop-out d e v i c e s "
which the college administration
has used to control s t u d e n t s .
McLaughlin also s a i d that he
b e l i e v e s , although he has no
definite proof, tnai me constitution was originally written by
Edward H. Young, a s s i s t a n t to
Dr. Parsons.
Offers Impeachment Move
Concerning
le r e s i g n a t i o n s ,
McLaughlin
i: " I a s s u r e you
it was due to ;io internal dissentlori " within
the
board—My
colleagues realize that SCC is
not a game to be played.
The meeting would be officially
called, McLaughlin s a i d , and
procedures could be begun there
for his impeachment a s president,
if that was what the board
wished.
The new SCC president said
that the council could return to
