Jj/WCollegian Deficit Revealed
At Board of Control Session;
Tabloid-Size More Expensive
Departmental finances were the focal point of a lengthy discus-fsion
at the Board of Control meeting Wednesday. The principal
issue involved concerned the 1948-49 expenditures for the WWCol-legian.
According to a report from Alton Magnuson, present
business manager, total cost qf publishing the new tabloid-size
eight page paper for the entire school year would run approximately
31,100 more than was approved under this year's ASB
budget.
DR. VAN AVER ON BOARD
While attending the Par East
conference at Central Washington
college, Ellensburg, April 28-30, Dr.
Albert Van Aver, of the WWC English
department, was elected to the
executive committee of the Planning
Committee on the Par East in
Higher Education.
Rankin Vice Presidentr
Hodges and Hannah
On Board of Contro||
Bill Jones was elected Wednesday to head the student body for
the year 1949-50. He was chosen in an election which had the largest
number of votes cast in the history of Western. : ..I
Loren Rankin was voted in as Jones' helpmate on the vice
presidential ticket. Cecil Hannan and Barbara Hodges were elected
four quarter man and four quarter woman to the Board of Control,
respectively. The amendment, which is for the addition of four
members to the Board of Control, was passed by a vote of 406 for
and 44 against. .
Gus Pagels and Fred De Bruler, incumbent ASB president
and vice-president respectively,
In the absence of the fall quarter
editor and manager, Mrs. Ruth
Burnet, publications adviser, was
present to explain to the board why
the Collegian's finances show a potential
deficit. She said that the
tabloid-size paper, adopted for the
first time last fall, contains about
1000 more words and costs about
$30 more per issue, and that the
cost of printing labor and news
stock rose sharply last October.
Mrs. Burnet also pointed out that
the advertising for the tabloid paper
did not average 150 inches per issue
as the fall quarter editor had estimated
when seeking the board's
authorization for the change.
George Dowd, fall quarter editor is
being contacted in Washington, D. C.
for a statement since the discussion
leading to the adoption of the tab-ibid
does not appear in the minutes
of the board.
Board members expressed the
opinion that they should have been
informed of this situation sooner.
They concurred in the belief that a
solution must be found to offset the
deficit if possible. Several suggestions
were made concerning the best
method for curtailing Collegian expenditures
for the remainder of this
year. The board asked that these
suggestions be passed on to the publications
staff, and that the staff
present, the most feasible plan for
approval at next Wednesday's board
meeting.
QUESTIONNAIRE READY
Dr. Maurice Freehill, chief of the
Bureau of Research, reported that
the questionnaire prepared by the
Faculty-Student Committee on Ex-tra-
Curricular Activities is ready for
use. Conclusions drawn from the
results of the quiz will be utilized
by the committee in planning improvements
in next year's activity
schedule. Dr. Freehill asked each
board member to recruit five vol-
