... proudly we hail
America. Land of the free, and home
of the brave. The place where democ¬
racy, with a small d, reigns supreme.
Austin (Tex.), March 15 — (AP) —
There will be no campus vote today on
whether students think Negroes should
be admitted to the University of Texas.
The referendum approved by the stu¬
dent assembly was blocked ... by the
. . . Proponents said it was intended
only to measure student thinking in the

Last Spring, arone of the late meetings
of the student council, the members
voted to raise the price of the student
body card $1.
This dollar was to be added to the $1
slice which was already appropriated for
the health office, for expenditures; such
as medical aid, medicines, and supplies.
That means that the health office re¬
ceived approximately $4,800 of student
money over a one year period. And so far
no report on where that money went has
been forthcoming.
In the regular run of the student gov¬
ernment, students are represented on all
faculty committees, except one.
Larry Johnson, freshman orientation
committee chairman, is the student rep¬
resentative on the health committee.
Other students are on the committee, too;
but we don't hear anything from them
either; so we would have to look into the
back files to discover who they are.
We have to admit that $4,800 is a lot
of money, we also have to admit that we
have a right to know where it is going —'
if it is going.
Some of the money is used to pay the
salaries of the nurses and doctors on
duty, some is used to buy supplies, but
docs that take all of it? If it does, how-
did the health center get along last year
on only half that amount?
No appreciative differences in the
health plan were announced, if they were,

There arc many things in this world that

Bitted millions have been the object
of inquiry by literally thousands of scientists,
and in cases such as the Marie Celeste
the Portland Vase the answer is invarii
the same: there exists no possible explt
One of the most provocative mysteries of
this sort is the origin of the Gulsl.u.
aid, which suddenly appeared in the British
bury Emerald. It is a gift from me to the
people of England and I wish it to be display¬
ed so that all may enjoy its beauty."
When the package was opened it was found
to contain a large, transparent green stone
simately 28 carats weight, flawless
and of the first water. It possessed many pe¬
culiar characteristics never before found '-
emeralds and mineralogists were called in
determine the origin of the stone.
They were unable to do so. Study of t
stone was made by several university pro¬
fessors who were able t..
a peculiar structure the like of which they
had never before observed; it had the hard¬
ness of glass, the translucencc of glass, and
peculiar bubble formations found in the heart
of the stone were exactly  Iiks- lh'.-.' found
They suggested that Scotland Yard be put
.:i tin' case to find the missing donor 'i '
Find out where he had gotten the stone.
Last week, after over 50 years of search
the old man was found hiding in the sewers

the secret that the world had waited 50

While the old man slowly expired he ex-

to whom? We never heard of them, and
would like to.
Under the present financial set-up at
Fresno State College the prices of stu-
dnt association cards are high enough,
without having to pay another dollar and
not know what happened to it. (This
should not concern the. veterans, since
the government pays for their card.)
A report from Mister Johnson should
