Deplores Policy

A resolution staling that
Council "thoroughly deplores"
the Food Service Department's
policy of year-long contracts
and sale of a contract to
another student in order to be
released from the contract was
defeated by a five to eight
vote.

Though the majority of
Council favored the resolution,
it was defeated since this
problem is now under
consideration of the Council
Food Services Committee,
which will be able to present a
more researched and better
defined presentation.

Council also defeated Mr.
Huyett's proposal to send a
telegraph to Pres. Nixon
expressing Council's
disapproval of his present
efforts in the Vietnam
settlement. Members
denounced the proposal
because of the majority
opinion that Council should
not enter into national
political matters.
