There are only two
statements in Mr. Roy Payne's
letter to the Editor of
February 25 to which I care to
reply.

The first is his implication
that I received a salary as
student body president, I
received no compensation
whatsoever, and I should note
that the proposals in the Spring
of 1971 for a presidential
salary were for FUTURE
presidents, so I would not
benefit if they had been
approved. I might add that a
room on the Lawn is also not
provided to the Student body
president; I applied for my
room in the Spring of 1970
and paid for it just like
everyone else.

The second point I wish to
make is that I am pleased that
Mr. Payne considers me an
"institution."
