INDIES ATTE3IPT ANOTHER UNION (See Editorial - Page 3) *** Florida's Oldest College Neivspaper *** JOKER CLUB, CELLAR DOOR OPEN TONIGHT 73TH YEAR NO. 21 FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 1966 PRICE 10 CENTS .\>11 Indicates Independents To Organize By JEFF LEDEWITZ Curious as to why the indc- --ndents, who comprise some 1 per cent of the campus popu- ""iion, aren't a more unified Tee on campus, a questionnaire ■ 'as recently circulated among ""0 students. The results break '.'.own as follows: Seventy-eight per cent feel an independent organ i z a t i o n would be a desirable thing and indicated they would help in its formation. Ten per cent indicated they felt there was no need for such an organization. Twelve per cent express no interest either way. When the survey was taken, -'Tie of the questions hi the minds f the pollers was whether or ot the last - mentioned group "ally formed a large core of •.pathetic students. The results Indicate it does riot. It was emphasized from the iiitset, and should be re-empha- lized now, that what was in -wind was hot and is not an inti-greek organization, but ratih- ;r a pro-independent one. Competing faotions could only split ind weaken the campus, A loose organization of in- lependents, on the other hand, vould not. only help aspiring n dependents (whether. political- y, athletically, or socially) but vould also hopefully unite the 3reeks on an inter- and even: ntra- competition basis. In line with the findings of ;ho survey, there will be a rally held Wednesday night, March >0, at 7 p.m. in the Stetson Hcom of the SUB. Among others, Bill Schneider, president of SG, will address those who come. Afterwards there wUl be free refreshments and, hopefully, any interested parties, pro or. con, will stay for a while to discuss the' ideas presented and make suggestions. , If., anyone wants any further information concerning the actual results of the survey or plans,for an organization', or has any suggestions or criticisms, contact either Jeff Ledewitz, Box 438, or Mike Smith, Box 171.
