The A.T.5.?A.

Ninety-nine per cent of the student body doesn't
know a thing about the A.T.S.A. other than its
name, Its functions. duties and purposes are deep,
dark mysteries. What goes on at its meetings seems
to be inviolable secret tor its members, Why are
the very things which the student body in general
should know kept under a heavy cloak of darkness?

How many students, the persons who are gov-
erned by the A.T.S.A,, know what is in the con~
stitution? Very few. Who knows how the budget
is made out and who has the most to say about
how the money is spent? Again the answer is——
very few.

Now we come to a still more important point
What with all of the student activity fees that are
paid to the A,T.S.A., why is the financial status of
this organization never revealed to the general siu~
dent body? True enough, the annual budget is
turned in and published on the front page of the
NEWS, but is there ever any deficit, or is there a
surplus? That is something which the students
should know. A complete financial statement, along
with the usual budget should be published every
year. it should show some amazing facts.

Perhaps the most interesting fact that would be
brought to light by the apparently unorthodox act
of publishing A.T.S.A. matters would be the above
mentioned matter of surplus. in 1933 the A.T,A.A..
as it was then called. had a surplus of nine thousand
dollars! ll the A.T,SA. budget is designed like
most other budgets, and we presume reasonably
that it is, this amount has increased considerably
in the last six years. What is this money for. where l
is it, and what is it doing?

Student loans are supposed to be granted from
ATSA, funds each year. The catalogue states‘
that clearly. Let us ask the entire student body;
for the enlightenment of all, just how many stu—
dents, now enrolled full time or part time, ever.
have borrowed from the student lurid? We have
nevar heard ot a Single case, but would like to tind.
out. i

inactivity has been charged against the ATSPA. ‘
on more than one occasion, and we charge them‘
With it once more. A good many students probably1
can call to mind the biting editorial about lack of
action which Howard Coyle, former sports editor
of the NEVi/S, wrote to the ATS A, last year. The:
iota? result of his noble effort was to raise a cloud
of dust which soon settled again. The good old:
board relapsed info Its former ways. Again this
year a further effort was made by an organizedi
student group to get things started, Changes ml
the constitution have even been proposed to allowl
more freedom of action by all concerned in ex‘l
pediting matters of importance. A good deal of
smoke was raised, but still the lackadaisical atti-,

tude of the board has managed to survive. Whatl
are the “Forces, other than human inertia, whichl
hold up the board’s action? l

With all these things in mind let us see it wel
can get the super-secret society to publish its dovl
ings, it any, for all to see, talk over, criticize, andl
act upon.

As he coasted down the hill he traveled faster and

generated its last. possible ounce of power. People were

the crowd held its breath. Like a flash he zoomed around
