C. Raymond Smith, industrial chaplain from Birmingham, England. The specific titles of the lectures sponsored by Religious Activities Com-mission are: Oct. 11, 7 p.m. "Challenge in the Church!"; Oct. 12, 7 p.m.-"Indus-trial Chaplains-Why? What for?"; and Oct. 13, 7 p.m.-"Power, Conflict, and Reconciliation." An informal forum will be held in the Dug Out following the Oct. 13 lecture. ALL OF THE lectures will be present-ed in the Main Lounge of Memorial Cen-ter. Rev. Smith will also speak at chapel Wednesday, Oct. 13, at 11 a.m. Smith is a native of Rhonddavalley in southern Wales, an area synonymous with the British coal-mining industry. Leaving school at the age of 14, Smith held a variety of jobs, including work in the coal mines. AFTER SEVEN years of industrial experience, he entered the minis-try. Since leaving Theological College, Smith has given service entirely in "working-class" industrial situations. Shortly following his ordination he was appointed to the First Methodist Indus-trial Chaplaincy on a fulltime basis. Since 1964, Smith has been affiliated with a small ecumenical team in Bir-mingham, England. He currently serves in the railway and electrical supply in-dustry and in one factory of the Brit-ish Steel Corporation. IN ADDITION to his assigned minis-try, Smith is a member of the National Church in Industry Committee of the Methodist Church and is a governor of the Intern Industrial College. He is also the chairman of the Social Responsibil-ity Department of the Birmingham Coun-cil of Churches.

Clarice EIImaker of Gulick and Chris Johnson of Theta Chi placed 1st. Ne W commissIon proposes 1to Ink S wi COunty Student Senate, through the proposal of a new commission, hopes to promote better university-community Understand-ing and to stimulate support for local causes and programs. Student Volunteer Action Commission was first conceived by a group of Wes-leyan students interested in obtaining state and federal funds for a conglomer-ate of student and community organiza-tions founded for the improvement of community living. Senate will discuss and vote on the acceptance of the new commission next week. Chaired by a student, the com-mission will include a secretary, treas-urer and not less than three sehators appointed by the executive committee. At least four administrative or faculty members will be appointed by the pres-ident of the university. Additional stu-dents will be selected as needed to carry out the duties of the commission. SPECIFIC DUTIES of the commission include coordinating the publication of the McLean County Economic Opportun-ity Corporation Newsletter; the activities of Environmental Action Committee; the selection of a student delegate to attend meetings of the Governor's Commission on Student Volunteer Action. In addition, the commission will co-ordinate other activities relating to stu-dent volunteer action in the Blooing-ton area. This body will also act as of-ficial recipient and administrator of any federal, state, local or other funds which are to be used by the university for student volunteer action. The group will work with the university administration in efforts to make IWU more responsive to the direct needs of the community. ONE OF THE established organiza-tions involved in the move is the News-letter published by Student Welfare and Human Relations Commission. It is dis-tributed free of charge to over 3,000 low-income people of McLean County. Senate has allocated $3,000 a year in cooperation with ISU's $2,000 for its publication. An increased circulation of 4,000 is anticipated in about three weeks. IN THE PAST EAC sponsored recy-cling drives on campus. When the new commission is instituted, EAC will branch out into the community. For ex-ample, the group will organize door-to-door politicking for enforcement of noise and pollution ordinances. Interested students can work in dif-ferent areas of their choice such as tu-toring, helping the handicapped or elder-ly and participating in community pro-jects. IWU STUDENT supporters are Steve Knapp, Newsletter staffer; Don Logue, senate president; Dee Ehmke and Vicky Wenger, both of EAC; and Randy Ben-eze, a former Newsletter writer. Approximately 50 people from Bloom-ington are currently involved. Included are heads of organizations such as the McLean County Economic Opportunity Commission, the Public Housing Ten-ants' Council and the Minority Commun-ity Workshop, which finds jobs for the unemployed and better jobs for the poorly employed. OFFICIAL DELEGATES, 50 from Illi-nois campuses, will coordinate informa-tion and volunteer action and offer sources of state and federal money for volunteer programs. If the commission is established at the next senate meeting, Don Logue will appoint a temporary commission head and three senatoirs. Time and place of commission meetings will be published. Anyone can contact members of the ex-ecutive committee for information. Homecoming house decs, but no floats "This year's parade may not be as successful without more participation from independents," predicted Chris Ny-weide, speaking for the Homecoming Commission at Sunday's senate meeting, Independent participation is stressed because Greeks are more involved in elaborate house decorations. No floats have been planned for the parade. Because of poor response to last year's homecoming evaluation, commission and housing unit evaluations were suggested. A RECOMMENDATION to the univer-sity concerning the purchase of four bike racks was passed. Three 18-bike racks were purchased, one to be used by Mun-sell and Ferguson, one for the residents of Magill, East, Dolan and one for Gulick. Locations of the racks will be deter-mined by the hall'. Total cost of the racks is X286.80. STEVE CAMPBELL, chairman of Stu-dent Welfare and Human Relations Commission, reported that tennis court signs are to be up soon. In another area, subcommittees have been established to work on the Rights and Responsibilities Code. Interested students may contact SWHR members in charge of specific sub-committees. Academic Affairs Commission discuss-ed the honor system and the possibility of a double major according to Sue Wykle, AAC chairman. CONSTITUTIONAL revisions concern-ing publication and communication management were approved. Gail Dixon was elected- Black Book Editor. During discussion of last week's con-fusion over procedure, President Don Logue said, "If that's all that's wrong with us, we're doing pretty well." But he urged senators to "keep in toUch as things gel and become more cqntrover-sial. A lot needs to be done and it's Senate'di job to do it," he concluded. Weber, Meyer furnis psychology counseling Counseling services are available to IWU students by appointment through the office of the Dean of Students. On Wednesdays from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Mr. Joe Weber from the Adolph Meyer Zone Center in Decatur will counsel. Dr. Duane Jones, Wesleyan's new assis-tant professor of psychology, will see students from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. on Mon-days and Fridays. The Dean of Stu-dents office has also announced that stu-dents living off-campus can pick up campus telephone directories at the main desk of Memorial Student Center today (Friday). umber 5
