President Jim Nicholson told the council that if attendance continues off, the group will have to meet every week again. His point of view was seconded by Mr. Lyle Cooper, who said that strong committees are needed, since Eastern is now so large that the student council cannot han- dle all the details of student gov- ernment. \We need,\ he said \common sense help for common sense problems.\ Acting on a motion made by Bill Acheson, the group decided to meet each Mon- day for roll call, with every other session being devoted to com- mittee meetings only.
