FULL AGENDA FOR

ancial status of the hospital as

building and a decision on the

I now state that this Constitu
tion embodies the best innova
tions of recent state constitution
al development. Its emphasis on
pouular control is most note
worthy, certainly an outstanding
feature. The Constitutional Con
vention is to be congratulated for
its superior product. I could only
wish that the other states, espec
ially in the Midwest, would learn
a lesson from the people of Al

GRANGE POSTPONES
APRIL 20 CARD PARTY
The card party, slated for Fri
day evening, will be postponed
from April 20 to April 27, it was
announced this week, because of
the Beta Sigma Phi style show
which falls on that date. The April
27 party will be the final one for
this season, and all card-player
fans are urged to attend for an 1
evening of fun.
I am particularly glad to note !
that authority over legislative i
apportionment and districting is
placed in the hands of the execu
tive and judicial branches of gov
ernment. Another commendable
feature of the Constitution is the
power given to any voter to com
pel the governor to reapportion
and to challenge the legality of
any apportionment act.
