Gazette Staff on HALIFAX (CUP):The Dalhousie University Student Council January 28, overruled the staff of the student News— paper , the Dalhousie Gaz— ette, and appointed one of their own council members, Ken McDougall, as editor . of the paper for a one year term. The action was a viol- ation of the Canadian Uni- versity Press (CUP) state- ment of principles. The G- azette was a founding mem— ber of the 35 year old st— udent press organization. The staff had elected Marg Bezanson, who worked on the paper for two years, as Editor before the Coun- cil meeting.

Attempts are also being made to have a motion of reconsideration brought before the next council meetingf The_staff was also prepared to put out an alternate newspaper should the council stand by their decision not to have Bez- tanson Gazette Editor. BezanSon planned to continue the policy of staff democracy and collec—\ tive decision — making. McDougall intended to enfo— rce his power as editor and carry on a form of autocracy. However, he did concede that the supreme authority would be the Student Union. The council Overlooked the relative experience of both applicants and the fact the present staff would strike if McDougall was chosen editor. It vot- ed ovarwhelmingly in fav— our of McDougall. Following the passage of the motion appointing McDougall Editor, the Gazette staff, a majority of which attended the meeting, left. The motion was t n made to make McDougall editor effective immediately. It was defeat-r ed.

Over one hundred cur- ious people crowded into the Panther/Lounge last n Friday after the hockey ga- me to listen to three very promising entertainers.Not knowing exactly what to ex- pect, the audience just sat back and waited. What they received was'an hour and a half of entertainment,folk and folk—rock music. Bill Gardiner started the even— ing with an unknown number called golden vanity then broke into a change of pace with two French folksongs which were well received by the audience. The audience seemed to enjoy the performance more assthe evening progr— essed and wanted more when the final song was played.
