Take heed. sa i ling There have beena number of problems associated with the of college sailboats that have resulted in the damage or loss of boats and which should be corrected to maintain. sailing activities. The following guidelines are suggested to lessen wear on boats and increase safety of saUboat use. CHECK OUT: Sailboats must be checked out in the library at the main desk. The name of both people using the boat and the checkout time should be entered. This is the place also to pick up a daggerboard for your boat. LEAVING THE DOCK: When you are ready to leave, secure the sailboat in the wired harness. Before lowering it, it is advisable to gather the remaining equipment from the locker on the dock. In addition to the tiller, you must take one llie preserver per person (this is required by la\T'The rudder is often more easily assembled while the boat is in the harness than in the water. Paddle a fair distance upwind from the dock and keep the bow into the wind whUe raising the sail. Remember lhe area the shore is very shallow. RETURN AND CHECK-IN: Lower the sells far enough from the doCk so that there is no danger af hitting anything with any amount of force. Sails should be folded on them selves and secured to the boom by the clew line. If there is any damage, the boats are numbered; the number of the boat and the nature of the damage should be entered on the damage sheet when you check in. Be SURE to check in, or we will send the Coast Guard on an inevitably embarassing search at dusk. If you can1t make it by dusk, head for the nearest shore and phone the library desk.

From March 22 through March 24, along wilh some 318 college and university students from across the United States I attended the Student Lob?y <:onference in Washing ton, D. c.. Our specihc purpose m Washington was to lobby m support of student aSSiStance programs contained in the Higher Education Act. We pressed for the new Senate program of "Basic Grants" which is targeted primarily toward low-income and minority students. In addition we lobbied for f'Ull funding af existing student programs such as the National Student Defense Loan program and others. At the present time federal student aid programs are and grossly inadequate as far as meeting ex'ist.ing needs. In for instance, the amount appro pnated for Educational Oppo:rtunity Grants was less than SO percent of the amount which had been authorized. The ef fect of this was to deny money to some 300,000 students in 1971, for whom colleges had already approved requests Along with myself one other Florida student Ralph Edwards of Pensacola Junior College, attended the confer ence. Together we talked with Representative Sikes of the Florida delegation, as well as staff members frorr{ the offices of Representative Haley and Senators Gumey and Chiles. Those we talked to voiced their support of higher education. They were unwilling, however, to commit on how much actual funding they would be willing to support for the act. (The Basic Grants for in stance, would require approximately $900 to be fully ftmded.) Money, of course, is the crucial ISSUe. I thin_k, thou_gh, that we had a real impact; at least as a;> 1mpressmg the that a functioning or to lobby for student mterests does now exist. That JS, such an organization now exists on the federal level Unfortunately, Florida does not have an organization to lobby for students in the state legislature. I am inmrested in trying to begin such an organization. I hope that there are other similarly interested individuals in our community and that they will feel free to contact me conceming this idea. l D a a Q g o Q Q o a a g g 1 Craig Blakeley The following is an excerpt from Getting it together, ol. 2, #1; a publication of the College Program of Planned Parenthood-World Populati ono Th.e local agency here is Planned Parenthood Association of Sarasota County, Roy J.

There was no dynamite in the first report, but the next section contains specific recommendations for action by government and private :institutions. It is due to be-releas ed thiS Friday, March 17. Given tbe Commission's findings on unwanted pregnancy in the first section, it is highly likely that the Commission will recommend governmental actions to make all forms of fertility control available to make Americans better able to avoid unwanted births. Such actions would include more accessible contrace 've services maldn servies availab e to unmarried persons, reili of restrictive abortion laws increased avallabili of vo wt sterilization an contraceptive me ods. We ave leanred that the Right-to-Life organizations, a nationwide network of groups opposed to legalized abortion, are mobilizing to inundate the Whi House with telegrams protesting the Commission's recommendations. It is essential that the White House also receive the views of all of the American public who believe that accessibility of fertility control services, including abor Jon, would extend free choice to many couples and enable dangerous, illegal abortions to be replaced by safe, legal abortions. I urge you to telegraph the White House your full support of the Commission's report. Specify the Commission on Population Growth. Your telegram may be the one to persuade the White House to give the report its support. Your grateful friend, Alan F. Guttmacher, M.D. President Students: 11Arise to Freedom'."
