To Stand Pat Parker Says -Ruling Is One Of "Policy" Nick Read and Bill staff nominees for co-editorship of the (Carolina Magazine and candidates of the University party, stated yesterday that they would "stand pat" until the P. U. board acts on the principle held invalid by the Student Council.

The council recommended that the P. U. board declare dual editorship counter to Article sec- ion provision 2 of the P. U. constitution which states that one of the powers of the board is to appoint and set forth the duties of all other paid officers the various publications, excepting that the editor-in-chief of the various publications are elected by the Union." Precedent President Parker said that the ruling on the clause more one of policy than of interpreta tion, and that the council felt a dangerous precedent might be set in all campus elections to encourage political compromises in the form of co-editorships as well as in other dual officers in non-publication campus posi tions.

In an opinion, in which Hud son concurred, Read said that he saw no reason "why we should be victims of a ruling which fears precedents when the ruling will be abolished if the campus approves of staff elections." Parker expressed the belief that the student council would approve any action taken by the P. U. board.
