Butler Student Council officials today sought student representation
at faculty meetings when questions involving the student body arise. Two Council members plan to visit James Putnam, president of‘ the
official request. The plan was suggested by William Hart, president of the group. An editorial in the Collegian, campus newspaper, praised Mr. Hart’s suggestion and students were quick to take up the idea. The editorial declared the request for a student representative is “not one of ‘noseyness’ . . . but, rather, an honest conviction that a college student should have that much ‘say-so’ in a situation involving him. “It is not’ the idea of the council to have its representative made a voting member of the faculty meetings, but merely to express . .student opinion.”

Angelo Angelopolous, author - of the editorial and a Council member, said that as far as he knew no other school has such representation. Of course, he said, every school has some sort of student representative body, but usually they do very little toward acquainting faculty members with student opinion. Last years, he said, the Council did manage to have a representative make a recommendation at one faculty meeting, and it was adopted.
A course in Federal income taxes, designed to aid businessmen, bookrs and accountants, will be offered the second semester at the Butler University evening division. The course will include explanation of Federal laws and regulations. - Meanwhile, it was announced that registration for the second semester will be held Jan. 31.

Former Rail Man Is Ordered To Serve Sentence.
Eugene Roby, former railroad employée, now under one-to-10-years sentence for manslaughter in connection with a traffic accident, today was denied executive clemency by Governor Townsend. : He was, sentenced in St. Joseph County as a result of a fatal accident July 25, 1937, on Road 31. The Indiana Supreme Court affirmed the lower court judgment and refused Saturday to grant a petition for rehearing. Mr. Roby has been at liberty under bond pending the Supreme Court ruling. In refusing the petition after he had authorized the State Clemency Commission to investigate the case, Governor Townsend said: “While Mr. Roby’s petition supported by the pleas of citizens of influence and importance in Southern Indiana unquestionably has merit, it would be inconsistent with my ideals of justice to grant him a pardon of parole.” Mr. Roby hives In New Albany,
