Temporary
A fall enrollment of 1320
has been reported for
Howard Payne by the Of-
fice of the President
Tuesday.
The total compares to the
1981 fall enrollment of
1437 a drop of 117
students.
Dr. Ralph A. Phelps Jr.
HP president said the 8.1
percent decrease is not an
accurate conclusion since

Saturday's
By Travis Frank
and Steve Freeman
Following a lively open
forum discussion Student
Association Senate resolv-
ed Tuesday night to send a
letter of concern to the Stu-
dent Union Board the
university's student-
operated entertainment
organization.
The resolution passed
with a vote of 13 favoring
two opposing and one abs-
taining and stated that a
letter be sent to SUB ex-
pressing Senate's concern
and Senate's constituents'
concern over the type of
movies being shown.
SA treasurer Mary
Carter presented the first
resolution for a letter
which was defeated with a
vote of five favoring four
opposing and seven
abstaining.
Passage of the resolution
was defeated because it did
not meet the required two-
thirds majority of the
members present (12).
Miss Carter said she in-
troduced the resolution
after students expressed
concern to her about the
moral content of the SUB
movie "FM" shown last
Saturday night in Mims
Auditorium.
Miss Carter's resolution
was for Senate to send a let-
ter to SUB asking them "to
establish a review board to
include one faculty

enrollment
ment fluctuates during the
semester.
"The biggest decrease
did not come in regular
course enrollment but in
continued education
courses" Dr. Phelps said.
He explained that the
registration times for the
continued education
courses are staggered
throughout the semester
and total enrollment is still
uncertain because some
SUB movie
member other than then-
sponsor to review all
movies before they are
shown" and to replace the
package purchasing of
films if some movies are
questionable.
Senator Dana Daniels
who served on SUB last
year as films chairwoman
said she thought the resolu-
tion was a good idea
because the package pur-
chase of films is not hard to
discontinue.
During her freshman
year her films were
reviewed before they were
shown by the sponsor at
that time Ramon Garcia.
Unanswered questions
filled the room: What stan-
dards would such a review
board employ? Is the stu-
dent body being fairly
represented by such a
resolution? How should
SUB represent the students
in selecting movies and
concerts?
Freshman Senator Mark
Baird presented another
resolution to send a letter
to SUB expressing the
Senate's concern and their
constituents' concerns
about the type of movies
being shown.
The resolution carried
with one more vote than the
needed 12.
The resolution was sent
to the Constitution and By-
laws Committee to make a

As for regular enroll-
ment Dr. Phelps said only a
2.8 percent decrease is ap-
parent and that a lesser
decrease is found in the
total number of credit
hours sold.
"The important number
is the hours sold and we're
almost exactly on budget
for the year" he said.
Dr. Phelps added that an
increase in the enrollment
calls for letter of concern from SA Senate
final draft of the letter and
return it to Senate to be re-
approved and sent to SUB.
SA President Frances
Dzienowski said during the
debate that she had
discussed the issue with
Dr. Ralph A. Phelps Jr.
HP president after
students came to her ex-
pressing concern about the
SUB movie.
She said Dr. Phelps sug-
gested sending a letter to
SUB expressing concern
and suggest the setting up

resolution calling for a

After the first resolution

concerns could be express-

forum or through letters to
the editor of the Yellow
