Flanagan 10 Supper
Edwards in Virginia
Race for Governor
BY the Assoeioted Press

BRISTOL, Va, Mar. 19.-For-
mer Representative John w.
Flanagan :of the 9th District
came out for Horace H. Edwards
for governor today with bristling
Idenunciation of "the oligarchic
few who have, been exercising die
tatorial powers over our people" !"
Mr.. Flanagan said, "for years
those in authority in Virginia have
not attempted to translate the
thoughts, aspirations and ideals
of our people into realities. On
the contrary, they have forced
upon the people of this great
State their own narrow. selfish
and antiquated thoughts, aspira-
tions and ideals and as a conse-
quence thereof. democracy in Vir-
ginia has been dead-stone dead
for 10. these many years.
LAS the payof to the people
of Virginia. we have a poor school
system, few honest-to-goodness
farm roads, an anti
quated health system, oppressive
labor laws, few rural telephones,
and rural electrification system
far short of what it should be-"
Withdrew From Race.
Mr.. Flanagan, after nine terms
in the House. did not run for
reelection last fall. His seat
was won by Thomas Fugate of
Lee County, who was backed by
the dominant State Democratic
organization.
Mr.. Edwards. for eight years
chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee, severed his
connection with the party hier-
archy last summer when he an
nounced that he would seek the
gubernatorial nomination. He
has since come out for a middle
of-the- road policy calling for
imposition of a sales tax and a
minimum wage for Virginia public
school teachers.
State Senator John S. Battle
of Charlottesville generally is re-
garded as the candidate favored
by the organization.

University of'Virginia
Student Council 10
Gef Greater Powers
BY the Associated Press
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Mar. ]

O11ESV1lLE, Mar. ~.
University of Virginia Students
are working out an experiments Ia
Eself-go overnment which they fApo
eventually viii have sall the Atl-
tthority and prestige of their
century old. honor system. at
Z President Colgate w. Darden
said today he was Nfir1nly cons
vinced" of the ability of the stu
dents to discipline themselves. "
THE Student Council will OPP
crate under the broadest grant
of power given to students of any
educational institution in the
United States" Mr.. Darden de-
! clared.
His statement followed a con-
ference with Student Council
President Don E. Hood, engineer
ing senior from Baltimore, re-
garding the final draft of the
revised charter on. which the
council will act next week.
CRITICISM Recalled.
Attention was focused on the
student government system earlier
this week when criticism of social
life at the university was ex-
pressed in a report by j. H. New
man, dean of students. The dean
charged that unchaperoned girls
and women were being enter
tanned "at all hours" in the
dormitory rooms and that drink
ing was a particularly serious
problem at the school.
President Darden said his con-
viction that the students can gov
ern themselves "deepened' be-
cause OF student action recently
which fined a fraternity house and
closed it to social activities for
go days because of a violation of
rules governing social events laid
down by the Board of Visitors.
The disciplinary action was
taken by the Inter- Fraternity
Council. Council spokesmen said
sthe fraternity, which was not
named, was not guilty of any
"Flagrant" misconduct but had
broken rules regarding the
chaperoning of social events.
Experiment Started in May.
The new experiment, giving
broadened authority to the Stu
dent Council, began last May.
Since then, the council has passed
on 27 cases and imposed punish
ments ranging from warnings to
probation for cases of public
drunkenness. The latter punish
ment bars students from taking
part in social events. athletics and
other student activities.
The University Honor Commit
tee. made up of members elected
by the student body, has authority
in dealing with cheating, falsiflca-
ton. and theft.
Authorization for the new,
broadened authority for the stu
dent council was given by Mr..
Darden last May after a confer
ence with students.
"Students must learn to govern
and discipline themselves while
they are in the university or we
cannot expect them to be able to
direct affairs of cities, State or
Nation in later years, Mr.. Darden
said then.
In the past, the Student Council
has operated under a flexible
charter. A revised and more spe-
cifically worded charter has been
approved by Mr.. Darden and may
be adopted Tuesday night.

PIans Underway To
Refinish Floor
At Roller Rink

Roller skating at the Civic Cen
ter is increasing in popularity and
attendance every week, and is to
be continued despite a strange ru-
NOR in town to the contrary. 1t may
be necessary to close for few
days in order to improve the floor
with "a special filler which is ex-
pected to eliminate most of the
dust which is an Objectionable fea-
ture just at present.
The Athletic Association is the
result of a concerted movement of
several civic organizations to pro-
vide healthful and safe entertain
ment for Seward young people.
The experiment has been emil
nently successful and will be car
ried on indefinitely. 1t was found
however, that a great amount of
dust fills the air Of the building
after few hours of continual
skating because the floor, after
sanding, has many minute cracks
which gather the dust of sweeping,
and the continued friction of skate
wheels has a tendancy, not only
to circulate the dust, but to create
more by the wearing away OF the
wood itself.
The new filler and surfacing will
be a marked improvement in the
safety of the building as well as
giving a better skating surface.
The Association is also planning
