Five Delegates Will Head for NSA Meeting

Mt. Holyoke Site of Weekend Conclave

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Armed with a proposed draft constitution prepared by Frederic D. Houghteling '50, the College's five-man delegation to the first Northern New England regional conference of the Natural Student Association will journey to Mount Holyoke today intent on "getting NSA off to a solid start in this vicinity."

Regional chairman Lawrence Jaffa 2Div announced that in addition to adopting the Constitution which will govern NSA'S activities locally, the gathering of 50-odd schools plan outlining a specific program of projects for the coming term.

Need Full Cooperation

"In order to translate NSA's ideals into reality," Jaffa said, "we will have to secure the cooperation of each and every institution. In this connection we will delegate different aspects of NSA work to different schools while everyone is on hand at Holyoke."

Harvard already handles the NSA regional "commission" on student international affairs. William J. Richard '49, a Student Council member, chairs the commission's work with the active cooperation of Robert Smith 1G, national NSA vice-president in charge of the international division, whose office is currently in Philips Brooks House.

The College contingent includes Theodore H. Turner '50, John Silverstone '49, and David C. Poskanzer '50 as well as Houghteling and Richard. At the Madison Convention this September which set NSA on its way Houghteling served as member of the Council-sponsored College delegation with Richard and Poskanzer acting as alternates. Silverstone accompanied the delegation in the capacity of observer.
