University Daily Kansan Presents-
Coffin Has Immediate Goals Union Barber, Cleaning Shops
Expansion of the Union's facilities to include a barber shop, laundry, and a dry cleaning plant are among the goals that Donald Giffin, College representative on the All Student Council, hopes to set for the Council in 1950.
Soft-spoken Giffin has a politically effective manner that has brought success to many of his pet ideas before the Council. Other measures that the red-haired College junior would like to see Council action on in the future are:
1) Revision of the University regulation banning liquor in the rooms of students who have reached majority age. University rulings should agree with Kansas law. he believes.
2) The Council should assist in grading and choosing professors, and have a voice in determining general requirements for students. Giffin explained that student governing bodies in many other large universities have been granted these powers.
3) Disciplinary powers of the Council should be broadened to put "teeth" in the Council's decisions and enable enforcement of those rulings. He declared that expansion of the powers invested in the Council is requisite to an increased interest on the part of students in their school government.
"I would like to see the independent student have the same social

privileges that organized students have," Giffin stated.
He has been vice-president and social welfare chairman of the Independent Student association, an Owl society member, vice-president of International Relations club, and a member of the Varsity Debate squad. When Giffin was a two-week-old freshman student he attended the first organizational meeting of the now, inactive Independent Men's Political party.
"The Council as presently set up now divides itself on false standards
now divides itself on false standards —Greek and Independent. They split according to affiliation," he asserted. "They represent not a platform of ideas, but a few students who are only a part of the whole student body."
The 19-year old Kansan Citian presented the resolution that was adopted by the Council to make basketball tickets transferrable among students. He has served as acting and Tradition's committees chairman.
Besides his political activities, which has been on the honor roll twice. He enjoys all types of speaking with special emphasis on debating. He plans to enter law school next year and study for a career as a trial lawyer.
