MEMBERSHIP ELECTIONS Election of Ramin's Freshman. He is WCS. For the time being he doesn't mind being known as Ramin's Freshman. he spent a while trying to outdo Dan, but he dicided that would be impossible. He can't remember what computer he wrote his reasons on. He can actually stand SIPB meetings, & even enjoy them. Sex. The twenty-odd reasons are on Eddie. "Maybe the sergeant-at-arms should eject himself."- (sorry guys, in joke). He was elected. "Somebody go and chase him down and bring him the bad news."--JR.

MORE TREASURER'S REPORT Jay owes Howard dinner. Someone (the new treasurer) should get new monthly statement copies. We should stop paying for the forwarding of JSL's phone. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT CBF's letter has to be written again w/ RDZ's name on't. OFFICE REPORT We have to move. We don't know who is in charge. We seem to be sticking Amy and Carla with it. At least Amy is volunteering to do a lot of the stuff. She has one final; Carla has two. Members should know the combination of the strongbox. Jay has determined that the only people who know't are graduating or have graduated (GMP disputes this). Jay saw Dorothy Corbett copying our SIPB signs in the terminal room to make good-looking new signs for building eleven. He couldn't convince anyone that it would be a good idea to have dispatch hours posted on the door for when it's closed. Someone should get Bill to play the office game. Otherwise we can do it by hand. Are we going to have a loft in the new office? are we going to have Cokecomm? COMPUTER SERVICES JCF applications when autoed should go into the same file as 370 applications. You should write on it that it is a jcf application, everything you wrote on the card, that you sent it if you did. warning forms. Jay no longer has the heart to give warning forms, but there's a lot of borrowing of accounts going on. TELECOMMUNICATIONS REPORT There's going to be a lot of telecommunications work to be done this weekend. Multics will be moving. This has important implications for lines in student center etc. Wiring the terminal at Random [edited]. The Burton House z19 was installed w/ help from Clark, and the Burton House LA36 was fixed. The Dec repairman was here today and may have fixed something. The question of the phone bills comes up. No one knows the current treasurer's mind in this matter. TERMINAL REPORT The Burton House has already been described. ZBT's broken h19 is sitting in the office. They traded it for a considerably less broken h19. RK believes that Wes offered us the money to put our z19's on service contract. He moves that we do that in July when that money starts to exist. motion carries. ANNUAL-REPORT REPORT It's about time to start thinking about the annual report. CBF thinks that maybe we should fold it into the budget proposal. Many others disagree. POP TO TREASURER'S REPORT Are we planning to fund students taking IPS courses? Should we ask for it in our budget proposal? (have asked for it). PUBLICATIONS REPORT OTHER APPLICATIONS Total appropriations: $ (without Coop) Autoed: Student: $ 370: $ EC: Student: $ 370: $ To Meeting: Student: $ 370: $ Coop: $ OTHER OTHER On Saturday afternoon there will be a trip to Brookline Avenue Red Cross because TCA wimped out on having a May blood drive. Carlamy like RK's purple shoelaces. The meeting was adjourned at 9:05. Minutes taken and submitted by katharine. (in entirety. Clark's taken them often enough for me).
