stamp of approval to the new campus daily bulletin which
will begin operation sometime during the first week of
Winter Term.
Sept. Encampment
To Be Evaluated
An end of the term "Encamp
ment Review" has been proposed
by many of those that par
ticipated in the September
Encampment. The Encampment
was attended by Behrend ad
ministrators, faculty and
studentS to discuss Behrend
problems. The purpose of such a
review would be to evaluate the
Encampment and to examine the
outcome of many of the proposals
that were recommended by
members of the Encampment.
This review_ of the Encamp
ment is to be held in the Quiet
Lounge on December 10. It will
begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at 12:00
so - that overnight ac
commodations will not be
necessary for the participants.
A tentative agenda for the
Encampment is attached.

`Daily Bulletin' Project
Effective for Winter Term
by Doug Leichliter
Managing Editor
Davis P. Gie rsCh, chairman of
the Student Services Committee
of the Behrend Faculty
Organization, announced the birth
of a "Daily Bulletin".
The bulletin will list all
Behrend activities that occur
each day. Focusing on committee
meetings., class cancellations,
club events and activities,
registration and advising in
formation, athletics, field trips.
and general campus activities,
the Bulletin will be open to
everyone in the University
community.
Giersch said that it will be the
responsibility of people to get all
necessary information to Miss
Patty DiNicola, Behrend
Receptionist before 8:30 a.m. for
the morning that it is to appear.
Material can either be telephoned
in or dropped off in the office.
Giersch noted, however, that
material can be sent in several
days in advance.
The project is being handled
jointly by CWENS and Circle K.
Each organization will be
responsible for the daily
operation of the bulletin for half
of the term. All materials sub
mitted will be picked up each
morning at 8:30, typed,
mimeographed. and put up at
central locations in each of the
main campus buildings by 9:00
a.m. Giersch said, "I hope that
there will be two places in each
building for a bulletin." Ideally it
is hoped that a regular place can
be cleared on the main bulletin
boards for the daily issue of the
bulletin.
Kit Murphey (Ist-EL ED-State
College), noted, "I think it should
have been put into effect sooner.
It will relieve much of the hassle
of a person coming- out here and
waiting around all day to find out
that his 6th period class was
cancelled."
The original concept of the
bulletin was conceived in the
Student Services Committee. It
was later officially sanctioned by
the Student Government
Association. It should begin
operations sometime during the
first week of Winter Term.
Giersch and the members of
CWENS and Circle K have high
hopes for the Daily Bulletin.
Hanging of Greens
Christmas spirit and good will pervaded the atmosphere
at the annual Hanging of the Greens in Wintergreen Gorge
this week. Father Guy Patrick delivered the address.
Giersch said, "Hopefully this will
become part of a daily routine.
When faculty and students come
to the campus each morning,
everyone will check the bulletin
first thing." Giersch went on to
say, "It has to be recognized by
everyone on the campus to
become successful," and added,
"Now there isn't any reason for
anyone to miss the campus ac
tivities for lack of knowledge."
The idea of the daily bulletin
could possibly be expanded to
Strindberg
Staged On
August Strindberg's "Miss
Julie" is a drama more often
read than seen. This Friday,
at 7:30 p.m. and again at 9:30
p.m., students and faculty
will have the opportunity to
see what has been classified
as one of the great plays of the
modern stage. A special
production of "Miss Julie",
featuring a cast and director
from the graduate School of
the Pennsylvania State
University Department of
Theatre Arts, will be
presented in the Studio for all
interested members of the
campus community. The only
charge will be twenty-five
cents to defray the traveling
expenses of the group.
"Miss Julie" is essentially
a simple story. A decadent,
bored and unhappy young
aristocratic woman seeks a
new thrill in a liason with a
smooth, vulgar but virile
servant. A similar kind of love
affair served as the basis for
D.H., Lawrence's Lady
Chaterrley's Lover, but
Strindberg's treatment is
harsher.
The dialogue of the play is
free and outspoken and has
the fits and starts of real-life
Thursday, December 2, 1971
include personnel items provided
the initial operation is successful.
Giersch said that these could
possibly be lost and found items,
people who need or perhaps have
a particular item for sale.
However, Giersch said, "The
committee in charge has the
responsibility to delete anything
that is not fitting. '
"Brevity is important,"
Giersch noted. "No explanations,
just a time and place, save the
long details for the newspaper."

Campus
conversations. The dialogue's
frankness shocked the Vic
torian sensitivities of the late
nineteenth century, and after
the first performance of the
play in Copenhagen, it was
banned for a while in Den
mark.
The cast features Diana
Bryant as the highborn Miss
Julie. Miss Bryant was seen
earlier this y.ear in the
Department of Theatre Arts
production of "Carousel" in
which she played Carrie
Pepperidge.
Bill McNulty, who will be
seen as Jean, the servant, was
double cast in the recent
production of "Carousel" as
both the villain and the
friendly old family doctor.
The production is under the
direction of John Sherin who
appeared in last year's
University Theatre
productions of "The Country
Wife" and "Amphitron 38."
Behrend
Welcomes
Christmas
The cold rain came tum
bling down but that did not
stop the Christmas season
from officially coming to
Behrend. Behrend's major
Christmas holiday event, the
Hanging of the Greens, was
held Monday night in the
Behrend Chapel in the Win
tergreen Gorge Cemetery.
The students, faculty, and
administrators who attended
listened to a reading of the
Christmas story by the
Behrend Readers and sang
Christmas Carols. Father
Guy Patrick presented a talk
on "A Peace to Go Home To."
Mrs. Mary Behrend was
thanked by Student Govern
ment President Al Quinlan for
giving the wreath used in the
ceremony. Even though the
weather wasn't "Christ
masy" the spirits of those
who attended was.
