ruined winter fishing in the
Starbrick Eddy down-river from
the Penelec plant at Warren.
Additionally, the outflow of the
new Union City Dam in Erie
County might be good for walleye
and musky this spring. I have not
fished this new spot as yet but it
looks like it might be good.
Lastly, there will be an ice fishing

Playhouse To Audition
The big, bouncy Broadway
musical “The Roar of the
Greasepaint, The Smell of the
Crowd” will have auditions at
The Playhouse in Wesleyville at
7:30 February 6,7, and 8.
“Roar of the Greasepaint” is
the delightful musical hit that
tells the story of two men, Cocky
and Sir, playing the “Game of
Life”. The music by Bricusse and
Newly is world renowned
featuring such songs as “Who Can
I Turn To?”, “The Joker”, “On a
Wonderful Day Like Today” and
countless others. The cast calls
for two very strong male leads
(played on Broadway by Anthony
Newley and Cyril Ritchard), a
girl (soprano), a young black
man (good baritone voice) and a
large chorus of urchins. The
urchins are on stage most of the
show and must have good voices.
All ages can be used for the ur
chins, with young people
especially desirable. “Roar of the
Greasepaint” is scheduled for
eight performances at The
Playhouse March 9-18.
Rehearsals will begin shortly
Coffee House
Under Scrutiny
The dream of a permanent
coffee house at Behrend may
remain a dream indefinitely.
Plans have been proposed by
Student Union Board president,
Jay DiFrank. During the month
of December, scale plans were
presented to Dean Benjamin
Lane, Director of Student Affairs,
and to Mr. Robert Baughman,
Business Manager. As of now,
there are three major
drawbacks ' hindering the
project.
First, the presented plans,
converting the RUB television
lounge, neglects many of the
necessary building standards.
This in turn bases the anticipated
cost of the plans to be the second
drawback. Right now severe
budgeting exists.
Finally, and most important of
all, approval must come from
Committee of Arrangements.
This is a University committee
which must approve all additions.
Dean Lane feels the plans are
quite inapproporiate for
presentation to this committee.

State Legislature
Lowers Legal Age
In 1972, The Pennsylvania State
Legislature enacted* a variety of
laws lowering the legal majority
age from 21 to 18 for many pur
poses. The laws are in four
general areas, as described in the
State Bulletin; they are:
1. certain public occupations
2. criminal law
3. civil law
4. payment of local taxes
Jobs—Nineteen of the thirty
two acts give 18-21 year olds the
legal right to become policemen,
jurors, notary publics, etc. (all in
certain counties).
Criminal law—one act changes
the “victim” role age in state
felonies. There is a lot more in
volved here, but most important
are crimes with minors as ac
complices, criminal nonsupport
of minor children, and the
seduction of females. The age of
the “victim” in each case was
lowered from 21 to 18.
Civil law—seven acts make 18-
year-olds-and-over legal adults in
making a will, entering into
binding contracts, obtaining * a
marriage license, and others. The
matter of binding contracts is
lengthy, complex, and important.
Taxes —six of the new acts
provide for local taxation of 18 to
21 year olds as legal county,
townships, etc., residents. While
not all local areas are taxing,
many are. One of these is Centre
County, where University Park is
located. Again, the laws involved
are complex and important. State
College resident-students could

tax, real estate tax, capital taxes,
and many more. If it is possible to
prove non-residency, poverty,
etc., exoneration from taxation is
available. This is a law that af
fects all Behrend students who
plan to eventually transfer to
State anytime in the future.
Legally, the age of majority
still remains at 21. It is still illegal
to drink, purchase, possess,
transport, and sell “intoxicating
beverages”, as well as other
illegal things, if you are under
twenty-one. Parental consent is
still needed for a hospital
operation in some localities.
Landlords may still require a
parent to co-sign a lease. Fur
thermore, not all the in
consistencies of state and Federal
law have been cleared up.
The State Legislature has so
far dealt with only specific
problems. Since the original
thirty-two laws were signed four
more have been enacted con
cerning hunting, betting on
harness races, and state
scholarships. We can expect
other new acts dealing with
minors to be passed in the near
future. „
