January 15, 1976
Meet your team:
Larry Szosozorek, the Cubs' only senior this year, came to
Behrend from Cathedral Prep High School to major in science and
play basketball. He has racked up 483 points in his three previous
years• here, and has earned a varsity letter each year. He has
averaged 75 per cent on free throws, and has seen a lot of action this
year so far. Keep an eye on Larry to make a constant contribution to
the team during the rest of the season.
President's message - con't. from page one
the Senate has any. different in
terpretation of its policy
regarding, final examinations that
the Senate must inform me of this
no later than their March 1976
meeting. I also asked the Senate
to provide me with advice con
cerning the length of the summer
term beginning in the summer of
1976—should we continue with the
current ten weeks in the summer
or should the University move to
an eight week term as has been
recommended by many. I in
dicated to the Senate that this
was a matter of concern also to
students and I asked the Senate
therefore to take steps to involve
student opinion in the process of
providing me with - their advice
and indicated that advice on this
matter was also needed by the
March 1976 meeting of the Senate.
Budget and Tuition
The rising costs involved in
University education is of concern
to all people in the University and
is a special concern to students
insofar as the impact these have
on the level of tuition. I have
continually expressed' my -con
cern about the rising tuition at
Penn State which has resulted in
our University becoming out of
the reach of more and more low
and middle-income families. The
budget request for the next
academic year •was submitted to
the State last September and
contains a requested increase of
approximately 15 per cent or 16
million dollars. The request
reflects no tuition increase and
argues strongly for this level of
appropriation so that no increase
will be necessary.
The budget request indicates
essentially inflationary and
mandatory cost increases and the
monies necessary to handle a
small increase in student
enrollment of around 100 ad
ditional students at University
Park and approximately 700 at
the Commonwealth (.Campuses.
We will not see the proposed
budget prepared by the Governor

Alma Mater
One last item is less crucial
than housing or the calendar or
the tuition, but more symbolic.
While you were away I announced
at Commencement the adoption,
recommended by the Alumni
Association, - of a change - in the
third verse of the-Alma Mater, a
revision suggested by its author,
Fred Lewis Pattee, in 1948. He did
this in recognition of a growing
number of women in the student
body. Five years ago when I
came to Penn State we moved to
change the imposed ratio of men
and women admissions, related to
the fields of study traditionally
entered by men, and this change
occurred before such ratios
became illegal. As more and
more women have come to Penn
State and indeed are enrolling
increasingly in such fields as
engineering and agriculture, the
ratio of women to men has
become almost one to one. The
. original third verse of the Alma
Mater, written in 1901, with its
reference only to men, is no
longer exclusively pertinent and
fortunately Dr. Pattee foresaw
this circumstance and• sentiment
in writing a revision over twenty
years ago. The revised verse is :
"When we stood at childhood's
gate,
Shapeless in the hands of fate,
Thou didst mold us, dear old

Waynesburg too tough.
Cubs
By Milce Kaveney -
Business Manager
The Waynesburg Yellow
jackets came out running against
our Behrend Cubs and when they
stopped they had run the home
team off the floor by a 91-76 score
last Saturday night. _
Waynesburg College, although
displaying an effective zone press
and fast breaking at virtually
every opportunity, started out
slow as the Cubs broke out to an
early first half lead. Paced by the
inside scoring of Jon Kennedy,
who accumulated twelve points in
the first half, the Cubs main
tained a lead until the last minute
of the half. The Yellowjackets got
their running game working and
their pressure zone defense
forced a number of errant
Behrend passes, as Waynesburg
Mark Twain to
The Student Union Board is
bringing to the camptis a unique
type of entertainment, the
character portrayal of a famous
person. For Behrend audiences,
the infamous American humorist
Mark Twain will be seen as
characterized by Scott L. Brown,
a sophomore German major at
Oberlin College. Mr. Brown has
been praised for his work, as he
State, •
Dear old State."
As we begin this new term
which introduces not only a New
Year but the 200th anniversary
year of our nation's founding, we
can commit ourselves to the
fullest response to our
educational opportunities here at
Perm State. " '
Keystoners
An organizational meeting of
the Behrend Keystone society
was held Dec. 16th prior to
Christmas vacation. The purpose
of the meeting was to elect of
ficers and to discuss future ac
tivities and projects to be spon
sored by the K.S.
The newly elected executive
board consists of President -
Margaret S. Fisher, Vice-
President - Pat Ketzel, Secretary
- Sue Tilman; Treasurer - Ann
Lane, and Advisor - Mr. Grode.
The Keystone Society is
currently conducting a mem
bership drive, and anyone (male
or female) with a • cumulative
average of approximately 3.0 or
above is cordially invited to join
the organization. Meetings will be
held on alternate Tuesdays
during Winter term, during
common hour, in Nick 116.
drop one
took a slim 40-39 half time lead.
Kevin Bealko had 18 of those 40
points, most of them on the end of
a Waynesburg fast-break, which
usually caught the Cubs with just
a lone defender to stop the three
man break.
The second half was close at
first, with Behrend keeping
within four points until the ten
minute mark. The Waynesburg
press caused numerous turnovers
and their quick outlet passes led
to more easy buckets by the
visitors. The Cubs battled the
Waynesburg defense and when
they were able fo break the zone
press, it usually led to a score,
usually by the Cubs big man, Jon
Kennedy. Kennedy played an
excellent, hard-working game on
both ends of the court, although
his scoring was most evident.
lecture here
portrays Twain in the last year of
his life, when he was seventy-four
years old, requiring extensive
and meticulously applied make
up. However, the praise is also
due to Mr. Brown's mastery of
the late author's voice, man
nerisms, and story-telling style.
The portrayal has required a
large amount of research by Mr.
Brown, and he continues to study
his library of Twain biographies
to perfect his act, even though he
has been performing as Mark
Twain since he was 13 years ,old.
His research has also included
conversations with three people
who knew Twain when they were
young" children. The show to be
presented January 20 is a
re-creation of one of the late
author's humorous lectures, with
which Mr. Brown has achieved
great success in the New England
area and in Ohio, performing at
colleges, private schools and for
various clubs and social groups.
The performance will begin at 8
p.m. in the Reed Lecture Hall and
admission is free for students
with activity cards and $l.OO for
others.

The key to the Waynesburg
success in the second half was the
rebounding of Cub shots and the
quick outlet to start the fast
break.
Bealko continued his scoring
pace, being in the right place at
the most opportune moments. He
finished with 37 points on the
night, followed by teammate
Rick Trainor with 19. Jon Ken
nedy was the scoring star for the
Cubs, accounting for 29 of
Behrend's points. Rusty Cun
ningham chipped in with 9 and
Mark Chesko and Eddie Evans
had 8 each.
