Responsible for such social func tions as the annual “Awards Presen tation Banquet’’ and the “Years End Picnic”, the service fraternity has been nationally acclaimed for the ser vices it has contributed to our fellow man. On the floor of our Nation’s Con gress only a short year ago, Senator Cranston recognized the efforts of the XGI Committee, which works in conjunction with H.A.C.C., in assist ing ex-servicemen with college pro cedures and benefits offered by the Veterans Administration. Very close to the XGI Committee is the Scholastic Committee which consists of brothers who are willing to offer their free time to members who fall into scholastic turmoil. Operation Santa Claus, conducted annually, is an attempt to procure normally hard-to-obtain items for our combat servicemen in Viet Nam. Another activity of the XGI in volved three-year-old Wayne Grang er of Middletown who received 20 pints of blood from the Capitol Cam pus GI/Highspire Blood Blank for his hemophiliac condition.

Paranoia! by Skip Lewis “Who protects us?” “Who has jurisdiction in Meade Heights?” “How much happy B.S. must I take from the Globe Security Guards?” These and questions like these have come in the wake of vehicle code violations, tickets, and disturbing the peace warnings. None of this took place last year, or if it did, not so blatantly. But even in Utopia, rules for conduct must be adhered to and someone or somebody must be dele- gated to keep peace and provide safe ty. Who are these someones? Glad you asked. Capitol Campus is state owned property and is subject to all per tinent Penna, state laws, which of course means that the state Police have authority over one and all at this campus. Although they work in conjunction with Lower Swatara, it would be unwise to believe they can not arrest nor ticket you for viola tions of the law. So keep off the responsible for the protection of pro “grass”. perty and traffic safety; they are Capitol Campus is located within the fifteen square miles that com prise Lower Swatara Township, and must abide by the laws that govern this community. The Lower Swatara Police Department, for better or worse, has the responsibility for our protection and safety. That they have met the challenge with fore thought has been evident judging by past events and by the attitude taken by Chief of Police James M. Shannon. In an interview with Chief Shan non, I became aware that he believes that community projects has its own social norms and that a police force should acknowledge this projection and take into consideration in ad ministering: to the letter of the law. That is why the “Midnight Alley Cats” are allowed to parade without a permit in Meade Heights at two thirty in the morning. Watch out if you try it in another Lower Swa tara Community! Although small, Capitol Campus does have its own security force un der the direction of Mr. Paul. As Director of Security, Mr. Paul is in terested in making sure that what buildings stand today will be stand ing tomorrow. Mr. Paul and his hired guards of Globe Security, are Mrs. W. E.

All other violations such as disturbing the peace or hav ing guns on campus we state and local matters and must be handled by duly appointed peace officers. It is Mr. Paul’s hope that all matters in volving students be handled within the Capitol Campus family. Mr. Paul has worked in behalf of the student body with law enforcement agencies in the past and we have no informa tion that he plans to reverse himself in the future. Our student government is by no means dormant to this problem of security and safety. Proposals such as the elimination of Globe Security guards with the compensatory “beef ing up” of the permanent security force and the use of student Mar shalls have come forth in answer to this problem. Both proposals de serve discussions of their merits and drawbacks keeping in mind that stu dents are not here to be peace of ficers nor do they have power to be. So is the story of security and safety at Capitol Campus. . . Sleep well. Big Brother is watching.
