CAPITOL CAMPUS READER
Vol. 7, No. 22 Capitol Campus Penn State Univers
Complaints
The management of student
sponsored keggars this year has
created an untenable situation.
Complaints have been filed with the
Student Activities Office concerning
keggars sponsored in the Student
Center and extensive damages have
been done to the center during the
keggars. We also have recieved a
number of reports of large• numbers of
under-age and non-university individ
uals being allowed entrance to the
keggars. Entrance to a keggar requires
Capitol Campus ID and proof of age.
University students and their guests
who have LCB cards are to be stamped,
which identifies as eligible to be served
alcoholic beverages. Students invited
to the keggar from other universities
must be a guest of a Penn State
University student. That means one
guest per Penn State University
student who must show proper 113 to
gain entrance to the keggar. At no time
should high school aged individuals be
found in the _ keggar or unescorted
students from the surrounding
universities. No off-campus advert
isement for keggars is allowed. This
includes posters, flyers, newspaper ads
and office service radio and television
announcements.
The President of the Student
10th Annual Bathtub Race
On Keggars
Government Association in conjunction
with the Coordinator of Student
Activities has reviewed the problems
associated with keggars. This effort to
improve the management of keggars is
a joint one, hopefully it will be -
successful.
The following are specific matters
which organizations should be aware
of:
Any damages caused during a
keggar will be charged to the
organization sponsoring the event, and
that organization will not be allowed to
sponsor future events until the club can
demonstrate an ability to manage these
events successfully.
Any under-age4lB years or young
er) individual found at a keggar will
cause the organization to lose its
privilege of sponsoring future events.
Each keggar is subject to inspection
by University officials. Upon inspec
tion by these individuals if any
underage individual is found with
alcoholic beverages or if other rules are
not being followed, the organization
will forfeit their privilege of reserving
the Student Center for future events
using alcoholic beverages and these
under-age individuals will be ejected
and the event may be terminated.

Humping Iron II rolled
across the finish line amid cheers from
a crowd of around 300 spectators in the
10th annual P.S.P.E. Bathtub Race
held on campus yesterday.
The winning team which consisted of
members of Joint Effort won the 5 foot
trophy and a keg of beer. The second
place tub was entered by second year
MET students from Berks Campus.
Third place was taken by the Central
Painting Contractors' Special, which
was also from Berks County Campus.
In fourth place was P.S.P.E. '7B and in
fifth were the XGl's.
The race began in the Student
Center parking lot and ran past the
power plant and then around the main
building. It then continued
around the Multi-purpose Building to
the finish line, which was in the
parking lot behind the Main Building.
The winning tub caught the lead in
the opening moments and held it
throughout the race but the other
teams put up a good fight for the
remaining places.

TV Auction
The hours of the Auction are 5 p.m.
to 1 a.m. Sunday through Friday, and
on Saturday from 1 p.m. until the last

May 11, 1978
During the week-long extravagan
za, which originates live from the
Hershey Community Theatre, some
2,000 items worth nearly $200,000--all
contributed by area businesses and
individuals--are presented on the air
and sold to viewers who bid from home
by dialing a toll-free telephone number.
The proceeds help support the
operation of this area's non-commer
cial, community-supported public
broadcasting stations, WITF-TV/33
and WITF-FM/89.5.
Last year's gross receipts of
$160,000 accounted for ten percent of
the stations' budget, and the goal for
this year is $175,000.
