Wumke Is Not Alone
Editor
Hi there, gang. What's shakin'? How
about the leaves on the trees? They sure
are beautiful this time of year in
south-central Pennsylvania. In fact, I
guess they are all over the Common
wealth. Oh, yeah. It's WUMKE here at
your service once again. (at least)
It sure was great to receive a letter
from the top men on campus last issue. I
appreciate it, Provost Gross. And thank
you too, Dean Gross. (Are youse guys
brothers or something?) As many of you
know by now, I soak up this kind of
attention like the boron rods on TMI
used to soak up neutrons. It made the
little day of this little man a little
brighter.
The Penn State Night at Thirsty's
Tavern a few weeks back was a tre
mendous success. My usually reliable
sources tell me it was packed all night.
Yes, I did make a "brief" appearance.
They were Fruit-of-the-Looms, I believe.
(Get it? Briefs--Fruit of the Looms?) Just
remember that if we Capitolites treat
the local beer-tenders right, they'll treat
us right.
Too bad about Anwar, huh? How
uncivilized can a country get is what I'd
like to know. Assassinating its own Roberta Bronson, President
president--how barbaric! Pretty heady stuff, huh? But that's Steve King, Vice-President

five. The World Series will be a repeat of
the 1974 show, but with opposite results:
the Dodgers in seven games.
On a more serious level, this letter
will mark the first appearance of the
writings of Progenitor, a person who
was well loved by many, many people
at Capitol. So without further ado, a
direct quote from Progenitor:
"Let us be proud of who we are and
who we are not. Together, our strengths
and weaknesses can and will be used for
the betterment of all. Yea, we shall
forge a renewed patriotism and spirit in
our country that shall be heard around
the world. The sun shall never set on the
land that is effected by our efforts.
I believe in the United States of
America and its people who I proudly
serve. Amen.
The world has enough great names
and great leaders who have satisfied
their own passions. Let us not lead, but
let us serve. And let us serve faithfully,
but in peace. For is it not in giving that
we receive, in losing what we cannot
keep that we gain that which we will
never lose, in listening and comforting
that we hear and strengthen, and in
serving that we lead?"

I would like to remind everyone that
they are welcome to attend the SGA
meetings--they are open to everyone.
However, there is one stipulation.
According to the SGA Constitution
passed last spring (Article VI, Section 8,
Floor Privileges), there, will be a sepa
rate section on the agenda for introduc
tion of visitors by sponsoring senators or
officers if a visitor wishes to speak on an
item that is contained on that meeting's
agenda. If a visitor would like to be put
on the agenda, the visitor must request
floor privileges one week prior to the
meeting at which the respective visitor
is to speak. The request will be granted
with two-thirds majority of the Senate.
The following week, the visitor will be
put on the agenda and introduced to the
SGA by a sponsoring officer or senator.
It is a good idea to get to know your
senators, since they can see to it that you
are permitted to speak at the SGA
meetings. The following people are sen
atores and officers of the Student
Government Association:
a.m. to 8:30 p.m.
to 10:00 p.m.
