Tuesday, December 5, 1961 Library News Hi! I'm "Oogie," the Behrend Campus Library bookworm. Chan ces are that you won't find me in the library, but I'm always around, busily chewing on the wealth of material available for you Behrend students.

Floating Campus Future Possibility The University of the Seven Seas, a new concept in education, is being readied for its first round the-world voyage, and will depart from an east coast port in October of 1962 with 500 students and 35 faculty members. The brainchild of William T. Hughes, California industrialist, the University was originally sponsored by the Rotary Club of Whittier, California. Since then it has become a not-for-profit cor poration devoted to education and chartered in the State of Cali fornia. Home of the University will be the S. S. Jerusalem, of the Zhu- Israeli Company, a recently con structed ship which is completely air-conditioned and equipped with stabilizers. Comfortable accommo dations, ample space for class rooms and study areas, plus the elimination of roll make the ship an ideal educational headquarters. The first semester trip, October 1962, will be from an east coast port - around the world to a west coast port. It will include stops in THE NITTANY CUB Orientation in engineering. 621.02-11134m6--dllechanical engi- neer's handbook. 621.384-T2TeL4--Terman; Emmons Electronic and radio engineering 4th ed. 621.882-BBlc c.1.-4—Brown and Sharpe Mfg.

Before leaving you this time, want to encourage every one of you to take advantage of the material offered in the library. It is there for your benefit. Miss Schumacher will be glad to help you find anything you need. Well ,the time has come for• me to curl up in a book. Some body let me know when it's time for the Nittany Cub again. many countries, including Liberia, Ghana, Nigeria, Union of South Africa, Mozambique, Kenya, India, Ceylon, Malaya, Formosa, Japan, Hawaii, and finally a port on the west coast of the United States. Here the students will leave the floating campus and return to their various colleges and universities throughout the world. At the end of each semester, the work of the student body will be evaluated by an impartial commit tee of educators selected from the faculty of colleges and universities throughout the United 'States and Canada. Because of the tremendous re sponse to the initial announcement, it is obvious that competition for admission to the University of the Seven Seas will be keen. Each ap plicant, therefore, will he carefully screened, and will be expected to have high academic standing, and to demonstrate seriousness of pur pose, good character, and reason ably mature conduct. Cost of the one semester trip, lasting 122 days, will range from $2,500.00 to $3,500.00, depending on the kind of accommodations se lected.

I:s=-Next issue of The Nittanv Cub. THE NITTANY CUB, being the voice of the student body, would like to take this oppor tunity to thank all who helped to make the Fall term possible. We would especially like to thank the cafeteria help for the hot meals that are daily made available for all students on the campus. Also we would like to thank the secretarial staff of the office for not sending those "pink" slips to the luckier stu dents on campus. We also want to thank the ever-merry nurse who heals all those who succeed in cutting themselves in Chem lab or in gym. Furthermore, we - would wish to thank the jani torial staff who "clean up" after us, just like Mom, huh? All in all we, the student body, wish to thank all those who made our last term enjoy able, "Pogie" faculty. Although no scholarships are available at this time, it is plan ned to establish a Scholarship Endowment so that in the future deserving and capable students may not be deprived of the oppor tunity to enroll. Briefly, the mission of the Uni versity of the Seven Seas is to pre sent an educational challenge to the -problem of man in his world using the insights of his nation and cultures. Further information and appli cation blanks may be obtained by writing to Dr. E. Ray Nichols, Jr., Executive Director, University of the Seven Seas, F. 0. Box 71, Whittier, California, Niffanies Nipped By Kent The Nittany Cubs hosted the Golden Flashers of Kent State Ashtabula Center Friday night and, although they played their best game to date, they dropped a close decision via the foul line, 54 to 48. Shooting only 41 per cent at the foul line, Behrend trailed the in vaders throughout the game but never by more than eight points. The action became especially hot and heavy in the closing minutes of the contest when the Cubs nar rowed the gap to three points, 44-47, at one time but were unable to pull even. Todd Cook shoveled in 12 of his 15 markers in the - sec ond half to help the Cubs break even at 26-all with Ashtabula in the second half. Thus it was 'Bula's six-point edge in the first half, 26-22, that told the story. Consistent Sam Heller flipped in nine points for Behrend, with George Buszinski and Bob Rausch splitting 14. Sophomore IVIo Jackson at 5 5 '11" led the victors with 15, followed by Jim Hughes' 11. A large crowd attended the game, but a majority of the fans were from Ashtabula. Behrend is still minus her cheerleaders, but they should be ready by December Bth when the Cubs travel to Dke College in Cleveland for their fifth game of the young season. Dubois Campus visited the Nittany Juniors on Saturday, December 2nd. From the onset of the game, Coach Gallagher clamped a semi freeze on the Flashers and the visitors were at a loss as to ex actly what to do about it. The Cubs looked extremely sharp Fri day night and if they continue this form throughout the remainder of the season, there are few teams that will be able to take the Cubs lightly. The starting congregation of Rausch, Cook, Woodring, Bus zinski and Heller seemed to work especially well together Friday night, passing effectively and breaking up countless plays of the opposition. Perhaps the Cubs have found themselves. From now on the games, win or lose, should be all very satisfying.
