TEE MARK OF 1-1 BEHREND bTUDENT During that horrible week of Customs, the Behrend "Hello Spirit" was stressed.- This "Hello Spirit is the one distinguishing mark of a student from Behrend. Friends at University Park have re ported to the Nittany Cub that we should stress the "Hello Spirit." They say that out of the masses of students at the main campus almost every Behrend student will go completely out of his way to say hello to another Behrend student. This is a result of the "Hello Spirit" being stressed at the Behrend Campus, a spirit that is not forgotten once you have left the Campus itself. Going to - aehrend establishes a concrete com mon ground with everybody else who went to Behrend. The Hub (the central University Park student union building) is frequently the scene of Behrend re unions, an example of the never dying spirit that the typical Behrend student possesses. The Freshmen are still to new to completely understand this feeling the Sophomores call the Behrend spirit, but by Spring Term we guarantee this spirit will be an inseparable part of every freshman, as it is now a part of every sophomore. Start developing the spirit now. The next time you pass another student or faculty member say "hello"--it's not much, but meaning behind the "Hello Spirit" is fulfilling and lasting. HARRY BRITTON SYMBOL OF FREEDOM Harry Britton, the lone striker against the General Electric Company, is truely an outstand ing example of the freedom we possess as Americans. Mr. Britton was fighting for a just cause, and although it is quite a complicated situation any body who takes time to review his problem will come to this conclusion. "Good of Harry" as he is sometimes referred to by Erieites, has recently been committed to Warren State Mental Hospital for . an examination. Whether or not Harry is mentally ill is not the point. The fact that Britton had enough "nerve" to stand up and defy a company as powerful and as large as the G.E. for what he thought was • right l ,is.the reason we must givheglyi,clue . .: Credit. Hairy Britton has shown the ioidetliiied conservative. "stuffed shirt" Erieites that this is truely America and we can stand up and fight for what we know is right. In view of democrati' principals and legiti mate representation, I would like to propose to the Student Affairs Committee that their next order of business should be to draft a constitution, let the students radify it (if acceptable), and then have a popular election of SGA members. The Homecoming Weekend has been foremost in everybody's schedules, and rightly so. But the issue cannot drift. We must have a constitution, and we must have more than a temporary. board elected SGA. The committee should see the need to take immediate action following the homepaming, and settle this problem as soon as possible. The Nittany Cub hopes that the chosen committee can and will accept this responsibility.of writing a new constitution the Behrend Campus SGA. Let's see some positive results!! SGA ELECTIONS BJTTERS CONCJ!IRT Last Sunday the Behrend Campus pr presented the Harold Betters Quartet the enjoyment of the city of Erie and fac ulty. Behrend student must have thought Harold had the "raague," .as there were coniparatively very few B.C. students in the crowd. A unanimous opinion rmong the few who were brave enough to face "getting the plaguw" was that Betters was fantastic. The next time the Behrend Campus proudly presents something let's be proud...of our attendance! MAGIC MARVEL 'WADES BX.
