The plan was that each student was to-paint the Opal Kadett in an original and creative man ner and the finished product was to be voted on by the spectators. The "Paint-In" took place at the Erie Central Mall. Partscipating colleges included Behrend, Villa, Gannon, and Mercyhurst. The winning team will take tart in a nationwide "Paint-In" with t9OOO as the stakes (*2500 cash-2500 scholar.)

A modern, two-story structure, it will be located directly in front of the Otto F. Behrend Science Building; and exits will 1:c provided on both floors--this can be done because the build ing is being constructed on a slope. Approximate cost of the project is estimated at $950,000 1 which will be financed by the General State Authority funds. It will house two biology labs, three drafty n•' roomn, ird seven cl.9ssrnoms. Discussing further changes in the appearance of the campus, aside from the dormitories behind the RUB, Dean Lane added that plans have been finalized to improve the entrance of the school, but exactly when this will be done depends upon how soon the Township decides on plans to widen Station Road.— Eventually, however, the school name will be engraved on a fieldstone, and planters will be placed around it with floodlights illum inating the stone. The formal dedication of the J. Elmer Reed Union Building will take place on May 3, 1968. The ceremony will be held in front of the arches ; barring inclement weather; in which case, it will take place in Erie Hall. Open house will be held between 2:30 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. when visitors may tour the building accompanied by student guides. The official program will begin at 4:00 p.m. with Dr. Eric Walker, President of the Penn State University, at the main speaker. Ron Batchelor, president of the SGA, will speak as a representative of the students, while the faculty will be repre sented by Mr. Patterson. The ceremony will conclude around S:OC p.m. The swimming pool will most likely not be opened for this Spring term, Dean Lane said in answer to several queries concerning rumors which had spread throughout the campus. The problem arises from an inferior filtration system which does not meet present Public Health requirements. Before our pool can meet these requirements, sev eral inlets must be added to the system. The University is doing everything in their power to get this taken care of and there is a remote chance that this can be finished before the end of school, but for all intents and purposes, Behrend students should not count on using the pool for the Spring term. The rehrend Campus Sports Car Club will hold its fourth gymkhana of the year this Sunday,., April 21. Registration starts at 11:00 e.m. in the parking lot in front of Erie Hall. Registration for members is $2.00 and for non-members $2.50. REED DEDICATION SET POOL CLOSED o)'_l•Lig_ TANS
