Women Are Inferior
I have long been of the opinion that females are inferior
to males. They, naturally because of their prejudice, claim
equality. Luckily, the administration has sided with me.
That is, the girls have time restrictions and the boys have
not.
Are the women concerned with this implication (though
tome it's a fact) of inferiority 1- Certainly not! Their-typi
cal comments on the situation read, "There's nothing to do
past the curfews." which shows a lack of imagination and/or
dull conformity, "If there were longer hours, I'd stay out
longer and lose sleep and abuse my lessons.", which is
demonstrative of self indulgence and immaturity. There are
many other comments which all amount to the same con
clusion—These girls are conformists, lack will power, (some
times referred to as "won't power"), have all led sheltered
lives, and are in fact INFERIOR.
- Those who should be the leaders of the opposition to
the dorm hours (as a matter of principal if not of practi
cality), the Women's Residence Council, are too concerned
with planning 1962-style jammys (complete with Bobby
Vinton and potato chips) to concern themselves with a
"mere" breach of freedom.
- If you don't want to stay out past two A.M., the curfew
is .-unnecessary. If you would like , to- stay out until three or
four once (or a hundred times), is it fair of you who don't
want new hours to keep a rule, that doesn't affect. you, which
would result in the punishment of a friend or friends ? Logi
cally, it's not fair.
IF this is the reason alone is not sufficient stimulus
for action, by you women, through the WRC, then consider
this. The University acts "en loco parentis" (in-the capacity
of. your parents). Now, how many of you have "specific"
time limits for dates at home ? Not many because your
parents have confidence in your judgment. The University
is degrading you by not showing faith in your judgment.'
They are saying "These girls are inferior emotionally and
are not to be trusted." In short, they know the score. You
are inferior, you are proving it by not putting on your guns
and fighting for your freedom. You broads are all alike.
INFERIOR.

Erie Zoo Gets
`Happy Ending'
University Park, Pa., Jan.—lt's
off to a new home where the buf
flo roam for Penn State's "Happy
Ending," only in this case he's
going to be the only one—at least
for awhile.
The in-resident bison won by
Pennsylvania Gov. Raymond P.
Shafer in a wager. with Kansas
Gov. Robert Docking on the out
come of the 1969 Orange Bowl
game is headed for the Erie zoo.
But while the scenery may be
different, the symbol he stands
for will always be the same.
For "Happy Ending" will al
ways remain Pennsylvania's big
gest (1,400 pounds) and most fit
ting testimonial to Penn State's
heart-stopping 15-14 last minute
victory over Kansas in the Orange
Bowl of Miami, New Year's night,
nearly 13 months ago.
"The - Erie zoo was one of several
zoos and individuals who had ask
ed for the buffalo when we first
got him," reports David R. Schuc
kers, director of University re
lations at Penn State.
"But Governor Shafer felt that
Penn State should have him, at
least for awhile."
And so, "Happy Ending" made
his home here for a year,. residing
at the University's . beef cattle
sheep complex where he gained
over 400 pounds end attracted
visitors by the droves, especially
on Sunday afternoons, to catch
a glimpse of Pennsylvania's new
pride and joy.
Now the time has come to move
the bison. For one thing, the
other animals got nervous in the
presence of the giant beast. For
another, he's taking up room
sorely need - for. the UniVersity's l
valuable herd, of beef 'cattle.
• "The Erie zoo vv - as• selected be
cause it was the only one which
inquired about 'Happy- - Ending"
that didn't already have a bison
among its inhabitants," explains
Schuckers. "They're making ar
rangements now to transfer , him
to the zoo in the next week or
so."
With the • transfer comes this
promise from Dr. Pa - ul Albracht,
executive director of \ the Effie
Zoological Society:
"'Happy Ending' will always
serve as a- constant reminder to
the families and children who
visit him of Penn State's fine vic
tory. And who knows. There's
even a possibility he may get a
mate someday."
student be charged and convicted
of a breach of civil law, he may
still receive disciplinary action by
the University.
You see, then, that a student
has two possible fater, and the
latter is not considered double
jeopardy under University policy.
The said University policy refers
to the section in the Senate Po
' licies and Rules for Undergrad
uate Students entitled "Conduct !
of Students." Specifically cited
sections W-11 which states that
all acts of "unethical," "immoral,"
"dihonest," or "destrhctive" be
havior are subject to disriplinary
action, W-16 which states that
"cases of alleged student miscon
duct shall _be adjudicated by a
student court."
The rules don't say that if the
civil authorities process a student
that the University trial will be
foregone. Also, the authorities re
lease the students into the cus
tody of the University only under
the assumption that the Univer
sity will try them.
To date nothing specific has
been stated in the cases of civil
authority vs University authority.
I feel that soon there will be a
long and heated debate over the

issue. The students should not
shrug ' their shoulders and say
"well this doesn't concern me so
why should I care!" Just put
yourself in - the shoes of someone
who has been involved with the
law. For example in the town of
State College if a University
student is arrested, the Univer
sity sends him a letter informing
him that • disciplinary action has
been taken by the school, with
out the victim even having a
trial.
Another example of overlap or
jurisdiction is the- W-14 section
which states that one student
can't register for another. In my
mind this is a clear case of fraud
and that Wl4 shouldn't even be
a University rule. It should be
left a civil rule.
In almost all the W rules, civil
law is written as University law.
The only reason that I - can see
why the University accepts the
responsibility for their students
is that dorm students
_are sup
posedly under the guidance of the
University. In other words, the
University is acting as parents
would act. But, is this fair to the
commuters?
