For nearly three quarters of a year, you have been lock
ed in a no-progress struggle to fund .the General Budget of
the Commonwealth. As politically aware citizens we realize
that your obligations to the various segments of the Common
wealth community are many, and often conflicting.
Those conflicts, we realize, are seldom more sharply in
evidence than during budget review time. Generally, the Leg
islature evaluates fairly the monetary needs of these state-de
pendent agencies in allocating State's limited funds.
- This •year; however, citizens concerned about appropria
tions to the state-related colleges and universities feel that
the General Assembly has failed in its financial dealings with
this important segment of the Commonwealth.
The legislature has, for instance; forced the Pennsylvania
State University to borrow money at a current daily interest
rate of $6,000 compounded daily. This outlay, mounting even
at :this time, is termed a "total loss", by President Eric A.
Walker, and will not be repaided by the Commonwealth. There
fore, this means a crippled University budget in the immed
iate future.
Steps to deal with this tightening money situation at Penn
State might conceivably include tripling student tuition, put
ting a freeze on all new programs, curtailing student services,
including the student union building and Rec Hall facilities.
This adds up to a dreary future for the University. Be
cause the Legislature is now seven months overdue in grant
ing. non-preferred funds, Penn State -and other state-related
schools will not be able - to serve the citizens - of the . Common
wealth as well as they might have had. legislators shown more
responsibility in meeting their needs.
We urge the reluctant members of the House of Repre
sentatives and the Senate to take immediate steps to pass non
preferred appropriations to head off the now developing disas
ter that threatens the state-related schools of Pennsylvania.

DEAR CHARLY
(Anyone having a question on
anything, please send your ques
tion to Charly Lee, c/o Publica
tions Office, Reed Union Build
ing, Behrend Campus.)
Dear Charly,
What does the Student Govern
ment have to say about the con
fusion that accompanied the
Spring pre-registration?
Dear Charly,
For a student government ana
lysis of th e p r e-registration
"near-riot", I contacted Doug
Brower, Chairman of the SGA,
and Student Body President, Roy
Kirkley. They were asked to give
an appraisal of the situation and
to add any other alternatives of
the system.
Mr. Brower stated, "on the
part of the administration, the
problem of this pre-registration
system was lack of forethought,
The problem of mass-registration
i
was foreseen. If some action is I
not taken by the administration
to rectify the present system, the
student government will initiate'
a commission for the purpose of!
investigation and recommenda- I
tion."
Roy Kirkley took this critical
view: "this way should be better
.because it would eliminate a lot
of late registrations and also
would limit the total confusion
time. Previously, advisors were
•late in handling students' cource
cards, plus the right amount of
course-cards weren't pulled by
registration officials because of
this. Another problem of last'

term's system was the lack of
communication between the Uni
versity and the student. A great
many students received letters
telling them to register only a
day in advance of their schedul
ed registration date. Also, the fa
cilities that were set up in Erie
Hall last term were not adequate
to handle the large volume of
students. There should have been
at least six tables set up plus
more personel.
This term's registration would
have worked perfectly if addi
tional facilities would have been
set up, if a better location would
have been chosen, if advisors
hadn't done a slip-shod job of
advising their students, if more
help would have been hired, if
the students would have regis- .
tered on time; and if' the univer
sity would have better informed
the students about the new sys
tem by letters." -
Kirkley said that the new sys
tem was supposed to avert con
fusion because the students would
be bringing their course-cards di
rectly and personally to the reg
istrar.
Any student interested in mak
ing $1.45 an hour in time of
emergency, leave your name, ad
dress, and telephone number at
the CUB office. The emergency is
a hazardous snow fall like the
one this week.
The work would consist of
shoveling snow off walks and
steps. Guys are preferred, unless
you're a girl bigger than most
guys on campus.
