Z-13 is that section of the Senate Policies and Rules for
Undergraduate Students, which deals with visitations in
residence hall rooms. Previous to the end of last year, all
residence halls on all campuses in the Penn State system
were subject to limited weekend visitation hours. The
Senate however, in mode with the times, felt it was time for
a change. With this change in mind for the main campus,
OSGA took a survey of the attitude of the various Com
monwealth Campuses. The result was overwhelmingly in
favor of the change. With the knowledge of the attitudes of
the Commonwealth Campuses however, the Senate
proceeded in changing Z-13 only for the main campus and
failed to delete the now infamous section E of rule Z-13.
The Senate Committee failed to give reasons for ex
cluding the Commwealth Campuses from the change.
However, it was hinted that the Senate felt the Com
monwealth Campuses were not “mature enough.”
In essence, deleting section E from Z-13 would give each
campus, as well as University Park, the right to adopt their
own visitation hours. This is the goal of OSGA. And with the
coming regional (October 23 and 24) and state (November 6
and 7) conferences, and the Senate Committee on Un
dergraduate Student Affairs (SCUSA) currently working on
the problem, they should be able to get it all together in a
short time.
Behrend Expansion

In the “For What It’s Worth”
column of the October 15 issue, a
passing reference to Orwell’s
1984 only persuaded me further
that the author had perhaps been
reading a little too much fiction.

It's nice to see that there are
first term activity cards. Only
thing is, it’s going to cost about
$l.OO a week since there are only
six weeks left. “It will pay to buy
one!!???”
Congratulations to those who
were winners in the S.G.A.
election. For those of you that
tried, but didn’t make it, it’s nice
to see that you were interested
enough to run.
Also, thanks to those who voted
in the election. To those of you
who didn’t vote, I’d rather not
comment.
After the doors were locked in
the girls dorm Saturday night,
the poor night assistant had to
keep coming to the east door just
to tell the girls that they’d have to
enter through the west doors. It
probably would have been just as
easy to have let them in.
For those of you who enjoy
those outside parties: you don’t
have to worry about the
mosquitoes eating you alive, now
all you have to worry about is
freezing.

concern of the author for “the
beauty of the surrounding
woodland,” I wonder if the
arguments presented against
Behrend expansion are
justifiable or rather are based a
bit too much on imagination. The
column began by professing a
concern for the beauty of
Behrend and the welfare of its
students -in regard to the
proposed expansion, but soon
narrowed to criticism of the
administration and faculty. I
sincerely doubt that this ex
pansion program has been in
stituted for “the fulfillment of ego
at the expense of knowledge and
the exploitation of students," nor
do I consider Behrend “staffed by
hastily gathered masses” of
inferior educators, “mediocre
professors,” or “some lame
person who mounts a pedestal to
recite irrelevant facts.” I further
question the statements that the
expansion program can be
described as “perverse means”
of “persons seeking prestige,”
“sick persons,” and “madmen.”
In the second paragraph of the
column, it is stated that students
“should be served by University
facilities and resources,” yet the
entire article contradicts this by
implying - rather, imploring -
that the expansion be stopped
“while ... in the planning stage.”
How can students be served by
the aforementioned “University
facilities and resources” if they
are non-existent?
Before condemning the ex
pansion of Behrend, I would have
each person consider all aspects
of the proposal, realistically,
logically, rationally, and as an
adult. Of course, there are many
sides to every question, and in
forming an opinion, it is most
desirable to be acquainted with
all of them.

Budget
Submitted
To S.G.A.
By Kathlene Sparks
CUB Staff Writer
On Wednesday, October 14th,
the last S.G.A. meeting before
elections was held. The agenda
covered a variety of areas,
beginning with the financial
report. Treasurer Chris Entinger
submitted a budget for the $6,800
allotment of the 1970-71 school
year. A total of eleven
organizations, excluding the
S.G.A. itself, were listed as
receiving funds. The particulars
of. student loans were next
outlined.
The “old business” considered
included a discussion on Senate
Policy and Rule P-25 which deals
with .unsatisfactory scholarship.
It was generally agreed that the
wording of the rule was too
ambiguous, and further action on
this topic was planned. All-
University Day, which will be the
Saturday before Thanksgiving,
November 21st, was also
discussed.
“New business” was the in
troduction of the Business Club,
which submitted a request for a
charter. One purpose of this club
would be to present speakers
from industry to interested
students, associate degree
programs in business.
Now that the elections have
been held, the S.G.A. should
begin working in earnest toward
its proposed goals. It should be
interesting to note its progress,
and the student body should be
ready to back its representatives.
Editor, SGA, and Students:
Some people speak of poor
losers. Well I may not be one of
them, but what I am is a poor
winner. There are a few facts
which I would like brought out
into the open concerning the
recent elections. I have heard of
and I have seen dirty campaigns.
What I speak of now is not dirty
campaigning but dirty elec
tioneering, however, this dirty
electioneering was not done by
the candidates themselves. The
SGA had set up rules for the
elections and had SGA members
at the election booth to take
ballots and supposedly see that
these rules were kept. This was
not the case in all instances,
however. There were reports of
these poll-workers, as well as
other students, seeking to con
vince students which way to vote.
And these reports can be
validated if necessary. I am not
blaming all those who were
working at the polls - those who
are guilty know who they are.
OK, now the problem exists.
There was a rule which the SGA
had established for the elections,
that of “no campaigning within 50
feet of the polls.” This rule has
been clearly violated. lam
asking if the students will allow
such a farce to go unnoticed and
also if the SGA plans to do
anything about it. ~What I am
looking for is not only an answer
to that but to whether I am or
have been validly elected.
Sincerely,
Doug Brower

Letters To The Editor
To The Editor,
In regard to last week’s “If You
Would Just Take The Time To,” I
think Mr. Eschweiler is either
very conceited or very wrong.
There is a -fantastic majority of
listeners who cannot tell you the
names, say, of the performers in
Grand Funk of Mountain, but,
who are just as capable of
analyzing a. particular group’s
music, and’ most importantly,
enjoying the sound every bit as
much as Mr. Eschweiler’s rock
HEADS.
What Eschweiler is speaking of
is simply, varying degrees of
involvement. Since he is ob
viously deeply involved in today’s
music, his article makes it sound
as if he considers himself
superior to the listener who just
doesn't have the time of doesn’t
give a shit about who the in
dividual performers in a group. I
always thought the Airplane had
a good bass, but I didn’t consider
myself a “music freak” because
I didn’t know his name was Jack
Casady.
Sincerely,
Roger P. Sager

Dear CUB
Ernest Kline, Democratic
candidate for Lieutenant
Governor of Pennsylvania, spoke
at Behrend, October 16 before a
“capacity crowd” of about 30
students in LectureJHall 117 of the
Reed Union Building.
Mr. Kline stated that he and
Milton Shapp, the Democratic
candidate for Governor, ad
vocate-the following changes: 1)
a lowering of the sales tax. 2)
incorporating of a state income
tax will be fairer to the working
class as compared to a high sales
tax. (A state income tax will be
fairer to the working class as
compared to a high sales tax.) 3)
an appoinfed committee of
women to study abortions and
advise the state government of
what action to take on abortions.
4) quicker enforcement of
pollution devices in big cor
porations. 5) more aid to higher
education in Pennsylvania. Joe
Vigorito also answered questions
from the students about pollution
control.
In closing, I’d like to say that
