CONGRATULATTONS TO COLLEGE ARTS
Having concluded a very successful movie
season which included the shcw - ng of a
number of excellent pictures, the College
Arts Society has discovered a budget
surpluso according to current rumors,
the Society is considering refunding the
money to the SGA General Fund for re—
allocation by Council.
Tn the opinion of the staff of this paper,
such a movement, if made, should be
commended by the entire college. Coming
at this particular time, it might mean
that Council will be able to put some
excellent orchestra under contract for
Convocation. The Council is considering
this move, but early reports say that
financial difficulties may hinder it.
So you see why we say that if the College
Arts Society under (resident Novarnik,
decides to aid in this manner, they
deserve the thanks of every student at
the Center.
Vie are looking forward to an excellent
Convocation program, since this ocassi on
climaxes the Highacres social season.

To The Editor:
As faculty advisor of the College Arts
Society, T. wish to correct a statement
which was made, through some puzzling
inadvertence, in the April 13th issue
of The Collegian, namely that a change
of film night was being considered: no
such change of schedule is being con—
sidered, for the quite impersonal reason
that Yonday night has been found, in our
experience to bring out the best attend—
ance and to involve the fewest conflitts
with other activities. The fact that
attendance this year has bom the fullest
and the most sustained in the last few
years tends to confirm this judgment;
cr3dit for this fact goes to the members
of the College Arts Society for their
enthusiastic initiative, to the Society's
President for her willing assumption of
responsibility, and to the faculty for
HA ZLE TON COLLEGIAN
their cooperation in reminding their
classes of coming film datE:s.
