The Rustygate Affair
Highacres Scandal
Runs Rampant
In the last few weeks there
have been many repercussions to
the recent developments in the
Watergate Affair. One of the
most obscure incidents related
to this affair has recently come
to light. A number of reliale
sources have informed the
COLLEGIAN of a scandal which
has developed in the last few
weeks here at Highacres. The
scandal, referred to as the
Rusygate Affair, (due to the first
discovery of a bugging device at
the tennis court gate where
faculty members frequently
congregate,) involves many
administration officials, faculty
members, and students.
As far as we have been able to
determine, the first series of
events was apparently linked to
the alleged desire of ahigh
administrative official to obtain
the secret formula for the
Vanilla Fudge Brownies (alias
the Blonde Brownies) served in
the SUB' Cafeteria. This closely
guarded secret has been a source
of much controversy in the
Annual Spring Concert Held
On June 2, Mr. Jumpeter
closed his second successful
season as director of the
Highacres Chorus with the
Second Annual Spring Concert.
Since the Chorus has become an
active 'Organization on campus,
sevend new groups have been
added, including the Krazee
Eights, who specialize in comic
relief; the Penn State Chorale
Singers, who devote their efforts
to Renaissance and other
classical forms of music; and,
most recently, the Gospel
Ensemble, whose chief concern
is adding variety to the
repertoire in the form of modern
and traditional Gospel music.
The program for the concert
began with Mozart's TE DEUM,
and continued with three

domestic life of this high ranking
official. It has been suggested in
certain social circles frequented
by this official's wife that she
would soon delight their
gastronomic systems with a new
culinary treat.
Apparently, this high official
directed one of his immediate
underlings to procure this
formula from the Cafeteria
recipe files. In turn this official
directed his assistant to handle
the investigation. While it has
been noted that Mr. Fogelson
has come out rather strenuously
in the past against the Blonde
Brownies served in the Cafeteria,
it has been further noted that in
the last two months, Mr.
Fogelson has been consuming an
increasing quantity of said
brownies. The investigating
committee, headed by Dr.
Harold Aurand, followed the
trail of Blonde Brownie Crumbs
from Fogelson's office directly
tohis immediate superior, Dean
McCallus.

Chorale Singers; this was
followed by Bobrowitz's
CREATION, with Yvonne Fuller
and Margaret Luca as soloists.
The Krazee Eights, and their
female counterparts, the
Alphabet Girls, provided some
fun after intermission. The
remainder of the evening was
devoted to more contemporary
selections ranging from
"Morning Has Broken" to a bit
of the glory that was grease; the
program ended with a
perkirmance of the Up the
Stairs' featuring the full Chorus.
Accompanists were Tina
David and Emil Kittan, piano
and organ; John Nicolardi,
drums; and Elaine Dettore, bass,

HAZLETON, PA. 18201
Kostos To Retire
After twenty-eight years with
the Hazleton branch of the
Pennsylvania State University,
Frank C. Kostos is leaving.
Kostos joined the Hazleton
Campus in 1945 as an instructor
in engineering. Two years later,
he was moved up to
administrative assistant, and five
years later became
administrative head when Merle
E. Campbell transferred to the
main campus in charge of
Division of Center
Administration. Kostos was
administrative head of the local
campus (a term no longer in use)
until 1959 when Eric A. Walker,
President of the Pennsylvania
State University appointed him
as director of the Hazleton
Campus.
_ After receiving his master of
science degrees in 1939 from
Bucknell University, where he
also earned his bachelor of
science degree in civil
engineering, Kostos worked in
industry before entering the
teaching field. He taught at Mt.
Carmel High School,
Wilmington, Delaware, Brown
Vocational High School and
Valley Forge Military Academy
before coming to Penn State.
In his twenty-eight years here
at the Hazleton Campus, Mr.
Kostos has seen a lot of the
development of this campus. He
has seen the faculty and
administration grow, he has seen
the physical expansion of the
Campus with the addition of the
new Classroom Building, the
Student Union Building, and the
new Library, and_ the housing
facilities of the dormitory and
the Food Service Building, but
perhaps most important' of all,
he has seen the expansion and
development of the student
body—which now includes both
Associate and Baccalaureate
Degree students.
COLLEGIAN NAMES
EDITOR
John Busher, a third term
freshman, was recently elected
Editor-in-Chief of The Highacres
Col The Highacres Collegian. In
looking to the future of the
Collegian, plans are being made
to publish on a regular basis next
year.
The Collegian staff looks to
the incoming freshmen for
support in acquiring new
members for its staff, and also
plans to fill vacancies on the
Boaerd of Directors from
freshmen ranks next year.
possible especially the present
staff members.
Mr. Kostos has seen this
growth and development and he
has been influential in making it
possible. It would seem that he
is leaving a Campus which has
changed much over the years,
but one on which he has left a
lasting mark.

Dorm selects resident assistants
At the beginning of Winter _
Term, 20 students met in the
dorm for the purpose of
selecting 6 resident assistants for
next year. These students were
given an agenda of the selection
process and weekly meetings
were begun by Mr. Fogelson.
The candidates were
interviewed by 3 RA's, two of
their own sex and one from the
opposite sex. The candidates
also had separate interviews with
Mr. Fogelson and Mrs. Lewis,
dorm hostess. By doing this the
candidates began to realize what
the job of resident assistant
enttails. The job takes in
administrative and social duties.
However, the most important is
that of a counselor to other
persons on the floor.
