State l I College, Pa., as second class matter Office: Nittany Printing and Publishing Co Building Office Hours: 5.00 to 6:45 every afternoon except Saturday Member of Intercolleginta :Newspaper Association News Editor This Issue FRIDAY, JANIIJARY 13 , 1921 CLASS FINANCES One of the most progressive pieCes of legislation in; the matter of class finances has been started this year by the action of the Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes in passing motions recommend ing that the class dues be collected at the beginning of each semes ter when fees are paid to the yreasurer of the College. According to the plan which is being advanced, the Class Fin ance Committees will make up their budget as usual with the assist ance of the Interclass Treasurer and set the amount of the class dues They will then tell the Treasurer of the College how much is due from the members of the classes 'and this amount will be col lected by the Treasurer of the College with the incidental fees at the opening of each semester. As soon as the money has been col lected, the lump sum will be turned over jto the Interclass Treasurer and from then on the class 'finances will be administered as at pre sent. Practically the only change involved in the proposed system is the collection of class dues by the Treasure' of the College instead of by the treasurers of the various classes The making of the budget and the disbursement of the funds will be handled as at present: This proposal is fast gaining the support of every thinking stu dent, as is shown by the action of the Senior, Junior and ,Soplibmore classes in endorsing the change At the present time, the class fin ances are in a bad way because many students have evaded their ob ligation of paying class dues As a result those that do pay are taxed a large sum and are compelled to shoulder the responsibility of their "slacker" classmates. , ---- " - the'Payrifent of class dues is an obligation of every student who gains the advantages of the class organization, and for the class treasurers to be compelled to beg their classmates to pay their class dues and then to receive a fifty per cent response, is a condition which no college community can allow to continue It is not fair to those that pay, in addition to crippling the class finances Some objection to the change has been raised on the. grounds that the College should have no control over the class funds - How ever under the proposed change, the College will have virtually no control of the class funds It will have no supervision of their' spending and will not. set the amount to be paid These matters will rest as at present with the proper class officers and the College will act merely as the collection agent Indeed, if the collection of the class dues does constitute an im plied supervision of class finances, we can see no objection to it, as long as the supervision covers only the collecting of the dues. The College now supervises the quality of material that is published in the college comic magazine in order to preserve the moral health of the students and to protect the good name of the college It also says when our dances must stop and has definite rules regarding chaperonage, all of which are right and proper The payment of class dues is just as much a moral obligation as the preservation of the proper atmosphere at our dances and of our publications, so why should it not be supervised' , A man who persistently refuses to recognize his responsibility to the class by refusing to pay his class dues is in just as much danger of becoming a moral laggard as the man who refuses to observe the various college regulations The proposed system has all the advantages of college super vision with none of its objections, and still retains all the advantages of absolute class control If it is put into effect, the dues per man will no doubt be greatly reduced and the classes will have sufficient money with which to carry on the class functions The instituting of this system will mean a big step forward in class affairs. The change merits the support of every student DR. WILLIAM FREAR The sudden death of Dr William Frear last Saturday, the oldest and one of Penn State's most honored faculty members, coining so shortly after the deaths of Dr Armsby and Dean Pond, was a great shock The death of this famous scientist, who was in seemingly good health and actively engaged in his most important work in es perimental agricultural chemistry, will be mourned by his many friends, in the scientific world. Dr. Frear was completing his thirty-seventh year at Penn State, having come here in 1885, and serving since 1887 as vice-director and chemist of the experiment station In his field, Dr. Frear was ranked among the leaders and the great advancement in that science made possible through his efforts will not be forgotten soon. At the time of his death, he was working on a number of very import ant research projects, among which was the development of a new strain of tobacco which promises to do much for the development of the growing of that crop. His tobacco 'work practically revolution ized the growing of that crop and in Pennsylvania. especially in Lan caster county, he was affectionately referred to as the "Father of Lady Nicotine". According to the action taken by the Student Council last Tuns day evening, a new ruling will automatically regulate the time when Freshmen will be permitted to wear toques. In the future, instead of waiting until the majority of the first year men havei had their ears bitten by the cold, and then passing legislation permitting them to don the familiar green head-gear for the remainder of the winter, the new ruling will automatically give them the privilege of wearing toques from December first until \March fifteenth of every year Action similar to this should have taken place years ago Stu dent Council is an exceptionally busy branch of the student govern- Ind board and the action taken last Tuesday makes it possible for one question to be solved automatically every year instead of demand ing time and consideration from this organization.
