IN DRESS CUSTOM

Give Tribunal Keys
Diess customs at Penn State ahull
remain as thev now are This was
Student Council's edict at its meet
ing Tuesday night
Befoie Tuesday’s meeting the gen*
oial opinion of Council membeis was
that jumois who wear blazeis should
be permitted to go without hats—
that the vveuimg of hats was not m
keeping with the wealing of blazcis
However, since only fifty class coats
were guaranteed, because of the Pas*
saic~imll strikes, sentiment changed
This fact and the thought that Penn
State customs aie declining lead to
the decision of the governing body
