Clark '34, football manager, and Herman C. Brandt '34, president of Interfrater nity Council. Under the scheme as now worked out, all fraternities •on the campus are to be divided into three groups, A, B, and .C. Each house in group A will take a .freshman athlete and give him a job that will cnhble him to earn his board. Groups B' and C will furnish similar positions (luring the next two years. This would mean that each fraternity. would take a man once every three years. Jobs Last I Rear These positions would be furnish ed to the men for only one year. It is the belief of the committee which worked out the project that after being here for a year, the athletes, if they still needed work, would have made sufficient contacts to find it for themselves. Coach Higgins wants it clearly un derstood that these jobs are not to be "c I ock-windi ng" jobs.

"We would meet men who were promising football ma- - terial, only to have them go to some other school that could, and would, offer them full scholarships, or even salaries above their expenses." Hone Tu Influence Men To reinedy this situation somewhat, the present plan his been inaugurat ed. With the knowledge that he can promise a needy student and athlete a legitimate way to .earn his .board, Coach : Higgins feels that this, com. bined with the educational standing of Penn State, will influence many good limn towards matriculating here. Before any man is given this chance, Coach. Higgins would expect to in teryiew him personally in order to get men who : rate high scholastically' and morally as well as athletically. In the way the fraternities would' be sure to get men who would be re- 1 liable. In pointing out that this is not a departure from the non-subsidization , policy of the college, Higgins empha sized three points: first, the work will be of a legitimate nature that must satisfy the caterer 'employing the man; second, the work will last for- one year only; and third, it gives fraternities the opportunity to pledge their workers if they -so desire, _since the proper type of athlete is conSid crud good fraternity material.- - • .

Represents Many Groups Since his ordination in 1914, Rabbi Lazaron has become connected with a :urge number of religious and social service organizations.. Among those of which he is at present a member are: the National Economics League, the Baltimore District Child Study . Commission, the'Maryland League for Crippled - Children, and the League of National Association. Rabbi Lazaron has become widely known as an author, including among his published works "Side Arms," written while he was an army chap lain during the World War, "Religi ous Services for Jewish Youth," a play, "In The Shadow of the Cross," "The Consolation of Our Faith," and "Seed of Abraham."

Deans of the various schools on the campus have been requested to make a list of students who were forced to drop their work here during, the last se mester because of insufficient funds. The students win be notified of the plan. Fees Not To He Waived Although it was originally an nounced that all institutions would waive all fees for registratiom tuition, and laboratories for students working under the agreement, this proposal has been rej:eted. Undo• the new arrangement students trill - only re ceive their wages as specified by the FERA. (The pay will be from i2n to twenty dollars a month for each student, but leach college's allotment will be based ;on an average of fifteen dollars a month for each student .employed, ac cording to the regulations. The hourly rate of pay must 62 at least thirty centr with no student working more than thirty hours a week or eight hours a day. • . - :..,1\111 - ..Earn, from , $llO to' 130 Authorized' ioprovide part-lima i johs up to ten per cent of the enroll meet us of October 15, 111;33, the pro -Igram will include, work for the re minder of the semester, but. not the 1911 Summer Session. Taking an ,average, therefore, studeina receiving 'this aid will be able to (min from (sixty to eight}- dollars during this 'semester. Aside from the imperative financial need or the students, the College must allot the jobs betwoen the men and women of the institution in proportion to the enrollment. All students must possess such ability as to give assur ance that they will do high-grade work, the plan stipulates. Will Make Strict Check-up Types of work for the funds allotted cover the range of jobs usually clone in colleges by students attempting to work their way through. These jobs include clerical, library, research, and work on buildings and grounds about the institution. and in the dormitories and dining halls of the college. There is no connection between this work !and the CWA labor employment. With the College enrollment for this semester expected to drop several hundred below that of last 'semester, this plan will enable many students to finish the year, college heads be lieve. All worthy students forced to drop in the last year will be notified, but a strict check will be made upon every applicant as to his relative fi nancial status. `FROTH' FEATURES PROFESSOR'S ART Senior Ball Number Released Last Night—Special Rotogravure Page in Contents A full page, designed by a well ! known professor, to acquaint the Au ' dent body with the Penn State cam , pus, is featured in the Senior Ball number of the Penn State Froth which was released last night.
