Old Favorites Leading as Returns in Best
Dressed Professor Poll Start Pouring in
As incomplete returns in the Best
Dressed Professor poll poured into the
COLLEGIAN office last night, they
seemed to indicate that Penn State's
faculty is, at least, well dressed.
• Although only a few of the local
precincts had reported, nothing was
so impressive about the returns as
the diversity of professors who have
received votes.
The conservatives, led by •L. Tre
maine Dunlap, last year's winner,
Prof. Harold L. Dickson, Dr. William
D. Butt, and Dr. Carl W. Hasek were
again slightly in advance of the lib
eral, or White Spat school. ißut thC
liberals are expected to poll a heavy
vote in the outlying districts.
A minor group, the Esquircrow, are
making some inroads into the liberal
vote. "Only a flash in the pan" was
the way the group was characterized
by sartorial leaders last night.
The Liberal Arts School seems to be
retaining first place as it' did last
year. Demi Charles W. Stoddart him

this year, Louis H. Bell, of the jour

Ag 'Hill, that region of overalls and

State • Senator, • Representative
• Discuss Appropriations
For Coming Year. •
• -If State Senator Edward - J. Thomp
son of Philipsburg can. , be accepted
as an authority, the College has been
forced to borrow $625,000 in the past
three months to meet its regular
monthly expenses. The 'Senator said
that he learned of these loans while
in a conference with College authori
ties recently.
When questioned regarding the ap
propriations which the College will
receive for the next biennium, he said
that the matter is still very uncer
tain. In regard to a new building
program, however, he said that almost
will adjust its corporate structure to
anything is possible if the College
become a public corporation and thus
become eligible for PWA grants.
When Representative Blake Shu
gart.% of Clearfield was questioned
concerning the appropriations, he pre
dicted that the amount for the next
biennium will remain approximately
the same as it has been' during the
past two years.
"While I can't speak officially, I
hardly think that the appropriation
will be cut. Support of the educa
tional institution' of the State was
one of the platforms of the Demo
cratic party in the recent campaign
and we will carry out every promise
as far as possible," he said.
