Tuesday, March 8; 1938 COMPENSATIONS—A GOOD THING Profit from Senior Ball was $2,004.60! ♦flu* senior class president and the dance committee chairman each received $127,150! These compensations are made known to the general public its part of the financial report. These figures ap- pear in black and while. There is no doubt as to how much money went into tite pockets of the class president and committee chairman. This was not always true. Not so long ago these two men could have “knocked down” as much of the $2,004.66 as they could have gotten away with. Cases were known in the past when the committee’chairman and the class president would “make” enough io buy a new car, or a share in some business enterprise. With the passing of the “shake down” system . a few years ago, and the introduction of publicized compen- sations for dance committee chairmen and class officers, a forward step in honest student government was no doubt made. This is one of the many reforms in inter class finances that have been advocated by Neil M. Fleming, graduate advisor of the Interclass Finance Fleming and others responsible for the gradual re forms being made in the handling of student funds should be commended for bringing out into the open amounts paid to student leaders, thus assuring honest operation of extra-curricula" activities and big dances. The Collegian will always hack to the limit and pub- licize any movement that is for the benefit of the stu- dent body, and that leads to the elimination of any semblance of graft, us does the regulation of oompen- lations for student leaders.—ll.B.C. W. S. CL A. ELECTIONS Democracy will prevail tonight when \\\ S. C. A. will allow any woman student to add to the official nominat- ing slaLc- of the organization. Women can use this privilege with discretion, or they can abuse it with ridiculous Damnations. Fraternity women can nominate every active-in their bouses if they allow their partisanship to interfere with rational think’ng. At last year’s mass meeting such nominations were rampant, and only wasted time and provided those who recognized the various fraternity pins with a laugh. The fraternity women are not the only offenders, however, since many nominations were made last year by non-fraternity women who wanted merely to_see their friends in office. If affiliations are. disregarded as the sole factor of qualification for election, a great many mistakes may be eliminated. There are more worthy evaluations for nomination* that will make for a more efficient and in- telligent meeting. Number of activities is no complete criterion for leaders of women’s student government. Activities that indicate leadership, character, and ability are those that should be considered. One activity that combines these elements is highly superior to five that do not. It is not only the general woman student body that should be unbiased and non-partisan, in its selection of officers. Also, the nominating committee should add to Its good record, already established by the slate it has presented, with the cutting out of those names which do not meet with the necessary qualifications.—U B.

Survey J Shows How They Are Spent •Just what become!* of the $lO.OO individual class dues that is paid over a period of four years here at Penn State? Students, not ‘knowing.'the vast and involved amount of work necessary to operate student government, are apt to think the amount paid for class dues exorbitant. .But, an investiga tion into the administration and operation of interchiss filnanees proves the contrary to he true. ; In an attempt to clear up the above question, that 'hns no doubt per plexcd students from time to time,' the Collegian will attempt to analyze just what-your $lO.OO is used for. First of nil. $lO.OO is set aside for LaVie. Inasmuch as this Penn State yearbook is annually'} rated among the best college annuals in the coun try, *nud because of its consistent wide and thorough coverage, this price is not excessive. The remaining $O.OO is divided ap-. proximately as follows over four years: numeral sweaters—sl.Bl; per manent class treasury—sl.6:); Blue Band—sl.4:); Student Union—sl.oB; clerical and accounting work—B7 cents; Student Council and Tribunal !—OO cents; Blue Key—2B cents; re ; funds to class officers —14 cents; I printing, stamps, and postage—ll icents; Junior officers’ gifts (in fresh man year)—lo cents; class day—9 !cents; auditing—o cents; and miscel laneous expenditures—(77 cents.
