Peel Selected
Independent
’39 Candidate
Committee Rules Out
Use Of Printed
Propaganda
By HERBERT B. CAHAN
The ' long-awaited and expected
nomination M>y the Independent party
. of Joseph A. Peel ”19 for the Senior
.xlass presidency was made at a'meet
ing Tuesday night. Peel’s clioiqc ,was
unanimous, and places him in the un
usual position as acandidatc to suc
ceed himself.
Thus Ynr only one other candidate
has been nominated to oppose Peel.
Campus lias named Stan Brown as
their nominee, whereas the Progres
sives (19119 Locust Lane) seem to be
having a little trouble getting orga
nized. If this third party gels to
gether (as they were supposed to last
night, after; the Collegian went to
press), we believe that Bill Hoot will
be named, although Johnny Patrick
is still a possibility.
.One of the cliques, had the idea of
using a printing press to print their
propaganda for the coming elections,
but this plan was 'ruled out by the
Elections committee.. The committee
stated that mimeographing wilt be
permitted. So watch out for all the
weird sehemes that have been concoct
ed by our Penn State politicos!
• A reminder from- the Election
Code:'"A candidate to be'nominated
must file a partition with the Chair
man of the Elections committee by 12
o’clock noon of Wednesday, March
23.” • That means that all petitions
must be in by noon, THIS Wednes
day. Candidates for president, vice'
president, secretary, and treasurer
each must have signatures of 50 vo
ters of their class on the petitions.
Each Student Council candidate must
submit a .petition containing-the sig
natures of ten per,cent-of the voters
of lits class in his school.. Don't-for-

A.F.L. Strike
May Hamper
Building Here
Trades Council Leader
Tells Earle Not To
Cut Relief Rolls
With the awardin;
of contracts for
the major construction work post
poned until Tuesday, March 29, a
general strike today was threatening
to add further delay lo‘ the actual
launching of the General State Au
thority’s fivc-million-dollar building
program here.
While work at the West Chester
Slate Teachers* College remained 11L
a standstill, George J. Walters, pres
ident of the Pittsburgh Building
Trades Council, an affiliate of the
American Federation of Labor, warn
ed that a.strike crippling the Author
ity’s entire 05-inillion-dollar program
would -be called unless Governor
George H. Earle rescinds a recent
order requiring that 58.2 per cent of
all workers employed on state jobs
be taken from federal relief rolls..
[ The Governor’s Mailing, Mr. Wal
lers contended, would unjustly afreet
building trades workers in this re
gion because it would practically ex
clude many unemployed men .who
have managed to keep off relief rolls
by obtaining personal loans or union
aid.
In a'statement to The Pittsburgh
Press early this week, Mr. Walters
declared: “We do not have enough
men on government relief to fill Hie
jobs reserved for them under this 58.3
per cent ruling. Since this is a flat
rule, it means that men on federal
relief rolls from other parts of the
state must be brought here before we
could help our own needy men who
have chosen to borrow rather than go
on relief.”

_ New liuildiiiK Emphasized
, l!.v Construction
Characteristics of the. proposed
Physics building will emphasize a
closer relations'll ip • between instruc
tors and'students than has ever be
fore been realized at Penn State, ac
cording to Dr. Wheeler P. Davey,
chairman of the Chemistry,and Phys
ics' Housing Committee. .
Small laboratories for snmil'clussos
and small rooms for sludent-leacher
conferences are planned. The new
building will feature sophomore labo
ratories, each built for fifteen stu
dents. Each of the three floors of
the building will contuin one or mure
conference rooms.
At present the facilities of the de
partment of physics are spread in
different campus buildings. This dif
fusion will be fully remedied by the
cupucily of the new section to be con
structed. Until Lhe addition to Pond
laboratory is completed, the Chem
istry ( department ’ will occupy the
third floor of lhe new building,
while the two basements, first, und
second floors will be the Physics de
partment proper.
_ The building, will be three stories
with basement and sub-basement, 105
by 7L feet, and a wing, 92 by 72 feet.

Famous Painter Sees Murals
In Old Main As Artist 3 s Ideal
■ "It sounds like a wonderful job, to
which I might be glad to give years
of my time if necessary," writes Hen*
ry Varnum Poor, noted muralist,
concerning the proposed murals in
Old Main.
Poor was approached informally
and unofficially to determine the ulti
tudc of a first class muralist towards
doing a fresco in Old Main. His re
ply indicates that it is a situation
that any artist would consder ideal.
“The fresco you write of for Penn
sylvania State College is about as at
tractive a work to undertake as any
painter could ask," he writes, “and I
am happy that my frescoes in Wash
ington have led you to write me about
this ■
Poor says ,that he would be very
reluctant to take the work if he were
not free enough to bring to it all his

little dulled by this arrangement.
