Wilbur F. Leitzell, and Richard

Hotel.- ' . . ~
Whether, or not the ordinance
■will go into, effect is up to Leit

acting upon the bill: (1) sign.. the
ordinance thus making it a law
10-days:later;.(2) veto it before
the-next meeting of council; (3)
ignore -it completely.
If Leitzell vetoes the ordi
nance, or refuses to take any ac
tion before the next council
meeting, the bus stop can be es
tablished by a majority-plus-one
vote of council.
rrDuring the meeting: the meas
ure : was voted on twice, meeting
with a 3-3. he the first time. On
the-second vote, which was call

7 Honor System 7 For Penn State?
Other Colleges Have Succeeded
The University of Virginia, a
school of 2500 students, is one of
several institutions that has set
up and uses a system known as
the “Honor System.” ' Would it
be possible to'initiate such a
system of trust with the student
body at Penn State?
Although Penn State has a
much larger enrollment, . .and
many 'difficulties would natur
ally arise, there is some feeling
oh the campus that such-a plan
could, be- introduced here and
worked successfully.
Just what does such an honor made to some type of honor
••code include. As Lieut, P. W." court, possibly made up like the

over 1,000 miles on its way from
Ohio to the eastern seacoast

ain.
Arrangements to serve coffee
and . doughnuts at the kitchen to

Taylor and George Eckels, gen
eral manager of the western
Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, and
West Virginia divisions of the
British War Relief Society, who
is taking the kitchen on tour.

provisions to make 25 gallons of
