The actions it took in increasing student fees 51.20 next year to buy new Blue Band uniforms and in. dividing the chapel fund between Lingnan -Uni versity and a local charity will affect a great many people. If both actions are sustained—and they prob ably, will be—the student government will have come a lon gway in a week. In that time Cabinet and Student Tribunal took up powers which previously were theirs only on paper. The Student Tribunal won its case when a fac ulty committee upheld its suspension of two stu dents from classes and from extra-curricular ac tivities for a voting fraua. The Cabinet will win its case if upheld by the Trustees. An extra assessment for Blue Band uni forms was allowed six years ago and. on that basis, .'undent leaders judge it will be -upheld now. The important difference between now and six years ago is that now Cabinet is speaking for the whole student body. Eight years ago, when Cab inet didn't exist, the student body had to speak through a general election. The only comparable test which Cabinet has had in regulation of student fees was its division last year of the 50 cent debate fee, with half .going to the Glee Club. The Trustees upheld this. Thus, the All-College student government is ex panding its powers and showing students more and more how to govern themselves. As long as the actions are considered -and prompted by a real desire to help the College, this is doing the College ana the students a real service. Why k Dating Me 1 A. lot of peopLe have been asking, “Why enforce Die Interfraternity Dating Code?” So far as Collegian knows the answer is as sim ple as this, To keep Penn State and the fraternities .in particular out .of trouble. Penn State Is one of a very few institutions at which fraternities are without house mothers and are allowed to entertain women guests throughout Die week without chaperones. This places the responsibility for enforcing Col lege standards of conduct in fraternities directly with the Interfraternity Council. Obviously, the only alternatives if fraternity enforcement fails are for the College to take over enforcement or for the privileges to be suspended altogether. Students See War Near AUSTIN, Tex.—There is a growing sentiment among American college youth that the United States will be able to stay out of the war. This significant trend in current campus thought lias been made possible through the recurring samplings of Student Opinion Surveys of Amer ica, of which The Daily Collegian is a cooperating member, along with 150 other college newspapers. Hand in hand with the opinion that it will be difficult to side step the European fight, there ap pears in the survey strong opposition to this prob lem: “Should American warships be allowed to convoy shipments of war supplies going to Eng land?” While Congress debated this and other issues, 67 per -cent of the college students were an swering “no” to the above question, presented to them by a nationwide staff of interviewers. This is the three-survey record kept by Student Opinion Surveys over a period of fourteen months: Believing we can stay out of war December 1939 December 1940 HOW, February 1941 •■Downtown Office * 119-121" South Framer St. Night Phone 4372 ...Ross B. .Lehman ‘42 i .—Gordon Coy '43 ..Robert W.
