(Continued from*Page One) ing this problem were also passed by Cabinet, , The first recommen dation stated that Student Tribu nal shall prosecute all violations of the above action and of IFC code violations. The second recommendation de clares that WSGA shall revise Section 3, Page 48 of the 1941 Handbook, so that it will include a • rule against drinking in sur rounding communities or road houses as requested by Dean Charlotte E. Ray. _ Cabinet explained that its jur isdiction does not cover mixed drinking involving coeds if the chaperones in charge are approv ed by the deans of• men and wo men. _This is the procedure ready followed by fraternities during Houseparty, and will in volve no .change in both present and past regulations. Under the new amendment, four organizations—lFC, IMA, PSCA, and Panhel will be required to 'submit their records to the Asso ciated Student Activities Office. At present, these four organiza tions are the only ones that do not have their accounts audited in this way. 'This office will act in no way to control student activity funds, but will' only serve as a central clearing • house i " according to 'Ross B. Lehman' '42, chairman of the complittee which proposed the amendment. The amendment also defines a student activity •as one whose members are students and whose funds are derived all or in part from student sources. Thefinal provision of the amendment states that. all members of Cabinet shall represent student activities. The amendment will go into effect next year. 'Shuffle Rhythm' Traced: To Bach Featuring a distinctive "shuffle rhythm" that may be traced to several concluding measures in one of Bach's classical violin •con certos, Jan Savitt and his Top Hatters will officially open week end celebrations when they swing into their theme, "It's 'a Wonder ful World" at Soph Hop F 1 i day ight. Tickets for the dance will go on sale at the Athletic Association office in Old Main at 8 o'clotA'Fri day morning, according• to Jack J. Bard " and J. Kemp Noble '44, dance co-chairmen. Admis sion will be $3.85 per couple. Reports that Bon Bon, noted Negro singirig personality, may be with the Savitt troupe once 'again could not be confirmed as The Daily Collegian went to press this morning. According to Noble, a telegram was wired to the' Music Corporation of AMerica yesterday to verify,the rumor, but as yet no answer has been received. . Bon - Bon was-with the Top Hat ters when theY played in• Rec Hall for Senior Ball in February, 1949. Since then, the Negro artist has left the Savitt outfit; but may be with the band again when it re turns to Rec Hall to play for the sophomore class dance from ..9 p. m. to 2 a. m. Friday. In accordance with Houseparty standards, dress for the dance will be formal. This marks the first year that Sooh Hop and Fall Houseparty have been combined on the same weekend. This ac tion resulted •through the deci sion of the Student Union Board, which combined the two social events so that the financial success of the dance may be bettei• in sured. The board also hoped that the joint weekend plan would lessen the strain on fraternity social budgets. However; many frater nities are 'holding closed formal dances Friday night in accordance with the usual houseparty proce dure of past `years. Read The Collegian Classifieds .Letters In The Editor's lliiilbox Committee Comments On Chapel Fund Issue To the Editor: We wish to present the follow ing statement regarding the his tory and recent activity of the Penn State in China Committee. We think this statement. will serve to throw light on some .of the issues which have been under discussion. At a mass meeting of the stud end body held in 1912 it was de cided • that the voluntary collec. 7 tions from the then compulsory chapel attendance should be.. sent to Lingnan University in China to aid in bringing American .culz.• ture and science as well as prac tical Christianity to the Chine - se, In accordance with this aim the Penn 'Btate in China Committee and the members of the commit tee were , chosen-in such a way. as to represent' students; faculty, •and administration. The present chair.: man .of the , Pend State, in China Comniittee;- Dean , Emeritus R. L, Watts, is alsb a menlber - of the Board of American Trustees of Lingnan University. The chapel contributions, now made by townspeople and faculty as, well as students, are sent by the Penn State in China Committee to the American Trustees of Ling nan University and are adminis tered by them: Modernizing South China through scientific research, campus instruction, and mass edu cation has been the means effect ively. used by this outstanding University to meet the pressing needs of the Chinese people. Ever since the inception or the Penn State in China idea, the chapel collection has in fact been used to cover a part of the ex penses and salary of; "Daddy" Groff, Penn State, 'O7. As a teach er, research worker,. and unoffi cial diplomat from America, "Daddy" Groff has labored con stantly- to' bring about a better understanding between China and America. Not only has his work in plant introduction and horti culture been of inestimable value to the Chinese peasantry by in- GRAND OPENING WEDNESDAY ROVEMBIIR 5, 1941 0 - FRUITS' •VEGETABLES * FLOWERS SCOTT MARKETS Corners Allen-Beaver Sts.

The Penn State in China Corn mittee has never conceived - :of Grofrs work as the ultimate enc.( of its activity, but has concerned itself also with the broader prOb lera of relationships between the student bOdies of the two schools. To this end an arrangement wrw made' some 'years ago for a system of exchange scholarships bet Ween Penn State and Lingnan. • Up • . to the present, nine Penn` State stud ents• have studied at Lingtian and font: Lingnan students have. corn° here. ' blot only Lingnan students, however, but other Chinese as well' have participated in this project of mutual friendship. The Penn State in China Room on obr own campus was completely fur nished by the students and faculty of Lingnan together with the mer chants of the city of Canton as: gesture of appreciation of our , ef forts. • Penn State in China is a going Concern. There is on the Lingtian campus a fine house called Penn State Lodge 'which was built With money contributed by, our faculty and students. Further, the area of South' China shows many evi deuces of the improvements 'in horticulture introduced by "Dad dy" Groff. The need today greater than ever before and' it is the considered opinion of this cim mittee that any withdrawal "of Penn State support from Lingnan would be a blow many times more serious than can be measured "in terms of money. Sincerely, The Penn State in China Committee.. (Editor's Note ... Because of the nature of this letter and the stand The Daily Collegian has taken in. the chapel fund controversy, the letter calls for an answer. Thai; answer will 'be given tomorro•o/ when the Collegian will briefly re view the situation.) • Phone 3151
