We know that the formulat ing of a dating code is the hardest task placed before any student government body. We admit that the entire student body be satisfied with ony fOrmulated code. But, we Call upon the Interfraternity Council to be frank with its fraternities, to admit a mis take in policY, and to rectify tha_t•rnistake by re vising the present dating code: This can be the only answer to hundreds of irate fraternity men who feel as if a blind were pulled over Interim ternity Council: meetings. • ' We believe that the IFC comMittree whiCh prO iiOsed and- Pushed the code wiz undoubtedly ;iincere in its efforts. ilOwdver, through non-Con sultation with the dean of men's office, it did not 4 - • realize where their powers on dting - began• and _ ended.' - •" -••- ' • Here is a: cbmpariScir.

This did not include" chaperoned parties, Which are _held dir ectly resliOnsible to the Here Senate CoMmittee on Student Welfare. - Here the College gov erns and holds the power. In its wake, the IFC began to revise its mixed drinking . legislation. Its code had been a fore runner of . the All-Cabinet's action, and had been proven as a fair, just, and comprehensible code. However, the IFC went out of its field of jur :'tsdiction when it made up its present statute. The Senate Committee on Student Welfare is the all powerful "conscience" of the student body. It controls, regulates, and sanctions student be havior and action. The Senate committee has complete control of TEC conduct and behavior. But, in the interest of student self-government; it allotted the priv ilege of governing interfraternity behavior 'to the IFC. It retained one privilege. This was the subject of chaperoned College functions. "Un der the direct approval of either Dean Ray or Dean Warnock's offices chaperons are in charge of the College or fraternity functions t and IFC or All-College Cabinet jurisdiction does not operate. The IFC did not recognize this ruling in formu lating its code. ThuS. it included chaperoned parties and violations Occurring during these par ties as part of the IFC jurisdiction, instead of the rightful original jurisdiction falling upon the Senate ComMittee of Student Welfare. When chaperons are present at a fraternity :function, the Power of dealing with violations :Calls into the hands of the Senate committee, and the burden of blame is put, not upon the IFC, but 01)011 the individual trouble-maker, or individual ,fraternity, as the committee sees fit. What then is.the next step for the IFC? To us. it seems clear. The IFC. in its dating code, ,3113u1d not overstep its bounds. It should deal only with cases involving mixed drinking with 'unchaperoned dates awl unchaperoned coeds. It. was the intention and purpose of the Senate Com mittee on Student Welfare to act as the judicial body in all cases affecting chaperoned. College The revision of the IFC dating code, then, is leave chaperoning rights to the Senate commit 'tee and those whica belong to the IFC to the IFC dating code.

The school 'offers - instruction in all sub jects related to the production and proeeSsing of minerals. In addition . to resident instruction an extensive program of research is constantly ex panding- and improving the utilization of the mineral resources of the Commonwealth. Ex tension instruction by which technical training is carried to thousands of employees of the mineral industries of the state while on the job is suc cessful in increasing the productive capacity and earning power of many workers. ThiS is the only school in the United States in which all of these functions are combined under one admin istration. Pennsylvania A Leader Pennsylvania, a state with 45,000 square miles and 10 millions of people, is the leading mineral producer and processor of the United States., This position has been established and maintained from a very early dale in the development of the country. As a result Pennsylvania has al ways been the great pioneer in mineral tech nology. Many methods and processes related to the production .and processing of minerals were invented -and carried to successful completion fOr _the .first_time in hittory in Penntylvalnia. This pioneer Position is particularly conspicuous' With regard to coati petieleum, iron, and . ifs' Many al loys. The growth of the School of Mineral hi thistrieS hat paralleled this industrial develop ment. Gracitiaies now fill important technical • and executive positions in the -state's lnineral in dustries. • - The Value of the raw mineral production for a single year has exceeded- one billion •dhllars in a number of years: P'reSeire value iS . abbizf eci per cent of this figure. At least a, thirctof the residenta of the state are.. directly. dependent upon the mineral industries of the state. Many of the remaining two-thirds are indirectly dePerident. As a result the maintenance of the mineral in dustries in a prosperous condition is of funda mental impoctanCe to an exceptionally high per centage of the population. Conservation More Urgent The production of minerals in Pennsylvania has a history extending over 200 years.• The in evitable result is that Pennsylvania has exhaust ed much of the highest grade and most easily re covered material. Social and economic problems related to depletion and conservation - are there fore of growing importance. Conservation should be considered as intelligent utilization rather than miserly hoarding. We are going to use our min eral resources but we should use them in the most efficient manner possible and with a mea sure of regard for the coming generations. Ex perience has shoWn that conservation is served best by the constant develoPMent of new pro cesses in the research laboratory whereby lower grade materials May be employed. The mineral industries of Pennsylvania are in an advanced state of Maturity. The development and appli cation of new technologies in the future is there fore sure to be more and more important. The complexity of our mineral industries is such that raw materials from many sources scat tered over the globe are necessary for their main tenance. We are far from self-sufficient. The steel mills of eastern Pennsylvania depend upon the iron ores of Chile. We particularly need the manganese, tin, aluminum, mercury, chromium, tungsten, vanadium, and industrial diamonds which our southern neighbors can supply. Pres ent trends now in evid , .nce indicate that This is a condition which will increase in the future. We therefore have a very definite and even a selfish interest in Hemisphere solidarity. We must co operate in the distribution of minerals, raw ma terials, and processed goods for the benefit of all. As an indication of 11:e trend of thought with regard to the importance of the mineral indus tries in modern industry, it is of great interest that the section on education recommended that instruction in mineralogy and geology be in cluded in the field of s.. , continry education.
