rg . lion—
(Editor's Note: This is the last
in a series of articles discussing
the purpose and organization of
Panhellenic Council.)
Before applying for associate
membership in Panhellenic Coun
cil, a Local sorority must have been
; in existence nine college months
from the date when officially re
cognized by the Senate Commit
tee on Student Welfare.
• Additional stipulations require
it least ten members (eight of
whom are sophomores and jun
iors) and a scholastic average of
"1". Before Panhel will consid
er a petition, clubs must submit a
•veeport including the date of found
ing, charter members, chapter
average., rushing policy, member
ship standards, financial obliga
tions, the national sorority they
4,ope to join, and their purpose.
Associate members pay five dol
)ars yearly dues and are governed
by Council rules and regulations,
but they are denied the right to
compete with Panhellenic nation
al groups for stunt night prizes,
scholarship cup, or alumnae de
coration award. •
Upon receiving recognition by
a national sorority, a club may
apply for full membership rights
in Panhellenic Council.
If a club should "go national"
before becoming an associate
_member, it would apply for full
membership. However, such a
i'ituation is doubtful since national
sororities seldom accept groups
unaffiliated with the campus Pan-
Mel Council.

We, she Women
Tsk! Tsk! Such
Subtle Politics
Never has it been a policy of
women's organizations to cam
paign openly. Coeds are urged
to vote, yes. Coeds are urged to
weigh candidates' merits, of
course. But never before has
there been such obvious cam
paigning for candidates.
Prior to elections, precedents
are being disparaged and activi
ties comparable to leadpiping in
fraternity rushing are arising.
Emotions are being playted on.
Candidates Lind their friends give
out with propaganda lacking fac
tual foundation. And those who
think checking some name is vot
ing act on reactions arising from
these tear-jerkers.
Voting just to vote is not what
any organization wants. WRA
and WSGA want people to vote
with the idea of electing candi
dates who will make organiza
tions function best in the next
year.
To prevent another house from
"making out," some sororities
have stooped so low that they
have instructed members to vote
for unaffiliated members. Inde
pendent women, likewise, have
been employing these tactics to
insure their candidates' success.
Major office candidates are
headed for student leadership.
They will represent the College;
they are women to whom you
swear allegiance when you put
them in office. Women to whom
you will look up and by whose
leadership you are going to abide
deserve more than petty consid
eration.
Organizations need someone
who will not strive for inner com
fort. and personal satisfaction or
rely on a title, but someone in
terested in the organization and
what it can accomplish for the
common good.
All of us are interested in "v.
better Penn State." But how
many of us conscientiously take
part in its establishment? If we
weigh candidates' qualifications
and vote for those we, ourselves,
honestly decide will do the best

Postman Lonberger
"Neither snow nor rain ' nor
gloom of night shall stay these
couriers from the swift comple
tion of their appointed rounds,"
reads the postman's motto engrav
ed on the New York City Post
Office.
White-haired, amiable Harry
W. Lonberger, campus postman
for nearly 30 years, has faithfully
upheld this motto, never missing
a day's work. He has seen the
campus grow from a farmer's high
school to a thriving college. •
When asked if _ State College's
recent.,anow storm prevented him
from making his rounds, Mr. Lon
berger replied that no storm had
ever stopped him from getting the
mail through on time.
"It was less than ten years ago
that •I began using a United States
mail truck in my work," he said.
Before that, he recalled,• it was
necessary to have a relay system.
A man would be stationed at var
