•Your Athletic Fee
!Now that the College is following a limited
aports program for the Summer, many students
, have asked what is being done with the money
collected from Athletic fees. They contend that
the College should not charge the same fee as it
did when basketball, football, and other major
apcirts were in full swing.
First of all, it must be made perfectly clear that
the College is not trying to get "something for
nothing:" The usual athletic fee is being wisely
appropriated to the extent that part of the money
is being reserved to act as a "cushion" during the
coming Fall and Winter seasons.
Campus enrollment is bound to drop sharply
Lor the next Winter Semester; and as the students
•-go, so goes the money. Yet the majority of peo
_ ple remaining on campus will expect a Winter
athletic program that will compare with the one
beak in the good old days of 1942.
By paying the athletic fee this Summer, stu
dents are not only supporting the present sports
card but are also insuring the financial security
Of the coming seasons which would have certain
ly been, hampered by the fee ceucreases resulting
from the impending enrollment drop.
Cards On The Table
On entering its fourth year as one of the lead
ing student government organizations among Am
erican colleges and universities, Penn State's
College Cabinet has found its powers contested
and now faces what some people .may term a
".showdown."
The Penn State Christian Association will not
comply- with one clause in the student govern
ment constitution.
Cabinet replies to the CA: "Either comply with
the constitution, or drop out of Cabinet."
But the Q 4 declares that it is unconstitutional
for Cabinet to take this action; and furthermore
the CA has asked a College Administrative body
(Senate Committee on Student Welfare) to in
vestigate the matter, and to determine which
party is in the right. •
We're Staying Up-
The Daily 'Collegian will publish as usual to
night. We feel that in carrying on as usual we
ore doing what the authorities want during this
tiilackout test. To live and to work under black
out conditions is no easy task. That is why we
should take every opportunity to learn how to .do
These things in case the necessity does arise.
As Dean Warnock and the Council on Adminis
lration pointed out, bhe students are expected to
carry on as usual, to prepare their work for the
next day in as nearly a normal manner as possible.
'then, if the worst should come, and it were neces
sary to black out this region for several days, at
10,St We should have some preparation.
r So tonight, instead of going out to see the town
in the dark, The Daily Collegian staff will stick
to the typewriters behind the blackout shades in
Carnegie Hall and the print shop downtown.
'Where the blackout presents a new problem, we
Piave tried to solve it. Since there will be no tele
ythone service after 9 p. m., we'll carry the copy
and messages by foot.

Big things have been going on in 'Oregon and
the Suez.
And at Penn State there has been the usual
quibbling. Tribunal has been "making exam
ples" of certain freshmen. Opposing factions have
been making remarks about Henry Varnum Poor.
Passionate words have been said about and by the
PSCA. Fraternities and sororities have • been
scheduling the usual coffee hours. And the days
have been alternately wet and dry. c,
Big things have been going on in Oregon and
the Suez
It's easy to forget about these `ibig things" when
you're walking through the cathedral of trees on
the campus mall, when you're reading the names
around the edge of the Sparks Building and won
dering who put them there, when you're sitting in
the sun, or when you're cutting a'class just for the
hell of it.
But while big things are going on in Oregon and
the Suez, we're wondering why coeds have for
gotten to register for defense courses. And we're
wondering again why proceeds from the Victory
Weekend can't be put toward engineering scholar
ships. We're wondering what has happened to
Mortar Board's sale of Defense Stamps. We're
wondering why so much time is being wasted
on the Penn State campus.
To the coeds we say: Ease off on rushing, take
some defense courses, stop fooling around with
your fingernails.
To Tribunal we say: Make your "examples" buy
Defense Stamps instead of wasting perfectly good
paper on sandwich signs.
To whoever is balking Victory Weekend plans:
Stop balking 'em. We probably know just who
you are, but we're afraid to mention your names
because the editor might have a heat stroke if he
gets another letter. Whatever your. reasons for
balking 'these plans, they couldn't 'be nearly so
big and important as things going on in Oregon
and the Suez.
To Mortar Board: What are you doing for de
fense this year, kids?,
To all students: For Pete's sake, stop cutting
classes
