Renewed NYA Program
To Benefit 215 Students
Approximately 275 Penn State
students will benefit by the re
newal of the NYA program on
campus this Fall. Suspended since
last Spring because no Federal
funds were forthcoming, the pro
gram will get under way about
2 or 3 weeks after the beginning
of the semester.
In the meantime, application
blanks are available at the NYA
Office, 308 Old Main. '
Stanley B. Maddox, the Col
lege's NYA supervisor, pointed out
last night that application blanks
are not available to freshman and
transfers until after they have
been accepted by the office of the
Registrar.
Originally the local program
took care of well over 500 stu-'
dents, but when Washington cut
the allocation this Summer to five
million dollars to take care of
"needy college and graduate stu
dents in American Colleges and
Universities," the Penn State ap
propriation likewise took a severe
drop.

PSCA Surveys
Available Rooms
In Housing Guide
Lists Addresses
Rentals, Capacities
Mimeographed lists of down
town rooms that will be available
to freshman men on September 7
may be secured then from the
PSCA Office, 304 Old Main. The
lists are being compiled from
questionnaires sent to local land
ladies early this week.
Information on the lists includes
the owner's name and address,
whether the room is a single or a
double, and the rental price.
"In no way are the rooms listed
on a basis of desirability," stated
representatives of the Student
Housing Board, who are cooper
ating with the PSCA in the project.
A PSCA spokesman • advised
that the freshmen use the lists as
"shopping-around guides." He ad
vises that the freshman look
around until they find a room that
suits them before making any
agreements, and that 'they do it
as soon after their arrival on
campus as possible.
"It is advisable," stated Fred E.
Clever '44, SHB Chairman, "that
students who plan to join a fra
ternity refrain from signing long
term room contracts, or enter into
verbal agreements with the land
ladies."
"There are sufficient temporary
rooming facilities," he pointed out,
"to take care of those who plan
to move into fraternity houses dur
ing or after rushing season."

counselors chairman, announced
yesterday.
In undertaking to help orientate
the Fall Freshman class, the larg
est to enter Penn State, it vas
necessary to increase the number
of counselors.
"However," Yeager added, "a
few training meetings were held
to acquaint counselors with the
problems they may expect to en
counter in their meetings with
the freshmen."
During Freshman Week, sev
eral meetings have been schedul
ed for the Frosh to meet with
upperclass representatives of the
school in which they have en
rolled.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Lion Shrine Gets
Finishing Touches
As Grid Season Nears
With work nearly completed on
the Lion Shrine will move• to
its permanent base, about two
yards behind the spot where it is
being carved, within a few days
after the beginning of next semes
ter.
There will be
.a slight bit of
work on the lion after it has been
moved to its base, but that will
all be finished before the Alumni
Homecoming and the Bucknell
football game on October 3 when
it will be dedicated.
Started near the end of May,
the work will have taken, when
it is finished, less than four
months, about two months short
of the time Mr. Warneke said
would be necessary for its com
pletion. He has done only the
finishing work, the "roughing
out"' having been done by Joseph
Garatti.
The gift was presented to the
College by the Class of 1940 as
Will be inscribed across the top
of the base stone. It has not yet
been decided what will be done
with the model which was used
throughout the carving and which
sat in the Old Main second floor
lobby, all last Winter.
Mr. Warneke said yesterday he
was pleased with the interest the
students have taken in the carv
ing of their shrine and especially
their taking pictures of it to have
after their graduation. He stated
that they have had a chance to
see something very few people
get a chance to in seeing all the
stages -and techniques of so large
a carving job.
