Special Rates Given
In Collegian Sales
Coming into the home stretch,
the Daily Collegian's campaign
for subscriptions reached the in
tensive stage with the announce
ment of special , rates for clubs,
fraternities, and other groups, as
well as a non-profit price for
orders for the only Penn State
student newspaper; for Penn
State men now in the service.
Student opinion appeared well
divided on All-College Cabinet's
Thursday night action cutting
down on student activities, ac
cording to an informal Daily Col
legian survey of the students af
fected.
Cabinet voted to set an 8:30
p. m. curfew for student activities
and to ban contracted decorations
and programs from big class
dances. The adopted policy also
sent recommendations to Student
Union Board to move the date of
Junior Prom to next semester and
advised WSGA Senate to make
certain revisions in coed hours.
Concerning the 8:30 p. m. cur

Clubs may now subscribe to the
Daily Collegian at the spedial
bargain rate of five subscriptions
for $7.75, a saving of one dollar
on the lot, enough to buy ten de
fense stamps.
In addition, office hours have
been announced by the circula
tion department when subscrip
tions will be taken in the busi
ness office in the baseinent of
Carnegie Hall. The circulation
departmept will be glad to con
sult with subscribers during these
hours concerning delivery prob
lems.
As pointed in yesterday's edi
torial, the Daily Collegian is
faced with . a circulation problem
not
_faced by metropolitan papers,
has a good record, considering all
the factors involved, such as al
most completely new address lists
every semester.
Aside from the regular drive
for subscriptions, a campaign is
being planned by an outside com
mittee to sponsor a fund to send
