March Of Dimes
Lacks $25 Oi Goal
The March of Dimes campaign
ir- within $25 ot the $2OO goal, with
■one day remaining to complete the
drive, according to Mildred B. Ru
bin '4O, chairman ot the campaign.
■The $175 total has been set
largely by students and town mer
chants who have contributed at
the downtown booth. A corps ol
sixty coeds has served as collectors
since the drive began January 1.
Sororities and fraternities have yet
to report their individual contribu
tions, Miss Rubin said.
The drive for State College sup
port is in conjunction with the na
tional campaign which is assisted
annually by more than 2,000 com
munity chapters. A non-profit /
membership corporation, the ‘Na
tional Foundation for Infantile
paralysis is concerned with financ
ing research and preventative
measures for combating poliomye
litis.
The money collected in counties
is divided between local hospitals
•and research projects. Only seven
per cent of the total amount raised
'has been needed for collection
■costs.

Coeds who limp about campus
in a completely muscle-bound con
dition after their weekly phys ed
period will have a chance to get
into good condition beginning Mon
day.
Trained student leaders will be
on hand in all the dorms to carry
out WRA’s new physical fitness
program which involves a fifteen
minute exercise period every
evening, Mondays, through Thurs
days. Anyone who is really inter
ested in ironing out those stubborn
kinks can certainly spare the time,
especially if it means a breathing
space between cram sessions.

prove to themselves that they can
have streamlining without tears.
Having the campus buried un
der nine inches of snow may pre
sent a few minor difficulties like
wet feet and sore derrieres, but .it
also brings up the more pleasant
