\fSGA Group Gives
$3OO to Red Cross;
J o'clocks to Frosh
; Group Cancels Plans
K For Mother's Weekend
When WSGA Seriate voted to
j.lve $3OO to the Red Cross last
s ight, they brought to a close a
s ieeting which had completed ac
tion on two other important cam
)ius issues, Mother’s Day weekend
and second semester freshman
hours. Mother’s Day weekend was
definitely called off for this semes
ter, and freshmen were given two
twelve o’clocks a week to replace
•f.iiei r former ten and one o’clocks
over weekends.
Prior to the discussion of their
contribution to the Red Cross, Pa
tricia Diener announced that so far
$172 had been given to the drive.
'J’he Senate then voted to give $3OO
t o the drive.
Coming to the decision that
Move-up Day would from now on
dome automatically with the be
ginning of the sophomore year,
WSGA voted to grant second se
mester freshman women two
twelve o’clocks each weekend to
replace their former ten and one
o’clocks. While permission for dat
ing during the week was not
granted, it was conceded that these
coeds may date off campus until
t:3O p.m. daily.
It was emphasized, however,
that these permissions were being
extended only because of the im
provement of freshman women’s
grades. Conduct in general has not
shown much improvement, Marion
C. Dougherty stated.
Mother’s Day weekend, previ
ously scheduled for April 17 and
18, is now definitely cancelled.

Women representing Penn State
We Dare You To Read This; Can
1800 Women Afford To Ignore It?
Aren’t you the least bit ashamed V
Doesn’t it mean anything to you to realize that 30 or 40
coeds are doing the job 1800 coeds owe to their brother,
.father or “other interest”?
your answer is undoubtedly NO. You cannot care be
cause you turn your head away too complacently. You are
satisfied with youVself.
But what right, as any American women, do yqu have
to ignore the rquests, the pleas in fact, of men in Africa, Au
stralia, the Solomons, Russia, England, and every fighting
front in the world? You’re proud of these men who are do
ing their duty, you say.
These same men need surgical dressings, desperately,
NOW. What are you saying now?
Penn State women have ONE chance to answer these
men. That opportunity to prepare surgical dressings is
given to you every Thursday night. At Temple and Cornell
Universities women prepare dressings every night of the
week—that includes Saturday. You do not even exert your
precious time enough to do it one nithgght a week.
You are out of the real swing of this war by being tucked
precious time enough to do it one night a week.
ijs
We dared you to read this. If you bothered you are
probably one of the 30 or 40 who have continued to help make
these surgical dressings. You’ll come again.
If, however, you have never come to the Home Economics
class I’oom Thursday nights at 6:30 'for two hours or even
an hour, would you try it just once? Would you answer in
Penn State’s only way the men in the services ?
They need us and we CANNOT ignore them,
