He-is-charged with the job of conducting- an elec tion, to,form Penn State's wartime student government. 'This is no doubt one of the most important posts an individual on campus has faced with no past precedent or experience to guide him for many years. This is the first time since student gO'vernment was instituted that there has not been a regu larly constituted group to carry on. To date, opinion seems to be divided about the kind of job the committee is doing. Chief com plaints that have been voiced are concerned with the committee's reversal of decisions, and the lack of publicity for those decisions. Undoubtedly, the absence of a daily newsripper is a big handi cap, •but it does seem only fair to the candidates that they be ap- prised of developments as soon as possible and that no one or two be -permitted to capitallicbirtdVance information. But with the culmination of bal loting this evening, the elections committee's job ; will be finished, and the new Student officers will be ready to take their posts and carry on. We could predict the first official act, but we've 'been cautioned about giving out vital information. However, we will go this far: black 'bow ties .are not going to be a prerequisite for the well-dressed freshman' this year. Seen Around Town • Wandering ,around down in the town this past week we saw Chick Cialella, Froth editor, skipping rope on a porch • on Pugh street . on the Corner the other night Ass 14 Pa PA Imn 14 A les 14 Pa 14 14 PA trz PA 14 Kt PA 14 Men In Service— lam ite ft ft ft ft - ft ft, I'm em lee leo let lett lea les By M. .7; WINTER Without the speeches and cam pus, tours of the annual Alumni Weekends but with probably more reminiscence of days gone by are accidental meetings of boys in the service, from Alexandria to Attu. We've heard of one bunch that got ' together in Alaska. Lt. Wally Dunlap is a. company command un there, and among his charges is Charles Smith, a gradu ate in '42. Then there's Johnny Long. an ensign on a Coast Guard cutter. He runs, we hope not liter ally, into George Donovan. former Student Union boss; Billy Soose, Clem Henry, Bill Pennman, and Les Jeter when he touches one Alaskan port. Move Up 'Aft. Ruth Reid was graduates' recently from WAC Branch Num ber. One, Army Administration School, • Nacogdoches, Texas. She attended classes-in the Stephen F Austin State.

Monday two freshman girls fell in with the Army engineers on the march to classes at noon, filling in the space between the two end men. The sailors in the audience set up a howl at the movies the other night when one of the characters remarked that sailors have • a needle in their hands about half the time.. Probably the pay-off is the change in this town where the women used to be so hard to find. One of our agents is willing to swear that he personally observed this one: A couple of girls whist ling at a pair of fellows and mak ing out. This completely reverses all previous precedents in this valley. • Advance And Give Civilians Out for a stroll through the barracks section often stop to chat with the guard on duty. We learne,d this , week that conversa tion not in the line of duty is strictly forbidden for these men, and anyone who persists in this practice are only letting the sentry in for trouble. This is part of their training, and there should be no interference. Peace, it's . . . Since Collegian doesn't have a delivery system, the peace and quiet that has descended on this office is wonderful No longer are there • irate subscribers on the wire demanding immediately three weeks' back copies or all their money. We kind of miss them, but it's good, too, to know • that when the telephone -rings, the guy with the short straw is not going 'to get it in the neck. struction at Olathe, Kansas, Naval Air Station. Missing In Action The War Department has an nounced that Capt. Bob Brogan was missing in action just a week after, receiving the Air Medal from Gen. I. C. Eaker for five or more operational missions over Ger many in a Lightning P-38. - Lt. Ed Martin was killed in a plane crash in Florida June 22. He was graduated froin the College in 1942.

Acting as commandant of cadets at the Primary Pilot School, Third Army Air Forces Flying Training Detachment, at King- City, Cali fornia, Lt.

Rhoades, better known at College as "Dusty," and several other officers overseas sent a friend in New York a check for $l5O. It was to entertain their girl friends in New York, with corsages, dinner; show, and night club. They must really trust the friend. Up in Boston, Lt. Bart Hender son surprised music lovers by leading_a eimpany of 150 negroes down the aisle at the Boston Sym phony concert. Must have looked like an _invasion. .

Of course the little blue and White sign RESTRICTED MILITARY RESERVATION couldn't have had anything to do with it—we wonder? And that ain't all, he's slated for a personal interview with the FBI this week end. Hum Fishburn is also patiently waiting for the battle's end so he can gather up a few of his per sonal possessions lodged safely in the Phi Gam house—pardon us, we mean barracks. No Furlough—No Fuss Bunny Bundick, aopi prexy, has cast aside all plans for a flashy Fall wedding. We understand Tommy's lack of a furlough will necessitate a much more simpli fied version. Kappa Helen Schmelz is racking her lovely blonde brain trying to dream up some ingenious way of informing her mother that Jimmy can't get a big wedding furlough after all. Meanwhile mamma is scheming, so let's give her a hand pronto! Operator TNT tells us Anne Briel picked up a diamond rock last week from same lucky fellow —still on campus.

Yours truly wants to know if all you fellows have had the opportunity to meet a cer tain glamorous Russian transfer whose initials are .heron Michel!. Confidentially we don't know her but we thought perhaps you did, and anyway we were put up to this in the beginning. What-The Well Dressed . . . The newest cry of the Air Corps is that of "would you alter my shirt for a nominal fee?" It seems that a few of the boys have picked up blouses a few sizes "in advance" and are now pleading with a few honored home•"wreckers" to •lend a helping hand: We feel that our life will be in danger if we men tion that Shirley Fletcher is secretly yearning to do her bit for the country so we won't• say .a word, 'cause we're not quite sure anyway. We Asked For It Incidentally we have a feeling that our plea for more music a la service groups was taken a bit too heartily last week—meaning that we've definitely noticed that they're in their old 7:20 a.m. rut again. P. S. It really goes over much better with us as well as the College officials AFTER sunrise!)
