made at Room 304, Old Main, ac

dividual gifts and several other
campus groups have thus far con
tributed.
• Little more than half of the
$l,OOO goal set up by the College
has been reached. Numerous other
universities over the country are
now conducting drives.

Winter will work with Riley in

RepCrting the result of discus
sions with town movie managers,
Smith revealed the following
points concerning the selection of
shows: (1) Although the town
managers, controlled by the Pitts
burg branch of Warner Brothers,
may select their own reels, they
must make this selection in blocks
of five pictures. Hence one good
picture may be accompanied by
four not so good; (2) Westerns
are booked at the State until
September 11. Beginning Septem
ber 6 the house will initiate three
day runs on reels;• (3) the Nit
tany theater can net be reopened
until the advent of cooler weath-•
er since it has no air condition
ing. (4) weekends will continue
to be. devoted to Westerns for
the benefit' of town children. •
