men will agree that combined
action by a truly representative
group such as the council or a
committee appointed to make a
study of the facts concerned,
would find a much more recep
tive ear and obtain more satis
faction than three men, who seek
to gain added strength and sway
public opinion to their petty
complaints by publishing such an
article based on half-truths and
ignoring the many things which
have been done up to the riresent.
Contact Council
I take this opportunity to re
mind these men that I, too, am
in favor of further improvements
in our community and I extend
to them a personal invitation to
contact me either singly or as a
group with their complaints. In
this way, I feel that something
constructive can be accomplish
ed. I shall be glad to present
their complaints to the next reg
ular meeting of our Council or
to have them appear in person to
present their case.
This is a public reply by a
member of the present admini
stration of Windcrest. • I have
stated facts, not biased opinions,
and I stand ready to corrobor
ate all statements made above.
Ordinarily, I would not dignify
such an article as the Engineer
editorial by an official reply, but
I feel that such undue misrepre
sentation cannot be tolerated.
Finally, I would like to set an
example for these men by sign
ing this article with my name. I
do not wish to lay clown a smoke
screen behind which I can con
ceal my identity while I snipe at
various people. I have the cour
age of my convictions and confi
dence in the Council which rep
s esents the residents of Wind
crest.

d. this year's queen and maid• of
' May Day positions together, two
former May Queens have sent
their daughters to the College,
perhaps hoping to keep Penn State
May Days in the family.
The first May Queen was Mil
dred Ride, 1914, who is now Mrs.
Bruce Dunlap. Her daughter, Mary
Margaret Dunlap. was WSGA
president before her graduation
last October, but never had a
chance to repeat her mother's role
because of the suspension of May
Days during the war.
Margaret Barnard '34 was the
May Queen's freshman attendant
in 1931 and then reigned over the
ceremonies as queen in her senior
year. In 1949, when this year's
freshman maid of honor will be
eligible to be queen, another May
Queen's daughter will also be in
line for the honor. She is Dorothy
Huber, daughter of the 1923 queen,
Mary Youngs.
May Day ceremonies have been
held every'Near since. 1914 except
the two wartime periods, 1914_21
and 1941 until this year.
