1: 1 A‘IE TWO
Report Violations
Action is being taken on the question of OPA
in State College. Two district representatives
were in town Tintrsday bringing a supply of
furies for violation reports.
That shows someone is interested in this
town at last. But it's still up to you, Mr. and
')Miss Joseph University, to carry the campaign
-through to successful conclusion. Violators tan
r.oot be prosecuted. •if no charge is ever brought
against them. The merits to do this is now in
your possession.
When you feel you're being overcharged, all
you have to do is get a receipt from the store. Then
drop; over to Old Main or the Collegian office and
obtain a report blank. You won't have to appear
•
In any court or before any board. The OPA of
fi::e 'will do alt investigating and judging. .
And if . you feel your rent is too high you can
report offenses of that nature on these same
furies. Every one counts; every one is another
siroke for the good of the whole campus.
It's your fight as much as Collegian's.. Get
in it now and revolt all offenses! C.J.R.
Time for Action
it has been nearly a month now since All-
College Cabinet was first presented with a report
from the Liberal Arts student planning commit
tc_•e. The committee chairman has not only ex
lilained the report, but has made complete copies
.of the report available to. them. But still Cabinet
z-baz; taken no action on the report, even though
there are only two more school weeks in this se-.
arnester.
Cabinet members seem to think that the type
of liberal, well-integrated education propoSed in
-the report is an entirely new idea. Actually, it
$:; not. Progressive universities' like •Chicago,
-IVlintiesota, and Harvard now have similar pro
grams in operation.
Approval of this report by Cabinet would not
•Itoean its irnmediate adoPtion; 'the plan is more
complex than that. But if Cabinet did approve
the report, it would make a stepping-stone from
- which the committee. could approach the admin
•-4:;tration. The original idea for reorganizing the
•-Schobl. of Arts came from - All-College Cabinet;
• , »ow:it is'up to them to show that they, represent
•
ling the student body, are still interested in de
veloping the - academic, as well as the social, pro-
Tryarri at the College.•

A Oaris artd. Bitter Look
For three long and loathsome months now
I have been writing this tripe from the distorted
viewpoint of a chronic and cankerous cynic. But
at heart I am a good lad, a spreader of sweetness
and light as well as manure. I look at the bright
er side of life.
Naturally, it's all the editor's• fault that I'm
bitter. She drove me to it with her damning
words, "Go thou and write a satiric column!"
EVer since, I have been doing her bidding.
And it has been hard to do- owing to my intrinsic
gentle disposition. Friday evening she sent me ov
er to pan the Treble Singers. I went, but I did
not return to heckle.
I have yet to praise anyone in this column. So
stand well clear, because that's just what's hap
pening now. I should be allowed to go Overboard
for something at least once, shouldn't I?
Those girls were good, no matter what my
learned critical colleagues George, Ferdinand, and
the damn office cat may think.
Piano duets by Miss Pittman and Mr. Woods
also pulled a long round of applause. "La Cucara
cha" and "Powerhouse" had the audience sitting.
on the edge of its chair• and tapping its collective
feet.
Soloist Ann Reese. singing in "Sylvelin" did
a fine job. You could put the ‘Vhole outfit On the
air (I'd s uggest something larger than WiMAJ) and
never be able to tell them from professionals.,
And one more number that went 'well with
the listners was "Gershwin Medley." The blend
ing Of voices was excellent. Hells bells! I'd bet
ter stop right here; I'm beginning to sound like
Martin Lennig, our famous guest theatre Critic.
Anyway, you can teltfrom this that I didn't
write nasty things about Treble Singers as was
expected. But this is the next to last colurrin, and
I can 'revolt with impunity. • . -
So I'll throw one more bouquet, this time to
Director Guy Woods, - 4or a concert well staged,
well rehearsed; and ably - directed: The College
can be proud 'of, the whole organization.

Letter To Editor
Dear Editor:
This is to,, inform those who
have any interest in "a better
Penn State," Penn State will
never be - any better than the
people who call themselves Penn
Staters. Those who hold offices
in ,our. All-College Cabinet are
specifically referred to in this
letter. It should interest the stu
dents on the .campus and espe
ciaty-the students of the Schciol
or Agriculture, to know that their
All~lCollege•Cabinet" Hs' nothing
Mot than' a clique of petty; jtiV
enile , politicians who are im
pressed with their own • impOrt
ance. Or have they known that
before?
The Ag School holds each year.
an lAV.Home...Ec - student-faculty
picnic. It - •;provides recreation,
entertainment and 'refreshments
without •anY cost to hundreds of
students. But this year a ticket
must be purchased by those at
tending, becattse All-College
Cabinet would• 'not ,appropriate
$75 for expenses but they could
appropriaite the tidy sum' of $4OO
to the chess team to make their
trip. This is certainly rotten, it
stinks! Let's get on the ball,
