Where Are the Planes
White the Nittany-Independents are out trying,
find the lost planks of their last platform it
)".ight be well to turn the spotlight on what. con
; c.itutes the opposition.
So, if Mr. Matternas would wipe that smile off
face (we wouldn't think of just putting one
) Arty on the spot) we'd like to ask him a few
.1 uestions.
Mr. Matternas, of course, now has his finger in
the State pie. The Campus-Key party, which took
beating at the polls last October, took the usual
), , ,se-clive defeated parties take around here.
So what do they do? They change the name
in the Spring--a convenient matter if they
don't run out of names first.
• But the purpose of this edit is not to berate a
).arty for changing its name—what we're curious
);13 know is, will changing a name include changing
the stripes?
We received a note from the State party today
which says, "State has tried to introduce a feasible
.:beck and balance representative system into the

))osed of the various committee chairmen and five
cTected members . . . under this system no one

)..).eeting."
What we'd like to ask the State party is.
"Who can assure the student voters (as well
as the representatives) that the steering com
mittee wont or can't be packed for their own
selfish desires?"
But getting back to Mr. Matternas and the old

Penn State one of the leading educational institu
tions in the country . . . by fostering improved
educational standards through higher admission
requirements, more effective exams and integrated
course structures . . ." What happened?
- You also said that you would "Include avia
lion as a credit course which would reflect
Penn State's reputation as a pioneer in mod
ern education." Where are the planes?
You were also going to further organize and
implant new spirit in the fight for a Student Union.
The prize plank; Mr. Matternas, is your state
ment, "Create and instill a unified Penn State
spirit . . . through low-Cost All-College activities."
Admittedly you could skip out of most of these
charges with the glib answer that your party lost
last year but you can't skip out on that last platik.
Why? Well, aren't you a co-chairman of Senior
Ball, Mr. M, and didn't you come to a recent cab
inet meeting to plead with them to allow you to
increase the amount of Money your group could
spend in its search for a "big-name" band for
Senior Ball?
Granted. you haveh't asked to increase the
price of tickets but we hahlly consider $4.00
as low-Cost All-College hetivities.
In closing this article we'd like to get one
point across—while We are tearing apart the
platforms of both parties it is with one pur
pose in mind—to force them to present short,
workable platforms in which the student body
can have faith. We want the students to vote:
we think that they will turn out if they are
convinced of the sincerity of the parties.

Foster . emphasized his point that a sophomore
would 'be best qualified as delegate, since a junior
or a senior would be leaving the College soon,
while a sophomore would have two more years in
which to enlighten the student body about the
merits of a Student Union.
Fritz Lloyd, IFC representative to Cabinet,
felt that a junior should be serif since be would
be "better known" than a sophomore. and his
words would thus carr' more weight with the
student body. Since the conventiOn is held an;

Other Cabinet members felt the delegate should
be someone who has been active in the work of
the Student Union Committee, and suggested Fos
ter or Fulmer.
The Collegian editor stated that Gesszier
had already done much for the Student Union
cause by writing a series of articles which
have appeared in Collegian. He added that
Geskier would continue to write in Collegian
about Student Union, whether he attended-the
convesitiot► or not
SPme Cabinet members felt that .Fulmer had
done more for the Student Union cause. After more
disCussion on the relative merits of 'Fulmer and
Lessner as delegates, Russell Smiley suggested
that both be sent to the convention—one •as official
representatiVe 'and the other as obserVer.
However, his motion was withdraWn because it
was felt Cabinet could not afford to send two dele
gates. It was suggested that the decision be post
poned until a later meeting of Cabinet, but since
Cabinet would not meet again before the delegates
must leave, the decision had to be made.
Therefore, to end the discussion, Fulmer was ac
cepted as the College's delegate.
