IPA.GrE TWO What To Do With $ 9 , (a the near future All-College Cabinet will ap propriate approximately Si),000 in surplus inter tiiass. finance funds, the bulk of which has come .1 'otn redemption of bonds which were purchased during the war. The balance represents the profits Jvom all-college dances and leftover funds from class dues. The amount represents one of the largest totals that any Cabinet will have the oppor- tunily io spend. Next year, and thereafter, a return to normalcy will prevail, and the sur plus will not approach the $9,000 marie. This is good reason why the student representa tives in Cabinet should proceed with caution when they vote on the appropriation. The Student Union project looms ‘as the only logical recipient for the money. When dealing with a project costing approximately $2,000,000, a mere $9,000 is nothing more than a start. But it' repre sents a donation that carries more weight than the value of the money. Primarily, it will serve as an indication that the student body is more .concerned than ever in making the building a reality. This The Best laid Plans ... Saturday night Pi Gamma Alpha and Scarab -re vived for the first time since 1939 the traditional Beaux Arts Ball. The dance was well-planned, well-publicized, and many hours were spent on the decorations. What happened? The affair was a financial failure, needing twice as many dancers a, 3 were there to be a success. • This is not the only example of a recent dance failure.

' ’ ' ' liberty jnsnrance co./: April THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA is something that the Board of Trustees have yet to learn, or else they wouldn't have tabled the proj ect at their last meeting. Aside from giving the present Student Union fund (there have been other donations) a much needed boost, the 39,000. if earmarked for this purpose, will set a precedent for future donations from Cabinet as well as other cam . pus_ organizations. Of course, this may be achieved at the expense of culture (derived from wall paintings) but in the long run the gain will be w.ell worth any hardships endured. It would be wise for Cabinet, assuming that they donate the money to Student Union, to carefully word their message to the Board of Trustees. There have been instances when the Stu dent Union project and the Field House have been spoken of • synonymously (by the Field House boosters). It would prove disappointing to read in a future issue of the Alumni News the, 39,000 bought turkish towels, lockers, and 2,000 cakes of Lifebuoy. sran Club Snow King Ball, and the Independent Women's Association dance all lost money. Also the X-GI Club started to have free dances' for its members in Woodman Hall, but from lack of stu dent support, had to discontinue them. Maybe Penn Staters are 'tired of dancing. But if one should go to Autoport, Skylop, the Paradise Cafe or any other outside dancing places, on Friday or Saturday nights, he would find the place .packed with dancers all students. Maybe the fellows don’t have enough money to go to these student dances. The Beaux Arts Ball dance was -$2.40, the Engineer’s. Dance . $3.60, be sides being a corsageless formal featuring Claude Thornhill, the I.M.A. Ball was free to all members and only $1.20, for non-members, and the other , dances were of similar prices. . It might, be a lot of money to spend on a date one night, but every weekend the movies,- and downtown eatjng places' are jammed. Combining these two (because a couple rarely goes to the movies that they, don’t get anything to eat also) and comparing them with the dance costs, the saving is very slight if at all. The only other reasons for not attending these functions are the date situation or that the .fellow can't dance. If he can’t dance, it's a shame, but ihe best way to learn (if h e so de sires) is to get a girl to leach -him—and many are willing, The date situation is bad, but I know quite a few girls who sit home bn Friday and Saturday nights. - We always hear the same old cry—Why stay in State College over the weekend, there’s nothing to do! There is enough to do if students would only take advantage of the opportunities afforded. Dance committees and organizations must get plenty tired of putting on failures, which aren’t their fault,, but that‘of an .apathetic student body. If you’re one of those people who can’t find a thing to do on a Friday or Saturday night, look around, there will probably be a student dance somewhere, crying for support. House Bill No. 562-F.E.P.C. TO THE EDITOR: During the past week, petitions have beeri circulating about the campus and town calling for the. endorsement of a bill that will put into effect a Fair Employment Practice Act in Pennsylvania similar to the ones now working successfully in both New York and Massachusetts. This bill, House Bill 562, is now in the House Labor Committee:of the Pennsylvariia Legislature together with twq other weaker, arid: less ,; effective' bills. ' ' j 1 House Bill 562 declares ;that the right to obtain employment without'discrimination be- : cause of rage,. creed, color, national , origin or, ancestry Is" hereby, recogmzedrandfdeciarpd ip * Be ah injherent i right" asf encompassed "by. the; Constitution of - the Commonwealth' of Periri- Sylvatjia. 1 It prohibits such discrimination by all employers (except religious, fraternal, charitable; or sectariari and'those; haying less than six employees), by em ployment - and labor unions. It creates a commission which, through conciliation or hear ings followed by:“cease and desist” orders, will eliminate arid prohibit discriminatory employment practices. ~ The orders are reviewable by the courts and failure, to obey final order is punishable by fine or imprisonment. The commission is also required, in cooperation with the Department of Public Educa tion, to establish a wide educational program in the schools and throughout the state, to oust preju dice and foster good will.
