Editor's Mail call
Blue Band Blues
TO THE EDITOR: In Thursday's edition of your
paper an editorial was printed concerning the Blue
Band and a trip to Temple.
You msi e many statements, the first of
which was that the men in the band didn't
want to go to Philadelphia. Just because the
band members chose the Navy trip over the
Temple one is not sufficient evidence to con
clude that they don't want to make the Temple
trip. When the vote, that you mentioned in your
article, was taken the members of the band
had to choose between Navy or Temple—they
were told they couldn't make both trips. THAT
IS WHY THEY CHOSE NAVY! They would
still like to go to Philadelphia if they could
make both trips.
Your second agrument concerned dance band
jobs—ONLY ONE DANCE BAND HAS A JOB
THAT WEEKEND.
As for the strike at the Bellevue Stratford Hotel
—haven't you heard? Philadelphia has more than
one hotel! By the way wasn't there a strike in Pitts
burgh last year?
Under authorization of the Dean of Men,
Blue Band members have an opportunity to
make up any work missed while on trips. Foot
ball players miss classes also, but they make up
their work.
So, Mr. Editor, if you are going to give reasons
for the absence of the Blue Band at the Temple
game PLEASE make them sensible and justified
ones. DON'T TELL THE STUDENT BODY THAT
THE BAND MEMBERS DON'T WANT TO MAKE
THE TRIP TO PHILADELPHIA!
• Editor's note: The information that was
printed in the editorial Mr. Grimsley refers to
was obtained from the director of the Blue
Band, Prof. Hummel Fishburn, an►: was not
just idle editorial comment.

No Rent Decrease
For Circle Dorms
The Federal Public Housing
Authority will not permit a de
crease in rent for Pollock Circle
dormitories, said Harold Loman,
Director of Dormitories and Din
ing Commons, due to the rise in
food prices since last May.
Mr. Loman made this statement
to a group representing the Pol
lock Circle Council when they
questioned him Friday concern
ing the seemingly high living cost
of the Circle.
At the request of the Circle
Council, Mr. Loman and Frank
Morris, assistant to the Treasurer,
had lunch in the Circle dining
common that day "to see for
themselves" the conditions which
are the source of so many com
plaints.
Since last year's receipts from
Pollock Circle residents were
greater than the expenses, Mr.
Loman added, he attempted to
have the room rent lowered.
However, the F.P.H.A., which
controls similar units throughout
the nation, would not okay the
decrease.
He went on to say that the Col
lege sends all money in excess of
expenditures to the government,
and cannot buy new articles for
the dormitories except to replace
worn out items, he said.
Acting as hosts for Messrs.
Loman and Morris were James
MacCallum, Council president;
Donald Mitchell, _vice-president;
Leo Shellchock, chairman of the
health and sanitation committee;
Thomas Reissmann, resident
counselor; and Edward Wal
cavage.
