12 Men Occupy
Warnock Home
The old residence of former
Dean of Men, Arthur R. War
nock, is now being occupied by
male students, according to Rus
sell Clark, Director of Housing
at the College. This is only a
temporary arrangement, he add
ed. .
Friday, 12 students from Tri-
Dorms moved into the home, lo
cated below Pollock road, west
of Grange Hall and the Tem
porary Building. Dean Warnock
had occupied the residence from
1919 until August of this year,
following his retirement.
The students were moved due
to the elimination of six double
rooms in Watts Hall. Workers
began the construction of a new
building adjacent to the dormi
tory. This operation was planned
for the end of the first semester
in February, but the contractors,
being ahead of schedule, decided
to begin work immediately.
The old Warnock residence was
used earlier in the semester to
temporarily house freshman
coeds.
Judging Award
The highest rank ever held by
a Penn State student in inter
collegiate livestock judging was
awarded to H. Sprague Wingard
this week when he placed third
in competition at Kansas City,
Mo.
Wingard placed second in swine
judging, and fourth in horse judg
ing.

Conservation
Program Urged
College officials yesterday ask
ed student and staff .cooperation
in the conservation of heat and
electricity and of water, which is
pumped by electricity.
It was pointed out that coal has
not been received at the College
power plant since the coal strike
began more than a month ago.
The power plant now is using
coal reserves stored during the
late summer for winter use, Geo.
W. Ebert, director of the physical
plant, explained. He estimated
that the reserve on hand would
not last more than six weeks.
Suggestions for saving electri
city include reducing the number
of lights in use in corridors and
rest roms. Lights not in use
should be turned off.
Heat can be conserved by clos
ing windows at night. Steam in
buildings will be turned off at 5
p.m. each day.
The cooperation of ■ the 4,500
students living on campus can
result in a great saving of coal,
Mr. Ebert said. Deans and other
administrative officers have been
requested to enlist the coopera
tion of their staff members in the
conservation program.
