Perkins Finds
Restrictions In
20 Frciternities
Twenty of the 49 social fra
ternities on campus are 'known
to' have membership restrictions
with reference to religion or
race, or to both, according to' a
survey recently condUcted by.
Harold W. Perkins, assistant
dean of men.'
Thirty-seven fraternities re
plied to the survey questionaire.
Of this number, 20 reported that
they have no restrictions on
membership. Seventeen report
ed restrictions of some type,
while three groups which .did
not submit answers are known
to have religious or race regu
lations.
When presenting the figures to
All-College Cabinet last week,
Dean Perkins explained, "It's im
portant to keep in mind that this
discrimination is not in one di
rection. Oh- this campus we have
discrimination against Protes-
Uinta, Catholics, whites and• Ori
entals as well as against Jews
and Negroes."
Breakdown
Following is the breakdown of
figures for the 20 reporting or
known to have restrictions:
Seim restrict membership
on both race and religious
grounds.
Three have restrictions on
religious grounds only.
Ten restrict membership ac
cording
to race only. Resixic
lions
_here deal with Caucas
!EMl, 'Negroes. and Orientals.
"Progress is being made with
in the fraternities themselves
without outside pressure,", Dean
Perkins said. "I believe it is nota
ble that fifteen of the fraternities
reporting restrictions stated that

Gridders To Occupy
East Side of Field
Next football season, the "home side" of the Beaver Field
stands will be the east instead of the traditional west side.
According to a ruling by the Athletic' Advisory Board
released yesterday by Harold R. Gilbert, secretary, the Nit
tany Lion football team will be benched on the east side of
Beaver field at all 1950 home games. Seniors are already
seated on the east-side 50-yard
line, with other students ex
tending around the north-side
curve in the stands.
Mr. Gilbert explained that the
home-team switch to the east
side of the field will be a "one
year experiment."
Student Sentiment Crystallized
The board's decision to move
the home team to the east side
resulted from student-voiced de
sire early this year to be seated
on the same side with the team.
Student sentiment was crystal
lized in a proposed new seating
arrangement passed by All-Col
lege Cabinet and offered to the
Athletic Advisory Board last week
by Ted Allen, all-College presi
dent, and Charles Beatty, Athle
tic Association secretary-treasur
er, who are student members.
Ruled out by the • board, the
plan would have switched seniors
from the east-side 50-yard . line
to the west-side 50. The remain
der of the student body would
have been, seated in adjoining
sections around• the curve at the
north 'end. of the field.
-"Better Student Plan'
When the plan was devised,
Richard Wertz, seating arrange
ment committee chairman, had
said:

desire to pay for the new stands

and to raise money to guarantee
good schedules, we feel this pro
posed arrangement is what we
should seek before the Athletic
Advisory Board. We feel it would
not tax athletic finances, yet it
is a better student plan than that
exising now."
According to Allen, the plan
was not adopted because the
Board felt that "alumni support
has been built up and should be
maintained by offering as many
priority seats as possible on the
west or non-sunny side of Beaver
field."
Ridge Riley
In a letter to the board, Ridge
Riley, executive secretary of the
Alumni Association, said:
"Our present lack of indoor
seating facilities and the ruling
to eliminate any public sale of
tickets has been a very necessary
policy, but nevertheless, one that
has been embarrassing through
out the winter season and any
thing but conducive to good pub
lic alumni relations. If the mea
, sure to transfer alumni from
their traditional place in the west
stands ' is carried out, I predict
an unfavorable alumni reaction."
As an alternative, the motion
to place the Lion team on the
east side with the students, for
one year, was passed unanimously
by. the board.
