Cabinet Passes-
(Continued from rage one)
Plans for the restoration of
customs were revealed last week.
At an open meeting of Tribu
nal Tuesday, several students
voiced opposition to part or all
of the program.
Most of the speakers challenged
the "right" of upperclassmen to
"belittle" freshmen. The ma
jority, however, did feel that
some form of customs of a con
structive nature was in order.
Several additions to the cus
toms program were suggested by
members of the Cabinet and by
other students present.
"We didn't want to make the
first year of customs one that
would really be tough," Gabriel
explained in answer to the sug
gestions.
Gabriel pointed out that the
restoration of customs must be
made gradually and that future
student government groups could
take whatever action they deem
ed necessary.
A motion to permit freshman
conversation with women, pro
posed by Richard Wertz, presi
dent of Physical Education Stu
dent Council, was voted down.
• Gabriel pointed out as the aims
of customs the following:
1. a united student body.
2. school color.
.3. improved spirit as a result
of the above two.
4. an improved educational in
stitution.

with sincerity and acted well in
a role that was not too demand
ing.
Kranich Uses Dialect
Joel Kranich employed a far
cial dialect and a feigned stupid
ity to milk the most out of his
role as a western bad man, ably
assisted by Jack Krusen as a com
panion villain. Katherine Weber
was sufficiently screwball as • a
dumb brunette, and Frank Lewis
seemed natural as the heavy—but
not too heavy—villain.
The dance routines created
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
and directed by Harry Woolever
were lively and imaginatively
conceived, and the inexperience
of some of the dancers was cover
ed up well. In the finale, how
ever, there were just too many
people on the stage. The femin
ine members of his crew seemed
to get a kick out of their danc
ing work, and the weaker sex
easily outshone the males in this
division.
Woolever, Bowles Good
Woolever and Patricia Bowles
presented one of the best dances
in their "Embraceable You"
number. Joan Witherow did well
enough in her "Barbary Coast"
routine, and Michaline Clay
smith was lively in her short
Spanish dance.
The chorus generally was ade
qu'ate, but the Harmonaires
sounded a bit too much like a
barber shop quartet for a west
ern show.
The set was realistic and im
pressive, in keeping with the
western theme.
