Alumni, Trustees Plan SU Fund Contribution Plans for alumni contribution to the Student Union fund are being studied and some sort of contribution will be made, President Eisenhower has announced. The President said approval for proposed alumni participation in the Student Union fund was given last Wednesday at a brief meeting of the executive committee of the Alumni association. The - Board of Trustees executive com mittee also has agreed to go along with the plan, he said. Action followed a move in which All-College cabinet in s t r u c t e d All-College President Robert Davis to broach the ques tion of alumni participation to the executive committee. Alumni participation in the Student Union fund program will be the first step toward setting up a general alumni fund campaign for various purposes, President Eisenhower said. Fund Campaign Committee meetings were held during the inauguration rush and there was no time to work out de tails, according to the President, who said the fund campaign would be developed by a joint alumni-trustee committee which will be in charge of the general fund-raising program. H. Ridge Riley, executive-sec retary of the Alumni association, said yesterday that support of the Student Union would be included in the first project of the alumni fund drive, but that nothing could be done at the moment to set such a drive in motion. Additional funds would be needed to set up a continuing fund campaign, he said. Proposal for alumni participa tion was presented by three cab inet members at the last Cabinet Imeeting in an effort to find addi tional methods of financing the Student Union building. The Stu dent Union committee was in structed last spring to investiglte further financing methods. College Budget President Eisenhower also re ported that preliminary work on the proposed College budget, to be presented to the state General Assembly, had been completed, but that he did not know how soon it could be made public. Concert Drive Reaches Goal Memberships in the Commun ity drive were all sold out by noon last Saturday, Wilmer E. Kenworthy, chairman of the board, announced yesterday. An overwhelming number of memberships were sold to factilty members and towns people as compared to the ones sold to stu dents, according to Kenworthy. The drive was climaxed last Thursday with the announce ment that the 95-piece Indiana polis Symphony Orchestra was signed to appear on Feb. 9. Fa bian Sevitzky will be the con ductor. The other three concerts that will be presented this year will be discussed and possibly chosen this afternoon by a committee comprised of student and faculty leaders. The number of memberships sold was determined by the seat ing capacity of Schwab auditor ium, Kenworthy said. A series ticket entitles the holder to any seat in the auditorium and tick ets for individual performances will not be sold. The Community Concert series replaces the old Artists' course which was discontinued last year. The series operates on a no-pro fit-no-loss basis by selling mem berships then booking concerts on the amount raised. The series is international in scope and has over 1000 Ameri can and Canadian communities listed as members. Headquarters are located in New York City and Chicago. Papers Praise New President Compliments and praise for the new College President, Dr. Mil ton S. Eisenhower, made the edi torial pages of many Pennsyl vania newspapers over the week end, following President Eisen hower's inauguration last week. The Philadelphia Inquirer not ed that President Eisenhower "typifies the new sort of leader— the man who combines scholarly attainments with insight into world problems—to whom one great institution of learning after another is turning." The editorial went on to com ment on the President's achieve ments in government, and stated, "These qualifications that angur well for the development of the Pennsylvania State College." The ' Harrisbur Patriot noted, "Penn State has meant a great deal to the youth of the state through the years . . . so it is proper that Penn State acquires the best possible leadership avail able in the nation. The leadership is personified in Dr. Eisenhower." Said the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, "The new President does not intend the institution to rest on either past or present achieve men. Education in his view has never caught up with the times. If there are some who lack the mental capacity for college work there are many more who are capable and denied the oppor tunity." Froth Meeting Promotion manager, William Brady, asks all candidates for the Penn State Froth promotion staff to report for a meeting in 100 negie at 7 p.m. tonight. PRICE FIVE CENTS Dilworth Hits Republicans HARRISBURG Richardson Dilworth, Democratic nominee for Governor, charged in a cam paign speech Friday that the Republican party had made Penn State a "political football." Successive Republican admin istrations have placed the insti tution under political domination, he said. This action has retarded the College from developing as one of the greatest farm schools in the country, Dilworth continu ed. Trustees of , the College are appointed . by the Governor. "I am hopeful that under Penn State's new president, Dr. Milton Eisenhower, it can wipe out this political domination and set up the greatest farm school in the country," Dilworth added. He maintained that the College had to take a back seat to Cor nell university and lowa State university as a result of the Re publican party's mainpulations.
