Cottages As Isolation Areas TO THE EDITOR: During the recent in fluenza epidemic, many girls were seriously ill in the dormitories without adequate Medical attention. The same situation prevails again, and again nothing is being done. We feel that the present measles epidemic warrants emer gency action. Until the long promised enlarge ment of the infirmary is realized, we would like to suggest that the cottages be opened as tem porary isolation areas. Though these cottages were supposedly condemned, they have recently been used for matters of much less urgency. It is imperative .that immediate action be taken! —Sylvia Silver, Lois Pulver, Dolores Lipko witz, Marian Schrum, Sally Shapiro, Jean Mar shall, Joan Schrope, Gene Matterness, Miriam Kugelman, Sue Sell, Janet Landau, Nancy Alperin, Mary Kormanik. Ed. Note—Dr. Edgar Krug, assistant College physician, states that there was little evidence of influenza in the recent "epidemic," and that there were only a few cases of serious illness during that period. He also notes that it is quite desirable that girls in particular get German measles, the type now present on campus, since having them during pregnancy is a great cause of developmental defects in children. Protests 'lmplication' Of Article TO THE EDITOR: With reference to your editorial in the Daily Collegian on Wednesday, April 4, entitled "Students Have a Right To Know Information." As director of this project for the Penn State Christian association and the College Sportswear I want to protest the im plication of your article that there has been some collusion in an attempt to keep the stu dent body from knowing the results of this project as though we were trying to cover hidden motives and mismanagement. As you well know the financial affairs of the Penn State Christian association are an open book to all people interested and concerned. At any time contributors and members can examine the accounts of the Christian association for their own satisfaction. However, we entered this project with the agreement with the College Sportswear that the results would not be di vulged because of the private nature of the undertaking. This is common practice among businessmen and we see no reason that Mr. Baldwin should depart from his usual practice for this occasion. Further, the results of this project have been held up for announcement at the annual dinner of the association, which will be held on• April 14. In the meantime if there is any contributor who is anxious to know what the results were, Friday, April 6 SABBATH EVE SERVICES, Hillel founda tion, 8 p.m. Owen E. Landon Business Mgr. TO THE EDITOR: When I received my book refund check today I also picked up a slip of paper which summarized the non-college assessed fees deducted. According' to the sched ule of fees, two year agriculture students do not pay the student union fee of seven-fifty. This appears to be unfair to that portion of the stu dent body who were juniors when the assess ment was levied. These juniors will have been on campus the same length of time as the two year agriculture students and therefore should have been exempted also. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN.

Safety Valve . We Curse Darkness, Commanists Infiltrate TO THE EDITOR: Bravo! on your editorial of April 4. Never in all my five years on the campus have I read in your pages a remonstrance that was so eloquently put. While we curse the darkness, militant. Communists continue to 'infiltrate into these four spheres that touch the lives of all the people the world , over: (1) education; (2) government; (3) labor-manage ment; (4) writing (neWspapers, magazines, books, radio, pictures, television . ). One-might say that the most effective way to counter this movement is to enter these spheres ourselves and apply the same . . strategy. But the odds are that we could not be effective enough. Most of us pay lip ser vice.to the Christian concept and actually worship the god of ma terialism. The - newspaper reports of recent weeks on the corruption in our colleges and government attest to that. There are few•. among us who possess the Christian qualities or A 1,,, Freedom TO THE EDITOR: Your editorial remarks on Mr. Salak'.s letter in Tuesday's Daily Collegian were discussed at some length in these onarters. Of course it is evident that the Salak logic is not only tor tured and abstruse, but stretched beyond the elastic limit. It is .also evident that much of the terminology employed by "reactionaries" and "liberals," after being fingered by generations of Kallikaks; needs to be sent to the laundry. Definition is vitally necessary when communication between , individuals is desired at a high level .of abstraction. What is meant by. "loyalty," "hysteria," "the American people," "con science," 'truth," and best of all, "freedonci?" Ah, freedom. The great achievement of our "Ameri can democracy." Freedom for what? License? But in fact, is not "freedom" subject to very real and' necessary limits? Are not human beings property of a great many external actualities? FRIDAY, APRIL 0, luai By Bibler concept that can effectively over whelm the propaganda of Com munism. And to make conditions worse, our . complacency in this matter is appalling. We flatter ourselves into thinking that norr mal intelligent people, who are free to examine the facts, will always accept our way as best. —A Disgruntled Anti-Communist e Letter cut. Shall we decide that it is time to fight for "freedom?" For what freedom? How shall we fight? What actions are required? And who are the "capably informed" to advise us? Or may we make our own decisions, within limits, although bullied by professional axe-grinders and authorities with a capital "A" .. . —E. W. Hewitt • Letter cut.
