West Dorm Council
Half-Cocked Again
Once again, it appears that the West dorm
council has gone off half-cocked.
AT ITS MEETING this week, the council
voted to withdraw the remainder of its funds
from the Association of Independent Men’s
treasury. A member of the council, in making
the original motion, suggested that the rest of
the member councils do the same: He charged
the AIM treasurer with inefficiency, and stated
that the AIM treasury had a deficit.
The original motion was amended to in
clude only the West dorm council, which
asked that $176 due it by the AIM be trans
ferred to the council's budget. The council
acted without investigating either the charges
or the state of the budget. AIM President
.Richard Bard said that there had been no
money in the treasury while a division of
funds between Interfraternity council and
AIM was being decided upon.
Yet, the council acted either in ignorance of
these facts, or ignoring them,
NOW, MEMBERS of the council claim that
the motion was made in order to get the neces
sary money for the West dorm houseparty,
more than a month away. They say that the
motion was made at the request of the treasurer,
who was not at the meeting. Yet no mention of
the use of the money was included in the motion,
a rather unusual practice, and the member who
introduced it suggested that the other councils
be included in the demand for the money owed
them. The other councils have no part in the
West dorm houseparty.
Ii would seem ihal the council members
who are now saying that the money was
needed for the houseparty have seized upon
a convenient cover-up for the rather brash
action it has already taken.
The incident of the council’s votipg to bypass
Russell Clark, director of housing, for some
justified or imagined slight still hangs around
any action taken by the council.
AT THE SAME MEETING that the money
question was taken up, it was suggested that
if Clark failed to see things the way the West
dorm council did as regards the question of
laundry case service in the area, the council
would “go over his head.” The council is plan
ning a survey of its residents on the matter.
Clark gave them the reasons for his refusal.
The council gave none for the granting of the
service other than that it would be convenient.
Student government at Penn State has a lot
to say about what goes on on the campus. Is its
power to be impeded by having one of its com
ponent parts acting like a spoiled child every
time someone' crosses it, and crying Mama
when vexed? Or will that part mature and learn
to fit into the pattern of regulation laid down
by many years of experimentation?
THE WEST DORM COUNCIL has not com
pleted its first year on campus yet, and mistakes
are natural. They can be valuable if the council
learns by them.

Clothing Drive
The Inter-Church fellowship of State College
will be gathering clothing for Korea again today.
As has been stated on many occasions by var
ious civic and government leaders, the need
for garments of all kinds is great. Uprooted by
the fighting, Korean civilians had to face the
winter months ill-clad and without shelter.
With spring weather arriving in State Col
lege, many have cast aside winter clothing which
they will not be using again. A phone call this
morning to the Westminster foundation. 2942,
will bring a campaign representative to pick up
such clothing this afternoon. Look aroupd the
room now to see what you have to give.

'How' To Attain Goal Held Immaterial
TO THE EDITOR: In a recent article on “Campus Party Plat
forms” Herbert Stein debased the committee as a body to work for
lowering the cost of text books, yet no other method for the achieve
ment of this party'plank was suggested. It is a fact that the vast
majority of our domestic policies in the national government are for
mulated in the committees of Congress which seems to the govern
ment to be the best method available under existing conditions, and
constructive policies have been
determined by the Legislative
Reorganization committee and
other special committees. If a
better method than the committee
is available, I am sure that bpth
the campus parties and our gov
ernment would be very gratified
to be exposed to it..
The parties were also criticized
on grounds that they did not give
the details as to the methods they
proposed to employ in achieving

Scares North Koreans
Lieutenant Lawrence Sloan, now. fighting with UN forces in
Korea, was graduated from Penn State in 1949. Recently his wife,
Jean, a junior in advertising, received the following clipping from
the Korean edition of Stars and Stripes:
“North Korean officers are awaiting a good look at the giant
who left his footprints on the north bank of the Han river recently
after an American patrol visited
enemy territory.
“Their man is Lt. Lawrence A.
Sloan, platoon leader in Fox com
pany of the 15th Infantry regi
ment, who stands a half inch over
the six-foot-six mark and wears
size 14 EEE shoe pacs.
“The'lieutenant has been a real
enigma to supply sergeants. He
has been waiting a long time m

their proposed platforms. Appar

which will stretch satisfactorily

his trousers jumping a ditch,
bringing down a cur.se upon the
head of the supply officer.
“American intelligence has
learned that Lieutenant Sloan’s
footprints have caused Commu
nist intelligence much bewilder
ment.”
