Gift Ballot
To Appear
In Collegian
The - seven possibilities for the
senior class gift will appear on
a preferential ballot in Wednes
day's Collegian.
Seniors may cast their ballots
for. the method of spending $BOOO
in Old Main Monday through rri
day.
The Senior class gift commit
tee of Otto Grupp, William Barr,
To Ann Esterly an d Joseph
Lenchner chose the best seven
suggestions from all those sub
mitted.
The suggestions include,a grid
iron statue, an ambulance, a gate
at the junction of route 322 and
Pollock road, a student press, a
scholarship fund, a campus radio
station and a piano.
20 Year Scholarship Plan
The $BOOO would be invested to
accrue interest for 20 years for
the scholarship fund. Beginning
in 1971 the College would give
the scholarships to children of
members of the class of '5l with
the highest averages and the most
need. After. 1991 the recipient
would not have, to be a child of
a '5l graduate.
• The money for a campus radio
station would be used to run
wires into living units and for
operation expenses. If this plan
were chosen, it could go into
effect this spring.
Called Wired Wireless
Called wired wireless, the sys
tem would have wires from the
station to dormitories, fraternity
houses' and other living places.
Any radio within 250 feet of the
wire could pick up the broadcast.
Many schools of this size have
set up their own stations which
are under student jurisdiction.
A concert type grand piano for
Schwab would Cost about $5OOO.
