VOL. 51— No. 127
Amendment
To Charter
Proposed
A proposed amendment to the
College charter will be discussed
at a hearing befere Judge Ivan
Walker at a Centre county court
session Thursday, May 10.
The amendment would equal
ize the representation of agri
cultural and industrial men on
the College's board of trustees.
The charter, as it is now, re
quires 32 members on the board
—l2 trustees coming from "ag
riculture and industry." The new
plan would require six • members
from agriculture and six from
industry.
In the past, representation has
been nearly equal, but there
were times when one group def
initely had, a majority of mem
bers.
The amendment was approved
by a 13 to 9 vote at a trustees
meeting Jan. 20. The petition to
make the change was approved
in Harrisburg by the Council of
Education.
In opposition to the change is
the State Council of Farm Or
ganizations, which filed excep
tions on the grounds that it
would .be "particularly harmful
and injurious to the largest in
dustry of the Commonwealth, to
wit, agriculture."
Backers of the amendment
claim it would reduce any rivalry
or bitterness between the two
factions. They also state the pri
mary purpose of the change Is
solely to benefit the internal
management of the College.
Delegates Go,
To NSA Clinic

elected All-College officers• and
class presidents left yesterday
afternoon to attend a National
Student association sponsored
student government c lini c at

day and tomorrow. The Allen
town clinic is sponsored by the
Pennsylvania region of NSA.

treasurer, respectively, are at
tending, along with David Olm
sted, and _Michael Hanek, senior
and junior class presidents elect.
Edward Shanken is represent
ing the school councils at the
clinic. Retiring All-College Sec
retary-Treasurer Emerson Jones

All-College Cabinet
Considers Motions
All-College cabinet Thursday night approved a motion which
would direct next year's board of publications, with help from other
students designated by cabinet, to study the feasibility of a student
press for die College.
Cabinet also accepted a report on freshman customs with recom
mendations for the custom program next fall
The motion by Samuel
Vaughan, editor of Froth, charged
the Board of Publications with
the duty exclusively, but an
amendment introduced by Edward
Shanken authorized cabinet to
appOint additional members to
the committee. Vaughan declined
in the vote on the amended mo
tion.
Suggests Study
Dean Gladfelter, chairmp of
the publications board, suggested
the study - because, he said, a stu
dent press would of necessity be
a long range program requiring
a great deal more than the
$25,000 which would be available
if this year's senior class gift were
added to the fund which is now
auaiiable for that. purpose.

Gate, Press
Are Gift
Suggestions
A gateway at the junction of
highway 322 and Pollock road,
and a student press are among the
suggestions for a senior gift.
If the gateway , project were
chosen the College would add
enough money to the class gift
fund to pay, for the project in
one ,year.
All-College cabinet decided to
investigate the student press
Thursday night. In order to get
a press suitable for all campus
publications about $lOO,OOO would
be needed. A print shop using the
offset printing process . could be
set up for about $25,000. ,
The gift fund comes from the
money left from the damage fees
paid by the students oiler all
damages are paid. This year's
fund amounts to about $BOOO.
Seniors will vote next week for
their gift preferences. Other gift
possibilities are a campus radio
station, an ambulance, a gridiron
status, a_ grand piano, and a
scholarship fund.
