No Leniency on
IFC .Code Violations
In a tense meeting Wednesday night, the
InterHaternity Council stood by Its, executive
committee and its board of control in imposing
a four-week period of social probation on Pi
Lambda Phi for violations , of the rushing code.
The action by the full Interfraternity Coun
cil was in a sense a vote of confidence for
the men who run the IFC. But the over
whelming vote against Pi Lambda Phi's ap
peals-27 to 11 on both counts—is an indica
tion that fraternity men realize the sound
ness of the rule and the importance of its
enforcement.
Pi Lambda Phi first asked that the two men
ordered depledged by the IFC for not having
1.0 All-College average be allowed to stay in
the house. This appeal was answered from the
floor by one of the representatives who said
that his house, like Pi Lambda Phi, had had
the opportunity to pledge men without a' 1.0
average. Like Pi Lambda Phi, he said, his house
needed the men financially. But the 'rule was
there and the rule was to be obeyed, so the men
without a 1.0 average were not pledged.
Pi Lambda Phi broke the-rule and now must
pay the full penalty, he said.
Pi Lambda Phi also asked that it be allowed
to hold a social affair during Junior Prom
weekend. Again the fraternity was voted
down, 27 to H.
With its firm stand, the Interfraternity Coun
cil has indicated that this is one rule no frater
nity can afford to break with the hope for
leniency in the event they are caught at an )
infraction. The council should be commended
for its stand.
PSCA Gift
The true spirit of giving for the sake of
giving and not for the shallow reward of praise
was illustrated in the anonymous gift of $7500
to the Penn State Christian Association. The
alumnus who donated the money for the use
of the PSCA and the College Chapel gave it
in just that spirit, not to gain publicity or
praise for himself. •
At the same time, the gift is a testimony to
the idea that a non-denominational college does
not have to be an irreligious one. It shows that
some people believe that religion has a place
in the lives of students at any college, even if
the primary aim of that college seems to be to
prepare students to earn a living.
Such generosity and insight must have their
own reward.
We add our grateful \ thanks to those of all
the College's students who will benefit from
this gift.

Sports Program
Outlook Brightens
The recent announcement that golf would be
returned to the College varsity sports picture
was, though met with mixed reaction, one of
the quickest and most concrete acts of coopera
tion with student opinion by the administration
in recent years.
The dropping of five varsity sports last
spring was a hard blow to a sportsminded
student body and brought home to us all very
forcibly that financial difficulties were to be
met in the only way possible, by budget
cutting.
It was a more terrible blow to the fans and
participants of the five sports, who felt that
they should suffer only to the extent of budget
cuts within their activities but not by elimina
tion of the activity.
The answer of the College at that time was
that the ' necessary economies could not be
realized unless the five sports were dropped
from the intercollegiate level. BUT, the promise
was made at that time that as soon as the fi
nancial way was clear for the addition of the
sports, it would be done.
H is regrettable that all five could not have
been added to the athletic roster, but it is
reasonable that the financial picture could
have improved to the extent that only one
sport could be added.
In view of this action, it also seems probable
that the others will be added if and when the
possibility occurs. They , may be added one by
one, but that is not important. The important
thing is that• they will be reinstated when
possible. Of that the student body may be
assured—and this assurance is a nice feeling to
have at this time.
