PAGE El'u""TIT 'Bed Checks' Cause Uprising Of VMI Men LEXINGTON, Va., Dec. 4—(JP) —A sweeping investigation was underway today into a noisy and destructive uprising by students at Virginia Military Institute. Before the Sunday night—Mon day morning affair was over, the historic "West Point of the South" saw windows and lights shattered, furniture burned, property des troyed and some rooms flooded with water. A VMI spokesman said there had been some recent "resentment by cadets" to a "general tighten ing• up" of VMI regulations. He added: "The disorder presumably was in protest of this tightening up. It is presumed that it was pre cipitated in protest over enforce ment of a regulation concerning the time cadets were required to return to barracks on the night of a dance ' held the preceding weekend." - But cadets themselves said - the uprising came as the result of the strict "bed checks" by one of ficer. They said they waited until the officer, not identified, again was officer of the day. That turn came Sunday. , The cadets—wearied by the 40 minutes of "protesting"—went to classes early yesterday with only about two hours sleep after a five-mile, three-hour hike to "cool them off' and discipline them. There was some disagreement among VMI officials as to what provoked the sudden protest. But there was little disagreement that the , affair got out of hand for more than half an hour. Some cadets termed the damage heavy. The spokesman said, how ever, that it was "not extensive." He said the cadets will bear the cost of repairs. • Cadets estimate 75 percent of the 900 students participated in the protest. School officials placed the total at about 200 students. The first Quakers to "arrive in America were two women, Ann Austin and Mary Fisher, who landed in Massachusetts, July 1656, from Barbados.

Allen Street 'the most complete cosmetic counter in Centre County . . complete as a department Bowling -- (Continued tram vage one) necessitated a rise in prices in early 1950. Co - uncil at that time hiked the licensing fee by 3100 per cent over what it had been in '1945. In 1945 the licensing fee had been a flat $5 a year. In 1946 it was increased to $lO for the first alley and $5 for each additional one, or a total of $B5 for the 16 alleys in the Dux Club. In 1949 the borough raised the licensing fee to $l6O for the al= leys, and Gentzel closed his doors. It was then that, public appeal to council forced the licensing fee back to the token $5 per year. Phys Ed Rates Present prices are 25 cents per line, nine cents of which is paid to the pin boys. Students who bowl as part of their physical education courses pay 15 cents a line but set their own pins. Gentzel said both rates would be forced up by the assessment increase. Th e assessment increase was placed on the property listed as 120 S. Pugh street, but Gentzel said that the Dux Club located at 128 S. Pugh street is a part of the property, and that it was toward it that the increase was pointed. Under the increase the proper ty, which includes a garage at 120 S. Pugh street, is assessed at $BOOO.
