Windcrest
Posters
Explained
Posters that appeared in the
Windcrest area last week which
said the area would close June
unless "the residents take an ac
.tive part in the election of the
governing body of this communi
ty," were distributed to assure
high election returns. John Mc-
Connell, of the election commit
tee, said yesterday.
The posters appeared in the
area prior to last week's area elec
tions. The posters were signed
"Election Committee." At the
time, Russell E. Clark, director of
the department of housing, said
the College had no plans for clos
ing Windcrest in June.
McConnell said it is necessary
to have a strong council to man
age area affairs efficiently if
Windcrest is to remain open. It
is necessary to get out a high vote
to show the College that residents
are interested in keeping the area
open, he added.
The area is run on a year to
year basis, he said. The College
has assured residents there that
the area will remain open as long
as it is needed, McConnell said.
McConnell said this semester's
election returns to pp e d last
year's. He said there are less resi
dents in the area this year.

TEE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANI
ing at 2 p.m. Sunday at Beta Sig
ma Rho. According to Farrell, this
is the first time in the history of
campus politics that a steering
committee session has been
thrown open to all students.
Party Officer Vote
Under the proposed expanded
steering committee plan present
ed at the last party meeting, the
group would consist of all the
party and class clique officers,
the permanent committee heads,
representatives of each school,
and representatives of independ
ent men and women, fraternity
men, sorority women, and Wind
crest students.
Party officers will be elected
at the Lion Party, meeting. Senior
and junior nominations will be
opened. At last week's meeting
only one nomination, that of Alan
Maloney for financial manager,
was made.
Elections Delayed
The elections of the State Party
clique officers were held last Sun
day, but final nominations and
elections of the senior and junior
class clique officers are scheduled
for this Sunday's meeting. At pre
vious meetings Jules Lippert was
nominated for senior clique chair
man, Robert Sherman for senior
vice clique chairman, Jerome
reinburg for junior clique chair
man, and Anne Quigley for junior
secretary.
Lion Party elections were de
layed until the new party consti
tution was approved. The major
change in the party set-up as
provided for in the constitution,
which was approVed last Sunday,
is a cut in the power of the party
chaitman. The constitution pro
vides that the chairman be re.
sponsible for many of his actions
to the executive committee which
is made up of the four party of
ficers and the party class officers.
Another change makes any
party member eligible to become
a member of the platform com
mittee.
