rules will be enforced during the
entire cust om s period" was
changed to "no dating will be per
mitted during the entire customs
period (dating is anything more
than hello)."- The change was
made for :clarity.

flicted by the freshman customs
board, Judicial, or the freshman
customs and regulations board,
instead .of just by Judicial -as
originally stated.
5.• The phrase, "anyone over 21

customs" was changed to "any
one 21 or, over may appeal for
immunity- from customs."

.n:ow Heralds Spring's Arrival'
•Along with • the many things
Leap Year does, it brings spring
in one day early. Spring arrives
today wearing a blanket of snow
on her shoulders, not a very
promising sign, according to a re
port from the College Weather
Station.
Reports say that spring will• not
be shedding much of her winter
bundlings _.during the c u r r e n t
month. Yesterday served as -an
indication of what can be expect
ed. Snow, the greatest amount
to fall in any one storm this
winter, heralded spring's arrival
yesterday. After seven inches ,of
snow fell early yesterday morn
ing, fairly, high - temperatures, in
the middle 40's, melted a little,
but left, enough to chill spring
to- her bones.
- Students were able to renew
their attempts at slipping. Even
more, this snow storm added to
diversion for the male sex. Find
ing that ,the snow was good for
packing,_ they -regressed to _old

The action came after more than three hours of deliberation by
the union, which ‘claims to' represent some 800 service employees of
the College. Other estimates, how
ever, have placed ,the membership
at about 300.
Last night's meeting had been
called by the union two weeks

mit the administration to bring
to the attention of the trustees the
five points which were presented
to, President Eisenhower in our
letter of March - 6."
The trustees meet March , 28.
Dailey continued: "The' em

would go through with the 'con

"The amount of money. which
would - -be necessary to, achieve a

For NCAA Tournament
Penn State's tournament hound,
basketball team will leave for
Raleigh, North Carolina, at 8 this
morning from the Corner Room.
The Lions will travel , to Al
toona by bus and by plane to
Raleigh. Coach Elmer Gross'
courtmen will arrive in Raleigh,
,
at about 1 this afternoon.
Tomorrow night the Lions open
the Eastern regional NCAA tourn
ament against Kentucky. The
game will start at 7:30 (See story
page 6). . ,
have •to contend with predicted
partly cloudy and cold weather
with snow flurries today.
This year's winter is reported
to .hove been colder than last.
However, in general, temperatures
have been above the average for
previous years. In January tem
peratures were 4.5 degrees above
average, while in • February they
were 5.2 degrees above the norm.
With the seven inches of snow
yesterday and more predicted for
today, last March's snowfall of
0.9 inches already looks sad. The
long-range, outlook for spring is
an unpredictable one, weather
authorities said, since meteorol
ogists don't make predictions for
periods of more than 30 days.
March's entrance like a lion
continues to roar loud. Spring is
here, the date indicates, and thiS,
according to an old saying, should
indicate that •March should leave
like a lamb. • It has 11 days •to
prove. itself.
