PAGE TWO Parties See As Student The similarity between three of the main planks of the Lior. and State party platforms for the spring All-College and class elec tions was termed yesterday by representatives of both parties as a recognition of student wants and needs. planks are ones pledging support of programs to estab press, to expand the medical facilities of the College, and to set up a system for provid ing lists of recommended housing for students living off-campus. Both Parlies See Needs Both parties pointed out that the similar planks were definite evidence that certain serious campus problems do exist. and that they have been recognized. Joseph Arnold, Lion Party can didate for the office of All-College president, said that the platforms showed “sound thinking” and should be lived up to. John Laubach, who is running for All-College president bn the State Party ticket, said that the needs of the students were ob vious to both parties. He pointed out that this means that the stu dent body will not have to choose between two divergent policies. “The question,” he said, “is rather, which party has the quali fied and experienced candidates to best carry out the common problems in the interest of the Penn State student.” Ease Dorm Food Requirements Besides the planks already mentioned, the Lion Party plat form backs: 1. Easing of administration re quirements compelling students living on campus to contract for College dining service. 2. Action to make personal property insurance available to all students at reasonable rates. 3. The participation of part of the Blue Band at indoor athletic events, particularly basketball.
