When the campaigning, the balloting, and the counting were all over, 44.3 per cent of the student body had voted in the All-College -and class elections. The large turnout amazed and pleased everyone concerned with the election. A great deal of the credit for the record breaking turnout is due, we feel, to the active campaigning the All-College elections commit tee did on its own. The sound truck which startled everyone on its first few trips around the campus was a big factor in reminding stu dents to vote. The committee should also be commended for taking quick action to curb the use of the sound system when it realized that the noise was' disrupting classes. But both parties should receive credit, too, for the work they did in stirring up the vote. Their campaigns were energetic, and. certainly more cleanly conducted than last year. In addition, they presented good plat forms and good candidates. And students, too, are due for some praise, at least the ones who voted. While each party would like to have had a clean sweep of the offices, we feel the many split votes that were cast and the split slate which finally won out show that students are beginning to use their heads, voting on a candidate's worth, rather than his party affiliation. We hope they have made the right decisions. The split slate also means that there should be no reason why the two parties can't work together in carrying out both platforms. We think they will because we know that the leaders of both parties are working for better student government. But we do not mean to praise everything about the elections. For one thing, we think the elections committee has learned that in the future it would be well to have separate ballot boxes for each group of offices being voted upon. It took eight people almost an hour and a half to separate the ballots elec tion night, delaying greatly the • long and drawn out business of counting the ballots. We also heard many students complain that once they got into the Old Main lounge, they didn't know just where to go. Directional signs would have aided the students and helped to relieve the congestion which occurred when the ten-minute class breaks brought in a great many voters. But what is most important is that we now know how 44.3 per cent of the students feel on certain issues. We wonder what—and if— the other 55.7 per cent are thinking. • —Dave Pellnitz THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA MI Fee. Proposal Is Not Justified The proposal Made:to. the School of Mineral Industries Student Council that a student fee of at least five cents be levied on all students to finance MI field trips apparently stems from All-College Cabinet's recent approval of a 25 cent fee for the support of the agricultural judging teams. A • careful review of the facts makes it clear why the student fee for the ag teams was jus tified and •why a similar fee for the MI field trips is not. The ag teams are just that, teams. They are with one exception, where a credit is given for participation, an extra curricular activity. Even where the one-credit is awarded, partici pation is still on a voluntary basis. The judg ing teams represent Penn State in intercolle giate competition with colleges from almost every state. Such, however is not the case with the MI field trips. They are part of the education of the MI student. As a matter of fact, they are required in the curriculum for a degree. During the discussion on the ag fee some member of the Engineering Student Council made the same point concerning the engineer ing field trips; and the same answer was pro vided: these trips are part of the student's edu cation. Similar field trips are held in almost all cut , ricula and financing one would open the gates for financing all of them. In effect, what the MI council is asking is for other students to bear the expense of their education. It is a doctrine which must be ad mired' for its novelty if nothing else. That is its' wily merit. Gazette .

It hel.s m memor if I 'net write on an th!n•. This, as you may have gotten the vague impression from other graduating staffers writing in this space, is the last issue of the Daily Collegian under the present senior editorial board. The way some members of the board have been carrying on, some ,might get the idea that this will really be the last issue of the Collegian. We somehow have a feeling that many seniors have felt the same way in past years: that the Collegian would not come out after they, had been graduated. Somehow, however, Collegian has perpetuated It self and today ranks among the top college dailies. We are rather proud of our association with the Collegian over the past three years. We are proud because we believe that the Collegian during our stay at Penn State has been a newspaper which has served the students 'arid the College , well, has been a newspaper which has recognized its re= sponsibility to the community, and has earned the respect of the studerit body. We are' humble as the year comes to an end for the oppor tunity to have served the stu dents, for in so doing we have managed, despite ourselves, to grow up. Both in our duties as editor of the Collegian' and in other work about campus our picture of people and ideas has taken on a broader scope. We are doubtful that there are many persons who could have SENIORS IN CIVIL ENGINEERING WORK in CALIFORNIA WITH STATE DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS Fine professional positions now $ 325 open.

Our memory has been forever enriched by the rather wonderful people we have come to know here at State. "The . Col lege itself has become a part of our life. • Vie are thankful to the staff of the Collegian for . the tre mendous job - it has done in producing a - newspaper which we, as editor, know could not have been done' without the hard work and devotion of everyone involved. We are tired—physically tired, that is—from the ,chore of -at tempting to go tq College and editing a daily newspaper at the same time—and are happy that the grind is over. But within a week we shall find ourselves with nothing to do in the after noon and wander into the, office "just to see how the kids are get 7 ting along." We are being sentimental— and that's "out" in the news paper business. Besides, the, new editor says this is all - the space we have. By Bibler • • ••
