PAGE TWO Food Problems Aired by Group (This is the last in a series ol articles on the resolu tions adopted at the first annual Student Encampment.) Problems in the areas of dormitory food service, student co operation and responsibiities, and recreation, were discussed at the first annual Student Encampment at Mont Alto Forestry School Sept. 4 to 6. The dormitory food service committee, headed by William Griffith, considered problems concerned with informing students on menu planning, computations involved in planning the price of meals, and student help in planning meals. The committee made the fol lowing recommendations: 1. All-College Cabinet should coordinate the work of the sev eral food committees and have these groups select, from their membership, responsible students to work in close cooperation with the menu planning committee of the food services department. 2. All-College Cabinet should request the food service to serve a choice of meat or fish on Fri days. 3. All-College Cabinet should inform the student body of the manner in which the price of meal tickets is computed in or der that students may better un derstand the reasons for the non transferability of meal tickets. 4. All-College Cabinet should inform the student body of the College policy regarding the sale of meal tickets to students who live off-campus. 5. All - College Cabinet should inform the student body of the policy regarding meal tickets for guests. 6. All-College Cabinet should inform the student body of the practical reasons for restricting coeducational dining to exchange dinners. Group Discusses Recreation In discussing the possibility for a more effective student govern ment, the cooperation and respon sibilities committee con sidered the removal of All-College Cab inet’s power to amend its own constitution. The committee also considered a joint judicial body for particular cases, instead of the present men’s Tribunal and women's Judicial bodies. The committee on recreation, headed by Frank Hartman, de voted much of its time to the pre sent shortage of recreational fa cilities. The committee presented the following recommendations: 1. A statement concerning the availability of the Student Union Building should be made by Pres ident Eisenhower early in the fall semester in the Daily Colle gian. The statement should give full particulars to date on rea sons for delay and probability of completion, and include a brief review for new students unac quainted with its history. Set Up Permanent Group 2. The problem of better organ ization and participation in men’s independent intramural recrea tion should be examined. a. Independent intramural com petition would be better organ ized by the formation of area councils of the living units with an athletic program chairman meeting periodically with those persons in charge of intramural recreation. b. Indepen dent intramural spirit would be increased by lim iting team representatives to small living units only, which would be combined in case of in sufficient support in a particular unit. c. Intramural competition be tween fraternities and indepen dents would be beneficial to both, and the possibility of such j competition should be considered.! 3. A permanent cabinet com mittee should be created to carry on the work of the encampment committee to consider and seek a solution to all future recreation problems which may arise and to consider the problem of student seating at athletic events. Ask Resurvey of Space The following additional rec ommendations would help alle viate problems of inadequate rec reation facilities: 1. Compiling of an up-to-date master list of recreational facili ties and the procedure and re quirements for obtaining them. To be maintained bv the recrea tion committee, the list be kept at the Student Union desk for the use of all students. This record could include the following;; 1 a. A resurvey of all available campus room space, including classrooms, with description of the room and facilities available. b. A list of College transporta tion which might be available, and procedure for obtaining and keeping a list of student drivers interested in driving at standard rates and their vehicle capacity. A list should be made of nearby off-campus recreational facilities with a description and procedure for obtaining their use. A list should be made of all entertain ers (bands, masters of ceremony, or square dance callers), student or non-student, available in the College area. The recreation committee also recommended the following. 1. Outdoor areas should be lighted, particularly those of soft ball, football, and tennis. 2. Filling in and leveling should be done on the Nittany-Pollock baseball field, using dirt from present excavations. 3. Requisition and lighting of thre fields near the golf course for West dormitory softball and football games. 4. Volleyball courts and equip ment should be included in all ■areas. 5. Additional central campus area should be alloted for wom en's recreation and temporary al lotment of any unused portions of it for the use of men’s town groups. 6. Additional lighted all - wea ther tennis courts should be pro vided. 7. Mt. Tussey recreation lodge should be rebuilt and expanded, and a north wing sho Id be added to Recreation Hall for expanded floor space as soon as possible. 8. The use of church and high school gymnasiums \yhen not oc cupied should be requested for town men’s basketball or other recreation. 9. Hard surface courts or other suitable areas for winter ice skat ing should be flooded.
