Lion
Goal
Penn State’s frisky Lion may-discard his red and green patched
fur and step out in a new fall suit next year.
A $5O contribution for the Lion suit fund from the Lion’s Pawi
alumni association brought the fund total to $400.76, just over
the goal.
But .the job is not done. Because of increased prices, Harold
' R. Gilbert, graduate manager of
athletics, said at least $5OO should
be on hand before the new suit
can be ordered.
Unreported collections made in
fraternities and dormitory units
should be turned in as soon as
possible, David Pellnitz, Daily
Collegian editor, has announced.
Contributions may be left at the
Collegian office, basement of Car
. negie Hall, from 11 a.m. to noon
and from 4 to 5 p.m., or at the
Student Union desk in Old Main.
Unless the present two-year-old
suit, can be repaired, the Lion
will not appear at any more foot
balLgamea..this fall, Alex Gregal,
who portrays the Lion, said. Or
iginally he was to appear at the
Penn and Pitt games as well as
the last home game with Rutgers.
Because at -least three months
is necessary to have a new suit
made, it will be impossible to
have the new suit this season.
Thompson Hall fr eshmen
opened the drive when they col
letced $122 in the dormitory.
Ernest B. McCoy, dean of the
School of. Physical Education and
Athletics, contributed $35.
' A “Dress the Lion Day” drive
conducted by Androcles hatmen
Oct. 9 netted approximately $ll5.
Booths on campus and at the Cor
ner Room turned", in $32.70. Hat
men collected $82.30 when they
solicited at fraternities during the
drive. At least $25 more in fra
ternity contributions is expected,
Philip Greenberg, Androcles Lion
suit campaign manager, has an
nounced.
A collection made by dormitory
representatives for Leonides, in
dependent women’s organization,
netted $51.71.- Donations of $5
were received from Philotes, inde
pendent women’s social organiza
tion; Phi Mu, Phi Sigma Sigma,
and Beta Sigma Omicron sorori
ties; and Gregal, who wears the
suit. Contributions of $1 were
made by Wayne Mantz and An
thony Tornetta.
At a recent. senior class meet
ing it was proposed that a per
manent fund of $lOO be taken
from the senior class gift fund
for the suit. Each succeeding sen
ior class would be asked to donate
$lOO to this fund, which- would
make funds available at all times
for a new suit.

LA Council
Favors LaVie
$2 Assessment
By LYNN KAHANO^WITZ
The Liberal Arts. Student Coun
cil last night favored-the $2 La-
Vie assessment for second semes
ter freshmen and All-College Cab
inet’s financing the' chess . team
and rejected the Recreation Hall
seating plan proposed by Ernest
McCoy,, dean of the School of
Physical Education and Athletics.
The council unanimously fav
ored the LaVie assessment as the
additional money is needed be
cause of a decreased upperclass
enrollment.
The approval of the $2OO allo
cation to the chess team was made
with the qualification that the
team represent the College and
not individuals.
The McCoy plan which was
rejected proposed allotting 300
seats in Recreation Hall to towns
people and alumni.
First semester freshmen who
wish to run-in next week’s coun
cil elections must submit peti
tions with names of 25 freshman
Liberal Arts students by Saturday
to the dean’s office in 132 Sparks.
Only two members of anv one
fraternity or sorority may be
members of the council.
Paul Sappie, president of Alpha
Kappa Psi, professional commerce
fraternity, inaugurated a series
of talks by LA club heads at
council meetings.
