Town Council
Approves Part
Of McCoy Plan
A motion to accept part of
Dean McCoy’s seating plan was
passed by AIM Town Council
last night.
The motion, proposed by Ho
ward Mason, calls for the selling
of 300 non-reserved seats to fac
ulty, alumni, and townspeople

tary tickets given to athletes be
eliminated. This motion- differs
from the McCoy proposal in that
the McCoy plan contains no pro
vision for elimination of compli
mentary tickets.
Another motion,' on a second
McCoy proposal that the colored
ticket plan for student seating
be accepted, was defeated.
A third motion that the coun
cil go on record favoring thd
AIM Board of Governors’ • Board
of Control proposal was passed
over three dissenting votes.
The constitutional committee
was designated by president Ed
ward Theime to work on an
amendment to the constitution
to leave any vacant positions in
the council be left open until
such a time when a petition is
drawn up and an election is held.
The policy now is to appoint
people to the position without
an election.
The council also voted to go
on favor for supporting the blood
drive and the Campus Chest.
A stormy debate fol' ved a
motion.proposed by Thomas Tay
lor to reimburse Taylor for
money' lost while building - the

Fraternity
Pre - Penn
A number of fraternity men shouting “Let’s go Penn State"
held a pre-Penn game parade and rally-late last night.
Starting around Tau Kappa’ Epsilon fraternity, the shouting,
trumpet-blasting men circled the fraternity area and headed for
thecampus, aiming toward Recreational Hall, where a wooden
cross and a Penn football “player”, was waiting to be burned:
■ A number of placards with the
sign “Beat Penn” were carried
by the marchers.
The idea for the demonstration
developed during the early after
noon emanating from, the direc-.
tion of Tau Kappa Epsilon and
Delta Tau Delta, whose officers
announced the parade to the
members of the houses
The parade and, demonstrations
were reminiscent of fall 1948, the
last year Penn. State played the
University of Pennsylvania in
football. ' The week before the
game at that time .was filled with
rallies and fraternity parades.

Chem-Phys
Approves
Amendment
The Chemistry and Physics
Student Cotmcil last night ap
proved an amendment to its con
stitution allowing the two fresh
men representatives to the group
to be from any curriculum in the
school.
Previously 'the con s t i tution
stated the two eouncilmeh' must
be from the two largest curricu
lums in Chem-Phys. The only
stipulation now is that they may
not be.. from the same depart
ment. ,
Lincoln Warrell, president of
the group, scheduled voting sup
ervisors for the freshmen elec
tions to be held today and to
morrow in Osmond Laboratory.
Sixteen have been nominated for
the two posts available in the
coming ballotting.
It was also announced by Tour

guided tour of the Chem-Phys
school for a group of ten will be
held at 2 p.m. Wednesday. The
tour will start at 123 Osmond

Rally
1948, ending a thirteen-game
winning streak for the Penn
team.' At the time Penn State
was also undefeated for the sea
son.
The spontaneous demonstra
tion last night was a preview of
a planned rally which will be
held at 7:15 tonight in front of
Old Main. Tonight’s rally „ will
include music by the Blue Band
and a torchlight parade. The
rally will be sponsored by Blue
Key, junior men’s hat society,
Chimes, - junior women’s hat so

cluded in the letter.
The plans to set aside 300 un
reserved seats for faculty, alumni,
and interested townspeople and
to divide student tickets into two
groups for indoor events in Rec
reation Hall were unanimously
opposed by the council. The group
also went on record as unanimous
ly opposing the ticket situation
for away games.
In the letter requesting the ex
tension of freshman dating privi
leges, the IFC listed five reasons
why new consideration should be
given the rule, forbidding fresh
man women in fraternity houses.
The letter says the rule is now
outmoded because it was made
several years ago, and since then
the fraternity situation has greatly
improved. The influence of older
men is gone, the letter continues,
because older Gls attending school
under the GI Bill are gone.
Stressing the results of a re
cent poll among freshman women,
the letter states that the effective
ness of the rule is questionable.
The poll showed freshman women
who had been placed on their
honor to abide by the rule have
not felt the obligation to do so.
This, the letter continues, shows
that ther is nothing objectionable
taking place at fraternity social
functions.
The -letter also said fraternities
are trying to combat misguided
public opinion and that because
the College has such a rule, the
public must feel that social life
in houses is objectionable. The
fifth point stated that fraternities
have received no assurance of
confidence • from the College that
the situation has improved at all.
Reporting on the progress of the
IFC rushing program, Thomas
Schott, rushing chairman, said ap
proximately 220 CL “Penn State’s
Fraternities” magazines have been
sent ,to freshman-men and new
students. He added that reply
