About 'Apathy'
A great deal of discontent over
apparent "apathy" in the Barons,
Nittany-Pollock social organiza
tion, and the absence of a Barons
Member at the Pollock Council
meeting last night brought about
a . motion to send the organiza
tion a letter reminding it of its
constitutional duties to the coun
cil.
A previous letter had been sent
to the Barons by the council ask
ing for action. The Barons replied
in a letter to council President
Donald Douglass that to date the
Barons had got plans underway
for the Splinterville Review and
that several other . social func
tions were being planned. The
letter also reminded the council
of its constitutional obligation to
provide the Barons with a finan
cial backing of 40 per- cent of
the council's treasury.
Some discussion was given - to
proposing an amendment to the
constitution restoring a so c i.a I
committee to the council. Howe
ever, ftirther action was suspend
ed on the matter until the council
meets Tuesday to discuss the situ-I
ation with the Barons.
Food problems facing the coun
cil were discussed with Area Food
Supervisor Robertson. Robertson
extended an invitation for any
ideas which might help in im
proving conditions and praised
the council for past cooperation.
Changes Passed
By Engineers
Changes in th e Engineering
Student Council constitution were
approved for the second time at
a council meeting held last night.
The changes will become effec
tive if approval is given at the
next meeting, Robert Watson,
council president, said.
Watson asked council to con
sider changes in the Recreation
Hall seating plans of Ernest B.
McCoy, dean of the School of
Physical Education and Athletics.
Under the new changes, 100 of
the 300 tickets to be given to
alumni, faculty members, an d
townspeople would be compli
mentary tickets, Watson said. The
council has rejected the McCoy
'plan. No action was taken on the
new proposal.
A proposal is being developed
for council approval to help com
bat possible cheating in the School
of Engineering, according to Low
ell Minor, chairman of the ethics
committee.

agreed with a few ideas in the'
plan but agree upon the basic
need for a seating plan for fac
ulty and other persons connected
with the College.
In opposition to the plan are
Interfraternity Council; the Sen
ior Class; Association of Independ
ent Men; and the Agriculture, Lib
eral Arts, Engineering and Educa
tion school councils; and both Nit
tany and Pollock councils.
Seven groups have acted on
McCoy's second plan, that for
divided tickets at crowded games.
All seven have opposed the plan.
MY QUESTION TO THE G-E• STUDENT INFORMATION PANEL:
"What is General Electric's policy on
employment in light of the draft?"
The answers to John Bennett's question - - excerpts taken from the panel discussion - - are given below.
R. J. CANNING, Business Training Department . . .
Basically, the -Company -is interviewing — and considering
college students for employment without regard to their
drift status. We're not pas sing over men beCause they are
eligible ; for .the draft—were hiring them if they have the
qualifications we want in our employees. We are looking
at the area of employment on a long-range basis, and we
think- we - are going to carry perpetual inventory of men
in the armed forces for a Considerable period of time. It's
true we lose some men, but we get many back, and with
this in mind our policy is based on personal qualifications,
not on draft-eligibility.
J. L. MICHAELSON, General Engineering Laboratory
We: are experiencing a growing appreciation of the
importance of an adequate supply of well-trained pro
fessional people to this country's immediate and future•
welfare. Although this situation creates excellent oppor
tunitie6_ for, you students for future employment, the
draft may leave you plagued by uncertainty for the
,preeent. But, remember this, we are not only considering
college people for .employment entirely for the year 1952.
We are also - thinking ahead 'to the years '54, '55, and '56,
and if we : find a good man now, knowing he is going into
military service, we will still make long-range employment
plans for him. We'still would like to have him come with
us after he has completed his Military service.

longer have cars on campus to
turn in their stickers to the Cam
pus Patrol for redistribution.
Eleven case 'were b r ought
against students for driving on
campus without permits and park
ing illegally in areas assigned to
students with registered - cars.
Donnal explained that under pres
ent regulations drivers without
permits are not allowed to park
or drive on campus during class
hours. Cars parked overnight will
be towed away by the Campus
Patrol.
FoUr cases of parking in visitors
spaces w. er e dismissed on the
grounds that the cars reported
to Tribunal belonged to students'
parents and are no longer on cam
pus.
One student protested a $1 sus
pended sentence for illegally park
ing near his classroom when he
had a sprained ankle and could
not walk. Donnal reminded stu
dents that temporarily handicap
ped drivers may apply to the
Campus Patrol for temporary
parking permits in areas near
their classes.

M. M. BORING, Engineering Services Division . . .
Whether or not you are called into military service
you can reasonably expect to follow your profession for
approximately 30 or 40 years. Your solution to the many
problems, such as this one, which arise during . your entire
productive period, will be a lifetime undertaking. A period
spent serving your country in a.military way will represent
a relatively small part of your total professional life. The
way you handle a problem such as this, and -the infor
mation you get to help in its solution, will determine to
a large extent your ability to handle future problems.
Now, where does General Electric stand in regard to
this draft situation? This is our policy. - Regardless of
military status, we desire to interview all students who
are interested in our Company. And, irrespective of mili
tary status, we will make employment offers to all who
have the qualifications We are looking for, and whom we
would like to .have .become .members of, the General
Electric family. If any of these people are called into
service before starting . work 'with us; business conditions
permitting, our offers will be waiting for them when they
return. Those with us before being
_called into.- service
will maintain continuity, and; barring unforeseen circum
stances, will be assured of employment upon return.
Following World War II we did" not haVe to go back
on a single promise. When the present world situation is
concluded we hope our record will remain the same.
