Taylor Hits
Reese, Quits
Town. Group
Association of Independent Men
Town Council member Thomas
Taylor resigned from the council
last night, charging that the coun- '
cil was apathetic and; that -if - it
had any courage it would ask for
the resignation of council member
Franklin Reese.
In resigning, Taylor , charged
Reese with using the council for
political reasons. Taylor told the
council he would be more than
willing to aid the council when
it was ready to do some work.
Taylor said he sat in on the
council last year and the council
did not do anything then and
probably would not do anything
this year.
In calling for the resignation - of
Reesehe referred to what he
termed Reese's "ineptitude" as a
member of AIM last year. Taylor
also admitted .he was very dis
appointed that the council refused
to reimburse him for extra work
he put in on council's float in
the Pennsylvania Week parade,
Reese would not reply to the
charges made by Taylor other
than that he was ready to answer
any questions council membeff
might have. There were no ques
tions.
The first reading. of the coun
cil's new constitution was made
by Otto, Standardt. The new con
stitution will contain some 15 re
visions of the old one. Acceptance
of the constitution calls for .at
least tw o consecutive readings
and the approval of three-fourtils
of the council.
A vacancy in the council's rep
resentatives at large to the AIM
Board 'of Governors was created
by Taylor's - resignation. Jerry
Donovan wa s appointed social
committee chairman when ' that
position was vacated by Taylor.

after basketball games and other
indoor activities there. The plans
for post-game dances call for pos
sible hiring of dance bands and
use of records for the dancing
with charge for all students.
McCoy has also proposed two
plans for Rec Hall seating: one

'toms Drill
On Fire Safety
This year fire drills will be held
in men's dormitories on campus
for the first time, according to
Lorin J. Elder, supervisor, safety
division. •The women's dormitor
ies will continue drills as in other
years.
•
Fire drill rules have been posted
in each dorm room. Checkers
have been chosen to see that all
studentS obey them.
When a fire drill occurs, stu
dents are asked to close windows,
turn on ceiling lights, close, but
not lock, doors, and leave build
ings by the nearest exits. In case
of bad weather, students should
go into the lounges instead of out
side during drills.
Elder commended the fraterni
ties because of the decreased num
ber of fraternity fires. He thought
this was due to some national
fraternities insisting on local fire
inspections in fraternities. -
