VOL. 53, No. 77
Senate Sets
Chaperone
Regulations
, A recent ruling’by the Senate
committee on student affairs re
quires that chaperones for social
events be selected to conform to
certain acceptable categories. Pre
vious rules allowed social groups
to select any adult couples as
chaperones.
The new ruling lists four ac
ceptable groups for selection of
chaperones: 1., any full-time fac
ulty or administrative staff mem
ber; 2., any alumni (men or wom
en), of at least five years’ stand
ing; 3., parents of members of the
social organization; and 4., men
or women fraternity counselors.
The rulings were announced- by
the deans of men and women in a
memorandum addressed to the
presidents and social .chairmen of
student organizations. The memo
randum also explained the change
in College rule Z-2 e, which now
requires that dates and chaperones
for social events be approved by
the deans one week prior to -the
event.
The four acceptable categories
were set up to guide presidents
and -social chairmen in selecting
approved couples, the memoran-
dum states. The note adds. that
social event notices should be
filed in the usual way, the dif
ference being that rejection of
these dates or chaperones may
be forthcoming"from either dean’s
office. Such rejection would take
' place within two days of the fil
ing of , the notice, the memoran
dum says.
Exceptions to the four cate
gories should be cleared in the
deans’, offices before invitation
of the chaperones, the note adds.
The new rulings go into effect
immediately.
Student Put
On Probation
A student was put on probation
for the,, rest of the semester for
driving and parking on campus
while serving a two-week proba
tion sentence at Tribunal meet
ing last night.
The court did not consider valid
the student’s excuse that in chang
ing schools near the end of. last
semester, he was forced to violate
the rule. It was made clear by
the board that any further vio
lation would result in his car
being sent home.
: Another violator was fined and
placed on two-week probation for
parking in Old Main driveway,
using a permit issued normally
only to construction men.
Most of the violations incurred
were first offenses, for parking
infractions. Chairman James
Schulte pointed out that campus
parking lots are at present loaded
to more than their full capacity.
He urged that students adhere
strictly to the rules set up.

College Seeks
Approved Rooms
An approved town housing
list is in the early stages of
compilation.
Applications are being sent
to State College residents who
wish to rent rooms to students,
inviting them to place their
names on an approved list in
the Dean of Men’s office, ac
cording to Dean of Men Frank
J. Simes.
Any ’ householder who now
rents rooms or may desire to
rent them will be added to the
list if he meets the approval of
a committee which will con
duct an inspection program.
The need for compiling and
maintaining such a list is in
dicated, Sim e s said, by the
number of. students and parents
who wish information on de
sirable accommodations down-,
town. The list would also be
helpful to the renters as it
would enable them to fill their
rooms quickly, he said.

Koreans Begin Lobbying
For Prexy's Appointment
A campaign among Korean citizens in Washington, D.C. to ap
point President Milton S. Eisenhower ambassador to, the Republic
of Korea has been reported by Peter Lisagor in the Harrisburg
Evening News.
| Because he believes Dr. Eisenhower’s appointment would have
a “deep psychological impact” in Korea and the rest of Asia, Yong
Jeung Kirn, head of the Korean
Affairs Institute, is an avid
backer of the suggested appoint
ment, according to Lisagor.
With Korea the scene of both
a hot and cold war, an American
of “great stature” should be sent
there, Kim insists. Dr. Eisenhower
qualifies as a diplomat, journalist,
scholar, arid educator, he added.
“After all, it’s a political war
out there, too,” Kim said.
Mentions Campaign Promises
“The strong- willed Korean
president, Syngman Rhee would
listen to him,” Kim also declared.
Appointment of Dr. Eisenhower
would impress upon the enemy
that the U.S. President -refhembers
his campaign pronouncements on
the war, according to Kim.
Kim believes-American objec
tives will be lost “unless the Uni
ted States helps the Korean peo
ple to establish a representative
democratic government.”
Kim, in a bulletin he published,
noted that Dr. Eisenhower had
beeri mentioned as An ideal choice

ment by JVlichael W. Straus, who
recently resigned the position.
Kim Not Discouraged
The job of ambassador is more
important and more urgent, sug
gested Kim.
But administration sources in
Washington surmised-that the na
tion’s President probably would
want his brother closer at hand
for advice and help. Kim isn’t
being discouraged by this sur
misal.
Dr. Eisenhower already has been
appointed to one job by his bro
ther; he is a member of a special
committee- headed.by Nelson A.
Rockefeller to study reorganiza-'
tion of the executive branch of
the federal government.
The chairmanship of the Amer

also held by Dr. Eisenhower. This

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
Exam
Most
Director of Student Affairs Wilmer E. Kenworthy yesterday warned students that
the College considers the sale of final examinations one of the most serious of student
offenses and “disciplinary action will be taken accordingly.” ,
Kenworthy said “the sale of final exams cheapens the degrees received by each student
from the College.” He also said if it becomes known finals can be secured for a price,
State Bands

At Festival
Musicians and directors repre
senting 180 high school bands
throughout western Pennsylvania
will begin arriving in State Col

Western All-State High School
Band Festival, which will get
underway tomorrow.
The festival will continue until
Saturday. The band members will
take over Schwab Auditorium for
rehearsals, meetings, and con
certs.

Saturday. All concerts will be
given in Schwab, 'and tickets,

Main. > ■ ------
Sales Considered
Serious' Offense
degrees will be. little more than
paper.
Kenworthy’s statement came
following a wave of administra
tive criticism concerning the re
cent circulation of at least ten
final exams among students.
George L. Haller, dean of the
School of Chemistry and Physics,
revealed yesterday that a faked
copy of a chemistry exam was
circulating in mimeograph form
four days before the exam was
made. Dean Haller called the sit
uation “a commercial deal in
which fake exams were being sold
by and to students.”
Dean Haller likened the exam
leak situation to an airplane ac
cident. “It happens in a statisti
cally rare instance, but its gen
eral effect is'bad,” he said.
Edward Steidle, dean of the
School of Mineral Industries, said
“Dishonesty of this type is no way
to get an education. Intellectual
dishonesty is hopeless education.”
Dean Steidle said no finals were
out in the Mineral Industries
school.
/ Dr. Brice Harris, head of the
English Literature department, in
which two finals were out, said,
“It is singularly unfortunate this
had to happen at any time, but
especially at a time when the fac
ulty had been warned against it.”
He said he feels “a very limited
group engaged ,in securing and
selling 'final ‘exams” and said he
has “every reason to believe most
students were basically honest
and made no attempt to secure
or use the exams.”
The deans of all schools except
Liberal Arts told the Daily Colle
gian they feel no exams leaked
out in their schools. In the Liberal
Arts school, Dean Ben Euwema
has already announced an inves
tigation into the exam leak is in
progress.

Approves
Radio Fee
The Engineering Student Coun
cil at a special meeting last night
voiced overwhelming support Of
the proposed 20-cent, assessment
to cover the students’ share of op
erating a campus radio station.
The proposed radio assessment
is scheduled to be first added to
the fees next fall, with a similar
assessment each semester to, fol
low. The new station itself is
scheduled to begin operations in
either May or early June.
Although the operating costs, of
the station are expected to
amount to $6OOO, the College.has
agreed to -pay half with the .re
maining $3OOO asked of the stu
dents. The original 15-cent raise
was changed to 20 cents, Robert
Watson, council president, report
ed, to give the new station lee
way, in offsetting any unexpected
cost in operation and to .aid town
groups in installing devices to
change the FM signal to AM.
The station will not be operat
ing on -a ‘ full-time schedule ■at
first, Watson added, but will
gradually expand operations. .

dents are behind the project, ,he
said.
