Simes last night and discussed its functions and limits. The judicial board, which was officially approved in December but has not yet begun to func tion, is to be the official watch dog of discipline among inde pendent men. The group is chaired by Edward Thieme, pres ident of Town Council, and has two members from each of the four independent men’s govern ing councils. Thieme defined the board’s scope of activity as including dis turbances caused by independ ents or complaints lodged against them either on campus or down town. Any independent man' or dormitory counselor as well as college and borough authorities may file complaints with the board, and the Dean of Men’s office may refer cases to it, he said. Punishments, he said, would be in the form of fines or probations or both, and the board is also em powered to recommend suspen sion or expulsion of the student to the Dean of Men’s office. Pun ishments would be approved and backed by Dean Simes, he added. Dean Simes told the group he hoped their actions would set an example and impress the offen ders and the student body • that any misdemeanor is injurious to the College and its reputation..

Livengood, Jr., who declared Monday that a near breakdown of the state govern ment would result from applica tion of the committee’s suggest ions. Livengood asserted that the Chesterman ideas would result in “big government,” which he des cribed as one of the evils of our times. Other department heads to blast the Chesterman group include Dr. Francis P. Haas, superintendent of public instruction. This depart ment was one of the first “in vestigated” by the committee, and it was in that report that Francis J. Chesterman, head of the com mittee, cited the College’s con struction. Other state legislative matters related to the College and the students are: The sponsoring of a bill to low er the voting age in the state to 18. Sen. Albert R. Pechan, the author of the controversial loyalty oath law, proposed the 18-year old vote law in the Senate. A similar bill is before the House. Veterans’ groups are supporting this bill.

College Officials Maintain Silence on Sewage Plan College officials said they prefer to remain silent on the current joint College-borough sewage plan discussions after the Centre Daily Times yesterday, called the discussions “a professional sewage brawl" in its editorial columns. The Times’ editorial attacked the difference in reached by two different engineering firms on the best College and the borough to ex pand present sewage facilities. The firms offering opinions are Morris Knowles Inc. of Pittsburgh and Gilbert Associates of Read ing. The Knowles company proposed a joint project east of the present borough disposal plant at an esti mated cost of $1.5 million. The proposal formed the basis for the College-borough negotiations. A report by Gilbert Associates, fa vored by the Board of Trtjstees, said the College could reach its objectives at about one-third the cost by expanding its present plan. Operation and maintenance cost would also be appreciably smaller, the firm said. Two other “stumbling blocks” that the editorial named are the financing of the joint sewage plan and the handling of the plan de velopment. Figures presented fi nancing the plan, according to the WEDNESDAY, EEBiWAPY 4, I«SS Prospects Dirti On Vet School Construction Prospects for a veterinary school at the College dimmed greatly when Gov. John S. Fine did not provide for such construction in his budget message to the General Assembly last week. He did, however, set aside $300,- 000 for veterinary research at, the, College. The estimated cost of a new veterinary school, at the; Col lege was $6 to $7 million. 1 Con struction of a veterinary school was sought by the State Council of Farm Organizations last De cember. That group is composed, of 30 state-wide farm groups. After an investigation, the Joint State Government Commission announced that establishment of the school would be unfeasible because the needed veterinarians could be handled from the Uni versity of Pennsylvania School of Veterinarian Medicine. The proposed school would graduate 75 doctors yearly. ' Honorary Initiates Larson, Five Students Dr. Russell E. Larson, new head of the. , Horticulture department, and five undergraduates have been initiated into Phi Alpha Xi, national floriculture honor fra ternity.

Handling the development of the plan,under an authority must be done by the borough, according to law, the editorial said. On this point the Times’ said, “It appears that the College is reluctant to accept this situation.” v The College officials, James Coogan Jr., assistant director of the department of public infor mation; and Samuel K. Hostetter, comptroller, did say that the way for negotiation was still open de spite the opinion of the Board of Trustees. In addition, Hostetter said the next move is up to the borough.
