PAGE FOURTEEN Ch*rities In c hest To eliminate the problem of repeated charity drives on cam pus, Campus Chest was organized in 1950. The chest conducts a single, consolidated drive during the fall semester of each year. Funds are distributed to a number of organizations, each re- ceiving a set percentage of the amount contributed. No other charity drives are allowed on c. In the 1952 drive. $11,614.17 of zi $12,000 goal was collected. In 1951. $11,890.67, more than 99 per cent of the $12,000 goal, was con tributed by faculty members and students. Nine organizations benefited by the drive last year are the Penn State Christian Association, World Student Service Fund, Women's Student Government Association Christmas Fund ' State College Welfare Fund, Salvation Army, American Cancer Society, Nation al Student Service Fund for Ne gro Students, Penn State Scholar ship, and- the Heart Fund. . PSCA received the greatest amount, 46 per cent. In addition to personal solicita tions, the chest receives funds from socials and special events. A Kick-off Dance in the fall starts the campaign. Two requirements must be met by organizations to be authorized to receive chest funds. Their activ ities must reflect credit on the College community and they must represent the entire College com munity and not a small, segment. The chest developed from plans worked out by the National Stu dent Association, of which the Col lege is a member. The chest was organized to serve three pur poses: to eliminate duplicated ef forts, establish a definite policy toward the operation of fund drives on campus, and emphasize the responsibility of students and faculty toward the charities and organizations benefiting from the fund. Five per cent of Britain's work ers are in defense work.
