Petition Papers Delay College Name Change Action on changing the name of the College to the Pennsyl vania State University is still being delayed, pending receipt of the official petition from Harris burg by Judge Ivan Walker of the Court of Common Pleas of Centre County. Judge Walker said yesterday he had no idea when the request papers will be returned to him from the State Council on Edu cation, which approved them last Friday. He must give final ap proval and set the date on which the name change will go into effect. Wilmer E. Kenworthy, director of student affairs, said the Col lege has already contracted the redesigning of the official seal to James H. Mathews and Co., Pitts burgh. They have been asked to de velop the changes in art work and mold tlje new seal, he said. The . main chxnge will be substi tuting the word “university” for “college” in the seal and center ing the name around the- coat of arms. Mark Resigns Job As County Officer Capt. Philip A. Mark, head of the Campus Patrol, who was re elected Nov. 3 to the assessor’s post in Harris Township, has noti fied County Commissioners of his resignation of that post effective Jan. 1. Mark, who has been assessor for 3% years, said he felt the step was necessary because he did not have the time to do the job prop erly. A Democrat, Mark had turn ed down the Democrat’s nomina tion but automatically became a candidate on the Republican tick et because of write-in votes in the primary. He expressed his appreciation to the voters of the township and offered his aid to the person named to succeed him. IFC Group Considers Dating Code The Interfraternity Council workshop discussion group of fra ternity presidents -last night reached "the conclusion that the IFC unchaperoned dating code has been upheld in a satisfactory man ner. This meeting closed the second day of the fourth annual IFC workshop. The workshop-banquet will be held at 6;30 tonight at the Nittany Lion Inn. Lloyd S. Coch ran, vice chairman of the. National Interfraternity Council, and grand counselor of Alpha Sigma Phi fra ternity*; will be the guest speaker. John Note, chairman of last night’s discussion group, stated that it was the general opinion of the presidents that the moral tone of Penn State fraternities has improved during the last three years. The group agreed that the number of parties currently held by fraternities is not in excess. The group also recommended that fraternity relations with the IFC, AFC, and other fraternities on the Penn State campus be improved. It was also suggested that better relations should be maintained with members of the faculty and administration. Th group - also considered the matter of fraternity pledge trips. Alec Beliasov, representing Phi Kappa Psi, reported his fraternity uses pledge trips in order to bet ter acquaint its pledges with the fraternity’s other chapters rather than being part of hell week haz ing. It was also the opinion of the group that expenses on such trips be paid for by the fraternity.

Student Government Revision Advocated Changes for the improvement of campus student government and politics were advocated Wednesday at a meeting of the Penn State Christian Association by Edward Shanken, graduate student in speech, and Ray Evert, graduate student in botany. Shanken, former Liberal Arts Council president, and Evert, for- mer Lion Party clique chairman, were invited to speak before the group on “Campus Politics What’s at Stake?” Both were graduated from the College in 1952. Evert recommended political conventions as a possible means of obtaining greater student in terest in politics and allowing wider participation in political activities. Candidates for All-College and class officers were selected long before clique meetings by the steering committees in both par ties when he. was in politics, Evert said. The steering committees then solicited support among organ ized groups, within the cliques such as fraternities and sorori ties, to insure victories of the candidates they chose when the clique voted, he explained. Students were “groomed” for All-College offices, party clique offices, and other influential posi tions on campus from the time they were freshmen or sopho mores, Evert said. It was custom ary, he added, for the All-College president-elect to award compen sated positions in student govern-, ment and activities, to members of his own party who had aided his election. Evert said he did not know whe ther such conditions exist at pre sent. The former clique chairman also expressed the opinion that the elections committee policies FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1953 should be changed because of the stifling effect the elections code has upon campaigns and plat forms. By eliminating, one by one, var ious methods of campaigning, Evert said the code has added to the “student apathy” over elec tions. He said platforms are mean ingless because the committee out laws planks involving “real is sues.” Direct election of Interfrater nity Council officers, Shanken said, would give more equal , rep resentation to fraternity men. Un der the present system, each frat ernity has one vote for the offi cers regardless of the number of members it has. The system of rotation among sororities for the presidency of Panhellenic Council, Shanken said,. is as “old-fashioned as the succession of monarchs to a throne.” In a discussion after the talks by Evert and Shanken, questions from the floor led to the opinion that a few fraternities • have con trol over many of the key campus positions, and that in some cases an office in a political party or other organization is passed down from one member of a fraternity to another for several years. Lion’s Paw, an honorary for outstanding senior men, - was called a power group on campus, using its influence to assure smooth-running student govern ment for the benefit of the Col lege.
