PAGE EIGHT Magazine Fee Payment Favored by Ag Students The payment of the 50 cents subscription fee assessed each stu dent in the College of Agriculture was favored by students polled yesterday on Ag Hill. However, they objected, to the method used last semester for paying the fee. Students last semester. payed the fee when they went to Rec reation Hall but were not in formed of the change in collect ing the fee before they registered. Due to the confusion at Rec Hall last semester about 50 per cent of, the students failed to pay the fee. The assessment was formerly paid when students paid Univer sity fees. . A new plan will be put into ef fect during spring registration. Representatives of the Penn State Farmer, publication of the Agri culture College, will collect the fee at Rec Hall before students register. Each student will be given a receipt upon payment which will entitle him to receive a copy of the Farmer. The subscription fee was passed by the council last April and en titles every student to receive a copy of the Farmer. The 50 cents was first assessed in 1949 as an activities fee At the Agriculture Student Council meeting Tuesday night, Temple Reynolds, seventh semes ter forestry major, said students should not have to pay for a mag azine that is written mostly for farmers of Pennsylvania. Edgar Fehnel, retiring editor of the Farmer, outlined the values of the Farmer for council mem bers. He said the magazine brings recognition to the College of Agri culture because of its large circu lation, more than 1000, among Pennsylvania farmers. “The Penn State Farmer can only be as good as the'whole hearted support it receives from each of us,” Fehnel said. The Farmer operated on a more re stricted budget last year because of the default in paying the fee, and 500 students picked up free magazines, he added. Buttons— (Cantinued from page two) brass, tin, and copper—and are very intricate in design. Even his smallest button, a four-leaf clover, has. an intri.cate line design worked in the metal. Besides metal, there are but tons of glass, wood, plasties, and bone. And from Switzerland he received a button made of whey, the watery substance in milk. , No two buttons in the collection are alike, although the difference may be only in size or color. Some of the buttons are, of course, ordinary ones, such as shirt buttons. But Stewart has collected those which are cubical, triangular, flat and three-dimen sional, simple and very ornate. He has buttons off the uniforms of soldiers, sailors, and railroad workers. He has cameo buttons, handmade buttons and hand painted buttons: He has buttons made in the shape of miniature packs of famous-brand cigarettes and miniature garden tools. He also has what collectors call a “bachelor’s button” with a clip to save the fingers and patience of bachelors. Has Many Sources The 500 buttons have come from friends, stores, and auctions. Stewart says he has often come to work to find a package of but tons left on his desk. Buttons from Germany, Switzerland; and France are sent ,by a sister-who lives in Germany. He gets many buttons by buy ing “surprise boxes”-at auctions. Often these boxes will have but tons strung like beads on pieces of string. These charmstrings, as they were called, were collected by young girls in the hopes that when they got 1000 they would be married and the man of their choice would put the last button on the string. Trade, Sale Offers Stewart has had offers from other collectors to sell or trade buttons, and he supposes his col lection is valuable. But he doesn’t want to trade or sell. “I don’t know why I keep them,” he said, “to hand down, I suppose.” : Stewart graduated from the University in 1925 with a B.S. in agricultural education. After teaching three years, he came back to the campus for his mas ter’s degree and 25 years ago to day, he accepted a position on the University staff. Discipline— (Continued from page one) be set up. The voting will be done separately. The move stemmed fr'm a sug gestion of the senate committee on student affairs. It originally was the result of student encamp ment proceedings. The move is a step towards making the Sen ate committee on student affairs and .its subcommittee on social affairs, both constructive agen cies. Cabinet postponed action- on the proposed Sunday movie ■ regula tions which were presented by Richard Riglihg, co-chairman of the Sunday movie committee. Ac tion was referred back to a com mittee to allow more time for study after a suggestion by David Arnold, All - College secretary treasurer.
