$2 Alumni Hate
Ends June 7
Commencement Day is the last time graduating seniors may take
advantage of the special $2 membership rate of the University
Alumni Association. The regular rate of $3 will apply after June 7.
About 200 of the approximate 1600 seniors have applied for
membership, Mary E. Swartz of the Alumni office said yesterday.
In the past about one-third of
each graduating class has joined
the association, she said.
University alumni are living in
most of the countries of the world
including Saudi Arabia, Cuba, In
dia, European countries, and at
last communication, Russia. Since
most alumni are still living in
Pennsylvania, most of the 63
alumni district clubs are in this
state. However, 13 other states, in
cluding California and Texas, as
well as Puerto Rico have one or
more clubs.
Provides Programs
These groups are sponsored by
the Alumni Association, which
provides films, speakers and oth
er types of programs for them.
The clubs, Miss Swartz pointed
out, are particularly valuable in
helping new graduates become ac
quainted in their new communi
ties. j

Students Lead
Cops on Chase
Lloyd Arms and Lawrence
Gershman, fourth semester busi
ness administration majors, led
borough police and the Campus
Patrol on a merry chase around
the western side of State College
Tuesday night, with two mat
tresses strapped to the top of their
car. They told police they did it
as a joke.
The mattresses had been re
moved from Watts Hall late that
night. The patrol spotted the
mattress-laden car about 11:25,
screeching around the corner at
Burrowes and Pollock roads. As
the patrol approached, the stu
dents took off, with the' patrol
in pursuit. The chase led through
the western section of the bor
ough, through stop signs and
traffic lights, according to the
patrol report.
Borough police were notified,
and the car was finally cornered
near the Meyer Coal yard on N.
Gill street. University officials
are planning disciplinary action
on the removal of the mattresses.
Borough police said charges would
be filed for the traffic violations.

No 'Campus Woo'
As Yet Reported
To Deans Office
No cases of unwarranted love
making in dark places on campus
or in parked cars have been re
ported to the Dean of Women’s
office, Capt. Philip A. Mark of
the Campus Patrol said yester
day.
The patrol is now enforcing a
regulation of the Dean of Wom
en’s office prohibiting such activ
ity. Mark stressed that the pa
trol is merely enforcing the reg
ulation, and is not responsible for
issuing it.
The regulation states: “All pa
trolmen are hereby authorized to
take the names of- any and all
women found in dark places on
campus, and in case a couple is
found, to take the names of both
parties. In fact, the patrol is duly
authorized to take the names of
women in any situation that war
rants the attention of a patrol
man.”
Burglary Plan

Each fraternity has been asked
to lock their house securely and

name with- the police who will
check the area nightly.
Police will' check each house
for visitors and intruders nightly.
Any person who is in a house
which has been closed and hasn’t
reported to the police will be

Home Away from Horn
HUB Will Provide
Vacation Comforts
You won’t have’ to go away to the mountains or the shore to
enjoy the luxuries and comforts of a vacation come next November.
There’s one obvious reason why that cold and usually gloomy
month can inspire such pleasant thoughts, and that can be summed
up into three long awaited words or one brief grunt—the Hetzel
Union Building, or more than
likely, the HUB.
Penn State students seem to
have_ a great affection for brevity,
but in this case their nickname
for the new Student Union build
ing will hit the nail right on the
head, for the Hetzel Union Build
ing will truly be the “hub” around
which the lives of the majority
of the student body will revolve,
at Jeast in leisure moments
Even the building of the first
movie drive-in theater couldn’t
have attracted more enthusiastic
response than the construction of
the _ HUB'. From the brief era of
the 'dynamite blasts of last-spring
to the mysterious inner develop
ment going on at the present time,
students, faculty, and alumni
have passed the building with
sighs of • anticipation. There is
plenty of reason for this as you
shall see.
Inside Impressive
Let’s take a,brief inside look at
this impressive modern structure
to get a glimpse at exactly what
it holds in store. The basement
will hardly hold interest for most
people, for here will be found
crawl space and storage for elec
trical equipment and locker rooms
for employees.
But then . there is the ground
floor with its countless features
including a bright sandwich shop
and snack bar which will seat
about 500 people. Students will
be able to purchase' school sup
plies, stationery, and souvenirs in
the new and enlarged quarters of
the Book Exchange, now located
in the Temporary Union Building.
Luxurious Student Offices
Groups such as Thespians, the
Central Promotion Agency, and
Froth will find themselves housed
in the utmost of luxury in student
offices located on, the ground
floor. There will also be a photo
graphic laboratory which will
probably be operated by a stu
dent camera club.
Students, faculty, and alumni
will have plenty of room to relax
from the cares of the world.
Among the many recreational fa
cilities of the HUB will be a tele>
vision theater and gigantic game
room complete with 16 ping pong
tables, room for the bridge and
poker games and even shuffle
board.
The first floor will be a haven
for lovers of music and dance.
Seven music listening rooms and
one main listening room equipped
with a beautiful grand piano can
not be topped for the ultimate in’
musical facilities.
And,* of cour s e, there’s the
Cramming
6or Exams?
Fight “Book Fatigue" Safely
Your doctor will tell you—a
NoDoz Awakener is safe as an
average cup of hot, black cof
fee. Take a NoDoz Awakener
when you cram for that exam
...or when mid-afternoon
brings on those “3 o’clock cob
webs.” You’ll find NoDoz gives
you a lift without a letdown...
helps you snap back to normal
and fight fatigue safely!

much talked about grand ball
room and roof terrace. Here '6OO
couples will be able to dance
without smashing each other as
they look out at Mount Nittany.
Dance lounges will be found along
the side.
Also on the first floor will be
the browsing library, which is not
strictly a study room, where teas,
meetings, and other functions may
be held. There will also be a large,
main lounge and exhibition room.
Along the main lobby may be
found the athletic ticket office
and Student Union desk, now lo
cated in Old Main. A small lec
ture hall seating approximately
198 people will be used for a var
iety of purposes.
Meeting, rooms including ten
student offices for hat societies,
Women’s Student Government
Association, and other groups will
be housed, on the second floor.
The . seven special meeting rooms
will be separated by sliding glass
panels in order to expand them
for large meetings. The Student
Union office staff will also find
facilities on this floor.
A. modern cement canopy will
lead into a landscaped courtyard
at the entrance of the HUB. An
other little-mentioned feature
that should prove of particular
interest to students with ah eye
for relaxing and bull sessions will
be the terrace next to the sand
wich shop.
And so it is easy to see what
revolutionary effects the new Stu
dent Union building will have on
campus life. The Centennial cele
bration next year will truly mark
100 years of progress at Penn
State, but just imagine what 2055
will hold Black Moshannon
classes here we come!
