ed disciplinary probation for four
first semester students who were

also be approved by the dean of
men's office.

Water Battle
The water battle in McKee took
place following the Pitt-Penn

ported by the resident dormitory
counselor. In addition to recom
mending disciplinary probation
for one calendar year, the board
also recommended that letters be
sent to the parents of the four
boys.
In the Nittany-Pollock area
case, the assaulter said he had
seen the second student cut into
line and had asked him twice to
return to the end of the line. The
first student said that the fight
broke out after the second student
twice refused to return. The fight
continued until the two men were
separated by the dormitory coun
selor.
Assaulter
The assaulter said he had ob
served the problem of line cutting
for some time and when it seemed
to him that nothing was being
done about the problem, decided
to do something about it himself.
The Judicial Board of Review
set up a committee to initiate ac
tion with the dean's office, Nittany
and Pollock Councils, and resi
dent counselors to stop line cut
ting in that area. The line cutting
fight developed the evening of
the dining hall special Thankl
giving dinner. Because of the
added features of that meal, the

AIM Board of Governors.

Stability, self-sufficiency, and
dominance are rated individually
on the card. Whalen said that an
average mark, around B, is most
desirable. For instance, he said,
if a person is highly unstable he
is likely to become so upset over
little problems that he will be
completely lost when forced to
face major problems.
On the other hand, he continued,
the too-stable, or self-satisfied
student, probably lacks the neces
sary motivation to get things done.

The new freshman and sophomore class presidents were
installed at last night's meeting of All-University Cabinet,
and the election-in which they won their posts came under
the scrutinization of Cabinet members.
Ernest Famous, chairman of the All-University Elections
Committee, presented a report of the freshman and sopho-
More class elections to Cabinet.
Robert Dennis, president of the
Association of Independent Men,
asked Famous • if the financial
statement for the Lion and State
Parties had been filed since it
was not included in the report.
Famous said the financial state
ment had been filed with George
L. Donovan, director of Ass6ciated
Student Activities. He consented
to a request from Dennis that the
financial statement be presented
to Cabinet at a later date.
Diehl McKalip, chairman of the
Board of Publications, asked Fam
ous if the parties had any 'trouble
meeting expenses with the $l5O
given to each party for campaign
purposes.
Famous answered that there
was less publicity in the Borough

not feel they had enough money
to spend in a better campaign
there.
Famous told Cabinet that he
questions the need for decentral
ized voting. He said the percen
tage of students voting in the past
two years when decentralized vot

mately the same as three years
ago when voting was centralized.
With regards to violations of
the Elections Code, Famous said

the Elections Committee, blit it
had been withdrawn. He said the
