Ticket Sale
For Forum
Below Average
Ticket sales for the State Col
lege Community Forum series are
running below average, Samuel
Crabtree Jr., chairman of the
ticket committee said yesterday.
At present only 450 season tick
ets have been sold, in comparison
with the average of 750 which are
usually sold. Crabtrees said that
50 single admission tickets were
sold for the Clifton Fadiman lec
ture in November.
Crabtree said that no plans
have been made for the future
series, but said the lack of sales
seems to indicate there is no great
need for a community forum of
this type.
Season tickets for the remainder
of the season are on sale at the
Student Union desk in Old Main
and at Griggs Pharmacy on Col
lege avenue. They are priced at
$3.30 each. Single admission tick

head appeared in the First Drama
Quartette presentation "Don Juan
in Hell," is the director.
Although Miss Moorehead has
I become best known for her so
called character roles, in which
she usually plays villainous, drab
women, her three Academy Award
nominations have come from so
phisticated parts in "The Magni
ficent Ambersons," "Mrs. Park
ington," and "Johnny Belinda."
Her first real fame as an actress
came from a single performance
—the first "Suspense" presenta
tion of "Sorry, Wrong Number."
Portrayals Vary
Miss Moorehead feels that she
gained valuable experience which
has helped her to portray char
acters as a 107 year old woman
in "The Last Moment," through
the March of Time radio show
in which she was required to imi
tate living queens, presidents'
wives, empresses, and axe mur
deresses.

chairman of the Student Encamp
ment Committee, for conducting
this year's encampment.
The recommendations as ap
proved by Cabinet included:
1. The maximum number to
attend be kept at 120.
2. The number of workshops be
k'pt at a maximum of eight.
3. One person be in charge of
the secretariat, with one or two
assistants.

ommended that since •resolutions
are not to be drawn up in work
shops this year, the number be
increased from eight to 12. He
said since there will be less work
to do in the workshops, the extra
time could be used to cover more
workshop areas.

Professor Dies
Dr. Charles H. Tindal, profes
sor of engineering research at the
Navy Ordnance Research Labora
tory, died in the University of
Pennsylvania Hospital on Nov. 20.
He was 40.
Dr. Tindal, who was attending
the Pennsylvania Conference of
College Physics Teachers and the
Physics Club of Philadelphia, be
came ill while at lunch. He was
taken immediately acr o s s the
street to the hospital where he
was given treatment.
It is believed he suffered a
stroke.
Dr. Tindal joined the faculty in
1945 and became professor of en
gineering research in 1947.
He is survived by his wife and
six children, all at home.
No Tuna As Yet--
Phi Sigs Hungry,
Kitchen Empty
The cupboards of the Phi Sig
ma Sigma kitchen are bare.
The sisters have a peculiar hurt,
hungry look these days. The rea
son is simple. Their free supply
of Chicken-of-the-Sea Tuna Fish
hasn't arrived.
National Tuna Week was cele
brated a month ago. The coeds
decided the Chicken-of-the-Sea
Tuna Fish company might be glad
of this opportunity to "establish
their product in the eyes of sev
eral of the future homemakers of
America," to quote the letter the
sisters sent to the company.
The advertising director of the
company agreed. The sorority
would be receiving a case of Tuna
in the near future, he said.
But the cupboards are bare!

ber to eight. He said he felt that
the number of workshops should
remain the same so that the extra
time could be used for discussion
in the plenary sessions.
Cabinet twice d e f eat e.d an
amendment proposed by All-Uni
versity Secretary-Treasurer Rob
ert Homan, that a full-time secre
tary be assigned to each work
shop group.
In past years, a secretary has
been appointed from the work
shop membership. Homan said he
felt this method was inadequate
since the person who was ap
pointed - to act as secretary could
not take notes and participate
effectively in the discussion.
Those who opposed the amend
ment said the presence of a full
time secretary in t h e meeting
would keep one person from at
tending as a member of the dis
cussion group. It was pointed out

Housemother Set-Up
Pleases. Delta Chi.
It appears that housemothers are here to stay
It was only last spring that the Interfraternity Council
was waging a strong campaign against the installation of
housemothers in University fraternities as administration of
ficials desired.
Today only five fraternit
and 12 fraternities employ full
time resident housemothers.
Both John Carpenter, IFC presi
dent, and Dean of Men Frank J.
Simes have expressed satisfaction
with the, housemother setup.
One of the strongest indications
of the merits of full-time resident
housemothers is evidenced in the
action taken this summer by
Delta Chi fraternity when it built
a two-room addition to its house
for its housemother, Mrs. Brown
ie Lee Bailes. The fraternity has
also entrusted Mrs. Bailes with
many duties in addition to chap
eroning responsibilities.
Under the Delta Chi setup, Mrs.
Bailes is known as the house di
rector, an idea pioneered by the
national organization of the frat
ernity.
As the house director she is re
sponsible for the planning of
menus for the meals, supervising
the ordering of food, and over
seeing the work of the cook, kit
chen help, waiters, and maid.
Mrs. Bailes also works in con
junction with the fraternity offi
cers and the 'alumni finance board
in seeing that all of the house
keeping functions are properly
performed.
Mrs. Bailes is well qualified
for her duties having raised three

attend the encampment since the
facilities will accommodate no
more.
After the amendment was de
feated the first time, Earl Seely,
junior class president, moved to
reconsider the question. It was
again defeated.
Other recommendations includ
ed in the report were (1) that the
encampment be scheduled from
Wednesday noon to Saturday
noon as it was this year, (2) that
next year's encampment commit
tee include two faculty members,
two from the administration, and
four students, (3) that the Invita
tion Committee begin selecting
those to be invited, (4) that a re
source group be appointed by the
encampment committee to discuss
possible workshop topics and pre
pare background material and (5)
that a recreation chairman be ap
pointed.
