The reprimands were issued by the IFC Board of Control. No fur ther action against the houses was taken. Smith declined to reveal the names of the two fraternities. Two freshmen who had been drinking at Theta Kappa Phi and one who had been drinking at Alpha Sigma Phi were given dean of men's office judicial probation last night by the Association of In dependent Men's Judicial Board of Review. Smith said the problem of fresh men getting drunk at fraternity houses is "increasing every week." The reprimand issued last night by the Board carries no penalty, and is just a warning to the fra ternities. He urged three steps to ease the problem: 1. Fraternities post at least two men on door duty during week ends. 2. House officers assume the re sponsibility to see that no one become intoxicated in their houses. 3. Fraternities be especially careful during this weekend be cause it is a big weekend. The only way for fraternities to solve the problem, Smith said, was for each house to assume the responsibility about its own guests.

The board may also require the students to attend any of its meetings, at the board's discre tion, for an indefinite period of time. The board also stipulated that it strongly disagreed with and is against the serving of drinks to minors in fraternities. The board said that it felt the enforcement of this rule had become too lax.

PENNSYLVANIA Rubinstein Gives Plan For Writing Craft is the only thing that can be taught about creative writing, Leonard Rubenstein, instructor in English composition, told the Belle Lettres Club members Mon day night. Rubenstein is the author of the novel, "The Battle Done," which depicts the crude world of a I prisoner -of-war camp during World War 11. His idea for the book was drawn from experi ence's he had while working as an officer in such a camp. Writing fiction creates experi ence, Rtibenstein said, and there fore, the author's job is not to tell a story. A person undergoes experience by establishing a rela tionship with certain stimuli; so, if the author portrays a pattern of symptoms that is true and valid, the reader will be able to make the correct diagnosis of the experience, Rubenstein added. It is not the author's job' to state, but rather to render truism in fiction, Rubenstein said. Rubenstein said form in writ ing is imposed by the mind, and is not inherent. A person cannot be broadminded about his method of writing While writing, he said, but must maintain a strict disci pline over himself. Rubenstein said that writers must know why the experience about which they are writing had the effect that it did upon them. To discover the reason for this effect, he said, requires a painful self-investigation in which the writer must be completely honest with himself. Rubenstein concluded, "A writ er must have overwhelming arro gance. He must have confidence .that his vision is striking and worthwhile."

Group Considers Borough Library committee composed of rep resentatives of various Borough organizations are considering the establishment of a State College public library to meet the need of family readers. The Borough school board went on record as favoring such a li brary at its September meeting. The board said that it could not promise any financial support at this time. Ralph W. McComb, University librarian, said in an article for the Centre Daily Times the Pattee Library does not have many of the books that a public library should have.
