Pogal Resigns Post;
3d Party to Organize
Ist Meeting
Scheduled
For Sunday
Lion Party
Will Meet
On Sunday
Gordon Pogal resigned as Lion
Party clique chairman yesterday.
He -aid he felt that a new party
head would be advantageous to
the party at this time.
Pogal said he has called a Lion
Party clique meeting for 7:30 p.m.
Sunday, in Schwab Auditorium
to elect a new clique chairman to
fill the remainder of his term in
office.
"The campus political system
underwent a period of complete
reorganization during the past se
mester," he said. "I believe this
reorganization should also extend
into the administration of the
political parties."
Pogal referred to the chartering
of political parties as student ac
tivities and that they be required
to have their constitutions ap
proved by the University Senate.
Advantageous to Party
"The Lion Party has an advisor
and a new constitution with which
to begin the semester," Pogal
stated. "I feel that a new chair
man at this time would also be
advantageous to the party."
Pogal said he would also pre
sent the- new constitution to the
group at the meeting Sunday
night.
Pogal was uncertain as to who
would be eligible to elect the new
clique head. Under the new elec
tions code, clique chairmen must
be elected by the entire clique.
May Be Restricted
Pogal said he didn't know
whether the election would be
open or would be restricted to
members of the Lion Party who
registered as party members be
fore last fall's elections. The num
bers registered with the All-
University Elections Committee.
Ernest Famous, chairman of the
elections committee, said he would
call a meeting of the committee
to discuss the matter. He said the
Lion Party registration lists com
piled last fall are still intact.
Ea. DelleDonne, State Party
clique chairman, and John Mc-
Meekin, an organizer of the new
Campus Party, could not be
reached for comment on Pogal's
resignation.

Earl Seely
Now Junior Class President
Seely Fills
Junior Class
Presidency
Earl Seely, former junior class
vice president, is the new junior
class president, replacing John
Thalimer, who left school because
of academic reasons.
The junior class will not have a
vice president until Spring elec
tions, when all new officers are
elected. Seely pointed out that
there is no great need for a vice
president as junior week is over.
Junior week was the major pro
ject of the vice president.
"I will do my best," Seely said,
yesterday, "to represent the in
terests of the Junior clam concern
ing the issues that come before
the members of the All-University
Cabinet."
Seely said he would continue
to use Thalimer's junior executive
committee, composed of eight
members, in an advisory capacity.
"I feel the committee is a sound
idea," Seely said, "and I will rec
ommend to the next junior class
president that it be continued."

Outing Club Members" Vacation
At New York State Ski Slope
Slalom, schuss, sitzmark and
ski heil! Don't be surprised if
you hear these ski terms,
around campus, for the Penn
State Outing Club has just re
turned from a week of skiing
at Allegheny State Park in New
York State.
The Outing Club to most persons
may mean a cold, shivering group
of students huddling around a
small fire on top of Mt. Nittany.
But the club members that spent
their semester vacation skiing was
a quite different group. Besides
skiing, they ate, sang and danced
together and, according to those
who made the trip, friendliness
was the watchword.
Nine carloads made the trip, ar
riving at Red House, N.Y., Jan. 26,
27, and 28. They stayed in six
cabins and ate their meals in shifts
in one of the warmer cabins. Food
was prepared by the women and
cleanup was taken care of by the
men.
Skiing at Bova Slopes
Each day the club went skiing
at the Bova Ski Slopes, several
miles from the cabins, where the
novices in the group soon discov
ered the difficulties of skiing. Mas
-1 tering the ski tow was considered
a major achievement by many of
the skiers, and countless pairs of
mittens were worn out in the pro-
The third campus political par
ty, the Campus Party, will hold
its first clique meeting Sunday
evening, even though it is not yet
chartered.
The Campus Party' submitted
its constitution to Ross B. Leh
man, chairman of the Senate Com
mittee on Student Affairs sub
committee on organizational con
trol. This is the first step in get
ting the party chartered.
John McMeekin, an organizer
of the party, said that Lehman
said the party could operate
through its first few clique meet
ings without a charter, as the
charter Was in process of being
approved.
A board of approximately 15
members, chaired. by McMeekin,
will handle official transactions
of the party until the first clique
meeting Sunday night. The party
is open to all students, regardless
of past political affiliation, Mc-
Meekin said.
If Lehman, as chairman of the
committee which requests that
all parties be chartered, approves
the constitution, it will be sent to
the Senate Committee on student
affairs. The final step in obtain
ing a charter will be the vote by
University Senate.
The party can not go into elec
tions without a charter approved
by Senate.
Panel to Issue
Report Soon
The three-man grievance panel
set up to air grievances between
the University and its employees
may be ready to issue its report
on how the University can best
deal with employees organizations
within the next 10 days.
This was revealed last night by
Eric A. Walker, the University's
re9resentative on the panel.
The panel decided to issue the
report last November. It was felt
that the question of fundamental
working relationships was a basic
solution to the specific grievances
presented to the panel by the two
labor groups at the University. A
list of some 20 specific grievances
was presented to the panel.
cess. However, everyone learned,
and can show their bruises to
prove it.
In the evenings the Club mem
bers relaxed their sore muscles at
the administration building, where
they learned to square dance, pol
ka and waltz, under the direction
of Marilyn Black, Patricia Olk
konen and Patricia Farrell.
Singing. Prevalent
Song fests were especially prev
alent during the outing, and club
members could be heard singing
whether riding in cars, sitting in
their cabins, or grouped around
the piano in the administration
building.
Although no one came home in
a cast, there were some accidents.
Jack Leiby tore several leg mus
cles and, aside fforn playing ping
pong, spent most of his time hobb
ling around on crutches. After a
bad fall, Polly Fowler Was un
able to ski for two days because
of an injured knee, but did go back
on the slopes during the final two
days of the trip.
New Words
Everyone picked up some ski
terminology. Aside from the
"furshlugginer" and cotton pickin'
that ordinarily accompany college
students' conversations on such a
trip, such terms as Gelaendes
trung, which means "jumping over
an object while going downhill,"
sitzmark, a fall to the rear( there
were many of these), schuss, ski
ing straight downhill, track, "look

REGISTRATION went smoothly this semester. according to C. 0.
Williams, Dean of Admissions. .But bad weather delayed many
students from arriving in State College in time to see their advisors
and register. There were three new aspects of this year's registra
tion: a heated tent outside Recreation Hall, a dearth of salesmen
outside the building promoting memberships in activities (they
were outlawed by the University) and registrees with chin
whiskers.

Williams said, however, that
over 900 students registered Sat
urday, approximately 100 more
than usual. This could possibly
be attributed to the bad weather,
he said. He added that about 25
students registered late yesterday
by going to the Deans of their
Colleges.
Should Follow Instructions
"If students would follow the
registration instructions they re
ceive," Williams said, "and get to
out for me," ski heil, a skier's
toast, and a host of other terms
were intermingled.
The University was well repre
sented in the contests which were
held at the Bova Slopes in the Red
House area. Several of the con
testants completed with contes
tants from four other colleges. In
the slalom, Ronald Rowland
placed 6th, David Boucher 10th,
and Joseph Phillips 25th. Boucher
was 19th and Rowland 23rd in the
downhill races. In the women's
downhill races Patricia Farrell
