storage tank will be installed at
the University before the end

on Ag Hill, near the parking area
north of Patterson Hall.

ed to supplement the University
water supply and increase water
storage facilities as the demand
for water on the campus con

been let to the Pittsburgh-Des
Moines Steel Co., Pittsburgh.

fore the end of the year.

Carlsson turned down the IFC
scholarship because he would
have had to wait at least a year
before applying for admission to
the University.
The reason for the delay was
that Carlsson does not have a
high school diploma, required by
the University for admission.
According to R. E. Tschan, col
lege examiner, it had been sug
gested to Carlsson that he at
tempt to obtain a diploma in a
year and then apply for admis
sion.
In Sweden, Carlsson had com
pleted the equivalent of a ninth
grade education, according to
Tschan. If he intended to eater a
Swedish university, he would
have had to attend another three
years of high school.
However, Tschan said the gym
nastic champion might have been
able to get _ a diploma from an
American high school in a year
because European standards of
education are generally accepted
to be higher than those' in
America.
When Carlsson appeared at the
University with the Swedish Na
tional Gymnastic team in January
he was interviewed by Uhiver
sity officials and, according to
John Carpenter, IFC president,
was considering attending State
College High School or a high
school in Erie.
However, when the team ap
peared at lowa University in Feb
ruary, Carls son was told he could
enroll at the conclusion of the
tour. The tour ended March 4.
Gene Wettstone, gymnastics
coach, had no comment to make
yesterday.
Tschan said Carlsson could not
have been admitted by examina
tion, because University policy
does not allow it.
The IFC scholarship would
have covered ro. m and board ex
penses. Carlsson had also been
offered a presidential scholarship
to cover the cost of tuition .

AIM Recommends
4 Student Penalties
The Association of Independent Men Judicial Board of Review
last night recommended office and judicial probation for four second
semester students to the dean of men’s office. Two of the students
received office probation and the other two received judicial pro
bation.
The first two students up before the board admitted that they
exploded firecrackers on the night
of March 3 in the court at the
side of Hamilton Hall. The stu
dents said that they had tired of
studying and had decided to ig
nite the firecrackers and throw
them out the window.
The students had denied any
knowledge of the incident when
questioned immediately after
throwing, the firecrackers, but the
next morning they, told the true
story to the dorm counselors.
The students said they were
unaware of the State and Uni
versity regulations banning the
use of firecrackers or any similar
form of explosive.
One student said that while he
was living in the Nittany dormi
tory area firecrackers were a
common occurrence and that no
students of his knowledge were
ever reprimanded; He said this
was one of the reasons why he
thought throwing firecrackers
wasn’t a serious offenses
The board recommended office
probation for the pair; which if
approved, will put a record of
this Incident in the-judicial rec
ords but no permanent record
Will be made. The .rule further
states that the accused will -have
to make visits to the'- dean of
men's office at set intervals.
The other cases brought before
the board pertained to students’
drinking alcoholic beverages and
then beipg boisterous in the
dormitories. The twd students
accused, were said to have, ap-

friends when the dormitory coun
selor saw them. In his report the
counselor stated that the students
were not particularly noisy but
were , a disturbing Influence on
the floor The board in discussing
the matter found the statement
rather ambiguous in setting forth
the manner in which the stu
dents did cause a disturbing in
fluence on the floor. 1
After further deliberation it
was decided to recommend judi
cial probation for the students,
which, if approved, would require
the students to report to the AIM
Judicial Board at certain times.
No permanent record of the case
will be filed.
