PENNSYLVANIA Key System To Change In Sparks Sparks Building, “o n e of the hardest buildings on campus to control as far as security goes,” will have a new key system by the end of the month, according to G. R. Trostly, key clerk. Ben Euwema, dean of the Lib eral Arts college, said this pre caution was necessary in order ‘to tighten up on security.” Keys have been lost and unauthorized people have found them and made dupli cates, he said. The new system will be an im provement over the old because it will provide for an unlimited num ber of combinations. Each room and Department of fice will be individually keyed. Faculty members will stll have ac cess to the building and to their offices after hours as before, but will not be able to get into the sec retaries’ offices. They must pick up their mail during the day. Trostle said thkt they have the materials and the new locks should be in operation before ex ,am time. Although there hasn’t been any trouble with examination papers being taken since the flare-up two years ago, Euwema said the new system will serve as a preventive measure. Euwema also said that the new system will prevent supplies from being taken. He mentioned that a $550 electric calculator was stol en from Sparks sometime between April 20-25. Borough police are still investigating the theft. Trostle did not know the exact cost of the re-keying, but estimat ed it to be somewhat under $5OOO.

Show man ager was William Phipps, eighth semester dairy science major. Complaints About Rain Are All Wet Does it really rain more at Penn State than at any other place in Pennsylvania? Students have been debating this question for years, while they stepped ankle-deep in puddles and felt the wind and rain in their hair. However, due to statistics. Dr. Charles L. Hosier, assistant pro fessor in Meteorology, says no. The average amount of rainfall during 1954 at State College was 41 inches. Harrisburg, in 1954, had 33 in ches. Philadelphia, 35 inches, Scranton, 35 inches. But Pitts burgh’s precipitation in 1954 amounted to 40 inches, Erie had 42 inches and Brookville, 43 in ches. This goes to prove that Penn State does not have a monopoly on rain. The amount of rain in creases as one goes from the east ern to the western part of the state. Since Penn State is a trans ition point between east and west, it’s just about in the middle of the road. So, if its any consolation, while you’re trudging off to the 8 o’- clock class in a downpour, stu dents at the University of Pitts burgh are also getting their own taste of liquid sunshine. Frosh Mixer Scheduled Arthur Schravesande, freshman class president, has announced a freshman class mixer from 2 to 5 p.m. next Friday in the Hetzel Union ballroom. Chuck Torrence and his orches tra will play at the mixer, which is open to all students.
