No. 5 New Seating Plan Announced Tribunal OK's Hours Penalties for Men Tribunal members voted unanimously last night to ex periment with restricted hours as an additional form of judi cial punishment for male undergraduate students. Under the new setup, a student would be required to stay in his dormitory or place of residence.during the evening hours. The restricted hours and the length of the restricted period would be determined by the severeness of the case, according to Karl Schwenzfeier, Tribunal chairman. Ho Frosh Cars Seen On Campus The Campus Patrol has thus far Received no reports of freshmen students driving cars on campus or in the borough. Under a regulation passed by the Council of Administration last Monday, any freshman appre hended with his car on campus or in the borough, will be suspend ed from the University for a se mester. - The regulation went into effect last Monday. All other traffic rules went onto effect yesterday, allowing students a day of? grace, according to Frank J. Sitnes, dean of men. The regulation banning fresh man cars was passed last spring by the council of administration, as a partial solution to the park ing problem. There are more cars than parking spaces on campus. This, is the first year freshman cars have been prohibited. Commuting and physically handicapped freshmen may apply for exemption from the auto rule only if they do not plan to drive cars on campus or in the borough for pleasure. Women students, except for eighth semester students and those given temporary' approval, are also not allowed to keep cars at the University. Those wanting to keep autos for short periods of time must receive prior permis sion from the dean l 'of women.

SEPTEMBER 21, 1955 Schwenzfeier said that the pun ishment would be considered by Tribunal to be a "serious one.” Tribunal Would Check Spot checks by members of Tri bunal would be made to see that the student obeys his punishment. The plan would' have to be worked largely on the honor sys tem, Schwenzfeier said. "The new system would not cut out the student’s extra-curricular activities,” he said, "but it would keep him in (his place of resi dence) in the evenings.” He said the student could pre sent a schedule of his evening ac tivity hours to Tribunal for ap proval and be granted permission to participate. “It would penalize him in one way, yet help him in his studies,” he added.. Details Not Worked Out Exact details were not worked out because of the fact that each casa*;would have to be. handled ■differently, SCUtvenzfeier pointed out. The idea of restricted hours was discussed by the committee on regulations, controls, and their enforcements at Student En campment. Schwenzfeier was a member of the committee. Schwenzfeier added that the punishment would be adminis tered when "wise to use it.” “I would like to try it ... to see hpw it works out,” he added. Restricted hours are now more for punishment of undergraduate women. at the meeting was Harold W. Perkins, assistant deem of men, who explained the work of his office in connection with Tribunal. Perkins told Tribunal mem bers to make their own decisions in cases and not to make recom mendations just to please his of fice. Tribunal has not heard a case so far this semester.

Peron Hides Aboard Paraguayan Boat (/P) —In a cold rain, Juan D- P e r o n took refuge today aboard a Paraguayan gunboat in Buenos-Aires harbor. The rebels whose revolt shattered his 10-year dictatorship demanded that the fallen dicta tor-president be intercepted and arrested. Political asylum is high ly regarded in Latin America, however, and this increased Per on’s chances for escape to neigh boring Paraguay. It seemed obvious that the mil-: itary junta now in control, in cluding some of Peron’s asso ciates, had made no air-tight ar rangements to prevent Peron’s FOR A BETTER PENN STATE Frosh Beware!

The junta, meanwhile, was un dertaking peace talks with the rebels. The government radio an nounced that a delegation of the junta left Rio Santiago Naval Base to meet a group of the rebel command. The talks are taking place aboard the cruiser Argen tina. A tense situation brewed in the capital. Anti-Peronistas triumph antly paraded through the streets, ripping down portraits of. Peron, toppled in a four-day revolution. For a time there was little sign of the bully-boy shock trodps of street brawlers who sprang to Peron’s aid in past crises. But during the morning; about 100 Peronistas began their own Mtatt Row, Seat Assignments Disregarded Under Setup Editorial on Page'Four A compromise football seating plan, which will replace the reserved seat setup announced last week, will go into effect beginning with the opening game Saturday, according to Ernest B. McCoy, director of athletics. McCoy announced the new plan yesterday. Under the new setup, students must honor only the sec tion printed on the special tickets distributed at registration. The row and seat number printed on the tickets may be disregarded Students must enter Beaver Field stands through the gate leading to their assigned section, McCoy said. The new plan is the result of conferences between All-Univer sity president Earl Seely; Doug las Moorhead, president of the Athletic Association; Harold R. Gilbert, assistant director of ath letics. and McCoy. McCoy Defends Old Plan McCoy said his office had “no intention” of preventing students from sitting together. He also said the original reserved seat plan would not have prevented students from sitting with friends in their class. He explained that students could have gone to Recreation Hall at registration time to re ceive seats together. “Difficulty arose in not getting this informa tion to all students in time before registration,” he said. McCoy added that hundreds of students asked for, and were given, seats together. The reserve seat plan, which was met by a roar of disapproval from the student body when it was announced last week, was set up, according to McCoy, for two reasons: 1. Because student leaders .last year complained about section hopping and asked for a guaran tee of a seat being. available in their section when they arrived at the game. 2. In order that the Athletic Association may determine the actual number of unused seats, if any, that might be available for sale to the public and alumni. Section* EG to NB “After registration, we discov ered that all seats from sections EG to NB were taken up solidly by student demand. Consequent ly, there will be no tickets sold to the public in these'sections, and, contrary to other announce ments, there have been no tickets sold in these sections,” McCoy said. “This plan is essentially the same as in past years, and any section-hopping is a problem that I believe firmly can be handled by student government . . . and the pride of the student in disci plined conduct,” he commented. “If there is section-hopping and disorderly conduct (among the students), we will 'have to revert to the reserved seats,” McCoy added. demonstration, marching down the Avenida de Mayo shouting “Peron, Si: Otro, No! Peron, Yes: Others, No! At the corner of Florida street they were dispersed by police without clashes or casualties. But this was the first pro-Peron de monstration since., the rebellion erupted Friday. There was still speculation about what the pow erful labor organization forces of Peron might do in this situation. Peron’s escape to the Paragua yan gunboat, which in effect is Paraguayan territory, was an nounced by Juan R. Chavez, the Paraguayan ambassador here. He also reported Ildefonso Cavagna Martinez, foreign minister in Per on’s government, had taken re fuge in the Paraguayan embassy. Seating Plan— See Page 4 Seely Asks Cooperation At Games The following statement, asking for student cooperation at Penn State football games, was issued by Earl Seely, All-University President, last night. The state ment was released in conjunction with the announcement of the compromise seating plan to go in to effect at Beaver Field this year. “The seating policy has been modified as explained in this is sue of the Daily Collegian. I have expressed to Dean Ernest B. Mc- Coy and his staff that I am con vinced that we, the members of the student body, can and will take it- upbh-ourselves to -elim* inate section jumping which was one of the primary reasons for the proposed reserve seating plan. "I ask you to eliminate the situation caused by section jumping, and to co-operate with the Centennial year program of the Athletic Association by conducting yourselves as re sponsible Penn State students have proven themselves capable of doing in the past. Let's keep in mind that the misconduct of a few casts an adverse reflec tion on the entire student body. “The Director of Athletics and his staff have done all that they possibly can in order that we might attend the games, sit with our friends, and still be able to cope with the problems which will be created by capacity crowds at Beaver Field. "They have co-operated with us; now let's cooperate with them and by doing so set an example for the Freshman class as well as the classes that will follow. Let's dust off the old Penn State spirit and show the alumni that it still exists!" —Student Body President Draft Call Reaches 1464 Pennsylvania state selective service headquarters issued a draft call of 1464 men for the month of November, yesterday.
