University Budget
Awaits Senate OK
A $25,194,000 budget for the current two-year fiscal, per
iod of the University is lying dormant awaiting approval by
the State Senate.
The budget was approved by the House of Representa
tives on Friday and was sent on to the Senate, which recessed
Tuesday. It will reconvene Monday, according to s Jo Hays,
Centre County representative to
the General Assembly.
The budget is approximately $5
million more than that of the
last two years. It faces possible
reduction if the Senate carries
out its current plan of cutting
about $33 million from the $535
million bill for public instruction.
Referred to Committee
The bill is expected by legisla
tors to be referred to the Senate’s
finance committee. Final action
would await the committee re
port.
The appropriation figure for
the University was defended on
Aug. 16 by President Milton S.
Eisenhower at a Senate commit
tee hearing on appropriations.
When asked whether the bud
get included any items which
could be eliminated, Dr. Eisen
hower said, “I’ve been building
budgets for 30 years and I’ve
never put any fat in them yet.”
He added, “I do not think it can
possibly be reduced.”
'Salaries Are Low*
He said at one point, in explain
ing his position, that the Univer

building. The meeting will be
open to the public.
Purpose of the proposal to re
vise CPIC is to take an over bur
den of work off the nine council
presidents who compose the com
mittee. An additional board
would be formed or the council
vice presidents would share in
the work, according to the pro
posal.
The revision was recommended
by the committee on student gov
ernment at the 1955 Encamp
ment.
To Reinstate Groups
Jack Riggs, Campus Chest
chairmen, said last night he will
ask Cabinet to reinstate the three
religious organizations and the
Red Cross' in the October drive.
Steps to remove the groups from
the campaign were started last
semester when Cabinet accepted
a report which included a recom
mendation to that effect.
Rev. Luther H. Harshbarger,
University chaplain, said yester
day in a letter to Riggs the three
organizations had agreed to en
ter Campus Chest with two stipu
lations. He requested that the
“unfavorable” report submitted
to Cabinet last semester be re
voked and that a policy making
board composed of representa
tives from participating Chest or
ganizations be set up.
Constitutional Provisions
The present constitution makes
provisions for a board of trustees
of three representatives from
each group participating in Cam
pus Chest and for a committee of
seven students, including the gen
eral chairman, ..to organize, and
execute the drive. ~
After Campus Chest was form
ed four years ago, the trustees
or policy making board operated
for only one year. Now, Riggs, as
general chairman, heads a com
mittee of 12 other chairmen plus
a secretary and an assistant. -
Participation of the three re
ligious organizations in the drive
will have to be confirmed next
week by the Hillel Foundation,
Rev. Harshbarger’s letter states.
The letter will be read before
Cabinet tonight, Riggs said.
The 1955 Campus Chest drive
will be held Oct. 18 through 21,
Riggs said.
sity’s salaries are low compared
to land grant colleges in the mid
west. “In fact,” he declared,
“we’re at the bottom of the list.”
The bill, submitted by Reps. J.
Dean Polen (D-Wash.) and Nor
man Wood (R-Lanc.) was for the
exact amount Gov. George M.
Leader requested in his budget
message to the legislature last
April.
Specifically, the bill provides
for:
1. Maintenance and instruction
—524,783,000.
2. A g r i culture experiments—
slso,ooo.
3. Petroleum research and ex
periments—s66,ooo.
4. Coal research—s7o,ooo, with
that sum to be matched by the
anthracite and bituminous indus
tries.
5. Non-metal mineral indus
tries—s3s,ooo.
6. Long range mineral indus
tries—s32,soo.
7. Matching funds for mineral
industries research—ss7,soo.

Marciano KO's Moore
With Left Hook in 9th
Rocky Marciano last night
once again displayed the fistic
power that catapulted him to
the world's heavyweight cham
pion throne, knocking out
boastful challenger Archie
Moore with a solid left hook

A Yankee Stadium crowd of
over 50.000 witnessed Marci

professional b' ting win with

him in action for the last time.
Marciano was reported to have

should he win, he would retire
from the ring.
However, immediately fol

quoted as saying. "It was a

Lonardi Replaces
Peron In Argentina
BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 21 (fl s )—Maj. Gen. Eduardo Lon
ardi, a long-time foe of Peronism, emerged today as Argen
tina’s new leader.
Lonardi takes over as provisional president tomorrow,
flying here from Cordoba where he helped mastermind the
four-day revolt that ousted Peron.
The loyalist junta which took
over the central government in
Peron’s wake surrendered to the
rebels today under a peace agree
ment. So far as can be deter
mined, the surrender was uncon
ditional, but there were signs that
members of the junta, including
some of Peron’s supporters, re
main factors to be reckoned with.
Lonardi is a veteran artillery
man the same age as Peron—s 9.
He has hated Peron for years,
friends say, and in 1951 retired
from the army amid a dispute
over the abortive proposal to
make Mrs. Peron the vice presi
dent.
Rumors as to Peron’s fate were
a dime a dozen today, but the
best available information was
that the deposed dictator-presi-

more than 110 faculty members.

I When completed, the building
will house facilities for closed
circuit television. The lower end
of the C will contain a television
broadcasting room on the first
.floor. The TV room, as now
planned, will house an audience,
and the televised programs will
be sent to specified rooms in the
building.
The building will contain a
new innovation for separate class
room movie projection'. In cer
tain areas of the classroom sec
tion, two rooms will be divided
by a thin movie projection room.
Each projection room will con
tain a projector on swivels,
capable of showing movies in
either of the adjoining' rooms.
This will eliminate the need- for
moving the projectors from room
to room.

the College of Education, certain
sections on the first, second, and
third floors of the building will
