STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Lion to Seek Veteran Plank In Platform Thomas Emerick, president of the newly-formed and unchartered Veterans' Club, brought up three veterans' "gripes" before a meet ing of the Lion. party steering committee Sunday afternoon. The steering committee in"- structed the platform committee to include on the party platform a complaint on freshman driving. Two other complaints were _re ferred to the platform committee for consideration as planks. Th platform committee is to report back this week. Emerick cited •as the major complaint of veterans the dis puted question of allowing fresh man veterans •over 21 to drive cars on campus or in the bormigh. He said that over 200 veterans voiced a protest over the driving regulation at a meeting,Thurs day night. The regulatin ,pro hibits all freshmen from driving cars on campus. Veterans are also protesting the requiring of them - to take' physi cal education training during their freshman and sophomore years, Emerick said. These one credit courses are required of all freshmen and sophomores at the University. The veterans claim that since they have completed at least two years training in the Armed Forces there is no reason why they should take "meaning less" physical education instruc tion. The third complaint of Univer sity veterans concerns the final deadline for payment of deferred registration fees. Veterans of the Korean battles receive their pay ment checks one day after the deadline of Nov. 19—a day exact ly two months after completion of regular fall registration. Eme rick said that several veterans need the check payment in order to pay their fees. The platform committee first accepts the complaint as a plank, then it must then be submitted to Elections Committee for final approval.

Seastone Tells IFC FMA May Dissolve The Fraternity. Marketing Association may be faced with dissolvement in the near future, John Seastone, student mem ber of the FMA board of trustees, told Interfraternity Council last night. Seastone. told IFC that in order to continue operating, fraternities at the University FMA must have a majority o under contract. If FMA _folds, Leastone continued, fraternities at the University will suffer in the long run. FMA has acted as a buying agent for member fraternities. The group secures discounts for members on prices of canned goods, meats, and ,furniture. Prices Will RIM If FMA folds, competition iii State College will cease, Seastone said. Prices will rise. Discounts from FMA will.. be lost, as will discounts from food vendors des ing directly with non-FMA frat ernities. However, he said, fraternities can benefit greatly through in creased FMA membership. • At the present - time, with 23 member fraternities, FMA is ob taining discounts of 3 to 4 per cent. If present FMA membership were increased to 45 or 50, the discount could be raised to 8 per cent, he said. In the future.. with FMA acting as the sole buying agent for fraternities at the Uni versity, Seastone said discounts could reach 14 per cent. _Hanes Must Discuss FMA In an attempt to solve the FMA question, IFC passed a motion di recting representatives to discuss FMA at ther chapter meetings. The chapters must then turn in a - Written answer to IFC by No vember 14 stating whether or not they wish to join FMA. In other action, IFC decided to award two trophies to houses with high scholarship. Previously, a single trophy had been awarded to the house with the highest All- University average. One trophy will be awarded to fraternities in the "social" cate gory. A second trophy will be given to the hotise with the high est average in the "social-profes sional" grouping. TO qualify for the latter group, fraternities must have 50 per cent or more of their members in one college or school of the University. Interest L Poor Pool. interest in IFC scholar ship was given as the reason for he change .in scholarship awards by Donald . Byerly, IFC scholar ship chairan. Byerly said he hoped the new system would in crease interest in scholarship. IFC also voted to prohibit pledging of a man who hasn't registered for rushing in the dean of men's office. Daniel Land, IFC rushing chairman, told the meet ing there were too many men pledged by fraternities without IFC knowledge. Under the new system, Land said, a record could be kept of where a student is pledging. By making registration a must, frat ernities would also be aided in their rushing programs, Land added.
