Neilson, manager of the three local theaters, said yesterday. The reason for the delay, Neilson explained, is due to legal procedures that must be followed , when a referendum of this sort is approved. Neilson said the theaters are obliged by law to wait for five days for the opposition, if there is any, to contest the elec tion. Accreditors Terminate Evaluation The school's evaluation pro gram officially closed yesterday when most of the 58 accreditors left the campus. A few stayed over until today to finish what they didn't have time to finish previously. The team will determine wheth er the University will remain an accredited university for the next 10 years. At that time the school will be evaluated again. Results Available in January The results of the visit will not be available to the University until January, after the individ ual member reports are compiled into one. The evaluators, who arrived Sunday, interviewed University officers, faculty members, and students, and visited classes. Students' were chosen at ran dom by college deans and depart ment heads to meet with the team in groups. • The team represents the offi cial accreditation organization in this area, the Middle States As sociation of Colleges and Second ary Schools. Determined Objectives In interviewing and 'attending classes, they attempted to deter mine how well the University's objectives are being carried out. How well objectives are carried out, and the objectives them selves, are the basis for the evalu-. ation, rather than whether or not the school's educational program reaches set standards.

This is the largest margin either way since the issue was first put on the ballot in 1947. 3 Precincts Vote Against Measure Threc of the six borough pre cincts voted against the measure. The south precinct, the largest in the borough, returned a 238-vote margin in avor of the referen dum. The Rev. Melvin Whitmire, who headed a group of nine ministers who voiced opposition to the mea sure in the election campaign, said yesterday that only time will determine the wisdom of the de cision. In a prepared statement, he said: "The folly or the wisdom of the decision to approve - Sunday mov ies will be validated by time, as will the clarification of whether they are peripheral or central to the moral and spiritual tone of our community." Opposes for Effect on Community He stressed the fact that he opposed the showing of Sunday movies only from the standpoint of their effect on the community and not the campus. The Rev. Whitmire said the out come of the vote has not changed his opinion of the issue but that he did not consider it a "preach ing issue." • In addition to the borough, Col lege Township • and Philipsburg also approved the measure.
