AIM Judicial Asks Delay
For Dining Hall Case
The Association of Independent Men's Judicial Board of
Review last night recommended to the dean of men's office
that a case involving misconduct in the Nittany dining.haß
be postponed Tanta a further meeting because of lack of evi
dence.
The board also recommended that a junior from the West
Bans be given judicial warning
,for creating a noisy disturbance
in the dormitory.
In the first case, the students
put forth a nearly complete refu
tation of the report of the coun
selor who reported the case to the
dean of men's office. The board.
felt that since the counselor was
not present at the meeting to give
his views on the case, it should
be postponed even though they
considered it to be one of a rather
minor nature.
Claimed Just Pushing Chairs
The students said that they had
been involved in an incident
whereby they were merely push
ing some chairs against one an
other in the dining hall when a
person came across the room and
demanded identification fr o m
them.

Look for Typewriters
Strong to Head Test
The federal government
General Services Administra
tion has named Dr. Earl P.
Strong, director of the Bur
eau of Business Research at
the University, to supervise
tests on the practicability' of
changing the arrangement of keys
on a typewriter.
The GSA is the government
agency which has control over
the buying and maintenance of
all government office equipment.
According to Dr. Strong,. the
tests will be conducted on both
the standard keyboard and a key
board which was developed by
August Dvorak, of the University
of Washington, in 1934.
At the conclusion of the experi
ment, which should end some
time in May, Dr. Strong said he
will make a report to the GSA.
If the report is favorable, the
government may decide to adopt
the Dvorak keyboard, he said.
The tests were drawn up earlier
this year by Dr. Strong.

They said they refused to give
Jheir identification because the
,person who accosted them did not
.Identif3r himself ha t merely
*owed some sort of identifca
tion card, which they did not get
a good look at.
The board notified Harold Per
kins, assistant to the dean at mak
'MS the matter. Perkins said the
stoodents vane in the wrong under
any circumstances, for not submit
,tiog to the counselor's questions.
Perkins also said that it should
have been evident to the two that
tihe man was a coonselen, since
student would have gone to the
:trouble of imitating a counselor.
'Mlro Tact—No Marie:?
! I The students maintained that
the counseke used no tact and no
manners in asking them for idea-
tification. They added that this
was their reason for giving the
man the negative attitude which
,they used- They said that he did
not identify himself verbally but
only gave that quick show of a
card which apparently was a card
identifying him as a representa
tive of the office of the dean of
men.
The student who was placed on
judicial warning will be placed
on the records of the judicial
board, but the incident will not
be placed on the student's perm
anent record.
Experiments with the Dvozak
keyboard had been conducted
by the inventor in 1934. Dz.
Strong said. These tests showed
the Dvorak keyboard to be 35
per cent more efficient than the
standard keyboesd. The present
tests will be the first to be con
ducted by an impartial group.
he said.
Dr. Strong conducted tests on
the Dvorak keyboard in 1941 for
the Civil Services Commission.
The tests were designed to find
out if typists could be retrained
to the same degree of efficiency
on the Dvorak keyboard as they
possessed on a standard type
writer. The experiments showed
that an average of two weeks was
required for a typist to make the
change.
The Dvorak keyboard, Dr.
Strong said, has all vowels
placed on the second row of
keys where the typists' fingers
normally rest. In addition, the

letters used most frequently are
positioned where they can be
struck with the fiibgess which
normally do the most work in a
typing operation.
Twelve governmental workers
will be selected to act as a control
group using the standard key
board, while 12 additional work
ers will use the Dvorak keyboard,
Dr. Strong said.
Starting in January. the group
working with the Dvorak key
board will begin receiving in
structions on the operation of
the new typewriter. When the
experimental group reaches the
speed and efficiency of th e
group typing with a standard
keyboard, the groups will then
be put through speed and effi
ciency tests. The results, Dr.
Strong said, will show if the
Dvorak keyboard increases pro
ductivity, and if so, by what
per cent.
LaVie Staff Pushes
To Meet Deadline
With one eye on the fast moving calendar and the other
on previously won honors and awards, the 1955 LaVie staff
is hurrying to meet its February deadline.
LaVie, the University yearbook, was first published in
1889. It has been distributed to seniors every year since then
except during the war when the publication was stopped by
the paper shortage.
Plans for the 1955 issue were
started last March. At that time
an outlined description of the
book's contents was sent to a
commercial artist who drew up
a page-by-page layout of the
book.
Romig Beads $ Staffs
Following the layout, the three
staffs of LaVie, headed by Fred
erick Romig, editor, wrote arti
cles, scheduled pictures and are
now assembling the material ac
cording to the artist's plans.
The cover of the book is de
signed by the 15 members of the
senior board, who are also re
sponsible for editing and copy
ading the articles. The senior
board also serves as an advisory
group for the sophomore and jun
ior boards-.
Adviser:. for LaVie are Andrew
W. Case, professor is fine arts,
who has. been art adviser for 27
years, and lifoodrovr.lNr.
sews sudsiest for Public Infer
nsation, who as editorial adviser,
!checks the book before it goes
to the printer:
• Zmaperabbms Brainasaire
"The cooperation of the senior i
class is necessary if we are to
meet our deadline," Bierly said;
."One student' failing to report to
have his _picture taken at the
scheduled time can upset our
printing- date's
Assembling the material is not
the staffs' only job. Thousands of
pictures kaye to be scheduled and
collected.
Lacrosse, baseball, and golf
pictures must be posed for the
sports section, since these sea
sons are over when LaVie is sent
to press. Also, mailing lists of
seniors graduating in January
must be compiled and copies
mailed to each.
Divided Into 5 Sections
This year's LaVie, which will
cost nearly $l4 a copy to produce,
will be divided into five main
scctions—seniors, administration,
athletics, activities, and organiza
tion:. Approximately 2.700 copies
will be printedL.
For the past six years LaVie
has been, rated among the best
college yearbooks by the Asso
ciated Collegiate Press, and in
1951 was named the All-Ameri
can Yearbook.
