Two Nittany
Given Office
Two freshmen from the Nittany area will be placed on
office probation and given judicial warning, the dean of

The students received probation for causing a disturbance
in the Nittany dining hall last week. The decision was handed
down Tuesday night by the Association of Independent Men’s
Judicial Board at Review and was
approved yesterday by the dean
of men’s office.
Tuesday night's closed bearing
session, was the second in the
case, which was first heard last
week. The case was deferred byi
the board because the counselor;
involved in the case was not pre
sent to give his version of the
case.

Freshmen
Probation
At first the students main
tained that they caused only a
minor disturbance involving the
pushing back and forth of chain
in the dining hall.
Hastila Attitude
They said that they adopted a
hostile attitude toward the coun
selor because of the way he ap
proached them in questioning
their actions. In the students*
opinion, the counselor used no tact
in asking than for identification
and did not identify himself as a
representative of the dean of
men's office.
The board decided that since
there was a difference of opinion
between students and the coun
selor in the case, they should de
fer a decision on the case until
all sides of the story were heard.
Closed Hearing
At Tuesday night’s closed ses
sion, the board heard the coun
selor’s story, the students’ version
and an account of the happening
from another student who ob
served the event.
Harold Perkins, assistant dean
of men, explained the board’s un
usual procedure of hearing the
case in closed session by pointing
out that it was a case of judg
ment of the word of the counselor
against the. word of the student.
Perkins said the students were
at fault in creating the distur

Two
Run
Richard "Doc” Dougherty, a fifth semester industrial
management major from Syracuse, N.Y., decided there were
too piany open spaces in his schedule when he registered last
Fall. So he opened a service station “to fill in the extra time.’*
This "spare time” plus a genuine love for mechanical
work and a need for “a few extra
bucks to keep the wives happy”
were the ingredients from which
was born the “Student Service
Station,” located simply, “by the
duck pond.”
Originally the project of four
students, two of whom dropped
out of school soon after work
began, the student-operated serv
ice center is now run exclusively
by Dougherty and Nick Spang
ler, formerly a fourth semester
metallurgy major who was forced
to drop out of school this semes
ter because of an operation.
Schedule Divided
Dougherty, who only has class
es scheduled Mondays, Wednes
days. and Fridays, works from
opening to closing, 7:30 am. to
7 pm. each Tuesday, Thursday,
and Saturday. Spangler works
from 7:30 am. to S pm. each Mon
day, Wednesday and Friday, at
which time he is relieved by
Dougherty, who works till 7.
However, this schedule is not
followed exclusively.
“Many times we both work to
gether when its possible, and we
adjust the schedule according to
how much class work ‘Doc’ has,”
Spangler said.
Opening the station was Dough
erty's idea, Spangler said. Dough
erty also supplied the capital by
means of a personal loan and

some of his own funds.
After three weeks of prepara
tion the Student Service Station
was officially opened Nov. S.
Since that time expenses have
broken down roughly to |UO per
month for rent, gas and an inven
tory of stock, ami "a tremendous
overhead -for Uttle things like
tools and signs” according to
Spangler. “It took only about $5OO.
to begin the business,** Spangler
said, “but the biggest expense is
keeping it going.”
Spangler estimated it would
take about three months to catch
up with expenses.
“Then we’ll really begin mak
ing money," he said.
Both Spangler and Dougherty
are married and are veterans.
Fanner Station Attendant
Dougherty formerly worked as
a service station attendant In
Syracuse, and hr Texas, where he
served part of his four years in
the Air Force.
The service station remains
open during vacations and the
summer months, since both men
now make their homes in State
College and attend summer ses
sions.
Both Dougherty and Spangler
intend to . run the station until
they graduate, at which time they
expect to turn its operation over
to other students.
