High school students who will take part in the counseling
program administered by the Student Advisory Service this
summer will have more time to acquaint themselves with the
University in the fall, Ray V. Watkins, scheduling officer,
said yesterday.
Under the optional program which is new this year,
Airline Service
To East, West
To Be Continued
Air transportation from the
State College area to Cleveland
and Philadelphia will be contin
ued for at least one more year.
The Civil Aeronautics Board
yesterday extended for one year
the experiment of Allegheny Air
lines in developing satisfactory
east- west service for cities on its
route in the state, according to
the Associated Press.
Cities Keep Service
The extension of th e service
will mean continued service for
Oil Cit y, Franklin, Clearfield,
Philipsburg, Dußois, and Belle
fonte, besides State College and
University Park.
A spokesman for th e airline
said last night that the service to
these two points has not been so
great as it was expected when it
was started last April, but that
the service was sufficiently en
couraging to merit continuation
for at least another year.
Pending Next April
Again next April the airline
will have to apply to the board
if the experimental service is to
be extended or put on a full-time
basis.
The spokesman. stationed at
Black Moshannon Airport at Phil
ipsburg, said about 5 per cent of
the bookings on the run last year
were from University students.

students who will enter the Uni
versity in the fall can take tests
normally administered during
•rientation Week. The tests will
be administered in 20 Pennsyl
vania cities and will cost $17.50.
Do In Spare Time
In answer to what the students
who take the program will do
with spare time during Orienta
tion Week, Watkins said there
will be more appointments with
advisers to arrange schedules. In
addition, he said that more cam
pus trips will be arranged and
more time will be given the stu
dents so they may orient them
selves. Most students can acquaint
themselves with the University
if they are given the time to do
so, he said.
Most Advisory Sessions
The increased number Of ad
visory sessions will tie in with
the counseling program, Watkins
said. The aim of the program is
to help eliminate student failures
by correcting deficiencies before
the students get to the Univer
sity.
The program will also try to
eliminate problems arising from
students enrolling in curriculums
in which they are not interested.
By scheduling more meetings
with an adviser, Watkins said, a
student can help avoid enrolling
in courses which will do him no
good.
The counseling program will
begin May 21 and continue Mon
days and Fridays until August 31.

Charlie Mingus Jazz Quintet
To Give 2 Concerts Tonight
Charlie Mingus and the Jazz Workshop Quintet with vocalist
Chris Connor will present two concerts at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. to
night in Schwab Auditorium.
Reserved seat tickets are available at the Hetzel Union desk
$1.50. The concert will be sponsored by the Jazz Club.
In the 1956 poll results of the
outstanding musician on each in
strument, Mingus with his string
bass was placed second by Metro
nome and third by Downbeat,
music magazines.
Vocalist Sang with Kenton
Miss Connor was formerly with
the Stan Kenton band, and at
that time replaced June Christy.
She is no longer affiliated with a
band, and has been termed the
vocalist "with the urgent style."
Theodore Richards, jazz club
adviser, said that "this concert
will probably have more intel
lectual appeal than any other be
cause Mingus and Miss Connor
both work from an exploratory
point of view. They experiment
to see what can be developed to
morrow that wasn't today."
Mingus has played with the
bands of Louis Armstrong, Lionel
Hampton, Duke Ellington, Red
Norvo, Charlie Parker, Stan Getz,
Bud Powell and Hazel Scott.
Technique Described
Part of the Mingus technique,
according to Vogue, fashion maga
zine. depends on his revision of
old fingering systems, a change
comparable to Andre Segovia's
broadening of the guitar's scope.
Among Mingus' numbers are
"Jump, Monk," a theme dedi
cated to Thelonious Monk: "All
the Things in C Sharp" and play
ed with "All the Things You Are"
against the theme; and "Lady
Bird," described as "a study in
dynamics for the average public."
