The total sales at the same time last year were approximately $lOO,OOO.

PENNSYLVANIA Students refusing to vacate such quarters will not be allowed to register for the semester after the one in which the declaration of hazard was made, the Trustees ruled. Upon being informed that a building is declared a hazard, the University, Trustees ruled, will notify the students residing there and also their parents or guard ians. The Alpha Fire Co. of State College in February began a check of fraternity houses and business places. The inspection will continue next week with rooming houses. and later, but not this spring, will extend to pri vate homes. When the inspection began. Town Independent Men submit ted a list of ten rooming houses where students reported they be lieved fire hazards existed. Thomas Sauers, fire chief, said yesterday that to date they have found fewer fire hazards than an ticipated. He also reported co operation on the part of owners in correcting hazards noted. One chief hazard noted by the volunteer firemen has been over loading of electrical circuits, Sau ers said. Wilmer E. Kenworthy, director of student affairs, said yesterday that "if and when reports are made which lead Borough offi cials or state officers to declare any dwelling unsafe, it v•ouid be unwise for us to allow students to continue to live there, even though they might be willing to do so." ICG Group to Elect Council Tonight The Penn State chapter of the Intercollegiate Confer ence on Government will meet at 7 to night in 217 Ifetzel Union to hear an annual report and to elect a three-member Interim Council to serve as plural executive until the group's second meeting in the fall. tions for fraternities, to request' some suggestions for the improve-1 ment of the program here at thel University. Some of those insti tutions with successful programs, are Stanford University, Ohio; State University, University of' Wisconsin, and the University of Michigan. A marked problem of FMA is trying to interest the fraternities in the program. This problem was discussed at some length and sev eral suggestions were made and noted for future plans. 1 & \ ~ ....-....,, Faculty Club Hears Talk On Pakistan Pakistan is a "very steadfast ally of American and western bloc countries," Cyrus E. French, professor of animal nutrition, told the Faculty Luncheon Club yes terday. French recently was a member of a survey team which traveled to Pakistan and Iran to determine the nutritional conditions in Pak istan's armed forces. One team made the study in' Iran, and the other in Pakistan. French said. Each group included eight Americans. Team Members Travel The team members traveled from one large city to another working in army and navy posts, he explained. French spent three months in Pakistan, and there he heard John Foster Dulles. secretary of state, speak at a SEATO conference ses sion. Twenty-four colored slides of western Pakistan were shown to illustrate the lecture, which was attended by approximately 50 faculty members. One of the guests at the lunch eon was Jamila Khalid, a grad uate student in home economics from Pakistan. Forestry Director to Speak Maurice K. Goddard. director of the school of forestry, and state secretary of forests and waters, will speak at next week's faculty luncheon. His topic will be "Forests and Waters." This meeting will con clude the luncheon program un til next fall, it was announced. Two Scholarships Created for Frosh Two freshman scholarships for $5OO and 5250 have been estab lished at the University by busi ness concerns. Bituminous Coal Research In corporated of Washington D.C. has established a $5OO scholarship for a male freshman interested in the field of fuel technology on the basis of scholarship, character, and need. The Pittsburgh section of TV Guide has established a $250 scholarship in the School of the Arts for a freshman interested in a career in television on the same basis. One trustee suggested that it may be possible for FMA to be represented on some of the fra ternity councils to meet with the fraternities. They would thereby have the opportunity to discuss the purposes and possible advan tages that FMA would approach all the fraternities without call ing a special meeting. The next meeting of the board of trustees will be held at 8 p.m. May 23 at the home of Mrs. Marion F. Keister. Column Right, Harch!

Student Tutoring Service Offers Help in 5 7 Courses There are some students that get 4.0 averages and then there are the other kind. It is the other kind that the new student tutoring service sponsored by the dean of men's office is aimed at. The service, instituted a few weeks ago by a committee head ed by William B. Crafts, assist ant to the dean of men, offers help in 57 courses, anything from accounting to zoology. A list of tutors and courses was given to dormitory counselors and housemothers who in turn announced the plan to their groups. Also, a list is available in the dean of men's office. How ever. Dean Crafts said that there has been little use of the list, so far, and he hoped more students would ask for help. Tutors were accepted if they wished to tutor the subject they are majoring in and if they had a B average in all their subjects.
