I the ban to facilitate street clean
ing. ice removal in the winter,
and possible fire congestion.
Martini said as parking lot
spaces become filled, parking lot
owners will raise prices to stu
dents.
Robert Seyler. AIM freshman
car screening committee chair
man, said if the ban goes into;
effect the borough will be throw-]
ing the parking problem at the
University.

He said one of the reasons the
University bans freshman cars is
to alleviate the parking problem
in the borough.
In other legislation, the board
approved a policy statement con
taining two major revisions for
the AIM band.
The AIM band will play a max
imum of five engagements each
year for AIM and its councils.
West Halls, Nittany, Pollock, and
TIM at their own request.
Will Cost $35
The five engagements will cost
the councils $35 each.
AIM and its councils may
schedule other dances with the
band but at a cost of $l5O each.'
Seyler said the revision en
ables band members to earn addi
tional money playing weekends
at other engagements.
Last year, he said, band mem
bers were forced to cancel pre
vious engagements to perform for
the councils often at very short
notice.
Another revision provides for
the creation of -an AIM dance
committee to handle all business,
scheduling, and records for the
band.
Engagements will be scheduled

ler said.

Committee Sets Up
Year-Long Program
For Campus Chest
A long-range series of events to extend for the entire
school year is being planned by Campus Chest committee
members.
The focal spot of the Chest’s activities is the solicitations
drive scheduled for Nov. 12 to 16.
Proceeds from the drive will be contributed to World Uni-
versity Service, American Heart
Association, Pennsylvania Cere
bral Palsy, American Cancer So
ciety, and Penn State Student
Scholarship Fund.
The charities were chosen be
cause they would probably affect
more University students over a
greater period of time than other
organizations. Robert Gellman,
chairman, said.
Trophies To Be Awarded
Trophies will be awarded to the
fraternity, sorority, and individ
ual solicitor who collects the
greatest amount of money per
capita.
The American Heart Associa
tion, American Cancer Society
and World University Service
have been contacted to aid in
planning advertising campaigns
for the drive.
The committee currently plans
to have one solicitor contact 15
Univerity students. A solicitations
meeting will be held Nov. 7 and 8
in the Hetzel Union ballroom lo
outline the Campus Chest pro
gram to the solicitors and to teach
them techniques in approaching
students.
In previous years, the annual
contributions campaigns have
been the main source of revenue
for the Campus Chest. This year,
Gellman said, the committee is
planning a more diversified
schedule of events.
Suggestions Received at Meeting
Suggestions received at a Tues
day night meeting for year-round
projects included open house at
fraternities with admission being
charged, poster contests. “Mile of
Dimes," in downtown State Col
lege or on the Mall, films, and
girls, serving as waitresses at
fraternities.
A traveling agent from the
World University Service is
scheduled to speak to Campus
Chest personnel during the next
few weeks.
It was suggested that graduate
students who are living in dormi-j
tories be contacted for contribu-;
tions: ■ during the solicitations
drive.
Solicitation from town women
will be collected by Gamma Sig-j
ma, national service sorority. The
town women program is in charge
