STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Building, approaching completion of half of the new coed halls, and other work predict the new look the campus will have next fall. The Boucke Building will stand completed across from the Hetzel Union Building. Most of the ex terior is now completed and painters have begun on the front portion. Painting to Begin Since plastering on the inside is close to finished, painting will soon begin there. The only plas tering work remaining is the fourth floor corridor and the two large lecture rooms. Two of the four new coed resi dence halls will also be ready for the fall semester. Original plans called for all four to be ready, but weather and labor difficul ties made a rescheduling neces sary. The split-level buildings will house 1064 women residents when all four are completed. Each of the new buildings will contain two sorority lounges, a large recreation room, a common lounge and four study lounges, in addition to the well-appointed living rooms. The four-building quadrangle will have a main dining building at its center. Access to it will be gained through covered walks from each of the four residence halls. Eight Units Each building will have twoj units, making a total of eight. They are to be named Haller,! Lyons, Hibbs, Stephen, Ewing, Cross, Cooper and Hoyt. Strolling students will also be sidetracked at times by spraying operations of the landscape di vision of the Department of Phys ical Plant. But the spraying will mean that! students will not be plagued next fall by the odor around Sparks Building and the Pattee Library. By spraying the trees now in that area the landscape division will kill the notorious elm leaf beetles whose larvae are responsible for the smell. The larvae drop to the trunks of the elms where they decay and cause the odor. Professors Write Poet's Biography Dr. Lois B.

The program, begun as a course for the instruction of 12 motor fleet supervisors, is now taught to 2000 persons annually throughout the country. The first course was the child of Amos E. Neyhart, administra tive head of the University’s In-j stitute of Public Safety, and its success in following years led to a recommendation by the Auto motive Safety Foundation for its adoption by other schools. As a result of its recommenda tion, a National Committee for Motor Fleet Supervisor Training was formed to co-ordinate the training program on a country wide scale, and Neyhart, who be came known as the father of driver education courses, became its first secretary. To Be Clearing House The purpose of the co-ordinat ing committee is to serve as a clearing house for promotional and instructional material, to furnish administrators and teach ers for lesson units, to develop new materials, to establish mini mum standards and to conduct research studies in the field of motor fleet training. From its small beginning in 1939, the program has grown to vast proportions, now offering seven different courses for the transportation industry from Pennsylvania to Texas and from Alabama to California. Courses are also given in Hawaii and Canada. Less Than 2000 Instructors The courses last from two days to one week. In 1956, 1751 supervisors were trained in the program. These fewer than 2000 persons direct and instruct 167,135 drivers. A total of 13,311 persons have been trained since.the first class in 1939. These supervisors, in turn, have under their jurisdic tion 1,850,068 drivers. Revision of Courses More than 100 transportation industry leaders serve on several sub-committees whose duty it is to establish and periodically re vise the courses. Secretary Neyhart directs the administration of the, national body from his office at the Uni versity. He also continues to teach classes. Joseph Intorre, administrative assistant of the Institute of Pub lic Safety, i$ assistant secretary of the committee.
