The recommendation was or- ,

Hollander, which excepted vet
erans serving under the Re

mendation are:
• Exempted veterans should be;
required to substitute an equiva-;
ilent number of credits in place of!
physical education. j
I •Veterans electing not to takei
[physical education in their first'

] Boehret, in his recommenda-j
tion. said he felt most veterans
jwere “mature enough, because of
their age and experience.” to de
cide whether they need the
course. He also cited the fact that
veterans have participated in a
program of physical fitness in
their service training and that a
“significant number of students”
—as shown in a survey—have ex
pressed the desire that physical
education be made elective for
.them.

Concert Association
Kills Future Series
Directors of the State College Concert Association
unanimously decided not to schedule any programs for tha
1958-59 academic year.
The action was taken regretfully, Mrs. Francis F. Forbes,
president of the association, said, because of the inadequate
support received last year. j -
The membership campaign *** ••••
fall fell more than 300 short of the'
goal which is needed to assure 1
the best possible series
The University's Artists’ Series (
made possible the series already;
scheduled by purchasing the re-;
maining memberships for distri-,
bution or the same basis as those
for their own series-
The State College Concert As-j
sociation was organized as the :
State Coliege Community Con-’
certs in 1950 to help meet the
needs of the community for musi-!
cal programs by some of the finest
concert artists and groups. j
The establishment last fall of:
the University Artists’ Series,;
sponsored in part by a student'
fee, as well as the annual series
of the State College Choral So-j
Iciety, have helped to meet this!
need in the opinion of the direc-j
tors. For each of the Artists’
Series concerts, a limited number
of tickets have been placed on
sale for non-students.
While the association has de-i
cided to plan no programs for
the 1958-59 academic year, the
association will continue in exis
tence with the present officers,
which are, in addition to Mrs.
Forbes, as president; Earl B.
Stavely, vice-president; Mrs. A-
William Hajjar .secretary, and
Edmund H. Umberger, treasurer.
The remaining two programs in
