Get soon, ng Frosh Suspe Warni One University freshman has been recommended for immediate suspension and another has been given Judicial \ warning by the Association of Independent Men Judicial Board of Review as a re sult of their part in the panty raid Sunday night and subse quent water battles. The suspension recommenda tion until February, 1959, was giv en by JBR because they felt the student was immature and irre sponsible as attested by a long record of previous offenses in the dormitory. The board viewed his admitted part in the ill-fated "panty-raid" on Women's Build ing as a culmination of his detri mental acts: Although he was not appro. handed at the scene of the riot, be was ,seen throwing plastic_ bags full of water from his window. In a later interview with his dormitory counselor and the West Halls coordinator, he said he had been in the crowd at Woman's •Building and had jdined in the. yelling. The student was also found to have changed the birthdate on his matriculation card but denied using it to buy alcoholic bever ages. The recommendation for Sus pension was approved by the dean of men's office and will be re viewed next week by the sub committee on discipline of the Senate Committee on Student Affairs. The other student was given judicial warning by the board as a result of involvement in the water battle following the dem onstration. The dean of men's office' approved the warning and added office probation un til February, 1858. He admitted dropping a water bag in the general battle but said he stayed in the dormitory dur ing the riot. His counselor testi fied that he had a favorable rec ord of condUct this year.

SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 26. 1958 Cordiality was tempered by caution from the time Mikoyan arrived for the first visit by a top Soviet leader since the Bonn re public was established in 1949. The four agreements, drawn up during nine months of negotia tions in Moscow, call for an ex change of $375 million worth of goods over the next three years and for establishment of consular loffices in Bonn and Moscow. Mikoyan expressed hope the ac cords would lead to further agree ments ,and West German For leign Minister Heinrich von Brent ano made a formal statement !praising the improvement in So viet-West German relations. But the formal restraint of the ceremonies was abandoned at a subsequent diplomatic reception when Mikoyan encountered De fense Minister Franz Josef Strauss. Mikoyan, a swarthy Ar menian noted for his wit, rose when Strauss, a big red-faced Bavarian, strode in and a crowd gathered around them. After - shaking hands, Strauss declared: "We are not building up, our army for aggressive purposes. It's because we are afraid of you." "Afraid of us?" Mikoyan said with a grin. "You have nothing to fear—our purposes are purely peaceful." "Ah," said-Strauss, "but we are a pygmy. And pygmies are afraid of giants." "But this giant," Mikoyan shot back, "doesn't want to hurt any body." Neither Strauss nor Mikoyan stopped smiling during the 15- minute exchange, but it was ap parent both were deadly earnest. Under the trade pacts West Germany will send machinery to the Russians and will receive raw materials, crude oil and oil pro ducts.

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE Walker Classes President Eric A. Walker predicted yesterday that night classes would probably be scheduled every weeknight, except Saturday and Sunday, in the future, but said these classes would not destro activities and lectures. In a Daily Collegian interview concerning the possible p enrollment expansion, Prexy said "I deplore doing this (sc INTERVIEW WITH PREXY Here are President Eric A. Walker's views expressed at a Daily Collegian interview yesterday: •The University probably does a better job than most small schools preparing students for the outside world. •The University's size makes better facilities available. *Classes will probably be scheduled every night of the week, excluding Saturday and Sunday, in the near future. *Night Classes won't destroy activities and lectures, but will interfere with these extracurricular activities and make scheduling more difficult. •Our campus enrollment will probably stop at 25,000. The centers will eventually handle 10,000 students, and pos sibly more. e The University shouldn't limit enrollment to state stu dents or high school students in the upper two-fifths of their class. ell should not express a view on the controversy over opening Board of Trustees meetings since he is only secretary of the Board.

The decision to operate the theater came as the result of a $lO,OOO gift from Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Mateer, who are interested in the arts and in the develop ment of a permanent summer theater. Mateer is a borough business man and a University alumnus. President Eric A. Walker said,, "The gift will launch a program which we hope and believe will enrich our curriculum in the theatre arts and at the same time provide a cultural center for the theater-loving public of this area." Standing Stone, an arena-type theater seating 250, is a reconvert- tztr ict lA *••• • • rgiatt By LARRY JACOBSON By PAT EVANS ed barn at Neff's Mills, 18 miles from the University. It has been used since 1951 as a summer thea ter. The summer program will be under the direction of the Depart ment of the Theatre Arts, headed by Dr. W. H. Walters. Two courses in acting and production will be offered at the playhouse. Students in terested in taking them should contact Walters. Students in acting will have (Continued on page three) • Delta Theta Sigma fraterni ty, whose house was destroyed in a $30,000 fire Feb. 19, has obtained a new 3-story stone house at the corner of West College Avenue and South Pat terson Street, four blocks west of Atherton Street. The new house will be reno vated and an addition made this summer to be ready for the fall semester. Fred Hughes, DTS alumni as sociation resident and associate professor of agriculture economics extension, said the house will be financed through the alumni association which is counting On individual contributions. The 31 members of the fra ternity have been living in Pol lock 3 since the fire. Hughes said an addition will be made to the house, including more dining room and dancing space. The second and third floors of the house will be devoted to living quarters. Some new par titions will have to be installed.

He agreed that extracurricular activities, lectures, etc., develop the well-rounded student, adding that night classes will interfere with activities, but not to an over ly appreciable extent. Activity scheduling will be more difficult, he explained, but these activities and lectures will Just have to be scheduled around night classes. Walker admitted the Univer sity isn't making the best use of available space, but said steps are being taken to alleviate this situation. Just how much will enroll ment increase? Walker said the Board of Trustees has set a limit of 25,000 "on-campus" en rollment. "Of course," he add ed, "the trustees could change their minds." Although the on-campus enroll ment may stop at 25,000, Prexy said, enrollment at the centers will eventually hit 10,000, and could conceivably go further: "We have set a 10,000 tentative limit on the centers, but we might add more centers." In the last 10 days, four communities have asked Walker for center establishments. He also discounted limiting en rollment to state students or stu dents in the upper two-fifths of their high school classes as pos sible answers to cutting down high enrollment increases. "We accept 10 per cent of our students from out of state. This is the best compromise, because we want the student body to represent all cultures and metropolitan areas," he explain ed. In addition, he said, there is an unofficial reciprocity agree ment with other states. If the University refuses to take their students, they could refuse to take Pennsylvania's. Concerning high school require ments, Walker listed no enroll ment requirement other than get ting the best students. "If we want 3000 students." he said, "I tell Dean (C. 0.) Williams to get the best 3000. If we judged a student solely on his high school class standing, it wouldn't be a fair judgment." And Walker didn't seem to Imind the bigness of the Univer sity. Not only does the Univer- Isity's size allow for better facili ties, he said, but a large school better prepares students for life in the outside world. "This is a big world, with many large cities and large (Continued on page eight) Lion Predicts Tennis Clime The Nittany Lion pulled his beach umbrella out of the den and brushed it off. "Thank goodness for this warm weather," he said. "Now I can get in some swim ming, pick up a sun tan—and maybe some cute coed `buds'." He looked at the skies, and hurriedly shoved the umbrella back into the cave as he pulled out his tennis racket. Why? Be cause he realized 'that today wouldn't be a swim ming day.
