The plan went into operation Jan. 29 after approval by All-University Cabinet. Cabinet Thursday night endorsed recommendations by WUS to Aid Med Student With $BO7 The World University Service wound up its first independent fund raising campaign with a to tal of $807.52, which will be sent to the Medical Scholarship Trust Fund in the Union of South Af rica.

Events in the drive included exhibits, talks by WUS execu tives, the "Prof Snarf" contest and solicitation of funds from campus groups and individuals. The Liberal Arts Student Coun cil and All-University Cabinet made the highest contributions— sloo each, Jacob Dentu, co-chairman of the drive, said, "I wish to thank students and faculty who co operated in the bold experi ment to elect the most Lovable Penn State Prof 'Prof Snarf'." He said he hoped the coopera tion would continue next year, for the future of other university students is our future. Dauna Docbler and Maury Mov sovich have been named co-chair men for next year's drive, to be held in February or March. History Professor Calls U.S. Policies Big Factors in South American Riots By DON CASCIATO Dr. William H. Gray, profes sor of Latin American history and director of International Student Affairs, described American economic and po litical policies as the biggest factors in the recent South American riots. Gray, in an interview, said that the United States policy of sup porting friendly South American dictators and reduced purchases of raw materials since World War II are two of the biggest political and economic reasons for rioting when Vice President Richard M, Nixon visited South America. Gray said we don't deal with dictators, we would have no one vise with whom to deal. Their university students and in telligentsia dislike this policy." He added that if it is an unfriend ly dictator we try to oust him as we did in Guatamala several years ago with President Arbenz. This policy is the successor to Louis Wonderly, former chairman of the Cabinet Student Insurance Committee, to continue all three of the coverage programs In the plan. Wonderly said W. A. Mar quette, broker for the Conti nental Casualty Co.. had rec ommended that two parts of the plan be dropped because of low student participation. Wonderly said "although only 11 per cent of the students are enrolled in plans I and II of the program, we feel the number is not indicative of the enrollment next year. The three plans are more beneficial to the students as a whole." The company asked that plan I be the only plan continued. It is an all-inclusive plan in which 90 per cent of the stu dents enrolled. It provides ma jor medical coverage. Plan II which covers BO per cent of accident and sickness ex penses up to $7599, was the least costly but only 3 per cent of the students enrolled. Wonderly said It was a "catastrophe plan," par ticularly for those under 19, to cover expenses over and above a family plan. Plan 111 had no coverage for accident expenses over $lOOO nor for allocated sickness expenses over $1165. It appealed to stu dents who felt "some insurance was better than none at all," Wonderly said. He said the company paid out in claims almost half of what it took in total premiums. In other Cabinet business the following appointments were ap proved: Committee for the University Lecture Series, faculty: Dr. Kent Forster; Miss Mary Jane Wyland, chairman; Dr. Kent Forster; Dr. Robert Beam; Ross Lehman; Dr. H. J. O'Brien; students, Riley Johnson, Jack Johnson, Jack Ken dall, Sherry Parkin, Wilbur Lew ellyn, Joyce Carson, Chris Mey ers. the "big stick" policy of Theodore Roosevelt, he said. He said their governments are finally making known the dis content they have felt for the last 10 or 12 years. He added that most of them are friendly —as Nixon has testified. "Most of the trouble is caused by a small agitating group," he said, "which finds it convenient to criticize our policies." Gray added that we take our own criti cism for granted but don't like their opinions. Other economic rnasons for unrest, according to Gray, area •Tariff !bro.:au.

PENNSYLVANIA Steamshovels, Excavation To Greet Students Next By JEFF POLLACK Students will soon be leav ing the scene of excavation pits, steamshovels and dirt-- 1 they will return in the fall, to the scene of excavation pits, iteamshovels and dirt. On the Hetzel Union Building lawn, rather than a green lawn, students will be confronted with an engineering panorama, as work on the Home Economics South buildings moves toward comple tion in April 1959. The project, including two wings to the build ing and as a connection the south building and the Home Economics Building is now in the excava tion stage. College Avenue—between the Mall and Burrowes Road—is the site of the new Hammond Engi neering Building scheduled for completion in 1960. The new engineering unit, as well as the northern addition to Sackett Building, is the only con struction underway on west cam pus. The foundation and basement for the Sackett wing is now being excavated while rubble removal is the chief job on the Hammond site. Work on a Petroleum Refining Laboratory, now in the concrete pouring stage, will continue to ward completion in 1960. The lab oratory is part of the Hammond Building project. Now that contracts have been let on the Wagner Military Sci ence Building, students on the University farms will have some thing to occupy their extra hours. may be unique—sidewalk superintendents, and no side walks. By the time the majority of students return, the completed shells of three of the four new men's residence halls on Park Avenue will be up, and work will be nearing completion on the fourth. The area, scheduled to be ready for occupancy for the fall semes ter of 1959, will house 1144 stu dents. No date has been set for the start of construction on ten nis, handball and basketball courts scheduled for the area. So, coining or going, students will be met by the same scene of construction. much harder than it has hit us. They hold us responsible, even though it is not all our fault, since we can't fix low world prices. Political reasons for discontent are: • Latin American people do not hold a high regard for politicians. They considered Nixon a political leader. •Ever since the war, they have accused us of helping our enemies by giving financial aid, while ne glecting Latin America, which aided our war effort. * STARLITE * DRIVE-IN MIDWAY BETWEEN STATE COLLEGE & BELLEFONTE , SHOWTIME 8:50 SATURDAY AND GOD CREATED WOMAN BRIGETTE BARDOT IN TECHNICOLOR CINEMASCOPE GREEN EYED BLOND SUSAN OLIVER —AND-- LINDA POWMAN 0 PLUS CARTOON • SUN., MON. & TUES.
