I mer Term by Senate; • K Needed policy-making body, has approved mer term of 12 weeks ,which would eek sessions. ed by the Board of Trustees, would, he present summer sessions of three,, would be effective next summer: The Senate, at its meeting last week, also approved a recommendation calling for the end of the fall semester be fore the Christmas recess. Thisi would undoubtedly necessitate an earlier start for the fall semester than at present. The fall semes ter now runs about two weeks in-' to January. The two summer programs running at the same time are• designed to serve both students who wish' to accelerate and graduate in three years and . those students and other per sons who want to take only one or two courses during the sum mer. If a student wanted to graduate in three years, he would attend the proposed 12-week session, It he wanted to take several courses, he could attend only half of the proposed 12-week session. Stud ents and teachers desiring to take fewer courses could attend one of the present summer sessions. The Senate favored the addi tion of the new summer session over the more true year-round school proposals of a quarter or trimester system. The new 12-week program supposedly will of fe r more courses than are presently avail able in summer school. The Uni versity plans to do this to make it more attractive to students to graduate in three years, there by attaining fuller use of Uni versity facilities during a larger part of the year. The University Board of Trus tees is expected to act upon the Senate proposal either at its meet ings this week or next month. The University hopes to include an expanded summer program in its proposed budget for the next biennium, to be submitted to Gov. George M. Leader in the fall.

Earl THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA 'Big Moose' Ends Career For Lion'9' By VINCE CAROCCI, '5B The "Big Moose" is no more in collegiate baseball. Junior Cal "Moose". Emery, ace of the Penn State pitching staff, departed from college baseball circles this week when he signed a bonus contract with the Philadelphia Phillies for an estimated $25,000 to $30,000. Ironically enough, Emery, who gained his collegiate fame as a pitcher, was signed as a first base man with the Phillies' affiliate in Bakersfield, Calif. in the Class C California League. He'll report sometime this week. Commenting on his contract, Emery said: "I will say it was a good bonus, It had to be or I wouldn't have left school now. I like Penn State. I got my break here, and I wouldn't have minded at 'all sticking around for another year." Emery plans, to finish his education during the off-season. Coach Joe Bedenk expressed , neither surprise nor bitterness at Emery's signing. Admitting that he knew all season long that major league scouts were eying his southpaw star, Bedenk said: "When a boy gets that much money, he'd better sign . . it's sure not hanging on apple trees." As far as Emery's signing as a first baseman, Bedenk again ex pressed no surprise. He said, we (Emery and he) figured that if he was to go in the majors, it would be as a first baseman—although he is by far a better-than-average college pitcher. Emery's loss , undoubtedly will throw ' Bedenk's 1959 plans off somewhat. In two years of college play, Emery won 18 of 20 games. His only two losses came this past season when he fell to Temple and Lafayette. With the stick, Emery batted .300 this sea son and .352 in 1957. Class Secretary Named David Tressler, of South Con nellsville, a graduate in the Col lege of Education, has been ap pointed permanent secretary of the class of '5B. The appointment was made by Thomas Hollander, class presi dent. Cal "Moose" Emery Turns Professional Seniors, Take Note: Are You Educated? Graduating seniors, take note! The degree you receive today does not necessarily mean you are educated. You are not sufficiently well-read. That appears to be the attitude of the Liberal Arts faculty and student council. They have some suggestions which you can use to become literate The council recently polled its faculty and compiled a list of the classic works of some 65 world authors which instructors consider every college student should read before he graduates. The list, which recently has been available at the LA office, embraces a wide variety of sub jects, periods, ways of life, and points of view. Richard C, Maloney, assistant dean . of the college, said yesterday that the list was prompted by an apparent lack of culture at the University, but added that he felt the council was "unduly concern ed." He said the list was formulated about a year ago to stimulate broader reading among students. "I wouldn't consider it a com prehensive list, by any means," he said. Well, how do you stack up? against this list? Take a look at it! and check off the books you have; read. But you had better keep your score to yourself.

Each graduate is given a num ber printed beside his name on the Commencement program. This number is put on the diploma as a code and guide to the dean who hands it out. The new graduates will be sig naled to move to the diploma tables just before the end of the ceremony. They will give their number to the clerk and receive the diploma and the congi atula tions of the dean. The diploma should be taken with the left hand so that the right hand is free to shake hands with the dean. For most of the University's history through the World War II years the graduates were given their diplomas individually by the president. The large classes since then has made it impractical and the grad uates had -to pick up their diplomas at Willard Hall follow ing the ceremony. Because this was too much like mass production the system o. receiving the diplomas from the deans was devised in 1956. It has been used ever since. In case the commencement ex ercises are held indoors the di plomas will not be handed out by the deans and must be picked up at the Registrar's office in Willard Hall directly after the ceremony.
