1957 Encampment: The Results
Students Gain Senate Representation
By DENNY MALICK
Fourth of a Series
Concerted efforts following
recommendations from Stu
dent Encampment have
brought about student repre
sentation at University Sen
ate meetings.
Students were allowed to at
tend the meetings for the firs'
time last year, although only in
ex-officio capacities.
A f ter the 1957 encampmen
recommended that student mem
bees of the Se ate committees be
allowed to at end the meetings
permission w., granted for the
1957-58 school year.
The Senate followed up this
action Thursd • y by allowing the
student comm tteemen to attend
meetings agai this year and also

During the events, coeds will
serve free refreshments. Coeds
will be allowed in the area to
watch the events.
The events will be staged on an
individual basis but the winners
of events will earn points for their
dormitory units. At the end of the
contest, the total number of points
each dormitory has accumulated
will be totaled up and a $5O tro
phy will be awarded to the dorm
itory with the highest point total.
Recreational Education students !
and counselors from the various
dormitories will officiate at the,
meet which is sponsored by the ;
Nittany Council. It is the first:
field day of this type ever to be
held in the Nittany area.
During the meet, a public ad
dress system will be used to
announce the various events
and winners and will also carry
highlights and scores of the
Penn State-Army football game.
According to Paul Craska, the ,
Recreational Chairman for the!
Nittany area, the events are well!
organized and much time 'has?
been taken to ready the field. The
meet is free of charge and open'
to the public.
Craska said he hopes the field
day will be continued and will
eventually become a regular.
The trophy will be inscribed
with the name of the winning'
I Nittany dormitory on it and will
be permanently displayed in Nit
tany Dormitory 20.
Craska said he hopes the field
day and other events of this
kind will begin to bring out a
more active participation of the
independent students in intra
mural sporting events, particu
larly in the Nittany area.
By the system of earning points
in the contest, better dormitory co
operation and unity may be a
chieved, he added.

Of the $550,000 cost of the build

toona residents from public dona
tions. The remainder was given
by the University.
A special invitation has been
extended to graduates of the
campus to attend the dedica
tion ceremonies. Many of the
graduates are now enrolled at
the University.
The Altoona Campus, one of
seven centers now called campus

World War II and the land was

However, the students still
have not achieved their main
goal, that of receiving voting priv

A Senate reorganization com
mittee, which was headed by Dr.
Macklin E. John, considered the
matter but when its report was

Altering their matriculation,
cards resulted in a judicial warn-i
ing and possibly a one-semester;
removal of activities privileges
for two first-semester freshmen.
The Judicial Board of Review
of the Association of Independent
Men recommended both penalties
at its Thursday night hearing.
The Dean of Men's office up
,held the judicial warning but is
undecided about removing activi
ties privileges.
The two were quoted as say
ing they had made the alter
ation to take older girls (trans
fer students) some place "with
atmosphere" besides the Hetzel
Union Building or Corner Room
after movie dates.
Both denied planning to use the
cards to procure alcoholic bever
ages.
A judicial warning is placed on
file in the dean of men's office
but is not entered on the offend
ers' permanent records or tran
scripts.
If approved, the removal of ac
tivities privileges - would have no
effect on the violators' participa
tion in recognized campus organ
izations but would bar them from
admission to athletic events and
all University-sponsored functions
for which matriculation cards
cards must be shown.
'5B LaVie Gets
Honor Rating
The 1958 LaVie has received a
rating of "A" from the National
School Yearbook Association, an
honor given to only 10 per cent
of the books judged.
"There is dignity throughout
the book and it speaks well of the
University it represents," accord
ing to the judges.
The judges further commended
the book on its ivory paper, which
was used for the first time since
1938, and the choice of the terra
cotta second color.
The only weak point in the
book, the judges said, was the
monotany in the fraternity, soror
ity and senior portrait sections
where a similar layout was used
on a large number of pages.

University to Set
Policy for Centers
The University is in the midst of preparing a report spell
ing out its practice, policy and procedure for establishing off
campus centers.
President Eric A. Walker said the University, under its
long range program, is under heavy pressure to add new
centers, and no one quite rea
establishing a center.
Walker told the University Sen
ate meeting Thursday that the
University has turned down sonic
requests for establishing centers,
and accepted others.
The report is being prepared
for the January meeting of the
Board of Trustees, Walker said.
In other business, the Senate
approved admittance of student
members of Senate committees
and sub-committees to Senate
meetings. Last year the student
'members were also permitted to
"attend and speak on issues, but
,they still will not, be allowed to
vote.
H Eugene Goodwin, director
of the School of Journalism, was
confirmed as the Senate repre
sentative on the student Board

Would you
fair play?
Hardly—yet you face
the same kind of unfairness
with some of your taxes
The referee in this picture is doing something no
official in his right mind would do. He's tackling
the ball-carrier, and thus giving an unfair advantage
to the opposing team. In a similar way, federal laws
give certain people an unfair tax advantage over you
and most Americans. Here's how:
About 23 cents out of every dollar you pay for
electricity goes for taxes. But under present tax
laws, several million families and businesses escape
paying most of the taxes in their electric bills that
you pay in yours. They are people whose electricity
comes from federal government electric systems.
And what's more, the taxes they escape have to
be made up by other people—including you!
Most Americans think everyone should pay his
own fair share of taxes. Don't you agree?
