Laßar quoted from the Univer
sity’s original lease received in
1940 which stated the University
may not sub-lease land to any or
ganizations unless special per
mission is granted by the federal
government.
Laßar said three members of
President Eric A. Walker's com
mittee on policy for Stone Val
ley and a management commit
teeman told him they thought
the sub-leasing would not be
feasible.
Some fraternities and. other’
campus organizations had dis- j
cussed locating cabins in the rec-;
reation area. j
The point was brought out in
discussion of the Recreation and
Student Welfare Workshop re
port from Student Encampment.
Cabinet defeated a Laßar mo
tion to delete a jfflrt of the
workshop report which asked
that the possibility of cabins
built by student organization in
Stone Valley be publicized.
David Fine m a n, workshop
chairman, said the possibility of
such cabins was mentioned in a
Board of Trustee report which
would indicate the cabins may
still be built.

THE'DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Nygreen Cites Greeks' Dual Roles
Fraternities present the
greatest potential tool and at
the s&me time the greatest
threat to obtaining the ideals
sought by educators, Glenn T.
Nygreen said last night.
“Fraternities at the present are
not appealing to the best minds
on a college campus,'’ Nygreen,
dean of men at Kent State Uni
versity and educational adviser
to the National Interfraternity
Conference, said at last night’s
IFC banquet.
The idea of conformity on the
part of members who join a
fraternity must be subdued,
Nygreen said, es he addressed
the closing session of the 3-day
IFC Workshop program.
Undergraduate members of the
fraternities hold the key to the
[expansion and growth of the na
tional fraternity system, he said,
jand fraternity members must an
alyze themselves now and help
make the fraternity ideals expli
cit. Fraternities must -become a
strong part of a University’s edu
cational system, Nygreen said.
“Fraternities are a strong hold
in giving students an opportunity
to find security and a sense of
belonging,” Nygreen said. They
also give college men an oppor-
tunity to make mistakes end marks with numerous humorous
build a sense of community liv- anecdotes and illustrations,
mg among the entire fraternity P ,_„,
system, he said. « Edward Hmla. IFC president.

the IFC is the strongest tool arship improvement trophy to
with which to maximize ihe
fraternities* usefulness as part
of the education system. Ny
green said.
He said the national fraternity
system must look for danger spots
if they are to avoid destruction.
The educational values of college
fraternities are numerous and
must be exploited, he said.
Nygreen supplemented his re-
THE DRESS PARADE
in all my years of observing coed fashions—and I have been
arrested many times—l have never seen such verve, such dash,
such Je ne sais quoi as can be found in this year’s styles!
I am particularly enchanted by the new "baby waist” dresses
which so many of you girls are favoring this season. How
demure you all look in your "baby waists” 1 How sweet I How
innocent! How colorful when your housemother lifts you up
and burps you after dinner!
Another trend that leaves me limp with rapture is the over
sized handbag. Goodbye to dinky little purses that hold nothing
at all! Hurrah for today’s sensibly sized hag with plenty of
room for your makeup, your pens and pencils, your shelter
half, your Slinky toy, your MG, and your Marlboroa.
Did I say Marl boros? Certainly I said Marlboros. What girl
can consider herself in the van, in the swim, and in the know,
if she duLo.i't smoke Marlboros? What man, for that matter.
Do you want a filter that is truly new, genuinely advanced,
but at the same time, does not rob you of the full flavor of
first-rate tobacco? Then get Marlboro. Also get matches because
the pleasure you derive from a Marlboro is necessarily limited
if unlit.
To return to coed fashions, let us now discuss footwear. The
popular flat shoe was introduced several years ago when it
became obvious that girls were growing tallei than boys. For
a while the flat shoes kept the sexes in a state of uneasy balance,
but today they will no longer serve. Now, even in flats, girls
are towering over their dates, for the feminine growth rate lias
continued to rise with disturbing speed. In fact, it is now
thought possible that we will sec fifteen-foot girls in our lifetime.
But science is working on the problem, and I feel sure
American know-how will find an answer. Meanwhile, a tem
porary measure is available—the reverse wedgie.
The reverse wedgie is simply a wedgie turned around. This
tilts a girl backward at a 45 degree angle and cuts as much as
three feet off her height. It is, of coursej impossible to walk in
this position unless you have support, so your date will have to
keep his arm around your waist at all times. This will tire him
out in fairly short order; therefore you must constantly give
him encouragement. Keep looking up at him and batting your
lashes and repeating in awed tones, "How strong you are,
Shorty!”
Next we turn to hair styling. The hair-do this year is definitely
the cloche-coif. One sees very few crew cuts orjrene Castle
bobs, and the new Mohican cut seems not to have caught on
at all. In fact, I saw only one girl with a Mohican—Rhodelle
H. Sigafoos, a sophomore of Bennington. Her classmates laughed
and laughed at her, but it was Rhodelle who had the last laugh,
for one night a dark, handsome stranger leaped from behind a
birch and linked his arm in Rhodelle’s and said, “I am Uncas,
the last of the Mohicans—but I need not be the last, dear lady,
if you will but Ire my wife.” Today| they are happily married
and run a candied-apple stand near Macon, Ga., and havethree
little Mohicans named Patti, Maxine, and Laverne.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Uncas and to all of you who
have discovered the pleasures of Marlboro and Marlboro's
sister cigarette, non-dlter Philip Morris, both made by the
sponsors of this column.
