Jack Kendall, president of the

know if we have the power to do
it (include the new section in the
ICCB constitution)."
The present constitution is in
complete and "makes a mockery
out of the organization (ICCB),"
according to Zepp.
The present constitution was
passed by the All-University
Cabinet in March 1956 and was
also passed by the Senate Sub
committee on Student Affairs,
Zepp said.
Four members of ICCB, Louis
Phillips, Eleanor Judy, Ruth
Johnson and Zepp, met Thursday
afternoon to draw up an outline
of the new constitution to be pre

Thursday for discussion.
Zepp proposed that the presi

ing Student Council be given a
seat, on the Inter-College Board.
It was also decided at the ICCB
meeting Thursday night to elect
a faculty adviser for ICCB at
next week's meeting.

"STEP RIGHT UP, ladies and gents. Feast your eyes . . ." Benay
Hollanz is doing the yelling to bridg Mardi Gras spectators into
the freshman booth in Recreation Building last night.
Mardi Gras Relives
Gay New Orleans
Booths representing everything that is Creole, Dixie,
ancient history, sounds of the blues, barker's cries and bass
drums filled the air.
That was Mardi Gras, 1958, sponsored by Scrolls, senior
women's hat society, in Recreation Building last night.
In one booth, spectators were
urged to "Revionize the Alpha
Xi's" by smearing them with cos
metics. In another, two "Golden
Girls" covered with gild lured
patrons into the "Grecian Grot
to."
Chi Omega's "Hit or Mississip
pi" minstrel show offered a free
car wash to the winners of the
betting on the large spinning
wheel.
Winners of the hula hoop
betting in Phi Sigma Sigma's
"La Hula Hoop Invades New
Orleans" get a spaghetti dinner
at a downtown restaurant.
There were - numerous pitching
contests ranging from Alpha Phi's
flinging a f risbee through the
mouth of Frothy to Phi Mu's
throwing a "Ring Around the
Rosy."
Dart games were on the scene
and patrons aimed for everything
'from Kappa Kappa Gamma's
"Key Club" to Pi Beta Phi's rain
bows.
Other Mardi Gras highlights
were the Rue de Bourbon show
of Theta Phi Alpha; Delta Delta

shirt rule will be repealed,
Schimpf said, according to the
Nittany constitution,
The rule states that no T-shirts
or sweatshirts will be worn at
any meal and that a sport-shirt
or coat will be worn. It also states
that at the Sunday noon meal a
sport jacket or suit coat must be
worn.
As it stands now, the rule will
go into effect tomorrow at the
noon meal. There will be - signs
posted at the three entrances to
the dining hall informing the res
idents of the rule. If these signs
are ignored, the dining room
checkers will not allow the resi
dents ignoring the rule to pass
through the line, Schimpf said.
I There will be dormitory
meetings during the week to in.

where participants could throw a
ball through a moving Neptune's
mouth to vie for a prize; and
Alpha Gamma Delta's "French
[ Surprise Show."
At intervals, the standings of
the Mardi King contest would
be announced. The five finalists
were to be chosen at 11 p.m.
Prior to the Mardi Gras exhi
bition, a parade moved down Pol
lock Road en route to Recreation
Building. Cars carrying each of
the 22 Rex candidates were sur
rounded by dancing devils, toga
clad Greeks, clowns, gamblers
and others, as they moved gayly
down the street.
Winners of the parade and the
Mardi Gras king will be an
nounced at the Mardi Brawl jam
session from 2 to 5 p.m. today in
the Hetzel Union assembly room.

form the residence hall mem
bers of the ruling. When it was
first brought up at the Nittany
Council meeting on Wednesday.
there were no apparent objec
tions and the rule was passed
with only a few dissenting
votes.
However, the residence hall
members seemed to have a dif
ferent idea about the ruling.
At one residence hall meeting,
discussion on the rule turned into
heated debate and included
claims of violations of constitu
tional rights and non-representa
tion of the students at Nittany
Council. One member of the unit
called for the secession of Nittany
143 from the Nittany Council and
the election of a new president
was also suggested.

Lions to
For 'Old
By LOU PRATO
Sports Editor
MORGANTOWN, W.Va., Nov. B—The second leg in the
battle for,Tri-State supremacy and the "Old Ironsides" trophy
that goes with it gets underway here this afternoon when
Penn State meets West Virginia on Mountaineer
Kickoff is at 1:30 p.m. Radio station WMAJ with Mickey
Bergstein handling the play-by- 1
play, will broadcast the game
starting at 1:25.
This is the Mounties' last chancel ommittee
to remain in contention for the,
Tri-State title—held "illegally"
by Pitt the last 3 years. West Vir- 1
ginia was beaten by the Panthers,
15-8, three weeks ago in the first
step towards ' the 1958 crown.
Penn State faces Pitt Thanks
giving Day in the final round.
The Tri-State crown and "Old
Ironsides" has been given since
1952 when a Pitt alumnus—Emil
Narick—instigated the idea. Penn
State won the award the first
year, 'West Virginia in 1953 and
1954 and Pitt in 1955. The Pan
thers have kept the trophy for
the last two years because of ties
between the three combatants.
The Lions are a six-point fa
vorite today, mainly on the bas
is of a win over a common op
ponent Boston University.
Penn- State whipped the Ter
riers, 34-0, but the Mountain
eers lost 36-30.
However, with this being Home
coming Day in Mountaineer land,
that one TD spread doesn't mean
much. For Coach Pappy Lewis'
crew is a fired-up ball club and
what would be more fitting than
beating an old enemy before a
horde of grid-happy alums.
It's almost ironic to note that
the last West Virginia win in
the 24-game series came before
another Homecoming day gath
ering here in 1955, 21-7.
However, Penn State's head
Coach Rip Engle feels that the
Homecoming aspect will not be
that inma rtant. "They'll be fired
up anyway," Engle said before
leaving the Nittany Valley yester
day morning, "because we are
such an old rival. They're up for
us everytime we meet."
