Theodore W.lls, junior in liber
al arts from emoyne, had been
released on th; condition that he
would appear efore Mills at the
hearing. Wells! attorney appeared
before Mills to hear the formal
charge by police, and waived a
further hearing before the Jus
tice of the Peace.
Mills bound Wells over to Cen
tre County Court on $2OO bail.
The alleged hit and run accident
occurred at East College Avenue
and South Pugh Street at about
12:45 a.m. Sunday.
According to police reports, he
struck a car operated by Reno
Bailey of Beaver Springs, at the
intersection, and failed to stop af
ter the collision.
Police started to cruise the Bor
ough in order to apprehend the
driver when they spotted a dam
aged car with a license plate
corresponding to a partial num
ber three students who had wit
nessed the accident had given
police.
Damages were estimated at
$5OO to the Bailey car and about
$l5O to the Wells vehicle. No one
was hurt in the mishap.
Dispensary Faces
Christmas Rush
Lines and crowds of - students at
the University Health Center's
dispensary were equal in size to
mobs of Christmas shoppers yes
terday.
Business at the Health Center
was also typical of this time of
the year. The 297 students who
were treated in the dispensary
yesterday for colds and other
respiratory illnesses are consider
ed typical for this time of year.
Dr. Herbert R. Glenn, director
of the center, said, "This is the
usual respiratory period before
Christmas."
The heavy rush on the infirm
ary is nothing serious, he said.
This increase in colds happens
every year.
Town Men May Appiy
For 2 Seats on Council
There are two openings on the
Council of Town Independent
Men for any interested students
who can qualify.
Any independent man, living in
town, with an All-University
average of 2.0 or better is eligible.
He must submit a petition signed
by 20 town independent men to
the TIM office, 203 G, Hetzel
UniOn and must attend the first
TIM meeting after Christmas va
cation.
For additional information stu
dents may call Edward Schultes,
ADams 8-8441, extension 2402.
These two year courses offered
!under the University's engineer
ing extension program qualify
graduates for jobs as engineering
assistants, draftsmen, and elec
tronic technicians.
According to Kenneth L. Hold
erman, director of engineering
extension and assistant dean of
the College of Engineering, engi
neering is a group activity cover
ing three different large areas—
research, design and develop
ment; production, production con
trol and quality control; and in
stallation, maintenance and sales
service.
Engineering assistants w o r k
in all three areas. They know
enough of the engineering
terminology and lan g uages
math, graphics and a spoken
language —to do valuable re
search. They have enough
mathematical knowledge to do
certain production jobs and
they know enough basic engi
neering to work in installation,
maintenance and sales, he said.
By assisting in these fields and l
taking over some of the more rou
tine jobs, engineering assistants
release a greater percentage of
the nations professional engineers
for work in creating and perfect
ing new ideas, Virgil E. Neilly,
associate professor of engineering
extension, said.
"If we don't have assistants do
it, professional engineers would
have to get it done," he said.
The University's associate en
gineering degree program be
gan evolving shortly aft e r
World War 11. It was formal
ized in 1953 when a two-year
course was designated for this
purpose.
"For the most part," said Neil
ly, "these students come to us
from high school rather than from
occupations. They don't di ff e r
much from the baccalaureate en
gineering students except that
they want a more direct ap
proach to occupations. Some only
have enough money for two years
of training."
Requirements for these students
I differ from those for the regular
engineering students-only in the
amount of mathematical back
ground needed-2 years for asso

at der Coffee Spot? They don't use any OLIVES (some
people calling them un passion food . . . Why? I don't
know.) in der food. But they do make some of der best
sandwiches I have ever eaten. You'll really get un
passion for der spaghetti mid meathalls, too.
