Hodnet
On Higher Education
Dr. Edward Hodnett, assistant to the president of Dow
Corning Corp., will speak on "The Public's. Stake in Excel-
I I
lence in Higher Education" at 8 tonight in 10 Sparks.
Hodnett's address marks the second of a 3-part seminar
on "The Excellence of Teaching in a Large University." The
series is sponsored by the Office
of the Vice President for Aca
demic Affairs.
Hodnett, a native of Long Is
land, received his A.B. and Ph.D.
from Columbia University where
he also taught and did adminis
trative work. He was editor of
the Columbia University Press.
After three years in the Navy
during World War 11, he estab
lished a college for veterans—The
University of Massachusetts at
Fort Devens. He also served as
president of Fenn College in
Cleveland and was chairman of
the Department of English at
Ohio University.
He is the author of "The Art
of Problem Solving" and "In
dustry - College Relations." In
the latter book, Hodnett ex
plains industry's stake in high
er education by saying: "Indus
try, expects the college graduate
quickly to develop competence
in the routine problems for
which he is trained. But what
industry searches for tirelessly
is the college graduate who can
solve tough problems— the
technical ones that r ange in
complexity beyond the routine
at every level of an organiza
tion, those that involve human
relations, as most difficult prob
lems do, and those that are con
cerned with the deeper issues
bearing on the welfare of so
ciety. The specifications of in
dustry are as broad as industry
itself."
Sororities--
(Continued from page one)
Unless they are now living in
their sorority's residence hall,
they have no assurance of get
ting into that residence hall at
all.
Miss Muskat said sororities
could gain 'more than the 25 al
lotted spaces if members now liv
ing in sorority rooms would put
in applications for the room. She
also pointed out that this would
mean that coeds living on floors
farthest from their chapter rooms
could not move down if they
wanted to keep these rooms as
sorority rooms.
She also reported ap alternate;
plan to the one stated at Tues- 1
day's meeting for the sororities
in the South Halls. Tuesday's plan
called for a sorority to take half
the rooms on one floor (in addi
tion to the first floor rooms they
now occupy) and give the other
half to another sorority.
Under this plan, a sorority
now occupying a floor other
than the one set aside by the
Housing department for the re•
allocation of sorority rooms,
could still maintain these rooms.
This would mean the other
sorority in the residence hall
would have to take its chances
on finding rooms within the
building for its members.
The alternate plan calls for
each sorority to take one half of
a different floor. They could then
keep other rooms on that floor
which are already occupied by
sorority members and fill in the
remainder with independent wom
en.
Miss Muskat asked South Halls
sorority representatives to take
both plans back to their members
for a vote on them. All sororities
in the South Halls must agree
on the same plan before it will
be accepted by the housing tic
partment.
Representatives of some of the
South Hall sororities said they
had considered giving up their
suites entirely if some plan could
not be devised whereby sorority
members could live together as
a unit.

He also says, "The most diffi
cult problems of every executive
involve the question of moral and
other values. These questions are
not the business of technical cur
ricula. They are the substance of
religion, philosophy, history, art
and literature. The entire liberal
arts curriculum, therefore, has
relevance to industry."
Hodnett points up his views on
the relationship of a liberal arts
background to industry stating
that the majority of men gradu
ates in liberal arts go into indus
try either directly or after grad
uate work through science, eco
nomics, psychology, business ad
ministration or law.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Classified Romance
'lt Pays to Advertise,' Says Coed
By BRENDA PEZZNER
"Congenial attractive girl
desires date for IFC weekend.
Call ext. 393."
This small advertisement
appealed in yesterday's issue
of The Daily Collegian. The
avalanche of calls in response led
to a hectic afternoon on'the 'fourth
floor of Atherton Hall.
The ad proved that some peo
ple will do anything on a dare.
It was the result of a regular
gab session of several freshman
girls. The coeds dared Geraldine
Markos, second semester student
in the Division of Counseling from
McKeesport, to place the ad.
The ad also proved that a
great number of people read
Collegian classifieds. Ger
aldine's phone was busy all day
Wednesday!
One call was of particular in
terest. The caller gave his name
as Richard Fisher, assistant copy
editor of The Daily Collegian. He
made an appointment to come to
Atherton lounge at 1:15 p.m. with
a photographer, on the pretext
of writing a feature story for the
paper.
Since none of the coeds in
volved were acquainted with
Fisher, or any of the photography
staff, they believed the story, and
Geraldine agreed to meet him.
The pictures were taken on
the front steps of Atherton with
a crowd of Geraldine's friends
watching. The windows of
rooms facing the front entrance
were filled with interested on
lookers, encouraging. Geraldine
to "smile pretty."
After the pictures were taken,
the hoax was discovered. Twol
men from Nittany, not to be out
done by the Atherton coeds, had
decided to disguise themselves as
I Collegian staffers.
Masquerading as Richard Fish
er was Gerald B. McNelly, second
semester student in engineering
from Murrysville.
James D. Richardson, second
semester Liberal Arts student
from Pittsburgh, was easily mis
taken for a 'Collegian photogra

Things really became confused
last night when Geraldine re
ceived another phone call from
Nittany. This time she was told'
that fifty men were coining to
the lobby at 7:30 p.m.
When it started to snow, the
men decided that if such a large
delegation were to invade
Atherton, the result might be
damaging. Rather than abandon
the plan completely. several did
keep the appointment.
Among the group were: Charles
Stock freshman in liberal arts
from bavidsville; Peter K. Laros,
sophomore in mechanical engi
neering from Cornwells Heights;
Lawrence Dodds, freshman in
electrical engineering from Mc-
Keesport; and Robert Hannum,
freshman in chemical engineer
ing from Cheltenham.
Hannum, spokesfnan for the
group, said he hoped a mixer
