Liver: You Hate It But You Need It
By LOLLI NEUBARTH
If you hate liver, leftovers
and Brussels sprouts, you
share the taste of a majority
of residence hall diners.
But if you keep finding these
"most disliked" items on your
plate it isn't beeause the Depart
ment of Food Service is unaware
of student preferences..
According to Mrs. Eris M. San
ders, food supervisor at Redifer
Dining H a 11, by checking food
left on plates, requests for second
servings and even the number of
students who show up for a cer
tain meal, the department gets
a good idea of whether an item
is disliked or not.
"In Redifer ate of the super
visers checks o ten almost every
meal to see what items were not

The largest project will be at
Stone Valley where about 200
students will clean up the area.
They will leave at I p.m. from

University buses.
Refreshments will be provided
for the students at Stone Valley

well received," she said.
Hobert C. Proffitt, director of 1
the department, said liver
heads the list of "pet hates,"
but because of its high nutri
tional value and since there are
students who like it, it is still
offered as an alternate choice
with Friday's fish.
Creamed dishes and those using
leftovers also are not popular, he
said. Spinach is surprisingly well
liked and so are peas, corn and
green beans. Least popular are
`asparagus, broccoli and Brussels
sprouts.
Hamburgers and hot dogs are
the most liked luncheon items,
closely followed by spaghetti and
lasagne.

`Readership'
To Be Goal
Of Handbook
Ben Bronstein, editor of the
1959 Student Handbook, told
All-University Cabinet Thurs
day night that the format of
the handbook will be changed
because few students read it
in its present format.
Bronstein said many students
in the past read very little of the
publication because of the lack of
illustrations. He said next year's
handbook will seek more readers
with a liberal use of photographs
and artwork.
Two major thanes in the
content of the handbook are
planned. Information on stu
dent government will be re
moved from the section on
extracurricular activities and
placed alone because of the
recent reorganization.
The section on campus religion
will be eliminated since each
religious group sends out its own
detailed information.
Besides being new, Bronstein
promised, "it is going to be the
best handbook ever to be issued
by the Student Government." !
In other business, All-University
President Jay Feldstein reported
on actions of the Senate Commit
tee on Student Affairs at its April
9 meeting. They included approval
of the Mineral Industries College
honor system, provisional approv
al of the Penn State Government
Association and approval of a,
charter for the Engineer's Club.
Lanny Day, chairman of the
flashcard committee, told Cabi
net that his committee had a
poor response to the question
aires sent to other colleges.
Only two colleges replied.
Day said that lack of informa
tion on a flashcard system has
hindered the committee's efforts
and that 800 questionaires will be
distributed on campus to deter
mine student interest in such a
nrogram. He said he thinks a
flashcard system at the new sta
dium is feasible.

less frequently or only when
there is a choice. At any rate, it
will not appear again for at least
six weeks, since menus are
planned about that far in advance.
Proffitt added that in planning
menus strict attention is paid to
!satisfying nutritional needs of ac
tive young people, cost, seasonal
'availability of foods and limita
tions of staff and equipment.
New recipes are - tested and
standardized in an experimen
tal kitchen before being placed
on the master menu. Although
each dining hall serves the
same food, efforts are made to
vpry menus as much as . pos
sible.

"Monday and Tuesday" foods.
Williams to Appear
In Schwab Tonight
Emlyn Williams, who will present Dylan Thomas' "A
Boy Growing Up," at 8:30 tonight in Schwab Auditorium,
discovered the theatre through the Dramatic Society at Ox
ford University.
There are no tickets rema
in the current Artists' Series.
Williams was still an under
graudate when his first play was
produced by the Oxford Play
house. He got his first acting job
in "And So To Bed," in London.
He later came to New York in
the same play.
The man who is known as ac
tor, playwright and director had
his first play, "Full Moon," pro
duced while still an undergi ad
uate. J. B. Fagan, who produced
the play for the Oxford Play
house, was the one who gave
Williams his acting start.
However, as is the plight of
many young actor-writers, it was
!a while before he really got start
led. With his performance in Ed
gar Wallace's "On The Spot," and
his staging of his own play, "A
Murder Has Been Arranged," he
iwas on his way.
One year later, in 1931, he start
ed his screen career as Lord Leb-

ning for the performance, 15th
anon in Wallace's "The Case of
the Frightened Lady."
His first real success in the
movies came to Williams as au
thor and star of "Night Must
Fall."
He has been seen in movies
and on the stage ever since. Only
five times in his career has he
acted in plays he did not write.
He appeared with the Old Vic
Company in "Measure for Meas
ure" and "Richard III."
He has also appeared in Ter
ence Rattigan's "The Winslow
Boy," Lillian Hellman's "Monser
rat" and Henrik lbsen's "The Wild
Duck."

"TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT"
The privileged and the under
privileged, the rich and the
poor—most of us have a tend
tency to divide mankind into
two classes. The man who
showed us how to do it was
Cervantes. In "Don Quixote",
he wrote:
"There ere only two fam
ilies in the world, the Haves
and the Have Nets."
"JACK SPRAT"
No, "Anon" didn't coin the
foinous quatrain concerning
the thin man and his peculiar
eating habits. Instead, it was
a certain John Clark in some
thing called, "Para emio
logia", written in 1639:
"Jack Sprat wilt eat no fat,
And Jill doth (eve no loon,
Yet betwixt them both
They lick the dishes clean."
