booths was reported. The drizzle
soon stopped and the shows con
tinued.
A spontaneous jam-session by
the approximately 40 musicians
at the carnival started around
11:30. After a few people had
gathered at the Acacia and Al
pha Delta Pi booth, the session
was announced by the Spring
Week Committee and the group
swelled.
The musicians later took to the
march and paraded around the
carnival grounds. The session
ended about 11:50.
Bright colors, just as in the
float parade, highlighted the
night. That, and sparkling
shows, brought the student to
many of the booths.
Two booths had long lines out
side most of the night.
Because their show was so
lengthy and there was still a long
line near the end of the night,
Kappa Kappa Gamma and Alpha
Sigma Phi (the Travels of Marco
Polo) moved their show outside
and gave a free performance.
Flashing signs and elaborate
fronts on some of the booths
gave the midway a plush look.
The Zodiac Club, Tau Kappa
Epsilon and Alpha Omicron Pi,
had a flashing sign and the
signs of the Zodiac on the
front.
Many of the groups utilized
pieces of their floats and regular
carnival tents.
Epstein said he and Juri Niiler,
chairman of the week, would
make spot checks on financial re
ports today. He said they had not
suspicions but were doing it be
cause it is in the rules.
The winners in each of the di
visions—Greek and Roman, the
Middle Ages and the 20th Cen
tury—will be announced at
Awards Night Wednesday. Tick
ets for the event, starring Chris
Connor and. the Kai Winding Sep
tet, are available at the Hetzel
Union desk.

A RIGHT TO THE BODY The method of smash ing the Outing Club car is demonstrated by mem
bers of the club in their Spring Week Carnival B ooth. The booth was a popular one throughout the
evening; many people seemed to take out their p ent-up feelings on the car.
Carnival Sidelights:
Noise, Competition
A carnival means noise—and in this respect the Spring
Week Carnival Saturday night lived up to all expectations.
Noise, color, screams and pleading barkers all made their
appearance for five hours. And the barkers knew their
business.
They spared no expense; no line was too low if it drew
part of the 12,000-person crowd
into their booth.
Had the barkers been an honest
lot—not that they really lied—ev
ery show on the midway would
have closed almost be i ore it
opened.
One barker, in an effort to be
different than the others, claim
ed his show was the only one
where the girls were complete
ly dressed. No statistics ar e
available on how well they did.
Careful observation showed
some people (mostly shor t f -
change-men) standing in front of
the same show for more than an
hour. Every once in a while (us
ually just after an attractive dance
by a half-dozen coeds) their faces
would drop, only to light up with
the start of the next performance.
For those with the means to go
inside there were many surprises.
Imagine the shock and disillusion
ed feeling of those who have wor
shiped Walt Disneyls Tinker Bell.
How their faith must have been
crushed to discover she was six
feet tall and had hairy legs.
And lovers of Tennessee Wil
liams' "A Streetcar Named De
sire" must have been despaired
to discover Stella was in reali
ty a 250-pound shrew whose
only desire was to stop her hus
band from going to college and

One booth used as its outside
attraction a student fire-swallow
er and a champion baton twirler.
It kept a large crowd outside the
booth but did it help the ticket
collection?

ernment Association officers
will each receive $250.
The original budget presented
to Cabinet last week was referred
back to the finance committee
upon the recommendation of Ju
dy McFarland, former Women's
Recreation Association president.
Miss McFarland said she did not
think compensations should be
given for chairing or participat
ing in an activity.
Cabinet' members suggested
that the committee try to imple
ment an expense account for ac
tivities instead of fixed compen
sations, if the committee could
not eliminate several of them.
The total budget amount has
been set at $23,000 which cor
responds to the estimated in
come for the year from student
fees, Senior Ball, Junior Prom
and Student Handbook.
Along with the reduction in
compensations, several increases
have been made over last week's
proposed budget. The increases
are SGA Secretariat, $4OO instead
of $365; Public Relations Commit
tee, $lOO instead of $5O: and
Class Night, $4OO instead of $l5O.
In other business, the Assem
bly will hear reports from the
Cabinet Public Relations Com
mittee, Library Expansion Com
mittee and the Disaster Planning
Committee. Nominations for the
Rules Committee will also be
made.

Words to Spare--

but it seems to me that much
of this color is going by the
boards. The University frowns
on too many things now, and
even without this official dis
approval I guess studert have
little time for much else than
studying now.
But no mat ter what the
cause, imagination seems at a
premium now, and the fun ap
pears slowly to be draining out
of college life.
I hope the University doesn't
pressure students of the future
out of having fun, and I hope
students don't get too lazy or
placid to stop trying. I'd hate
to see Penn - State become an
educational factory--and that's
what will happen if all the col
or washes out.
University Will Publish
Philosophy Prof's nook
"Philosophy and Argument" by
Henry W. Johnstone, Jr., asso
ciate professor of philosophy,
will be published on May 1 by
the Pennsylvania State Univer
sity Press.
In his book, Johnstone, who re
gards argumentation as funda
mental to philosophical inquiry,
presents a study of the role of
argumentation in philosophy and
of the principles according to
which the arguments of philoso
phers may be evaluated.
