r System
The system will be put into
effect next fall and will include
only juniors and seniors. It will
be installed on an individual cur
riculum basis. Each curriculum
will have the privilege to suspend
the system with the approval of
the department head, the dean of
the college, the Senate Committee
on Student Affairs, or the Honor
[Council.
Cases of alledged academic
dishonesty will appear before
an Honor Council, which will
consist of one student from the
MI Student Council and one
student from each participating
curriculum.
The Honor Council will also ac
quaint underclassmen with the
system and prepare them for par
ticipation.
According to the charter, exams
' will be taken without the pres
ence of a professor or official
proctor. The charter states "After
(passing out the exam papers and
allowing sufficient time for prop
er questiods regarding the exam,
the professor in charge shall leave
the examination room, returning
at the end of the exam to pick up,
the papers."
Students who chose to par
ticipate in the honor system are
expecied to fulfill certain re
sponsibilities. During an exam,
if cheating by one individual is
discovered by another, the stu
dent is to warn the individual
to stop cheating.
If the cheating does not stop,'
the student is obligated to report,

Lois Piercy Wins
Beauty Contest Title
Lois Piercy, senior in education from Springfield, was
chosen Miss Centre County last night in Bellefonte.
Miss Piercy wore a pink, full-length gown. She will re-' I
ceive a gubernatorial scholarship—the largest prize ever to be
given to a Miss Centre County winner—an evening gown,
bathing suit and an all-expense
paid trip to West Chester for the
state finals in June,
When asked if she thought 20
was the right age to marry, she
said, "I guess I'll have to wait—
I'm already 20."
Miss Piercy told Joe Smiley,
master of ceremonies, that she en
tered the contest again this year
because she had so much fun in
the last one.
The five finalists participated
in bathing suit, evening gown and
talent competition and were also
interviewed.
Miss Piercy displayed a paint
ing entitled "Night Rain on the
City" and played an original corn
position on the flute.
First runner-up was Patricia

"The Soviet government sees
no other possibility than the con
clusion of a peace treaty with
the two German states," he said,
"and, if a German confederation'
is formed at the moment of the
signature of the peace treaty, then

well." •
The immediate reaction of
the United States was disap

proposed draft treaty Jan: .10.
That draft was rejected at the

Ed Moran, Penn State track
captain, finished a disappointing
third in 4:09.5. Walter's second
place time was 4.08.2.
Dellinger, formerly of Ore
gon, fought off Walters just be
fore the finish line. Walters had
taken over the lead from 8 tir
ing Moran.
Moran had jumped into the
lead 220 yards from home, but
tired perceptibly and finished
third.
Moran. the hope of the East,
was shooting for a sub 4-minute
mile, and track experts thought
that this was the night he might
do it. He ran a 4:02.1 in a dual
meet against Michigan State last
week but dropped seven seconds
below that on the Coliseum's grass
track here tonight.
Penn State's underdog two
mile relay team ran their fast
est time-ever, but lost the race
to Stanford in the final lap.
Stanford's anchor man, Ernie
Conliffe, overcame a short lead
which the Niltany Lions' Chick
King had on the last lap io

Southern * California finished
third in the relay going the dis
tance in 7:32.2.
Southern Cal had jumped to
the lead during the first 880 with
Stanford trailing in second and
Penn State third. Running strong,
the USC thinclads built up a
wide lead over Stanford with
,Penn State far back in• third
'after the next two laps. '
But by the time the Lions Dick
Engelbrmk took the baton for
the third time, Stanford had
pulled into first. Engelbrink stuck
right with them, passing the Tro
'jan runner and with a burst of
speed took a momentary lead
near the end of the leg and then
the anchor men King and Con
liffe hooked up in a stirring duel
to the finish. Conliffe had a small
lead and King couldn't overhaul
the Stanford 'speedster, finishing
a step behind.
