The general theme will. be divided into three categories nursery rhymes, legends, and children's stories. In adhering to the theme, groups no longer have to enter the same category for the float !parade and the carnival. The three themes will be used as the bases for the skits which will be presented at the carni val. An additional category of games has been added to the carnival. These will be games of skill with no gambling de vices permitted. Robert Wayne. carnival chairman, said that small prizes will be permitted, but there will no return of money, or monetary prizes.

A plan !has been made, subject to Sen late subcommittee approval, pro loosing that a 3-cent refund be !made on each 10 cent ticket col lected This would mean that groups ;could recovel. their $25 irthejrcol lected at least 833 tickets. Any ;money received from tickets over !this number could be used to de fray some of the cost of the car nival booth and the float Eight hundred fifty tickets will be reauired to earn the maximum 250 points for tick ets. The number required last year was 1250. As in the past, no money will be refunded for tickets until the grounds are cleaned. If the grounds are not cleaned satisfac torily, the individual group will lose any money that it may have recovered The floats and the carnival skits will be judged on the basis of good taste, adherence to theme, originality and tickets.

Threat of New Snow Continues to Exist in The possibility of another snow storm within the next two days continues to exist for Central Pennsylvania. Sunny skies and somewhat warmer temperatures helped melt most of the snow and ice that covered about half of Centre County's roads yesterday morning. However, many side roads were still snow covered at sundown yesterday. A strong outbreak of arctic air will cause considerably colder weather to return to this area to night and tomorrow. This will prevent further melting of snow during the next few days. A storm system, located in the Gulf of Mexico, poses a threat of more snow for this area late to night and tomorrow. The forecast is for mostly tends from the time preferential bids are signed until the rushees are ribboned. During this period no word can be exchanged be tween a sorority woman and a rushee except 'hello', Miss Gil liland said. The Council elected Tri Opus sorority to be a Panhellenic mem ber.
