In addition, the office of the dean of men put two men on disciplinary proba tion. The girl, a sophomore in liberal arts, made an unauthorized visit to the downtown apartment of a male student, according to Dor othy J. Lipp, dean of women. The girl, she added, was dis coyered missing when she was not present for a fire drill held in her residence hail. The student had a long record of minor offenses; Dean Lipp said, and was also on academic probation. The boy whose apartment she visited was already on probation with the dean of men and was placed on disciplinary probation by the committee, Leroy S. Au stin, associate dean of men, said yesterday. In another case, two students were' caught shoplifting in a store downtown were placed on sus pended suspension until June 1962, Austin reported. The case was referred to the subcommittee by the dean of men after the Pollock tribunal had handled the case and in a split decision recommended office pro bation for both students. These students can be suspend ed by the dean of men upon any further violations.

Army Smashes Venezuelan Rioting CARACAS, Venezuela (?P)— Crack army troops poured into the battle-strewn streets of Caracas last night to smash bloody and destructive rioting against , the government. President Rornulo Betancourt said the systematic waves of vio lence were launched by Commu nists and other leftists seeking to overthrow him and set up a Cas tro-style revolutionary regime in Venezuela.-- Even schoolboys subverted by the leftists were reported firing on police with pistols during the day. The fourth straight day of hoodlum attacks, without let up, prompted the Moderate So cialist President •Betancourt to call out the army and' suspend civil" guarantees.

Last spring, according to a statement issued by President Walker, Housing and Food Serv ice were finding increasing diffi culties in operating within their present budget. Diem stressed that "complete cooperation" of the students as well as "imaginative thinking" by his organization would be necessary to continue to keep the fees at the current rate. Diem cited the rising costs of raw food, labor and supplies be sides rising costs in general as the reason for considering a pos sible hike in fees. However, in the areas of heat, light and water, students can help, he added. Greater consideration of Uni versity property and greater care in the use of utilities could possibly provide enough sav• ings to avoid a future increase in fees, Diem said. Students should show the same consideration of University prop erty and furnishings as they do of their home furnishings, he said. Such a seemingly small thing as cutting across the lawn results in faster floor depreciation, hiring janitors to clean the mud from the floors and fixing up the grass in the spring, Diem said. Avoid ance of wasteful and inconsider ate action would he a saving, he said. Diem said that in view of in flation, the University has done an excellent job in "holding the line" and that his organization would continue to put forth ev ery effort to forestall an in crease. He would make no prediction as to a possible increase for the Tune or October quarters. The fees were increased in 1957 and now range from $702 to $BOl a year.

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE PA., TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 29. 1960 Prexy, Haber to Discuss Half-Holiday for 'Bowl' SGA President Richard Haber will meet with President Eric A. Walker today to discuss a possible half-holiday cancellation of classes on the Saturday of the Liberty Bowl. game. Haber said last night that he will follow Walker's advice on the question of bring ing the topic before SGA Assembly. Haber added that he believes last year's action in dec Out-of-Season Temperatures To End Today The out-of-season weather pat tern responsible for the unusually warm weather the past tw o weeks, will come to an abrupt end today. Scattered showers early today will give way to windy and much colder weather this afternoon and tonight. Snow flurries and squalls may develop late in the day and continue tonight. The mercury will begin a rapid drop during the late morning which should carry temperatures from the low 50's before noon down to the upper 30's by mid afternoon, and then below the freezing mark early tonight. Tonight's low will be about 25 and tomorrow's high should be near 34 degrees. Tomorrow will be partly cloudy, windy and con siderably colder. A severe storm system which developed in the Central section of the nation late Sunday prompt ed a major shift in weather con ditions over much of the nation. Blizzard conditions accompanied, by heavy snow, gale force winds and near zero temperatures swept across the Northern Plains and into the Western Great Lakes late yesterday and last night. The new weather regime that now dominates the weather pat tern will probably cause progres sively colder weather in this area during the next few days. The mercury may dip close to 20 de-1 grees tonight and possibly into , the teens tomorrow night. Budelman Will Address Business Group Tonight Alpha Kappa Psi, professional business fraternity, will hold its business meeting at 7 p.m. tonight at Delta Sigma Phi fraternity. Members of Phi Chi Theta, women's business sorority, will be guests of the group to hear Robert Budelman from the Fidel ity and Casualty Co. of New York City. His talk on "Fidelity Bonding A Stop-gap to Em ployee Dishonesty" will begin at 8 p.m. rgiatt By MEG TEICHHOLTZ bowl game set a precedent and that students would be willing to make up classes missed on the day preceding final examinations. "The bowl is as much of a Uni versity function as classes are," Haber said. Dr. Robert G. Bernreuter, spe cial assistant to the president for student affairs, told Haber yester day that if the students • wished to request the half-holiday it would • have to be through SGA action. Bernreuter later told the Col legian That it we's "unlikely the administration would approve such a holiday." He explained that students had requested the free day before finals for study and that making up classes on this day would defeat the pur pose of having such a free day. Another plan for the altering of Christmas vacation to permit attendance at the bowl game was advanced yesterday by Anthony Gitt, junior in electrical engineer ing from Springfield. Gitt is now petitioning for an extension of Christmas recess by three days. He would like to gee vacation begin on the Friday eve ning before the bowl game and suggests that the time missed could be made up by students re turning from vacation one day earlier and attending classes on the freeday before examinations. He said he has not found a way to make up the third day. Gitt's petitions are posted in the Hetzel Union building, War ing lounge and at his fraternity house, Sigma Alpha Mu. When Penn State hosted the: first Liberty Bowl game in Phila delphia last year students were given a half-holiday. Saturday) morning classes were cancelled and the classes missed were made , up on the morning of the free day: just preceding final examination', week. Last year, however, Christmas; recess was to have begun that same Saturday afternoon and with the added holiday it began Friday evening. Christmas vacation does not begin until Wednesday after noon after the bowl game this year.
