Defeats Bill SGA Interest THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Membership Clause Cut By Liberals The Liberal Party in two meetings last night, lasting a Bookstore Proposal . Approved by SGA SGA Assembly last night unanimously approved a bill that asserts the "immediate and imperative need for a University bookstore" and will sub nit the bill to the Board of Trustees for consideration at its Jan. 6 meeting. The bill was submitted by Ed gar Grubb, (U-Sr.). Robert Harri son, (U-Jr.) and John Witmer, (U-Jr.) on the basis of Theodore Simon's "research paper" on the need for such a bookstore. In speaking for the bill, Wit mer gave three reasons for its passage. "Other schools and all other Penn State Campuses have such stores," he said. He added, that our growing enroll ment, expected to .reach 25,000 by 1970, makes existing facili ties inadequate and that the profits from this store would be used for the good of the students, rather than going in to the profits of stores down town. Assembly did not, however, agree to send a copy of Simon's report to the trustees because many members had not read it. Simon had said• earlier in the discussion that his report, which was done officially for the Junior He'll have more power dreamed of, When he's a man, he'll use four times the power you have today—electric power, in great abundance and still at a low price. That's why hundreds of independent electric companies, like yours, are working now to double the power they supply America in the next ten years. And they plan to redouble it in the ten after that. Already, Americans use more electricity than the next six countries put together. One of the reasons is that the job of supplying most of our nation's power is in the hands of people and businesses— rather than governments, as in most of the world. Yet certain people want to change this American system. They keep urging our government to spend billions more of your tax dollars—quite unnecessarily —to get farther into the electric business. You have paid a share of the 55,000,000,000 of tax money spent on this so-called "public power" already. This needless federal spending can be curbed— when enough people know what's going on. Make sure that your friends and neighbors have the facts. That will help.

I The Assembly also adopted a resolution requesting the SGA I president to present a written report to the Assembly on the current status of ROTC, food service, town housing and AM facilities for WDFM. Presented by Wayne Ulsh (I-Jr.), the resolution calls for, :in effect, a State of the Union message similar to the one pre- Isented by the President of the United States. Richard Briber's !report is due on the first meeting iof the Assembly in January. A letter concerning an Execu tive Secretary for SGA. brought before the Assembly by John Brandt, senior in Physics from Rochester, N.Y., was submitted to . the Reorganization an d Evaluation Committee to fur ther study its implementation.
