PAGE TWO K , h ~. n Florida or Bust w„ *'<> Students Prepare To Invade South s By KAREN HYNECKEAL | Looked at the “Out of State” ride sheet lately? You j say you can’t find anyone who’s going to your hometown, |! Soveniskyville, over Easter. Well, no wonder every-1 body’s going to Ft, Lauderdale! | The boys are going to see if there really is a nightclub fea-1 turing a curvacious mermaid in a water tank. After all, there was ||j one in the movie, “Where the Boys Are.” ||! And the girls are going because the boys are going. At least, f|j that’s what singer Connie Francis says. - At any rate, everybody’s heading south this month to escape the snow, the monsoons, blue books and whatever else has plagued them. Preparations for the mass exodus have al ready begun. One group is trying to charter a plane for the trip. Another gang is working on a bus. And everyone is pestering Dad for the car —"lt’s good to unwind the ole motor a bit after all that city traffic.” Those who have managed to get transpor- m (alion are trying to lure others to join them. mu» Hyn«ck«»i p The Collegian’s “Wanted” column is getting fuller every day. || Most of those who are going by car plan to travel all night jj and all day. Even at that, it'll be at least a 36-hour trip. One 1 fellow plans to do his term paper and read "The Sound and the || Fury" for English 133 on the way down. Some people are really organized and have written for rales and reservations. One girl was ecstatic the other day when the w “Promised Land” motel wrote that their rooms were only $lO a day. She almost died at the next two words “per person.” And there will always be the non-planners who just like to pack up and go. “After all, there’ll be plenty of places to stay.”'' Most likely, they’ll have to write Mom and Dad that “Yes, we found a place. It’s the “Haven on the Beach. Really nice, too, right by the ocean.” What io take? That’s the- next big problem facing the Florida-bound. Most girls plan to wear summer bermudas ; under their wool skirts and discard the latter somewhere around South Carolina. Even the Sophomore Class Advisory Board has recognized the wanderlust in the air and is now working on an organized trip south. Yes, it seems as if everyone is echoing the words found on pi one North Halls bulletin board: “Florida or Bust.” Male Four-some Invades Women's Residence Hall By PHYLLIS HUTTON Some male students do not seem to realize that Pollock 4 residence hall is restricted exclusively to women and is definitely OFF LIMITS to all men—that is, with the excep tion of janitors. On a Saturday night about six weeks ago several men desiring blind dates decided to pick the girls out personally, so they wan dered through the first and sec ond floors of Pollock 4. They were greeted with giggles and screams and soon a game of hide and seek developed. After a chase up and down the stairs and elevators, the four were cornered by the night hostess who told them that the campus patrol was on its way. The four men decided it was time to leave and fled beforo lhe campus patrol arrived. Last Saturday night niter 1 a.m STATE THEATRE, Stale College, Pa.

Barging in her room they de manded to know whether they were on the fourth floor. Startled and amazed she replied in her southern accent that “no, you all've got three more to go."

PENNSYLVANIA Inside SGA Stronger Leadership Suggested by Rilling A reorganized SGA must be planned to serve the Uni versity now as well as the next ten years, according to Ruth Rilling, (U-Jr). “Penn State’s growing; we have to plan something last- ing," she said. Miss Rilling, who is a member of the SGA Reorganization Com mittee, said that in the future, student government will demand stronger executive leadership. “The person who heads it must be prepared top accept a revised l' plan and build > up SGA,” she When the Uni versity is orient ed to the four term plan effec tive this sum- mer, Miss Rilling said, reorganiza- tion needs will be recog niz e d more easily and can be worked out. It is unlikely that a new plan will go into effect this semester, Miss Rilling said. Presently the committee is organizing data by interviewing faculty and students on flaws in the present SGA and on ideas for a future form of government. The committee is also meeting with the Senate Sub-Committee on Organizational Control, which is acting in an advisory capacity, to formulate the best plan, Miss Rilling said, A proposed structure would then go before the Assembly it self for approval, she said, and finally to the Senate sub-com mittee for final recognition. The present SGA structure will be reviewed by the Senate committee- on Student Affairs within the next few months. “Whether or not this plan is V/istj 'SJdHW mi/ o^m(£kahY@i?ds And a Fine Selection of Easter Cards Too! look for them at McLanahan's Self Service 414 i. College Ave. By CAROL KUNKLEMAN approved after operating for its two-year trial, the fact remains that we definitely need a student government and our new plan must assure students we will have one," Miss Rilling said. Several plans are being con sidered by the committee, she said. They will be flexible and allow for constitutional amend ments as the University adjusts to new concepts in the future, she said. Commenting on the future of political parties under a reorgan ized government, Missßilling said that they may be able to function similarly to the way they now do under SGA. Metal Expert to Speak Mlsa Rilling Dr. Horace J. Grover, of the Battelle Memorial Institute Columbus, Ohio, an authority on the fatigue of metals, will speak at a special Engineering Mechan ics Seminar to be held at 1:15 p.m. Monday in 208 Hammond. STOCKHOLDERS MEETING ...SATURDAY STYLE The Bob Borleys and the Gus Fuhrmans—shown working on a Saturday morning project in Bob’s house~are friends and neighbors who own shares in one of Americas inde pendent electric companies. They are typical of the 4,000,000 Americans who own these companies. Your electric company, for example, is owned by people much like yourself. Perhaps you have some shares. If not, you are likely an indirect owner through your life insurance or savings account, or if you are in a pension plan" or mutual fund. Insurance companies, banks, and other institutions invest in electric company securities. The independent companies serve 4 out of 5 American homes and businesses. They have kept the price of elec tricity down while almost everything else goes up. They build billions of dollars worth of new power plants a year— paying investors for the use of their money, and producing around $2 billion a year in taxes besides. Isn’t it strange that some people are trying to change all this? They want the federal government to take over more of the electric business. Already more than $5,000,000,000 of taxpayers’ money has gone into this and billions more are asked. Wouldn’t it be wiser to leave this job to the independent electric companies who are ready and able to do it all’ WEST PENN POWER tnvnfef*Mi!M, ta*s«,tna~**,avtnfl WttUm' fhmvmiih FRIDAY.
