30 Editors
Asked To
Back Budget
A letter has been sent to
about 30 newspaper editors in
the state by SGA’s “Back the
Budget” committee asking
editorial support for President
Eric A. Walker’s $23.1 million
appropriation request Kay Mills,
a committee member, said yester
day.
It is part of the committee’s
program aimed at getting sup
port throughout Pennsylvania for
the University’s proposed budget,
Miss Mills said.
The committee was recently
organized to conduct a campaign
to support Walker’s appropriation
request for the University.
The letter gives background
information on the situation in
cluding the amount appropria
tion request, why the students
are backing Walker's budget
and what the committee is doing
to support him.
The committee suggests that
students could write to their
hometown papers and state legis
lators urging their support.
The committee plans to send
information to newspapers to
make the editors realize what ef
fect smaller appropriations might
have on the state, Miss Mills said.
Voting on the. budget in the
state legislature will be later than
originally thought. Miss Mills
said that the bill might not come
up until April.
Lambda Chi Conclave
The annual Atlantic Conclave
of Lambda Chi Alpha, social fra
ternity, will be held today and to
morrow.
Melvin Bunson, sophomore in
business administration, and
Thomas Wunderlich, sophomore
in mechanical engineering, are
co-chairmen of the conclave.
Food Service Plans
Summer Schedule
By ELLIE HUMMER
Despite the smaller num
ber of students to feed during
the summer, Food Services
has plenty to do over this
period.
According to Robert C. Proffitt,
director of Food Services, the
summer is used as a clean-up, fix
up time for the dining halls and
equipment.
As soon as the students leave,
the painters, plumbers and elec
tricians do jobs which are impos
sible during the school session,
he said. This is possible because
the students attending summer
sessions are grouped in one area,
thus closing many dining halls,
he explained.
This summer will be no ex
ception, he said, with all the
summer term students eating in
Waring Dining Hall in the West
Halls. This area was chosen be
cause it is the most convenient
location for the majority of
students, Proffitt said.
Another reason for the choice
is that last summer when Waring
wasn’t utilized for feeding, Food
Service was able to do most of
the needed repairs and replace
ments, according to Proffitt. As
a result, it will not need much
