Ist Edition of La Critique
Debates University Goals
Six separate answers to the eternal question of "what
is a University?" make up the first issue of La Critique, on
sale today at the Hetzel Union desk and the Nittany News.
The conclusion seems to be that an institution of learn
ing "is more than Pattee's collection of books."
Police Hunt
Redifer Hall
Exhibitionist
Campus patrolmen are
searching for an exhibitionist
who was seen in Redifer Hall
on Sunday afternoon, Capt.
John F. Galaida, head of the
patrol, said yesterday.
There are no suspects in the
case, he said.
The patrol was called out
Sunday by a coed who saw a man
without clothing in a hallway in
Redifer. According to Col. Wil
liam C. Pelton, head of the De
partment of Security, the man
was -one when patrolmen ar
rived.
The man was seen going into the
men's room in the dining hall
where he reportedly took off his
clothes. He then went into the
hallway where the coed saw him,
Pelton said.
The patrol is taking additional
precautionary measures in the
case, Galaida said. He did not
want to reveal them since, he
said, it might hamper the patrol's
search.
Galaida said that this was the
first such incident reported to
the Campus Patrol this semester.
There were similar incidents last
fall when a boy was seen walking
around campus clad only in a
raincoat, according to Pelton.
On Monday, Leroy S. Austin,
associate dean of men, said that
the dean's office had not received
any reports about the incident
which occurred on Sunday.
John R. Juba, chief of the State
College police, said that no inde
cent exposure complaints had
been received by his office.

controversial matters by the
student body, faculty and ad

the subject, regardless of view
point will be printed."

1 Inside SGA
Williams Attacks
SGA Reorganization
Nancy Williams, U-Jr., said
last night that "Most of SGA
doesn't realize what Duane
Alexander is doing on SGA
reorganization and are accept
ing his decisions as unques
tionable."
"I've never seen his complete
plans in print. -
I'm hoping A.
sembly membr
will think cap
fully about ret
ganization sing
Duane has
powerful perso
ality and I'
afraid he mig)
be very persui
sive," she sai,
Miss Willia
said she dis
agreed with the miss wiiiisms
plans as they stand now." Com
munity living as a basis doesn't
seem to be the right way. What
we will get is another community'
council or AWS Senate, neither
of which has worked out."
Miss Williams added that no
one could give any opinions on
Alexander's reorganizatiOn he
cadse, everything.has been given
to them by hearsay and in vague
generalities.
Commenting on the DARE
(Direct Action for Racial Equal
ity) request for fraternities and
sororities to give an account
of their discriminatory clauses,
Miss Williams said she backed
the basic idea but disagreed
with the -iethods of carrying it
out.
"This movement should come
from within the groups and DAHE
should use more constructive
means to attain their • goal. I
don't think •SGA will support
their actions," she said.
Speaking on the recent SGA
bill supporting the administra
tion's view on the Peace Corps,
Miss Williams said the program
should be entirely elective.
•'She said she would have liked
to have seen more debate on this
bill and on other issues brought
before Assembly.
