PAGE TWO Alexander, Foianini Rally Against ROTC Two candidates fOr student body president began vigorous campaigning today for abolition of compulsory ROTC. Dennis Foianini, Campus party, and Duane Alexander,' independent, both sponsored groups of sign-waving students in front of Wagner. Foianini's signs read "Tired of, R.0.T.C.? Vote Campus for Ac tion!" Alexander's platform calls for student action on the Air Force scholarship bill now before Congresswhich would makes ROTC completely voluntary by `September 1963. Foianini, who remained at the site of demonstration in order to personally present his views to passers-by, stated "College students should not be indoctri nated here at school." He had petitions available for' signature which called for the, University to put ROTC on a vol untary basis. Foianini said that he "plans to present the signed netitions to the University Sen ate for immediate action." "This is how I intend to act if I am elected student body pres lident," Foianini stated. "I will ( take a definite stand on all issues and appeal directly to the stu dents!! he added. Whin Alexander was asked why he did not use an action similar to Foianini's petition, he stated that he did •not believe it was necessary at this time. "Since the-Air Force is making this proposal, I think the Univer sity will put off any action at the, present time," Alexander said last, night. _"Our chances look good es pecially if students support the plan in the ways I have proposed, in my platform," he continued. / Alexander's proposals include al "massive letter campaign to Con 'gress in support of the air Force, 'scholarship) bill" and a trip to be, taken by himself to Washington as a student representative "to speak to our Congressmen and secure their votes for the bill." Lipp Recommends Vacation Rushing For Sororities By JOAN MEHAN A concentration of the rush ing program at the end of the fall term will be in the best interest of the sorority sys tem's long range development, according to Dorothy J. Lipp, dean of women. Speaking informally before the Panhellenic Council Tuesday night Dean Lipp said that rush ing when the University is not in session would eliminate the "free for the ride type of rushee who is rushing just for' the ex perience." The council is considering three rush code proposals. Two of the proposals call for concentrating rush at the end of the fall term when classes are not in session. The third proposal calls for the rushing program to be concen trated at the beginning of the winter term. Dean Lipp said that the ad vantages of holding rush when classes are not in session are that rushing costs would be lowered, the period would be shortened, and it would not take time away from studying. She recommended that the council try to "figure out ways to overcome the disadvantages in the proposal and not to look for flaws." Some of the objections council members had to this proposal were that sorority women and rushees would have to pay addi tional room and board costs for the extra time on campus and would probably have to use pub lic transportation to get home for vacation.

STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA JR's to Be Orientation Counselors Both junior residents and specially - selected orientation leaders will serve as guides to 'freshmen women during Orientation Week next Sep tember, according to Mrs. Nancy M. Vanderpool, assistant Ito the dean of women. It was the decision of the dean of women, Dorothy J. Lipp, to use junior residents as counselors for freshmen, Mrs. Vanderpool said. Formerly members of wom en's hat societies and specially selected counselors have done this, she said. Junior residents will instruct freshman women about AWS residence ball regulations and life within the dorms. The orientation leaders, select ed because of outstanding scholar ship and participation in activi ties, will talk with freshmen con cerning University traditions, campus activities and, scholarship. Mrs. Vanderpool said that the new program will provide more continuity throughout the year, since junior residents will be liv ing on the same floor as their counselees and will have continu ous contact with them throughout the year. Throughout the year, junior residents will meet with their groups for further discussion and counseling on aspects of campus life stressed during Orientation Week, she said. In addition, orientation leaders may also meet with their coun selees throughout the semester, Mary Sue Hersey, women's orien tation co-chairman, said last night.
