Bookstore Story
Never before has there been an idication of a lack of
student-faculty communication, than there has been' in
the recent Bookstore episode.
Administrators are saying that the student committee
did not give the Board of Trustees what they were told
to give them. Committee mem
bers are saying that they gave
them exactly what was asked
of them
Somebody is wrong—if not
lying.

The allogation that the com
mittee did not show the Board
of Trustees what the student
body expected a bookstore to
stock is rather laughable.
It appears that no one has
read the original report that
the committee handed to SGA.
A careful study was made of
the student body to determine
what the students wanted. An
almost too careful study.
Hours upon hours were spent
checking a student sample for
questionnaires. And even more
hours were spent in collecting
the questionnaires.
If anyone would bother to
read the report, it not only
states what the students want,
but the percentages of the stu
dents who wanted various
things.
On the basis of high school
records, 1200 spots in advanced
courses were held for incoming
freshmen with many of th e
new college students filling
more than one spot.
The students participating in
the harder courses did as well
and often better than those
classmates who had the intro
ductory courses, the study re
vealed. .

Philadelphia Mayor Rich

years of the Dilworth Admin

These scandalous activities
came to light about a month
ago when it was discovered
that a prominent contractor
had been giving graft to per
sons high in Philadelphia's
City Hall.
The mayor on European tour
during the early investigations
of the scandal refused to re
turn home immediately. How

Dilworth h,

sometimes clumsy and awk

inability to originally prevent
the gift-giving seems likely to
cost him the governorship.
Dilworth was bypassed for
the gubernatorial nomination
in 1958 because he advocated
the then un-popular idea of

the end of the Dilworth-Clark
wing of the Democratic party.
Clark booted the GOP from
Philadelphia's City Hall after
67 years of rule in 1950, and
was a major force in convert
ing the formerly-Republican
state of Pennsylvania into a
Democratic haven.
Senator Clark has been po
litically hot since he openly
opposed th e nomination of
John Kennedy at the Demo
cratic Convention last summer.
He supported the President
during the campaign, but has
been uncooperative at times in
Congress.
Clark's antagonism of Presi
dent Kennedy and Dilworth's
disagreements with Democrat
ic-boss Bill Green have high
lighted the recent trouble of
the Dilworth-Clark wing.
But, before the eruption of
trouble in Philadelphia's City
Hall neither Dilworth nor Clark
was considered a lame duck.
Now, however, Bill Green, who
is vacationing in Europe until
the smoke clears and the ashes
settle, seems sure to demand
unscorched politicians for the
Democratic gubernatorial and
senatorial nominations in 1962.
