'Raid' Results in Arrests The State Liquor Control Board arrested six University students at The Townhouse Friday night when an "open inspection" revealed 12 minors present among the 160 patrons. 6 arrested students were "caught drinking beer" a Borough official said yester they will be called in for a hearing within the next week If the students plead guilty to; the charges of entering and beingll served at an establishment li censed by the Liquor Control Board, the fine will be a minimum of $25 plus $9 costs, Justice of the Peace William P. Bell said yesterday. The six officials from the Li quor Control Board in Altoona were assisted by the State Col lege Borough police in the "open inspection" Friday night, The clay and Studies Disclose Parking Revenue Climbs in Bore Despite the free night park ing experiment in the down town area, recent studies re vealed that the Borough park ing revenue actually increased in comparison to the same four month period last year, when me ters were in effect every eve ning. The experiment in free night parking which began April 1 end ed Tuesday and studies of the re sults of the experiment are now being completed. THE OFFICIAL revenue re ports showed that the increase in revenue from April to June was $1,179.60. The downtown parking meters are again collecting nickels but merchants in the area agreed at a recent committee meeting of the Chamber of Commerce to seek a renewal of the free meter parking at night. The increase in parking revenue was attributed in part to the num ber of conventions at the Univer sity this summer, to the increased traffic due to the enrollment of more students for the summer term and to the three new parking lots in the downtown area. THE FREE NIGHT trial park ing was part of the downtown merchants plan to help compete I with the all day free parking at' the new shopping centers outside' the Borough. Further reports on the parking revenue are expected to give such information as how long any one car remained parked in a specific area when free meter parking was in effect. The results of the trial period are expected to be presented at the Borough Council meeting on Monday. STATE COLLEGE, PA.. THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 3. 1961 THE INVESTIGATORS will make a report to the Liquor Con trol Board and from that evidence presented the licensee may have its liquor permit revoked. The Liquor Control Board "has no case against the minors but against the licensee," an official said, The six students violated a Borough Ordinance which states that "it is unlawful for minors to enter or be served on any prem ises in the Borough of State Col lege, licensed by the Pennsylva nia Liquor Control Board." THE MANAGER and owner of the Townhouse, George Homich, said that all matriculation and se lective service cards are checked at the door. Homich said he thought only three had been arrested and that "apparently these three cards weren't checked." Leßoy S. Austin, assistant to the dean of men, said that at pres ent no disciplinary action is' planned against th:. students. He' said that they will "wait and see what action is taken by the police and State Liquor Control Board." AUSTIN SAID that the dean of men's office has not yet been given the names of the students involved in the liquor violation. The names of the students will probably be released after the hearing early next week, Justice of the Peace William P. Bell said. Kutler to Talk on Court Dr. Stanley I.

Fulmer, R-Centre, said last night that lit! would not vote for the 2 per cent tax on rents, royalties and dividends in its present form. This bill, which was proposed by the Governor's special bi-partisan committee on education, is scheduled for con sideration in the House sometime next week. Fulmer said he found little enthusiasm among his con stituents for a bill that would place a tax on dividends from savings, "There are those who feel we should not penalize thrift, he added WHEN THE BILL reaches the floor of the House, he said, there is a good possibility that several amendments will, be proposed to redefine certain parts that will exclude taxes to be paid on divi dends from savings and loans. In an attempt to make his posi-1 tion clear in this matter, Fuliner said that "there isn't any educa tion tax, contrary to what they Governor repeatedly says." There; is no such thing as a tax which is earmarked solely for educa tion, he added There are two present funds, he continued, the highway fund budget and the general fund ,budget. If the bill i 3 passed, reve-I nue from it would go into thel latter fund. It would then be up! to the General Assembly to make all the necessary appropriations. 1 IN THE OTHER HALF of thcd ,assembly, Sen. Jo Hays, D-Centre, said he felt the bill stands a bet ter than even chance for passage, because he believes that thej House thinks education has some needs. Hays said he was not awaret of any talk to amend the bill. He' added, however, that if any amendments cut down its pos sible revenue by a substantial! amount the bill would be worth-1 'less. Hays is chairman of the Gover.! nor's committee which propose& this bill, among others, for edu-' cation. IN COMMENTING on any pos sible substitutions if this bill is not passed, Fulmer said that he and; the Speaker of the House havei been working for some weeks to get the Sales and Used Tax Bur-! eau to take action on a resolution to obtain information on itemsi ,which are not taxed now either by law or regulation. They could replace the ones called for in the 2 per cent tax bill. Thus far no report has been', received from the Bureau. "Ap parently, he added, the Adminis- ! tration does not see . fit to provide! us with this information." att By MAXINE FINE Campus Directors Propose Change For Admissions (See Related Editorial) A proposed change in the : new admission policy for sev eral of the University's Com monwealth Campuses wa s presented to the University i Senate yesterday by Campus The resolution asks for the ad pittance of high school graduates ,below the first-fifth of their class :to the Campuses on an experi mental basis in the summer terms. THIS RESOLUTION and two others passed by directors of the Commonwealth Campuses at the Behrend Campus Workshop meet ing on July 18 and 19 were re ferred to the Senate Committee on Education, Dr. Robert G. Bernreuter, sec retary of the Senate and dean of admissions, said that the change in policy was requested because the directors felt that the Cam puses were functioning as "com munity colleges" and should not be held to the regulations of the University Park. BEGINNING THIS FAL L, Bernreuter said, the University will admit without examination only Pennsylvania residents who were in the first-fifth of their graduating class. This summer, he added, the policy is as it has been in the past—Pennsylvania students in the first and second fifths of their class have been admitted w ithout 'examinations, The other resolutions passed by the directors asked that an Asso ciate degree be conferred to indi cate successful completion of a minimum of 60 credits in an ap proved program of collegiate level above the secundaiy school and that a maximum number of credits to earn an Associate degree be es tablished.
