Survey Shows Increase in Faculty Pay By SANDY YAGGI Facility salaries the University have increased more than eight per cent during the past year, according to a recent survey made by the Penn State chapter of the Ameri. Can Association of University Professors. The - AAUP's questionnaire this year polled about 60 per cent of the faculty. The sur-' vey was directed by R. WallaFe Brewster, professor of political science and member, of the AAUP. • I As a result of last year's sur vey the University's salary scale' received a rating of "D 7 from the AAUP. • s•University , salary scales • are . given a , rating of AA, A, B, C, D or by, the. national , organization. This rating does not attempt rate academic quality,. Brewster said, but merely the salaries. Twto criteria are used to determine the rating: ! the minimum Salary for each position and the average salary..Theexact figures for these varies from year. to year. • The salary increases 'for this year appear to be too small for the • University's salary scale to overtake the rising nation-wide trend and it seems unlikely, ac cording, to It Wallace Brewster's committee that a "Cu rating can be achieved this year. - On a 9:naonth,basis, the average forel-unner of the Mil salary reported by full professors was $9,506; by aqsnciate! profes sors, $7,699; by assistant : profes sors, $6,410; and by instructors, $5,372. The comparable figures for last year Were: full professors; $8,759; associate professors, $7,098; 'as sistant professors, $5,981; ,and in structors, $4,962. Last year more than 70 per ,cent of the' faculty participated in the salary' survey. NO IMPROVEMENT has been made this year in the ratio of the average salaies 'paid the ; various academic ranks. The average salary received by a full profes sor continues to be 1.77 times the average salary received by an in structor. . The recommendation of the AAUP is that full professors should receive two and one-half times the salary of an instructor.

Ball wlts provided by "The Stopper and Fish Orchestra" of Williamsport. One year later, The Free Lance, predecessor of The' Daily Collegian, referred to the 1894 senior dance as the 'Senior Military Hop. The paper ieported, "This is the first military hop and it is hoped it will not be the last." NO FURTHER - MILITARY HOPS - were held until thespring of 1921, when the.. Scabbard and Blade Society sponsored a dance for mem bers only. : - Plans for a military dance are reported in The Daily Collegian, Feb. 20, 1923, urging all college attendance. From this year to 1941; a military dance was an annual campus social function. Three "coed colonels" were chosen for the first time in 1931,noting the birth of the pres ent day military qiieen contest. The Military Ball took its present form in 1947 and bascontinued to be an annual campus social function. .
