. ' * * ?. PAGE FOUR Editorial Opinion Pitch—Don't Pinch Although pitching pennies and pinching pennies sound quite a bit alike, there is an immediate recognition of the difference between the two.! . Beginning Monday we uijge all students to stop pinch ing pennies and begin pitching them into the bowl which displays a picture of their favorite professor. For on Monday the contest begins to select the campus concept of cartoonist Dick Bibler's amiable Prof Snaxf. This campaign to find the; favorite professor on campus will last from Monday through Friday. Voting bowls will be placed along the Mall and in the HUB. The contest is sponsored by the local group of the World University Service (W|US), an international student organization that aids students in the underdeveloped nations of Asia, Africa and: South America. The-pennies collected during the Prof Snarf contest will be added to those amounts collected at other American colleges and universities anld the accumulation will be sent to students in areas where educational facilities and opportunities are slim. Educational needs in these areas are immense. There is an urgent need for professors, buildings, books and hospital facilities—all of which require funds. WUS provides as many of these facilities as it finds financially possible. By voting in the Prof Snarf contest students will be doing more than honoring their favorite professor. They will be aiding fellow students who are not fortunate enough to have a HUB or a Mall or a library.

As I have| al ways been against dress regu lations which actually areata a mars student, deprive a Stu dent of the right to be respon sible for his own appearance, and intensify a feeling of '‘out rage and impotence’' tojwgrd the school and administration, •I managed to put through MRC a resolution that an opinion poll should be taken of fall students as to their feelihgs toward the dress code. ! j This action on my part was prompted by the, fact i that Raymond O. Murphy, assistant dean of men. told the assem bled MRC that the dean; of men's office had not created the dress code, rather the MRC had, consequently, if was , in the power of the MRC to jeyen abolish the code completely. At the next meeting of the MRC the results of the spoils were presented. Unfortunately, only East Halls conducted a complete poll which showed that student opinion was against the present code. With recom mendations stretching from pre vision (as in the present I pro posed bermuda shorts* rulplj to complete abolishment.. | ; After presentation of these results, a debate ensued! itha . conclusion, “We are the repre sentatives of the students. How dare anyone take polls of student opinion. We know what the students want.” Thus: fur • ther polling of student opihion was ceased; the MRC by? re fusing to recognize the f stu dents’ voices, because of’ the power-seeking and jealousy motives of some of the repre sentatives, lost a wonderful op portunity to show that student government is meaningful Is it hard to see why there is apathy at Penn State? \ ' The present situation is even mote horrendous than the one above.

In summary, Miss Messick, I do not believe a better example of the fantastically ridiculous aspects of student government and administration workings could have been presented. When is there going to be uni fication and cooperation among students and their representa tives? When will the sity’s administration stop their double talk. The answer is simple: When everyone stops arguing about apathy, and starts to take ac tion to,’ get a unified student opinion in order to show the administration that we'students mean business, that we stii dents.-are not going to be cod dled and fondled any longer, that we students are ready to take a place in American .so ciety by fighting for the ideals of a democracy which we cher ish. - —Burt Kaplan '64 WDFM Schedule SUNDAY :44 Slgn-On :80 Chapel Service :*• Chamber Music :)• Morm*n Tabernacle Chair :94 Tha Third Program*# :0I Sign-Off FEEUKEAnX I IKTfEI?6ETW I [J : ■<% AlmostN&ODV* 1
