G IERNATORIAL CANDIDATES William

their views on election issues yesterday to ap-
Is Penn. State THE
Dilworth, Scranton
The two gubernatorial candi
dates expressed differing views
yesterday on the question of
whether Penn State is the only
state university in the Common
wealth.
At the Pennsylvania News
_Broadcasters Conference at the
Nittany Lion Inn, Richardson Dil
worth, Democratic candidate for
governor, said . Penn State, is the
:only state university.
DLLWORTH ALP O said that
support' of Penn State as the only
state university has, been demon
strated in the past eight years by
:the allocation of almost double
the amount of money 'that was
given each year to Penn •State
prior to that period. Democratic
governors have been in office for
the past eight years.. • '
William Scranton, Republican
candidate for - governor; said that
the status of Penn State should
be clarified by "ironing out the
legal technicalities" which pre
~vent Penn State from state-wide
recognition and monetary sup
port. , •
Scranton said that if elected, h 4
would undertake. a study .of the
prOblem to clarify, Penn State's ,
legal 'status. He added that he
thought it was . "right" • for• Penn
State to'be recognized as the state
university: , • j • i
On the question of opening th
meetings of Penn State's: Boa

proximately 30 members of the Pt Sylvania
News Broadcasters Conference at the Niltany
Lion Inn.'
if The press, students and faculty
were, allowed to be present.
Open discussions among the
trustees themselvei would be
stifled "by necessity," Dilworth
added. Dilworth. is one of Penn
State's trustees.
SCRANTON ALSO expressed
opposition to opening the Board
of Trustees , meetings, but he add
ed that discussions aside from the
regular meetings could be ar
ranged to allow_ others .to express
their views to the trustees. These
open discuisions with the trus
tees could be held prior to decis
ions on major issues, Scranton
said.
When ,asked whether they felt
a majority of the trustees of •the
University should be appointed
by the governor, Dilworth said he
would not comment on the issue
at this time and Scranton said he
opposed this ,since "political con
siderations may enter into the
decisions."
At the present time 6 of the 32
trustees are appointecLby the gov
ernor.
Both candidates gave their
views at the conference on the
Keystone Shortway, a proposed
multi-million dollar state high
way which will transverse the
state from Stroudsburg to Shar
on.
Dilworth said that the Keystone
Shortway would open up the
northern part of the state for
more . rapid industrial develop
ment. But he said he- hopes . it
visors to obtain their approval of
-fall and winter term schedules.
Advisors have received lists of
changes in both fall and winter
timetables, as well as the .open
course list for the fall term.
