EFC Executive Cancels
Plans for Kingston
Hue to Fitzgerald Concert
The. Kingston Trio will not be asked to perform in Rec
reation Building on Saturday of Greek Week because of a
possible infringement on the Ella .Fitzgerald concert, sched
uled by the Jazz Club for the following evening, Emil Sos,
Interfraternity Council president, said yesterday.
Sos said he met with members of the IFC executive boat’d
who were available late Wednesday evening to consider the
proposal, which was tentatively approved by the Greek Week
Committee earlier that evening.
When he couldn’t contact Jeff
Rosenblum, Jazz Club president,
for his views, on the Fitzgerald-
Kingston Trio situation, Sos called
Sandra Katinsky, Jazz Club vice
president.
Miss Katinsky seemed optimis
tic, Sos said, and said there was
a possibility that the two events
wouldn’t financially infringe up
on .either group.’
Sos said he decided against
inviting the trio, however, be
cause he thought “it -wouldn’t be
fair” to the Jazz Club, which had
already made all- the arrange
ments for Miss Fitzgerald’s con
cert, nor to IFC and the Panhel
lenic Council. The. two Greek
councils would have paid the trio
approximately $5,000 ' for the
night, he said.
SOS SAID he took the respon
sibility for making the decision
because the issue had to be set
tled immediately, even though
the entire executive board wasn’t
present.
Rosenblum said yesterday that
he "definitely thought both con
certs would have suffered finan
cially” if they had been scheduled
on succeeding nights because

FOR A BETTER PENN STATS
UNIVERSITY PARK, PA.. FRIDAY MORNING. JANUARY 18. 1963
Kennedy Budget
Hits Record High
Trio
WASHINGTON (/PH-President
Kennedy submitted to a grum
bling Congress yesterday a na
tional budget that would rocket
spending to a record peak ap
proaching $lOO billion.
The President wrapped togeth
er into, a single package a vast
$98.8 billion spending program
and another request for big-scalc
tax revisions and reductions. He
said this financial plan would per
mit "the efficient and frugal con
duct of the public business,” boost
the economy, and lead in time to
balanced budgets.
VARIOUS MEMBERS of Con
gress, some of . them with key
roles in federal financial affairs,
came out with expressions of
alarm and dissent. These were
tempered only to a degree since
it is certain that Kennedy’s budget
is slated for a,ru g g e d route
through Congress.
new budget is for the 1964
fiscal year starting next July 1.
It holds the line on spending for
domestic affairs. But it bulges
with record outlays of cash for
defense, and a space program
aimed at the moon and some
planets. - ’ ■
Kennedy cautioned against
false economy in these realms and
said there is no way to buy securi
ty at cut rates.
THE BUDGET counts on rev
enues of only $86.9 billion. This
is $11,902,000,000 short of what it
would take to keep government
ledgers out of the red.
Kennedy insisted, though, that
this huge deficit and others to
come would be only temporary
—that red ink would turn to black
once his program of $13.5 billion
in tax cuts, offset by $3.5 billion
in tax changes, began to take hold
and “release the brake on the
er place so it can assume its
proper role.”
Paine: “The, main reason that
I am running is that I want to
be a member of Congress when
the results of the investigation
of the Senate Rules and Regula
tions are brought to the floor.”
Smichnick: “The majority of
,the people in student. govern
ment are not concerned with the
problem's of the student because
of a lack of interest shown by
students.”

Secretary of the Treasury Doug
las Dillon told newsmen it is un
reasonable to expect Congress to
enact a tax law before next July
1. Thus the first tax relief, a drop
in personal income tax rates,
would come sometime this sum

The budget would soar to all
sorts of records or near records.

New Constityf ion
Changed Little
By ROCHELLE MICHAELS
No-major changes were made
in the proposed constitution for a
new campus humor magazine at
the meeting of the Committee on
Student Organizations yesterday.
However, no decision will be made
at least until next Tuesday when
the group discusses whether to
recommend chartering the publi
cation.
The Committee on Student Or
ganizations, chaired by George L.
Donovan, met with Andrea
Buscanics, co-editor of the former
Penn State Froth, and Undergrad
uate Student Government-Presi
dent Dean Wharton to clarify cer
tain phases in the document.
MISS BUSCANICS submitted
the constitution to the committee
last term after the original humor
magazine lost its charter on Oct.
23 for failing to live up to several
provisions of the
Miss Buscanics said that a ma-

Young.
Anzalone: "The primary goal
should be getting‘student inter
est. Secondly, USG should not
shoot for something that is out
of their reach.”
Ence: “The main crisis facing
USG now is lack of.interest. If
USG could sponsor a project or a
special day, it may stimulate more
interest.”
Kakareka: "The major goals
should be to give students a more
pronounced definition of USG
and to prove to students that its
functions are important.”
Kopp: “I would like to see the
Transportation Committee reacti
vated and to have more publicity
on the actions of USG.”
Young:' “USG should make
recommendations to the adminis
tration on things that have a
good chance of being approved
by them and that are reasonable.
I would also like to see USG look
into the possibility of running a
jitney bus service to the east end
of campus for the time when more
residence halls will be built
there.”
BQCME Sponsors
To Find Most Love
The Board of Collegian Male
Editors (BOCME) has opened its
annual contest to find the most
attractive coed on campus.
The winner of the annual con
test is automatically entered in
the Campus Cover Girl Contest
sponsored by the ROTO Maga
zine of The Pittsburgh Press.
All coeds are invited to enter
the contest. Men on campus are
also invited to enter -the coed
they believe best qualified for
the ‘ \
government is spending in this
fiscal year, and it tops by almost
$5OO million the previous high of
$98.3 billion in tne war year of
1945.
The $55.4 for defense, up $2.7
billion from this year, is a record
for peacetime. The $4.2 billion for
space projects is a record nearly
twice as big as last year’s figure.
And the tax cuts, should they
ever come through, would be the
biggest in all history.
jorily of the clarifications Dono
van’s committee asked for at the
meeting concerned sentence struc
ture and grammar.
She explained that the provision
that the magazine be "issued eight
times during the academic year”
be changed to "a minimum of six
times” so that the actual number
of issues could be more flexible.
In the event that co-editors, and
not one editor, are chosen for
the publication, the committee
recommended that the magazine’s
senior board choose which editor
should represent the staff on the
Board of Directors. The original
proposal stated that both would
sit on the Board, she said.
Both of these changes and all
clarifications of sentence structure
and grammar were accepted by
Miss Buscanics and Wharton. Miss
Buscanics said she has given the
corrected constitution to Donovan
for consideration at Tuesday’s
meeting.
COMMENTING on the commit
tee’s request for changes, Miss
Buseanics said: "They helped us
strengthen what I wanted to be
a strong constitution. But through
out, they have stressed that the
sincerity of those supporting Froth
will be of primary importance in
reaching a decision, so I don’t
know what the decision will be.”
Donovan said he "hoped” his
committee would be able to reach
a decision at its Tuesday morn
ing meeting on whether or not to
recommend chartering the new
Froth. He explained that whatever
they recommend, it would be ac
companied with a statement of
the reasoning behind the decision,
and preparation of the statement
might take extra time.
DONOVAN stressed that the
committee was seriously consider
ing the intent of the students in
volved. Letters of intentions writ
ten to his committee by Miss
Buseanics ■ and Wharton on Nov.
20 and 21 respectively will be
considered in the decision, Dono
van said.
If Donovan’s committee ap
proves the constitution, it will go
to the Administrative Committee
on Student'Affairs, chaired by Rob
ert G. Bernreuter, for final action.
Bernrcuter has declined to indi
cate if and when his committee
would consider the constitution
when it comes before them.
