' • Seniors To Choose Class G ift Four possible uses for the money in the Class of '63- Gift Fund were proposed by the Senior Class ' Adv . isory Board Sunday afternoon. Up for the consideration of the senior class are a, loan fund, a paVilion for Stone:Valley, an art work for the proposed outdoor reading addition to Pattee Library and a bronze University seal to be sunk in front of Old Main. ' The class has about $B,OOO in its gift fund, Randy Carter, presi dent, said. The seal will be. placed on the ballot as .a yes or no choice since it will only cost about $l,OOO, Carter explained. If the majority PATRICIA HOWARD LINDA PAVIAN „.„; - MARGARET ANN THOMPSON of students favor a -seal the re maining money will be devoted to the other suggestion receiving the largest number of votes. If the seal is defeated all the money will go to another suggestion, he explained. •- The purpose of the seal would be to create a tradition that - no one walks on it, Carter said. The -loan fund would be set up to aid needy students in 'com pleting either a bachelor or as sociate degree program., Those nearest graduation would be giv en preference, Carter said; A minimum of 2.00 • All-University average would be required, he added. 011 r VOL. 63, No. 76 UNIVERSITY PARK.

The Administrative Committee on Student Affairs which has the final authority in this matter met in closed session yesterday to con sider reinstating a campus humor magazine. Last Wednesday, the Committee on Student Organiza tions had recommended the mag azine be chartered. R 0 B BR T G.

Euwema said the Universities of Strasbourg, France and Cologne, .Germany, educational centers for University study abroad partici pants each spring, are working toward plans to send some of their 'Students here for a period of study. OFFICIALS of the universities are considering sending students to Penn State because participants in the study abroad program last spring were such "wonderful am bassadors," he said:" Officials at the Universities of Strasbourg and Cologne enthusi astically received last year's kick off program and "were anxious to have more University students," Euwema said. _ "These faculty members were particularly impressed by the stu dents' willingness to work and their grasp of ideas and concepts," he added. The study abroad program, in itiated at•the Uthversity last year, will send 116 students to the Uni versity of Cologne, Strasbourg and Salamanca, Spain, during the spring term. This group will leaVe the United States on March 25. Dagobert De=Levie, director of the program, said the University's academic program was also favor ably received in Europe last year, although it required special atten tion from the foreign universities. SUCH CARE .was required, De Levie explained, because most The pavilion for Stone Valley would be used for picnics and other recreational activities. The proposed structure would consist of a concrete floor and a roof. This would be the first such building at the area. The sculpture or art object was suggested by Ralph C. McComb, University Librarian. He said that the outdoor library addition is in the plannirig stages and that such an object could be part of the de sign. Seniors will vote on these pro posals at March graduation and at Spring registration, Carter said. 1 Li • MI . 1 i t 4."1:X: ' ::.} . ~• . _ ., / . -....

Such a con stitution should provide the Board of Directors with authority to select the editor' and business manager, to formulate the gen eral policies and procedures under which the magazine operates, and to exercise control of its fiscal operations." Bernreuter commented that al though these provisions are in cluded in the constitution which his- committee considered this morning, the Board of Directors had "too many restrictions on its authority, making it a group of mere figureheads." As the constitution is now written, the senior board of Froth selects the editor and business manager, formulates policy and checks fiscal operations with the final approval of their actions coming from the Directors. ADVISERS ARE the first per sons to check the senior board ac American universities with study abroad programs emphasize lan guage proficiency in their foreign studies. The University program, how ever, stresses advanced studies in social, political, and economic fields, he, said. Under the University system, instruction (except for a speci fied language course) is given in English so that the student can devote his attention to course ma terial without .being hindered by language handicaps, De Levie said. Aside from topnotch formal classroom instruction, the pro gram gives participants oppor tunities for close, personal obser vation of the tremendbus changes occurring in Europe at the present time, De Levie said.

Alpha Xi Delta, Delta Delta Delta and Delta Sigma Theta took the fionors.in sorority competition for' quartets while Tau Kappa Epsilon, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Delta Chi won in the fraternity division in the same category, Nancy Quigley, sing co-chairman, said. Kappa Alpha,Theta, Kappa Del ta and Kappa Kappa Gamma sororities and Acacia, Alpha Gam ma Rho and Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternities won the three top honors in the preliminary group choral singing event, Miss Quig ley said. All 12 finalists will compete in the sing finals Friday evening. Miss Quigley said approximate ly 20 Greek organizations, both sorority and fraternity, entered the prelimirvvries. TIM Meeting tivities. Any action which is not approved by the advisers can be appealed, to the Director. Bernreuter said he wanted to see the initial power for running the magazine vested in the. Board of Directors because it acts as publisher of the magazine and is responsible for everything that is printed as well as financial obliga tions. The limited power of ap proval is not enough for a group with that much responsibility, he explained. Bernreuter said that his com mittee's recommendations would be sent to Dean Wharton, chair man of the Undergraduate Stu dent Government committee which wrote the new Froth con stitution. Last night Wharton said he would call a meeting of his com mittee Wednesday afternoon to consider Bernreuter's proposals, "From my understanding of the recommendations, I think I am in full agreement with the Admin istrative committee," Wharton said. "I •think all three of those rec ommendations are pretty good," he continued, "and will provide fOr a better constitution." WHEN WHARTON'S group re writes the constitution, if it de cides to do so, they must then submit the new document through the same process that this one has been through. First it goes to George L. Donovan, chairman of the Committee on Student Or ganizations, for investigation. Donovan's committee may rec ommend chartering of Froth to Bernreuter's committee or decide that the charter application be re jected. The Administrative com mittee 'has final say on any rec ommendation Donovan's group may make.

Edelson's parents, who had been with him in Danville, have re turned to their home in New York. The preliminary competitions began Sunday night in Sparks and Bourke, where they con tinued last night.
