Viet Cong Defectors Increasing
SAIGON Major engagements alone have accounted
for. 915 Communist dead since the Tet Truce ended Sunday
and Viet Cong are defecting at a rate of mere than 500 a
week, allied authorities said yesterday.
South Vietnamese armored troops shot up a column
of Communists apparently retreating from a' disastrous
battle Wednesday with Korean marines near the central
coast and said they killed 100. The Vietnamese, serving as
a blocking force for Koreans and U.S. Marines in a drive
called Operation Rio Grande, reported they suffered no
losses.
Across the country, a brigade of the U.S. 4th Infantry
Division counted 128 enemy dead from a two day battle
in the' central highlands near the Cambodia border. One
of the American companies suffered heavy casualties,
however, and another was reported hit moderately yester
day by Communist mortar.
Chinese Fighting Spreads To Tibet
TOKYO Peking wall posters said yesterday that
severe fighting broke out in Tibet, spreading from the
capital of Lhasa to near the eastern border, leaving 100 or
more persons dead.
Forces opposing Mao Tse-tung and his purge were
reported led by Gen. Chang Kuo-hua, Tibet's military
commander since the Himalayan land was seized by
Chinese Communists in 1951.
If there was any truth in the wall posters, part of their
, news was stale. They said Chang had declared martial
law in Lhasa, ousted Moaists from their strongholds and
taken over security, police and party headquarters.
A Lhasa broadcast heard in India Friday called on
the people to-rally to Mao’s support and said three army
divisions had been sent from China proper to “crush the
revisionists.” One of the divisions came from Peking,
Lhasa radio added.
Maoists asserted they seized Kansu Province in the
northwest, and are claiming victory in the Fukien Prov
ince.
Catholic Priest To Wed
LONDON A British Catholic priest said yesterday
he intends to marry and will campaign for the right of other
priests to wed.
The Rev. Arnold McMahon, 27, a Society of the Divine
Word missionary,''said he will marry an American girl he
met while studying in the United States four years ego. He
declined to disclose her name.
He said he is aware he faces excommunication and sus
pension. from the priesthood for breaking his vows. His bride
to-be will-be-excommunicated-too.he added. - ..
Two years ago, Father'McMahon told seminarians that
Roman Catholic adults should have the right to use contra
ceptives. He was called to Rome, disciplined, then sent
but to Ghana, West Africa, as a missionary.
Father McMahon says hei intends to continue his fight
within the church "I still consider myself a Roman Cath
olic,” he’s aid.

' Committee Favors Powell Censure
WASHINGTON a clear majority of the. House com
mittee investigating Adam Clayton Powell Jr. was reported
yesterday to favor seating him with a stiff censure motion,
probably including a fine or withholding some of his pay.
Although thoughts have not wholly crystallized, most mem
bers of the select committee are understood to believe that
this is the most severe action practical for the House to take.
A money penalty against Powell would cover government
funds he allegedly converted to his own use.
His explusion. they feel, would make him a martyr and
might force the House to deal with the matter again, if, as
expected, the Harlem Democrat won a special .election for
his vacated seat.
Although the committee has taken no votes and reached
no firm agreement on recommendations to be submitted to
die House next; Thursday, the general outlines of a consensus
have emerged
Romney Begins Western Tour
LANSING, Mich. —Gov. George W. Romney, one of
the most widely traveled non-candidate of the year, set
,out Friday on a seven day Western swing still insisting
‘he had not made up his mind about his political future.
Romney told a news conference the trip was a result
“of the natural invitations you get as a result of Lincoln's
Birthday.” -He decribed himself as a non-cadidiate who
had been placed in a unique position.
However, Democrats have labeled it a campaign tour
to help the 59 year old former automaker to secure the
1968 Republican presidential nomination.
Republicans have said such a trip is necessary to
give Romney opportunity to state his position on na
tional issues and to give him exposure necessary to
secure delegate support at the 1968 GOP National Con
vention.

Shapp Hits Pennsylvania Railroad
•• WILLIAMSPORT Milton Shapp charged Friday
that the Pennsylvania Railroad “has contributed heavily
to Pennsylvania’s decline” by cutting down on its pas
senger service in the state.,
Shapp, the unsuccessful Democratic candidate for
governor, made the charge while testifying at an Inter
state Commerce Commission, hearing on the railroad’s
proposal to_ eliminate two daytime passenger trains be
tween Baltimore, Md. and Buffalo, N.Y.
He.also produced figures he said showed the trains
made a net profit of $14,609 in the fiscal year that ended
June, 1966.
The railroad, in asking the ICC, for permission to
eliminate the trains, said it was operating them at' a loss.
It said the number of passengers using the trains, , had
declined 75 per cent.
State Employee Pay Delay Denied
HARRISBURG—-The budget secretary for the Republi
' can Shafer Administration said yesterday a Democrat’s
charges that some state employees would not be paid on
time were politically motivated and inaccurate.
, The secretary, Arthur F. Sampson, said checks for em
ployees of 28 state hospitals were not delayed at all, and
that the checks for the employees at the 14 state colleges
s would be sent-out only a day late.
A spokesman for the Department of Public Instruction
said, however, that the state college employees would pro
bably receive their checks on time in spite of the delay.
. The democrat, Thomas Z. Minehart, who is state treas
urer and state chairman of -his party, said Thursday ithat
a computer"that prepares the checks had broken down!,and
this would delay checks. 1 ■'

Collegian Staff Writer

term 1967. r ' '
The structure, which will house some
2,000 volumes, including reserve books,
will serve primarily the Pollock-South

According to Milton H. Crouch, Un
dergraduate Librarian, the undergraduate
library building will he "neither large
nor pretentious.” A simple plan with a
comfortable, functional, and informal
decor would provide the ideal surround

He added that the library will be
capable of seating 320 students, 75 tr
of whom would be seated at individual
study carrells and the remainder at small
study tables.
Emphasize Informality
The decor of the building will empha

cushions provided for the students. Before
lounge furniture is ordered for the library,
a study will be made tof determine what
type of chairs students prefer for study

In addition to the 2,000 books which

Greek Week To Begin Tomorrow
By CHARLES REDMOND
Collegian Staff Writer
With the dual Bill Cosby concerts in
Recreation Hall this Sunday,-the University’s
sororities and fraternities kick off this year’s
Greek Week. The theme, ‘‘That’s Greek to
me”, will carry throughout the entire week’s
activities, culminating in a combination field
event-jammy Saturday, Feb. 25, at Skimont.
The Cosby'concerts, at 3:00 p.m. and at
8:00 p.m. Sunday, will also feature, besides
the famed comedian, Jim and Jean, folk sing
ers in the style of Sonny and Cher. The con
certs, a total sellout for the Interfraternity
Council, will be seen by more than 15,000
people from the University, State College,
and the Commonwealth Campuses.
There will also be 4,700 pamphlets, dis
tributed at each of the two concerts. Accord
ing to Rick Peirson, co-editor of the publica
tion, the pamphlet will contain background
material for' Cosby, and Jim and Jean and
will' also contain a schedule of events for
Greek Week, with ah explanation of each
event.
Cultural Events
On Monday night, , the fraternities and
sororities will add a cultural basis to their
regular meetings. The IFC will feature

the agency had informed him it has "not
used or secretly subsidized Fulbright schol
ars."
One source confirmed that the Senate
group which supervises CIA activities had
known about the payments for some time.
This Senate committee reportedly has
been pressing CIA officials to transfer some
other expenditures to departments where
they would show-up in the public budget—
and avoid embarrassing disclosures such as
the CIA-NSA financial link.
Included in these are. CIA funds being
used in pacification and rehabilitation pro
grams in South Vietnam.
Nearing Showdown
The NSA’s governing board was nearing
a showdown on whether—and how—to re
main in operation.
The group is considering giving up its
overseas activitites in the belief that its rep
resentatives will be viewed henceforth as
spies.
Panhel Elects Executive Officers;

After two days of voting, sorority

which has Kathy Downey (sth-political

also be provided. Crouch said the num
ber of books and periodicals will increase
as the library develops.
However, the reserve books for the
Pollock library have not yet been
ordered, because the decision has not
been_ madg .wljether'.to provide .reserve
books for the' wfiile spectrum of'course
levels, Including the 400 level, or limit
the reserve book collection to courses
below the 100 level, Crouch explained.
Limiting the collection would be un
fortunate, Crouch said, “since students
with ,400 level courses would, still have
to walk to Pattee for their books.” He
also noted that for a period of time when
the library opens it .will be necessary to
have a closed stack reserve.
The Pollock library is just one part
of' a system of undergraduate libraries
being established at the University. This
system will be composed >of' a central
undergraduate library (Pattee) in the
Classroom area and three small branch
undergraduate collections in the major
resident hail areas; Pollock-South Halls
area, East Halls, and North Halls.
Encourage Students
According to Crouch, ‘‘The best way
to encourage students to use library re
sources is to establish a separate under
graduate library within the university
library system—a library or system of
libraries whose design, furnishing, ser
vices, and special facilities are purpose
fully devoted to the encouragement of

'Character Assassination’
One student leader accused the CIA of
using threats of “character assassination” in
an effort to keep NSA leaders f om acknowl
edging that the organization had been receiv
ing CIA funds since 1952.
Philip Werdell, editor of the student
magazine “The Moderator” who is acting as
a press liaison man for the NSA supervisory
board, told newsmen:
“The CIA has intimidated them by means
of threats ranging from character assassina
tion to putting pressure upon -‘the establish
ment’ to reject them from responsible roles
in American society.”
While Werdell was denouncing the CIA,
the House subcommittee was praising the big
reading.”
The North Halls library, located in
Leete Hall, in the site previously occupied
by the Agriculture Library, will be able
to seat only 75 students, but will have
the same collection at the Pollock Ii-
will be air .conditioned,.as will
be all the branch libraries.
East Undecided
In the East -Halls, the decision has
not been made whether to expand the
'existing library in Findlay Hall, or con
struct an entirely separate building in
the East Hall area. Plans for this branch
are still in the initial stages.
“Except for the restrictions which
must be imposed on the reserve books—
and every effort will be made to mini
mize them—the library would be de
signed for browsing and pleasure read
ing in an attractive atmosphere,” Crouch
said. “If undergraduate students are to
benefit from the introduction which their
instructors give them into the literature
of their'society, it is in these surround
ings that they will do it, not standing in
line to read pages 20-85 of a book which
they must return in two hours,” he
added.
The undergraduate branch library
system is one part of an ever increasing
library service at the University which
Crouch feels, “will never stop improving
from now on.” A student library commit
tee is in operation and he urges students
to make use of it in expressing what
they want in better library service.

MRC Announces
Partial Refunds
On Some Radios
The Mens Resident Council announced last night that
some-students who have purchased radios from the MRC
radio sale may get a portion of their money back because of
a reduction of . prices on a few of the radios.
Tom Sulivan, West Halls representative, announced
that students wishing to receive such a refund should bring
the receipt (containing numbers) which is on th§ back of
the radio box to the Hetzel Union Building where the sale
is going on. The receipt, he said, can easily be removed by
slitting the receipt from the box with a knife. He stressed,
however, that students should bring the entire box back
instead of a tom receipt.
The only refunds to be given, he said, are the receipts
containing the following numbers: 1820, 1543, 1060, and
975.
Sulivan also said that the MRC believes they will reach
their goal of selling 1500 radios during the sale. Part of
the reason for this is that “competition from the down
town merchant is giving MRC the opportunity ot get the
lowest prices possible from the General Electric Co.”, he
said.
Sulivan also reported that the MRC sold between 65
and 70 radios yesterday. The sale will continue until Feb.
24.
