To Sing
Saturday
The combined Pennsylvania
State University, Chapel and

20th annual spring concert at
8 p.m. Saturday, in Schwab.
The work to be performed is
"Israel in Egypt" by George
Frideric H an d el. Raymond
Brown, director of Choral
Music, will conduct the choirs
which will be joined by the Uni
versity Symphony Orchestra.
Over 150 singers, divided into
a double chorus, will be used
for 'the Handel concert.
The oratorio, "Israel in
Egypt," is a tour-de-force of
choral writing, says Brown, as
sociate professor of . music.
Many of the double choruses
show an Italian influence of
antiphonal effects, echos and
highly ornamented cadences.
There are also several huge
numbers with trumpets and
timpani which reflect the Eng
lish love of royal pomp and
pageantry.
Soprano, Lorraine Gorrel, in
structor in music, will sing the
part of "Miriam the Proph
etess" and the soprano arias.
Rilla Row Mervine will sing
the alto arias and the duets
with William Lewis, tenor.
Admission will be by com
plimentary ticket only. Tickets
are available at 212 Eisenhower
Chapel.
Mowry Elected
ICCB President
Richard Mowry, president of the College of the Liberal
Arts Student Council, was elected president of the Inter-
College Council Board last night. He defeated the acting
ICCB representative to the Undergraduate Student Gov
ernment, Don Shall.
William Watson, president of the College of Human
Development Student Council, was elected vice president,
topping Tom Worgul of the College of Science Student
Council.
In other business, the ICCB unanimously approved a
motion by Shall which read, "The Inter-College Council
Board recommends to all faculty members that all absences
from fourth period Wednesday, May 15 be excused. Fur
thermore, if any other candidate for the Presidency of the
United States should appear on campus, similar action
should be taken."
In response to the Business Council's question con
cerning the status of Sue Terner of the College of Engineer
ing 'Student Council, who walked out of a previous ICCB
meeting, Thomas Kidd, adviser to the ICCB and' field sec
retary to the Alumni Association said, "It is the responsi
bility of Miss Terner to represent her student council, if
that is what her council's constitution requires her to do, or
take the necessary steps to resign that post." Shall, who
had reportedly talked to Miss Terner, maintained that she
had no intention of pulling the Engineering council out of
ICCB. Miss Tenter and her vice president were not at the
meeting.
, President-elect Mowry urged all councils to prepare a
cciirse-evaluation guide, similar to that prepared by his
council and the Business Council, to be published under
ICCB auspices.

The Day's Catch
"In initiating "The Shelter" we propose that some
forty students from various backgrounds be
brought together for an experiment in community
living. These students would be responsible for the
maintenance and social-educational programming
of the house. A room with bath on the main floor
of the house will be reserved as a guest room for
visitors who will contribute, from their current
thought or action, to the intellectual life and social
leadership of the house. The theme of our inquiry
will be "the crisis of social and political revolu
tion." All available resources of society concerned
for human issues will be integrated into the explor
ation of our current crisis. The house will explore
what the common life and thought together can
offer in attempting to provide intimations of new
directions toward social change as well
,as how the
members themselves can personally participate in
the process. By joining "The Shelter" one commits
himself .to an identity. He commits himself to a
positive stance in' the midst of the maelstrom. He
becomes a member of a community of peers dedi
cated, to the intellectual analysis of the current,
hang-ups and,to service on task forces that
, might
be formed to fulfill the, needs and aims of the,
house. He will. learn to respect himself and others
for their_ basic humanity. Although our task is
great, the opportunities for service and personal''
growth are boundless. 'Where there is no vision
the peciple perish'."

The hint of a possible tuition in
crease at the 'University this• summer
was raised again last night by James
VsTomer, president of the Undergrad
uate Student Government.
In his first WDFM press confer
ence Womer said, "It is my own opin
ion that our tuition will be raised be
tween $5O and $lOO this summer."
Womer said ,that the state legisla
tors in Harrisburg are "all playing a
big game" with the prospect of a tui
tion increase. ''The legislators are in
sisting that they will not raise our
tuition, but Gov. Shafer is forcing
them to, while the governor is saying
that the legislature must balance the
budget." Womer said. He . summed up
the situation - saying, "Everyone in
Harrisburg is just passing the buck."
In order to fight against the pos
sible tuition hike, Womer said that
USG will attempt to motivate students
in a new protest program. This would
include a series of letters to the legis
lators.
Womer also spoke on student dem
onstrations and the possibility of "hav
ing a Columbia here." He said, "If 100
people are determined to hold a Colum
bia here, I would rate their chances as
fairly good. They could seize and hold
a classroom building for a few hours
or possibly a day." Womer said Boucke,
Sackett and Hammond Buildings are
possible cites for such a demonstration.
At last week's meeting, the 'USG
Congress established a committee to
investigate the connection of the Uni
versity with the Institute for Defense
Analyses. which participates•in weap
ons research for the Department of De
fense.
Last night Womer said that the
committee, under the leadership' of
USG Vice President Ted Thompson, is.
trying to determine how much infor
mation is available on IDA, and is
studying all such data.
The committee will present its
findings and possibly present a resolu
tion to USG at tomorrow's meeting.
"Our major quest is to examine the
role of the University community in
connection with organized military re
search." Womer said.
"We can not ignore the moral view
point of IDA," Womer said, "but our
major concern is an evaluation of
values in a University setting."
Attempt to Establish Forum
Worner said that USG will attempt
to establish a University forum on the
IDA issue. "We will have to research
the IDA issue more thoroughly," he
said.
"It is my own opinion that the
University Administration knows ex
actly what it will do in the case of a
disruptive demonstration," Womer said.

"They have a Plan :which they feel
would be effective." He said that such
a plan would probably include calling
local s and state police to the scene with
in a very short time.
Womer expressed surprise that the
topic of the University's Ordnance Re
search Laboratory was not brought up
for protest with or instead of IDA. He
said, "With the classified and sophisti
cated electronics work done there, it
is a more obvious example of military
work done right on the campus."
On USG business, Womer said that
the student government will investi
gate the possibility of forming a 'type
of Civil Rights Commission at the Uni
versity. Its purpose would be "to in
vestigate any civil rights complaints
within the area of State College."
Against Speaker's Bureau
Womer dismissed the idea of es
tablishing a USG speaker's bureau to
travel to high schools to acquaint black
students with the University situation.
Womer said, "We do not have the
necessary manpower for such a pro-'
gram."
Womer talked about the changes

On IDA Activities
By DAVID NESTOR
Collegian USG Reporter
The Undergraduate Student Govern
ment committee investigating the Insti
tute for Defense Analyses heard presen
tations from the two sides last night.
James Creegan, representing the
Coalition against IDA, said that his or
ganization wants USG to join with them.
"We are asking your support. We think
the USG can add weight to the move
ment." The plans of the Coalition in
clude a rally on Old Main lawn Thurs
da.), with speakers from Columbia Uni
versity and a mass petition Friday to
President Eric Walker, "If he won't come
ouf, we will go in," Creegan said.
The committee, headed by USG Vice
President Ted Thompson, attempted to
formulate a set of questions to present
to President Walker Friday in the event
that USG passes a proposal.
List of Questions
A list of proposed questions was pre
sented to the committee dealing with
such things as the benefit the University
receives from its affiliation ith IDA,
whether either the University or the
work of IDA would be hurt by severing
relations and who the faculty is working

ment during the next year. He said,
"Our major problem will be with the
Administration, not with the student
body." He expressed the opinion that
University students are not apathetic.
"Apathy is a misused word often
employed by pseudo student leaders as
a rationalization for their own failure
to motivate students." He said, "Many
students are not apathetic; they just
feel student government is irrek •ant
to their personal lives." Werner said
that USG will be investigating ways to
motivate student interest and support
in the corning year.
Discipline System
Womer also discussed the topic of
academic freedom at the UniVerSity.
He said one of the "major subjects of
academic freedom deals with the Uni
versity's discipline system which treats
students as if they were children rath
er than adults."
Womer disagreed with the major
role the Administration plays in mak
ing decisions for the University and the
student body. He said, "The. Adminis
trators should all be janitors and the
faculty and students should make
policy decisions."
an Speaks for SDS
Cree
for. and what they arc doing.
Creegan presented documented proof
of the actions of IDA. The purpose. of
IDA is to provide support for other de
fense agencies according to Creegan.
Creegan expounded on some of these. The
first of these is Project Agile, "the real
think factory of counterinsurgency." The•
purpose of this project is the defense of
Vietnam by determining the nature of
problems, finding solutions and turning
these solutions over to the proper chan
nels.
Creagan stated that IDA is also in
volved in the suppression of rebellions in
the ghettos of the U.S. This is allegedly
accomplished through the militarizing of
the police forces. "The ghetto rebellions
are Justifiable rebellions," Creegan said.
The committee will report to USG at
their regular meeting Thursday night.
Thursday afternoon the committee will
meet with E. F. Osborn, vice president
for research.
The 'representatives of the Coalition
against IDA said that they are ready- to
pursue independent action if USG does
not pass the desired proposal. Creegan
said that their plans were set and that
they were going throngh with them.
