Borough Council votes against noise regulations By Nathan Pipenberg COLLEGIAN staff writer The State College Borough Council voted 4 .5 against a proposal that would can cel state police enforcement of noise regu lations at downtown bars and restaurants in its meeting Monday night. Currently, local police respond to noise complaints and issue citations ranging from SlOO to ShOO. State College Police Chief Tom King said. State police generally get involved after ward, and can levy another fine against the offending bar or restaurant, said Sgt. Wayne Bush. District Office Commander of the State Police Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement (PBLCE). Council member Silvi Lawrence voted against the proposal, questioning why there was a motive to take away state enforcement of noise regula tions. "It gives us one less way to control the uncontrollable in this town." she said. Council member Don Hahn asked whether police from the PBLCE would be in the borough on high-risk nights anyway, with Bush confirming they would be. He said the PBLCE would still be responsible for other citations, such as underage drink Exhibit exposes unique theme By Kathleen Loughran collegian staff writer A ceramic pile of poop sits outside of the Zoller Gallery encased in glass. The work's subject matter is not some thing typically displayed in artwork, but it is the theme of many works in the Sculpture Club's "Shit! Shit Show." Abigail Beddall. vice president of the club, w as the main organizer of the show. "The show is about shit because the sculpture club is the shit, and a lot of shit happens around the arts, so we thought it was an appropriate theme," Beddall (jun ior-sculpture) said. But the reason for having the show is not just to display excrement and works relat ed to that subject matter. "The reason for having this show was to offer an alternative place for people to show other than the juried show,” Beddall said. Nathaniel Kling is one of the artists who chose to participate in the Sculpture Club’s show. His painting called "Look what they did to my Childhood Hero" showed a super hero bending down and going to the bath room. The price of the work is "open for barter ing." "I thought it was an interesting theme and liked the idea of the free open show running against the current exhibition,” Kling (senior-new media) said.

More than 350 people treated themselves to an all-you-can eat style spaghetti dinner with meatballs, salad and garlic bread, rais ing more than $2,500 for Partners In Health and the United Nations Children's Rind (UNICEF) at 208 W Foster Ave. Stephanie Gill (freshman-kinesiology), a member of Project Haiti, said she was "shocked” at the amount of people that showed up. “We’ve had people coming in and paving and not asking for their change back and then other people just come in and donate." Gill said. “The attitude of just caring in gen eral has been great." Project Haiti member Cindy Reed (soph omore-kinesiology) said she was eager to get involved after visiting Haiti three years ago and witnessing the poverty. “Seeing the tropical and poorest part of Haiti, it was a different experience." Reed As't M ishra Coitegian ing and serving visibly intoxicated people “With the number of bars downtown, we’ll be here anyway," Bush said. Jim Rosenberger who voted in sup port of the proposal said ending state enforcement would stop bars from being fined twice and would be a "sensible sim plification of enforcement." No members of the State College Tavern Owners Association, which suggested the change, were present at the meeting. Council also discussed changes to park ing restrictions on Southgate Drive and Stratford Drive at the meeting. The request to change the restrictions stemmed from complaints from residents who were forced to move then - cars across the street at 8 p.m. Wednesdays. Robin Homan, who owns about 50 prop erties on Southgate Drive, told council the changes to parking restrictions being dis cussed would narrow the street. "My biggest concern is that there would be cars on both sides of the street for 12 hours," she said. After Homan spoke, council voted to put off a vote on the proposal and to schedule a public hearing. Samuel Berner (non-degree student) was another artist who displayed his w ork in the show. He created the pile of poop entitled “Hold Your Nose." “I thought it was a fun show to make a work of art for,” he said, "As children we make poop and we continue to until we die. so I thought it would be fun to make a ceramic piece of poo." Another displayed work included Cody Goddard’s photograph named “Poopopotamus.” “I was pretty happy with how the show' came together as a whole because it didn't have many resources and it came together quickly,” Goddard (senior-integrative arts) said. Not only were the artists pleased with the results, but some people who went to see the show were also impressed bv the exhibition. “It’s nice to have a different form outside of regular art. I think it's funny," Stephanie Harvey (graduate-printmaking) said. Joseph Herbstritt (junior-biological engi neering) also went to see the Sculpture Club’s show. “I thought it was hilarious," he said. Beddall said the exhibit will be open for viewing outside Zoller Gallery' in the Visual Arts Building until Friday. Feb. 5, for anyone who has not had the chance to see it.

While Project Haiti President /Main Bonny could be seen hustling around in the kitchen with several other volunteers, he described Hie ev cut as an "awesome prob lem."
