Snack bar may replace store
By WILLIAM BURCHILL
A student-faculty committee will shortly recommend construction
of
a
snack bar in the basement of Houston Hall, in space now occupied
by the H.H. Store, C.W. Dean R. Jean Brownlee disclosed yesterday.
The Houston Hall Building Committee, chaired by Dr. Brownlee,
has mapped a plan to close off the present store area from tne rest
of the building, permitting access only through the basement door on
Spruce St.
The separate entrance would allow flexibility in operating hours
for the snack bar during times when the rest of the building is closed,
Dean Brownlee said.
The H.H. Store is scheduled
to move next August to temporary
commercial facilities at 38th and
Walnut sts., where demolition
work is almost complete.
The snack bar decision was
reached after the committee had
determined that the Houston Hall
building should be retained as a

Assistant Dean of WomenMary Bardone will resign her post in
the dean's office at the end of
February to devote more time to
her job as co-ordinator of the
University's Morgan State Project, it was learned yesterday.
Miss Bardone, who replaced
Miss Janet Fry in the dean's office in December of 1966, will be
working as project co-ordinator
under the office of Vice-Provost
for Student Affairs A. Leo Levin.
Miss Bardone said she had
been dividing her time and energy
between the two positions and had
not been able to devote as much
time to the Morgan State Project
as she had wanted. She said that
she would continue to conduct
Peace Corps interviews for the
Dean of Women's office.
Miss Bardone has been working as the coordinator of the
Morgan State Project since last
September. In this project the
University provides facilities and
teachers for the mostly Negro
Commonwealth institution.
(Continued on page 5)
Community Involvement
Council (CIC) officials took
advantage of a check presentation ceremony with President
Harnwell yesterday to criticize
the University for its alleged
lack of concern with community
problems.
The occasion was the handing
over to CIC of $450, money raised by The Daily Pennsylvanian
by auctioning off the wall around
the new Fine Arts Building last
week.
At an otherwise light affair
on the Fine Arts Building plaza,
CIC co-chairman JohnSeley told
the president and a large gathering of newsmen that the University has fallen down in its obligation to the black ghettoes that
surround the campus.
"It's all well and good,"
Seley declared, "that the University's behind us monetarily.
"But we've found from working in the community that the
community is pretty much against
the University. The University
has a long road to go in community relations."
The statement was planned
for the occasion, Seley said ear-
lier, by him and his co-chairman.
College junior Larry Simon.
Harnwell had no discernable
reaction to the statement, as he
exhibited a grin throughout the
proceedings.
Seley, also College '69, expressed appreciation for the
$2,400 the University allotted
CIC this year, but added:
"It's got to the point where
criticism of the University shouW
not be internal. They are criticized internally, but it doesn't
affect them at all. They don't
have an organ of constant touch
with the community. In Area 3,
for example, a population of 7,000
has dwindled to 46."
Seley added that he does not
think his criticism in front of
Harnwell was rude.
"It's no more rude," he remarked, "than what they did to
us. It's not a question anymore
of stepping on a few people's
toes."
The check that Seley and Simon received was made out on a
four by eight foot piece of plywood, and it was signed by Daily
Pennsylvanian reporter-auction(Continued on page 5)
Authority spokeman
denies plan rejection
A spokesman for the Redevelopment Authority yesterday
denied published reports that the
Authority had rejected the University's plans for the superblock.
Saul Schraga, public information officer for the Authority,
termed
the
reports which
appeared Sunday "inaccurate".
He said the Authority "rejected
nothing and approved nothing."
The controversy developed
when architectural consultants
for the project, G. Holmes Perkins and Mario Romanach, submitted plans which deviated from
those originally proposed. The
new plans called for coverage of
approximately 30 per cent of the
17 acres in the area. The earlier
proposals provided for land coverage of about 60 per cent.
According to Schraga, a staff
member of the Authority (Clar-
ence G. Alhart,) wrote a letter
to the City PlaimingCommission,
which Perkins heads, asking the
commission to postpone action on
approval of the superblock plan.
Francis J. Lammer, executive director of the Authority,
explained
the staff members
were stymied when they noticed
the departure from the original
plan.
"It seemed to have a lot of
open space and the land wasn't
used as densely as it had been
before," Lammer said.
When Perkins learned of the
request of the Redevelopment
Authority he telephoned Gustave
G. Amsterdam, the Authority's
chairman, to determine the cause
of the request. Perkins explained
that the buildings were to be
higher than originally planned
thus providing more accomoda(Continued on page 7)

graduate and now a senior editor
of Philadelphia Magazine, represented the University behind
locked doors.
Schwarcz, captain of the University team and president of the
Intercollegiate Chess Association, played "first-board" in the
contest.
Schwarcz's opponent,
inmate
Martin Pearson, is serving a
sentence for manslaughter according to Schwarcz.
"He's a real nice guy",
the
University club president commented.
The two played for three hours
and 40 minutes, according to a
prison spokesman.
"I met this man playing chess
at the prison three years ago,"
Schwarcz said. I told him I'd
play him 'first board* someday
if he was still here."
According to Schwarz, the
prisoner was imprisoned about
eight years ago and will be paroled in the spring.
Schwarcz said he did not feel
any unusual pressure in playing
at a prison. He did record a
pulse of "132 per minute during
the match," however.
Schwarcz said he often takes
his pulse rate while playing
chess.
"The prisoners are very polite and do not blow smoke in
your face like some of the collegiate opponents do,"
the
chessman commented.
"They are more intelligent
than the guards. They read a lot
and go to classes. The guards
just sit and get fat, but the prisoners are in fine shape,"
Schwarz added.
Schwarz, commenting on the
condition of prison life noted that
"the toilet paper is better than
in the men's dorms".
After playing the match, the
school books of the University
students were inspected.
"They wanted to see if we
were sneaking out letters," said
Schwarcz. "They kind of felt
us up on the way in".
A guard with a gun watched
the chessmen exit and enter, he
said. The losing chessmen were
not allowed to leave.
130 students to join in
experimental seminars
"Over 130 students have been
accepted to participate in the
third
series of Experimental
Seminars," A.Steven Perelman,
student coordinator, announced
yesterday.
"We are especially pleased
with this semester's program because more students than ever
before will have the opportunity
to take a seminar," he added.
In the two previous sets of seminars, approximately 100 students
were accepted into the program
each semester.
"Acceptance for the seminars was based on background or
interest in the topic," Perelman
commented. "In a case where two
students were of equal background, and one had taken a
seminar before, preference was
given to the other student," he
said.
"This will be a continuing
policy, because a fundamental
goal of the Experimental Seminars is to give as many undergraduates as possible the chance
to meet with a teacher in a small,
informal group," Perelman added.
A list of the seminars, with
time and place of meeting, and
those students accepted for each
one, follows. All seminars begin
meeting this week, except where
specified.

Today, the men of the senior
class vote to elect alumni class
officers, men who will represent
the Class of 1968 at all affairs
in the future.
Alexius Conroy, President of
UPSG, and Douglas Cox, President of the Intra- Fraternity
Council, are running for President of the class on the official
ballot.
Conroy and Cox are organization men. In their four years at
Pennsylvania, they have risen
in organizations known as arenas
of tough competition. When
necessary, these men have bowed
and bent to the dictates of their
superiors within their organizations, to Administration, and to
faculty.
James Dubin is not on the official ballot. Dubin, Editor-inChief of PunchBowl magazine,
is not an organization man. Dubin revived a campus publica-

tion dead for twenty-five years;
he worked outside an organization, with only his ideas and
ideals to guide him.
The duties of the permanent
president include fund-raising,
maintaining beneficial alumni
relations, and representing the
class at ceremonies.
If recently graduated alumni
become disenchanted with the
University, it is evident that their
interest in helping the University
in the future will be curtailed.
The Class of 1968, then, has
a responsibility to itself, to the
University, and to the preceding
and succeeding classes to elect
as president a man with fresh
ideas, but with proven vision.
Such a man is James Dubin.
We strongly urge senior men
to write James Dubin's name
on the ballot today for president
of the senior class.

QUESTION: I paid for the Collegiate Guide and never got it. Now
they' re making me walk down to Hamilton Walk for a refund. Last
year they sent me a refund check because they took too long for the
"Saturday Review." Why do I have to walk down there to get my
money? Can't they send me a check? — Deborah Kravetz
ACTION: Action Line called Phillip Moore, auditor of the student
agencies. He said that he sent notices to everyone stating that there
was only a slight possibility of the Collegiate Guide coming in and
anyone who wanted a refund could stop by the office on Hamilton
Walk. If the Guide doesn't come in by the end of the year, he will
send refund checks to everyone who didn't come in earlier. Why
would you want the Collegiate Guide anyway? It merely confirms
what many have suspected: There's nothing to do in Philadelphia.
QUESTION: We are four students in one room in the dorms. In
October we requested bunk beds for our room; however, despite
frequent inquiries, we have been unable to get anything done. Could
you help us? — Michael Jomel
ACTION: Action Line called Russell Fulton, assistant to Ambrose
Davis. He promised to have something done as soon as possible.

The other side escalates
The Administration's Vietnam policy
has been based on the assumption that
the enemy would not escalate the war,
even if itspolitico-military position were
deteriorating, it was assumed that Hanoi
and her supporters would rather give up
than step on the escalator against the
determined might of the U*5. military
machine in Asia.
Supposedly, it was only the hope that
American public opinion would repudiate
the war in November 1968, which kept
Hanoi going.
It is probably quite true that Hanoi
was hoping for American public opinion
to defeat our Administration's war policy.
Undoubtedly, the remarkable rise in President Johnson's popularity in recent
weeks has caused great disappointment
in Hanoi. Pollster Louis Harris reported
that Vietnam would be LBJ*s strongest
issue in the upcoming election campaign.
This news must surely have dashed Hanoi's hope for a political victory in
November.
In light of these diminished prospects,
Hanoi escalated its peace offensive. It
virtually promised to negotiate if the
bombing of North Vietnam were stopped.
Dean Rusk pooh-poohed the offer--it was
not enough. (It seems as if only an abject surrender of all her previous bargaining positions would convince Rush of
Hanoi's sincere desire for peace.)
serious. China might well have come to
the conclusion that Hanoi's spirit was
flagging.
Could Peking not have decided that it
was high time to relieve some of the
pressure on Hanoi? Could she not have
instigated North Korea to provoke war
with the UJS. with the promise that Chinese troops would help that North Koreans
to conquer Seoul?
The radical militarists who recently
consolidated their power in Pyongyang
are just the type to be susceptible to
such blandishments.
Peking has been offering to send "volunteers" into North Vietnam for a long
time. But Hanoi, being secretly mistrustful of the Chinese, has consistently turned
this offer down. Besides that, it would be
very difficult for the Chinese to sustain
a large war in Indochina, since it is so
far away from the Chinese industrial and
military heartland in Manchuria.
Korea, on the other hand, is the perfect place to lay down the gauntlet to
United States "imperialism". If Peking
has decided that she must step in to
defeat the U.S. policy in Vietnam, then
this intervention will come logically in
Korea, not in Vietnam itself. A new Korean war has the added advantage of drawing the Soviet Union into the fray in some
way, since it is treaty-bound to defend
Pyongyang.
THE VIEW FROM PEKING
ANOTHER KOREAN CONFLICT?
Although our government disregarded
the peace offerings of North Vietnamese
Foreign Minister Trinh, it's very possible
that Peking considered them utterly
From all of her acts and pronouncements in this crisis, it seems evident
that North Korea actually wants to provoke
an American declaration of war. Official

THE DAILY PENNSYLVANIAN
TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1968
Washington is trying to proceed very
calmly, to hope that the seizure of the
Pueblo is all a bad dream, to hope that
it's a mere act to demonstrate solidarity
with Hanoi, to wave an angry fist in
Uncle Sam's face, to merely humiliate
the US. before the world. (This it has
already accomplished.)
Let us hope that this optimism is
born out. But what if North Korea is
really trying to start a war? Should we,
after having exhausted all diplomatic options, oblige Peking by attacking North
Korea? certainly not. In the first place,
it would hardly help our 83 sailors; it
might even result in their death.
At all costs to our exaggerated notions of pride and honor, we must avoid
opening a second theatre of war in Asia.
And if the Communists force our hand
(by invading across the 38th parallel,
for instance) the world will at least see
that it is they who are guilty this time
of expanding the war.
The horrible consequences of a war
in Korea are obvious. It's too bad that
Johnson, Rostow, Rusk & Company didn't
see Korea as one of the horrible consequences of an expanded war in Vietnam

DAVID SMITH
assume that we could get away with an
enormous escalation on our side, without
the otherside escalating in turn? The
only reason that the Communist escalation did not come sooner, is that until
now they thought victory could be theirs
without it.
MORE ESCALATION IN SIGHT
Besides the Damocles sword of Korea,
there are other, definite signs of escalation from the other side. The Pathet
Lao, aided by North Vietnamese troops,
have launched a very serious offensive
against the neutralist-royalist forces in
Laos.
In good old South Vietnam itself, the
North Vietnamese have massed 35,000
heavily armed troops at Khesanh, for
what looks like the biggest, bloodiest,
battle of the war. Finally, let us not
forget the existence of the 300,000 troops,
the great bulk of the North Vietnamese
Army, which have still not crossed the
17th parallel.
Yes sir, our boys have some glorious
battles to fight before Asia is made safe
for American style democracy.

Edwin Hemphill Place III is
the new Olde Tobacconist.
Place, an ex Penn student is
a young, conservative, intellectual, almost-eccentric whom his
landlady Mrs. Schwartz describes as "just a nice, quiet
boy." He is the new manager of
the Ye Olde Tobacconist shop
on Walnut Street, owned in part
by accused murderer Steven
Weinstein.
He left a comfortable Albany,
New York home in 1962 for a Penn
career which lasted till the
middle of his sophomore year.
Friends describe him as "a remarkably talented writer," and a
"brilliant character analyst."
His patron-saint, according to a

his ambition is to write the definitive American novel for young

Miss Bardone cited several
areas in which she thought the
University had moved ahead in the
past year. "I think we have made
good steps towards improving the
New Student Week program,*' she
said. "This office has now moved
to a point where we consider problems and don't ignore them."
"The sororities need someone to devote fulltime to this office. They need such help to
continue developing the social
and educational programs that
they have started.
"Seeing the sororities getting
involved in the community and
working with the Community Involvement Council have both been

sale for $500.

Weinstein won't negotiate. "I'm
running it temporarily for Mr.
Cohen ... I hope to buy it, but
Mr. Weinstein doesn't want to
sell his share," he explained in
an interview.
The store had been losing
money under Weinstein's proprietorship. Place claims that his
operation will be more businesslike.
"Mr. Weinstein always
made a point of saying he had
made a hobby into a business.
It remained that way. I'd like
to at least keep regular hours."
Place was till recently a managerial employee of the Apparatus Shop at 17th & Chestnut
Streets which peddles posters and
"psychedelic" paraphernalia
mainly to students. He wants the
tobacco shop to tend more toward
student needs and tastes influ-
enced in part by his experiences
at Apparatus. "What Mr. Weinstein had done was to buy some
very expensive pipes and other
things that weren't going to sell

displaying depleted supplies of
various tobaccos, and in front of
a dusty plaque on the second shelf
recognizing Stephen Z.Weinstein
as an expert tobacconist. "I feel
this place is definitely a challenge

Olitski exhibit to open
'n B,JOAHR.«EL
ICA's new gallery
#
By JOAN RICKEL
Many universities have art
galleries; some even have permanent collections. Few schools,
however, can claim to have
brought the works of such artists
as Tony Smith, Bruce Conner and
Andy Warhol to their Campus.
Through the Institute of Contemporary Art, the University's
permanent gallery, outstanding
contemporary artists have been
persuaded to contribute their
work to shows which Dr. Stephen
Prokopoff, director of the ICA
has described as "distinguished"
and " significant."
Future plans promise to surpass even these accomplishments
because ICA is planning to move
from its present home in the
Furness Building to larger quarters in the F <ne Arts Building.
Prokopoff described the new gallery as one room measuring
fifty feet square with extremely
high "quite heroic" ceilings.
Because of the nature of the
new facilities, the opening of the
next show will be particularly
significant Prokopoff said. Jules
Olitski, whose show will inaugurate ICA's new gallery, has
created a painting, 12 feet by 10
feet, especially for the premiere.
ICA's new gallery is one of the
few equipped to handle such large
works.
MORE EXHIBITS
In addition, the exhibit swill be
supplemented by more scholarly
catalogues than those issued in
the past. The number of exhibits
will be increased from three or
four per year, as in the past, to
five.
Prokopoff said the Institute is
considering the possibility of a
student show over the summer
months fulfilling, in part, ICA's
goal to have year- round operation
of the gallery.
It is to the credit of the In-
DR. STEPHEN PROKOPOFF
stitute, Prokopoff pointed out,
that exhibits which it has brought
together are beginning to travel
to other campuses. For instance,
the Olitski show will travel to
MIT.
COOPERATION
"The only way they could
have gotten such an exhibit was
through our efforts at enlising
the artist's cooperation," he explained.
The ICA will continue to bring
temporary exhibits to the campus, but its future is uncertain.
According to Time magazine,
"Today college museums across
the country desire both finer and
glossier quarters. In April, the
University of Michigan reopened
a renovated $750,000 museum,
and Brown will soon break ground
for a new $2,000,000 an building."
If Penn follows the trend set
by these universities and other
schools across the country, the
idea of a permanent collection on
our own campus could become a
reality.
Notes and comment
Snack bar
(Continued from page 1)
Peter Freyd headed up the committee.
The proposed snack bar would
serve as an informal gathering
place where students could meet
faculty members at any time
of the day, Dean Brownlee said.
The
12-man
committee,
including six students, makes
recommendations on allocation
of Houston Hall space to John
Hetherston, vice president for
coordinated planning. The committee is now working without
any appropriation of funds for
planning studies.
The Brownlee Committee will,
also allocate the space now occupied by the dining commons,
which will move to the triangle
adjacent to the Men's Dormitories in 1970.
No decision can be made about
the commons space until fire
prevention measures are determined, according to Dean
Brownlee.
She added that construction of
fire towers is being considered.
Improvement in fire prevention
facilities will be necessary in
order to win city approval of remodeling plans, she said.
Plans for possible reconstruction of the first and second
floors, including relocation of
stairways, will await final decisions on fire safety.
Dean Brownlee asserted that
space allocation in Houston
should not be too specific, and
should leave room for future
adaptability.
She cited the
present soda shop and the firstfloor Bowl Room as "two useful,
desirable rooms, which should
be arranged so that future generations using the building can
appropriate them as they see fit."
Plastic flowers
Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel appeared in concert at Convention Hall
Friday night. They brought with them:
one guitar, one stool, one table. Also
appearing at the concert, free of charge,
was the audience. The Penn crowd stuck
out because of its somber dress. The rest
of the crowd, when one eliminates the
Philadelphia version of the high school
student, - against whom there is nothing
left to be said,— was composed primarily
of what have to be termed flower-phonies.
Like reviews of "Sergeant Pepper",
analyses of the hip ethos have reached
even Reader's Digest, the last repository of news. There is a certain element
among the hip, however, which has not
been explored sufficiently. It is this:
although primarily a revolt against the
status quo of society, hipness has infected people who couldn't care less
about society, xit think of nothing but
their " image."
At the conc-.Tt, packs of flower phonies roamed the auditorium pushing, cursing, and in general being as surly as
the middle-class success-myth-dominated fascists their spiritual parents —
the hippies—oppose. What, then, was the
purpose of the Indian shifts, the beads,
the yak-skin boots, the incense that smells
like — magic weed — pot?
What I am doing seems a little like
WILLIAM K. MANDEL
useless nit-picking. It would be if these
people did their own thing, which is being
phony, and left it at that. What they do
with themselves is no one's business
but their own. What is so hateful and
annoying about the whole act, though,
is the sanctimonious, self-serving "love"
routine they hand out. For example:
At a party Saturday night, dress styles
ranged from black tie to coururoy jeans.
One of the stops on this gamut-running
costume scale was a couple dressed as
hipsters. The boy had a flowered shirt
with puff sleeves and high collar, beads
and weird hair; he must have been a
Mahareshi fan.
The credo of love and tolerance for
anything that the hippies espouse -- the
credo this person seems to adhere to
by dint of his dress and speech — is
patently ignored, if not insulted--by his
actions. This phony--and he represents
a whole class of the psuedo-nice -hides his pettiness, jealousy vanity behind a veneer of cool dress and language.
He is the essence of everything that has
soured in a beautiful idea.
His counterparts at the concert trampeled the customers in the front rows at
the end of the program in order to throw
a flower - representing their respect of
love
and peace -at Simon and
Garfunkel.
It was a plastic flower.

Forecast for '68
War cuffs funds
Higher education faces tough year
WASHINGTON
- With
the rising costs of the Vietnam
war, a conservative mood in crucial Congressional committees,
and the possibility of further administration fund freezes, federal
programs for higher

:S:&
education face another tough year
in 1968.
This forecast is particularly
gloomy since present higher education programs fall far short of
what educators say is needed by
colleges and universities. What
Congress did in 1967 didn't help
and educators don't expect anything better in 1968.
In 1967, Congress not only
cut funds for a number of education programs but also failed
to provide budget increases in
many areas where programs cannot continue at the same level
without getting increased funds
each year. Thus, say educators,
many education programs which
technically did not receive budget
cuts actually suffered severe cutbacks merely for the lack of
needed and expected increases.
President Johnson's total federal budget for Fiscal 1969 is
expected to be at least S10billion
different pattern in acting on the
Administration's
budget
requests. From the administration
of President Eisenhower up until
this past year, the subcommittee
normally recommended more
money for higher education than
the President requested. Educators had become accustomed to
this unusual pattern.
But now, the subcommittee
appears to be guided more by
the President's budget proposal.
And in acting on the Fiscal 1968
budget, the subcommittee often
made cuts in President Johnson's
recommendation.
This problem is compounded
by the fact that Congress as a
whole has grown more conservative in the last year. Even if the
subcommittee were to recom-
mend large increases for higher
education programs, the recommendations probably would not
be approved by the House and
Senate.
"Previously, funds appropriated meant funds available," says

tions Subcommittee for the Departments of Labor and Health
Education and Welfare, the
committee that approves funds
for most higher education programs.
The major change on the subcommittee resulted from the
death of its chairman, Rep. John
E. Fogarty (D-R.I.). Fogarty wes
considered a friend of higher
education and had considerable
influence with the members of
his subcommittee. His replacement as chairman, Rep. Daniel
J. Floor (D-Pa.), is more conservative about fiscal matters
and lacks the power that Fogarty
enjoyed. In fact, the subcommittee
is now controlled by Rep. Robert
Michel (R-Ill.), who is considered by many to be a hardline fiscal
conservative.
The result is that the House

Faced with these three factors. Congress appears likely to
take relatively little action affecting higher education during
the 1968 session.

of existing programs, but I don't
expect any major new programs,''

1968. But even if the Administration's new budget request recommends
increases for higher
education, there is little hope
that Congress--which has been
calling for cutbacks in spending
—will approve many if any major
budget increases.
Educators cite three reasons
for their forecast that 1968 will
be no better than 1967:
—The most important problem,
observers agree, stems from the
Johnson Administration's heavy
escalation of the Vietnam war,
which resulted in severe budget
problems for the government.
And as long as the war continues
at the present level, education
officials hold little hope for major
new education programs on the
federal level or adequate funding
for existing ones.
However, these educators
also emphasize that all federal
programs — not just those for
higher education -- are suffering
to pay for the war.
--Within the last year there have
been several changes in the composition of the House Appropria:
given by Congress to the Higher
Education bill on which action
was not completed in 1967. The
House subcommittee already has
held hearings on the bill, but may
hold more. The Senate Education
Subcommittee plans to conduct

one educator. "But now you never
know whether the money is going
to be there or not."
That comment came shortly
after President Johnson announced the "temporary" government wide freeze on spending. The
freeze resulted in across-theboard reductions in the spending
of most Federal agencies, includ-
Commission on Federal Relations
of the American Council on Education. There are a few major
bills coming up, however.
A spokesman for the Special
House Subcommittee on Education said early attention will be
hearings early in the year.
The bill extends the National
Defense Education Act, the
Higher Education Act of 1965,
and the National Vocational Student Loan Insurance Act for five
years, to mid-1973. Numerous
revisions in the three Acts are
proposed in the bill. One would
raise the interest rates on loans
for college academic facilities.
Congress also may consider
a proposal to beef up theguaranteed student loan program which
also was not approved in 1967.
Education officials are expected to lobby for Congress to
pass a new college housing program early in the year. Bills
introduced in both the House and
the Senate are designed to supplement the existing college housing
program, which is at a virtual
three percent rate. Educators
hope the new program will help
relieve the severe college housing shortage without drastically
affecting the government's budget.
Educators also hope Congress
this year will appropriate funds
for the $47.5 million Public
Broadcasting Act. The Act, which
creates the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, was passed by
Congress in 1967 and was considered by many to be the major
new program for education. But
the $9 million in initial funds
has not yet been appropriated, and
President Johnson has appointed
only two of the 15 board members of the Corporation, which
will be a fund-disbursing agency
to finance production of public
service programs

NMS'folding not serious
There may not be enough
financial aid to go around at
Harvard this year, the Crimson's
Dean of Financial Aid warned
last week.
But Douglas Dickson, Pennsylvania's Director of Student
Financial Aid, foresees no similar crisis here.
The problems that face
Harvard are three-fold, according to Dean Chase N. Peterson.
First is the loss of the National
Merit Scholarship Corporation's
scholarships, which provided
some 600 students each year with
the money they needed to attend
college. Approximately onefourth of the NMS winners attend
Harvard.
The College Scholarship Service is changing its tables to
favor middle class students.
And finally, Harvard is raising its rates for board — a raise
that will have to compensated
for
in
aiding scholarship
students.
"But we don't have nearly
that many National Merit people,"
Dixon said in explaining why
Penn won't be affected as much.
And as for the CSS adjusting
its tables, Dixon is well aware
of it: he served on the committee
that implemented it.
"They weren't just sprung on
us," he said. "We've been adjusting toward these new curves
for the last several years. So the
changes really don't put us in a
very difficult position at all." He
noted, however, that next year's
financial aid budget had not yet
been allocated, so no definitive
statements could be made "at
this point."

Alhart, and informed him of the
revisions of the plan.
Alhart then withdrew his request to the Planning Commission.
The superblock plan being
considered by the Redevelopment
Authority will require zoningvariances, but can be approved by
the Planning Commission before
such variances are allowed. Perkins said such a procedure is not
unusual.
"Many plans have come in
and received the approval of the
commission, when members
knew variances would be required," he said. "They have to be
aware of the need for variances,
if any exist, before they can act
properly."

UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
3711 SPRUCE STREET
WASHINGTON
Although almost every college
and university in the country
desperately needs federal assistance in building new dormitories, the government's college
housing program is at a standstill.
With the exception of a brief
30-day period in the spring of
1967, no new applications for
federal college housing loans
have been accepted by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development since January, 1966.
And so far, the funds authorized
for college housing loans in fiscal
1968 have not been released by
President Johnson and the Bureau of the Budget.
The result is that colleges
and universities, at a time when
enrollments
are
increasing
faster than ever before, cannot
depend on the federal government
for low-interest loans to build
dormitories. Since most institutions cannot afford to pay high
interest rates for private loans,
dormitory projects on most
campuses are falling far behind
schedule.
"The shortage in college
housing is a severe problem now,
but the problem is going to become even more acute in the next
few years," says an official of
one education association. "The
fact that loans for college housing
are not being released now is
going to affect today's high school
students more than anybody else.
There simply won't be enough
places for these kids to live."
Educators are not optimistic
that direct loans will be made
available in the immediate future,
especially in view of the Johnson
Administration's crackdown on
spending.
And even when federal funds
for direct loans are released,
the $300 million authorized for
••he program during 1968 will not
go very far in meeting the need,
according to educators. The
American Council on Education
says $1.5 billion will be needed
for college housing during 1968,

with $1 billion of it from the
federal government.
Bills introduced bySen. Jacob
Javits (R-N.Y.) and Rep. Patsy
Mink (D-Hawaii) may help meet
part of the need. Under these
bills, the government would pay
the difference between the interest colleges would have to pay
on borrowings from private
sources and the present government rate of three per cent.
The program would cost the
federal government only about
$10 million, but would make
available about $300 million from
private lenders, in addition to the
$300 million in the direct loan
program.
Although the new program
seems to have strong support in
Congress, it is part of the overall
housing and urban development
bill for 1967, which did not reach
either the House or Senate floors
before Congress adjourned in
December.
If President Johnson releases
his overall 1968 housing program
early in the year, the housing
legislation for 1967 and 1968 may
well be combined into one bill to
save time in Congress. The net
effect of all this would be to
slow down passage of the 1967
housing bill, including the new
college housing program.
The new program, which is
backed by the major education
associations but has been endorsed by President Johnson,
will in no way replace or effect
the direct loan program. In fact,
the freeze which exists in the
present program could still be in
effect when the new program
begins, although this is not likely.
The troubles in the existing
program began in January, 1966,
when the government announced
that no new applications for housing loans would be accepted from
colleges and universities. "Applications were discontinued because we already had $760 million
in requests on hand, and we can
loan only $300 million a year,"
explains J. Trevor Thomas, director of the program.
Thomas said $300 million was
loaned in fiscal I960 and again
in 1967, and "we disposed of the
backlog entirely."
The government accepted new
applications for loans for a 30day period beginning on April 15,
1967, but on a restrictive basis.
The applications were limited to
projects in the advanced stages of
planning, Thomas said. At the
end of the period, all applications
were discontinued again.
When the 1968 fiscal year began last July, funds for the program were not released, and thus
new applications were still not
accepted. Most observers thought
the funds were being withheld
pending the outcome of President
Johnson's proposal to remove the
present three per cent interest
ceiling on the loans and substituting a sliding rate based on the
average market yield of comparable government obligations.
Education officials estimated
that this change would cost each
student $100 extra a year- in
dormitory fees.
But the Administration's proposal was turned down by the
Senate Banking and Currency
Committee. The proposal was
not even introduced in the House.

Frosh rally thwarted Varsity mermen lose
by late Tiger surge to Indians and Army
By HOWARD TOPEL
Flash back to Penn's 76-75 heartbreaking freshman basketball
loss to Villanova two weeks ago and you have the story of the yearling's 81-78 defeat at the hands of Princeton on Saturday night.
Just as in the Wildcat contest, the Red and Blue battled back
from a large (42-29) halftime deficit only to fall victim to late game
heroics by one of the opposition's players.
On Saturday the culprit was Princeton's Bill Sickler, whose
three-point play with 12 seconds remaining gave the Tigers a 79-78
lead they never relinquished. Sickler fired in five of Princeton's
last seven points after two free throws by Dave Wohl had put Penn on
top 78-74 with 1:27 left in the game.
Two foul shots by Jim Bright sealed the win for Princeton, but it
was the dismal first half that set the stage for the Quaker* s fourth
loss in eleven contests.
"It was the worst half we played all year," reflected Red and
Blue mentor Dick Phelps. And indeed it was, as poor shooting and
repeated turnovers enabled Princeton to outscore Penn 18-6 over a
nine minute span near the end of the half.
6'7" center Scott Early, who was the game's top point man with
28, led Princeton's first half
surge with 20 of his tallies. Eric
Neuman contributed 13 markers
as the Tigers raced to their 13
point halftime advantage.
The two teams traded buckets
:hroughout the second half, and
Penn still trailed by nine, 71-62,
with 6:16 to play. A Quaker
charge, led by Billy Hait, Jim
Wolf, and John Koller carried
the Red and Blue back into contention at 72-70, 16 minutes into
the half.
With the score 74-70, Billy
Katz crashed the Quaker offensive board hard for a rebound,
and his resulting three point
play cut the Tiger lead to one.
Steve Bilsky followed with a free
throw, Wolf tapped in an errant
shot, and Wohl hit his two charity
tosses before Sickler's heroics
brought Princeton back from apparent defeat.
Katz, a 6'3" forward, was
Penn's leading offensive threat
throughout the game. Scoring on
short jump shots from the corners and continuously beating his
man on baseline drives, the
Levittown, Pa. native topped the
Quaker attack with 21 points.
Wolf and Wohl followed with 16
and 15 respectively, while Neuman had 23 and Sickler 22 for
Princeton.
The Quaker yearlings return
to Big Five play tonight with a
7 P.M. encounter at St. Joseph's.
The Hawks are in. the throes of a
four game losing streak, but have
a winning 6-5 slate overall. They
are 0-3 in intra-city play.
Bobby Atene, a high school
All-American from Philly, leads
St. Joe's freshmen in scoring
with a 15.7 average. 6'5" Eric
Mitchell is the team's leading
rebounder, averaging 11.4 ricochets a game.
BILL KATZ
Tops Quaker attack
Last weekend, Dartmouth and
Army swam the Quaker mermen
on successive days, easily
proving that Penn swimming still
has a long road ahead until it can
match its Eastern Intercollegiate
Swimming League foes.
Friday afternoon, Dartmouth
rolled into the Gimbel pool with a
varsity comparable to the Yale
contingent which had previously
romped over the Quakers. Winning every single event and dominating the meet from the
beginning, the Big Green easily
won, 83-30.
Both diving events were swept
by the Hanoverians. In the
3-meter competition, Indian Mike
Brown amassed 264.30 points
with an excellent collection of
dives. Finishing behind Brown
was teammate John Glaser and
Penn's Steve Sinclair.
Record - breaking efforts
came on the part of Dartmouth's
Bill Becker and Mike Harvey,
and Penn's Conrad Reddick, who
broke an existing Red and Blue
varsity record.
Becker's effort came in the
100-yard freestyle event with a
time of 50.8. He was followed
in that race by Penn's Dewey
Slater and Fred Nahas.

a good time of 2:09.3, with Quaker
Steve Morrow very close behind.
Saturday, the mermen fared
no better, losing to Army 72-40,
but managed to capture a few
firsts including the 400-yard
medley relay.
Throwing his best against the
West Pointers, coach George
Breen went with the winning lineup of Chick Wigo, Conrad

fine time of 3:47.5.

teammate Jim Liough and Penn's

"There is a new look in Penn
swimmingj' said coach George
Breen about the freshman swimming team. The new look was
seen by the largest audience
ever to see a freshman swim
meet last Saturday as the frosh
suffered their first defeat, 52-43
to the Army plebes.
With the score 45-43 Army,
and only the 400 yard freestyle
relay remaining, Penn's chances
for an upset looked good, when
coach Breen chose Steve Kowal,
Mike Morely, Jim Miller, and
Dave Gleason to do the swimming.
Army won the event by a body
length, breaking the old pool record of 3:24.5 by almost five
seconds with a phenomenal
3:19.7, but the win was as much
Penn's as it was Army's. "We
never could even kid our boys
that they had a chance against
Army" said coach Breen before

the meet. "This year with all
the new talent and spirit we
have, I don't even have to tell
them; they know they can win."
The reasons for the dynamic
upsurge in Penn swimming start
with coach Breen. A former
Olympic
champion
himself,
Breen is the only Ivy mentor
who coaches both varsity and
freshman. He praises this year's
varsity for being the most helpful recruiters, and he considers
the new Gimbel pool as the "catalyst" in molding together the
frosh powerhouse.
In the Army meet the
lead
changed hands six times. Army
opened up a seven point lead by
winning the medley relay, but
Dave Gleason and Mike Morely
finished first and second respectively in the 200 yard freestyle
to tie the score at 8-8.
Dave Frisch, a high school
All-American, came from behind
in the breast stroke of the 200
yard individual medley to win it,
and put Penn in the lead. Rookie
Fermon and John Close finished
second and third in the diving
to keep Penn in the lead by one
point 22-21.
In the sixth event, Peter Redmayne looked like a sure winner
in the 200 yard butterfly. He
stopped after the sixth lap
thinking he was done and lost the
lead. Redmayne fought back to try
and regain it but the lead was too
big and he finished second.
Army's Bill Thayer broke
two pool records, one of them a
50.0 in the 100 yard freestyle
event, as he opened up a commanding lead for the plebes with
only a few events remaining.

in overtime thriller
In tune with the recent varsity .effort, the frosh six produced a
sudden-death thriller of their own Saturday at the Arena, but with a
less pleasant result. The Quaker freshmen fell 8-7 after knotting the
score with only 1:08 remaining in regulation time.
The frosh encounter not only produced a dramatic closejbut a controversial one as well. Quaker goalie Mike Griffin.who played a
game with some moments of brilliance and even more numerous
lapses, was ejected with six seconds left for throwing a broken
stick into the stands.
Griffin's ejection forced frosh mentor Bill Constantine to use
Lee Meyer, second line goalie. Meyer, coming into the game in a
critically pressured moment, proved unable to block the first shot
during his short stint at the nets. The shot that whizzed by the frosh
sub was a vicious slap shot from three feet beyond center ice by the
Indians star Dave Farago, who contributed five goals and two assists
for the Dartmouth frosh.
During the opening minutes of the first period Dartmouth appeared to be running away with the game. Two shots that should have
been easily stabbed by Griffin alluded his grasp - giving the Indians
a 2-0 lead with only 2:34 gone by.
The Quaker first line quickly
atoned for their goalie's lapses.
