Rally a milestone for students
by Sharon Hamilton
Joann Morse
"Today's rally is a
milestone
for
students.
We're not here to burn or
destroy but to show our concern as students of state
colleges."
This statement was .made
by Mike March, President of
the Board of Coordinators of
CAS (Commonwealth Association of Students) as he
started the rally held on the
steos of the capitol building
in Harrisburg.
Some 2,000 students
represented the 13 state
colleges and Indiana Uni/ersityat the rally on Dec. 4.
They were there to show the
legislators
and Governor
Shapp their need of fimds.
The students listened to 18
speeches from student officers, faculty members and
state legislators.
Dan Bair, President of
CAS stated the goals of the
rally as 1) to show legislators
and citizens the importance
of state colleges 2) to get
the 7.4 million increase in
funds, 3) try to prevent
tuition increase and financial aid decrease and 4) to
show the concern of the
students and their ability to
work as a group.
Following Dan Bair,
K. Leroy Irvis. Democratic
member of the House of
Representatives, who spoke
on Resolution 64. Resolution
64 proposes setting up a
committee to study the possibility of lowering tuitions
in state colleges. The bill
was passed in the House
but defeated in the Senate
because a series of admendments had been added that
they did not approve of Mr.
Irvis stated "In the Commonwealth they still equate the
dollar with education. It is
still up to the pocketbooks

of the father and mother as
to who gets the best education." He went on to suggest
free public higher education
as did other speakers.
Created with a series of
boos, and proclamations of
"We need money, not talk,"
John Pittenger, Secretary of
Education, addressed the
crowd. He stated that the
students should "Be as
affected to the state college
system as you can." He
went on to say, "State
college students have not
been adequately represented
in the legislature," and
suggested, "We need a permanent presence in Harrisburg."
Under the strong request
from
the audience, the
speech was changed to a
question and answer period.
Mr. Pittenger was asked
many rehtorical questions
but many valid concerns were
'also expressed. These he

iismissed with brief answers
«hich evaded the main idea
pf the question.
Directly following Mr.
Pittenger was Mr. Doug
|DOWS,

president

of

LHS.

iThe speech Doug gave was
brief and to the point. He
discussed the greater need
for money in colleges then
other organizations by observing 'Students are forced
to cough money up out of
their own pockets," whereas
other organizations are not.
In reference to Mr.
Pittenger's speech he commented "Pittenger didn't
really talk about tuition
increases but Nixon doesn't
talk about Watergate either."
He ended not by saying lets
fire John Pittenger but "let
us retrench John Pittenger."
'
There were also many
other speakers from various
colleges and organizations,
the overall effort of these
people was a well organized
ind effective rally.

Third floor High soon'very empty place'
by Joyce Yotcaski
The girls living on
High Hall's Third floor
received
their
evection
notices on October 31st.
The girls, 26 in all, were
temporarily placed in the
Men's residence hall because
of a high enrollment of
Women students.
There has been some
confusion and frustration as
to where the girls will be
transferred. Other questions
raised were the splitting up
of roomates and the close
friends that they have nede.
Miss
Marilyn
Heimlich,
Assistant Dean •- Student
Life, assured the girls she
would try her best to keep
roomates and friends together,
but nothing can be promised.
The girls on third floor
have mixed feelings about
the situation. Wing Representative, Dotma Smith, said

"It was great while it lasteo,
but I guess all good things
have to come to an end
eventually. I feel it may be
difficult for everyone involved to adjust to , the
situation." Because of the
girls "isolation" from the
other girls dormatdries they
have all become very close
and they all voice a fear of
separation from one another.
The third floor hall is
now decorated for the holidays.
The girls have given the
lobby a living room type
appearance with a "fireplace", a tree, rugs, chairs,
and couches, and the traditional decorations.
Sally Tome, counselor
for the third floor, feels it
will not be easy for the
girls to adjust to the situation,
and she is thankful |qr the

kindness and cooperation of
Miss Heimlich and the other
women advisors, but , said
"I'm sure gonna miss my
girls!"
As for the guys on the
two bottom floors, some
feel as John Thomas: "the
hall won't b.e the same
without them. If we had our
say, they would s t a y . " Mike
Crone says, "Boys will be
boys. Sometimes we have to
watch our tongues, but we
have developed a good rapor
with the girls, and will be,,
truly sorry to see them go.
Other comments "were,
"I am opposed to seeing the
girls leave High Hall. I feel
that mixed dcrms enhance a
students college experience."
and "Hig^ Hall without
the third floor girls would be
a very empty place."

All for energy
by Joe Savrock
With the energy crisis
becoming
more
severe,
ftesident
Nixon is taking
action to establish measures
by which energy can be
conserved. I have drawn up
several proposals of my own
which I am sure would
greatly reduce the severity
of the crisis.
The
government has
proposed to restore the
naticm to Dayli^t Saving
Time. An extra hour of
dayli^t in the evening
would reduce the need for
electrical lighting.
I suggest that we set
the clock ahead by three
hours instead of one. We
would thereby increase the
amount of energy saved. Of
course daybreak would not
occur until 9 o'clock, but
everybody's in a fog at that

time of the day and lighting
would not be helpful.
A national speed limit
of 55 miles per hour is a
good step. But a reduction
to 20 m.pji. on say, Sundayand perhaps Friday and
Saturday-would represent a
considerable
saving
of
I gasoline. If the energy crisis
worsens, other days of the
week could be added to the
list of "twenty to dave
plenty" days.
Such a move migjit cause
some
perplexities,
but
imagine how drastic highway
accidents would decline.
Maybe the best move of
all would be to close the
world for the winter. Like
bears and other animals, we
could hibernate for about
four months. Parkas would
be needed in lieu of pajamas,
though.

Arfs building won't be fine until 1976
The Fine Arts Building
has been put to use by the
Music Department, who hold
rehearsals there. The groups
which use this facility are
the College Singers, the
Choir, the Choral Seminars,
the College Band, and the
College Community Orchestra.
The reasoning behind
using the Fine Arts Building
is a lack of available space
in Price Auditorium where
all the groups have practiced,
Dr. Lynch, director of
the
College
Community
Ochestra, said he was
pleased to move over to the
John Sloan Building for
rehearsals because Price
Auditorium presented problems with lighting facilities
and having enough electrical
outlets. "It is nice to be
able to go to a rehearsal hall
where the equipment is
already there and doesn't
need to be taken down and
s t a e d away after every
practice," commented Dr.
Lynch.
Dr. Nelson discussed
the fact that it was an
encouraging lift. "It is the
first time we have a place of
our own, for our use; the
equipment is there and ready
to use. Also for the first
titne students have a place

to go for individual practice."
Dr. Gary Renzelman,
Choir Director, said, "We
are glad to be able to use
the Fine Arts Building;
we've been' cramped for
space for so long. We have
moved the grand piano from
the Planetarium, and brought
our music and chairs from
Price. But we all still
perfam in the Auditorium."
Mr.
Meckley,
Mr.
Stevenson's
assistant,
remarked that the rooms
which are in use by the
music department are heated
at regular room temperature,
but maintenance has the

ability to reduce the heating
in the rest of the building, so
that it is just warm enough
to keep it from freezing."
Dr. Milliken discussing
the future plans of the
building expects it will be
opened by next fall, however
this depends upon the bill
being passed by the state
legislature
appropriating
money for items, like the
furniture. Hopefully, this
will be accomplished by the
end of their calendar year,
this month. Dr. Milliken does
not anticipate the building
ibeing totally complete till
1976, because of the ordering
of specialized equipment.

The money isn't there'
health services 'minimal'
by Donna Leggett
Is it the college's
responsibility to provide
health
services
for
the
1 students?
Dr. Milliken believes
only
"minimal".
"We
shouldn't provide prolonged
'treatment or difficult diagnosis." He states that the
cost of student services is
horrendous. "We try and keep
up with the times and the
mot»y isn't
there,"
he

explained.
Milliken contends that
the total picture of health
service is changing. "Nurses
should play a more expanded
i role as the part of drug and
sex educators."
Milliken would like to
see the Infirmary as more of
an education center. Plans
are being suggesieu to find
adequate training programs
for the employees of the
Infirmary.
