I ( Continued on page 4) I i¦i Dr. Harvey A. Andruss, President of BSC has announced that the college will receive $2,052 ,660 to cover its expenses " from July 1, 1962 , to Ju n e 30, 1963. This appropriation does not include over two and a half million dollars required for the construction of two dormitories and an addition to the Heating Plant at BSC. The new appropriation represents a $95,000 increase over the period covering June 1, 1961, to J u ne 30, 1962. This increase was made possible by the announcement of Governor Lawrence that the budget would provide $580 per for each student enrolled as of ;year September, 1961. Previously $530 had been allotted per student. Based on the provision of $580 for each student , the Commonwealth will provide $1,102,000 of the total appropriation of $2,052, 660. The remainder of the amount will be collected from students at BSC in the form of charges for basic fees and housing. Frosh Head Semester Probationar y Report Of the 573 probationary BSC students first semester, 247 freshmen comprise the largest percentage of the list.-The remainder are upperclassmen w h o s e semester average is lower than 2.0. Many of the students on probation this semester have a cumulative average of 2.0 or better, however, Approximately 80 students now have a critical scholastic standing. These students will meet with their divisional directors to determine the future of their college career. Whether or not they will remain in college will be decided on the basis of their professional promise and the probability of achieving and maintaining a 2.0 average.

Breach of Contract Request for breach of contract was based on the following eviden ce : The Community Government Association contracted for sixteen musicians and only fifteen were present for the performance—one less than the contracted amount. Since the absent musician, a drummer, is a key figure in the Count Basie orchestra, the concert presented was of inferior quality; this would not have been true if he were present* The high waj k-out number during the concert and intermission accounts for this.

So, let's consider The facilities and the services of the college library have steadily improved with recent additions and innovations. Microfilm is now available for research, and not too long ago a new system for checking out books and materials was set up. Between June and December 1961, approximately 1400 new books were put into circulation which does not include bound volumes. In the school year 1960-1961, more than 3400 new books were added. This amount was almost double the total number of books that were added in the previous five-year period, 1955-1960. LIBRARY HOURS EXTENDED Access to more reference materials and a desire expressed by many students to use the library for study brought about the most recent change — extension of library hours. The result of this change was the work of the Library Policy Committee of CGA and the library staff. The library personnel recommended that the library remain open during dinner hour for students who prefer to study during that time. They have also rescheduled their work hours. Library hours are now 7:50 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday; 7:50 a.m. until 4:50 p.m. Saturday; and 2:30 until 9:00 p.m. Sunday. IMPROVEMENTS APPRECIATED Appreciation for these improvements has been voiced among the students. Publicly, we extend a vote of thanks to the administration for their cooperation ; to faculty members and students who have worked to bring about improvements; and to the library staff. The additional amount of time and work involved is recognized by the college community. Is it reflecting on student grades too? The probationary list is not as long as it was previous semesters. Let's consider... and show appreciation by taking advantage of the services and being courteous while doing so. letter . . to the A*F*Eases Student 'm Standards Editor Prog United States Air Force head- Dear Editor : What this campus needs is not a good five-cent cigar, but an organization interested in foreign affairs and the world situation. Many of us would like to study or teach abroad, but we just don't know how to find out where we could go, or how to get there, or what to expect once we are there. Others on campus would like the opportunity to talk to foreign students visiting the United States. A number of students have expressed an interest in an organization that would encompass these and many more ideas. Anyone interested in starting such an organization, contact Karen Haywood, Box 427, as soon as possible—we want to get started!

Both male and female college graduates may now apply up to age 29 % and seven months prior to graduating from an accredited college or university. College graduates are required to attend a 90-day pre-commissioning course at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, and upon completion are assigned to a position for which they are trained at college or are given the opportunity to apply for flying training.

RICHARD C. SAVAGE 9 r t Notes & Quotes by SUE HALK YARD One of the "big lies" that has been fed to the American people and is still continually being fed to them this very day is that the appeal of Communism is to the poor, n aked , and hungry ! This is the Biggest Lie, for the appeal of Communism has always' been to the student and the intellectual mind. In every country the Communists have taken over they have used the poor as a means, but the actual take-over has been accomplished by the subversion of the student and intellectual minds. Communism Challenges Students The nature of that appeal is a promise that the student and the intellectual can achieve two things by association with the Communist party : He can participate in the conquest of the world ; after the conquest of the world he can then participate in a program to change human nature, perfect human character, and populate the entire earth with a new qualify of personality infinitely superior to any that history has ever known. When you ask the Communist a simple question : "How are you going to change human nature?" they would answer with one word —and that word is "science." The reply: "We are scientists. Science has changed the world of animal husbandry. We can use science to oVcrn Vmmnn nntiirft itsnlf " Infiltrating College Campuses Communists are not born — they a re made . They are being formed constantly on the campuses of the world. As long as youth are disillusioned and confused, materialistically oriented and spiritually unfulfilled, there will be no lack of Communist recruits. Herein lies the greatest challenge of education today. T'Vi q l^ A lllWl rmn>!/i!iii nonnlo c im rvlv ve>a *¦» hJ ****^ **^ JV^$ average of approximately 20 points per game.

On January 6, the Huskies defeated Shippensburg State College. Millersville, once a powerhouse, lost to the Huskies 17-11 ; the score was tied at 11 points by the time of the last two matches. The Husky line-up for the meet was shifted due to the absence of Bill Garson. Dave Stuempfle , Dick Scorese and Bill Paule all wrestled over their weight. Bob Hall, 177, was moved to the unlimited slot. Individual Results Scorese was the only BSC wrestler to turn in a pin. Bill Hughes, Ed Taylor, Stuempfle , and Hall each decisioned. Tom Gorant , a senior who has been student teaching, wrestled the 137 spot and was pinned. Both Paule (157) and Gene Dixon (167) were decisioned. Dixon wrestled Walt Kottmeier as he did last year when the match came to a tie.

This is an unusual case with Count Basie and his orchestra, and unfortunately it happened here.

Although the Husky mermen were winless in 1961, (0-6 ) , the squad has made steady progress and fans are hoping that this year the swimmers will gain recognition in the collegiate ranks. Of the nine returning lettermen, only one — Tom Little, is a senior. Of the seven new swimmers, one is a sophomore and six are freshmen.

The Huskies won six of the eleven events against Millersville. Swarts took both the 200 yard individual medley and the 200 yard back stroke. Don Young won the 50 yard free style, Ron Lazarus the diving, and Lou Konetski the 400 yard free Betty Ann Sf?w^ style. Millersville set a new record d f or their college in the 400 yard d medley ; the new time is 4:37.

Of the eight meets on the schedule,, th e Huskies, led by co-captains Little and Nelson Swarts, hope to at ; least break even in the win-loss department .
