UPSG Assembly blocks Professors refuse NSF grants to move to slash CIC funds protest fund cut-off to war critic

The UPSG Assembly halted a UPSG Finance Committee move Monday night to slash the Community Involvement Council's allocation by more than half, although most of the government budget was passed.

The CIC allocation was deleted from the budget and sent back to the Finance Committee for reconsideration. Presently the CIC has no UPSG funds available for their use.

The carried budget had $104,040 in allocations. A total of $4,320 in appropriations was deleted for reconsideration by the Finance Committee.

"A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE"

Cooper began an audit on the books of the CIC on Tuesday. He said that no effort had been made this summer by the Finance Committee to contact the CIC officers for allocation discussions and added, 'We are willing to forego the money; it's a matter of principle this al- location."

Other deletions from the budget were the Dorm Parliament alloca- tion and the allocation to the Sphinx and Key Society.

HH store expands and adds new departments

Houston Hall Store, University owned and operated book and supply store, expanded over the summer.

The store has two rooms, a record section which includes stereo, hi-fi and television sets, and an odds-and-ends annex, which includes just about evf -ythlng, from portable kangaroo chairs to teapots, from watches and Pennsylvania jewelry to rugs.

By expanding its size, Houston Hall Store is now able to arrange their books by subject instead of publisher. A frequent complaint of patrons last year, according to George Kidd, assistant director of the store, was that they could never find a book that they were looking for.

The new system, Kidd said, will improve things all around." It will make shopping easier, for the student, while increasing our sales of books by placing related material together."

CHARGE ACCOUNTS Another new innovation in the Houston HallStore this year are charge

accounts. Any student may open a charge account after the store receives a

letter from his parents giving permission. At the end of the year, the bills will be sent home for the parents to pay, not the student, Kidd said.

Kidd explained mat the reason for parental permission was not that the students weren't trusted, but simply that the store realizes that funds run very low at the end of the year, and that many students just would not have the money available to pay their bills.

The store's check cashing service has also changed this year to allow students to cash checks up to $50 for a ten cent fee.

Oh, green frosh Poetic justice, you might call it. A

panel on commitment cancelled because no one showed up.

Ironically funny, you might say. The activists being forced to stop talking be- cause no one wanted to listen.

Pathetic, you might say. One of the most important activities of New Student Week canned because the students just didn't care.

It was a good group they got together: The chairman of the Student Committee on Undergraduate Education (SCUE), the head of the Men's Residence Board (MRB), co-chairman of the Community Involve- ment Council (CIC), the editorial chair- man of The Daily Pennsylvanian (DP), the president of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF), and more.

SCUE, MRB, CIC, DP, YAF. Alpha- bet soup, you might say. Who needs It?

The answer frosh, oh green, green, frosh. is you. You need it.

One of the most popular teacher in the Department of Economics consistently maintains that a full three fourths of a college education is gained outside of the classroom. Talking, thinking, working, politicking, writing, helping, being com- mitted.

No time, huh? Too much work? Social life too much for you?

You're making a big mistake if you limit yourself to studying, drinking, dat- ing, and throwing the bull, frosh.

Do something, Get involved. Live in the real world. Commit yourself to some- thing.

the so-called figures in their so-called clean hands, uttering line after line about how this $20,000 reserve fund is con- tingent and that $19,000 allocation is in escrow if escrow exists, and totally con- fusing an audience whose sole purpose was to confuse them.

You couldn't really say they were play- ing God, or anything, decreeing which campus organizations would live and which would go bankrupt. Actually they were only deciding which ones would be allowed into Heaven (which, we all know, is white and besphinxkeyed).

And here was Joe (Have pity on me, boys, I'm resigning just as soon as this thing is through!) talking about well, we couldn't really let them have all this, and well, we'll let the University audit their assets before we decide.

BUT OFF STAGE

Off stage, of course, he was telling you how he came into government despis- ing pure party politics and finding that politics still exist, decided to nobly resign. Maybe government would let him be a NEUTRAL finance committee chairman. ("I don't want to boast, but I really think I'm the only one capable of handling the Job.")

Sure. Joe. Took you long enough. No- ble gesture. Got classes every Monday night after this, huh?

Here was Jimmy - everybody's favor- ite arbiter, umpire and all-winking Kite- and-Keyer. Here is Jimmy pumping Joe like a shill every time the going gets rough. That's right Jim, ask the right questions. How much did Penn Comment ask for, Joe? Eleven thousand, Jim. And how much are we giving them, Joe? Four thousand, Jim. Right, so you see with big things as this, don't mind the fact

that Community Involvement Council was cut from $4300 to $1500.

Tell that to the neighborhood kids, Joe and Jim.

WHY, THEY ASK

Here was one assemblyman asking, Why can't we see if we can Juggle these figures around and allocate more to CIC? Why does Dorm Parliament need $2800? Why does Kite and Key need $2700? Why is CIC getting only $1500?

The edicts came down from Pande- monium. Y-o-u n-e-v-e-r a-s-kaK-i-t-e a-n-d K-e-y m-a-n w-h-y h-e n-e-e-d-s m-o-n-e-y.

Dorm Parliament has always received $2800; It's traditional.

Because CIC didn't present us with an orderly budget.

ORDERLY!!!

WHERE WAS THE CHIEF Here weren't Bob and Al. They weren't

necessary. Jimmy and Joel and somebody everybody vaguely remembered electing the treasurer had the circus In complete control.

Here was John Myers, explaining how C.I.C. had grown in one year from 350 to 500 volunteer students, a 40% increase, almost one-twelfth of the entire under- graduate enrollment. And with a 40% increase, and with new projects being added, why were they being cut 66%?

MORE AND MORE, AND

Meanwhile let's give Hey Day $2500, and Introduction to Pennsylvania another three grand, and let's throw in another $2500 for a Freshman Directory (shouldn't the University pay for that?).

But look! says Jimmy, the Chess Club wanted $1100 for new clocks, but we fig- gered they only need $370 for transporta- tion, and we cut only a thousand off of Connaissance, and really cut Penn Cinema, so really we're GREAT, aren't we?C'mon, gang, let's all sing how great we are: Yeaaa, UPSG!

And besides, says Joe, CI.C.'s secre- tary didn't present us with enough of an itemized account of their expenses. ("Did you ever talk to our secretary?" asks John from CIC. "No," says Joe ) JUGGUN ACT

Here is one assemblyman asking, But why can't we investigate these figures

more closely? Why can't we juggle them? "Because it's not within the province

of this Assembly to question the findings of the Finance Committee," says Jimmy. (Marked approval and occasional huz- zahlng.)

Here's Penn Triangle requesting and getting, an allocation of $7400. For once in his political life, Buddy dissents with The Bloc. "Can't they cut their costs any by limiting their circulation to the en- gineering schools? I mean, who wants to read all that stuff?"

Joe proudly steps forward and expos- tulates "Triangle had the most perfect- ly exact and accurate set of books for us to examine and for this we felt they ought to get the money.''

WHAT???

Rewarding efficiency, Joe? That's a lit- tle hard to believe.

Upon leaving, a member of the audi- ence donned a pair of official Mickey Mouse ears. Joe was heard to say, "Wear it well?" Wear your laurels well, Joe. And, oh, by the way, R.I.P.

NO SPACHE, TTOKEE

Editor, The Daily Pennsylvanian:

I was informed this week that parking facilities for students are no longer avail- able. Although I applied on Monday, Sept. 11, the personnel at 3025 Walnut Street replied that, "the garage's been all filled up." They were, of course, unable to recommend alternative solutions - but my question is, "does anyone in the Univer- sity Hierarchy have a solution?"

Because of the parking problem, I will not be driving to classes, but I am re- signed to the inevitability of the wasted money and time via P.T.C.

I dread the day, however, on the rare occasion when I will need a car, of parking somewhere in the Labyrinth that is the streets of the University City - and I dread as well the parking ticket that may follow a hurried rush to class on an expired meter.

And what madness awaits those students who live further from campus than I?

Perhaps the newspaper, as the only student institution on campus with the actual power potential to make things happen, can aid the forgotten commuter?

By inquiring of those departments re- sponsible for the underpinning, perhaps there is still hope this semester for those of us who cannot afford the $22/month fee of private parking lots.

I do not want to know "why the shortage exists" or "who Is directly responsible" or "what will be done next year" or what "great plans are on the drawing board" -

I want to know where to park my car! Warren I J. Dennis Claas '70

Fashion award-winner, Stephen I appears in recent issue of Esquir

By ANDRIA THAL

THE DAILY PENNSYLVANIAN

The power of submission PAGE FIVE

A celebrity walks the campus, unrecognized and unplagued by thrill-crazy crowds. He mas- querades as a senior from Coral Gables Florida but, in fact, he was a model for the September, 1967, issue of Esquire Magazine. This modern Walter Mltty is toothy, green-eyed Stephen Hal- pern.

Steve secured the glamorous job in a rather unorthodox manner; no movie director discovered him perching on a stool at the Dirty Drug. Instead, a female admirer submitted his name and descrip- tion to the "Best Dressed Man on Campus" Contest, headquartered at John Wanamaker in Philadelphia and sponsored by Esquire Maga- zine.

ONE OF TWELVE "I didn't know until after she

did it," he confesses. "Then one day last winter I received a tele- gram from Chip Tolbert, the fashion editor of Esquire. It said I'd been selected as one of the twelve best-dressed college men. He flew to Philadelphia and inter- viewed me at the Sheraton Hotel." The colleges of the other winners include the University of Maryland, the University of Miami, and Brown.

Off for a week in New York, all expenses paid, went Steve and the other winners* last March. Aside from generous expense ac- counts and dates with high-fashion models, the boys received $250 worth of clothes and bonus checks for $75.

GREAT WORK. IF . . . "I may model now in my spare

time," says Steve. "The pay is great. Most of the male models I met were working their way through college and some of them made up to $300 a day.

"Any boy interested in appearing on the glossy fashion pages of a men's magazine should find a repu- table photographer and pose for

hundreds of shots, wearing dif- ferent clothes in" each one. Most photographers will do it free of charge since It's great free pub- licity for them after the hopeful model offers his portfolio to various agencies.

"It's not a question of looks," Steve points out. "If the clothes hang well, and if a guy has poise, an agency will accept him."

From his observations in New York of men's clothing shows and

STEPHEN HAIJPERN modeled for Esquire magazine

design sessions, Steve forecasts that "three piece suits will be everywhere for a long time. Twill is a great new fabric for them. Ties and shirts will be coordinated and in brighter colors. The ex- treme Mod look is a fading trend, though semi-fitted or double- breasted jackets, buckled shoes and open-backed driving gloves are here to stay. Of course corduroy pants, corduroy jackets, and long hair will be seen on every man on campus, not to mention that old reliable standby, the crew neck sweater."

delphia Pageant, a preliminary step to the Miss America Pageant is now open. All single Philadelphia girls between the ages of seven- teen and twenty-seven are eligible for the contest. In addition they must be high school graduates by June, 1968, and residents of Philadel- phia at least six months before the Pageant. Out of towns girls at- tending college in Philadelphia are eligible as are hometown girls at- tending college outside of the city.

Complex problem of involvement By JUDSON BROWN

Our generation keenly feels the need to get signi- ficantly involved in the events of the day. The in- tensity and sincerity with which students respond to the Vietnam war, the problems of poverty and equality and political issues are proof of their obses- sion and interest.

However, intellectual and heated response Is not enough If it does not lead to active, physical par- ticipation. The world of Ideas is much more glorious than the world three blocks north of campus because opinions can be rearranged, facts cannot. Despite great amounts of concern and activity, students are incapable of producing change anywhere until they stop insisting that everything accomplished must be on a large, significant scale. It is difficult to find suitable outlets for grand illusions.

INVISIBLE AREAS A case in point, of course, is the West Phila-

delphia community, Unit m to the Redevelopment Authority. The modern history of this area is a frantic and absorbing study in frustration. The com- munity is a number one problem area, where per- spectives are cloudy and reality is harsh. It may not be glorious to walk into a disintegrating neighbor- hood or to lend a hand to the bewildered Negro who doesn't know where to turn, but then where else can we be effective? The Christian Association, CIC, and IFC are attempting to replace the illusionary perspective prevalent on the University campus. A re-examination of our effectiveness, of the direction and magnitude of our involvement might make many of us see the invisible areas in which to apply ourselves.

But the problem is a complex one. The work that the undergraduate can do in respect to the com- munity is humble labor. He has to abandon his passion for power, and stop insisting on directing affairs. In other words, he must submit himself to the existing framework, and respect existing in- stitutions.

LACK OF TIME According to one authority on campus, "The stu-

dents are incapable of filling the role completely. They lack the time, the ability, and the tempera- ment."

The routine of classes and campus obligations prevents the student from spending more than just a few hours a week in the neighborhood. Popping in and popping out, the student fails to gain respect or the trttst Of the citizens. Also, from his own point of view, the student will find it impossible to strengthen the proper point of view. He won't stay with it long enough. Everytime he puts out, he has to put in again. At Penn it seems that the lives of

mm

time limit would be enforced if needed.

Of the 14 people who spoke only one was in favor of the war.

A number of the anti-war speakers called for student par- tlcipatation in the October 20-21 Mobilization against the War in Vietnam. Joel Eber, of the Young Socialist Alliance, said the Mobil- ization would include a sit-in at the Pentagon.

Finnerty urged students to sign the "We Won't Go" petition and the one supporting those signing that petition. He said the peti- tions will be open for signatures until Oct. 16.

The speakers opposing the war denounced the U. S. for the use of napalm and anti-personal bombs. They also decried "Amer- ican agression" and denounced President Johnson as deceiving the public about the war.

The lone supporter of the war was James Mallinsan, a Junior in the college. Mallinson said that the U. S. should take the war to North Vietnam, so that Com- munist agression could be stopped.

student and social worker are almost completely incompatible.

The second problem, ability, is obvious. Exten- sive classroom training and command of social theories and formulas is not sufficient. In any kind of social work, significant gains are held pre- cariously. The rules, as they exist, have more ex- ceptions than not. One deals with human lives. To gain respect from both the Negro community and the white requires a delicate balance, professional precaution. This kind of sensitivity, this political ability, the student does not have.

Closely related to this, and the student's greatest drawback, is his temperament. Through no real fault of his own, the idea that he is superior to most has been ingrained in him. This disastrously af- fects his interactions with the community citizens. His innate snobbery, which he cannot be blamed for, is mistaken by the black community as being excessive self indulgence. In his most subtle, thought- less habits, the well meaning students betray them- selves and become repulsive to those with whom they work. The student does not have the ability to detach himself from his background, from his social being. He cannot go beyond himself.

The self-consciousness of the student is of course increased by the intensity of competition that he has experienced since his high school days. To get where he is he has had to impress people with himself, to assert himself aggressively, to impose.

SUBMISSION TO SOCIETY Finally, the student has to submit himself to

the structure of the Negro community. The power of decision ultimately lies In the hands of the Negro. The student must realize that in getting involved; he is giving himself up. He is becoming a tool. The power groups are going to use the student.

In conclusion, the student can be useful. There are many tasks to be done and not half enough people to do mem. The student can take a great burden off the backs of the "professional" workers by doing menial, unintellectual Jobs which require patience, not skill; devotion, not innovations. The student can contribute, but he must not look for Immediate results, immediate rewards or immediate significance.

He also said that South Vietnam was not yet ready for democracy and until it was the U. S. would have to help guide it.

NSF Grants

(Continued from Page 1) expects, however, that NSF will make some statement to them within the next few days.

He said another statement is being circulated to garner more names since the first one had al- most no publicity other than word of mouth.

By turning down NSF money, Freyd said a full professor loses at least about $5,600 a year, which is paid as a "summer salary." Also, it means educators no longer will be able to use NSF money for travel to foundation meetings, he said.

Freyd said 13 of the signers were in the mathematics depart- ment - almost all of whom will lose money, - eight in the psy- chology department, two in phy- sics, and one in chemistry.

Freyd added that many pro- fessors refused to sign the state- ment because, through their grants, they administer money to other persons and therefore felt it was unfair to cut off funds to

these other persons on a basis of a statement they may not agree with.

He also said that President Harnwell, a physics professor, and Vice-Provost David Goddard, a biology professor, declined to sign the statement because such a move might be construed as meaning that they think no one in the University should accept NSF money.

Harnwell and Goddard sent Freyd a statement which said they would protest directly to the gov- ernment officials responsible If it were true that Smale's grant was denied because of his polit- ical opinions.

UPSG Funds

Cooper said the cuts might have seemed excessive because the phi- losophy of the Finance Committee had been to "pass the bare mini- mum allocation and then let ap- peals be set up with the new com- mittee."

From the Press Box

Fred Shabel: New Face at Weightman Hall

Larry Krohn "^

(FIRST OF A TWO PART SERIES)

It is still far too early to evaluate either the merits of Fred Sha- bel's athletic policy or the quality of his direction. However, in a 75 minute interview Monday, Penn's new athletic director expounded some of his plans, attitudes, and values, revealing much of his per- sonality as he spoke.

Shabel is eminently personable, candid, and young. It is not especial- ly relevant that his age (35) is young, it is rather the young ideas he brings to Penn that should prove of most significance.

Although Shabel rates Penn as an institution very highly, he is not about to let the University rest on its laurels. "I'm here to do a job," says the AD and to him the "job" entails a wide variety of improve- ments.

- DESIRED ADMINISTRATIVE WORK

Shabel's interest in athletic administration dates back to the six year period of 1957-63 when he served as assistant basketball coach at Duke, his alma mater. "I enjoyed coaching and never really tired of it, but I realized during those years at Duke that I didn't want to be a coach for the rest of my life. I wanted to do administrative work and I wanted to be involved in sports, so I resolved to make athletic administration my career."

Shabel realized right away that he could not move to an athletic director's position from his post as assistant basketball coach. "I decided to find myself a head coaching job," says Shabel, "using that as a bridge on my way to administrative work."

HEAD COACH AT CONNECTICUT

The Union City, N. J., native found himself that job at the Univer- sity of Connecticut where he spent four campaigns as head coach. Despite his success there, Shabel still "wanted to get out of coach- ing and into administration." It didn't take him long. At the end of the 1966-67 basketball season, he retired as head coach and took over as assistant director of athletics at the Storrs campus. And on May 31, his ultimate goal was realized when an eleven man selection committee named him to replace Jerry Ford at Penn.

At the time of Shabel's selection, many of the questions surround- ing Ford's dismissal were still unanswered. No one knew what kind of man would be stepping in as athletic director; no one knew how or why this new AD would be different and more desirable an individual than Ford.

Shabel answered many of these questions Monday, some of them verbally, explicitly, and others implicitly.

Jerry Ford was stern, reserved, not unfriendly, but by no means an extrovert. This, no doubt, was a function of his age and the lofty repu- tation he enjoyed among his peers in athletic administration throughout the East.

PERSONALITY DIFFERS FROM FORD'S

In speaking with Fred Shabel, it is not hard to recognize some fundamental differences in personality. The man is open, frank, ex- tremely affable, and, more important, he's willing to discuss an issue reasonably, without bias, and with toleration and understanding of views that oppose his own.

Shabel's bright personality and open mind are assets but they alone cannot command respect. There is also the requisite element of principle. To a large extent, it was Ford's devotion to principle on the 1.6 and track feud issues that engendered alumnus unrest and his eventual downfall.

Shabel was asked Monday 1) if he would stand by his principles on an issue, even in the face of alumnus opposition, and 2) if he thought his job would be in jeopardy should such an occasion arise.

Shabel spoke candidly, with answers that reflected a good deal of prior contemplation.

"I appreciate the alumni very much," he said, "and I'm going to go out of my way to make them happy and content with our program here at Penn. But the alumni will not run this department; that's my job. I do have principles and in the hypothetical case you speak of, where these principles conflict with the desires of alumni, I will stand by them nonetheless. I couldn't in good conscience do anything else.

"I do not feel that my job would be in jeopardy in such a case. An analogy to Jerry Ford's situation is not valid here. I think it's an oversimplification to assert that he was dismissed solely because he opposed the views of alumni. There were many other factors in- volved and I think they were all taken into consideration by those who decided to replace him."

Shabel drove the point home well. Apparently the University was look- ing for someone with an entirely new type of personality, not just a man who could appease alumni. If, as Shabel feels, he is free to follow his conscience and if his principles prove worthy ones, Penn can only benefit from his administration. Sliabel's administrative competence is, of course, still unproven, but in expectation of this competence it seems at the outset mat Penn has good reason for optimism.

CTomorrow Fred Shabel speaks of his relation to the President's office and his ideas on Penn recruiting.)

I stars; opener

By BARRY JORDAN A rash of minor injuries,

plaguing Penn's offensive backs, is just another of the many prob- lems facing head coach Bob Odell as the opening game approaches.

The main concern, of course, Is quarterback Bill Creeden. Cree- den, who was hobbled much of last season by an injury, is now having trouble with a pulled hamstring that kept him out of last Sat- urday's scrimmage. Head trainer Don Fry is confident mat Penn's big man will be fit in time for the Lehigh game.

George Burrell, one of Cree- den' s favorite receivers, is also suffering from a pulled hamstring. He wis also relegated to a non- playing status last weekend and hasn't practiced since summer camp. The speedster should be ready when the first contest rolls around, but his physical condition is a big question mark.

SCRIMMAGE INJURIES

Two players were injured In the Lafavette scrimmatre. but both are likely bets to see action against the Engineers. Stewart Eisen- hower, a Junior defensive back, broke his first metacarpal bone. According to Fry he will be able to play with his hand splinted and taped. The defensive backfleld is very shallow and this may hurt them.

Defensive stalwart Mart Ma- tesic, who limped off the field last Saturday, is out with an ankle sprain, but should be sound for the Lehigh contest.

Sophomore Bob Monahan,a swift pass-catching halfback, has In- flamed tissue near his ankle which has him in the hospital. However, he is to be released in the next few days and should have no fur- ther problems.

Several reserves are presently

Quarterback Bill Creeden (10) sets to throw In last season's opening win against Lehigh. Though slowed by a hamstring injury, he should be ready to start this year against the Engineers.

being hampered by minor sprains. Matt Lawlor, a soph defensive back has a sprained ankle. Ron Ur- ban, a soph defensive end, is also suffering from a twisted ankle. A hamstring problem is bothering Stan Keyser, an offensive guard. Junior Dan Reagen, a defensive tackle, also has an ankle injury.

The only player who doesn't figure to be ready for the Le- high game is Richard Noble, out

with an elbow to jury. Injuries could be a key factor

in determining whether or not the Quakers can improve on last year's 2-7 log. The only place where the Quakers have depth Is at the end position, and in the line-backing corps. Otherwise, an injury at a crucial spot could cripple the Red and Blue. Much of what happens this vear mieht rest in the talented hands of Fry and his staff, whose duty it is to mend football players.

Andrews, Burrell turn to coaching, aiding North Philadelphia teenagers

By MARK LIEBERMAN Almost any Penn sports fan

knows that Pete Andrews is a basketball player. And that same fan will know that George Burrell is a football player.

This summer, Andrews and Bur- rell moved to the other side of the lines and took on the task of coaching underprivileged youths in North Philadelphia in a pilot pro- gram of the Greater Basketball League.

For ten weeks the Quaker ath- letes instructed boys 12-14 years old in the fundamentals of basket- ball as well as coached them in league play.

The boys were divided into 10 teams named after the Big Five schools and five other neighboring colleges.

LASALLE SENDS FOUR

In addition to Andrews and Bur- rell, Temple's John Baum and Clarence Brookins, Villanova's John Jones. LaSalle's George Paull, Dave Ervin, Hubie Mar- shall, and Mike Osborne, and St. Joseph's Danny Kelly and Tom

Lynch participated in the program. For Burrell, this was the first

experience at coaching and the junior footballer found it 'very rewarding."

''We showed them that they could do something. This was the first time that many of these kids had responded to any sort of authority. Now they know and are known on a first name basis by Big Five athletes," Burrell commented.

Both Andrews and Burrell said they can now appreciate what any coach has to go through in basket- ball. Andrews had coached before in camps and in a similar pro- gram in New York City. The junior

basketball player coached the "Penn" team in the League and although their record was not too good, he was impressed by their continued desire to play and their effort.

"We get a lot of support from the parents." Pete noted, "And this helped a lot.''

Burrell added one more com- ment saying, "If we did nothing else, we eliminated the 'Big boys' from the playgrounds. Our kids had complete use of the courts and developed a sense of pride in seeing what they could do In sports."
