He performs everything beneath
bright lights under the closest scrut-
iny of audience representatives.
Third, Dr. Benedict repeats a
seeming violation of a natural law
four times in a form ever-irncreasing
in complexity and at all times, get-
ting the same results. Fourth, he
shows the role of misdirection as
bearing on the psychology of obser-
vation. Lastly, he es what he
calls "original effects" to stress the
uncertainty of relying on conven-
tional "controls" no =matter how
rigidly they are seemingly 'applied.
This lecture has been met with
wild enthusiasm by other collegiate
audiences. A story goes that Prince-
ton boys fought to get into the lec-
ture hall to hear Dr. Benedict. Every-
where, faculty men from schools such
as Stanford, Notre Dame and Cali-
fornia have praised the lecture and
asked that he return.

(Ed. note: This is the first in a series
of' articles explaining student govern-
ment on the campuses of American
universities and colleges).
Student government at the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania is character-
ized by the compactness of the gov-
erning unit. Problems of all phases
of student affairs are taken under
consideration by an all-powerful Un-
dergraduate Council composed of reg-
ularly elected members from the
student body-at-large and the heads
of various campus organizations.
Fraternity activities at Pennsyl-
vania are administered by an inter-
fraternity council as they are here,
but actual power in determining regu-
lations and policy for affiliated men
is invested in the Undergraduate
Council. Athletic problems are sub-
jected to study by the Council, as
are plans for all social activities such
as homecoming, class elections and
dances.
Past experience of Pennsylvania has

Penn Student Council Strong.

shown that separate bodies represent-
ing special interests on campus is not
the answer to successfulstudent gov-
ernment. Therefore, the present Unf
dergraduate Council was established
to coordinate the functions of the
smaller and varied organizations.
However, in order to make certain
that existing bodies have a voice in
the Council, its constitution provides
that the membership shall include in
addition to regularly student mem-
bers, the heads of every important
organization on campiis.
With influential students from the
campus newspaper, the fraternity
groups, class presidents, honor society
presidents, the Undergraduate Coun-
cil is assured cooperation from every
group of students on campus.
