COMPLETE CAMPUS COVERAGE Vol. 30 No. 10 Lions to FaCe Nluhlenburg as College Welcomes Visiting Dads Will Renew Relations With Allentown • Institution SLOAN WILL FILL 'KING' ,COLE'S PLACE AT TACKLE "Shorty" Mikelonis to Direct Tearu—Woolbert Out With .Shoulder Separation In order to concentrate-the cheer ing in the West stands, section 18 on the 50-yard line has been set aside as an upperclass cheering sec tion for the Muhlenberg"game Sat urday. Parents and,visitors will be asked to remain out of this section so that it may be occupied entirely by upperclassmen. Members of Blue Key, junior hat society, will be —in charge of reserving the section for students. . IV FRED W. • WRIGRT '35 Tackles are generally °consid ered the key men in any football line, but it looks as if the Lions will have to wait at least another week before both bulwarks of the forward wall will be able to take their positions on the same field at the same time. Last week it was Dick Wool bert, 200gpound regular, and this week it is "King" Cole, 139-pound veteran, who will be unable to start the second game of the sea son against Muhlenberg College on New Beaver field at 2:30. o'clock Saturday afternoon. 2 Regular-Tackles,lnjured Because botirOf the Lions' veterans will be unable. to start, Head .Coach Bob 'HAggjjla will depend un`, pave `Sloan,,' up from: the- freshman.,teani last season, to fill one.gap, while whd will start at the other berth is a moot question. .Woolbert's shpuldee separatiOn,, suffered in a 'pre-season practice game, has failed to heal as quickly as was expected,' and Cole's ankle injury, received in the Lebanon Valley game, will keep him on the side-lines for at least another week. On the basis of polished defensive work in the opening game,Buck Mc- Kee will start as Captain Tommy Slusser's running mate at end, while Lou Kriezman and Tony Bedoski, veteran guards, will flank Bob Weber, at center. Otherwise, the line-up for the Lions' opening of athletic rela tions on the gridiron with Muhlen berg will remain practically intact. Mileelonie Signals Al "Shorty" Mikelonis, whose field generalship 'played a major part in, routing the Plying Dutchmen from Lebanon Valley last Saturday, will quarterback the team from the open. ing whistle against the , Mules. It's a matter of conjecture whether "Bar rell" Morrison, who hacked Lebanon Valley's forward wall for consistent short gains,- or - " Red" O'Hora, who was a quarterback last week, will start at right balf, but Harry Sigel is def initely -Higgins' -choice for left -half and Leo Skemp for fullback. After a lapse of twelve years, the Lions - will- again play host to a Muh k-nberg Mule eleven. 'Back in 1920 the Mules were defeated, 27-7, while in 1914 the score was 22-0, with-the Lions again victorious. Hostiles Outweigh ,LionS. Once again the Lions with a weight handicap .to overcome as the Mules average 181 pounds to the•l7o for Higgins' henchmen. The hostiles' biggest weight .advantage lies in the, line,. where the Lion' for ward wall - will give - away eight pounds per man... 'lf you think Muhlenberg's deluge at, the hands - of Tordham last Satur day prefaces an easy victory you should take into consideration the fact that most of the regular Mules were . saved for the game. Saturday. Only. two of their regulars are incapacitat ed the present time 'as a result. - - Unless "Red" Weiner,..who does Muhlenberg's kicking and passing and considerable of the field direction, gets into the clear, the Lions shouldn't haVe much to worry about. And with the Lions' pony, backfield' skirting the -flanks of a . slow, lumbering hostile line, the men of 'Higgins' should roll up enough points to insure victory.. A. S. M..E..DFFICERS ELECTED.

SLASH IN STUDENT BODY DEPENDS ON BOND ISSUE President Hetzel's.Statement THE Pennsylvania State College needs your help. It is facing the most serious crisis in its history. The last legislature reduced the maintenance ap propriation to,the College by ten percent, and during the closing hours attached an amendment to the College appropriation bill which provided . that—the appropriation would be reduced thirty-three' and a third percent more if Amendment Number -8 to the Stato Constitution should not be approved by the voters at the election on November 7. • Such a reduction in the appropriations from the State: would automatically cancel other income, in cluding a large part of the Federal funds which, are conditioned upon State appropriations. The &fleet of such a loss of operating income would be little" short of devastating to the organization and service of 'the College. Resident teaching, the. State-wide - extension' service and - most productive research re lating .to agriculture and other major Pennsylvania industries would have to be seriously curtailed, and in some instances completely aban doned. Values would be destroyed out of all proportion to funds saved, • • Failure to approve Amendment Number 8 would also do serious dam age to the very vital and .necessary service now being. performed by the unemployment relief organizations, the one hundred and sixty-live State-aided hospitals, and fourteen other colleges and universities. The constructive ministry of these relief, educational; and .humane agencies is needed more now than ever before. •By aiding in securing a favorable vote on. Amendment Number 8 at the election to be held on November 7 you will be serving not Only The Pennsylvania State Col lege, but your State and nation.. The times and the circumstances call for active, intelligent, and unselfish public service. We earnestly ap peal for your active help.

PRICE FIVE CENTS Decreased Enrollment Will Follow Failure • Of Amendment HETZEL OPENS COLLEGE CAMPAIGN WITH APPEAL Curtailment of Experimental, - Research, Agricultural Work Forseen "Failure of Amendment Num ber 8 to pass in the November elections would result in the dropping of a thousand or more sttidents now in College, a com plete breakdown of industrial ex tension service, the reduction of agricultural extension service to an ineffectual and limping pro gram, the abatement of a major part of research now in progress, the dismissal of a large number of the College staff, and a costly deterioration of a physical plant." . Inaugurating the State-wide campaign to win the voters' ap proval of the $25,000,000 bond issue, President Ralph D. Hetzel, in a statement released at noon today, declared that values would be destroyed out of all proportion to the funds saved if the proposed amendment fails to pass and told of the affect it would have on the College. The text of his supplementary state ment follows: • Explains Amendment "On November 7, the citizens of te"nirg•Pirgiiiiirlirealrea'iiiisn make a .decision of vital and far= reaching importance to their interests in unemployment relief, the care of the sick and higher educational ser vices in the State. "There will appear on the ballot On Election Day a proposed amend ment to the State Constitution, listed as Amendment Number 8, authorizing the executive officers of the Common wealth to borrow "not exceeding 825,- 000,000 to defray the expenses of the State government for the biennium beginning June 1, 1933." Federal Funds Threatened "The purposes to which this loan would be. put are specifically covered in the appropriation acts of the last session of the Legislature, contingent -upon the approval of the amendment by the voters, in the following amounts: unemployment relief, $20,- 100,000; hospitals, $2,231,305; colleges and universities, $2,504,000; the re mainder of the loan being applicable to sinking fund, interest and cost of floating the bond issue. "The consequences of failure to ap prove Amendment Number 8 would he the collapse of the State unem ployment relief progeam including the 'kiss of Federal funds conditioned upon State appropriations, a 30 per cent curtailment of service to the State in 105 hospitals located in all sections of the Commonwealth and a I devastating 33 1-3 per cent slash (40 per cent over last biennium) in State aid to fourteen colleges and universi ties. 'fells of Alternative "if Amendment Number 8 fails to pass, the only alternative will be in creased or new State and local taxes. If the levying of new taxes appears possible and desirable, it is extremely doubtful if they could be levied and collected in time to avoid the serious interruption and certain destruction of the educational and humanitarian services concerned with this amend ment. "Amendment Number 8 authorizes the officers of the State to borrow not to exceed $25,000,000 if such funds are necessary. In the best of circum stances, the amendment will provide insurance against the disastrous in terruption of these services and in the absence of marked improvement in State finances, it will save them at a time when they are most seriously ,needed. "Vote and work to save these con structive humanitarian services to the people of our Commonwealth." Edward K. Hibshman, alumni sec retary, and Raymond S. Smith, Col lege comptroller, have been appointed by Dr. Hetzel as joint heads of the committee in charge of the College's campaign. A plan of co-operation with Temple University, University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Pittsburgh, whose budgets will also be affected by the proposed cut, has been effected by the committee.
