When the referee's decision was an

Although Bob Donato showed some
aggressiveness in the second and
third rounds, it was not enough' to
counteract the sharp lefts which Al
Duke, Orange 125-pounder, was
throwing in the slow-moving feather
weight bout. Frankie - Goodman had

touted Johnny Mustrella. In the mid
dle of the second, Mastrella opened
up.with.deadly lefts and rights and
Dick slipped . to the floor but quickly
came up. 'Another hard left spun
Flenniken into the ropes and he slid
between the strands out of the ring.
Undaunted, he refused to . take the
count and rushed back at his oppon
ent as the bell sounded.
Lou Ritzie took time to survey Ord
Fink, his' Syracuse opponent in the

the fight all the ways. .In spite of
his injured right, Lou hit 'hard and

manner fair to all students, over sev
enty students from about thirty col

convention of the Pennsylvania Asso .
ciation of College Students.
In an effort to obtain legislative
support for absentee voting, those at

petitions and obtain the signatures of
all students over twenty-one. These
will
. then be sent to the State Legis'
lature with the request that provisior
be made for students to vote by proxy
in their home districts.
In discussing athletic subsidization
the group decided that if any subsidi
zation be carred on it should be close
ly restricted by the following points:
(1) All players on the squad should
receive equal consideration. (2) De
ferred scholarship's given to athletes
should be repaid by those obtaining
them. (3) Certain scholastic Stand
ards should be set up for any athlete:
whose tuition is deferred. (4) Other
aid to athletes should take the same
form as that offered to the entire stu

of some sort. .

.ontrary, perhaps, to po'pular opinion
—are anxious to worll: She closed
nth an appeal - that students consider
hese, problems and take- an active in- I
:wrest in them.
Charles Nevin, of the National Stu
lent Federation of America, speaking
it the banquet at theMittany Lion
:nn Saturday night, spunded a call
o young people to solve,the problems
;hick are threatening them.
The two foremost problems which
oust be faced and solved are War
:nil Unemployment, the. sneaker said.
He emphasized the - nelessity of re
maining free of foreign entangle
ments, but showed how certain ele
ments in America have proved by the
recent huge munitions appropriations
that they have no intention of keep
ing the country out of War.
Although emphasizing the import
ance of youth's participation in pres
ent affairs, the "speaker cautioned'
against the audience forming groups
similar to those In EurOe and Asia.
'These are not youth movements but
.are./movements--exploithY-,:groups'
dominated by old and 'evil ideas."
The speaker w - arned the group not
accept the out-worn solutions of
early America 'or those-of foreign
groups. "Only through a democracy
'2an we succeed," he concluded. "I
am convinced -that there is an Amer
can way to• solve our difficulties."
floh Says China Needs
Athletic Instructors
Plans for the deVelopmeM of ath
letici at the universities and among
:he people of China lvere outlined by
2rolessor Hoh, of the department of
dmmistry at Lingnan University,
.anton, Chins, in a discussion .recent
ly with Dr. Elwood C. Davis, of the
School of, Physical Education and
Athletics.
Right now, Professor lioh explain
ed, the children and young men of
china are interested intensely in most
form of athletics, particularly in
basketball, soccer, volley ball and ten
nis. However, there are practically
no men in all the land that are capable
of teaching the finer points or even
the fundamentals of the sports.
Two methods of remedying the sit
uation were outlined. At Lingnan
University—and this prevails through
out China—there is no athletic direc
tor. Professor Hoh's first idea is to
send two of his pupils here to do
graduate work in Penn State's School
of Physical Education and Athletics.
The other concerns the present-Olym
pie games. Instead of spending mon
ey to send a full team to the games,
the Chinese officials are entering few
competitors, and with the remainder
of the funds arc sending a delegation
of fifty whose sole duty will be to
observe the other nations.

ness of the solar system nor the min
uteness of atoms and microbes, ex
plained Dr. Clinehy.
The universe is more stunning when
we consider that nothing h a ppens by
chance; the eclipse of the sun and
moon can be foretold to the exact
minute by the regular courses of the
planets, and atoms are always bro
ken up into the same combinations,
Dr. Clinehy pointed out. Front this
comes the realization that somewhere
there is a Purpose and a plan, he
said.
"The system of time in the uni
verec•seetns to presuppose u man, and
all the laws of the universe are work
ing for his consideration. The heavens
declare the glory of God," concluded
Dr. CI lucky.
