Successor to the Free Lance, Established 1887 VOL. 37—No. 31 LioM Set For Temple Game Tomorrow Housing Board Proposes Assistant Dean Of Men Room Inspection Would Be New Officer's Duty- The appointment of an assist ant dean of men under Dean A. R. Warnock to better coordinate hous ing, fraternity, and non-'fraternity problems was proposed to the ad= ministration by the Student Hous ing Board in a surprise move last night. Because the Housing Board con sidered that the physical and so cial development of the College has increased faculty and student relationships, it was suggested that the proposed assistant dean 'of men could relieve Dean Warnock of some of his administrative duties. The duties of the assistant dean, as outlined by the committee, would be to supervise the inspec tion of houses, cement fraternity and non-fraternity relations, _and concentrate on alleviating some of the non - fraternity organization problems. In cooperation with Dr. -Joseph P. fßitenour, director of the Col lege Health Service, the assistant dean would draw up an approved list of temporary or leased rooms and act as a one-man housing placement bureau. The Board believed that this plan would solve some of the prob lems of the , fraternity rushing per iod by the assistant dean holding a complete list of temporary rooms for prospective pledges. Members.- of _the Student Hous ing Board for this year, are John M. Byerly '4l, chairman, H. Ed ward Wagner '4l, Miriam M: Miller '4l, J. Louise Hyder '4l, Theodore Rice '4l, Jacob M. Le vine '42, Mildred M. Taylor '42, and Ross B.

Pundt, speaking before the International Relations Club last night on "Territorial Changes in Europe Since 1933," gave as the basis for the boundary expansions of Germany and Italy their need for economic expansion in the way of freer markets. "The territorial and political changes resulting from the treaties at the end of the World War gave little assurance that :peace would be permanent,". Dr. ilundt pointed Out.

In Austfia, Dr. Pundt explained, the National Socialists took advantage of the breach between the Catholic parties and the Socialist party, while in Czechoslovakia, the diff erence between the existing Czech national government and the hoped-for federation of Czechs, Slovaks, and other nationalities provided the breach by which the Nazis entered.

"How ever," Dr. Pundt said, "Russia is now largely governed by fear of Germany. Such was not quite the case earlier in the war when Rus sia expected to take advantage of the weakening of both sides." hT his opinion, the interdepend ence of Germany's manufacturing industries and South America's ag ricultural and raw material eco nomy would be effective l in Count erbalancing , any Pan - American Union. • Dr. Pundt assumed that "a single economic bloc; under 'Germany's -leadership,. might.be possible," but that political considerations would prove :a handicap. Petrella, Peters, Srnaltz Carry. Hopes For Win The first undefeated Penn State football team to invade Philadel phia since 1920, bolstered by the return of all its injured players, leaves here this morning for the crucial game with the rebounding Temple University aggregation at Temple Stadium at 2 p. m. tomor row. .;.•%.•;m1•1.1 Head Coach Bob Higgins select ed 31 gridders to make the trip for the battle which may 'spur the team on to greater heights or mar the season's perfect record. Vic torious in three starts the Nitttany Lions face their toughest opponent to date in the Owls who are fresh from a startling upset over pow erful Michigan State. With one of the best defensive teams in the country ready to stop Temple's offensive thrusts, the Blue and White will depend heav ily on a pair of fleet halfbacks and the passing arm of Bill Smaltz to chalk up the winning margin. Pepper Petrella and Chuck Peters have been the scourge of opposing teams for the past two years a a hot performance by either one may decide the ball -game. The line which started the Le high game last week will remain intact for tomorrow's test. Tom Vargo and Lloyd Parsons will be the ends; Frank Platt and Carl Stravinski, the tackles; Mori. and Garbinski, the guards; and Captain Leon Gajecki will anchor the forward wall from the center spot. Only two players are certain of starting in 'the backfield. Johnny Patrick will continue to call the signals and block from the quar terback post and Peters draws the left halfback assignment. Either Craig White or Len Krouse will get the nod for the right halfback job and the fullback spot remains a toss-up between Bill Smaltz, Ralph Ventresco and Earle Brown.

Jones, of the School of Physical Education and Ath letics, is attending the Secondary Education Conference at Harris burg, today. 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 111111111111111111111111111 CAMPUS CALENDAR liIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ME TODAY: Registered Democratic voters may sign up at Student Union for rides home to vote.
