With the Editor
- ‘ S Do you want to know what T think the
(football team ought to do?’', Hush Odza said .as
tie joined me the oilier evening.
Od’za’s idea, surprising enough, had nothing' to
«Jl> 'with the athletic-set-up at State. 'He was just
going the long wav about in telling us o! a me
aniorial he had In mind.
Whether his suggestion is followed depends
in ithe main on 'the football team ‘plus cooperation
from the Athletic Association and Casey Jones,
Pittsburgh alumnus.
“What could Ibe more fitting,” says Odza, “than
•to have 'the team take the initiative in honoring
Jack Hulme, greatly loved Penn Stale athletic
trainer wiho died on October 23?”
. • Anyone erver connected with the vast athletic
'program at the College knew 'Hulme who was
rated one of the best men in the nation in his
ifield.
Perhaps 'the football team could do something
ito honor Hulune by changing the the name of the
athletic .house from Greys;tone 'Manor to T-taliine
SVFahorov IHulme Houlse.
It sounds like a good idea, maybe the football
taro might toe interested.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEOE, PENNSYLVANIA
Palestinian Report
(Today's report comes from Arthur H. Jaffe, a
former Penn Stater, class of 1942. During the war
he served as an intelligence officer in th e ETO.
Earlier this spring, Mr. Jaffe sailed to Palestine io
survey conditions there and to study Hebrew Lit
erature at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
The following reports are excerpts, from Jaffe's
letters to his brother here at th e College.)
You have asked me about JewiSh-Brilish social
relations—'Something that" today 'is nearly Non
existent. No respectable Jewish girl will date a
British soldier or officer. Between officials and
professional men, relations ate now on a formal,
official footing. Furtherfnofc, the British Army is
propagandizing its troops against the Jews; shut
ting dorwn the Jewish war-born “hospitality chibs,”
thereby creating a further gap, and then frequently
transferring troops as soon as they begin to like
the Jews. During the war, relations wer e excel
lent with the Yishuv alrd Kibbutzim extending
open aims. But the troop's that saw action are no,
longer - there.
The behavior of the troops during th e searches
has hot always been honorable. One of th e reasons
for this is the extreme youttofiuilness, immaturity,
and low level of education of many of the troops.
Then there is the psychological point also. These
(troops now in Palestine have had littl e of the
glories and excitements of battle. Like most sol
diers they want to feel themselves heroes. Their
only chance to be the conquering heroes is during
the searches of th e settlements. So they destroy—
all heroes destroy. They beat up people—heroes
are physically stronger. And while their officers
may not issue orders to do these things—on the
other hand, they don’t issue orders not to do such
things. But the Jews, I think, are ,ready and' eager
to forgive—if the British once again will act ac
cording to the tradition that once madie them the
pioneers of democracy. - . .
Students vs. Faculty
Prior to the war an organization existed on cam
pus whose dirty it was to maintain . coordination
betvteen students and members of the College
Staff. This grotip Was known as the StudehtJFac
■ulty Relations Committee and tiiet once each week
to straighten out misunderstandings among under
graduates and thei r instructors. As many "other
organizations became ddfuhot during the recent
conflict, so did this committee, but once again
there seems to toe a need for just such a group as
this.
Each day we hear of students and faculty mem
bers finding points of disagreement with each
olllher. A Short while ago. we. heard ,ol a case In
tvhioh a Student was forced to leave campus to
have some deintal work done. It was not possible
fo r this student to have his teeth fixed her e be
cause all the dentists in town wer e completely
filled with appointments, so that the student had
to return home for the few d'ays necessary for the
completion of t'he work.
This student was properly excused by the dean’s
office, but upon returning to class his instructor
would not allow him the privilege of niiaking up
the work he had neCdysitatingly missed. This
could, very easily have been, straightened out were
there a mediating committee through which in
strulctors and' students could air their vlaried dif
ficulties. ' •
Within the near future ther e will b e an attempt
miade to reorganize the Student-Faculty Relations
Committee so that all miay be benefitted. We hope
that the committee will get the full support of both
the faculty and the student body.

A Lean
and
Hungry Look . . .
By ANNE HAY
Dear Brutus,
In the time when cals and mice
were still friends, there was an
empire called “Inaccessibul"
which, strangely enough, was
governed by three cats. All the
other inhabitants of this land
were gentle mice who worked
har'd ancl loved' their neighbors.
Because this empire was such a
happy place, immigrants from
many Countries came to settle
down arid live inperice among,the
good citizens of “Inaccessibul.”
. For years all was light and hap
piness, but one day, something
happened which changed the en
tire future of this glorious land.
The Governor Cats found out that
a few of the riew inhabitants were
vinegar-drinkers. In. their , own
land, they had been free to us'e it
moderately arid here in this free
country- it would seem to be the
natural thing. No one has ever
known why the Governor 'Cats
were so opposed to vinegar, but
they immediately passed laws
against it. Big signs were posted
which read, “Vinegar Absolutely
Forbidden”, or “Vinegar Barrel
This Way, Keep Out!”
Now all the mice in Inacces
sibul could read and the more
they saw and heard about this
mysterious stuff, the more curi
ous they became. Soon every lit
tle mouse in Inaccessibul was
vinegar -■conscious. Secret expedi
tions were made to the vinegar
barrel and in shite of ail the new
laws the good citizens of Inacces
sibul began to drink when ever
they got the chance. Where as be
fore, only a few mice drank to
jany extent, now everyone wanted
to taste’ this wonderful stuff that
the Governor Cats were so: en
raged about.
Finally the Gbvernor' Gats real
ized that some changes were
.needed. So the law was changed
to read, “frowned upon” in one
place, and mixed drinking in an
other line.
But it was too late. The tragic
: end of this- one great empire came
swiftly. All the cbeautiful houses
fell in ruins and soon everyone
was dead or dying from vinegar
poisoning. A plea was made for
new immigrants from other coun
tries but the debauchirient of In
aocessibul was common knowl
edge among other nations and no
one would come.- In a desperate
effort to correct their mistake, the
Governor Cats placed a vinegar
barrel in a new gathering place
