Meal time Should he a happy time, a time to enjoy the tattractive and delicious food always (pleasantly served in Ath*Hall . . . a time for good talk, friend. ly jokes, relaxation. A system designed to militariz e meal time and save seconds has resulted in acute enibar rassment for the head waiters, annoyante and rebellion for th e coeds. The 512 coeds object and will continue to do so. If coeds are required to wear skirts instead Gf jeans, to behave gracefully, why let imeal time .de generate into mass , feeding. One can get that in an automat. lisbect because of the need of . further study i n the field of human relation ; due to increasing problems in minority group relaticnehips.

In the face of Mr. Lilienthal's exceptional qualifications, his TVA record, his co-author ship of the State Department report that served as a basis for the international atomic control plan, from what does the opposition stem?

Letters • Since When TO THE FJDITOR: Since When are the private fairs of a student considered to be legitimate news to be read by the students of Penn State? Last Thursday, in an ,artiele titled "Or They'll Db It Every Time," Lawrence Foster, news editor of the Collegian, wrote a trite and derogatory Qolumn expressing his views on the marriage of the former Miss Sheila AdamS. In this column Mr. Foster vdo listed the sensibilities of the reader in several ways. The article Wlas hICt newt s but rather Mr. Fositer's malicious commentary. 1t would seem that Mr. Fes ter leek this means to satisfy some grudge. This matior was no business of Mr. Foster's and certain ly tint the concern of the StUdent body., Finally, the antictre was in very poor taste and both Mr. Foster• and the managing editor should have known that it would be regarded with dis taste.
