TOE SUMMER COLLEGIAN—STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Sugar Bowl Bid
Penn State has again been confronted with racial
discrimination in Intercollegiate athletics, and has
again made an unequivocal decision to compete
only under circumstances which will permit the
playing of any or all members of its athletic teams.
The decision reached by the Athletic Advi
sory Board to decllna tha Sugar Bowl invita
tion tendered the Lion boxing toam is espe
cially commendable since there are no Negro
boxen on the squad at present.
When the football game with the University of
Miami Was cancelled last November, Penn State
had two Negro players on the squad.
The present decision on the Sugar Bowl invita
tion indicates, however, that the College Will not
tolerate any form of discrimination or restrictions
of participants in its athletic program.
Boxing captain Jackie Tighe, who is also a mem
ber of the Athletic Board, Is to be especially com
mended for his unselfish attitude. Although he
wanted very much to participate in the tourna
ment, he voted to decline the invitation after hear
ing that the Sugar Bowl committee “understood
that no Negroes will be members of the State Col
lege team.
Tighe. as well aa tha other members of the
beard, felt that tha presence of Negroes on tha
■quad should have no bearing on tha decision.
The main point was that the invitation at
tempted to place restrictions on who could be
members of the Lion boxing squad.
Thera is also the possibility that Negro boxers
who might come to the campus in September would
be discouraged from trying out for the squad.
Aa one Collegian reader said in a letter to the
editor at the time of the Miami controversy, “there
is no.room for discrimination on any American
sporting Held.”
Editors Mailcall
Women, Oeese, and Skirts
TO THE EDITOR: I read with interest your
article on the lengthening of women’s skirts. May
I add my voice to the storm of protest.
Why don’t the girls awaken to the fact that the
whole thing is but a plan of the clothing manufac
turers to sell new dresses. For a long time women’s
dress designers have had to bat their brains out to
Sink up some new style to trap our womanhood
to buying more dresses than they need.
Now, obviously, they have come to the end of
their ingenuity for they have resorted to lengthen
ing the skirt. This makes it impossible for a girl to
alter her present dresses and she must purchase an
entire new wardrobe.
Woman wa Ilka jhh whan ii eomaa to
fashion. U on* tries'something new. they all
must try it rogardloss of how ridiculous U may
Nine out of ten men would rather see their
women in a simple but refreshing frock instead of
these outlandish creations that dress designers,
spurred on by the manufacturers, dream up to sell
more dresses.
Men, let's stem the hem I —Jack Mean?
