PAGE TWO Lest We Forget At the begining of each school year there is a tendency on the part of some campus leaders to formulate new plans of endeavor for their respec tive organizations. For the most part, these in. novations are a product of summer planning. Such is not the case with All-College Cabinet. It was at the time of the spring elections that Cabinet's plan of action was presented to the student body for approval. This preview of legis• lative action came in the form of party platforms and they were printed in this paper as an aid to the voter. When the election ballots were tabulated it was found that the State Party candidates and platform received approval from the largest number of student voters. A short time later the winning candidates took offices it remains for . them to carry out the planks of the platform. It may be, however, that a few members of Cabinet spent some of their vacation time ponder ing over the problems of student government. It is also very possible that they returned enlightened about a controversial issue. What ever progress is made with regards to issues not contained in the platform will be chalked up as added service to the student body and the College. However, the criterion of successful student officers depends upon their ability to carry out the promises they made during the spring campaign. For the benefit of any forgetful politicians or interested voters we are reprinting the State Party platform.—L.G.F. State Party 1. Establish a dating code and attempt to secure recreational facilities for independent men's houses and dorms. 2. Establish a co-operative type store in a convenient location on the campus for the benefit of all students. 3. Work for better Student-Faculty relations especially through a representative of the Council of Administration and the Senate. 4. Support the School Student Councils. 5. Promote the aims and programs of the Na tional Student Council convention held in Chicago. 6. Foster and support a state-wide convention of College Student Government Associations. 7. Religious and racial discrimination have no place in our way of life and the State Party will do everything possible to eliminate these evils in State College. The above are listed as solutions to some of the uroblems of today that we feel we can help to 'orrect. As other important issues arise, the same open and direct procedure will be followed. The state Party will always be ready to work for those lungs which will benefit the student body, such securing a vote on All-College Cabinet for Pollock Circle and Windcrest, and a sidewalk along Shortlidge Road. Also in line with this thought we Aill keep the issue of a Student Union alive and Je f ore the proper authorities. Editorials and features in The Daily Col legian reflect the opinions of the writer.

TEE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Oranges & Rotarians One Man's Meat By Ben French When Phineas T. Glockenspiel, feline authority on various and sundry facts, reported to us this week he was bubbling over with anecdotes. One of the stories was about the Washington State-Lion football game at Hershey. It seems, according to Glockenspiel, that one of the members of the Rotary Club of Harrisburg, hosts for the affair, asked Washington State Coach Phil Sorboe if his team would like anything between the halves of the game. "Sure," said Sorboe, "the boys would like some orange juice to drink." "Okay," said the obliging Rotarian, "we'll fix you up." So off he went to a Harrisburg caterer and ordered three gallons of orange juice. "These boys are from the West Coast so you better make sure it's California orange juice," the Rotarian laughed as he placed the order. The caterer took him at his word and started a search for genuine California orange juice. The catch was that California orange juice is out of season at this time and none was to be had in Pennsylvania's capital city. The search continued as the energetic caterer started calling all over the East for juice from California oranges. Finaly, the evasive fruit was found in Philadelphia and rushed to Harrisburg. The Rotarian was presented with a bill in advance of $5O for the three gallons of juice. So when the Cougars took the field for the second half of the game they were full of $5O genuine California orange juice and in the stands was one very red faced Rotarian. For the benefit of those who are newcomers to the campus, Philip A. Mark is not only un official poet laureate of the Collegian but also serves as Captain of the Campus Patrol. Sophomores Lament I came down to Old Penn State My heart was light and gay— I met some rather friendly guys And decided I should stay. I got a room at Nittany Dorms At least my letter said— At first I couldn't find the place Let alone my feather bed. At last I got a tiny cot— In the lobby of a dorm— With blankets few and mighty thin My feet were not so warm. I learned to sing those college yells— And yell those college songs— I rise at six most every morn Just as Old Main Clock dongs The chow we get is not so bad— And we get it right on time .. . But some of the things we have to do Must surely be a crime. I went to Rec Hall to register— They chased me like a dog ... I stood in line about a day, As thicker grew the fog. Advisors, checkers, instructors - - gosh! I stood, and sat, and coaxed and swore - - I wrote, erased, and wrote again— Ye Gods did I get sore. A. card went here I started wrong— I missed the Armory— I found I had to start again— So went out on a spree. I met a guy at a local bar— His hair was long turned gray, He had a tearful story sad— And this I heard him say— I am a Penn State Student— Came here in forty-five. My Buddies are in Danville— The one's that are still alive. That registration got 'em— It slowly drove 'em nuts— But by gosh I'm still around But it really took the guts. Each year it grows more painful To register you know— So while you're still so young my boy— Tis better you should blow. I was once a tough Marine I've sailed the Seven Seas— But compared to "Hoffman's Nightmare" That life was just a breeze. I reeled away from my sad-eyed friend— I climbed into my car— And then a Campus Cop exclaimed— Now who do you think you are? You have to have a permit To drive your car to class. So be careful where you park— And please keep off the grass. From eight to five just keep your car— From off the Campus fair— After that you're free to drive— Why almost anywhere. Well here I am at Old Penn State— I cannot find my class— I am not able to get on the ball I guess I'll have to pass. But after all I'm still well set— Those profs I'll get their goats— Why I'll never crack a book— I still have Granddads' notes. Yes, at last I've made the grade— Just three short years to go— And what will I be doing then? Well now I hardly know. I'll not be able to do much work— The strain here is far to great— I guess I'll get an instructor's job— And stay at Old Penn State. .
