Club Presents
British Film
The International Film Club in
cooperation with Warner Broth•
ers will present the British film
"Great Expectations" at the State
Theatre, Friday, SAurday and
Monday.
According to Dr. George Szasz,
who as replacing Dr. Edward Ab
ramson as head of the club,
"Great Expectations" is a truly
good movie and one worth while
seeing. The film is a dramatiza
tion of a Charles Dickens' novel.
"Odd Man Out," the English
film starring James Mason, will
be brought to State College Oc
tober 8 and 9 by the club. The
characterizations and acting are
excellent, and James Mason needs
no introduction to American and
fences, said Dr. Szasz.
The International Film Club
was organized in the Spring of
1944. At that time the movies
were shown on campus. Lack of
finances caused it to become in
active until last semester whet
Warner Brothers offered to bring
the films to the movie houses it
State College.

THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 2, 1947-STATE COLLEGE, PENNA
Yanks Win 10-3
In Second Game
NEW YORK, Oct. 2—(AP)—
The New York Yankees hit with
bruising power and the Brooklyn
Dodgers fielded with numb fin
gers yesterday as the Yanks
bowled over the Brooks, 10 to 3,
in the second game of the World
Series.
A sellout crowd of 69,865 fans
at the Yankee Stadium saw the
New Yorkers go out in front for
baseball's blue ribbon, two vic
tories to none.
The 'series now will move to
Brooklyn for the third and
fourth games today and tomor
row and—perhaps--a fifth game
on Saturday.
The Yanks slugged merrily
away 'at the offerings of four
Dodger pitchers, who had added
difficulties in the form of feeble
Flatbush work in the field. The
Dodgers made two errors that
went into the box score—miscues
by Pete Reiser and Ed Stanky.
But the Brooks had several other
mishaps, including a bunt that
rolled past Jackie Robinson, a fly
ball that fell for a double as out
fielders Reiser and Hermanski and
shortstop Reese watched it, and
another ball hit to Robinson on
which nobody covered second
base to take a throw. In addition,
Pete Reiser, misjudged a fly ball
into a triple and pitchers Hank
Behrman and Rex Barney turned
loose wild pitches.
All the Yankees, except catcher
Yogi Berra, had a part in the 15-
hit carnival. Little Snuffy Stirn

'Love Penn State'
Says Typical
Soph Coed
An attractive smile, sparkling
blue eyes, light brown hair and
five feet, eight and one-half inches
of feminine pulchritude all add up
to the typical sophomore coed in
the person of Jean Murphy, who
hails from Pittsburgh.
Jean was dubbed "Typical Soph
Coed" during the Fun Night pro
ceedings at Recreation Hall last
Saturday night. She spent her
freshman year at Lock Haven
State Tea6ers College, but now
graces the main campus and lives
at the Davey House.
The "fledgling queen" as repre
sented by Miss Murphy is unmar
ried, likes the Corner Room when
she can find a booth, prefers skirts
two to three inches below the
knee and "loves Penn State."

Rally Moves
To Old Main
Penn State's football pep rally
goes on at 7:15 o'clock tomorrow
night on the front steps of Old
Main rather than at Lion Shrine,
Hat Societies Council said last
evening.
Old Main's steps were selected
as the location because of the
nearer proximity of the site to
dormitories and the downtown
section.
This first rally of the 1947 foot
ball season will be preceded by a
street parade led by the marching
Blue Band and cheerleaders. The
parade will leave Phi Sigma
Kappa on S. Allen street at 6:45
p.m. and proceed to Old Main by
the way of the Locust Lane area,
Atherton Hall and the Corner.
The procession will move past
the power plant to the Phi Gam
ma Delta house; thence to the
rally site.
"Meet the Team" will be the
theme of the student mass meet
ing and Coach Bob Higgins and
his varsity squad will be intro
duced by Tom Lannen, All-Col
lege president, the master of cer
emonies.
Hat Societies Council slated the
rally for 7:15 p.m. to enable the
attendance of the greatest num
ber of students, said Bob Mc-
Gregor, Parmi Nous president.
He said the rally will be com
pleted early enough to allow
further social activity Friday
night.
Group Studies
Sunday Movies
The issue of Sunday movies for
State College was discussed by a
citizens' committee composed of
representatives of 29 State Col
lege organizations at a meeting
held in the High School library
Tuesday night.
Although the group did not
enter into a discussion of the
relative merits or demerits of
commercial movies on Sunday, a
committee was appointed to pre
pare and issue statements to the
public explaining "exactly what
a 'yes' or `no' vote will mean."
Tuesday night's meeting was
the initial business session on the
movie question with the State
Council of Churches acting as
host to the representatives of the
organizations.
The citizens' committee was
formed "to clarify and call to the
attention of the public that a
vote will be taken on the ques
tion of Sunday movies at the
November election."
Present at the meeting was a
State College attorney who ad
vised the committee on the le
gality of wording which is sched
uled to appear on the ballot in
November. He said that the ques
tion will be stated exactly as re
quired by the state legislature.
lon-Tikit Personnel
Arrives on West Coast
The six men of the "Kon-Tiki"
expedition, who sailed from
Peru to the Polynesian Islands
on a pre-Incaic balsa raft during
the summer, have arrived in this

sistant professor of electrical en
gineering at the College, has been
informed.
During the expedition which
started on April 29 and terminat
ed August 13, Station W3YA
ALMA, with Crossley in charge,
