Vishinsky Attacks Again
LAKE SUCCESS—The United
States and Britain were the chief
targets of a Vishinsky tongue
lashing yesterday. He accused the
United States of gaining full
control of the Greek government
and transforming Greece into a
militar y base of the United
States. Vishinsky rejected the
American resolution calling for
a Balkans commission. And he
demanded the immediate with
drawal* from Greece of foreign
troops and—as he put it—"all
kinds of military and civil in
structors and the so-called ex
perts."
Food Drive Supported
WASHINGTON—The White
House has received many pledges
of support for its new self-denial
drive to save, food. And Presi
dent Truman's food committee
has mapped out new moves in
the campaign to help feed Eu
rope. Meantime, the committee
modified its call for eggless and
poultryless Thursdays by except
ing Thanksgiving, Christmas and
New Year's, all of which fall on
Thursdays. Its asks, however,
that the nation forego these foods
on the Mondays preceding the
holidays.
Gandhi Lauds Truman
INDlA—lndian Leader Mohan
das K. Gandhi says he wishes to
congratulate President Truman
for advising Americans to eat
less bread to help feed hungry
Europe. Addressing a prayer
meeting, Gandhi also said he
wanted Indians to follow Mr.
Truman's philanthropic gesture
and deny themselves a few meals
a week to save their own coun
trymen from starving.

Yanks Win Series
In Final Game 5-2
Yankee Head MacPhail
Reveals Retiremeni
NEW YORK The New York
Yankees won their eleventh
World Series in 15 attempts yes
terday with a methodical, busi
nesslike 5-2 victory over Brook
lyn in the seventh and deciding
game. At the same time they lost
the services of their president,
Larry MacPhail.
Immediately after die game
ended amid the laughing and
shouting and general fun making
that follows a Worlds Series
championship, a weeping Mac-
Phail announced his retirement
from baseball because of "poor
health."
Before the series started, they
said it would narrow down to a
duel between relief pitchers, Joe
Page for the Yanks and Hugh
Casey for the Dodgers. It did,
right to the end.
Yesterday it was Page who
was hot so the Yankees won the
game and the series. The sturdy
Yankee southpaw lived up to his
gilt-edged reputation for the first
time in the series as he - shut the
Dodgers out on one measly single
in the last five innings.
It atoned for Page's dismal per
formance Sunday when he was
belted freely by the Dodgers,
and it also gave him the last
laugh over his rival, Casey. Big
Hugh had been doing the laugh
ing until today as he won both
third and fourth games at
Brooklyn.
Names of the successful candi
dates for the two Players pro
ductions, "Out of the Frying
Pan" and "'Sound of Hunting,"
were released today by Robert D.

Hundreds Pay Final Respects I,:
To 'Prexy' in Schwab Services .
Hundreds of friends of Ralph Dorn Hetzel said their last goodbye
to the late president of the College at the simple public services in
Schwab Auditorium yesterday morning.
Represented in the group attending the services were members
of the faculty and administrative staffs, students, businessmen.
— itownspeople, and men from other
Icolleges who had worked with
and respected Dr. Hetzel.
Dr. John Henry Frizzell, chap
lain emeritus of the College, said
of the late president, "He was an
humble man, a shy man, and from
the exigencies of his offices, a
l lonely man."
"But," added the chaplain, "he
had a mission which he saw
sharply and clearly, and. to the
carrying out of that mission, he
gave himself with singleness of
purpose."
Student Guard of Honor
Outside Schwab Auditorium
thousands of students paid last
respects in their own way. As an
impromptu guard of honor, they
lined the path of the funeral pro
cession for half a mile, and with
bowed heads, offered their final
farewell to their president. Inter
ment was made at Centre County
Memorial Park.
Of Dr. Hettel's long and distin
guished career as a college ad
ministrator, Chaplain F zzell
said: "All his life's service . .
was given to land-grant colleges,
in the function and the mission of
which he believed with an inten
sity amounting to a passion. What
he has accomplished in bringing
about a recognition of the land
grant college in the Eastern states
is, in itself, a splendid story."
'Careful, Cautious'
In describing the late presi
dent's personal qualities, Dr. Friz
zell said: ". . . he would not be
stampeded, and that quality in
him, of slow, careful and cautious
thinking for the future, he held to
in all the vast planning which he
carried on till the very moment he
left us. Time and again we have
been compelled to acknowledge
that in the long run, his was tne
i wiser course. He believed in the
essential and fundamental right
ness of people . . . and he would
not be budged from that belief."
At the services representatives
of all groups with which President
Hetzel worked- sat in a group in
cluding the president of the Bor
ough Council, the town burgess,
the president and the secretary of
the Commerce Club, members of
the Board of Trustees, students of
All-College Cabinet, members of
the Council of Administration.
the president's personal staff, and
representatives of the College's
35,000 alumni.
Sons Are Pallbearers
The family of the late president
sat in an ante-room of the Audi
torium during the services. The
unopened coffin of the president
reposed on the stage of the audi
torium. Pallbearers were his sons,
Ralph Jr., Roger, Philip, and his
sons-in-law, B. K. Johnstone and
J. A. Williams. Because of the ill
ness of his wife, the president's
brother, H. C. Hetzel of Sanford,
Fla., was unable to attend.
Ushers were members of the

at the College.
