PAGE TWO The Gift Question Just what The Daily Collegian's policy will be toward the Senior Class gift is a question that has been raised by exponents of the various plans. The Collegian has been placed in a position which is somewhat unique this year in that one of the suggested projects is the construction of a press which would take care of all the printing needs of the students and publish their daily newspaper. Naturally, Collegian is especially interested in this project. It must be emphasized, however, that Collegian in past years has almost always taken a stand in its editorials on the Senior Class gift question. This is in line with Collegian's policy of taking stands on issues that vitally affect the stu dent body. Through arrangements made with the gift committee reports on each proposed gift will be published. Reports will be prepared and edited by members of the committee. Fair and equal coverage will be accorded each proposal. No amount of stumping and politicing by members of pressure groups advocating the various gifts will influence Collegian coverage. As always, Letters to the Editor column will be open to all students wishing to express their opinions. Collegian editorial policy and support, however, will be strongly in favor of a student owned and operated press. Without Fences "Fellowship without Fences" flourishes only when every person irrespective of color or faith is regarded as an indi vidual rather than as a member of a special cult. These fences, raised by childhood training and unfamiliar ity, are being torn down at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, by the Lincoln Society, a fraternal group open to the entire college community, regardless of race, color, or creed. "Fellowship Without Fences" is its motto. With a membership that has tripled since its activation last year, the society conducts a daily luncheon hour in a university lounge. Weekly meetings and outings serve to dispel myths and sweeping generalizations about "tagged" Individuals. Plays on the harmful effect of segregation are enacted n the local schools. Posters are circulated and a radio pro :ram sponsored by the Brown University association. The keynote idea is to discard "labels" by education and y meeting an individual face to face. Can such a society serve a useful function on campus? All efforts at combating prejudice and discrimination have oen abdicated by 44 separate groups to the single organiza on, CORE. Another society would duplicate or divide ORE's scope. But CORE, laudably promoting the non-discriminatory arbershop, meets monthly to advance its program and dis ,_uss business. A program of informal get-togethers has been overlooked. Ed Walacavage, Pollock Circle representative, envisions a policy of surveys, speakers, posters, and broadcasts but it has been shelved for the more immediate haircut issue. A CORE committee should immediately inaugurate a long-range plan of education and occasional discussion per iods or coffee hours to supplement the intensive barbershop campaign. Education is a slow process, but individual outlooks which determine the outcome of the problem can be enlightened with facts, figures, and direct associations. Time is needed to cast out prejudicial attitudes and secret misapprehensions But time must not be allowed to run out. —Bennett Lear Fairorth • Congratulations are in order to the State College Rotary Club which has adopted a plan whereby students are invited to speak J very week concerning student affairs.

TO THE EDITOR—Once again the radical element in the dormi tory is inciting a boycott against the dining commons. Objects of the boycott are Miss Fall's resig nation, better food. and more stu dent help. It is frightening to con sider that some of the future citi zens attempt to solve each prob lem such as this with such a com pletely negative approach. There have been no suggestions made as to who should replace Miss Fall. how to improve the flood. or how many students should be employed economically. The students should first make an in telligent survey of the situation. then propose some constructive change. which is the American method. Dear Boss: Had a terrible time trying to get hold of you this week so I decided to leave this note. Perhaps, you can get enough out of it to write a column. will create quite a stink. Try this one. Here is proof that a member of the Board of Trustees tried to bribe the Governor. Yesterday the AP reported that "A gold phono graph of the new song 'Pennsvl-1 venial will be presented to Gov. James H. Duff by bandleader Fred Waring. Waring said the gift is in appreciaition of his appoint ment by the governor as a trus tee of the Pennsylvana State Col lege." Say. the results of the Wiscon sin primaries nut a crimp in Mac- Arthur's ambitions to be presi dent. didn't it? Even Willie Hearat's series of endorsements by silent picture stars and car toons of the general glaring at Stalin didn't seem to have any leffect. Be careful of how yoU say it though because the printer who Isets the column Is the only Mac- Arthur men I've met in State College. ”wimei Where wer e you brought up!—Wipe your feet— just look at the mud you're tracking inl" Editor's Mail call Letters to The Editor's Mail Call should be limited to 150 wJrds so that all contributors may be given space.

TO THE EDITOR—In reference to your editorial "Political Apa thy." I'd like to say this. Most of our Presidential candidates have ex/Dressed their viewpoints on the various crises through the world today. If no new crises arise then we could be quite certain that - our oartioular candidate—if we have committed ourselves to one— won't change his mind. But what if a new crisis arises? Are we sure that his viewpoint on this matter will be like ours? If it isn't should we switch to an other candidate or blindly follow our original choice for whom we have clamored all the while? Therefore why should we com mit ourselv4 months ahead of election day? Wouldn't it be more intelligent on our part to discuss and to observe all the candidates and their reactions for the follow ing months and then to choose the candidate who we sincerely be lieve is the ablest in running our United States? Let's not be like the Wallace men. Let's not follow blindly! Sincerely. —Bob Lutz. Ray Kobylarski. trying to better their food but 4-re still running into a blank wall. However. now they at least get the privilege of tossing their com plaints directly at Miss Fall and Danny DeMarino in a weekly meeting. The main complaint this week centered around the "cof fee" served at the Circle—it made me a confirmed tea drinker! Your edit last month on the Hill politicians caused the State Party much trouble, so it's only Ifair to report that Bob Keller im mediately set about to clear up the situation. Now State is Just representative of both fraternity and independent students as the Lion Party.
