Parties Present Programs
The Lion party has adopted a five-point pro
gram of work for the year. Issues are listed in
numerical sequence without reference to chrono
logical importance.
I—Ticket Distribution
Current and past policies of ticket distribution
for student events are not in keeping with the
significance now attached to these events. The
growing student body and the new prominence
of the College in intercollegiate activities makes
mandatory a more acceptable and equitable policy.
This can be accomplished by a study of various
systems and a poll of students to find the best
system, results to be submitted to. proper authori
ties for consideration and adoption.
2—Student Advisory System
The present system is totally inadequate. The
Lion party proposes a committee composed of fac
ulty members and students of the various schools,
to study methods that will give more attention to
advising students as individuals and not as mere
matriculation numbers, and to act to install the
better method.
3—Support of Existing Committees
The following established programs are of para
mount importance and can be carried to their
objectives by the present committees, with the
support that will insure the realization of their
aims:
AIM and AIW, Student Union committee, Na
tional Student Association, field house committee,
Co-op committee, and Committee on Racial
Equality.
4—System of Rating Professors
Definite measures must be enacted to rate pro
fessors, but lacking information, the party recom
mends a coordinating committee of the school
councils to study the problem.
s—Stronger Student Government
In support of the above and future issues, the
party advocates a student government that has
the strength, through student support, to be heard
and acknowledged on all problems of student wel
fare. Also desired is a better informed student
body, to be brought about by party affiliation,
committee activity, and organized discussion.
Get Out and Vote!
Every member of the sophomore class will
have the opportunity, next Tuesday, to partici
pate in the election of his class representatives.
Voting requires but a few minutes, but the
consequences will be felt for the rest of the
year; possibly even for the remainder of the
sophomores' College life.
Unfortunately all students have not had the
opportunity to observe the capabilities of all
the candidates. Therefore, the prudent voter
will seek opinions from friends who attended
the same undergraduate center as each of the
nominees.
Sophomores are especially fortunate in being
granted, for the first time in many years at
Penn State, more freedom of choice. No longer
will they be forced to vote for a president and
vice-president of the same clique.
That brings us to the matter of party voting,
and our advice is simple—vote for individuals,
not party labels. No matter how pretty a plat
form looks on paper, it still takes the right per
sons to transform platitudes into acts.
One of the inspiring aspects of Penn State
student government, is the relative unim
portance, in general, of the party tag when the
election is over. Winners and losers alike com
monly work together for the betterment of the
College.
Collegian will not tell you how to vote, except
to study and compare the candidates, and then
mark your ballot for competence and a sense of
responsibility.
You can hardly expect student government.
the sophomore officers in particular, to repre
sent you, unless you fulfill the duty of voting.
Vote for whomever you choose, but . .. be sure
to vote.

• Some wise bird once said: "All that is fun for
young people is either illegal, immoral or
fattening."
• Since the front car doors have been changed to
hinge in front of the door, it is estimated that
30,000 miles less of nylons have been seen.
• Penn State students are fortunate in having a
•oinparatively plain, old-fashion lighting system.
Several schools are known to employ medium
sized searchlights which the student bodies have
rather uncheerfully termed "purity lights."
