mythology and join his fellow
tradesmen at the Forestry Ball

area around Ball time in pre
vious years were lacking this
time because of objections from
College officials.

man. Music will be furnished by

Prize Winner Fears
Radio Will Wear
Out Too Soon
"I'm afraid I'll wear it out too
soon," commented Richard Jung,
Pi Kappa Phi, when asked about
the RCA portable radio he won
from Chimes as the holder of the
winning ticket in a recent con
test.
He had bought chances on the
streamlined "Globe Trotter" from
his roommate's girl-friend, Mar
ion Martin, a member of Chimes,
"more or less as a gag."
The much surprised winner, a
junior in EE was very dubious
when informed by a fraternity
brother of his winning, but was
later notified by Frances Eshl.-
man, president of the group.
Noted Speaker
Discusses Atoms
Dr. Paul C. Aebersold, chair
man of the isotope division of the
Atomic Energy Commission, will
speak on "Isotopes as Tracers in
Science" in 121 Sparks at 7:30
p.m. Monday. The lecture is
sponsored by Sigma Xi.
The lecture will be a general
survey of the use of isotopic
tracers, popularly known as
tagged atoms. This technique
has proved to be a very effective
means of attacking many funda
mental problem s in pure and ap
plied science, ranging from mea
surement of very thin films and
studies of mechanical friction to
investigations in catalytic action,
photosynthesis, and animal meta
bolism.
Dr. Aebersold received his Ph.
D. degree from the University of
California in 1938 and was asso
ciated with the radiation labora
tory there for several years be
fore joining the staff of the Atom
ic Energy Commission. His work
in nuclear physics and 1:40-phy
sics includes research on neutron
radiation, biological effects of
radiation, and radiation therapy
of cancer.

Panel Studies
World Rule
Five steps necessary in order
to establish world cooperation
were listed by a College student
panel at a meeting of the Unit
ed World Federalists in State
College Thursday night.
Dr. Brice Harris, head of the
department of English litera
ture at the College, served as
moderator for the panel which
included George Brehman,
Thomas A. Hopkins, C9rbin S.
Kidder and Harold Brown.
In defense of world govern
ment, Mr. Brehman stated five
pre-requisites:
One that would have power to
prohibit by force wars between
nations; control of atomic war
fare; limitations on the size of
armed forces; source of revenue
for the support of the federation;
a sound world economic system.
Mr. Hopkins pointed out that
"the economic system of the
world is the biggest problem to
the success of the plan and that
until such basic features are
straightened out the World Fed
eralists can not be any stronger
than the United Nations.
Mr. Kidder, in his arguments
for international peace, declared
that "nations must strive to ob
tain basic rights at home before
any attempts at a world federa
tion can be formed."

Drop Decisions
By George Vadasz
Two Lion sluggers advanced
into the semi-final round of EIBA.
competition last night and one,
the Lions' defending Eastern
heavyweight champion, Chuck
Drazenovich, entered the finals
after his decision win over
Army's Bill Kellum.
Also victorious in the Blue and
White's victory march last night
was the battling PQ Smith. ha
the 14 bouts staged before a Rec
Hall crowd of 3000 last night, it
was Smith who stole the lime
light when he scored the only
TKO victory of the evening's
fight agenda.
In a hotly-contested 165-pound
contest, Smith's barrage of blows
against his green Western Mary
land opponent, Bernard Kelly,
was too much, so the contest was
stopped after 1:58 of the second
round.
Draz Wm:
Defending Eastern heavy
weight champion Chuck Dra
zenovich also emerged with a de-
F. Smith
cision against Army's giant Bill
Kellum. Earlier in the year the
two had battled to a draw in a
Rec Hall dual meet but, using
right upper-cUts effectively, Dra
zenovich turned on the steam in
the third round to gain the
judges' nod.
Nittany 145 - pounder Jack
Sheehe earned a split decision
against previously unbeaten Dick
Trumper of Catholic U. After a
slow moving first round the ring
wise Sheehe carried the fight the
next two rounds to win a closely
contested call.
Smith
Two Houckmen fell by the
wayside in last night's fistic en
gagements. In th e evening's
opening bout Fred Smith dropped
a decision to Catholic Tom
Cronin. Displaying a low-crouch
ing style, the Capitol slugger had
little trouble in annexing his
fifth straight of the season.
Lou Guthrie, Lion 135-pound
er, succumbed to a murderous
barrage of blows, especially a
hard-connecting rig ht, as his
highly-rated Syracuse opponent,
Al Sauerwein, made it seven
straight fur the year. Sauerwein
is the only unbeaten and untied
contestant in the tournament.
Six Men
A surprising Army mitt unit
placed six men into today's EIBA
semi-finals, while Syracuse fol
lowed suit by also placing six
boxers into the semi-final round
and one into the final round.
Penn State has five representa
tives in the semi-final round of
competition which begins at 2
p.m. today. One Penn Stater,
Chuck Drazenovich, enters the
