Collegiate Debaters Favor
Outlawing Veto Barriers
In an effort to strengthen the United Nations, debaters from
25 Pennsylvania colleges favor the elimination of the use of vetoes
as an absolute legislative barrier.
This decision was reached by the committee on the Mainten
ance of the Peace at the 14th annual weekend Pennsylvania De
baters conference at the College.
If this cannot be accomplished, the committee recommends a
Federation of the World to re
place the United Nations, the fed
eration to be created under a con
stitution providing for amend
ments by a two-thirds vote of
the constituent states and not
subject tr vetn by any individual
state.
International Police
The committee also recom
mends that the establishment of
a strong International Police
Force to be used at the discretion
of a two-third vote of the United
Nations General Assembly or
similar executive body of a Fed
eration. Regional pacts that tend
to divide the world into opposing
camps should be restricted in the
interest of a "united world."
The President of the United
States, the committee said, should
urge and assist the United Na
tions to effect a general reduc
tion of armaments, to direct and
control the institution and ad
ministration of all economic or
relief programs, and aggressively
spread by speech and practice the
fundamental concepts of the
democratic way of life.
Aid to Education
The committee on Improve
mant of Education favored Fed
eral financial aid "to the several
states to improve their facilities
for educating the children of the
United States."
Upon receiving the federal aid,
the committee would require
each state to maintain a specified
minimum expenditure in tax sup
ported elementary and secondary
schools and provide a minimum
salary of $3,000 for elementary
and secondary teachers.
The committee also stressed
:hat "the Federal government
should not have authority to con
rol either curriculum nr to hire
ind fire school personnel in any
•tale nr school district."
Hopper Elected
At the closing session of the
conference, Jeff Hopper, of Alle
gheny College, was named presi
dent of the State Association,
succeeding Richard K. Hill, of
Butler, a senior at the College.
Barry Green, of Pitt, and Mar
garet McGill, of Mount Mercy
College, were named. vice-presi
dents.

Critique Plans
Radical Change
Page dimensions and price will
be the only features of the com
ing issue of Critique which will
he familiar to the magazine's read
ers.
The staff, under the direction of
:•ditor Ralph Lewis, is planning a
magazine type which is seldom
found on a college campus. With a
treatment paralleling that of Life,
Critique*will be primarily a photo
magazine designed to bring to the
students pictorial accounts of off
the-scene life at Penn State.
The photo motif will even ex
tend to the advertising wherein
campus personalities will be fea
tured as models. In addition to
photos, Critique will continue to
Publish some of the types of fea
ture material which have been
most popular among students, in
cluding short stories and poems.
Not only the format, but the size
of the magazine will change, as
evidenced by present plans call
ing for 64 pages in the next issue,
scheduled for publication in the
near future. On the 64 pages will
appear approximately 100 photos
and features, among which will be
a pictorial feature on the inside
of the College president's home.
In disclosing that there would
be no change in the 15 cent price,
Lewis explained that the new Cri
tique is to be a product of the
photo-offset printing method
which allows for great economy
in the use of photographs.

Dorm Starts War
To Stamp Out
Swearing
A new kind of war, one to
stamp out swearing, began last
week in Pollock Circle's Dorm 2.
A group in the Circle launched
a clean-up offensive against abus
ing the English language, by
forming a no-swearing club. Ac
cording to the rules, when a
member swears he is subject to
a 5 cent fine for each word.
After a trial week, one member
said he had little trouble restrain
ing himself except in situations
like banging his finger with a
hammer. The only immediate re
sults of this campaign were the
observers who were shocked by
outbursts of the "holy cow" "gee
whiz" type of cursing.
Money collected from default
ing members is being kept in a
pool, to be used for a beer party.
This action may lead purists to
battle over which is more desir
able—alcohol or bad language.

LOCAL MAN MAKES GOOD
SENSE!
For seventeen years, George
Doakes has been shaving daily
even as you and I. He's tried 'em
all razor blades, we mean. Some
were better than others, but none
did what the ads said until but
here's his story:
"Saw a man in the Pullman using
Pal Hollow Ground. He looked
happy. I asked about 'em. He lent
me one. And I've shaved happily
ever after!"
You don't have to travel to try
Pal Hollow Ground. Say Pal Dou
ble Edge or Single Edge at your
local store. You still get 4 blades
for 100, 10 for 250, 21 for 490, 44
for 980. Join the millions who
swear by Pal hollow Ground.

living units in the House cooper
ate very well," the chairman
says. However, she did express
the desire that those units who
are not sending any representa

it is a privilege to come," she re
marked. Those units are getting
a vote in women's government
and after two consecutive ab-
Sences of their representatives
will be dropped from. the House.
The House of Representatives
has undertaken the Christmas
and clothing drives this year. The
