On Cheating ...
The merits of the honor system as compared
to the advantages of firm supervision at exam
inations will receive a thorough milling this
evening,
IN 121 SPARKS, in an open debate, Pete
Giesey, IFC proxy; Bob Keller, Tribunal head;
Joel Fleming, ex-chairman of the State party;
and David Copeland, member of the College's
debate squad will have it out.
The question to ponder over is, "does cheat
ing indicate the student's inability to grasp
the course without aid—is it entirely the stu
dent's fault or can this fauld be shared with
the professor and the course?"
An old maxim of ed u c at io n, (apparently
very old and ancient in this age of mass educa
tion) "if the student hasn't learned, the teacher
has not taught," has some degree of merit.
MANY BELIEVE that the honor system in its
strictest sense is merely an unattainable ideal.
The other school of thought claims that strict
supervision and regimentation along fascist
lines is best.
Definitely the current situation at Stale
leaves much to be desired. The road to 'im
provement is wide open.
Maybe tonight's debate will partially solve
the problem. Why not go and listen in?

Voting Fraud
TO THE EDITOR: Voting Fraud at Penn
State??? (Note: The writer of this article will
not swear to it that the following is true).
On Thursday, March .16, I overheard a con
versation that went along as follows: (Mr. A
is a member of one of the "frats" sponsoring a
sweater queen; Mr. B is an independent going
to chow at the Nittany-Pollock chow hall).
Mr. A: "How many "Collegians" were de
livered here today?"
Mr. B; "I don't know; as many as usual I
guess. Why do you ask?"
Mr. A: "A few members of the . "frat" sponsor
ing the other queen contestant work on the Col
legian staff, and I sort of think they're hijacking
papers to get voting applications."
Well, I go to chow every morning at 8:15 and
'there are plenty of Collegiaris lying around, but
Friday, March 17, 1950, I went at 8:00 and not
a Collegian was in sight. Well, I'm not going
to investigate what happened to all the papers,
because I don't give a damn who wins now, but
you who read this can draw your own tonclus.
