EDITOR'S NOTE: If a Daily Collegian
reporter, 4isguised as a waiter, had graciously
given up an hour of his Spring vacation, he
might have brought us this exclusive report of
the much-publicized Schott-Michelosen inter
view in Pittsburgh.
SCENE: Sun-bathed dining room of Hotel
Schenley.
TIME: 12 o'clock noon, or shortly thereafter.
SCHOTT: Hello, John. Sorry to be late. What
are you eating?
MICHELOSEN: Just chewing on some celery,
Doctor. I got a little hungry.
SCHOTT: Strictly from hunger, eh, Johns
(uproarious laughter).
Six or seven men seated at an adjoining
fable turned, their pencils poised, when they
heard Dr. Schott's guffaws.
SCHOTT: Who are those men, John? They
look like newspapermen.
MICHELOSEN: They are, Doctor. Art (Roo
ney) sent them along.
SCHOTT: How nice. They're really interested,
aren't they?
MICHELOSEN: Yes, they are, Doctor. They
want me to tell them what I'm going to do.
SCHOTT: I don't blame them for that, John.
After all, they must pay their bills, just like
the rest of us.
SCHOTT (as an afterthought): Shall I invite
them to lunch, John?
MICHELOSEN: It won't be necessary, Doctor.
Art (Rooney) already has taken care of that.
SCHOTT: Wonderful man, Rooney. We could
certainly use a man of his type at Penn State.
Always kind, and considerate.
MICHELOSEN: They've asked for some pic
tures, Doctor Schott. Would you mind if we let
them shoot a couple of us?
SCHOTT: Not at all, John. Not at all. Do you
want me to step out into the lobby?
MICHELOSEN: Of course not, Doctor. It
wouldn't be a picture without you. They want
both of us at the table together ... as if we were
discussing the coaching vacancy at Penn• State.
SCHOTT: Oh yes, I understand. Mighty nice
of you to think of me, John. I'd be happy to
cooperate.
MICHELOSEN (to reporters): Okay, boys.
Send in the photographers.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER (to Michelo
sen): Okay, John. But, how about the statement
—is it ready yet?
MICHELOSEN (to reporter, somewhat irrita
tedly): Take your time, fellow. Let's do one
thing at a time.
MICHELOSEN (to Schott): Have you thought
of anything to say to the boys ... about the job,
I mean, Doctor?
SCHOTT: Heavens, no, John. I thought of it,
of course,. but perhaps you will be able to handle
that better . . .
The conversation is interrupted as photo
graphers scurry about table, trying to get best
angle on the two principals.
MICHELOSEN: Well, thank heaven's that's
over with. Now we can eat.
SCHOTT: Right you are, John. I'm hungry,
too.
MICHELOSEN: Would you like to look over
my staternent, Doctor, while you're nibbling on
your salad?
SCHOTT: Glad to, John. Glad to.
Schott reads prepared statement carefully,
leaving his salad once or twice to straighten
paper with his fingers.
SCHOTT: Well done, John. Well done. The
right decision, too. The Steelers have been
good to you and Art Rooney, well, there's a real
gentleman. A fine man to work for, John.
MICHELOSEN: Thank you, Doctor. I tried to
be fair about everything—Penn State, you, the
Steelers. After all, they've been wonderful to
me. And, as you say, Art Rooney's a grand boss.
SCHOTT: You bet, John. You bet.
Schott concentrates on salad and polishes
that off before plunging into his meal. Con
versation is forgotten.
SCHOTT: Fine meal, John, wonderful. You've
been wonderful, too. I was delighted to see you
again, and have this opportunity to talk to you.
The best of• luck to you, young man, the best of
luck.
MICHELOSEN: Thank you, Doctor. It was
nice to see you. And I hope you'll remember me
to Bob Higgins, Joe Bedenk . . . all my good
friends . . . at State College. Wonderful people,
- all of them.
REPORTER'S SUMMARY MIGHT BE:
Looked like Schott just came along for the
ride. Best guess is that Schott still hopes to
find his next coach on the campus (at $6OOO
per year) and leave Penn State a win-less
football team as a memorial to. College's fru
gality. Head waiter later told me confidenti
ally that Steeler. President Art Rooney had
filled Schott's car with gas, had picked up
luncheon tab, and had given Schott a season
pass to Steelers' home games as a momento.
Schott appeared very happy when he left
hotel after luncheon.

Party Platforms:
State
The State Party advocates the
fullest student support and does
dedicate its platform to com
batting all racial and religious
intolerance that presents itself
here at Penn State in any form
whatsoever.
The State Party feels that this
should not only be the keynote
of the current electibn, but that
it should be the foremost desire
of every student, in order to
make for a better place to live
and work . . . . a better Penn
1. We feel that the present
scholarship program is not ade
quate to fill the needs for which
it is set up. As the school grows,
so should the facilities to aid
those students who have shown
the capability to continue with
their education. We want to lend
as. much student support as we
can in dealing with this prob
lem.
2. The great need for a stu
dent tutoring service is ever
Making itself known and felt
by every student here on
campus. The State Party will
do its best to institute such a
program which will be exten
sive enough to aid everyone
seeking help in the various
schools. This service would be
at lower rates than the ones
now in effect.
3. The State Party will en
deavor, through the proper chan
nels, to have a large "S" placed
on one of the adjacent mountain
sides similar to those on display
in other schools. This party feels
an act of this sort would increase
the fame and degree of public
ity for our school. '
With the Tri-State air lines
operating out of State College
and the hope of other airlines
operating either here or close by,
we feel that this would be an
excellent way to publicize the
College.
4. The State Party is aware
of the fact that the phone
system now operating in the
dormitories—men's and worn
en's—is not capable of hand
ling the volume of calls that
are placed through it daily.
We will endeavor to investi
gate the system to the point
where it can handle all calls
with a greater degree of ef-
ficiency.
5. The State Party advocates
and enlargement of the present
student-faculty advisor system,
in so far as a better breakdown
should facilitate having a small
er number of students under one
advisor. In this way students
will receive more thorough guid
ance in their selected fields.
6. The State Party advocates
more equal representation on

Strongly Protest
TO THE EDITOR: May I be one of the first
in what I hope will be a long stress of protests
from the student body and faculty against the
dismissal of Prof. Lee Lorch. Does the College
board of trustees dare hope that we would' Sit
back and meekly accept their action which is so
prejudicial and discriminatory.
What Mr. Morse said concerning Prof. Lorch's
subletting his apartment to Negroes—that it was
"extreme, illegal, immoral and damaging to the
public relations of the College," I believe would
more aptly' apply to the trustees' dismissal of
Prof. Lorch. The public relations-minded trus
tees should' note that the New York Times and
the letters from Einstein were anything but
praiseworthy.
