Stoddard Says
Oaths Quell
Subversives
Chapel Hill, N.C.—Dr. George
Stoddard, president of the Uni
versity of Illinois said yesterday
that he-can see nothing objection
able about requiring teachers to
take loyalty oaths.
"They do not serve to catch
communists," Dr. Stoddard said,
in a speech at the inauguration
of Gordon Gray as president of
North Carolina University. "But
they may be useful as a means of
reducing questionable practices
and as a means of establishing
perjury in advance of overt, sub
versive acts," said the speaker.
Americans Stalled
Korea Communist troops in
North Korea have stalled the first
American drive across the 38th
parallel. Part of the First Cavalry
Division, which penetrated the
North Korean border on Sunday,
were forced to dig in only a mile
beyond the border.
South Korean troops, however,
have stormed into the' big North
Korean port of Wonsan, a key
objective on the East coast.
U. N. Can Protect Peace
Los Angles Louis Johnson,
former Defense secretary, said
yesterday that America and her
allies have proved to ,the world
that the United Nations will and
can protect the peace. "Let us
hope," said Johnson, "that the re
sults in Korea will convince the
Soviet satellites everywhere that
there is no glory in 'dying for
dear old Kremlin'."
U. S. To. Be Alert :
Washington, D.C. John Mc-
Cormack, democratic representa
tive of Mass, said yesterday that
America must be alert for military
invasions of other world areas.
He warned that such invasions
might be similar to the Com
munist attempt to seize South
Korea.
"Witch Hunt"
New York William O'Dwyer,
former mayor of New •York, who
had called the Brooklyn crime
probe a "witch hunt," apologized
yesterday for his remark. He said
he had .been angry because a
Grand Jury was calling policemen
before it to testify about possible
payoffs from gamblers. Since
then, the Grand Jury had un
covered a gambling ring that
paid $1,000,000 each year for
police protection.

he himself will carry the high
standards of football from where
Bob Higgins (head football coach
until 1948) left off.
Livengood sounded the only
political note of the day, conclud
ing his speech with "I know you
must be tired of listening to

Alumni, Trustees Plan
SU Fund Contribution
Plans for alumni contribution to the Student Union fund are
being studied and some sort of contribution will be made, President
Eisenhower has announced.
The President said approval for proposed alumni participation
in the Student Union fund was given last Wednesday at a brief
meeting of the executive committee of the Alumni association. The
- Board of Trustees executive com
mittee also has agreed to go along
with the plan, he said.
Action followed a move in
which All-College cabinet in
s t r u c t e d All-College President
Robert Davis to broach the ques
tion of alumni participation to the
executive committee.
Alumni participation in the
Student Union fund program will
be the first step toward setting up
a general alumni fund campaign
for various purposes, President
Eisenhower said.
Fund Campaign
Committee meetings were held
during the inauguration rush and
there was no time to work out de
tails, according to the President,
who said the fund campaign
would be developed by a joint
alumni-trustee committee which
will be in charge of the general
fund-raising program.
H. Ridge Riley, executive-sec
retary of the Alumni association,
said yesterday that support of the
Student Union would be included
in the first project of the alumni
fund drive, but that nothing could
be done at the moment to set
such a drive in motion. Additional
funds would be needed to set up
a continuing fund campaign, he
said.
Proposal for alumni participa
tion was presented by three cab
inet members at the last Cabinet
Imeeting in an effort to find addi
tional methods of financing the
Student Union building. The Stu
dent Union committee was in
structed last spring to investiglte
further financing methods.
College Budget
President Eisenhower also re
ported that preliminary work on
the proposed College budget, to
be presented to the state General
Assembly, had been completed,
but that he did not know how
soon it could be made public.
Concert Drive
Reaches Goal
Memberships in the Commun
ity drive were all sold out by
noon last Saturday, Wilmer E.
Kenworthy, chairman of the
board, announced yesterday.
An overwhelming number of
memberships were sold to factilty
members and towns people as
compared to the ones sold to stu
dents, according to Kenworthy.
The drive was climaxed last
Thursday with the announce
ment that the 95-piece Indiana
polis Symphony Orchestra was
signed to appear on Feb. 9. Fa
bian Sevitzky will be the con
ductor.
The other three concerts that
will be presented this year will
be discussed and possibly chosen
this afternoon by a committee
comprised of student and faculty
leaders.
The number of memberships
sold was determined by the seat
ing capacity of Schwab auditor
ium, Kenworthy said. A series
ticket entitles the holder to any
seat in the auditorium and tick
ets for individual performances
will not be sold.
The Community Concert series
replaces the old Artists' course
which was discontinued last year.
The series operates on a no-pro
fit-no-loss basis by selling mem
berships then booking concerts on
the amount raised.
The series is international in
scope and has over 1000 Ameri
can and Canadian communities
listed as members. Headquarters
are located in New York City
and Chicago.
Papers Praise
New President
Compliments and praise for the
new College President, Dr. Mil
ton S. Eisenhower, made the edi
torial pages of many Pennsyl
vania newspapers over the week
end, following President Eisen
hower's inauguration last week.
The Philadelphia Inquirer not
ed that President Eisenhower
"typifies the new sort of leader—
the man who combines scholarly
attainments with insight into
world problems—to whom one
great institution of learning after
another is turning."
The editorial went on to com
ment on the President's achieve
ments in government, and stated,
"These qualifications that angur
well for the development of the
Pennsylvania State College."
The ' Harrisbur Patriot noted,
"Penn State has meant a great
deal to the youth of the state
through the years . . . so it is
proper that Penn State acquires
the best possible leadership avail
able in the nation. The leadership
is personified in Dr. Eisenhower."
Said the Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin, "The new President does
not intend the institution to rest
on either past or present achieve
men. Education in his view has
never caught up with the times.
If there are some who lack the
mental capacity for college work
there are many more who are
capable and denied the oppor
tunity."
Froth Meeting
Promotion manager, William
Brady, asks all candidates for the
Penn State Froth promotion staff
to report for a meeting in 100
negie at 7 p.m. tonight.
PRICE FIVE CENTS
Dilworth Hits
Republicans
HARRISBURG Richardson
Dilworth, Democratic nominee
for Governor, charged in a cam
paign speech Friday that the
Republican party had made Penn
State a "political football."
Successive Republican admin
istrations have placed the insti
tution under political domination,
he said. This action has retarded
the College from developing as
one of the greatest farm schools
in the country, Dilworth continu
ed.
Trustees of , the College are
appointed
. by the Governor.
"I am hopeful that under Penn
State's new president, Dr. Milton
Eisenhower, it can wipe out this
political domination and set up
the greatest farm school in the
country," Dilworth added.
He maintained that the College
had to take a back seat to Cor
nell university and lowa State
university as a result of the Re
publican party's mainpulations.
