Transfer Device
Students who were able to get hold of a copy
of the anti-Reede circular using old newsstories
from Collegian saw an excellent example of the
transfer device used in propaganda.
THE FIRST PAGE is a beauty. On it are the
words: "From files of the Daily Collegian." The
natural implication is that the publishers of the
circular came to the Collegian offices and were
allowed to use files there. Such an obvious con
clusion carries the further implication that Col
legian sanctioned such use of its files.
None of these implications are 'correct. As
we pointed out yesterday, the material was
obtained from files in the library, and with
out any foreknowledge on the part of the Col
legian..
HeadlineS used throughout the circular were
placed immediately above reproductions of the
Collegian nameplate, i.e., the words "The Daily
Collegian" which appear at the top of the front
page. Obvious purpose of this device is to give
the false impression that the headlines also ap
peared in Collegian.
..BUT THE PERFIDY of this technique be
comes obvious from the wording of the head
lines: "Reede Organizes Radical AVC," "Reede
Participates In Subversive ASU," "Reede Says:
U. S. Armaments Not Defensive,".
" 'Moscow
Cha in p . ' Dr. Dußois, 'Great American'
Reede," and "Reede Opposes Arming!"
Most of the articles cited were lifted out of
their pre-World War II context, with the in
ference that they represent Reede's present-day
'views.
If this is clean politics, we shudder at the
'thought of what dirty politics must be.
Driven To Cover
The administration's rejection of the IFC pro
posal for chaperoned drinking was not unex
pected. Nevertheless, the action disappointed us,
inasmuch as we feel a reasonable solution to
the drinking problem that would entail a com
promise on both sides could . be reached and, in
the long run, might be a lot better all around.
ADMINISTRATIVE disapproval of drinking
will not stop drinking in fraternities or any
where else—we all might as well face that fact.
And if drinking continues, mixed drinking and
drinking by minors is sure to continue. It mere
ly will driven under cover and will result
in punishment for violation of a code which will
not be adhered to. We think both the idea of
rule-breaking and the psychology of drinking
on the sly are bad.
The most reasonable plan—and the one most
likely to control excesses—would be one which
would allow drinking under specified condi
dit ions.

Dicta And Bleatings
TO THE EDITOR: To Francis Artley. It is in
deed unfortunate that you felt it necessary to
write to the editor in protest against. "Headline
Seekers." What yOu have witnessed, Francis, is
a splendid example of the Jehovah Complex in
action. You can see it quite frequently •in the
Daily Collegian—in the dicta of L. D. Gladfel
ter, the bleatings of Mr. Degler upon his ines
capable soapbox, and in the high-schoolish vani
ties of a •flowery prose by Ron Bonn. You know,
of course, they've got the power and we don't.
It is a wonder that your letter was printed, since
the "error" was rectified in the same issue. It
will be more so if this one is printed, or uncut,
although my opinions, and' I will label them as
such, would remain not disproved.
• Letter Cut
injustice To Sophomores
TO THE EDITOR: Your reference to the fact
that the sophomores did not actively participate
in the cheers during the Penn State-Temple
football game is unfounded and a gross injustice
to the sophomore class. Your statement that
cheerleaders were doing all the yelling, is in a
respect, also an untruth.
The men cheerleaders appeared,.at times, ob
livious to the different class sections and it was
due to this laxity on their part that the proper
spirit was not disseminated. While the new fe
male additions to the cheering squad were at
tractive and petite, they were incapable at that
time to present the cheers adequately.
• Letter Ctit
Solomon E. Jaffe
Ed. Note—Mr. Jaffe apparently misunder
stood our comment. From where we sat, the
only ones we could hear cheering with any
consistency were the frosh and sophs. They
as well as upperclassmen could have used
their lungs more heartily.

bent opponent, for attacks on

use of the so-called Ex-Service
men group's aid after stating
Monday night that the contest
was a personal one between the
two candidates. It also cited what
it termed several errors in fact
in the circular.
Defending his support of peace
demonstrations before World War
11, Reede said, "All persons who
remember my participation will
recall that I worked hard to pre
vent them from being 'taken over'
by Communistic elements."
Claims Attack On College
Reede also cited Van Zandt for
implying Communist activities at
the College were widespread. He
said, "Our Congressman denied
recently that he had attacked the
College as a 'hotbed of Commun
ism'. Let him deny it to anyone
who has read these assorted press
clippings, usually torn from their
context, and all giving the im
pression that the campus is rife
with Communistic activities. Of
course, injury to the College is a
small matter to our Congressman
compared to his bid for re-elec
tion."
The Statement from Reede's col
leagues condemning Van Zandt's
tactics said, "Regardless of poli
tics—some of us are Republicans,
some Democrats—we all dislike
personalities, unproved charges
and rumors, and unfounded re-

It scored Van Zandt for "poor
taste" and stated, "We may or
may not agree with Arthur H.
Reede, but we certainly respect
him. We have. no doubt of his
honesty, loyalty, and compet
ence."
Luther Harshbarger, executive
secretary of the PSCA, told the
Daily Collegian, "We certainly
object to the use in this circular
of the PSCA name without any
authorization whatsoever:" The
circular attacked Reede in part
on the basis of two articles re
lating to an advisory position
which Reede held jointly in 1935
with Charles P. Hogarth, then
associate secretary of PSCA.
Collegian Protests
A Daily Collegian statement
yesterday strongly protested the
linking of the paper with the at
tack on Reediy.. "No permission
was sought or given for the 'Ex-
Servicemen's League of Blair
County, to reproduce the Colleg
ian nameplate," Collegian said ed
itorially.
Collegian erroneously stated in
the last paragraph of yesterday's
'report on the circular that Hugh
Manchester was "campaigning
for Reede." The words should
have been: "campaigning against
Reede." Manchester. was definite
ly identified several times earlier
in the story as attacking Reede
and obtaining material that was
used against him.
