AIM Governors
Not Efficient,
Turk Charges
Francis Turk, former president
of the Nittany dorm council,
charged the board of governors
of the Association of Independent
Men with inefficiency and lack of
organization at meetings of the
West dorm and Nittany dorm
councils Monday night.
The West dorm council subse
quently approved the forming of
a committee to investigate and
take action on Turk's charges.
John Laubach, president of Nit
tany council, said he would talk
to Richard Bard, president of the
AIM board, about the matter.
Bard was not available for corn
ment on the charges.
•
No Meeting Held
Turk asked the councils to "get
on AIM'S back," or the board will
be unable to operate effectively
until shortly before Christmas.
He said that Bard has represented
AIM and its 6,000 members at
five All-College Cabinet meet
ings, but, as yet, there have been
no meetings of the AIM board.
He said AIM could not have a
complete board of governors until
the Town council is organized and
officers are elected. This will
take another month, according to
Turk. "Let's, put the blame on the
four officers of AIM," he said.
The other officers are William
Zakor, vice-president; Richard
Mills, secretary; and Howard Fit
ting, treasurer.
Turk said each student pays 25
cents to AIM "whether he knows
it or not" for the operation of
AIM but no services have been
offered yet.
Nittany Council
Protests Rates
Action will be taken by the
Nittany council against the ad
ministration's plan to assess -all
men in the Nittany and Pollock
areas $l2O a semester for living
without a roommate in a double
room.
At a council meeting Monday
night it was decided that a letter
would be sent to men in charge of
housing in the areas in an attempt
to repeal the measure.
The council also protested the
adminiAration's right to allow
weekend guests to stay in vacant
and semi-vacant rooms. The
council stated the opinion that if
students were assessed the fee
of $l2O they should and not the
administration hold the right to
allow guests to sleep in • their
rooms.
Other action taken by the coun
cil include a $l5 prize which will
be presented to the leading dorm
itory in the Campus Chest drive,
and the decision to aid the West
Dorm council in their attempts
to raise money for their treas
ury.

Balloting Heavy
In Congressional
Election Returns
An estimated 42,000,000 voters
went to the polls yesterday, and
a record for a non-presidential
year may have been set.
President Truman voted the
straight Democratic ticket in his
home town of Independence, Mo.
yesterday, and then flew back to
Washington for conferences on the
turn of events in Korea. The Pres
ident was so confident of the out
come of the election, he wouldn't
even sit up to hear about it.
Korean Front Quiet
TOKYO—A strange quiet con
tinued on the Korean front yes
terday while Chinese resistance
eased suddenly in both the North
west and Northeast. There was
nothing to indicate the Reds were
withdrawing. During the lull,
American and British troops ad
vanced more than two - miles on
the crucial Northwest front. To
the East, American Marines went
forward nearly a mile toward the
big Changjin power dam.
The Chinese Communist radio
at Peiping admitted that Chinese
are fighting with Korean Reds
against United Nations troops in
Korea. Radio Peiping said the
Chinese were volunteers.
Prof's Essay Accepted
"Romantic Democracy," an es
say by Dr. John M. Anderson, as
sociate professor of philosophy at
the College, has been accepted for
the Fall issue of the American
Quarterly. The essay deals with
Walt Whitman and 19th century

Voting Heavy
At Local Polls
Voting at Centre county polling
places was reported heavy in
early checks yesterday with the
major interest centering around
the Reede-Van Zandt race for the
22nd district seat in Congress.
Early reports showed that vot
ing was normal throughout the
rest of the state as the campaign,
marked by some of the roughest
name-calling in years, came to a
close.
Interest Slight
Apparently student interest in
the elections for governor and
Cangress was slight. PSCA, which
was sponsoring rides home for
student voters, reported that only
four students, had signed up. Few
excuses from class for voting had
been filled out, it .was reported.
In the Reede-Van Zandt race,
the betting • odds reportedly had
narrowed since earlier in the cam
paign, but Van Zandt, the Re
publican candidate, still was con
sidered the favorite.
Counter-Charges
Polls did not close until 8 p.m.,
and no significant returns were
expected until sometime before
dawn today.
The local Congressional race
was marked by charges and
counter-charges which tended to
involve the College, the Collegian,
student government, and PSCA
in the campaign.

Renewed Effort
At Fraternities
Urged In Drive
Herbert Axford, Campus chest
chairman, yesterday asked all
fraternity solicitors to renew
their efforts on behalf of the chest
drive.
Axford announced that no ap
preciable donations had been re
ceived at the chest headquarters
in Old Main and that the total
was still about $B,OOO.
Chief Bottlenecks
He said that the fraternities
were the chief bottleneck in the
drive's attempt to reach its goal
of $14,000. Fraternity solicitors
have been rather lax in their- at
tempts to contact members, he
added. He said that the fraterni
ties are regrouping and' starting
over again in an effort to reach
all members.
At the same time he compli
mented the faculty and college
personnel for their contributions
to the chest. He said that they
were doing a "wonderful job."
"If the remaining students and
fraternity members get behind
the drive they can put it over the
top," he said.
Greatest Amount
• Axford said that he expects the
greatest amount of contributions
to reach the chest headquarters
tomorrow, but added that the fi
nal figures on the amount of do
nations will not be available un
til sometime next week.
The drive was originally sched
uled to end last Saturday but was
extended until Friday in order to
give the solicitors additional time
to contact students they missed:
The purpose of the three-day
convention is to acquaint students
with the methods used in political
affairs• and to explore the rele
vance of religion to them, so that
the student may be better able to
formulate ideals in concrete situa
tions. -
Members of the faculty commit
tee and resource leaders of the
colloquy are: W. C. Fernelius,
John H. Ferguson, Wallace Brew
ster, Neal Riemer, L. E. Corter,
Seth Russell, Arthur H. Reede,
William Edgerton, W. G. Mather,
C. C. Peters, faculty members,
Mrs. F. R. Matson, graduate stu
dent, and Luther Harshbarger, ex
ecutive secretary of the PSCA.
Speeches and DiscuSsions
The colloquy will include ad
dresses, panel discussions and
"backroom" discussions in which
the delegates will have an oppor
tunity to talk with the guest
speakers intimately.
Delegations from Bucknell Uni
versity, Juniata college, Lock
Haven State Teachers college, Ly
coming college, University of
Pittsburgh, Susquehanna college,
West Virginia University and
the College will attend the collo
quy. . - -

making at fraternity houses as
soon as possible. He also set Tues
day, Nov. 14 as the tentative date
for the Lion campaign parade, de
pending when permission is given
by the borough.
Stevens declined to give any
further campaign information.
Speeches at Fraternities
Campaign chairman Murray
Goldman stated that State party
candidates will speak at fratern
ity houses beginning Thursday at
noon. He added that speeches will
be much shorter this year than
they have been' in the past.
Goldman also said that the
State party will start a door-to
door campaign in sophomore and
freshman living units, using their
ward system as a means of intro
ducing candidates to students.
