Local Politics
With statewide and Congressional elections
now out of the way, Penn State sophs and frosh
—as well as interesttd onlookers from the other
classes—can give their undivided political at
tention to the class elections scheduled for next
Thursday.
ACTIVE CAMPAIGNING by both parties,
scheduled to begin today, will give most new
students here their first taste of Penn State
student politics. Some frosh and sophs—those
actively aligned with the two cliques—already
are in the swim, and many more probably will
take an active interest within the next seven
days.
Time for new students to get into the habit
of taking part in political activity is now, be
fore they get too immersed in other affairs to
lake an interest at a later date.
The new soph and frosh should get to know
the candidates of both parties, and should study
both platforms carefully. His student represen
tatives will be called upon many times to make
decisions affecting him, and it will be to his
benefit to have a voice in selecting those repre
sentatives and making certain that he will elect
the best candidates available.
Planned Rally
It's heartening to see that some actual plan
ning has been done for tonight's West Virginia
pep rally. A lively, well-planned program, plus
an energetic publicity campaign should produce
a really "peppy" rally, which will set a prece
dent for those remaining this year.
PREVIOUSLY THIS YEAR, there was little
advance preparation for pre-game programs.
Thus, the Georgetown rally was a screaming
success, while the Temple rally was a flabby
fiasco. Such inconsistency defeats the purpose of
a pep rally.
"Pep rallies prove to the team that they are
not only 11 men on the field, but that they
are 11,000 strong," said Robert Fast, Parini
Nous secretary. This senior men's society,
with the help of cheerleaders, has tackled this
problem with the hope of injecting some vita
mins into the waning College spirit and of
showing the team that we're all behind them.
So, here's to a mass turnout of students at the
Lion shrine at 7 o'clock tonight.

Common Sense In Rules
TO THE EDITOR: On Saturday, Nov. 4. I ar
rived at McAllister dining hall at 8 a.m. It was
raining hard. To my dismay, I had forgotten my
meal ticket. Needless to say, I was told to go
back and get it, even though I remembered the
number on the meal ticket. A meal is not worth
risking pneumonia twice . . . so I fasted.
I feel that strict adherence to rules is despotic.
We are individuals and as such ought not to be
treated as members of a totalitarian society.

More Payment Plans
TO THE EDITOR: In my opinion there are
quite a few who still resent the method by
which the proposed Student Union building has
been appropriated . . . It is not too late to find
means and ways to alleviate the subsequent
debt ... which will be incurred upon the under
graduates for years to come. The following me
thods are believed to be in accord with the
above:
1. Instead of letting the concession (soft
drinks, etc.) at Beaver field in the hands of a
private merchant, a plan should be initiated
whereby the Student Union would run the con
cession and the enormous profit go to the Stu
dent Union building fund.
2. A similar concession (of dry goods) run by
the Student Union could be had in Rec. hall
during the indoor sports season.
