are printed below.
State Party
The new State party, having
been founded on the principle of
a student government that is rep
resentative of the students inter
ests, submits its platform to the
students with their interests as
its prime objective. As a party,
we wish to welcome the fresh
men and sophomore classes to
Penn State and to assure them
that the candidates of the State
party will work with* and for
them to make a better Penn
State. To aid the candidates in
their work, the State parly has
set forth the following measures
to be acted upon during the en
suing term of office.
1. To create a workable plan
for sophomore representation on
Tribunal and Judicial.
2. To support and work with
the Nittany and Pollock councils
in their efforts to obtain a laun
dry service in the Nittany-Pol
lock area. (Washing facilities).
3. To promote the possibility
of more phones in the lobbies of
the women’s living units.
4. To support All-College cab
inet in its preservation program
for Hort woods.
5. To obtain the facilities and
permission to mail laundry cases
and other packages from the
West dorm post-office, by aiding
the West dorm council in their
existing plans.
6. To instigate a plan to im
prove express transportation to
and from Penn State during ma
jor holidays to the larger metro
politan areas of the state.
We believe this is an outline
of a program that the State party
and their candidates can and will
put into effect during the coming
year. However, the State party’s
activities will, by no means be
limited to these planks. As other
important issues arise, such as
giving more jobs, that are now

JLJight are the famous keys of national honor societies.
No. 9 is an important newcomer. It’s the Bell System’s new keyset for
the direct dialing of Long Distance telephone calls. And,' though not yet
"national,” it already has "chapters” in more than 900 - cities and towns.
By pressing these keys, your operator can dial calls straight through to tele
phones in many distant places. Calls go through faster, more accurately.
Automatic dialing of Long Distance calls by operators, a development of the
Bell Telephone Laboratories, is being extended steadily. This new method of
putting through Long Distance calls is especially important right now, when
the nation is counting on telephone service to help speed the job of defense.
