4 Men Fined
By Tribunal
Student Tribunal fined four
traffic violators last night while
five students failed to appear in
answer to the summons mailed
to them.
A $4 fine was levied on a stu
dent who was charged with
parking in a reserved area and
having a parking permit which
had expired. The. permit had
been issued to a student who has
now been graduated. The viola
tor told Tribunal that he had
found the permit. One dollar of
the fine was suspended.
A student charged with driv
ing on Pollock road during class
time paid a $2 fine.
Parking in a restricted area on
Ag hill cost one student driver
$l, while another had his sen
tence suspended after pleading
guilty to parking in a private
driveway. The student charged
that the campus patrol report
was in error regarding the num
ber of offenses reported.

lation cases could be avoided if
the student body would cooperate
with the regulations.

PRICE FIVE CENTS
Lamie Scores 24
Points As 3500
Watch Lions Win
By ERNIE MOORE
Approximately 3500 basketball
fans looked on in delight last
night as Penn State successfully
opened its 1950-51 basketball
season by soundly trouncing
Ithaca College, 70-31, on the Ree
hall court.
The Nittany cagers displayed
a sharpshooting and aggressive
game against the Bombers, com
bining a cautious offense with a
tight zone which forced the
Bombers to hurry their shots and
shoot from beyond the foul
circle.
Captain Lou Lamie paced the
Nittany quintet in the scoring
column as the jump shot special
ist poured 24 points through the
hoop. Hardy Williams took run
nerup honors with 11 counters.
Hit On 35.5
The Grossmen connected on
35.5 per cent of their shots while
the Ithacans could show only a
16.5 per cent card.
The Lions built up a lead early
in the first half and it was never
seriously threatened. Lamie coun
tered State’s first score with a
one hand jump shot from the key.
McMahan, Williams and Panoples
each scored two pointers before
Lamie counted again with two
fouls to run the score to 10-0.
Burt Maskin was the first Bom
ber to break into the scoring col
umn when he converted a foul
after five minutes had elapsed in
the contest.
With Lamie and Williams pro
viding most of the points the
Lions moved to a 20-8 lead before
Ray Kirkgasser began hitting on
set shots and pulled the Ithacans
to within 11 points just before
the half ended. But Stu Phillips
and George Lynch popped in six
points between them and State

Cabinet Will Meet
At Eisenhowers'
All-College cabinet tonight will
hold its second social meeting of
the semester at the home of
President Milton S. Eisenhower,
according to Robert Davis, All-
College president.
The non-business meeting wiR
begin at 7 o’clock. The group will
bring President Eisenhower up
to date on past actions and dis
cuss future plans. Cabinet had
a similar meeting with the Presi
dent during October.
Cabinet had originally been in
vited to the President’s home last
Thursday, but the meeting was
cancelled when weather condi
tions prevented many cabinet
members from returning to cam
pus.
Dgvis said a business meeting
would be held next Thursday.
He said two things probably on
the agenda would be the Daily
Collegian’s request for an in
crease in its student assessment
from 75 cents per person each
semester to $l.lO, and a report
by the Christmas lawn display
committee.
