sored..:by_tha.Daily Collegian last night in the .TUB. • ' •(,-
A sparse crowd of Jess than 100 attended the election-eve mixer.
Skip Reider and his orchestra provided the dance music.

and Clair George, Lion, candidates
for president; Harry Cover, State,
and Ray Evert, Lion, for vice
president; Thomas Jurchak, State,
and William Klisahin, Lion, for
secretary-treasurer; and David
Olmsted, State, and John Stoudt,-
Lion, for senior class president.
All Introduced
Answering a question as to the
fate of the Student Union assess
ment should it be impossible to
go ahead with ' construction,
Worth and George came up with
different opinions.' Worth felt
that the assessment should be
continued, but at a reduced rate.
George favored dropping .the as
sessment if construction were
ruled out.
George backed up a Lion party
platform plank favoring laundry
case pickup service in the West
dorm and women’s dorm area. He
promised to “put more pressure”
on Russell Clark, director of
housing, to secure the same serv
ice that now is available in the
Nittany-Pollock area.
Worth Defends Plank *
A State party plank advocating
a President’s b<jx at Beaver field
was defended by Worth as a
* means toward getting “better re
lations” between the students and
the President.
Both Stoudt and Olmsted re
peated their pledges to push the
drive toward the elimination of
senior finals. Stoudt urged con
tinued “agitation” while Olmsted
called for greater cooperation
among seniors so that the admin
istration would pay more heed. ■
The State party plank on, sor
ority houses was kicked around
by Cover and Evert, with Cover
defending the plank and Evert
attacking it ■ as “impractical.”
Both agreed that Pearl O. Weston,
dean of women, opposed sorority
houses, but Cover contended that
some members of the administra
tion favor sorority houses.

tory of campus politics, the
politicians have taken their
campaigning to the airwaves.

candidate for All - College
president, recorded the “first”
last night with a five-minute
appeal for votes over WMAJ.
Worth stressed the . State
party platform in his address.
He called for a student refer
endum for. all assessments ap
proved by cabinet, sophomore
representation on Tribunal,
and answered Lion party
charges against a State party
plank favoring investigation
toward the establishment of
sorority housds.
The Lion party had charged
that such investigation would
be useless in view of material
shortages. Worth asked how
there could be building ma
terials for the Student Union
and not for sorority houses.

Senator Asks Congress
For Declaration Of War
WASHINGTON, April 17 (IP) —Senator Cain (R-Wash.) today
introduced a resolution calling on Congress to declare war against
Communist China and North Korea.
At the same time, he offered another resolution calling for “an
orderly withdrawal” of U.S. forces from Korea.
Two Alternatives
Cain said he offered his reso
lutions as “two alternatives to
the free world and to the United
States of America.” He added:
“These resolutions, when re
duced to their fundamental pur
pose, provide that we either
prosecute the Korean war with
all of the might, determination,
and power at our command or
that we withdraw our forces from
a battlefield some 8000 miles
away in order that these forces
may live to fight, if required, but
jyith purpose, some other day.
Resolutions To Encourage
“These resolutions are an en
couragement for America and her
allies to either put up, if all of
us wish to support the mission
which was given to the free forc
es in Korea last June, or to shut
Control of the student government for the coming year
will be decided today and tomorrow when students go to the
polls to select an All-College president and eight other offi
cers. ,
The actual balloting will climax nine days of campaign
ing by the State and Lion parties. The campaign has centered
about charges and counter-charges over the party platforms.
Noon Deadline
For Draft Tests
Students will be able to pick
up applications for student
deferment tests in the base
ment of Willard hall until noon
today, H. K. Wilson, dean of
men, said yesterday.
He said that after today,
students will have to visit local
draft boards or make arrange
ments with the draft board in
Bellefonte to make out appli
cations for the test.
Both graduate and under
graduate draft-eligible stu
dents would be wise to take
advantage of the chance to
make out an application now
rather than go through the
trouble later, Wilson said.
Gass Gift
Suggestions
Due Today
Today is the deadline for sub
mitting suggestions for spending
the $BOOO senior .class gift fund,
Otto Grupp, Senior Class Gift
committee chairman, said yester
day.
The suggestion box will re
main at the Student Union desk
in Old Main until 5 o’clock to
night. The committee requested
that all suggestions be signed so
that it can get in toqch with the
submitter of the idea to work
out details. Unsigned suggestions
will be accepted, members added.
The committee of Grupp, Wil
liam Barr, Jo Ann Esterly,. and
Joseph Lenchner pick out the best
suggestions. The senior, class will
vote for the method of spending
their $BOOO at the end of the
month.

up, if the free forces are now of
the opinion that their collective
effort is inadequate and insuffi
cient to carry out their mission.”
Cain made it clear he was act
ing alone, without approval or
disapproval of Republicans. He
appealed also for support of - in
dependents and Democrats.
Employ All Forces
In the declaration of war reso
lution Cain said the President
should be directed to “employ
the entire military and naval
forces of the United States and
the resources of the government”
against North Korea and the Chi
nese Communist regime.
Under the resolution, Congress
would pledge all of the nation’s
resources to bring the war to “a
successful termination.’*

Both’Parties Confident
Both parties seem confident on
the eve of- election. All-College
presidential candidates Worth
and George both issued state
ments.
“I hope the students will com
pare the slates man for man, the
qualifications man for man, the
platforms of both parties, and
will consider what has been done
and what has not been done in
the past,” Worth said. 1 “If they
make these comparisons,” he
concluded, “and support their
conclusions with their votes, I
know we will be successful.”
“I feel that the Lion party this
year,” George said, “has very ex
cellent chances of winning. I
think the biggest difference be
tween the two parties this year
is that the Lion party has
made no bold claims as to things
it can do which are not actually
in the hands of the five men who
will be elected to All-College
cabinet. The only thing I wish to
urge the student body is to get
out and vote so as to get a ma
jority decision'this year.’*
