Cabinet Open To Student Voices All-College Cabinet, highest student govern ment legislative body, will meet for the first time at 8 tonight in 201 Old Main. . With 24 members sitting on cabinet, every member of the student body is represented at least four times. There is no chance that any student will fail to find a voice on cabinet. ' Cabinet is, however, always open to all stu dents. The meeting room is small, but should there ever be a need for more spectator space, we feel sure meetings would be held in larger quarters. Not only are students always welcome at cabinet meetings, but they are also free to speak up and express their opinions at any time, on any issue. The only thing students cannot do at the meetings is vote. This responsibility is left to the members. But good student government is not the re sponsibility of the members of cabinet alone. Good student government is the responsibility of every student on this campus. This responsibility includes • questioning can didates for office, voting in elections, supporting student government functions, and taking an interest in the affairs of the governing bodies themselves. Student government does not include only All-College .Cabinet. Interfraternity Council, the Association of Independent Men, the West Dorm Council, the living unit councils—these are all part of Penn State student government. Each of them merits the interest of students, for combined their voice is loud, strong—and effective. Parking Problems - Acute in recent years, the lack of parking - space on campus seems on the verge of col lapsing into a desperate state this year. We don't have any idea of the exact figures, but it 'Seems as if there are more cars than ever' be fore on campus this semester. Parking space is at a premium, despite ad ditional parking areas. At the same time, however, that additional parking space has been provided, the two-way • driving scheme now in operation on Pollock and Shortlidge roads has eliminated space for possibly 200 vehicles, if not more: Students and others not authorized on cam pus with cars can help the situation by leaving their automobiles at home. But even full co operation by unauthorized drivers would leave many without parking space. Two-way driving on Pollock and Shortlidge roads has already proved unworkable for week ends. The elimination of the scheme would also make additional .parking space available. Both these factors should be weighed in any study of Penn State's traffic problem. Have You? If you are not an undergraduate, have not purchased a subscription, or are not on the complimentary mailing list, you should riot be reading this copy of the Daily Collegian. The Daily Collegian is a student publication. We are supported by a student fee of $l.lO per semester. Faculty and staff members, graduate students; and secretaries do not contribute to the support of the Daily Collegian. They do not pay any fees. They are not entitled to pick up the Daily Collegian at the Student Union desk or any place else. When a non-student, except those otherwise entitled, picks up a copy of the Daily Collegian he is depriving a student of something for which he has shelled out hard cash. Such persons are no better than pickpockets or those who pick up a paper at a newsstand and fail to pay for it. Under a plan introduced this semester, faculty and staff members, graduate students, and sec retaries can have the Daily Collegian delivered to their offices for only $3.75 a year. Don't cheat the students; buy a subscription. Pakistan and Egypt concluded a Treaty of Friendship on September 11 in Cairo. Edward Shanken Business Mgr.

The Time is Short (Continued from page one) . welcomed the support' of an Allen Zoll, boss - of an outfit called "America Patriots, Inc., cited by the government for- being fascist and subver sive, a man cited by the House committee on Un- American activities as / a "very strong anti semite," a man whom the American Legion in 1948 cited for "along record of activity in con nection with . . .dubious outfits of a fascist or near fascist character . . . " The purpose of this piece of legislation be comes only too clear. So the time is really short for the people of Pennsylvania. The time is short, for the passage of the loyalty bill will sound the death knoll for free dom as we in Pennsylvania have known it. We oppose the loyalty bill because it will destroy the American tradition of free in quiry and free expression of ideas without fear of reprisal and intimidation. We oppose the ,loyalty bill because it would limit the pursuance of truth in our in stitutions of higher learning. We oppose the loyalty bill because it con- r tributes to the momentum of the hysterical" landslide of fear that i sweeping the nation. We oppose the loyalty bill not because we have any sympathy with the Communists or their cause, but rather because such legisla tion plays into the hands of the Communists in their efforts to undermine our democratic system. We oppose the loyalty bill because it comes at a time when. we should be , broadcasting, our freedoms to the world rather than adver tising our fears to people wh'o seek leader ship, vision, and faith in the democratic method, and not panic. Safety Valve-- We Do Not Have . Proper Athletic Representation TO THEEDITOR: Tuesday, ,morning in "the Lion's 'Lair" (the Collegian) sports edito,r, so aptly once more pointed out to our student body the fine calibre of Penn State leadership, through its athletic program, in comparison to other educational institutidns, in this field. Undoubt edly corruptness has once more shown its face. We are told that State's sports program is much closer to the student : body than in most schools, especially in basketball which has received the brunt of sports' most recent scandals. I am in complete agreement with the writer on this point and also on the statement that NSA's declaration and action on the subject taken at the fourth National Student Congress are sound. However,.the agreement does not apply in all points mentioned concerning Penn State. On one point I must disagree and bring to the attention of the student body that we are not fairly represented on our Athletic Board. Supervision, and promotion of the vast Penn State intercollegiate program is not handled by the Athletic Association, who's officers are. elected by the male students; but by the Ath letic Advisory Board. Student representation on this 15-man board is held to three students, the All-College president, the Athletic Association president and the Chairman of the Board of Publications. Since each student pays $9.00 a semester, 'is three of 15 decent representation? Is it even a fair representation? Now is a good time for a change, let's make one! —Bill Klisanin, Chairman, NSA Seniors, Warning! TO THE EDITOR: This letter is written to inform and warn any reader who may be in terested in securing a Penn State class ring. , Last October I ordered a class ring which was not delivered until April. The ring was - only a feeble imitation of a Penn State class ring, termed "official" in the advertisement which a jeweler mailed to various unsuspecting students during the fall months. Truly, the ring was of inferior quality, considering the price paid; yet, the jeweler would not cooperate' in correcting the many imperfections of the ring, much less accept its return for a refund. Since there is nothing that can be done legally, I am just "stuck." If I don't like it, it is simply too bad, for that is the" way that this firm carries on• its, business. Therefore, when any reader receives an ad vertisement from BANKES BROTHERS JEWELERS of Blocimsburg, Pa., it would be wise to consider carefully before dealing with this aggregation. And investigate before making any purchase from them so you won't be "taken" —as I was! From The Archives 15 YEARS AGO Sept. 18, 1936—The students favored Landon to Franklin D. Rosevelt on a straw vote con ducted by the Collegian during registration. The results showed Landon received 1.7 votes to everyone received byßoosevelt,_. • Dean Charles W. 'StOildard, head of the s School of Liberal Arts, stated that the new methell, that of lower division, "has come up to all our hope and dreams." Football coach, Bob Higgins, pitched his var sity • team against the freshman yearlings in a game at "New, Beaver ,Fkeld. -The,varsity..string mauled the yearlings. —Mary Krasnansky -E. N. Little Man On Campus . "Take Meyers for psychology, he lei his classes out early an' sometimes doesn't even come. Old Prof Thornton is so old he doesn't take roll in Engligh 111. Prof Baker just got married, so he won't be anxious to give outside assignments. that he'll have to grade----" . , It Says That horrible mass of broken pencils, -crumpled forms, and glassy-eyed registrants in Rec Hall , last week was tragic, but it provided more jokes and stories of frustration than the wartime Army physical exams. —Like the girl who put the wrong code number with a course, crossed it out and wrote it correctly on the next line and pre- sented her registration form at the desk, only to be told that corrections could not be- made: on the form and she would have • to drop-add. Five minutes ;Of pleading *and explaining that 'it would mean dropping and add ing the same course was to no avail until she started, to scream. At this the officials got together and decided that per haps it would be all right just this once. 1:: , .;1 A notice fr om the National Safety Council informs us that the millionth traffic death in the U.S. will occur (according to their sta tistics) during the corning month of December. Around here the boys are laying 8 to 5 that it will be on Pollock Road if we all don't get used to the new two-way traf fic and no parking rules. A man (or something) from Froth dropped in the. other day and borrowed some baby things from the wife. Said that he was going to use them for the next issue. We tried to get the con nection between Froth and babies (any kind), but had to give it • up. I guess we'll borrow a copy after it comes out if we want to find the link.
