Budget Cut
Is Possible
HARRISBURG, Oct. 30—(iP)—
President Milton S. Eisenhower
said today the federal govern
ment 'could cut its budget by
more than eight billion dollars
without doing serious harm to its
functions.
'He added the money saved in
this way could then be used to
overcome what he termed "glar
ing shortcomings in our educa
tional system."
President Eisenhower Made
the statements in an address be
fore the 43rd annual congress of
the state's parent-teachers.
Cost Less Than $4 Billion
"The public cost of education
was less than four billion dollars
in 1950. We could cut twice that)
much from the federal budget'
without doing seriousarm to
our domestic economy, our mili
tary preparation, or our aid to
other countries," President Eis
enhower explained.
He cited the shortcomings as a
shortage of elementary teachers,
lack of space to accommodate
three million more pupils, low
salaries for teachers, and inade
quate classroooms.
These 'shortages, he said, can
only be cured "by a new awak
ening of education in support of
the new and exp'anded public
schools which must come."
Discriminating Judgement
President Eisenhower said -he
wasn't worried "about our ability
to pay- for what we know is
necessary for our survival as a'
nation. What is required is dis

Balloting Light
During Ist Day
Few ballots were cast yesterday during the first day of voting
for seven of the eight student councils, according to Edward Shan
ken, p - resident 'of the Inter-Student Council Board.
Two school councils, physical education and mineral industries,
have canceled their election dates because too few nominations
were made.
The Education School Council is holding an informal balloting
because it has only two nomin
ations for two vacancies.
Shanken said "The Inter-Stu
dent Council Board acts only as
a coordinator with the various
councils and has no jurisdiction
over these councils about chang
ing its dates for eleCtion.
"The various council changes
that were made are all right with
me," he said.
Freshmen Unorganized
"Freshmen on campus are un
organized," Shanken continued,
"and because of this •the councils
could not get ;the necessary co
operation to carry the erections
on the dates set—yesterday and
today.
"Therefore, the council presi
dents•were forced to change their
plans," he said.
All council presidents whose
elections were taking place said.
that ballots were coming in
slowly.
Only 30 votes were counted of
the 700 freshmen in the Liberal
Arts School, Shanken, president
of the LA Student Council, an
nounced.
Education to Appoint
"Every freshman and sopho
more who is eligible to vote
should go to the polls," Shanken
said. "This is the closest contact
that freshmen and sophomores
have 'with All-College Cabinet—
the highest student government
body on campus."
Ralph Egolf, president of the
education coun c i 1, announced.
that the School of Education will
appoint its representatives in
stead of having then elected at
the polls.
The reason for this is that only
two nominations have been made
for the two vacancies in the
council.
MI Elects Monday
Mineral Industries has canceled
its election until Monday because
of the few -nominations made,
Millard Rehburg, president of the
Mineral. ndustries Student Coun
cil, announced yesterday.
Elections for the MI council
will take place in Dean Edward
Steidle's lecture class from - 4 to
5 p.m. in 10 Sparks.
The physical education elec
tions have been moved to Thurs
day because of late nominations
William Mihalich, president of the
physical education council, said.
Yesterday's election r et ur us
we're not available in the other
schools:
whether you are • drugged or
whether your mind just ceases to
function 'normally."
He also said that the testimony
he gave in confession covered 50
typewritten pages and that there
wa's "some truth in it."
- -
About a month later, however,
while speaking before the Na
tional Press Club in Washington,
he cleared, up this statement, say
ing he "sought to use irony" and
that the only truths in the con
fession were his name, birthplace,
and employer's, name. The rest,

Chest Drive
Moves into
Third Day
The two-week Campus Chest
solicitation drive moved into its
third day yesterday.
The drive concentrates nine
charities into one drive for stu
dent contributions. The Chest
drive is the only solicitation drive
on campus each year. This year's
goal is $12,000.
William Klisanin, drive chair
man, yesterday urged students
to consider the drive in its nine
components, each of which will
benefit from the drive.
He said that if students con
sider they are giving to nine
groups rather than just one, and
if they consider the work done
by these groups, they will realize
the drive as one worthy of heavy
student support.
All Chest donations under $1
must be made in cash, Klisanin
said, because the machines that
compile pledges onto semester
fees cannot handle an amount
below $l.
He also reminded eighth sem
