Parking Conditions Are Easing up The announcement that better than 375 stu dent parking spaces have been completed or will be completed in the near future is good news for student drivers who have been forced to scurry about looking for someplace to park their cars. The two additional parking places will ease the problem, but they certainly will not solve it. For that reason additional parking space is needed urgently. How much space is needed is the crucial question. Before the College Board of Trustees can approve expenditures for additional parking space they must have exact and accurate figures on just_ how much space is needed. For that reason a poll was conducted earlier in the year to find out how many student, faculty and staff members use their cars on campus and how often. A great many students failed to cooperate in the student end of the poll, being under the impression that the poll was being conducted as a means of checking those students who - drive on campus. In an effort to obtain correct estimates of the number of student cars on campus, All- College Cabinet has authorized a - student conducted poll. The poll is not for regulatory purposes, but is rather to gather, information with which the need for additional parking space may be justified. '-The cooperation of all student drivers is needed if this poll is to be,a success. if addi tional parking areas are to be made available. Ring Era Ended With Loss of Louis Friday night we sat by our radio arid heard the final chapter of a great American era in the squared circle. Rocky Marciano. knocked out Joe Louis, the former heavyweight. champion of the world in the eighth round'of a scheduled ten round match. • The husky Negro from ,Detroii had dead panned his way to the most cherished" Crown in all ring history in 1937 and from there held an iron hand over all the big boys for over 11 years, defending his title more than - 30 times before 'freffring" in 1949: • But old Joe couldn't keep away 'from the big crowds—many say he was broke and had to fight in order to pay his debts—and the familiar blood-calls of the smoke-filled arenas. , ' After his retirement, Joe watched Walcott and Charles, two scrappers, but still' mediocre heavies, battle for his old crown. Soon after, he returned to the ring and fight fans could• see that the blast was gone from his short jabs and the power was gone from the very familiar ho6ks. His opponents were not the' big names in the game any longer. He fought exhibitions and occasional ten-rounders:. Although many Will claim the Louis era came to an end long ago, we .feel. i that Friday night - brought • the • old -'Brown Bomber" to the end of the line. When we hear his name mentioned now we'll be like/ the typical old timers and say, "Yes, "we‘ remember him—a great fighter, one of the best. and a real American." Key Game The football team will play one if its most important games of the season when• it travels to Lafayette, Ind. tonight to battle Purdue Saturday. The Boilermakers have an unimpressive one and four record but are in the Big Ten, enough to mark any team as better-than-average. The Boilermakers also have one of the best passers in the Midwest in junior-quarterback Dale Samuels. State's pass defense, which has • been shoddy this season, will be given another stern • test by Samuels. If Coach Rip Engle's team can jump this barrier they should go through the rest of the campaign undefeated. A decisive victory for the Lions would probably give them the needed encouragement to face the remaining schedule of Rutgeis, Syracuse, and Pitt. Thus, with a lift Saturday, the Nittanies could com pile a 7-2 mark, the best grid record since 1948. —Dave Colton - —Bob Fraser THE DAILY , COLLEGIAN, STAT.E-.coyApc.kifqNNSYLVVll4. Middle East Bases, Oil .Are Not Lost The .biggest threat to the Atlantic pact countries today is .not direct attack by 'Russia but the inability of NATO' countries to consoli date the Middle East. The eruption of a fierce nationalism in Egypt has already started talks of other Middle East nations throwing off the , colonial yoke. Sympathy for , the Egyptians was expressed from Morocco to • Indonesia. However, the falling out of the West and the Middle East is not as complete as' Russia would like to have it. While the Anglo-Egyptian relations are ex ceedingly tense at the moment, there may be a compromise available that will satisfy all. Seven we - Stern, powers, including Britain, the U.S., France, Turkey, New Zealand, Australia, and the Union of South Africa, are going ahead on a Middle Eastern defense plan. All the Arab countries and Israel will continue to be in formed of the proceedings. Furthermore, so far as can be ascertained, there are. Arab countries which hope for such a defensive link with the West. Aniong them are Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Iraq. Neither Syria or Jordan are entirely opposed to the plan. If the grim situation in Egypt can be ironed out without antagonizing the entire Moslem world, the West will win not only rich oil lands but invaluable military bases along the Mediterranean. Safety Valve-- Fly Trouble at Dinner TO THE EDITOR: Down Nittany way we have the usual troubles and gripes about the food service, but every once-in-awhile we find something really wrong. Now it's the fly! The dear fellow has invaded the cafeteria and takes particular delight in 'munching on some one's salad or dancing daintily from plate to plate. Now the fly isn't really a bad fellow at heart. It's just that his daily itinerary usually' includes •breakfast at the dairy barns, luncheon at the sewage disposal plant, a cleansing bath in someone's spittle, and then . . . oh yes . . . dinneit at Nittany . Commons. Since the fly is a friendly fellow, he usually associates with typhoid, dysentery, and other friendly germs. This is a dangerous situation and while flys are a local bother, hasn't the Food Department 2 heard of D.D.T. bombs? Get. Off the News Pages! , TO THE EDITOR: We, the' members of Nittany Dorm 44,' passed the following resolu tion in our meeting of October 16. We 'recognize the fine caliber' of work done on the Daily Collegian by its editor, Mary Krasnansky. While being thrilled by his daring exploits, in ,the , field of journalism we are also desirous of reading about the other• ' world shaking events; . collegiate •and national. There fore, we 'suggest' that more mace be allotted to these . aforementioned events. This idealistic state of journalism could be reached by limiting the, appearance of The Daily Collegian's illus trious• editor's name to five timpq in each issue. —Roger Lowen Ed.

Poor Man's Paradise Ry PAUL POORMAN • A. recently-announced government project is being undertaken to investigate another source of bewilderrrient to an 'already con f-tised democracy—love. Yes, true enough, the government is sub sidizing a research project headed by a 40-year-old Northwestern University professor to try and disCoirCk why men and women fall in lolie and why they choose the Mates tlieY - do. Young people who had previously doubted that anybody besides themselves understood their feel ings were probably right, but all• that is ,going to be changed.; If nobody else cares, the govern ment is enough concerned:' about the problem• of who falls ..for whom to set aside $12,000 for research, The university' professo who a incidentally ,is ,him s f married, will take up the torch of love and bear it untiringly baCkward in quest-of its source. An article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette wonders if •the professor is puzzled by his:Own marriage.

He's either thinking along those lines, or along $12,000 lines.

Where the A-Bomb may merely kill thousands at one blast, the love exploration may disrupt the entire' cycle of life, and lead to mass suicide that would } make atomic killings seem infinitesimal. For 'it is an established maxim that if you, take away everything errian has to live for, man does not live. And life without love is', life without living, from our inexperienced viewpoint. To say that the causes of love would not be ohnterest to every one `would be a careless fallacy. But say we go ahead and actually deterinine the basic germ of the disease. Let's, stop a Minute and consider . : After we've got it, what do We haVe? Will eve have the objective assortment of facts that brought the downfall of kissing? Science ,said that kissing was up 'sanitary, so everyone stopped kissing. .If. love was proven un healthy, would , everyone stop loving? If - the government and the professor want to dabble in things over their heads, all right. But keep the findings •secre4 After all, when you're young, you don't really care what causes • the• damn stuff; you're just glad something does.
