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.

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.

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. Speaking from our
own inexperienced viewpoint,.
we'd say that the professor is
just lapsing , into 'the 'state:alr •
men find themselvei in-Once in• -

otheri, just whatevevmadethim,

or what' he ever' saw in her.
He's either thinking along
those lines, or along $12,000
lines.
The mechanics of
,the system
are riot explained, but from for
mer government ventures in t o
science, we assume they will be
coldly objective and horribly
scientific. It doesn't take much to

ing.
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.
When you hit forty, that's time
enough to stop and investigate.
Right now, who cares?
