FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
STATE COLLEGE, PA., SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 3, 1951
Tennis, Anyone?
TWO FRESHMAN WOMEN, Elaine Rofey (left) arid Pennie Miller
(right) -show their contempt for yesterday's snow flurries by openly
flaunting tennis togs in the weatherman's face. The girls were only
two 'of some 10,000 students who flinched under winter's- first icy
breath in the sub-freezing weather. The girls reported a"real cool"
game of tennis.
First Snow Greeted
With Fortitude Here
The first snow to amount to anything at all this year began fall
ing yesterday 'miming at 6:55 in an officially recorded freezing at
mosphere, but College students, accustomed to the draft and high
fees, took the first signs of winter with characteristic resignation.
Chief •leaders of student resistance to the weather were, oddly
their enthusiasm or hairdos,
women walked placidly to and
from class amid bevies of scurry
ing males excitedly holding coats
over their heads, and ruhning
'wildly.

By PAUL POORMAN
The crowning touch of female
disdain, however, seemed to be
the members of several women's
physical education classes who
were stubbornly continuing,to
learn the fundamentals of tennis,
snow or no. Many were seen trip
ping along with tennis racquets
tucked under their arms, and
protected from their environ
ment by nothing more than
scanty gym suits and flopping
raincoats.
Combined Radioactivity
The day MAY have been, in the
words of the poet, cold and dark
and dreary, but winter was only
flexing its muscles Only .1 inches
of snow actually troubled itself
to hang around long enough to be
measured, and the temperature

Coeds Against
Vote Release
Almost 60 percent of the wom
en polled by the Women's Stu
de n t Government Association
voted againSt releasing WSGA
election figures.
. Of the 1659 women polled, 1154
opposed the release, 642 favored
it, and 163 were indifferent.
The ,poll was conducted by
dormitory unit presidents. No at
tempt was made ,to poll town
women. Of the total number poll
ed, 58.7 percent women voted
against releasing the figures.
The poll was taken to enable
WSGA, Women's Recreation As
sociation', and Leonides leaders
to know how their members feel
regarding publication of election
returns.,
A proposed amendment to the
All-College • Constitution - would
require the s e organizations as,
well as other College groups to ,
release their 'figures. The pro
posed amendment .has been
tabled, but is expected to be
brought up for further consider
ation .in. the- near , future.-
New Blood
600 Pints;
Drive Extended
Penn . State's blood drive goal has been raised to 600 pist9
'arid the drive will be extended until Thurdday, Millard Rehburg,
drive chairman, *said yesterday. The previous goal was 400 pledges
and the drive was to t close Monday ;
Rehburg also said the Red Crosi bloodmobile unit will be at
the TUB three days, Nov. 13 to
15, instead of only two, to secure
the contributions
By yesteiday afternoon, 248
pledges had been received by the
cabinet Committee conducting the
drive. Beaver House heads the
list of individual contributors
with 31. There are 35 men in the
house. Sigma Pi has 26 pledged.
Only 15 women students had
pledged blood to the drive by
Thursday evening.
Committee heads were optimis
tic on potential pledging to the
drive because of the large 'limber
of forms that have been taken
out. They urged immediate. re
turn of pledge forms to 112 Old
Main so that scheduling for do
nations may be handled.
Drive leaders, although optimis
tic, were quick to emphasize that
the goal' of 600 is low in a school
of over 10,000 students. They felt
the goal should be dwarfed by the
number of pledges, pointing out
that it was a minimum, not
maximum.
Pledge forms may be secured
at the Student Union desk in Old
Main, the TUB, West Dorm main
lounge, women's dormitories, and

Officials
Disappointed
With Drive
Campus Chest officials said
yesterday that although about
$l5OO have been turned in by
solicitors according to the sec
ond returns of the drive, response
is still disappointing.
William Klisanin, drive chair
man, said returns were "very,
very poor. He said many solici
tors were failing to turn in their
receipts fast enough and he urged,
all solicitors to make returns im
mediately to the Penn ,State Chris
tian Association office, 304 Old
Main.
"It seems that students are
failing to recognize the impor
tance of the many charities in
cluded in the drive," he said.
"This drive will enable us to
serve nine worthy groups at one
time.
Klisanin •said some of the fault
may lie in a lethargic attitude
on the part of some solicitors.
He said that perhaps many stu
dents who,w is h to. contribute.
have not been contacted yet by
solicitors.
The chest will end its two-week
