At the same time the Nittany gridiron coach called for "a little integrity in football." There are ways to beat any game, Engle said• yesterday,• and the shrewd operator can get away with cutting corners. All that proves, he said, is that the game must have a little honesty of the coaches and institutions. "We will adhere not only to the letter of the rule, but to the spirit as well," Engle said. He con tinued, "if we hold a meeting in doors because of the bad weather, we will count it as one of our 20• sessions." While backing the NCAA pro posal, Engle did, however, find room for disagreement with the decision of the executive com mittee of the American Council of Education to eliminate all bowl games'.

PRICE FIVE CENTS ges ised Hat Council Gives Okay To Program By JAKE HIGHTON Hat Society Council became the second c am pus organization to stamp approval on the proposed customs amendment to the All- College Constitution last night. The council unanimously ap proved the new customs plan passed last week by Tribunal. Marvin Krasnansky, hat society president, presented to the coun cil• the preliminary draft for the joint Freshman Customs Board with the explanation that the pro posals were to change custom plans, but .not through rules so much as by enforcement. As stated in th e amendment draft, Freshman Custom Board's -aim will be to "establish, enforce, in terpret, and be responsible for the conduct of the freshman customs program of All-College Cabinet." Th e proposed amendment, as approved by Tribunal earlier and now Hat Society Council, is a plan whereby the Freshman Customs Board will be a joint affair co ordinating both men and women''; custom regulations into a unified setup. The joint board, which would be set up to hear all freshman violations, is to consist bf four upperclassmen and f our upper classwomen with the chairman of Tribunal and the chairman of Judicial serving as co-chairmen.

The magazine, established in 1950, was published for the first time in May of last year. The book was the first large publi cation printed by the offset litho graphy method at Penn State. The magazine has been delayed in its second printing, Fenton said, because of financial diffi culties. "Although the first Inkling was received enthusiastically and was more than a financial success, we wanted to be sure that the road was completely cleared of any possibility of business failure. "Previously there have been three literary magazines at Penn State and all of them have been forced to suspend publication. We want to make no mistakes with the Inkling," he said. All-College Cabinet made a $6OO loan to the Inkling in 1950 in an effort to get the new maga zine started. At that time, the money was paid to the creditors of one of the former failures to establish credit for the new book. In offset production, which will be handled by students, a' large crew is needed. Students who are interested in learning the process or helping in the production of Inkling will be welcomed, the editor said. Interested persons may contact Milton Bernstein at 6876. -
