A. C. E. Proposals
Miss Real Evils
With the !recent disclosures of irregularities
in collegiate athletics there arose a demand
that college , and university presidents step in
to clean their own athletic houses.
The result of this demand was the forma
tion of a committee of ten college presidents,
headed by Michigan State's John Hannah. The
committee met, drew up its proposals, and
submitted them to the executive committee
of the American Council of Education. The
proposals were approved by the executive
committee with but minor changes.
The presidents have stepped into the athletic
field—a much needed move—but we wonder if
the proposals they have made will solve the
problems of college athletics. The National Col
legiate Athletic Association apparently does not
think so. .
While the A.C.E. proposals have their merits,
the plan of. the presidents also has its weak
nesses, shortcomings, and blind spots. Where
they eliminate some evils, they also create some
new ones. In many places the plan is downright
impractical. In other places it discriminates
against the athlete much as some college prac
tices made the athlete the special character.
One of the major proposals of the A.C.E. is
that spring practice be eliminated in football.
Quite counter to this is the N.C.A.A. ruling
that spring drills be limited to 20 within a 30-
day period.
It would seem that the A.C.E. is putting the
cart before the horse in dealing with the
spring practice problem. If a college enrolls
only those athletes who are legitimately
scholastically eligible, 20 days of football prac
tice in the spring will not hurt the student's
academic standing.
But the A.C.E. counters with provisions that
there shall be no outright athletic scholarships
and that a student shall make the normal pro
gress toward a degree each year he is in college.
The latter of these is sound enough, but the
former has come in for some caustic criticism
from people in athletics. And perhaps justly so.
All scholarships will be based on academic
ability and economic need, under the A.C.E.
proposals. In the minds of many athletic leaders
such a proposal will only serve to further en
trench the heavily endowed institutions who
have enough funds to provide scholarships for
"students" and additional funds to provide
scholarships for "student athletes." Such a pro
posal also makes it possible for these heavily
endowed institutions to continue giving full
scholarships to athletes, while the legitimate
"student" scholarships cover only part of the
student's expenses. The student-athlete—aca
demically qualified —is getting room, board,
books, and tuition, not because his academic
ability merits a full scholarship but rather be
cause he is an athlete.
In effect, the proposal of the A.C.E. declares
there is no value in intercollegiate athletics
worthy of encouraging by means of a scholar
ship.
We have no sympathy for the outright ath
letic scholarship. We have no sympathy for
enrolling a student in college simply because
he can throw a football 50 yards or run a
hundred yards in 9.5 seconds. We advocate
the athletic scholarship for the athlete who .
meets the normal academic requirements of
the college.
We believe that athletics have a value and
that where a student is academically qualified
for college work, he should be eligible for the
athletic scholarship. We believe that the ath
letic scholarship is not the evil. We believe that
the evil lies in the abuse made of the athletic
scholarship by many colleges.
-
We do not believe the A.C.E. action has done
much to get to the core of the evil.

Responsibility Lies
With Students Too
The current squabble in All-College Cabinet
over the pending constitutional amendment re
garding • the changing of student fe es keeps
bringing up one question, either indirectly or
directly. That is, whether cabinet is the repre
sentative student body it is supposed to be.
The question arises because of the still raging
controversy over the Student Union fee passed
three semesters ago.
Everyone will 'agr'ee that a Student Union
building will , be a• great asset to Penn State
and that if we are to have one, it will have
to be financed by the students themselves.
But some question whether the building will
`really benefit all students. Others say that
if the fee to provide the building keeps even
one person from getting a college education,
then the building is not worthwhile.
As we see it, the only thing members of
cabinet can be charged with is sometimes look
ing at certain issues with the College rather
than the student in mind. This may not be
particularly dangerous, but it does mean that
the people on cabinet are not living up to their
duty to the students.
One way, perhaps the, only Way, to curb -thil
is for' the students to contact their representa
tives on cabinet when an important issue comes
up to make their views known. Each student
is represented on cabinet , in at least four ways:
through his class president, the elected All-
College officers, his school council president,
and th e president of Leonides, Panhellenic
Council, Association of Independent Men, or the
Interfraternity Council.
Our cabinet representatives are not mind
readers, and it is obvious they can't know how
we feel on matters unless we tell them. It would•
be wise for students to remember that they have
a duty to perform, too. They must realize they
can't just sit back and expect cabinet to carry
on alone. If they do, they shouldn't complain
when some proposal passes that they don't like.

Phone Record Set
LOS ANGELES—(IP)---A 17-year-old girl and
her boy friend, both unidentified, have estab
lished what is believed to be a new world en
durance record for a romantic telephone con
versation.
The pert blonde, who refused to give re
porters her name, entered a telephone booth at
8 o'clock yesterday morning. She talked with
her boy friend until 3:30 p.m.—seven hours and
30 minutes.
The cost? One nickel.
And they want to cut the time limit down
an hour here on campus.

"Of course I'm not educated—l spend all my time going to class!"
Actress Laments
Movies' 'Old Men'
ROME—(JP)—Some of Hollywood's top notch actors are too old
to make love, Sylvana Pampanini, one of Italy's popular actresses,
maintains.
In her book, these include such shining stars as Clark Gable,
Charles' Boyer, Gary Cooper, Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy,
Paul Muni, and Ronald Coleman.
"They were all born more than a half century ago," she:said.
"It's ridiculous to see a man, old
enough to be your grandfather,
playing an ardent lover.
"The violent, passionate kind
of love that melts a woman's
resistance looks more sincere
when it involves a young man.
The scene has more fire."
The sultry 27-year-old actress,
who is making a film called "The
Woman Who Invented Lo v e,"
charged that "these old men,
stripped of their movie glamor,
would seem pitiful in the arms
of- a woman."
"There's a difference in being
kissed-by a young man and .by an
old man," she went on. "When a
young man kisses, you know
you've been kissed."
As proof, she exhibited livid
marks on her arms, left there
by FiOssano Brazzi, handsome '
co-star in the picture, after he
kissed her in a -scene.
"He wasn't _ fooling when he
kissed me," - said Syliiana. "An
older man wouldn't
.have the
the strength to hold you 'so tight
'Hungry Kiss...
. .
A' CRITIC of Hollywood lovers, Italian actress Sylvana Pampanini
demonstrates one style of kiss from her repertoire; with Rosanno
Brazzi. She calls it the "Hungry Kiss" and says it should satisfy
the average man's appetite.

"Maybe I was a little too rough,"
said Brazzi, 'who formerly was
Italy's middleweight — l3 o x'i'n g
champion.
"No! no! no!" she protested.
"You were perfect." ,
Then she came back to. -her
thesis.
" The last • thing a woman"
should see before she closes her
eyes to enjoy a kiss is the man .
approaching her with eyes half
closed, lips half parted in a,coii-•'
vincing. manner—as 'though -he•
meant what he was going to'dot
"Imagine an - old man's 'face ap
proaching a girl like ,that. Why
she'd bust out laughing right in
his face: No, Hollywood needs a
bunch of new lovers—young arid
Virile, in the prime of their youth,
not men who were born in: the
last century."
She shuddered: '
- "Why it's indecent b eing
kissed by an old man.'"
