Parking Solution
Only Temporary
While the vast majority of students will find
it impossible to drive to classes when the new
parking plan goes into effect, the simple math
ematics of the problem left no other solution
than the one taken by the all-College parking
committee.
With approximately 4000 cars being used by
faculty, staff, and students and only 2500
parking spaces available, the committee had
to take same measures to ease the campus
parking problem.
Barring the campus from use by student
drivers, with the exception of commuting stu
dents and the physically handicapped, is part of
the solution. Of the 2500 spaces on campus,
students will still be getting approximately
1000 for parking in the Nittany-Pollock area
and for the. commuters.
Faculty parking will also be cut under the
program. With 1900 staff members indicating
that they park on campus, some 400 will have
to change their commuting habits to and from
campus since there will be only 1500 spaces
for •them.
Students living within the borough limits,
under the committee's plan, will not be al
lowed to drive on campus. If the estimates of
needed parking space prove to be inaccurate,
however, the line within which students are
not allowed to drive on campus will be brought
closer to campus.
The plan is not inflexible, and is essentially
temporary, until such time as the funds and
space are available for additional parking lots.
The mass of student drivers, however,
hopes that the temporary parking plan is not
as tempOrary as the "temporary" classroom
buildings or the "temporary" engineering
•
buildings.
Funds, Like Chapel,
Non-Sectarian
With the allocation of the Chapel collection
funds to be decided by a student-faculty com
mittee in the near future, several factors should
be taken into consideration in weighing the
answer to the problem.
Those who would favor the funds going
tow a rd some new "missionary" program
should keep in mind the non-sectarian nature
of the Chapel. The Chapel is not restricted to
members of one religion, being attended by
Jews as well as Christians, with speakers also
representing the Judeo-Christian traditions.
Another factor in the non-sectarian atmo
sphere of the Chapel . is Penn State's standing
as a state institution, maintained and supported
by the taxpayers of all faiths. Supporting the
missionary work of one faith would seem some
what out of line with the traditional non-sec
tarian outlook of a state institution.
The contribution of the $4500 annually col
lected in Chapel toward another missionary pro
ject or for the support of a Penn-State-in-you
take-your-choice seems to us to be a mere
pittance in light of government and other pub
lic and semi-public efforts to aid those less
fortunate peoples in Europe and Asia:
The ideal project for the Chapel funds would
be the construction of a chapel, a small build
ing for private worship and meditation, a place
for students and faculty members to spend the
few spare moments of the crowded day in
thought and reflection.
Penn State needs such a chapel and the
Chapel collection could serve no better pur
pose.

When are we going to face the reality of sex

West Should Form
Middle. East Policy
Since things have quieted down for the mo
ment in Egypt, Tunisia, and other Middle East
ern areas, it might be well for the Western
nations interested in those areas to take stock
in the situation and formulate a policy for fu
ture action.
Westerners have a precarious foothold in
these areas seething with nationalism, and the
Western world has been resisting the national
ism in an effort to keep its extensive posses
sions safe from harm.
But this resistance has only added fuel to
the nationalistic flames, and the very end
that the Western world hopes to avert is being
made more inevitable by this' obstruction.
To keep these Middle Eastern areas in the
Western orbit means that the Anglo-Americans
and their cohorts are going to have to recog
nize the desire for nationalism in these areas.
and even encourage it.
Many times an enemy can be brought 'to
friendly terms by friendship and help rather
than by opposition. India is a case in point.
The British have had relatively little trouble
with their former colony since India was made
an independent dominion several years ago.
If the Western world doesn't come up with
a solution, and we suggest a solution based
on tolerance and help, the Middle East will
very likely create a burning gash across the
waist of the world, making impossible a Mid
dle East NATO setup and probably involving
Anglo-American troops in another "police
action."
This distressing situation is already grave,
but is not completely out of hand. The U.S. and
her allies should act intelligently now and re
member that 150 years ago the United States
was locked in nationalistic combat with a for
eign power—and the U.S. was successful in
reaching its nationalistic aims. Nationalism is
a force which cannot be bottled.
Safety Valve
Close Cannot Add to Cultural
Picture of Penn State Life
• TO THE EDITOR: I wish to protest the en
gagement of Upton Close as a Community
Forum speaker.
Mr. Close has been well known, for years,
as being anti-Semitic. I, therefore, feel that Mr.
Close cannot add anything constructive to the
cultural life of the college.
As far as the issue of free speech is con
cerned, I don't believe that a well known com
munist sympathizer would be engaged by the
Community Forum. By the same token, why
engage a well known hatemonger and bigot?
After all, both communists and fascists are
basically striving for the same goal—the de
struction of our democraCy.
I should also like to note an interesting fact
about Mr. Close's broadcasting activities. He
was banned from the air by two major Ameri
can networks between 1944 and 1948, due to
F.C.C. pressure. Nevertheless, he continued his
hate-mongering attack over a Mexican station.
As one who was not born in the United States,
and who has seen both communists and fascists
in operation, I can only say that we are making
a terrible mistake in bringing this rabble
rouser to the campus.

Little Man On Campus 4 By Bibler
0 CI 4
"OK! OK! Come in my office and we'll discuss that last test."
One facet of campus journalism is quite rewarding to the student
who can restrain his temper long enough to profit by it. This is the
broad area of human nature demonstrated by the man-things he
sets out to interview.
The complete range of human emotion can be scanned by a
reporter in a reasonably full week of activity. From fear the most
abject to pomosity the most pom
pous, a seven-day quota of inter
views is an unsurpassable tour
through the human zoo,
At the infra-red end of the
spectrum is the species known
by the latin term of Mouse. He
is the lad who will sometimes,
if pressed, venture the opinion
that it's daylight at high noon--
but certainly not for publica
tion. His normal reply to any
query more controversial than
who was the first President is,
"No comment—but don't quote
me."
Just a little more garrulous is
the Mouse Prime, or Mouse-who
c a n-talk-because - he's-perfectly
safe. This type is peculiar to cam
pus journalism. He'll give you his
opinion on infant sexuality, anim
ism, and Mother Russia, at great
length and with notable inaccur
acy, and will close his remarks
with "that's off the record, of
course." It is here that the Prime
factor emerges. M-one knows he's
in a position to make this stick
because—here's the beauty of it—
he's your prof for Doughnut Dunk
ing 318, as both of you have been
perfectly aware since the begin
ning of the pre-doomed-interview.
Occupying a center-of-the road
position, somewhere around the
bright green of the spectrum, is
the Dolt, or Ass. He'll tell you
any thing he knows—but he
doesn't know anything worth tell
ing. He is the dividing line be
tween those you go after and
those who come after you. The
Dolt is quite eager to put before
'you the fruits of long consider-.
ation, grounded in utterly false
premises and developed through

exhaustive, trains of absolute il
logic. He is quite hurt when you
don't pr in t his opinions—but
never quite so hurt that he won't
come back the very next day
with a great deal more to say on
the same or an even less im
portant subject.
Leaning into the - blue on the
continuum is the Neo-Dolt, or
Authoritative Ass. This is the Dolt
with a Specialty. He thinks An
nam is a kind of smoked herring,
and knows Henri Bonnet as a
Parisian chap e a u, but on his
Specialty, he is the final authority.
You avoid this boy for 51
weeks and six days out of the
year, but on that one remain
ing day, something comes up
which bears, ever so faintly, on
his Specialty. It may be weav
ing techniques in ancient Ur,-
it may be probabilities of a fa
vorable balance of trade for
Uruguay in 1955, but this is the
man to consult. The drawback
is that no matter what phase
of the, Specialty you consult
him on, the Neo will
. lay before
you his entire store of know
ledge—and he's written five
books and innumerable' papers.
Take your lunch when you go
to consult the Neo-Dolt.
The ultra violet of the spectrum
is the Old Newsman, the Man

in fact back in nineteen ought

parks -his good old derriere in

and shoots off his good old mouth
