Oliver Proposes
'Plan for Peace'
A "package deal for peace" was
outlined last night by Dr. Robert
T. Oliver, professor of speech and
an authority on Korean affairs at
a dinner meeting of the Council
of the League of Women Voters
at the Nittany Lion Inn.
Dr. Oliver's proposed package
for peace included five points: a
demand for Communist wi t
drawal 'in Korea; a declaration
that we have no enemies among
the peoples of the world; a pro
gram to make democracy advan
tageous to underdeveloped areas;
a "get tough" policy for our Allies
and ourselves to speed joint re
armament; and proposals to
strengthen the UN with a police
force, elimination of the veto, and
the admission of nations now ex
cluded.
By HELEN LUYBEN
spring when a group of 35 students visited
three-day trip sponsored by the Penn State
Christian Association, and the Ed
ucation and Political Science de
partments.
When one of the group bet Jos
eph Stratos he couldn't get into
the Greek Embassy, Stratos was
quick to take the bet., Stratos,
now a senior in pre-law, borrowed
a nickel from Prof. D. W. Russel,
of the Education department, to
phone the embassy.
That was at 4' p.m. At 7 p.m.
the entire group was passing
through the receiving line at the
embassy and meeting Dimitri
Lambros, the distinguished-look
ing Greek minister to the United
States.
"Funny thing about it," Stratos
said, "I never did give back that
nickel to Professor Russel."
Mr. Lambros and Stratos cor
responded often after that. Last
fall, when another group of stu
dents toured Washington, the
group was once again asked to
the embassy.
This time the invitation was for
a formal reception, as guests of
the Greek ambassador. "You
know, everything from soup to
nuts," Stratos explained.
In the meantime, Lambros had
learn e d of a boy in Athens,
Greece, who wanted very much
to come to America to school.
The boy will graduate from a
gymnastic (that's Greek for high
school) this year. Mr. Lambros
decided• that Penn State would be
just the place for him.
So. with his transcript trans
lated and entered at the College,
his room and roommate assigned,
John Economidies will enter Penn
State's School of Mineral Indus
tries this fall.
But the story doesn't stop there.
One good turn deserves another,
so the Penn State students in
vited Lambros to be their guest
here. Lambros and his wife ac
cepted readily.
Mr. Lambros recognized th e
friendly atmosphere at Penn
State immediately, according to
I Stratos. "John Will actually be
lost here," Lambros said when he
toured the West Dorms, refering
to the many doors and hallways.
The Greek minister seemed to
like the campus well enough, too.
For he remarked upon leaving,
"It would be nice to buy a little
cabin and settle down here in this
lovely country."
'Hatters' --
(Continued from nage one)
he has been previously registered.
After registering, the hatters
will pass judges, who will tag
marchers chosen to be finalists.
Jane Stieber, co-chairman of the
Mad-Hatter's Day committee, said
that the parade will start prompt
ly at 12:30 p.m.
Final judging to be held in the
patio of Old Main will begin at
7:30 p.m. All persons who were
tagged by the judges at noontime
will compete in the finals.
If rain forces the contest in
doors, both the preliminaries and
the finals will be held in the Old
Main lounge, Miss Stieber said.
She explained that this will be
done only in the event of heavy
rain, and not for a drizzle.
In case of rain, contestants will
report at 12:30 p.m. to Old Main
lounge where they will register.
The evening events, both the
Mad-Hat finals an 'the starlight
dance, will be held in the Old
Main lounge if there is heavy
rain. Procedure for the judging
will be similar to that of the pre
liminaries.
Harry Cover will emcee the
Mad-Hat finals. Judges will be
Mrs. Anne Free, assistant profes
sor of home-bommunity relation
ships; Jack Harper, owner of
Jack Harper's menswear shop; and
David Stone, decorator for Ethel
Meserve.
The preliminary contest will be
judged by Harold Zipser, of
Schlows; Mrs. William Lepley,
wife of a professor of psychology;
Mrs. Helen Guthrie, instructor in
foods and nutrition; Dr. Joseph
Grosslight, assistant professor of
psychilogy; and Ernest Berkhaw,
of the Naval Ordnance Research
laboratory.
