Penn State
Represented
On USNSA
Penn State, through a perma
nent committee of All-College
Cabinet, is a member of the Unit
ed States National Student Asso
ciation, an organization represent
ing college students through their
student governments.
NSA operates on three levels—
local, regional, and national.
James Plyler is chairman of the
local chapter. William Klisanin,
former chairman of the College
chapter, last year served as pres
ident of the Pennsylvania region.
There are 24 geographical regions
in the country.
Discuss Educational Crisis
The local group organized the
Campus Chest with its combined
charities plan, circulated a peti
tion to legalize absentee voting in
Pennsylvania, and secured- re
duced train rates for students and
better transportation to and from
the College at vacation time.
Last month NS A held its fifth
annual National Student Congress
at Indiana University, Blooming
ton, Ind. John Laubach, All-Col
lege president, Plyler, and Kli
sanin represented the College.
Taking the theme “The Student
and the Crisis in Education,” the
congress discussed universal mili
tary training, selective service
policy, intercollegiate athletics,
the 18-year-old vote, and interna
tional student relations. A four
day college newspaper editors’
conference and a student body
presidents’ conference preceded
the congress.
The College was the site of the
second annual student govern
ment clinic, sponsored by NS A
last April. More than 100 dele
gates representing 25 Pennsyl
vania colleges and universities
discussed topics including pub

Red Rose Named
In Ikes Honor
Presented to Wife
A small boost to Dwight D.
Eisenhower’s campaign for the
Presidency has come in the form
of a rose named in his honor and
presented to his wife by Mrs.
James H. Duff, wife of Pennsyl
vania’s senator.
According to a communique
from the Charles Blum Adver
tising Corp., Mrs. Duff presented
a bouquet of the variety of Amer
ican Beauty red roses to Mrs.
Eisenhower before the Cciven
tion Hall rally in Philadelphia.
The announcement stated that
the flower “is one of. the few
great roses American in origin.”
It is claimed that the red rose
came to the Western World when
Thibaut, Count of Brie and of
Champagne, returned from a cru
sade in Syria, bringing with him
some of the flowers. The an
nouncement cites the parallel
with the general’s noted “Cru
sade in Europe.”
Three national commissions:—
educational, student, and interna
tional—administer the NSA pro
grams. The international affairs
group promotes cultural exchange
through its delegates on the Unit
ed States commission in UNESCO,
the World Student Service Fund,
and placement of exchange and
displaced person students in this
country.
The educational affairs commis
sion is concerned with the educa
tional process and legislation af
fecting education, student eco
nomic welfare, and discrimina
tion.
Gray-Hatted Coeds
Assist Newcomers
Have you noticed a sudden rash of gray hats on campus? The
busy coeds under those hats are members of Cwens and Chimes,
sophomore and junior women’s activities honoraries.
A total of 40 members of Cwens and Chimes and presidents of
important women’s organizations moved back to the College, Sat
urday to help with the orientation program for new women students.
Counselors themselves had a
training period when they met
last spring with Patricia Jo
Thompson, assistant to the dean
of women, to discuss plans and
procedure.
Since their arrival, the new
comers’ helpers have given in
structions for registration, helped
hostess parties in women’s dormi
tories, and given skits explaining
functions of the Women’s Student
Government Association and so
rority and independent groups.
Other duties include distribu
ting literature for various campus
organizations, aiding with regis
tration at Recreation Hall this
week, and assisting at orientation
programs such as the Sing in
Schwab Auditorium and the
Women’s Recreation Association
open house at White Hall today.
New women students have been
broken up into discussion group.s
of from 15 to 18 students with
each group headed by a member
of the orientation crew. The
groups will meet for question-and
answer sessions on campus mat
ters for the next three or four
weeks.
According to Miss Thompson,
who has been coordinating the
week’s activities for women, this
year’s crew has been “wonderful,
and so easy to work with.”
