Four to Debate
In Vermont
Forensic Meet
Four members of the men's de
bate squad will leave tomorrow
for two days of competition in the
University . of Vermont, annual
forensic tournament at Burling
ton, Vt.
The tournament is the first ma
jor debate event of the season for
the College team, and results
should indicate the squad's
strength this season, Jay Headly,
Manager, said. Approximately •40
colleges and universities from the
eastern- district will be represent
ed at the meet.
Representing the squad will be
Benjamin Sinclair and Dav i d•
Swanson, who will debate affir
matively. Thomas Dur e k and
Richard Kirschner will uphold the
negative side of the question.
They will debate the national
intercollegiate top i c, Resolved:
That the Congress of the U.S.
should enact a compulsory fair
employment practices' law.
In last year's tournament the
Penn State team, composed of
David Lewis, Robert Alderdice,
Clair George and Mark Unger,
placed fourth. The 1950 squad
took second place.
Sale of Tickets to End
For Engineers' Dinner
The sale of tickets for a "get
acquainted" dinner sponsored by
the Institute of Radio Engineers
and the American Institute of
Electrical Enginers will end to
morrow.
Tickets, priced at $1.25, may be
purchased from Saul Glasser at
the Ordnance Research Labora
tory and John Wax-field in the
Electrical Engineering depart
ment.
The dinner will be held Tues
day at the Autoport Restaurant.
Pitt IFC suggestion. The bucket
and its tradition will be inaugu
rated at a pre-Pitt game ceremony
Saturday.
The IFC's will purchase the
bucket and exchange it every
year. The bucket will reside and
be on display at the school win
ning the annual Pitt-Penn State
football game.
Small, metal plaques will be
placed on the bucket each year,
listing the date, the winning
school, and the score of the game.
In the event of a Penn State vic
tory in any of the games, the
bucket will probably be displayed
in a trophy case in Recreation
Hall, IFC President, Arthur Ros
feld said.
This new custom will initiate
a' tradition similar to the one
existing between the Universities
lof Michigan and Minnesota where
the winner of their game is pre
sented with a brbwn jug.
The bucket, Rosfeld said, will
show the clean rivalry and co
operation existing between both
schools. It should become a great
tradition, he added, since the ri
valry is so keen. Rivalry betweeh
the schools dates back 52 years.
A bucket was chosen, Rosfeld
explained, to symbolize the hard
coal school, Pitt, and the soft coal
school, Penn State.
Pitt's Panthers beat the Nittany
Lions last year, 13-7. The last
State win was in ,1950 when the
Lions edged by, 21-20. As the
record now stands, State has won
19, lost 30, and tied two.
Friday Is Deadline
For MI LaVie Photos .
Mineral Industries seniors may
have their pictures taken for the
1953 LaVie until Friday at the
Penn State Photo Shop.
Men are asked to wear suits,
white shirts, and ties. Women are
requested to wear white or plain
colors.
Foreign Student Directory
Resembles UN Roll Call
By HELEN LUYBEN
It's not a roll call of movie ac
tors, breeds of dogs, or colors of
the rainbow that you find listed
in a special student directory pub
lished by the College. Instead this
directory reads like a roll call of
the United Nations General As- 1
sembly.
It's the foreign student direc
tory for the fall semester, and
with the exception of the 134 stu
dents whose names are listed in
it, very few Penn Staters know it
exists.
This unique directory lists stu
dents on Penn State's rolls from
51 foreign countries. Canada, Ger
many and India triple-tie for first
Place with 11 students each. the
largest number enrolled from any
one country.
China ranks next with eight
students; Japan, six; England,
five; Colombia, Philippines, Nor
way, Finland, Egypt and Israel,
four.
Bolivia, Turkey and Italy have
three students each on campus.
Austria, Australia, Brazil, Burma,
Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Greece,
Iraq, Korea, Netherlands, Sweden,
Switzerland and Thailand have
two students enrolled. Lone a rep
resentatives from Belgium, Chile,
Dutch West Indies, France, Guate
mala, Hungary, Indonesia, Iran,
Jamaica, Lithuania, Malaya, Mex
ico, Pakistan, Panama, Peru, Pol
and, Portugal, Trans-Jordan, Ven
ezuela, Vietnam, Union of South
Africa and Uruguay make up the
remainder of the 134 students.
It wouldn't be safe to guess the
male-female ratio, going strictly
by a rundoWn through Christian
names in a foreign student direc
tory. Instead of John and Mary
one finds Gio, Jaime, Mohey and
Yusuf, names which just don't
hint gender.
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE comm.= PENNSYLVANIA
'Driver Put
On Probation
By Tribunal
Tribunal placed ,a student driv
er on probation rast night fo r
parking a car in the wrong lot
without a permit sticker showing.
The driver pleaded guilty to his
second offense before the men's
judiciary committee and •w as
fined $2. He will have to report
at the next two meetings of Tri
bunal. If any other violations are
incurred during the probation
period the case will be referred to
the dean of men's office for dis
ciplinary action.
Tribunal heard 33 cases dealing
with infractions of campus park
ing regulations. A total of $2l in
fines was collected. Six $1 sus
pended fines were issued and sev
en cases were dismissed with a
warning by Richard Rau. acting
chairman.
One student charged with ille
gal parking on the street next to
Thompson Hall protested his bat
tery was dead and he could not
move_the car. He appeared for a
second violation before Tribune'
The case was dismissed but a $:
suspended fine from his first vi
olation was recalled.
A $1 suspended fine was levied
on a student who parked his car
in the service drive behind Sim
mons while he worked in the
dining hall. A dietitian gave him
permission to park there. Rau re
minded the driver that parking
permission is granted only by the
Campus Patrol and even though
service drives are not posted they
are no-parking areas for students
at all times.
A recommendation will be sent
to the Campus Patrol to transfer
the parking area of a discharged
serviceman who is unable to walk
from his present area on Ag Hill
to his classes in Osmond an d
Freer. The student was fined $1
for illegal parking near his class.
Three cases were dismissed be-1
cause the cars reported for illegal I
parking actually had permits. The
owners alleged they had acquired
new cars since the original per
mits were issued and they had
not yet switched the permit stick
ers when they were
,reported.
An extensive search through the
directory produced only one
movie actor—Robert Taylor from
Jamaica. There's a Mr. Bolger on
campus from the Netherlands, but
his Christian name is Bouwe in
stead of Ray.
When, among the Joanchims,
SantosheS, Prodiptos, Tokunoskos,
and Giuseppes you come upon a
JOE, you just can't believe your
eyes, even though his surname is
Mijares and he's from Guatemala.
Little American words like
"soon" and "thorn" are combined
to become the foreign sounding
Soonthorn, which stuck in front,
of Sappapa fits right into Thia
land culture.
Traveling to the Orient, up
comes R.U.G. Rao from India, the
nearest thing to an advertisement
for carpets found in the directory.

been the one to- come up with
homogenized milk.
Mr. Belen is, however, enrolled
with 12 other foreign students in
industrial education (which leads
all other college curricula in for
eign student enrollment.) The
School of Education seems to have
the majority of foreign students
with an approximate enrollment
of 24.
The Agriculture school claims
20 foreign students, while students
in the Liberal Arts (from Eng
land, Germany, France and Ja
pan) and Chemistry-P h y sic s
schools number 16 each. The di
rectory lists 12 foreign students
enrolled in the School of Mineral
Industries; eight in engineering;
five in physical education; four in
home economics; and only one in
the Reserve Officers' Training
Corp. (These figures are all ap
proximate, and the directory fails
to list curricula for 28 students.)
