Macßae, the College employee who was fired because the College Loyalty Review Board said it lacked the neces sary evidence -to certify him as loyal, has come to the forefront once more. Macßae has applied for reinstatement, and the College has appointed Earf G. Harrison, a Philadelphia attorney, as the "investigating authority" in the case. Right on the heels of the announcement of Harison's appointment 'came a letter addressed to President Eisenhower froth State Sen. Albert R. Pechan, sponsor of the Loyalty Oath Law. Senator Pechan said he "was somewhat stunned" at tide College's choice of Harrison as investigator of the case. Among other things, Senator Pechan said that Harrison "was one of the most vehement objectors" to the loyalty oath measure when it was first introduced to Jthe legislature. He added that he considered President Eisen hower "most inconsistent" in his logic when he appointed "a person who is an avowed opponent of the measure in any form." It would seem that Senator Pechan is all wet m his logic. He seems to forget that in our democracy a man is to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. Fair play demands that Macßae be given every opportunity to justify his stand, and President Eisenhower is one who believes in fair play. Undoubtedly, Senator Pechan would have been quite satisfied if a staunch supporter of his bill had been appointed to Harrison's job. Apparently he is disturbed over the possibility that his "brainchild" might receive a setback. Before its enactment the Loyalty, Oath Law was opposed by most newspapers, the Ameri can Association of University Professors, and by most responsible citizens. In spite of this, however, the bill went through and so was made the first step in a series of vents which in the past have led to Fascist states. Many people think Macßae was rather foolish for taking the chance of losing his job over something which is so difficult for one man to buck. Macßae's friends have backed him up, however, and perhaps his case will be the de ciding factor in putting a stop to "legislated loyalty." ' President Eisenhower and Governor Fine have decided to let the matter lie in Harrison's hands. His decision on the case will be given to the Prexy for approval. Of course, final approval will lie with the Governor, for after all, Penn State's money comes from Harris burg. We trust the decision will upholdthe prin . • ciples of democracy.

PENNSYLVANIA Win or Lose-- Back the Team Students shouldn't need a sales talk to at tend tonight's pep rally, the peak of "Beat Pitt Week." There has been much talk about school spirit from high school through college. Considering the job the Nittany Lions have done during the season, Stater's will 'agree that they've been fighting all the way. However, the same_ thing can't be said for the student body—in all cases. The average attendance at pep rallies has been about, 400 persons out of an enrollment of more than 11,000. Many students are primed for that crucial game with Pitt. Hat Society Council has gone to great lengths to make this week and this pep rally "the greatest." However, success de pends on all of us—the student body. Something new has been added! For the first time in many years a bonfire will blaze at the rally. To have a successful bonfire, of course, many conditions are involved. The first necessity is wood—scrap wood. Bon fires have been eliminated from the campus for several years because the wood for the last bonfire was obtained through destruction of property. If this is done today, the bonfire will be canceled, James Plyler, president of Hat Society Council, has announced. The point is for everyone to gather scrap wood and take it to the parking lot next to the Jordan fertility plots. The more wood, the better. the fire. And this lies completely in the hands of the students. Rather than saying, "Let's all get out and fight," we'd like to say, "Let's show the 1952 Lions that whether they win or lose Saturday, the students are wholeheartedly behind them." We can' do this by cooperating in all respects and by coming out in the greatest numbers ever known , to participate in a Penn State pep rally. Gazette ...

Such an arrange ment is in effect at Lehigh Uni versity and the Universities of Georgia, Maryland and Utah. The question has been raised at Syracuse University of how much "damage" an extra half hour permission on S a t urda y nights has "wreaked" upon the coeds of the institution. The Syracuse Daily Orange list- Stock up today. TFIVRSDAY, NOVEMBER, 20, 1952 By NANCY LUETZEL ed the following effects, as tabu lated by the negative, which may be caused by the extra half-hour: 1. Sunday morning Chapel at tendance has fallen off consider. ably since the ruling went into effect last semester. 2. Several head residents have - resigned, feeling that this was the "last straw" along with other nightly permissions for women. 3. The scholarship average for women students dropped last semester. The infirmary had many more cases as a result, presumably because coeds had to keep late hours in order to "catch up" on homework. 4. Many girls believe that social pressure forces them to stay out until the deadline, al though they would rather re turn home earlier. 5. Many boys complained that their expenses were consider ably higher on Saturday nights. -6. The girls who are asleep by 1:30 a.m. have complained in many houses that the noise has been kept up until quite late, cutting their sleeping time. oto Fan? ght of Thanksgiving? . the people „ , the food 'll have . . . es will help you remember. sure you'll have enough s and flashes for the itt Game and Thanksgiving.
