Students Will Give
Blood, Not Money
The thermometer an the Mall, registering the
progress of the Campus Chest drive, could well
be registering the temperature of mid-winter
at Penn State. Moving the thermometer is like
moving frozen molasses in a glass tube.
It should, instead, move like a red-hot geyser,
spouting over the top. It seems, however, that
Penn Staters are much more willing to give
blood than money. (Witness this year's and last
year's blood drives).
Last year's drive met with great success, mass
ing $11,890, almost '99 per cent of the $12,000
goal. So far this year, results have been poor,
totaling only $3400.
This year's Chest is once more training its
sights on a $12,000 goal. Unless returns pick,
up sharply, the drive will fall far short of the
goal before the deadline tomorrow. The drive
has already been given a week extension be
cause of slow returns.
The campus drive is a service to the student.
Rather than being approached by the several
different organizations seeking money, students
have a chance to "Give Once—Serve All." By
making one donation, the student gives to nine
separate organizations.
These organizations include the Penn State
Christian Association, which receives 46 per
cent, the bulk of the fund. Others include the
American Cancer Society and the Heart Fund.
Money given to these two organizations is used
for research which has proven its worth by
the many lives saved so far and the promise
of the lives it can save in the future.
The remaining groups are the World Student
Service Fund, Women's Student Government
Association Christmas Fund, Penn State Schol
arship Fund, National Student Service Fund
for Negro Students, and Salvation Army.
The Service Fund for Negro Students, new
organization to the Chest this year, is a social
welfare agency that conducts a counseling ser
vice on scholarship data, admissions policies,
and related information about inter-racial col
leges. The March of Dimes was dropped this
year because its charter forbids the drive to
take part in a joint fund raising campaign.
Students should keep in mind that the ma
jor portion of the Chest fund is used in some
way to benefit the College, either directly or
indirectly.
Donors need not give cash. By using IBM
- pledge cards, it is possible to make a pledge
of any amount over $l. This' pledge will be
added to next semester's fees. You can give
now and not even feel it.
You, whether student, faculty member, or
grad student, will be contacted soon if you have
not been approached already. Here are nine

Chest.
United Nations Trip
The Political Science department and Educa
tion Student Council are sponsoring a trip to
the United Nations Assembly in New York Dec.
11 to 14. This trip is open to anyone at the Col
lege, and all absences will be excused: Forty
dollars has been given as the probable cost
of the trip, including transportation, hotel, food,
and personal expenses.
This trip affords a good opportunity to wit
ness history in the making, to see what makes
the UN tick, and to understand what's going on
behind the international headlines.
The chief drawback for the average will prob
ably be the problem of money. Thanksgiving
vacation affords a good opportunity for talking
over the idea at home. Those interested enough
might suggest the trip to the UN as a Christmas
present. Some could come back from the
Thanksgiving vacation with a ticket to the UN
in their future.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Avoid a Repetition
Of Penn Behavior
Beginning today hundreds of students will be
migrating to Pittsburgh to watch the Nittany
Lions tangle with the Pitt Panthers at Pitt
Stadium. The game should be one of the best
of the season and undoubtedly Penn Staers will
be in high spirits.
The behavior of Staters at the Penn game
was admirable, but their actions after the
game were nothing of which the school can
be proud. It is possible to have plenty of fun
without destroying property and creating a
general disturbance.
Apparently this year's behavior • after the
Penn game was not as bad as in '4B, but there
is certainly room for improvement. The reign
of destruction in Philadelphia hotels did nothing
to enhance the reputation of the College or the
Penn State student body.
The College is understandably fed up with
this adverse publicity and the numerous irate
letters which flood the President's office after
every such demonstration. Consequently, the
College intends to take disciplinary action in
the future.
In a statement issued earlier this week by
Wilmer E. Xenworthy, director of student af
fairs, the viewpoint of the College was ex
pressed. "If and when there are reported to us
the names of students who are guilty of dis
orderly conduct, disciplinary action will be
taken on the ground that, even . though the
incidents were away from the campus, the
student has harmed the relation of the Col
lege with the people of the State.
"Our football team is honorably represent
ing the College on the field. We who - benefit
from their efforts should show our pride in
them by making citizens generally proud of
us."
Mr. Kenworthy's statement should be am
ple evidence that "the College means business.
If, however, the warning is not effective, more
positive steps can be taken by requesting hotels
in cities where away games are played to re
port students who create disturbances. This
move shouldn't be necessary, since college stu
dents are supposed to be mature in their think
ing. Unfortunately, there have been too many
evidences in the recent past they are no+.
Safety Valve
Mummers Parade Case
TO THE EDITOR: Chuck Obertance's article.
"Mummers Parade Was Big Blunder," certainly
painted a muddy picture of our committee in
more ways than one. I'm sure that we were
every bit as disappointed as Mr. Obertance, pos
sibly more so, for it was our express purpose
to make the parade, a success. We failed, and
no one is more sorry than myself.
Chuck gave two reasons for our failure. The
first stated that the wet track would be ruined
if floats were allowed to be driven over it. The
second accused our committee of not obtaining
"full permission" to use the track. This term
"full permission" is a very intriguing one in
that I am not quite sure what it means. Perhaps
he was referring to our lack of rapport with
Deaii Ernest B. McCoy after we had ascertained
Ike Gilbert's permisSion to use the track.
I personally obtained Mr. Gilbert's "go ahead,"
and at no time was Dean McCoy even men
tioned. If final word rested with Mr. McCoy
why didn't Mr. Gilbert inform me of this? In
order to obtain "full permission" is it necessary
that a committee member see every officer in
the school, including President Eisenhower?
Our committee is willing to accept some of the
blame, but eyes should also be turned to a
poorly integrated executive system in the Phy
sical Education department.
-Even if Saturday had been a beautiful day
I doubt whether the parade would have been
allowed to go on Beaver Field on the grounds
that Mr. McCoy had not been contacted. Inci
dentally, I don't see how a drizzle that couldn't
affect mere paper floats's could possibly soften
up a cinder track

Britain Supports
Indian POW Plan
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Nov. 20 (?P)—Britain today threw its
support to an Indian plan designed to solve the prisoner of wRr issue
in Korea. The- United States also believes the plan is basically satis
factory, informed sources said, but may insist upon certain changes.
Britain made known her approval—with some questions— when
Anthony Eden, foreign secretary, spoke soon after he conferred with
President-elect Eisenhower_
Both the United States and French delegations were reported
to agree with Eden's stand, but officially- the U.S. delegation merely
called the British declaration "constructive." Russian bloc sources
said it was "too early" to react.
No Insistence On Private Talks
Eden spoke for 12 minutes to the UN political committee. He
brought into the open Britain's position which had been stated in
several meetings of a subcommittee of Western delegations studying
Korean resolutions. He did not refer to or comment on the talk
with Eisenhower.
There had been reports 'that the United States had insisted in
private , talks with Western delegations on having the Indian resolu
tion spell out in detail provisions' for repatriation of prisoners of
war, and eventual disposition of those still in camps 90 days after
an armistice.
Apparently these difficulties were solved for, after Eden's
speech, informed sources said the U.S. position was almost identical
with that of Britain.
Eden, speaking slowly and with great emphasis, said the Indian
resolution, presented by V. K. Krishna Menon, should not be viewed
too legalistically.
"This resolution is, in my view, a timely and constructive at
tempt to resolve this deadlock," Eden said. "Progress at Panmunjom
has been slow, but it represents a remarkable achievement. All
but one issue, that of prisoners, had been settled. Meanwhile the
casualties are mounting steadily."
