Victory Celebration
Shouldn't Be Blasted
Last week saw one of the most amazing dis
plays of school spirit at Penn State within re
cent years. About 1500 to 2000 Staters got to
gether last Monday to begin a victory rally
celebrating State's 17-0 win over the University
of Pittsburgh and the end of State's most suc
cessful- football season since the 1947 Cotton
Bowl team.
Beginning about 12:30 p.m., the rally and
demonstration continued for almost three hours.
It was heartwarming to see the display. The
football• team must have felt very proud to
have been remembered by so large a group of
students.
After marching about campus, led by a
booming drum, the crowd surged through
several buildings, marching into classes which
naturally were disrupted. In most cases the
teacheis of those classes didn't mind the fun,
and most followed through with the demon
stration by dismissing their classes. In other
cases, however, a different reaction was found.
It is all too infrequent for students at Penn
State to get enthusiastic about their school
or any aspect of it. Therefore, when such
enthusiasm is aroused, it should not be chas
tised.
It must be acknowledged, however, that there
were some excesses last Monday. It is unfor
tunate, but true, that no matter how well-in
tentioned such a rally might be, there will
always be a few who get out of hand. The
march through classrooms was something
unique to say the least. In most cases it was
fairly well received, but the noise and confusion
put students who had bluebooks in those build
ings at a distinct disadvantage. This exam ques
tion is one of the very few problems created
by the rally.
Another problem was the destruction of prop
erty in the Home Economics Building, where
eggs were thrown about and a number of things
were stolen. The damage caused by the demon
stration was negligible, however.
Only one further instance of trouble has
come to Stir attention so far. This concerned
a partially disabled vet who was injured when
he and several of his classmates were routed

from a building when they heard the fire alarms
sounding.
The victory rally was a welcome change
in the routine at Penn State. It is unavoidable
that some complaints will be raised. On the
whole, however, a great many students had
some fun, and a favorable fe e ling of school
spirit was created. Such things should not
be condemned completely.

Survey Discloses
Youth's Big Problems
Unhappy relationships between father and mother and
,the
draft and threat of war have been cited as the two biggest
problems facing youth today in a recent nationwide poll'-by
the National Mid-Century Committee' for Children and , Youth.
The committee, meeting in
New York City, polled 6181 per
sons under 21 and 856 adults to
reach the conclusion. in its Octo
ber new s letter, the committee
asked readers to rate 23 problems
facing youth as "very important,"
"important," or "not so impor
tant "
Fifty-six per cent of the youths
voting gave top rating of "very
important" • to the draft situa
tion and to unhappy parents.
Adult voters in the poll gave
the same two problems an even
higher percentage.
Following the first two prob
lems, the next eight highest rank
ing problems, according to the
poll, were developing a healthy
attitude toward sex, being under
stood by parents, finding the right
job, use of narcotics, finding the
right mate, responsible automo

bile, driving, use of alcohol, and
religious uncertainties.
The poll was devised by E,lrna.
Phillipson, executive secretary of
the committee, and Alexander L.
Crosby, social specialist, as an in
ventory of current problems fac
ing youth today. The committee's
main objective has been greater
participation of youth in civic al
fairs.
' The committee was puzzled
by the• heavy vote on the nar
cotics problem. Miss Phillipson
theorized voters were influenced
by newspaper publicity on the
problem. She said. "We have no
reports indicating that use of
narcotics is a generally serious
problem."
• Both youth and adults gave low
ratings to economics problems. A
good home was voted 15 on the
