To Display
Coal Scuttle
The University of ' Pittsburgh
,. Penn State "coal scuttle," estab
lished as a tradition this year by
the Interfraternity Councils of
both schools, is on the way to the
College and will be displayed at
the Student Union desk in Old
Main when it arrives, IFC Presi
dent Arthur Rosfeld said yester
day.
Th e scuttle, similar fo ones
found in front of fireplaces, will
be awarded annually to the win
ner of the Pitt-Penn State foot
ball game. State, winning this
year's game 17-0, will hold the
trophy one year.
After- a period of display at the
Student Union desk, the trophy
will be placed- in a trophy case
in Recreation Hall. Each year that
State wins, the trophy will remain
on display there.
Both IFCs have agreed to jointly
finance the trophy and exchange
it. Small metal plaques, will be
placed on the bucket 'each year,
listing the date, the winning
,‘ school, and the score of the game.
This new custom will initiate
a tradition similar to the one
existing between the Universities
a of Michigan and Minnesota where
the winner of the game is pre
sented football's "Little Brown
, Jug."

On SU Building
z. , .. ,- ~ , ,:,;4:;,1:7 , i
• ;':,..zi,J.5,0,25:d
Bids for construction of the proposed Student Union
Building are expected to be reviewed by the Board of Trus
tees Friday, according to Wilmer E. Kenworthy, director of
student affairs.
Plans an d - specifications were
made available to contractors for
bids about Oct. 18. Plans at, that
time called for letting of the con
tract if the bids came within the
$2,000,000 allotted. .
As of last semester $276,922.50
had been collected for the project,
according to the College Account
ing office. This fund has been col
lected through a student assessed
fee of. $7.50 per semester. It was
approved by All-College Cabinet
in May 1950.
The building, to be constructed
south of Osmond Laboratory, will
include a large ballroom, lecture
hall, music room for rehearsals,
library, c o ff e e shop, soda bar,
meeting rooms, offices for student
organizations, four lounges, and
game areas for table tennis, pool,
and billia is.
If a contract is awarded, doubt
exists when construction of the
building will start. In a statement
released Oct. 2.; President Milton
S. Eisenhower said:
"It is not possible to say ex
actly , when construction can be
started, but it should be soon after
the contract is let. It is estimated
that it will take about 18 months
to construct the building."

Men Engage
In Snovvbattle
Shouting and swearing students
living in the Nittany-Pollock area
enjoyed a snowball . fight last
night resulting in seven broken
windows in Pollock Circle, a stu
dent with a split lip, and another
hit by a coal clinker cleverly cov
ered with snow.
The fight was a running, incon
sistent affair, allegedly begun by
a small group of Nittany residents
who challenged Pollock Circle to
a round of snowballs. Two Nit
tany students were caught by
Pollock Dorm 4 residents who
took down their names to be giv
en to Dean of Men Frank J.
Simes. Dorm 4 had two windows
broken.
A =all group of about 40 from
Pollock retaliated by rushing
through two 'or more dorms in
Nittany throwing snowballs and
shouting.
The vast bulk of the residents
in the two areas did not partici
pate in the battle.
One student living in Pollock
Circle summed up, "Just like a
bunch of high school kids."

Riding Ring
Approved
By McCoy
Ernest B. McCoy, dean of the
School of Physical Education and
Athletics, yesterday came out in
favor of the proposed indoor
horseback riding ring.
McCoy will again be unable
to attend the meeting of the Rid
ing Club at 7 tonight in 317 Wil
lard. He was to have received
the petitions circulated by the
club, asking for the ring and more
horses for recreational riding.
He said although he was in fa
vor of the ring he did not know
if it would be built in the near
future.
Several Projects
The ' ring would be used for
physical education riding classes
during the winter and inclement
weather. Riding students now
share the stock pavilion with ag
riculture students.
"As matters now stand," he
said, "there are several projects
to which I would give preference
over the ring. These will have a
ore - general-use -among the stu
dent body. One of these is men's
recreational areas. I think, how
ever, that the ring might be built
in conjunction with some other
building." -
- McCoy said he - was not sure
of the likelihood of ,obtaining
more horses.
Value of Petitions
"I am not too familiar with the
situation regarding horses, but I
do not think there is enough
stable space for any additional
ones. Whether the stables could
be enlarged, I do not know," he
said.
McCoy expressed uncertainty
regarding the value of the peti
tions which will be given him
in the near future.
"I do not know how much
weight the administration will
' accord the petitions," he said.
"The petitions should be of some
value. In addition, I shall speak
favorably of the ring in my an
nual report to the administration."
