panding those metropolitan
schools rather than Penn State.
This idea is wrong. Firs t,
Penn State has a large enroll
ment partially because students
living within such metropolitan
areas are unwilling to live at
home and commute to college.
Second, students living only
c about 40 miles outside a big
city college would probably
find it necessary to live in the
city rather than commute.
i Third, the expense of living
away from home is the indi
vidual's expense and not that
of the state. And students not
4 living in metropolitan areas
would still find it necessary to
live at the college they are at
. tending.
Perhaps the most frightening
thing about this point is that the
Chesterman committee would
award state aid to colleges on the
basis of the population of the city
in which they are situated rather
than their individual needs. Such
ti a plan, the committee has failed
to see, would be more detrimental
to the state's small liberal arts
colleges than Penn State could
ever be. State aid should be .giv
en when and where needed and
not to a college merely because
it is in a metropolitan area.
6 - Finally, the Chesterman com
mittee said a reduction in Penn
State aid could be made without
the slightest loss in educational
'' values. It must again be pointed
out that the committee never con
tacted a College official:lo find
out what effect and aid reduction
would have on education at 'Penn
State. It is obvious any reduction
in educational aid would bring
about a loss in educational values
somewhere along the line.• If this
were not the case, the state could
eliminate all its aid to colleges
without imparing educational
values
The committee, surveying public
education as one of 30 studies to
promote economy in Pennsylvania

Lion Defense Superb
Penn State's Rip Engle is
proudest of his team's defense
against punt returns during the
1952 football campaign: The av
erage return on 71 kicks was un
der three yards, which Engle de
scribes as phenomenal.

teachers' colleges. The committee
advocated restricting enrollment
in those colleges to prospective
teachers an d suggested. a plan
that would .require those grad
uates to teach for some time upon
graduation. This plan is poor.
First, it would exclude from
a college education those stu
dents who can afford only to
attend a certain teachers' col
lege
but who do not wish to
teach. Foremost, it would give
the state the power to tell grad
uates how to earn their living.
The state should not have the
right to do this.
The Chest e r man committee
probably worked with too much
paper and not enough facts. Many
Penn State students have com
mented strongly against the re
port. Some feel it an outright at
tempt to favor Pitt, Penn, or Tem
ple over Penn State.
However good its intentions,
the Chesterman committee has
selected a poor field in which to -
cut expenditures. Economy,
someone has said, is not abstain
ing from spending money, but is
spending money wisely. Where
can money be spent more wisely
than for the education of today's
youth, tomorrow's citizenry.

Vic Seixas Raises
Davis Cup Hopes
MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec.
8 (JP)—Vic Seixas, the American
Davis Cup captain, handed Frank
Sedgman 'and the confidence of
Australian tennis fans a severe
jolt today by defeating the Aus
tralian ace, 8-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, to
win the Victorian Singles champ
ionship.
Seixas' triumph came three
weeks before the Davis Cup chal
lenge round, which will be played
at Adelaide, Dec. 29, 30, 31.
Before today's final began at
Kooyong, there were •plenty of
admirers around the courts pre
pared to lay 3 to 1 on Sedgman's
winning his third successive Vic
torian title. Now they're not so
certain that Australia can be cer
tain of two matches in the Davis
Cup final—Sedgman's two singles.l

Schoderbek Voted
Most Valuable.
By Sports Class
The national sportswriters aren't
the only. ones who recognized how
valuable Pete Schoderbek was as
a linebacker to Penn State's 1952
football team.
Recently the Journalism 35
(sports reporting) class voted for
the three top men on Coach Rip
Engle's squad. The final - result:
Schoderbek, 29; Tony Rados, quar
terback, 28; and Bill Leonard,
halfback, 26. Three points were
given for first place, two for sec
ond, and one for third.
Thursday, Schoderbek wa s
named to the first team of the
Associated Press 1952 All East
football team. He also received
honorable mention on the AP's
All-America team.
Only a junior, Schoderbek. was
noted for his below-the-knee tac
kles and his ability to diagnose
the oppbsition's offensive strat
egy.
Rados, also a junior, was the
man largely responsible for press
clippings in the passing depart
ment. His first-rate efficiency as
a passer resulted in a new Penn
State record. He completed 93
throws in 186 attempts.
A hometown boy, senior Leon
ard paced the Lion scorers with
27 points. His educated toe netted
21 points in 23 attempts in the
point-after-touchdown try. The
other six points were garnered
via the field goal route.
