The College also came close to receiving more national recognition late Monday evening when men in both dormitory areas started what could have become Penn State's second annual panty raid. There is an obvious difference between national recognition received from a Pres ident's visit and that from a dorm panty raid. Panty raid recognition is not the type of recognition the College needs. And it is not the type of recognition an honest Penn State student should want his college to have. Many students who involve themselves in panty raid attempts are the same students who turn out to cheer Penn State athletic teams. There is a strange relation here. Any student who wishes to see his college on top, in ath leics or in any area, would certainly not tear down its reputation with a panty raid. Fortunately, Monday night's fracas did not develop into dorm-storming• proportions. Dean of Men Frank J. Sims and several hatmen were able to talk the instigators out of that idea. This should not have been necessary. An intelligent student would not have involved himself in the uprising in the first place. An ' May 13, 1953 CHESS CLUB, 7 p.m.. 3 Sparks.

Americans who keep up with British politics will recognize the for m e r Prime Minister's speech as connected with the conflict between him and Aneu rin Bevan, left-wing leader, for control of the Labor Party. Other Americans will be just plain mad. When he says there are ele ments in the United States that do not want a settlement in Ko rea, he is repeating the Com munist line. When he raises the question of Chinese Communist mem bership on the United Nations Security Council, even though he admits it shouldn't be done until after an armistice, he is advocating a pet Communist project. When he emphasizes the dif ferences between British and American institutions, when he chooses an extremely difficult period to talk about divergencies in policy, when he questions the President's power to really rep resent the U.S. on international Business Mirror Salesman Field Needs June By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK (M—The June graduate is turning down the role of s a 1 e s m a n—just when salesmanship is about to play a return engagement on the busi ness stage. Selling as a career appeals to few of them, according to a number of college placement officers around the country. Tops on the list of jobs the graduates like are engineer ing, chemistry, accountancy, personnel work and business administration. The space-ship wonder-lure of the sciences— plus the high starting pay offered in these tight -supply professions—is making it hard for the company needing salesmen to recruit likely beginners. Specialized en gineers are in big demand and earn high pay as soon as they doff their caps and gowns.

Attlee is not a Communist. He has been ousted by the British people, just as Bevan has never been accepted, as their representative in inter national affairs. His speech is primarily an example of the extremes into which politics can lead people. Americans are familiar with similar in temperate manifestations in their own Congress. Many will be tolerant. The former Prime Minister's interpolation in the British for eign policy debate will not, how ever, do anything to help smooth over the differences which have arisen on either side of the At lantic over attitudes toward the Russian peace offensive. Winston Churchill made a reference to Locarno in his speech proposing an immedi ate top level peace conference. He said maybe an Allied guar antee of Russian safety from Germany. and of German safety from Russia, could be an entering wedge for East- West agreement. Loca r n o, however, is remembered pri- nia and the South, all report the same thing: June graduates look toward the technical fields rather than selling. Business is scouting for salesmen now becai"se it feels that the days of the hard sell may be approaching again - that the buyers market is upon us and good salesman ship will become a prime ne cessity. The salesman's job is to sell discontent. That is, he makes people want more and better things. High consumption in turn will mean high employ ment. In the business field, grad uates at a Pennsylvania uni versity are attracted by mer chandise, not selling, but in such small numbers that busi ness fir ms complain they aren't getting their share of top quality. graduates.

Both Good and Bad unintelligent student should not be in college. Any thinking person should realize a panty raid is perhaps the best way to ruin the name of the College. And in so tainting the Col lege's name, the student also taints the student body as a whole and himself in particular. Every Penn State student personifies this college to his friends at home..To these people, Penn State is shown through his actions, and what occurs at Penn State has a direct reflec i;ion upon him. This may be an unfair situation, unit it is one we cannot deny. It behooves every Penn State student, then, to think before he acts. For - some, this may be an impossibility. However, it is a neces sity. If students continue to disregard intelligent thought and insist upon raising hell, the Col lege must and will crack down upon offenders. Such a crackdown could result in expulsion of seVeral students. This seems the hard way to learn. It's about time Penn State students decide why they are in college. Unless they can expend their energies upon something other than hell-raising, someone is going to suffer. Uncle Sam is waiting. Who is willing to go first? Men wanted for garden and lawn, housework, and odd jobs.

Roberts Jr. Associated Press News Analyst marily as one of history's best examples of the fact that if the nations want peace, no pact is necessary, and if they do not, the pact will work, however, no harm in exploring such things. And Churchill is certainly right in recognizing that, over and above the con stant Russian policy of expan sion of communism, fear may play a very important role in the Kremlin's immediate at titude. Fear of foreign influ ence is an ingrained Russian trait. Fear of Western inter vention in her affairs has been constant ever since it actually occurred in the early days of the Bolshevik revolution. Churchill was frankly in disa greement with some American policies. He thinks he's lived through a lot and knows a lot more about some things than other people. But he doesn't make enemies of his best and most important friends by call ing them foolish and unprin cipled just because t her e is some disagreement. In the meantime, his idea for a conference has received sup port from the Vatican. The pres sures for it begin to outweigh the arguments against it. Grads into military service first. Many firms are hiring them now with the idea that after two years the graduates will be available. Although more companies, in cluding retailers, are scouting the university this year, the shortage of salesman beginners is as acute as the more publi c:zed 'one of engineers.

In case you're confused on the proper rules of table etiquette, here are a few which appeared in the New York University Heights Daily News which might be of aid. Dinner is served and the old question of which piece of silver ware arises. The best way to avoid a faux pas is to keep your imple- ments well concealed under your hands, and to eat rapidly so no one will be able to tell which you are eating with. If the dish is liquid, the last resort is to drink it. If it is solid. stuff it in your pockets, if you can make no headway with it. Lastly, if the food is something you absolutely cannot stomach, you may place it on someone's plate when he is not looking. He will eat it or sncak it on to some body else's plate. If it returns to you, keep it moving—someone is bound to weaken. . Seeds should be held in the cheek until an opportunity for disposing of them presents itself. If the host notices the lump in your cheek, its true nature may be obscured by shifting it from cheek to cheek like chewing to bacco. The next morning, change your name and move to another state. The latest "interests" survey conducted among 600 women stu dents at the University of Wiscon sin shows only 68 of the women primarily interested in marriage as a career. Another 154 want jobs and 369 are as much interested in jobs as they are in marriage. A University of Chicago stu dent and a former student, who said they "needed the money to get through school," have been arrested for counterfeiting. The two students were accused of photographing ten-dollar bills, engraving them as best they could. and printing them with a letter press and Laundry wringers. Secret Service agent s, who caught the pair while they were still experimenting, described the product as "good."
