Let's Act Like Big Boys and Girls
As hundreds—perhaps thousands—of Penn
State students migrate to Philadelphia for the
Penn football game this weekend, there is only
one plea that can be issued: Let's act like big
boys and girls.
It is perhaps quite trite to say we will be
representatives of Penn State, and the impres
sions we make at Penn, and on Philadelphia,
will largely determine their opinions of the
College. However trite, it is still true.
Students here often resent Penn State's being
called "The Country Club." We often resent
the implication that students here grow fat in
the land of honey and never hit the books. But
we fail to realize this, is often the impression
we - Ourselves create by our actions.
AS representatives of the College, and our
selves, it might be wise to be a little restrained
in how we act this weekend. This does not pre
clude having a good time. This does not mean
we should not have a pep rally and raise hell
at the football game. This does not mean we
cannot party-party Saturday night.
Are You Willing to Share Your Life?
The fighting has ceased in Korea—at least
for the moment—and American citizens have
begun welcoming home friends and loved ones
who participated in the conflict. However, all
are not walking through their front doors.
Thousands still lie in hospitals throughout the
country.
And many are in immediate need of blood—
blood that must be supplied by the American
public through the Red Cross. This "Most Prec
ious. Gift" is scarce. The Red Cross needs your
help.
On October 13 to 15, a Red Cross Bloodmobile
will visit the College. Facilities will be set up
in the Temporary Union Building, where Red
Cross workers will be prepared to handle 500
donations.
Here lies an opportunity for college students
to do their share in repaying the American
men who served the United Nations in Korea.
It is little to ask of anyone. A wounded vet,
now minus a leg or arm, still appreciates life,
and blood gives life.
We urge the students of Penn, State to go to
the Student Union office in Old Main or the

More on Mob Action
TO THE EDITOR:, In answer to Mr. Howe'.
statement which appeared in the Collegian
(Safety Valve, Oct. 1), I would like to advise
him, and others in his category, to take a little
more notice of things before they consider
themselves experts.
Along with the facts that riots and mob
scenes are immature no matter what their his
tory may be, Richard Lemyre did not make a
challenge to all freshmen to hand to hand com
bat. He stated that the mob was an unruly mass,
but individuals could be taken care of; there
fore, a few would suffer for the actions of the
group. If you don't believe individuals can be
taken care of, ask those who were forced to
leave school in the past years how they feel
about it.

It does mean, however, we should not have
our fun at someone else's expense. We don't
like having the Lion Shrine painted by other
colleges. In the same vein then, we should not
paint the Quaker either. And any painting we
do should be done without causing trouble.
Penn ,State students, and the College,, were
criticized in some instances after last year's
Penn game. This criticism was sometimes justi
fied, sometimes not. We can prevent the justi
fied criticism.
Any bad manners we display at Philadelphia
this weekend cannot be laid at the feet of one
group, as some would try to do. Any bad man
ners must be laid at the feet of the entire stu
dent body. And the people of Philadelphia an('
Penn will lay the blame to the College.
There is such a thing as having a good tim:
and having it at our own expense. There is no
need for Penn State students to hurt others.
We expect our football team to play fair, and
the student body should play the same. As long
as we all play fair, we really can't lose.

The donating process is a simple, painless one
which requires only an hour. It may mean an
hour less in the Corner Room or the Snack Bar,
but it could mean fewer hours of pain and many
years of normal life for some American G.I.
There are over 11,000 students at Penn State.
We feel, that with an enrollment of this size,
the 500 pint quota should not only be filled,
but that it should go far over the top.

will hold a get-acquainted mixer Monday night
for prospective members. Membership is limited
to undergraduate men with scouting experi
ence.
There are not many students at Penn State
who know what Alpha Phi Omega is, or what
it does. This is because what it does, it does
quietly, but well. And through its actions,• the
group has proven one of high benefit to the
College and the student body.
A survey would show Alpha Phi Omega has
a full schedule. It begins with helping with
fall orientation and ends with the spring Ugly
Man contest, proceeds going to a charity. Sand
wiched in between are help at registration,
solicitations for Campus. Chest, errands for those
confined in the Infirmary, and other worth:
while projects.
For the student with a genuine interest in
Penn State, .or a genuine interest in service,
Alpha Phi Omega always has room. Too few
students are willing to give their time for the
benefit of others.
Alpha Phi Omega's byword is service. Mem
bership in such a group is something of which
any student may be proud.

"Sometimes I think we shouldn't have required courses."
Short 'Change
While glancing through the various hundreds of exchange news
papers I receive weekly, I came across a column entitled "Kilikelik"
in the Cincinnati News Record. It read like this:
If the men on campus have given up trying to explain the work
ings of an automobile to their women, perhaps this will do the trick.
The carburetor was described as a small device used to mix gaso
line and air, which is not to be confused with the cocktail shaker.
which mixes men and women.
The air filter is a cylindrical ob
ject which fits on the carburetor.
It is purely decorative and can be
taken off to let little brother or
sister play with; if so desired.
If a cop nails you for speeding,
tell him your phone number,
or that your name is Kelly. In
case the car doesn't start, the best
thing to do is to get out and look
under the hood. The average wo
man driver will not notice if any
thing is wrong but its the fash
ionable thing to do.
In praise of the women, how
ever, the Ohio State Lantern says
a man really gets something spe
cial when he marries. A story
was headlined "Housewives Var
ied Abilities are Worth ' $4170
Every Day," and proceeded to
explain how that particular fig
ure had been computed. Here are
some of the facts:
A wife earns six dollars a day
as a cleaning woman, $25 to $35
a week is for cooking at least
two meals a day, plus about $25
a week is she has to chauffeur
her husband to and from work.
She plans the meals for the fam
ily, so she is a dietician with a
salary of $250 a month. If she
balances the bankbook, she is
worth $12,000 a year, the salary
of a good certified public ac
countant.
Her work as a psychologist
brings in $lO to $l5 an hour more,
and her abilities as an interior
decorator rate her an additional
$lOOO. As you can see, she is
really quite a bargain.
A student from southern Ohio

University of Nebraska students

The Crazy UN
Digs a Record
In Translation
"Dig that broken record!"
That's the way Selwyn Lloyd,
British Minister of State, let it be
known that he detected a familiar
chord in the speeches of Andrei
A.'Vishinsky of the Soviet Union.
Lloyd was speaking before a
recent General Assembly political
and security committee session.
Said 'he: "If I may use the termi
nology of bebop, I am tempted to
say of those speeches, 'dig that
broken record'."
The word "bebop" raised tern
porary havoc in the interpreter's
quarters: 'Bebop" came out just
that way in Russian, French and
Spanish. The Chinese translator
had it "vulgar music."
Translators also had trouble
putting "dig that broken record"
in terms of other languages. "Look
up that old record for me" was
the French version. In Russian it
came out "Find that broken rec
ord."
Vishinsky wasn't particularly
amused by the dig. The way he
dug it, the record, broken or not,
must be quite important if Lloyd
made so much of it.

at the UN these days.
