Martin's Record Hit Gives Yanks sth Series in Row 9th Inning Blow. Offsets Furillo's HR NEW YORK, Oct. 5. (JP) Billy (The Kid) Martin's rec ord 12th World Series hit in the last of the nin t h gave Casey Stengel's proud New York Yankees an unprece dented fif th straight world championship today 'with a 4-3 victory over Brooklyn in the sixth .game at Yankee Stadium. Lashing back after Carl Furil lo!s two-run homer off Allie Rey nolds tied the score in the Dodger ninth, the Yanks snuffed out Brooklyn hopes with a stunning comeback against reliefer Clem Labine. Martin Bats .500 pitch and Yogi Berra flied out Hank Bauer walked on a 3-2 deep to -Furillo before Mickey Mantle outsped a slow roller off the glove of third,baseman Billy Cox. It was scored as a single and Bauer moved to second on it. Martin,linishing the series with a .500 batting average, looked at a called strik and then slammed a line single to center that scored Bauer with the winning run of the - richest of all Series: Duke Snider didn't even bother to throw to the plate as Bauer sped home, free and clear. Lights Turned On With the hit Martin tied the all-time record for most hits in a Series, 12, and established a mark for a six-game set. He won for his delirious Yank mates full pay shares of, about $BOOO from the record player pool of $694,341.61. This game, finished under lights because of dark, threatening clouds saved its drama for the fi nal moments. Until - the ninth it looked to the 62,370 fans like a routine 3-1 triumph for the always-winning Yanks who now have a 16-4 record in Series corn- . petition. Martin's hit saved Whitey Ford from going down in the record book, guilty of one of the most momentous blunders since Fred Merkle failed to touch second. It looked innocent enough at - the time when Ford failed to tag up after a long 370-foot fly ball by Berra in the second and was dou bled at the plate. But as the game wore on that run loomed larger and large - r. • (Continued .on page six) Germon.Club to Elect The German Club will elect a vice president at 7:30 tonight in McElwain Hall study lounge.

STATE COLLEGE, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 6, 1953 A far-reaching and basic change in the Association of Independent Men organization is now being formulated, and is expected to be put into effect by the first meeting of the AIM Board of Governors, President Joe Somers, reported. The plan is being prepared by an AIM reorganization committee headed ,by Shifflett, Somers said, and calls for a General Assembly of all floor and dormitory presi dents and town, representatives. Officers of AIM would be elected by popular vote of all independent men. The president of AIM would preside at the meetings of the General Assembly where all major problems would be considered, Shifflett reported. This body would probably meet Enforcement Of Customs Still Lagging , • '‘•• Lag in freshman customs was apparent yesterday as the cus toms program went into its third week, according to Thomas Ftar rell, co-chairman of the Fresh man Customs an d Regulations Board. Rain appeared to be ari excuse for the reported indifference of students toward customs enforce ment as the Frosh apparently sub stituted rain hats and scarves for dinks. _ Cases of 26 students previously accused of customs violations will be heard by the Freshman Cus toms and Regulations Board at 7 tonight in 204 Old Main. The board will-also discuss pen alties for approximately. 50 men charged with customs violations last week during three -raids by hatmen. The raids were made by An drocles, junior men's hat society, and Skull and Bones, senior men's hat society, on the Nittany-Pol lock dining hall and the West Dorm area during the noon and evening meals. Farrell and Joyce Shusman, co chairmen of customs board, both expressed disappointment at the lack of customs spirit yesterday. "Enforcement is largely over," Farrell said, • "and now it is up to the freshman class to develop class spirit for themselves." He said that customs boar d would prepare an official state ment about the customs program for publication later this week. Miss Shusman said that "upper class spirit was entirely lacking yesterday" and that customs board would appreciate enforce ment of the remaining customs program. Customs regulations on dating, the wearing of signs and bow ties and the carrying of Student Hand books were liftedo Thursday by customs board. . Freshmen must continue to wear dinks, curtsy and doff their dinks upon request by upperclass men, and know songs, cheers and locations of campus buildings. Hours for freshman women this weekend will be one ten and one one o'clock permission to be tak en Friday and Saturday nights. IFC Pledge Cards, Fees Due Tomorrow Official Interfraternity Coun cil pledge cards and $2 pledge fees must be submitted to fhe IFC by tomorrow night, Thomas Schott, IFC president, announced yesterday. • Pledge: cards and fees may be turned in at the Student Union desk in Old Main or to Alan McChesney, IFC secre tary, at the IFC meeting to morrow night, Schott said. FOR A BETTER PENN STATE once a month, he said. Day to day business of AIM would be conducted through an advisory council to the president of AIM which would include the four council presidents, the four from the executive committee, and the seven standing commit tee heads, Shifflett said. It would probably meet' every week, he added. The executive committee for the following year, he said, would be suggested by the present ad visory council, approved, by the General Assembly, and officially confirmed by the president of AIM. It was also suggested that the AIM elections committee screen all candidates, or a nominations committee representing all areas be established. Thus, it is hoped, Somers re ported, that a closer connection between the various levels of AIM can be made. At present, there is too wide a gap between the AIM executives and the 6300 independents represented, he said. More men would be able to participate directly in the work of AIM through this proposal, Somers said, since the General Assembly would have about 90 members: the 75 floor and dormi tory presidents and town repre sentatives and the 15 members of the Advisory Council. Thus, a more cohesive repre sentative group would result in the end, Shifflett said. Sprague to Speak Dr. Howard B. Sprague, head of the Agronomy department, will speak on opportunities for agronomy students at the Clover Club meeting at 7 tonight in 117 Plant Industries. A bellhop at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel, Philadelphia, se verely beaten early Sunday by three men, was reported "coming along fine" by doctors at Jefferson Hospital last night. Neither Philadelphia police or hotel officials know who the bell hop's assailants were. Approximately 1700 students from the College were staying in the hotel after the Pennsylvania-Penn State game Saturday. A rumor that a student jumped from a mid-city hotel window early Sunday morning, was re ported "unfounded" yesterday by the Daily Pennsylvanian, Univer sity of Pennsylvania daily news paper. Early editions of today's Philadelphia Inquirer carried no story on the assault of the bell hop, David IL McKee, 30. The Pennsylvanian,. reported that McKee was admitted to the Urology Ward of Jefferson Hos pital suffering from kidney wounds. He never lost conscious ness during the beating. The hos pital said they do not know when McKee' will be released. A spokesman for the Bellevue- Stratford said last night that Mc- Kee told him that he (McKee) would be able to identify his as sailants if he saw them again. Detectives were reportedly studying a link between the beat ing of McKee and a false alarm which was sounded in the hotel an hour and a half earlier. Bellhop Assaulted In Philadelphia Hotel rgiatt Blood Drive Pledge Slips Due Today Pledge cards and minor release forms for the Oct. 13-15 campus blood drive should be turned in to 112 Old Main today, Jack Hu ber, liaison representative for the State College Red Cross unit, an-. nounced yesterday. However, Huber added, the scheduling committee will try to accommodate those who are un able to return their forms by ac cepting them tomorrow. The com mittee needs the slips as soon as possible to set up a schedule, he said. Student response to the drive has been "fair," Huber said, but out of 900 slips that have been picked up, only 171 have been returned. The goal for the drive is 500 pints. Forms are still available at the Student Union desk in Old Main and in the lobby of the West Dorm lounge. ' Donors are 'asked not to sign up for the morning of Oct. 14 be cause Temporary Union Build ing, where the Johnstown Red Cross Bloodmobile will set up fa cilities, has been reserved by an other group. Blood may be donated from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 13 and 15, and from 1 to 7 p.m. Oct. 14. The blood-giving process takes (Continued on page eight) Four fire companies and two truck companies responded to the false alarm. Firemen raced to the ninth floor, where the alarm was sounded, but no fire was found. Traffic on Broad street outside the hotel was snarled for half an hour. The bleeding bellhop was dis covered by night clerk Arthur Hybert, the Inquirer reported yesterday,- as he crawled down the stairs in a dazed condition and collapsed. According to the paper, McKee discovered the three men, each about 25, and asked if they were guests. One mumbled a reply, and McKee tried to call the ho tel's assistant manager. One man grabbed the phone and hit Mc- Kee on the head with it. An other kicked him in the abdomen as he fell down. Police reported several Phila delphia hotels had reported de struction of 'hotel property afte2 the game. FIVE CENTS
