McCoy, dean of the Physical Education and Athletics school, yesterday said the Penn State 'Blue Band is "definitely right in its criticism" of seats as signed the band Saturday at Franklin Field. • Donald Lambert,- Blue B and president, sent letters of protest to McCoy, Harold R. Gilbert, as sistant athletic director, and the Daily Collegian. He charged the location of the band made it im possible for many College stu dents at the game to hear the band when it played in the stands. Seating accommodations, he said, were unfair to members of the band. • "I wish to make clear that the fault was not in any way con nected with the University of Pennsylvania," Lambert said. "The fault lies with our own Athletic Association," he said. Gilbert, whose office. handles seating arrangements and tickets for away games, refused to make any statement yesterday, in ref erence to the protests. He said he may have comments later. McCoy said he is "sorry when any group is hurt. If there is any thing we can do to satisfy the band, the students, the alumni and the College's friends, we will do it." "T h e trouble is everybody wants to see the game from the fifty yard line. This is obviously • impossible. The Blue" Band does a swell job and my sympathy goes out to them. I've never seen any band outshine them," McCoy said. Lambert expressed willingness to meet with Gilbert or McCoy to iron out the problem.. Better' than half of the band was behind the goal post, and too low to see much action on the field, Lambert said. A spokesman from the Univer-1 sity of Pennsylvania ticket office said Monday that Gilbert had, re quested the seats for the band. Lion.

ELEANOR ROOSEVELT, addressing a capacity crowd in Schwab Auditorium last night. explains the functions of the United Nations. An overflow of listeners was seated on the stage of the auditorium when seats in the orchestra and balcony were filled. Mrs. FDR Continued Encouragement for continued support to those who despair that the United Nations is not fulfilling its purpose was offered by Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, former United States representative to the UN General Assembly as she addressed a capacity crowd in Schwab Auditorium last night. Mrs. Roosevelt said she believed the organization has made great strides toward the goals of the men who dreamed of such a group and of those who wrote the UN charter. " Although world-wide peace af ter World War II was disrupted by the Korean incident, the UN has helped to prevent war- in many parts of the world, she said. Informed People Needed The men who hoped for the es tablishment of machinery to maintain •peace did not expect that peace to fall from Heaven when the (charter was ratified, Mrs. Roosevelt told her audience. They knew harder and longer work would be required to make the machinery function satisfac torily than was necessary to end the second world war. Informed people who know what the UN is and what it does are necessary to achieve its pur pose, the former first lady said, adding that surveys show there are persons in the United States who never heard of the UN. People in other countries of the world know what the UN is be cause they . are helped by its ac tion groups, those which attempt to improve the everyday lives of the people , and form the founda tions of peace, she said. Live Up to Principles She explained that . people of, the United States were fortunate in being , able to maintain their production capacity to the end of the war because the country was untouched by bombs and battles on the home soil. In its present position, it can help other nations by giving support to a group in which they have membership, ra ther than by means which would be regarded as charity. Individuals can do their part' by living up to the principles they claim to believe in, Mrs. Roose velt said. "The United Nations will only succeed if the people of the country show their represen tatives they believe. in it." When the desolated countries get on their feet, the United States will need a market for its products, and it is to these coun tries they will look for trade, she said Rally to Feature Antics of Lion, Frothy Tonight Penn State football fans will cheer to the antics of Frothy and the Nittany Lion at the Boston game pep rally, sponsored by Blue Key, junior men's hat so ciety, at 7:30 tonight in front of Old Main.

They stay with us until they're 13, then they go on to School somewhere else. If they need financial help to complete their education, we try to give it to them." "Oh, yes. The reason for the break with history that goes back 900 years, was this: we felt the boys would be , wonderful good will ambassadors between oti r two countries. "So we decided to come, on-the condition that if there were any profits—and there probably won't be—they would. go to an Ameri can charity.
