How Long Will AIM Be Aimless? Evidences of decay of the Association of In dependent Men have been seen for some time now. The ironic part is that the present AIM group has the potential and the resources for an effective organization. The question has often been posed whether or not the very nature of an independent organ ization dooms it to failure before it has even raised its head. The question can also be phrased "Do independents even wish to organize?" Is this. the reason independents remain inde pendent? It is difficult to subscribe to this point of view, however, because so many independents are active in campus activities, hat societies, co-ops, and religious organizations. That the independent does wish to have an organization representing him, that this organ ization must meet the specially unique demands of the independent student, that the present AIM is not meeting these demands, which ac counts for the lack of interest on the part of the students within AlM—all this seems to be the more realistic point of view. First, it should be realized by AIM that it has an organization, and come reorganization or not. Safety Valve.., On a University TO THE EDITOR: By what necromancy do the name change proponents expect a rearrange ment of ink blobs or three more syllable-noises uttered at the right times to the right people to effect the profound results which they predict? ... The desire for change (of the College's name to Penn Stale University) is an admirable one . . . and I have no real quarrel with calling Penn State a college, a university, an institute, a country club, or anything else . . . Let's ex amine those reasons (for the change) given by students as reported Saturday by the Daily Collegian. . . . “It will give the College more prestige ...” I would seriously question the qualifications of any educator who would modify his evalu ation of an institution because the name failed to meet some personal definition . . . . . . And may I note a new implied distinction between “college” and “university?” According to Vince Stuccio, the difference lies in numbers —enroll enough’ students and you have a uni- Today ACEI, 7 p.m., Atherton Lounge.

STATE COLLEGE PENNSYLVANIA VINCE DRAYME, Business Mgr. the activities of the present AIM should not be suspended. The need for reorganization, itself, is a moot question. The need for firm leader ship, an awakening of interest within' the group, and a constructive program in accordance with the needs of the independent men, is much more apparent. What then are these demands, and how are they to be met? The present AIM group has reached a point of disintegration that may be fatal. A few suggested helps might be continual surveys of independent men- by AIM, giving the president a working budget with a minimum of two or three secretarial assistants, possibly the recording and corresponding secretaries of AIM, and the development of a social program of some type. Providing the Town Council with a meeting place in the town area, and a location for holding social and cultural affairs in town would certainly help that group. How long can AIM remain the aimless group that it is? A clear explanation of the objectives of AIM is necessary. An integrated publicity plan also would be beneficial. Clearlv, something must be done, and soon. —Len Goodman versity! Hail to thee, oh Mass Production! . . . On the other side of the question we have some equally idiotic comments, though not as many since 85 per cent of those polled favor the change. Sample attitudes . . . axe: Jerry Black's adulation of the status quo, Sehoy Bosler's mis taken association of name with quality and ?rice . . . and Natalie Moskowitz's .fear of word onfusion. In all this fog of nonsense, two clear beams •f good sense shine forth. Mark Gladstone shows . . . clear thinking in his deceptively simple tatement,' “The name does not make the chool” and some unidentified savant has point d to the expense of changing all the labels, . . . etc. I suggest that the money might be better spent in stocking those many rows of empty shelves in Pattee Library and thus making the inscription to the right of the main entrance ("a true university is a collection of books") just a shade more meaningful. 8 Letter cut —Name withheld OHIO BOXBOARD CO. will interview Jan.

Freda, lei me pul ii another way . . ‘ ireting the News Inter, Spain May Object To A-Bomb Bases Despite President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s recent ruling that government officials shall get clearance from the Atomic Energy Commission before making statements about atomic bomb policy, another foulup has occurred. Air Force Secretary Harold E. Talbott gave the impression at a news conference in Spain that new bases in that country would be used to store atomic weapons for i ~ • use against a common enemy. Later, he said he didn’t say that. Air Force Chief of Staff Twin ing, speaking at the same time, somewhat qualified whatever Tal bott said by indicating that, in any war, atomic retaliation from Spanish bases would have to await arrival of atomic supplies. He also said that eventually, all free na tions would be supplied with atomic weapons. After it was all over it ap peared Talbott and Twining were talking about their ideas of possible future events rather than about any concrete plans. | But there was a quick flurry of ! conferring in Washington after which Secretary of Slate John Foster Dulles said the United Stales had no plans for storing atomic weapons in Spain. Because they do not react that swiftly, no connection was seen between the latest U.S. talk about atomic weapons and the Russian announcement that she has a var iety of A and H-bombs. Nor. was there any apparent connection with Winston Church ill’s philosophizing that if every body was going to have weapons capable of wiping out everybody else, nobody would want to start anything. This was a step either forward or away from the aged British prime minister’s long standing belief that American su premacy in nuclear weapons was the world’s chief insurance against war. ' The whole business, however, comes up at a time when nego tiations are under way for im plementation of the new ar rangements with Spain, and is calculated to be upsetting there. For a long time a small but ac tive faction in Britain has been contending that American bomber bases there were a menace to peace. Every rumor that the bases contain A-bomb stores has been accompanied by cries that Britain was thus being made a primary target in a war between Russia and the United States. The same thing is likely in Spain now, though there is not much chance that anything ex cept the Spanish government view will make' itself heard abroad. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1955 By J. M. ROBERTS Jr. Associated Press News Analyst TALLADEGA, Ala., Nov. 3 (JP) —College football should be abol ished “root and branch unless it is cleansed of hypocrisy, skuldug gery and cheating,” the head of the National Collegiate Athletic Association says. Dr. A. B. Moore, president of the NCAA and faculty chairman of athletics for many years at the University of Alabama, said his organization “has only scratched the surface” in uncovering un ethical practices in college foot ball. The NCAA head said-he has seen "many of ihe benefits from intercollegiate athletics" and he was advocating "operating on the patient and not killing him." Moore, who also is dean of the graduate school at Alabama, made the charges in a speech before the Talladega Quarterback Club. The NCAA head said blame for current evils is shared by alumni, parents of athletes, coaches and college officials. ... Parents, he said, tell their , sons to “go to the school that’ll pay you the most.” The NCAA, he continued, is hampered in its investigations because "everybody shuts up" when questions are asked. “The alumni,” Moore added, “would rather go on cheating than expose others who are cheating. You may read that the NCAA has caught 10 or 12 schools. But not nearly enough is being done. “I am speaking as one close to sports; one who loves sports; one engaged in and one who has been responsible for trying to train youths.” Moore said the Southeastern Conference's grant-in-aid program for athletes is not working because alumni insist on "under the table" assistance to players.
