AEC Chairman Lewis Strauss has hailed the new move as one aimed at “improving our ability to defend ourselves against the ef fects of atomic weapons,” but he said the exchange “does not en vision any disclosures about the nature of our atomic weapons themselves.” An AEC information spokes man said the new move would mean, “updating” Britain and Ca- FOR A BETTER PENN STATE Penn State Christian Association, ROTC Seniors To Be Officers The Department of Military Science and Tactics has announc ed all college seniors enrolled in the Army ROTC program will, be commissioned in the Army soon after their graduation in June.

The potential power of Amer ica’s latest models is clearly im plied in a recent statement by AEC Commissioner Thomas Mur ray.

A 1 Michaels,. Lion scout, called Pitt “a - vastly better team than its 3-4-1 record would indicate.” Michaels, who scouted the Pan thers in their losses to North western and Minnesota as well as their wins over Virginia and North Carolina State, said Pitt’s defense was sound, even without the in jured Eldred Kraemer—an all- American last year.

The amendments must be read at the next meeting before action can be taken on them. The first would permit decis ions of the elections committee to be appealed to cabinet. At the present time there is no appeal for decisions of the elections committee. The other would give the Inter fraternity Council Board of Con trol and the Association of Inde pendent Men’s Judicial Board of Review responsibility for penal izing students for conduct detri mental to the fraternities and independents of the University. This would make the Board of Control similar to the Judicial Board of Review, which is now responsible for detrimental inde pendent behavior.
