State Retains
Cool Scuttle
By defeating the University of Pittsburgh Saturday for the sec
ond year in a row the University retains possession of the coveted
“Li’l Coal Scuttle” emblematic of football supremacy between the
two schools.
The tradition of presenting the scuttle to the winner of the an
nual football game between Pitts
burgh and Penn State was started
last year by the Interfraternity
Councils of■ the two schools. The
trophy resides at the winning
school for the year following the
game,
The large brass scuttle resem
bles coal buckets found in front
of fireplaces in many homes. The
bucket was chosen to symbolize
the soft coal school, Pittsburgh,
and the hard coal school, Penn
State.
The score and the date of each
game is engraved ,on the side of
the bucket starting with the first
game played 53 years ago. State
won the first game 32 to 0.
In this classic series—where
the favorite often fails to win as
happened this year Pittsburgh
holds a 28 to 21 edge on the Lions
with only two games ending in
ties.
Last year, with a-bowl bid in
their pockets, the Panthers were
dumped by the Lions 17 to 0. The
Panthers won in 1951 in the clos
ing minutes of play 13 to 7.
Other memorable games in the
recent series found bowl-bound
Penn State teams—both in 1940
and 1948—upset by the Panthers,

Her husband, Joe, was a liberal
arts major when Lois met him
here in her sophomore year. Since
her parents had moved from ..her
native town of Honesdale to Lig
onier after she left for school in
the •‘’all, Lois was
at a loss when
looking for a ride
to her new home
town. A mutual
friend arranged
a ride for her
with Joe, who
hails from Lig
onier.
Lois and Joe
were - arr i e d
Oct. 18, 1952, on _
her 20th birth- Mrs. Patterson
[day, and set up housekeeping in
a three-room apartment outside
of town. Lois says she enjoyed
keeping house and cooking, par
ticularly since “Jpe can eat until
it comes out his ears.'’
This summer, however, Uncle
Sam called Joe and at last report
he was at Fort Leonard Wood,
Xy., awaiting assignment.

Maintaining a 2.83 All-College
average for your first three years
is a hard enough job in itself, but
when combined with extra-cur
ricular activities and running a
three-room apartment, it becomes
an almost Herculean task.
Nevertheless, Lois Patterson,
seventh semester home economics
major, who recently received the
Borden Foundation Award for the
senior in home ec with the high
est average, has done just that.
In addition to the Borden
Award, Lois also won the Mer
rill-Palmer Honor, the privilege
of attending the Merrill-Palmer
School in Detroit for the spring
semester.
Since the honor covers no ex
penses, Lois plans to spend the
$3OO from the Borden prize to pay
for the cost of her trip to Detroit,
and to defray expenses at the
school.
Lois, who is now student teach
ing at New Enterprise Senior
High School, had barely left for
her new job when she had to re
turn to —'."yii's to receive awards
last week at the Home Economics

For Program
The eighth nation-wide com
petitive examination for the Na
vy’s University training program,
scheduled for Dec. 12, will be open
to high school seniors or grad
uates within age requirements.
The program is open to male
citizens of the U.S. between the
ages of 17 and 21. Applications are
available at high schools, colleges,
and Navy recruiting stations.
T. R. Kemmerer, principal of
the College Area Joint junior-sen
ior high school, is the civilian rep
resentative in this area and has
detailed information about exam
inations and the training program.
This .information may be ob
tained also from NROTC offices
on the campus.
Those who pass the aptitude
test will be interviewed and giv
en physical examinations. If they
qualify, their names will be sub
mitted to state and territorial se
lection committees.
Students finally selected, if ac
cepted by the NROTC college or
university of their choice, will be
enrolled and appointed midship
men. Successful candidates will
start their Navy careers in col
leges and universities across the
country in 1954.
They will get financial assist
ance that amounts to $5O a month
for such expenses as board and
room with tuition, textbooks and
other fees paid by the govern
ment.
The Navy expects to send about
2000 students into the program,
starting with the Fall semester
next year.
Simes Reports
No Pitt Cases
No complaints regarding stu
dent conduct at the Pitt game
have reached the Dean of Men’s
office to date, Frank. J. Simes,
dean of men, has reported.
Any such case would be report
ed immediately to the University
disciplinary committee, Wilmer
E. Kenworthy, director of student
affairs, said Thursday. The com
mittee is still working on the cases
of six students who were report
ed from Philadelphia for damage
done to hotel property during the
Penn game weekend.
Hat Society
Membership
Restricted
Restriction of membership to
25 members was one of three
amendments passed last week by
Skull and Bones, senior men’s
hat society, in completing revi
sion of the society’s constitution.
Present membership in the so
ciety is 35. Myron Enelow, treas
urer, said the purpose of the re
striction is to maintain the pres
tige of the gropp by making its
membership more select than it
now is and to eliminate doubts
about the recognition given to
students by the society.
Enelow said that the 25 men
haying the highest’ number of
points above a six-point minimum
will be tapped for the society re
gardless of the exact number of
points they receive.
The point system, based on
comparative rating on campus ac
tivities, was revised to include
as major activities the Associa
tion of Independent Men; Judicial
Board of .Review; Interfratemity
Council Board of Control; WDFM
station manager; Traffic Court:
Campus Chest committee and
Spring Week committee.
Enelow said the six activities
were re-evaluated because the so
ciety believed they were signifL
cant and required as much, if not
more, work than other major ac
tivities.
The society passed a regulation
that a member be dropped from
the society after three consecutive
absences from meetings without
valid excuses.

Naval Newsletter
Is Available Now
The Nittany Sea Lion, Naval
Reserve Officers’ Training Corps’
newsletter, . was distributed Fri
day for the first time this year.
The bi-weekly mimeograph pa
per contains four pages and is
printed free of charge for NROTC
students. '
The issue features an article by
the new Managing Editor, Byron
Fielding, about NROTC students
overseas on summer tours of dutv.
Among Lois’ many c itlvities
are Omicron Nu, home economics
honorary; Pi Lambda Theta, edu
cation honorary; Alpha Lambda
Delta, freshman women’s honor
ary; and Home Ec Club.
Last year Lois served as secre
tary for the province—two Home
Ec Club workshops at the Uni
versity. She is president of the
college club’s branc" of the
Pennsylvania H Economics
Association.
When asked how she manages
to make such high grades, Lois
had this advice to offer: “If ever
you. don’t understand something
in class, don’t be -fraid to go up
to the prof after class and ask his
advice.” She sa-'d that very, often
classmates might accuse you of
apple-polishing, but the practice
alway pays off as far as grades
are concerned.
After she graduates in June,
Lois plans to teach until Joe fin
ishes his Army life and can com
plete his education. Put after that
she wants to settle down in a
house in the country, with “lots
and lots of gray, alley-type cats.”

Lost Pitt Tags
Still a Mystery
The whereabouts of the Beat
Pitt tags, scheduled to be handed
out last Thursday by Cwens, soph
omore women’s hat society, is still
a mystery, Jeajn Yemm, president,
said yesterday.
Miss Yemm said that no infor
mation has been learned about an
unknown coed' who reportedly
picked up the tags at the Athletic
Store Tuesday, one day before a
member of Cwens was supposed
tp collect the tickets for distribu
tion on campus in accordance with
Beat Pitt Week.
Edward Brown, owner of the
A Store,' said yesterday that a
small number of tickets weire
handed °ut to students at the store
Friday.
About 3000 tags; were given stu
dents at the Metzger Store Friday,
Fred Metzger, owner, said.
The 2000 white tags had been
stored at the A Store last year and
were scheduled to be picked up
last Wednesday by a member of
Cwens. However, Miss Yemm
said, when the Cwen went to the
store for the tickets., she was told
that a coed had already taken the
cards the preceding day.
Miss Yemm said she was cer
tain the unknown coed was not a
member of Cwens or of any wom
en’s hat society.

TUESE&?, IfQTOiPER 24, 1953
Dr. Eisenhower based his re
port On a 36-day visit to ten South
American countries last summer
as the special representative of
President Eisenhower.
Slate Trade Policies
Dr. Eisenhower’s recommenda
tions included: . ,
1, That the United -States pur
sue stable and consistenttrade
policies!
. 2. That it adopt a basic ma
terials stockpiling program which
will bolster failing Latin Ameri
can markets.
3. Study whether tax: laws
Should be revised to encourage
private investment south of the
border.
4. Make sopnd loans for worth- J
while economic projects. ,
5. That President Eisenhoweit
Stand ready to make grants of
surplus U.S. food when people
face starvation.
‘ 6. Stand ready with technical
aid in resource deyelopipent.
7. That the U.S. technical cco
operation program be expanded
to improve health, education; and
agricultural standards.
8. That the U.S.. continue sup
port of the interorgahization of
American states.
9. That the President, Congress,
and the U.S. people take a long
range view of considering how
relations with Latin America can
be strengthened.
Communist Infiltration
Dr. Eisenhower stated that “one
American nation h^ s succumbed
to .Comm p n i s t infiltration”
and warned that the Reds are
active in undermining other re
publics in the Western Hemi-?
sphere. He did not mention, that
country .by name. “The possible
conquest of a Latin American na
tion would not, so far as anyone
can foresee, by direct assault,” he
said.
“It would come, rather, through
the insidious process of infiltra
tion, conspiracy, spreading of lies,
and the undermining of free in
stitutions, one by one.”
Dr. Eisenhower said, however,
that -with the exception of one
republic, all the other American
countries share in this country's
desire for peace, freedom, and in
dependence and will continue to
cooperate effectively in world af
fairs.
Principal Recommendation
The principal recommendation,
one for which every Latin Amer
ican country had asked, is that
the United States adopt and ad
here to trade policies \yith Latin -
America which have stability and “
with a minimum of restrictions
oil the imposition of increased tar
iffs or quotas. ■
Calling this the “outstanding
requirement” for any sound Lat
in American policy, Dr. Eisen
hower said that everywhere he
found Latin American officials,
“concerned about our tariff poli
cies and apprehensive about opr
restrictions on imports of pe
troleum, lead, zinc, wool, and
other agricultural products.”
'Can Help in Case of War'
Dr. Eisenhower pointed out
that in the event of a general war,
Latin America can do more than
serve, as a base for raw material.
Its nations can help guard the sea
lanes leading to arid from the
Panama canal, provide bases as
