' Students Should Watch Cabinet in Action Students who would like to see how student .government at Penn State operates may do so tonight by -attending the meeting of All-Uni versity Cabinet. Cabinet will meet at 8 p.m. in the large conference room at the back of Old Main lounge. By attending the meeting a student, regard less of the length of time he has been at the University, will have a chance to see his rep- resentatives in action. Each student is repre sented by several persons on cabinet. Joe University, who is a third semester elec trical engineering student, for instance, is rep resented by the All-University president, vice president, and secretary-treasurer. These three officers represent all students. Also legislating for him on the 24-man body are the president of the Association of Independent Men, for Joe is an independent, president of the Athletic Advisory Board, sophomore class president, president of the Engineering Student Council, and chairman of the Board of Dramatics and Forensics, for Joe is on the debate squad. Joe has eight persons, therefore, to keep his eye on. World Series: As We Wait With Baited Breath One-eighth of the globe’s people got the word yesterday: the New York Jints ain’t dead-yet. Via .ticker-tape, war-hoops, and the Voice of America, the world's population yesterday laid aside worries of a nine-power conference to consider "Say Hey" Willie May's big stick and Bob Lemon's aged but agile delivery. The odds are on the Tribe, but this is the World Series. Odds don’t count. (Take yester day, for example.) What counts? A nod from the crafty head of Leo Durocher, a snap of the fingers of A 1 Lopez —duly recorded in flickers on a million glass tubes and screeches over a billion radio sets'— these matter. Leo's lip whips more wind than Hurricane Carol could ever muster. A swift bunt shakes the world more than any typhoon. Cleveland’s Municipal Stadium and the Polo Grounds of Manhattan are the world’s capitols. The na tional diet: hot dogs and peanuts. This fickle world today is divided into two classes: fans and non-fans. Each class thinks the other mad. "What matters it," grumbles the non-fan, "if Sal Maglie did win 14 games and did lose seven games this summer? Why must I submit to blasting reminders that the Cleveland team beat Brooklyn back in 1920? Why can't I move Football Team Deserves a Good Senddff The bam door should not be locked after the horse has been stolen. Nor should Penn Staters assure their football team "We knew you could do it all the time"—after the game has been won. Penn State last Saturday beat Illinois and this was a surprise. Enthusiasm brought several thousand people to Recreation Hall to welcome home the victorious team. Had the Nittany Lions lost, would there have been a welcoming party? We doubt it. Experience has shown that Penn State stu dents are prone to be joyous after a victory— particularly after a surprise win. And, like wise, before- a tough game, they’re prone to sit on their hands.

PENNSYLVANIA Helen Coed, who is a sixth semester educa tion student, a sorority member, and on the staff of Froth, also has a number of representa tives on' cabinet. Her ideas are carried out by the All-University officers, president of Wom en’s Student Government Association, Pan hellenic Council president, Education Student Council president, Women’s Recreation Associ ation president, junior class president, and chairman of the Board of Publications. Students are automatically represented •by class standing, sex, curriculum, fraternity sta tus, and activities. Probably the fastest way to become acquainted with the thinking and rea soning of those persons who supposedly are carrying his views back to cabinet is to attend a meeting and listen to debate. Any student who has attended a cabinet meeiing_ knows that the proceedings are gener ally quite interesting, and business transacted on the cabinet floor is of some consequence to each student. Meetings are public, open to all observers. Students deserve to give themselves a first hand view of government in action. without hearing the' unending babble of base ball?" The fan, he gasps. Blasphemy such as this— such dogged indifference, such reactionary i apathy—is it for real? Can it be? Great Scott, man, history is being made! Through it all, the razor blade people inquire as to how our stock of shaving supplies is standing up. And the judicious men in blue'" gabardine stand and squat, glare and blare, acting as a Supreme Court-on-the-green, passing down de cisions of great moment. This is the World Series. There was one last year. There -will be another next year. Ahead lies a long winter with only the Sporting News, beloved bible of patient fandom, to remind us that another Spring, another season, approaches. This matters not the least. The World Series is today, so make room on page one, polish your glasses, cleanse your ears, study statistics, prepare to predict, to speculate, to explain, to re-hash, to verbally manage the Mighty Nine. The fan is King, the non-fan an uncompre hendible psychological mishap, the umpire a sourpuss, the sports announcer Mercury, the player a warrior, the manager an Einstein, the field a battleground. Anyone have an extra ticket?' —Mike Feins ilber This is ihe way things are, pep-wise at the University, but not the way things should be. Good sense dictates that we express our hope and our loyalty for the team before —not after—the game. And a football team with a sincere vote of confidence behind it is bound to perform better on the field. Players have testified to this. Thus we urge that a crowd—a loyal crowd, a sincere crowd, an enthusiastic crowd—show up at 8 tonight to send the football squad into Orangeland, seeking victory number two. Spirit is more than cheering for the winner. It is also supporting the team, victory or defeat. Penn State, tonight, has a chance to prove it has spirit. ' Gazette...

Just what is going to happen to this melting-pot campus of ours? One thing we won’t have to worry about is what the inevitable new buildings will look like; nothing around here matches now, except McElwain and Simmons. But where are the necessary housing, units going to be built? The people in College Heights are very fond of their houses, and no students would enroll at all if the Comer were removed. So, a.-few minutes with a slide rule and plane geometry text will show you the answer: the golf course and the farms must go. If dormitories are built on the edge of the farms, gradually ex panding toward Beliefonte, new classroom buildings and al chemy and astrology ■ labs will have to invade our fair fairways. The distance between the sec ond hole and the poultry build ings, as anyone knows, is too far to walk in ten minutes. Therefore, we have two alter natives to consider in solving this lengthy problem. One, the time between classes' must be lengthened to one-half hour, with classes scheduled around the clock'and coed dorm hours abolished. Two, bus service be tween dorms and classroom must be provided. But let us go back. If dormi tories take over the green pas tures beyond Nittany and Pollock, we must provide a new home for the college cows. Since only one will fit into the Old Main tower at once, probably the best solution would be to tether the Penstate This’s and Penstate That’s to the trees on campus, changing the brass plaques to read: American Elm and Holstein-Fresian, ameri canus elmus moo. A second agricultural problem raised is the disposition of the crcfp experiments, but this endeavor is obviously outdated and will ad vance greatly with a convenient new system of window-box farm ing. The department of food ser vice will also be able to economi2e greatly by this modern method. Having satisfied the require ments of the College of Agricul ture, let, us return to the distance problem. With 24-hour scheduling, students would be milling around the campus at all hours. This would necessitate resident house mothers in every building, in ad dition to a permanent full-time professional police force equipped for inter-bushary warfare. Per haps the better solution is the bus service suggestion. (Students would still not be allowed to drive on Pollock road during class hours.) Buses would leave at reg ular intervals from Engineering D and Patterson Hall and circle the campus both clockwise and •counterclockwise. No s t-uicat THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 30. 1954 By MARCIE MacDONALD would be excused for lateness to class because he missed his bus, however. With the large increase in the student body, the activities of the University will undergo changes equally radical as those in the physical makeup. New hat societies must be formed.to recognize students that the ex isting ones did not have space for. Some of these will be named? Bell. Book and Candle; Flame and Flesh; and Aplegust indejugishquilies. Blue Band will be dissolved and replaced by four hew ones that will al ternate the campus musical re sponsibilities; they will'be called Pink, Chartreuse, Mauve, and . Magenta ' Bands. Students will pay, in a lump miscellaneous • ■fee. for compulsory membership in the Outing Club, and Leon ides will split into two groups, Leo and Nides.. So this all sounds very ridicu lous, you say. Don’t’be too sure. The Board of Trustees has ap proved plans for’ a contemporary chapel housed in a Georgian ex terior. Who’s ridiculous?
