Two Discuss
Name Change
Pro and Con
Harold D. Albright, member of
the Friends of State College, last
night stressed tradition, senti
ment, inconvenience, confusion,
and the “undemocratic manner”
in which he said the proposed
name Mt. Nittany was chosen as
the reasons the name change
should be defeated at the polls
Tuesday.
M. Nelson McGeary, member of
the Committee of' 50, said the
name Mt. Nittany shoufd be
adopted because of the great wor
ry 'the problem is causing the
University administration and the
confusion elsewhere as to wheth
er the University is a college or
university. •
The meruspoke at a meeting of
the community development com
mittee at the high school library.
Approximately 35 people attended
the meeting. •
—McGeaiy said-- the - University
administration and public rela
tions officials feel trie confusion
surrounding the status of the Uni
versity is growing worse instead
of better. If the University estab
lishes its own post office the bor- :
ough will lose much publicity, he
said.
Albright said that changing the
name of the town would create
.even more confusion. The name
change is not vital to the. Unive
rsity, he said.
The University will eventually
be accepted as- such through rec
ognition of its activities, Albright
said.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 (TP) —President Eisenhower tonight de
cided to make an eleventh-hour, flying campaign foray aimed at
stirring voters out of what he called apathy and winning a Republi
can victory in next Tuesday’s contest for control of Congress.
The White House announced that he would fly on Friday to
Cleveland, Detroit, Louisville,
Ky., and Wilmington, Del., ad
dressing airport crowds at each
of the cities. He will leave here
early Friday morning and return
Friday night.
The cities will be visited in the
order named, but the exact time
of the President’s arrival will not
be announced until tomorrow.
However, Seri. Homer Ferguson
(R-Mich.), said at Detroit that the
President would reach there about
noon.
Each of the four states the Pres
ident will visit has a Senate race
that could hold the key to control
one of the next Senate. Two of
them, Ohio and Michigan, also
elect governors. A total of 50
House guests are at stake in the
four states.
In Ohio, Rep. George H. Bend
er (R) is in a hot battle with Sen.
Thoriias A. Burke (D) for the re
mainder of the late Sen. Robert.

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
Cabinet to Vote
On Amendment
All-University Cabinet tonight will hear for the third time, and vote on an amendment
to its constitution proposed by Benjamin Sinclair, chairman of the Board of Dramatics and
Forensics.
Sinclair’s amendment was altered last week by John Speer, All-University vice pres
ident, but the chair ruled that the change did not change the essential meaning of the
amendment and an additional reading was unnecessary.
The amendment now reads that the vice president of an organization shall replace the
president in case he is unable to attend a cabinet meeting and that the hierarchy as estab
lished by the constitution of the organization shall determine further succession.

Grievance Panel Meeting
Scheduled for Weekend
The three man grievance panel set up in August to arbitrate
grievances, between University employes and the University will
meet here tomorrow and Saturday.
However, there seems to be some question as to which of the
two employes unions will be the representative at the sessions.
[ George Dixon, president of Lo
cal 417, Building Service Em
ployes International, said yester
day that he had sent a letter
Tuesday to President Milton S.
Eisenhower, asking that, the panel
be continued under the name of
Local 417.
67 Requests Panel
The original request for the
panel came from bocal 67, Ameri
can Federation of State, County,
and Municipal Employes. How
ever, three weeks, ago, over 300
members of Local 67 voted to dis
affiliate with the group and join
the building service employes
group.
Dixon said he felt that since
the same people are represented
by Local 417 as were represented
by Local- 67 before the split, the
panel should be continued under
•the sponsorship of Local 417.
He added the letter stated that
in the event the University saw
fit to continue with the panel un-
