A solid favorite to win its
fifth game of the season, Penn
State pits its robust running
game against air-minded Holy
Cross this afternoon at Beaver
Field.
The Lions, back home after
two straight road games, are
12-point favorites to whip the
dangerous Crusaders from Wor
cester, Mass.
It's band day at Penn State and
despite wintery weather a crowd
of 20,000 'is expected to watch
about 4000 high school bandsmen
in a gala half-time show.
The kickoff is set for 1:30 p.m.
Lion coach Rip Engle, whose
team battered Penn, 35-13 last
week, will be counting on a rip
ping ground offense that reached
its peak against the ' Quakers.
Moore May Set Record
Led by all-American candidate
Lenny Moore, who may break the
Penn State rushing mark today,
the Nittanies are expected to trav
el mostly by foot while Dr. Eddie
Anderson's team is expected to
put on the heaviest aerial show
the Lions have seen this fall.
Moore, with 717 rushing yards
under his belt, and right half
backs Billy Kane and Ron Youn
ker, form a swashbuckling trio
that has- been a devestating wea
pon for the Lions. Younker proved
himself a ball toting demon last
season and became increasingly
better this year with the flashy
Kane at his heels.
Kane Ran for 130•
Against Penn, Kane replaced
Younker, who was injured in the
starting slot and ran for 130 yards
and one touchdown. The perform
ance earned him another start
ing berth today but it's a good
bet that he'll be sharing the wing
back duties with Younker.
Injuries, however, will force at
least one change in the Lion
starting lineup. Tackle Otto
Kneidinger, progressively becom
ing Penn State's top lineman, is
still hampered by a badly bruised
ankle and pulled leg muscle. He'll
be available for limited duty, but
215-pound Gene Danser will get
the starting assignment.

Ike to Consult
Party Leaders
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 (JP)—President Eisenhower, described as
eager to get on "cordial and constructive" working terms with the
Democrats, today called leaders of both parties in Congress to a con
ference on foreign policy Nov. 17. . .
While this is not the first time that a White House briefing has
been held for both Democratic
and Republican leaders, it gave
new emphasis to Eisenhower's ex
pressed wish for good relations.
Wednesday, the day after the
voters decided to replace Repub
licans with Democrats in control
of the new Congress, Eisenhower
said he would consult with lead
ers of both parties on both domes
tic and foreign issues.
It was Sen. William T. Know
land of California, who will step
out as the Senate majority leader
in January, who pictured the
President as eager to establish
"close, cordial and constructive"
relations with the new Demo
cratic leadership.

their plans. Rayburn will again
be speaker of the House in the
84th Congress and his guest to
day was a fellow Texan, Sen:
Lyndon B. Johnson, who will once
more become the Senate's major
ity leader.
Johnson's office at Austin said
he tentatively planned to "call a
meeting of the Senate democratic
policy committee on his return to
Washington. He arranged to fly
here tonight.
"It will be followed by a meet
ing of the ranking Democrats who
will assume the committee chair
manships," the Johnson statement
said. "They, in turn, will be re
quested to appoint task forces to
explore . . . and work out the, de

Like Eisenhower, Johnson- and
Rayburn have promised to co
operate with the opposition when
they think that is best for the
country.
Democrats are going ahead with
their plans to take over, despite
the fact that they can count on a
bare majority in the senate, which
could be wiped out should there
be a death of any Democratic
senator in a state with a Repub
lican governor.

Miss Cowden, sponsored by
Delta Chi, was one of five final

Ann Lederman, and Jean Yemm
served in her court. The group
was introduced by Earl Seely,
Junior class vice president.
Miss Cowden is a member of
the Daily Collegian • circulation
staff, LaVie staff, and the Future
Teachers of America. In her fresh
man year she belonged to the
bowling club and was on the
Froth Promotion board.
She is a member of Alpha Gam

in the Dairy Queen contest and in
high school she was in the court
of honor for the Senior Prom.
When she's graduated, Miss
Cowden hopes to do work in edu
cational guidance.
Miss Cowden was very sur
prised when she found she was
to be sponsored by Delta Chi for
the contest, and equally thrilled
upon being named the queen.

Segre*atts-n
The April Supreme Court decision outlawing segregation in the
public schools is "like a plunge into a cold shower," Ralph Bunche,
director of the United Nations Trusteeship department, and 1950
Nobel Peace Prize winner, said in an informal interview Thursday
afternoon.
'Continuing his analogy, Bunche said, "Once the intitial shock
is over, things won't seem so un
bearable after all."
He said he felt sure that the
American public would accept the
segregation ruling as it has ac
cepted so many new. frontiers in
racial integration in the past. He
cited the example of New York
State's fair employment practices
act as an excellent example of
public reaction
Prevents Discrimination
This law, like similar ones in
other states and cities; prevents
employers from discriminating in
hiring because of the race, creed,
or nationality of the applicant.
"At first," he said, "there was
vigorous protest. But now we
find that there are very few ap
peals to the FEPC board. Em
ployers have accepted it."
Bunche discounted the threats
of several Southern states to
abolish their public schools in
favor of white-only state subsi
dized private schools.

Council Studies
3 Revisions
To Constitution
The Chemistry-Physics Student
Council Wednesday night studied
possible revisions to the council
constitution. Joseph Eberly, con
constitution.
Joseph Eberly, constitution re
vision committee chairman, sug
gested that once a member is
elected to the council in April, he
will serve only until June of the
following year. According to the
present constitution, members are
elected to serve until their grad
uation.
The committee also recom
mended that the necessary aver
age for council membership be
raised to 1.2, Presently it is 1.0.
Eberly said the committee fav
ored a revision in the distribution
of members according to class and
curriculum. This revision would
change senior representation from
12 to six; sophomore from four
to seven; and freshman from two
to six. Juniors would continue to
elect eight representativies.
The committee suggested that
the 27 council members should
be divided among the folloWing
curriculums: physics, four repre
sentatives; pre-medical, six; chem
istry and commercial chemistry,
five; science, four; and chemical
engineering, eight.
Council members will vote on
constitutional revisions Nov. 17.

through which they hope to scare
the public," he said. "I -do not be
lieve that any state would ac
tually abolish its public schools.
Public education is too integral
a part of our democracy."
Smokes Continually
Bunche smoked continuously
during the interview, lighting his
cigarettes with a rare Italian en
graved American lighter.
From racial issues, the topic of
conversation switched to the prob
lem of the United States recog
nizing of Communist China.
"The idea of the United States
recognizing Red China at the
present time is absurd," Bunche
said. "Until a peace is reached in
Korea, we are technically still at
war against Red China."
To accept the Peiping regime
as the lawful government of Chi
na would be "to put the law of
force above the force of law,'
Bunche said.
