An amendment to the All-University constitution which would set prodedure for
substitutions on All-University Cabinet will be proposed tonight by Robert Dennis, presi
dent of the Association of Independent Men.
Dennis' amendment states that Cabinet will consist of the regular members or their
duly appointed substitUtes.
Benjamin Sinclair, president of the Board of Dramatics and Forensics, had previously
Pogal to Ask Action
On State Handbills
Gordon Pogal, Lion party clique chairman, said yesterday
he will ask the All-University Elections Committee for "some
tangible action" on the handbills which were circulated by
State party Monday.
At the same time, Ernest Famous, elections committee
chairman, said .he could find nothing in the elections code
which the handbills violated. He
added that "As far as I can see,
the violation, if any, would have
to be considered under the 'spirit'
clause of the elections code.' i
The clause to which Famous
was referring provides that elec
tions committee shall have the
right to act upon any campaign
methods which it considers to be
a violation of the elections code.
The committee will meet at 5:15
p.m. today in the Student Govern
ment room, 204 Old Main
Handbills Question
The cause of the controversy .
were handbills which were issued
as a supplement to the State party
platform, explaining the planks.
Also on the handbills was a sam
ple ballot with the names of
`,State" and "Lyin' " parties writ
ten on it.
Pogal said Tuesday night he
felt the use of the word "Lyin' "
was an obvious reference to the
Lion party. He said yesterday he
had not yet decided what specific
charge he would bring to elections
committee.
Vote Penalties
Under the elections code, a par
-Ity can be assessed a penalty of
no more than 100 or less than 10
votes on each candidate for a vio
lation of •campaign rules.
Rae DelleDonne, State party
clique chairman, said Tuesday she
had cleared the use of the hand
bills with Famous. She said she
could not change the handbills
because they had been already
printed in Pittsburgh,
Handbills Ok'd If—
Famous said he told Miss Delle-
Donne she could use the handbills,
because of the time element in
volved, if she was willing to take
any consequences which might
arise.
Pogal yesterday termed the
handbills "a direct discredit to the
political system on campus and an
insult to the intelligence of the
student voters . . ."
In a statement last night, Miss
DelleDonne said:
"To the close impartial observer,
it should be quite obvious that
the Lion party has initiated a
smoke screen campaign of smear
tactics to divert attention from
their platform and political in
adequacies.
"Conveniently forgetting the
fact that they started this smear
through .fflustrations and deroga

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
By DON SHOEMAKER
Ike Stays Calm
Down in
Of 'QS.S-'o3mber
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 (il 3 )
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
took a calm and nonbelligerent
stand today on the latest Russian
plane incident. He, said it occurred
in a disputed border area and
that the Russians seem more con
ciliatory this time.
Eisenhower nevertheless said
the American photo bomber shot
down off Japan last weekend by
Red fighters had a right to be
there. He said he approved the
protest which the State Depart
ment has made.
The President took his stand at
a news conference. The first ques
tion dealt with the shooting down
of the American pla n e, and
whether there is anything that
can be done to guard against such
incidents and to force reparations.
In reply, Eisenhower said that
this -- ras a ver Y . complicated,
tricky problem. He said that the
