Stradivarius Violin
Presents Problem
Tossy Spivakovsky's biggest problem while he is on tour
is the care of his 1721 Stradivarius which he always carries
personally. Porters can be trusted with the luggage contain
ing his white tie and tails, but not with the priceless Strad.
Between tours, it is kept in the
music room of his home in Wilton,
Conn., where a thermostat keeps
the temperature between 68 and
70 degrees.
SpiVakovsky, Russian-born vio
linist, will open the Community
Concert Series at 8:30 Monday
night in Schwab auditorium.

New Fraternity
Given Approval
By Committee
Delta Sigma Lambda was of
ficially chartered today as the
University's fifty second social
fraternity by the Senate Commit
tee on. Student Affairs. .
The fraternity had its incep
tion last spring when 14 members
of the Pennsylvania State Uni
versity DeMolay Club petitioned
the committee for permission to
organize as a social fraternity.
Since then, the group's member
ship has grown to 20 and includes
both DeMolay members and non
members.
The group was chartered as a
local fraternity, and expects to
apply for admission to Interfrat
ernity Council in the future.
Delta Sigma Lambda was form
erly a national DeMolay frater
nity, but the national was dis
solved in 1936. At that time, some
of its "20 chapters were absorbed
by Theta Chi. The University
chapter is not connected with the
former national group. The name
was used because the chapter was
begun by members of the De-
Molay Club. The group occupies
the old Omega Psi Phi house.
Kent 'Kiehl, fifth semester phy
sics major, is president of the
chapter.
Food Service—
(Continued from page one)
the question session came when
Stanley Juras, president of West
Dorm Council, and Bruce Lieske,
AIM treasurer, asked Proffitt if
food service was a profit making
organization and if it had made a
profit last year.
Profitt said it was not a profit
organization and, he added that
if the fact that food service is
responsible for financing and
keeping up all its buildings and
equipment were considered, food
service had barely been able to
make ends meet last year.

tries. This recognition does not
imply approval.
The Forensics Council, com
posed of nine members of the
men's and women's debate teams
appointed by the All-University
president, will hold a future meet
ing to plan further action of the
Penn State debate team in taking
its stand against the ban.
Cabinet Meeting Canceled
All-University Cabinet will not
meet tonight. The next meeting
of Cabinet will be Dec. 2.
For his first number, Spivakov
sky will play three movements
from Beethoven's Sonata in G ma
jor,. Opus 30.
Three movements from Sym
phony Espagnole by Edouard Lalo
will follow.
After the intermission, he will
present "Prelude et Ronde des
Princesses" (from "Firebird") by
the contemporary Russian com
poser, Igor Stravinsky, followed
by "Hopak" (Russian Folk Dance)
by Moussorgsky, as arranged by
Rachmaninoff.
The program will also include
"Aus der Heimat" by Bedrich
Smetana, and "Waltz and Celebra
tion" by Copland.
Spivakovsky will conclude the
program with "Introduction" and
"Rondo Capriccioso" by Saint-
Sams.
Born in Odessa, in southern
Russia, Spivakovsky was taken to
Berlin before he was two years
old. There he studied violin un
der Arrigo Serato, and later un
der Willi Hess. He first appeared
in public at the age of 10,
and as "wunderfind" concertized
throughout Europe, winning ac
claim as a soloist with some of
Europe's foremost orchestras.
Spivakovsky first attracted at
tention in America when he per
formed the Violin Concerto of
Bela Bartok with the Cleveland
and Pittsburgh Symphony Or
chestras so successfully that Ar
thur Rodzinski, then at the helm
of the New York Philharmonic-
Symphony, invited him to appear
with America's oldest orchestra in
a performance of the work in the
fall of 1943. This performance
launched his concert career as solo
recitalist and guest star with most
of America's major orchestras.

NSA increase
Is Approved
By Ed Council
Education Student Council
voted Tuesday night to approve
the proposed budget increase for
the National Student Association.
The proposal calls for raising
the NSA appropriation from $6OO
to $7OO for this year. Final ap
proval must come from All-Uni
versity Cabinet.
. NSA coordinator Janice Holm
asked for the increase because
expenses of the delegates attend
ing the NSA convention last sum
mer left NSA with an operating
budget of about $lB.OO.
The Agriculture Student Coun
cil several weeks ago voted
against the proposed increase,
saying it felt the money could
better be used for student scholar
ships.
The Mineral Industries Student
Council also voted against the
increase, but according to Presi
dent Charles Larson, will recon
sider the entire NSA issue at its
next meeting.
Judith Hance was chosen as
the council's representative for
the United Nations Seminar. The
seminar, sponsored by the coun
cil, the political science depart
ment, and the University Chris
tian, Association, will be held in
New York City, Dec. 2-5.
Nancy Scofield and Barbara
Easter were appointed to investi
gate housing' conditions for re
turning student teachers.
Student Announcers
Students interested in becoming
announcers for WDFM, student
radio station, can be auditioned
Dec. 5.
Audition applications may be
sent to 307 Sparks by noon, Dec. 1.
Silva on Elections
GOP Lost Support
On McCarthy Issue
Had the United States Senate censured Sen. Joseph R.
McCarthy before the elections, the Republican party, would
have gained votes, Dr. Ruth C. Silva, assistant professor of
political science, asserted Tuesday night.
Speaking before the Young Republicans Club, Dr. Silva
declared five candidates supported by McCarthy were de-
feated in the election while can
didates who took a stand against
him were elected.
McCarthy, she said, came out
of the election with a "batting
average of .000."
Dr. Silva, whose election pre
dictions were published by the
New York Times, said she con
sidered it "amazing" the Republi
cans dropped only 17 seats in the
House of Representatives. In a
normal mid-term election, she ex
plained, the majority party can
expect to drop 40 seats in the
House.
In only two elections has the
party in power lost fewer seats,
she pointed out.
There were 48 marginal House
seats, and in 55 per cent of the
districts the Congressional candi
dates had trailed behind President
Dwight D. Eisenhower in the 1952
election.
Assuming the personal appeal
of President Eisenhower account
ed for Republican victories in
these districts, she said, the GOP
could have expected to. lose 24
seats this fall.
The large number of upsets in
the Senate have little significance,
Dr. Silva said. The upsets came as
11-TURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1954
a result of split-ticket voting, as,
for example, in California, where
a Republican Senator and a Dem
ocratic, governor were elected.
The flexible farm program ad
vocated by Secretary of Agricul
ture Ezra Taft Benson was vindi
cated in the election, Dr. Silva
asserted. Candidates in farm areas
backing his program were; in gen
eral, elected and those against his
program were defeated, she said.
Dr. Silva's conclusion about the
election: the voters want a mid
dle-of-the-road legislative policy.
