PAGE TWO Sturdevant to Select Foods Committee Robert Sturdevant, chairman of the All-University Foods Committee, will appoint members to his committee, All-Uni, versity President Jesse Arnelle said yesterday. Confusion over who was to appoint the committee mem bers arose when Sturdevant was commissioned to appoint his committee at about the same time that Donald Bell, Debate Ban Is Attacked By Senator Sen. J. William Fulbright (D.- Ark.), Sunday declared the de cision of the Army and Naval academies to ban the intercol legiate debate topic was "indica tive of the low estate to which we have fallen where freedom of expression is concerned." "I think they should be allowed to debate it," Fulbright said, in speaking of the debate topic "Re solved: That the United States should extend diplomatic recog nition to the Communist govern ment of China." He continued, "I think there's no great merit in ignorance." West Point explained the with drawal of cadets from debating the topic in a statement declaring: "It is the Departmerit of the Army policy not to have U.S.M.A. cadets involved in debate on such a controversial subject on which, in any event, •national policy has been established." West Point suggested as an al ternative topic "The Merits of Agricultural Subsidies." President Dwight D. Eisenhow er, one of West Point's most prominent graduates, in a press conference last week agreed with Fulbright that he personally would not have banned the debate topic. Eisenhower said he felt the United States system "could stand on its own feet and would be up held in the face of open and ex haustive debate." The Nairy took the stand that debating the affirmative side of the topic would be tantamount to upholding "the Communist phil osophy and party line." It stated that debating the af firmative would also make them liable to misrepresentation as well as "providing the Reds a tre mendous propaganda device." Meanwhile the Princeton Uni versity Debate Panel sent a tele gram to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles appealing to_him— as a graduate of Princeton—to take a stand "against the super vision of topics in the service aca demies." Earlier, at the University, For ensic Council passed a resolution protesting the ban of the topic. It sent a copy of the resolution to th e Speech Association of America, which selects the inter collegiate debate topic. "The ban is opposed," the reso lution declares, "to the best in terests of the nation, debate, and the ideals of democratic free speech." At the time four Nebraska state supported teacher's colleges ban ned the topic Irvin Weiner, For ensic Council president, said the ban had no rational basis.

According to a resolution re cently passed by All-University Cabinet, CPIC is to interview all committee applicants and submit recommended candidates' names to the All-University President who will then make the appoint ments. Arnelle explained that the change in procedure was being made because of "the urgency of the situation." He said he felt that CPIC would not be able to con sider applications and make rec ommendations in the little time available. He explained that it is impor tant that the food committee be appointed as soon as pomible so that' it may handle the numerous complaints on food service which have been arising. Complaints on various aspects of foo,d service have come through Women's Student Government As sociation, the Association of Inde pendent Men, and letters to the Daily Collegian. Arnelle said that at this time CPIC was receiving applications for Spring Week committees and would not have had the time to consider the food committee ap plications also. He said he felt sure that in the future when CPIC had been in operation for a longer time it would be able to handle all com mittee applications. He explained that CPIC would probably inter view applicants for ' next year•'s foods committee this spring. As established in the new appoint ment policy, Sturdevant was ' named committee chairman by Arnelle. Sturdevant will include on his committee those persons recom mended by Patricia Ellis, WSGA president. Miss Ellis is naming one woman from each dormitory hav ing dining hall facilities to serve on the foods committee.

PETNiIki'SYI.VANIA Student Conduct At Pitt Game - Dean of Men Frank J. SimeS yesterday congratulated .the stu dent body for the conduct it displayed at the football game in Pittsburgh. The dean said he had not re ceiVed- any reports of bad con duct as a result of the weekend of the Pitt-Penn State game Nov. 20.

Skating Rink To \ Be Opened Within 2 Weeks The ice-skating rink will prob ably open within the next two weeks, John Miller, chief drafts man for the physical plant, said yesterday. The rink was to open this week, bit Miller said there were a num ber of small details to be clealled up before skating could begin. He said that there was some carpentry work to be completed and some painting to be done. He said also that electrical work was not quite complete and some work was to be done on the freez ing unit. The installation of the freezing pipes under the rink surface is complete, but the freezing ma chinery must be tested and ad justed this week. Miller said he felt sure the rink would open sometime during the first half of December. The first date announced for the opening was Nov: 15, but the op ening was delayed at that time because the installation\ of the freezing unit was not progress ing as rapidly as had been ex pected. The opening was then set for tomorrow but was moved ahead again because of the several con struction details which must still be completed.
