Name Issue
In Borough
Is Dormant
By MIKE MILLER
The bol . .ough name change issue
appears to be dormant—at least
for the time being.
-, Representatives of the three
major factions which backed the
proposed name of Mt. Nittany in
November's general elections yes
terday either declined to comment
or expressed the belief that a new
name will not be on the ballot
when the voters next go to the
polls.
Jerome Weinstein, editor of the
Centre Daily Times, which back
ed the proposed name on its edi
torial page, said he felt that
eventually a new name will be
chosen for the borough.
Post Office Name
In an editorial in the Times two
days ago, he speculated that the
name of the proposed University
post office may even someday
supplant the present name of the
borough.
Weinstein said, however, that
he did not believe a new name
for the borough would be pro
posed at the next election.
He pointed to the fact that in
the last election the vote against
Mt. Nittany was heaviest in the
older sections of the borough. In
the newer areas where the young
er residents live, he said, the vote
was closer.
May Be Change Sometime
He concluded that in time the
name will be changed.
John L. McLucas, chairman \ of
the Committee of 50, which se
lected the name of Mt. Nittany
and placed it on November's bal
lot, said he knew of no movement
to submit a new name for the
borough to the voters.
"I've sort of been resting from
the last go-around," he said.
Anyone Can Propose Name
McLucas said, however, that a
movement for a new name would
not have to be initiated by the
Committee of 50. Any group is
free to do so, he said.
Gene Fulmer, executive secre
tary of the Chamber of Commerce
had no comment to make when
asked if he thought a new name
would be proposed.

Committee of the Board of Trus
tees to be held at the UniversitY
today.
The names which appeared' on
the original ballot include Ather:-
ton, Centre Hills, Keystone, -Mt.
Nittany, University Centre, Uni
versity Heights, and University
Park.
The University also sent 4300
questionnaires to faculty and staff
members, members of Alumni
Council, and All-University Cabi
net.
CDT Ballot
A ballot similar to • the one
which appeared in Collegian was
run in the Centre Daily Times
last week in an effort to get sug
gestions from townspeople on the
matter.
At last report, over 2000 of the
questionnaires which were sent
to the faculty•had been returned.
No figures were available on the
number of replies from the Cen
tre Daily Tines ballot.
o p Three Surveys
The opinions expressed in the
three surveys will be considered
by the trustees in deciding on a
name for the substation. The re
sults of the ballots, however, will
be used only as a suggestion to
the board. The final decision on
the name rests entirely with the.
board.
The trustees may also discuss
proposed construction of infirm
ary wings and - the new classroom
building.

they enroll in the College of the
Liberal Arts if they were still
undecided as to what they wanted
to study, or if they are dissatis

In the liberal arts college, Wha

to branch off into many varied
fields.

Atom
bright enough to be projected on
a screen in an auditorium and
can be photographed with an or
dinary motion picture camera.
The microscope makes the
atomic movement visible in the
first _atomic layer. It is possible
to observe the crystal structure
of the metal being studied down
to molecular and, in some cases,
even atomic dimensions. With the
conventional electron microscope,
the smallest dimension that can
be observed is a cluster of five
molecules.
The most important single com
ponent of the microscope is the
needle of the metal under study.
The tip of this needle is so small
that it can't be seen with the most
powerful optical microscope. Un
der the same microscope, a sharp
pin looks about the same size as
a cigar.
The tip of the needle must be
perfectly hemispherical in shape,
so that the electrons flow off, at
an angle almost perpendicular to
the surface at every point. If the
electrons do not all come off the
needle in the same direction, the
picture will be distorted on the
screen.
To make certain that the tip is
nearly hemispherical it is etched
in acid and then polished by a
special heat treatment. Getting
the proper tip on the needle is
largely guess work and needs
years of practice, since the nee
die is so fine that the process can
not be observed.
One drawback to the microscope
is that every time a new metal is
to be studied, a new microscope
must be made. This is because the
needle must be sealed in the vac
uum tube and cannot be removed
without destroying the tube.
Costs $2O
This does not present much of
a problem, however, since a new
microscope can be made at a cost
of about $2O.
Up to this time, needles of plat
inum, tungsten, molybdenum,
tantalum, iridium, zirconium,, iron,
copper, and silver have been
studied.
The microscope also enables Dr.
Mueller to study the chemical re
action of various substances as
they react with the surface of the
needle.
Dr. Mueller's invention is now
being used for basic research by
about 20 research groups through
out the country, including Gen
eral Electric, Bell Telephone, and
several colleges and universities.

4000 ROTC Students
Sign Loyalty Oaths
• Approximately 4000 men students enrolled in the Army,
Navy, and Air Force Reserved Officers Training Corps pro
gram have signed the loyalty oath as a prerequisite for se
curity clearance.
No one refused to sign the oath
which. asks the student to state
with which, if any, of the 248
listed subversive or questionable
organizations he is or has been
identified.
Before a ROTC student can re
ceive his commission he now must
get security clearance by taking
the loyalty oath in addition to
completing- a four page history.
All ROTC. Students •
The law which requires all
ROTC students to take the loy
alty oath was passed as a rider
to last summer's appropriation
bill.
An incident arose the Uni
versity of Wisconsin which re
sulted in an organization writing
to Defense Secretary Charles E.
Wilson demanding that the ROTC
I loyalty oath be withdrawn.
The Wisconsin chapter of the
American Civil Liberties Union,
took this action after Harold
Haak, a 19-year-old student at the
University of Wisconsin, filled out
the certificate, but was forbidden
to wear the uniform because he
had once, been the friend of a per
son who was later investigated
by the FBI for alleged Communist
activity. The University, which
is a land-grant college where
ROTC is compulsory, had Haak's
uniform restored to him'.
Designated Groups
Some of the organizations that
were designated by the Attorney
General as questionable or sub
versive are:
Abraham Lincoln Brigade, Ac
tion Committee to Fr e e Spain
Now, American Rescue Ship Mis
sion, Committee for Peace and
Brotherhood Festival in Philadel
phia, and, the National Blue Star
Mothers of America. This organi
zation, the certificate said, is not
to be confused with the Blue Star
Mothers of America; organized in
Feb. 1942.
The Communist Party, U.S.A.,
its subdivisions, subsidiaries and
affiliates headed the Attorney
General's list.
The loyalty oath provides the
government with a means of pros
ecuting any service man who has
"stated incorrect, incomplete, or
misleading information" on the
loyalty form.

Upon, these facts th, e board
based its decision with the stip
ulation that the sixth semester
student should be prohibited from
entering University
,r esidence
halls. The board also recommend
ed, to the dean of men's office that
letters be ' sent to these students'
parents informing them of the
incident and its decision.
Regarding the second case it was
brought out that a first semester
student and a third semester stu
dent inflicted some slight damage
upon the room of another first
semester student in Nittany Dorm
41 just after midnight on Nov. 21.
The latter student had locked
his room against the other two,
so they went around to the win
dow and after opening it they
threw a coke bottle into the room
which broke against the floor,
disturbed some of the books on
the student's desk, tore the win
dow shade off its roller and broke
the filament in the desk lamp
bulb.
Both students said they had
been drinking earlier in the eve
ning, although not heavily. They
said that the damage was report
ed to the dormitory's counselor,
who lives in an adjoining dormi
tory, by some fellow dormitory
students in the morning.
