HUB Starts
Sales Slack
Downtown
By SUE CONKLIN
The opening of the Het z e 1
Union Building has affected
downtown business as well as the
business in the Waring Hall snack
officials reported
yesterday.
An official from the Comer
Room said a definite decline in
business has been evident since
the HUB opened. He said the drop
in business was much like that
when the Waring Hall snack bar
opened. He also said he felt that
business in the long run would
slack off as a result of the HUB,
although not to the same extent
as it has at the opening. Between
meal business has been lighter,
he added.
R. W. Baker, manager of the
New College Diner, said his busi
ness has slacked off since the
opening of the HUB, and that the
decline has been about equal
for the two days since the open
ing. He said he felt University
officials were aiming at the town
business men when they built the
HUB. The purpose of the HUB,
he said, is primarily to serve non
dormitory students. These stu
dents are the main source of busi
ness for the town businessmen, he
said.
W. D. Henning, manager of the
Penn State Diner, was unavail
able for comment.
Students, faculty, staff, alum
ni, and friends of the University
may use the facilities of the HUB.
Any recognized groups may re
serve certain facilities for special
events. They may also sponsor off
campus groups desiring to use the
HUB facilities.
Reservations for meetings,
dances, mixers, and other events
may be made by campus groups
by applying at the main office,
202 Hetzel Union. Off-campus
groups seeking space reservations
must apply at the office of the
Conference Coordinator, 108 Old
Main.

Observatories Open
For Use by Public
University observatories will be
open to the public today and to
morrow from 8 to 10 p.m. for ob
servations of the planet Jupiter
and stars, weather permitting.
Members of Alpha Nu, astro
nomical society, will operate the
telescopes and answer questions.
Jupiter, the largest of the nine
lanets, is now in the constellation
Gemini and is high in the sky in
the early evening.
The best telescopic views of
astronomical objects are usually
obtained when the objects are
high in the sky since the earth’s
atmosphere then causes the least
amount of interference.
Yalta Conference Records Released
WASHINGTON, March 16 ( JP)
—The long secret records of the
Yalta conference in 1945 were
made public tonight.
They disclosed, among other
things, that Soviet Marshal Jo
seph Stalin demanded sweeping
concessions from President Frank
lin Delano Roosevelt in the Far
East with the argument that he
had "to explain to the Soviet
people why Russia was entering
the war against Japan.”
The concessions which he spe
cified included possession of the
Kurile Islands and Southern Sak
halin, rights to the port of Dairen
and Port Arthur and operation of
the Chinese Eastern and South
Manchurian railroads.
Roosevelt, anxious to assure
Russia’s belligerency in the Far
East, agreed to the concessions.
Accused of Blundering
Critics over the years have ac
cused him of blundering, or worse;

Community Concert
Presents Pianists
Vitya Vronsky and Victor Babin, duo pianists, will present the
fourth in the series of Community Concerts at 8:30 tonight in
Schwab Auditorium.
The concert is a part o£ their current tour which began in
Chicago in November. They recently returned from an extensive
tour of Europe and the Near East.
During the tour they became the
first duo-pianists to perform in
the Holy Land, where they played
with the Israel Symphony as well
as presenting several individual
concerts.
The program, which is divided
into four parts, will include:
1. Sonata No. 6 in G Major, Vi
vace Lento Allegro (Bach) ar
ranged by Babin, and an original
version of Fantasy in F Minor,
Opus 103 (Schubert).
2. Rondo in C Major, Opus 73
(Chopin), and Babin’s arrange
ment of Polovetsian Dances from
‘Prince Igor’ (Borodin).
3. Jeux d’Enfants (Children’s
Games), Opus 22 Georges Bizet),
L’Embarquement Pour Cythere
(Poulenc), and Babin’s arrange
ment of Waltz, from ‘Eugene
Onegini’ (Tchaikovsky). ,
Miss Vronsky and Babin, who
are now American citizens, were
bom in Russia in cities 500 miles
apart. They met when they were
studying in Berlin under Artur
Schnable and were married later.
As a piano duo they made their
debut in London, then played in
Paris, Belgium and Holland. Their
recording of Rachmanioffs “Sec
ond Suite” became a best seller
and was released in America
where it attracted the first atten
tion to the new piano team.

Dance Team
To Perform
Shivaram, the famed dancer,
and his wife Janaki, will pre
sent a program of classical Hindu
dances at 8:15 p.m. Saturday in
Schwab Auditorium as a part
of International Theater Month,
which Players is observing.
Louise Lightfoot, an Austral
ian, will act as commentator for
the Indian dancers. The dances
will be of the “Kathakali” type,
which means “story-play” in
Sanskrit. The stories on which
these dances are based are taken
from Hindu epics.
ShiVaram and his wife are tour
ing the United States for the first
time, although they have per
formed in 11 other countries. A
Players’ spokesman said the Hin
du dancers are being brought to
the University to “bring culture
to the masses.”

agreements were sound; that the
trouble came when Russia vio
lated them.
The State Department distrib
uted the two-volume, 834-page
record to reporters late this af
ternoon, for publication tonight.
The action concluded a long
period of uncertainty over whe
ther the documents, virtually all
labeled “top secret,” should be
given out.
So far as the results of the
historic Yalta conference are con
cerned there was little, if any
thing, new in the papers. The
agreements reached have all been
made public years ago.
What was new were details of
the arguments Roosevelt, Stalin
and British Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill presented to each
other, the way they talked to
each other, and the maneuverings
of three leaders shaping the fu
ture of the postwar world. In that

respect the papers are a mine for
the historian and analyst of the
momentous events.
Extra Votes Obtained
The papers noted that President
Roosevelt said a plan whereby
Russia obtained two extra votes
in the United Nations was “very
embarrasing to me.” This ar
rangement was kept secret for a
while, but later became known.
At another point Roosevelt ex
pressed the hope the British
would turn their great port of
Hong Kong over to China —a hope
that never materialized.
The record shows that the Yalta
conference produced long hours
of argument over the creation of
free and independent govern
ments in Eastern European gov
ernments liberated from Hitler’s
armies, and especially over for
mation of an independent gov
ernment in Poland. In the end
Stalin agreed to free elections in

'Holdovers'
By MIKE FEINSILBER
Daily Collegian City Editor
Dr. Milton S. Eisenhower
president of the University,
came under fire from Sen. Jo
seph R. McCarthy (R.-Wis.) in
a Senate speech attacking
“holdovers from the Roosevelt
regime” yesterday, the Asso
ciated Press reported.
McCarthy, in a prepared Sen
ate address, blamed the “hold
overs” and Dr. Eisenhower for
the country’s policy of “co-exis
tence” with communism. The
Senator favors a more aggressive
policy of “liberation” for Soviet
satellites.
En Route to Washington
Dr. Eisenhower was en route
by plane to Washington, D.C. at
the time word of McCarthy’s
statement reached campus.
He probably was traveling to
the capital at the same time Mc-
Carthy made the speech.
Dr. Eisenhower is considered a
close adviser to President Dwight
D. Eisenhower. He reportedly has
a more liberal viewpoint toward
foreign policy matters than many
other members of the administra
tion and the conservative bloc in
Congress.
Attends Dinner
Dr. Eisenhower left the campus
in the early afternoon. He was
scheduled to attend a dinner giv
en by Vice President Richard M.
Nixon in honor of Robert Gordon
Menzies, the Australian Prime
Minister.
White House Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said “I have no
comment,” when told of the Mc-
Carthy speech.
McCarthy, in his speech, was
critical of the foreign policy of
President Eisenhower but the AP
report was not clear on how he
related Dr. Eisenhower with past
and present foreign policy.
Before his appointment as head
of the University, Dr. Eisenhower,
starting in 1924 served in num
erous governmental positions. He
was chairman of the United
States Commission for the United
