Why Go Home?
Today many students ,should be homeward
bound to cast their ballots in the election taking
place in their home towns.
But how many are doing so? Probably very
few.
The University has done its part to make it
possible for students to vote by granting ex
cuses from classes to those eligible.
But still the vast majority of students 21 or
over will not be voting. And they cannot be
blamed too much.
For most —it would present. a great incon
venience to travel . from University ,Park to
their homes in one day. And even though they
are excused from classes, many ,probably feel
that it would be unwise to miss classes so close
to the mid-semester period.
Students are not the only ones faced with
this problem today. Many citizens will find
themselves working away from their perManent
residences and will be unable to cast their
ballot.
In this age where modern butiness demands
,extensive traveling by its employees and many
of the younger people 'are - attending schools
away from their homes it is time for Penn
sylvania to take a realistic approach to the
problem and allow - absentee voting.
In a, deinoceacy it is .important that every
citizen has a voice, and the state which is the
agenek of the people should try by every means
to insure the citizen's privilege.

Safety
Ungrateful and Unpatriotic
TO THE EDITOR: In reference to Miss Hudgins'
'editorial which stated that freshman 'veterans
do not desetve to have their cars anymore than
other freshmen, I would like to mention a few
things she has' apparently overlooked.
• One of -the reasons why freghnian stars , were
banned was because'of the low scholastic stand
ing of previous freshmen.
Most veterans are Mature and I doubt that
they would allow the possession of • a 'oar to
interfere' with their studies. Some vela did-not
know that a ban on cars was enforced at Penn
State and many of these.• same -vets are now
paying for cart they can not use.
While most freshmen directly out •of high
school do not own cars, veterans, having grad
uated three or four years ago, do' own cars
and must pay for insurance premiums and for
storage. This is definitely not fair.
I think it is also impOrtant to point out that
these men' would not be freshmen. and would
not be included 'in this ban-'if they had not
been serving their country to protect the rights
of all people to further their education if they
so desire.
I am inclined to look Upon Miss Hudgins'

Blood Giving Today
Two hundred years ago people thought blood
letting or giving was the only way to cure many
human ills.
Today we know it is.
For over three Million pints - were used in
1952 in operating rooms, on battle fields,. in
disaster areas. And since no substitute for it
has been found in spite of years' of medical
research, the only producers are people in
terested in supporting a blood gathering pro
gram.
The Red Cross Blood program will be in the
HUB today and tomorrow collecting blood - to
be sent to one of four places—community hos
pitals, overseas fighting fronts, commercial pro
cessing laboratories under contract to , the De
partment of Defense, and emergency reserve
blood centers.
According to the Red Cross, donating a pint
of .blood is comparable to an afternoon's exer
cise, and a person in good health can do either
safely. A mild skin anesthetic is used to make•
sure the donor doesn't feel the needle and the
blood is withdrawn at a steady uniform rate
compatible with the , normal rate of flow• in the
veins.
A healthy person ' s blood is constantly being
replenished in the body—the liquid part is re
placed almost immediately, the cells and min
erals - after a few days.
Two hundred years ago people had their
blood extracted because they expected health.
in return. Today donors get blood drop pins
and the satisfaction that goes along with help
ing to save someone else's life.

On assignment
We walked from University Park to State College last
Sunday at e rnoon .to 'casually check the football scores at
Grahams and to find other ways' to wile away an otherwise
dull Sunday. afternoon. Passing, by one of: the town's better
movie houses we thought how nice it would be to spend the
afternoon enjoying a Movie—any movie. Otherwise, we would
have had to study.
As it turned out, we 'wound up
