Ohio State game pep rally.
Toretti lauded the team during
Ihe spirited rally in front of Rec
reation Hall prior to the team’s
depature for Columbus. Ohio, to
battle the highly-rated Buckeyes
tomorrow.
He said the gridaers have a big
job as two different systems will
be clashing in the game—that of
a school where football means ev
erything and another where it is
only a part of an educational sys
tem.
During »he rally, John Chaffetz.
head manager, made individual
introductions of the Nittany Lion
squad members. Prior to the in-
troductions, Chaffetz cited the oc
casion of two years ago when the
University opened against Illinois.

14-12, he reminded.
He said that ‘‘all the boys are
going out to do a good job” and
added that the team will be play
ing before a small crowd as com
pared .to last Saturday’s million
plus TV audience.
Dick DeLuca, starting right
guard, was the team’s speaking
representative. He said he heard
many students and fans were
doubting the team’s chances
against the Buckeyes. DeLuca
then pointed out, however, that
“they put their shoes on one at a
time.”
The Air Force Reserve Officers
Training Corps Pep Band provid-
ed a peppy musical background
for the rally, and the cheerleaders
led the crowd in school songs and
cheers.
Immediately after the rally, the
team received a noisy sendoff as
the bus left for the game.

Cabinet Executive Committee
To Get Yule Extension Plan
All-Universitv Cabinet last!
night referred a recommenda-j
tion to increase this year’s;
Chistmas vacation by three
days to the group’s executive
committee.
Decision on the proposal was
slated for Thursday night.
Near the end of the two hour
and 15 minute session, Norman
Schue, Agriculture Student Coun
cil president, asked Cabinet to
recommend to the University that
the vacation (Dec. 20 to Jan. 2)
be extended from Dec. 22 to Jan.
3 because:
1. Students won’t have enough
t. ne to get jobs during the vaca
tion and make spare money.
2. A large number of students
will cut the Extra days.
3. Students won’t be interested
in attending classes during the
last few days of preceding vaca
tion.
4. The return date is too close
to New Year’s Day (Jan. 1).
5. Students won’t have enough
time for holiday shopping.
Explains Points
Explaining the last two points,
Schue said he felt students are
being asked to return too soon
after New Year’s Day: “An awful

As for shopping, he said, he
realized the University would ask
why students couldn’t do their
shopping in State College, instead
of waiting until they went home.
“But let’s face it,” Schue said,
“you know how high the prices
are downtown. The administration
can’t expect us to shop there.”
Schue said the missed time
could be made up during the se
mester break.
