PA System: Big Help on Saturdays Editorials have been written, pep talks have been given and opinions have been voiced on school spirit since Penn State's upset win over Ohio State. These all had some significance and opened the hearts of many students, but there is one adjunct which would increase student spirit one step further—to a higher, more recognized level. That is, the installation of a public address sys tem at Beaver Field. Last fall, included in the Lion party platform, was an attempt to work toward getting a loud speaker to describe football plays at Beaver Field games. Nothing more was heard of this good suggestion, but something should be done soon. The crowd will cheer after a long run, an off balance catch, a first down, and a touchdown, but most ot the time a play ends in a pile-up and spectators can’t always tell who’s on the bottom with the ball or who brought the runner down. The numbers of each player are listed in the scorebook. but not everyone buys one, and for those who do. it’s distracting and often disgust ing to have to keep looking for a player’s num ber after every play in order to know who did what. Sure, students cheer after a rival player, who ran about 30 to 40 yards, is brought down by one of our tackles. But it’s quite obvious that many more students would really let out with a yell if a public address system blared. “The stop was made by .. . or “Smith was brought down on Penn Stale’s 5-yard line by . . .” From the small percentage of students polled on this issue, everyone expressed an opinion in favor of a PA system, and I'm sure many more Courtesy Always Pays "Residence Hells," or "number please," are the most common expressions of dormitory operators. These are fine, but we find that they are not always so polite. Although we realize that they handle a great many calls each day and that such constantly pressing work can become very trying, we would suggest that it would not be more diffi cult for operators to be always polite. It takes no more time or effort to be polite than it does to be rude. In fact, it is more efficient to be polite since people making calls will be more cooperative. Other complaints which are commonly heard against dormitory operators are that they fre quently ring wrong numbers, or that they do not ring the required number at all Many stu dents have complained that they are cut off while talking on the phone.

PENNSYLVANIA DAVE RICHARDS, Business Manager students and faculty would have done the same. One junior said he’d rather listen to the game at home because half the time he didn’t know what was going on at the game. A sophomore girl said that by the time she finds the number of the player who caught the pass, the next play is over and she misses it. One fellow said that he couldn’t afford a pro gram and no one around him had one, so he only knew what was going on when the boys sitting around him knew. Another senior said he thought a PA system would make the players feel better because they’d receive credit when they tackled or blocked an opponent. With a PA system more students would be attracted to watching the game; more students would get to know our team, and mainly, more students would cheer because they’d know what was going on. The scores of other games throughout the nation are announced over a PA system because many of us are interested in knowing them. But we are even more interested in knowing what’s happening on Beaver Field and nothing is being done about it. A PA system would enable us to recognize and give credit to the players at the time they do something that should be recognized. After we’ve read an account of a game in the newspaper we can say that a certain player played an exceptional defensive game, but that certain player doesn’t hear this, and he'd ap preciate it more if his feat was expressed in satisfying cheers when he performed it. Installation of a PA system has been discussed for years and it’s time some definite action was taken toward it. only infrequently. This, however, does not seem to be the case. We have had several bad ex periences with the operators and have' been told of many more. The most frequent charge against the oper ators is that they do not ring numbers when asked to. We have, upon more than one occasion, called a student in the dorms several times within a half hour and received no answer, only to discover the next day that the person was in his room the entire time. This has happened in the middle of a weekday when the phones are not usually busy. Could it be that operators are careless? We think they are sometimes, and more than is necessary. We hope that in the future the operators will be more courteous and put a little more effort into their work so that unnecessary mistakes will not occur. Tuesday and I think both political viewpoints are necessary if the paper is to -live up to its slogan, “For* a Better Penn State.” PENN STATE RTDrNG CLUB. 7 p.m.. SIT Willard PENN STATE SLAVIC CLUB.

From protesting Israel’s invasion of Egypt, Washington has turned to protesting the actions of her chief allies. There is a serious split. There is no reason to believe that American representations will be successful France and Britain, with France in the lead, have wanted immedi ate and forceful intervention : at Suez ever since Egypt’s decree nationalizing the canal. The United States held out for negotiations and for a lime won its point. War was delayed. Then Israel invaded Egypt, bol stered by French arms in quanti ties which American authorities believed far exceeded those they had approved when the United States refused shipments herself. The United States and Soviet Russia, the former having long attempted neutrality and the lat ter on the side of the Arabs, cried “stop,” and appealed to the Unit ed Nations in the hope of bringing to bear an overwhelming public opinion, plus the threat of sanc tions. Britain and France also cried "stop," with a proviso that, if their wishes were not heeded. - they would occupy the canal, zone by force—which was just what they had been wanting to do all the time. Later it was announced that the two coun tries would move "token" forces into the zone even if the fight ing stopped. There was no immediate indi cation that the British arid French had consulted or even notified the United States. ' The Anglo-French decision im mediately obviated the effect of anything the United Nations might have done. If the British-French ultimatum worked, they would have accom plished the objective toward which the United States was heading through established channels. . The American effort was to induce Israel to reconsider. By tagging Israel as the aggres sor. and reiterating her pledge .to the victims of aggression, the United States had faced the possibility of giving Egypt some sort of aid in a war. This is a potentiality dangerous domestic political issue. What effect, if any it may have on. the Eisenhower administration’s fortunes in next week’s elections cannot be fore seen.

ROBERTS to the canal zone in case Egypt were attacked. France and Britain were in po sition to put armed force into the immediate background of their negotiations with Egypt over Suez. The same applied to France's argument with Egypt over the latter’s support for the - Algerian rebels. The position of Britain and France, that they are defending the canal while stopping a pros pective war, is an extremely dan gerous one. Egypt’s attitude will be an extremely important one. If she resists the French and British, the whole Middle East may blow, clear down lo the Arabian oil wells.
