with 2000 letters,

when he appears before the Uni
versity Senate Dec. 4, "I don't
think you'll haVe to hang your
stockings•up at Thanksgiving."
He was referring to one of the
many remarks expressed at the
pep rally knocking the short re
cess. In addition to the usual pre
game banners such as, "Trounce
the Wolfpack," signs appeared
reading, "Extend the Xmas Vaca
tion, and "More Vacation."
Bahrenburg said the letters
would "mean more than any
thing I can say or any other stu
dent can say" to bring about an
extended recess. He asked that
the letters be addressed to him
and be turned in at the Hetzel
Union - desk no later than Nov. 26.
Bahrenburg cited safety haz

Year's Day death toll—to the stu
dents. Forty per cent of the stu
dent body, living out of state or
at its eastern and western edges
would have a "heck of a time get
ting back here," he said.
Halfbacks Billy Kane and Ray
Alberigi and center Dan Radako

which also featured the antics of
Alfred Klimcke, the Nittany Lion,
as a North Carolina State official.
Captain Sam Valentine drew
the name of Susan Mamolen,
sophomore in education from Wil

neck sweater set. The drawing
was sponsored, by Theta Sigma
Phi, woman's journalism society.
Grid Flash Card
Leaders Happy
With Performance
The flash card system will not
be used for the football game to
day since the leaders feel the
system has accomplished its pur
pose for this year.
Co-chairmen Merle Brooks and
Sally Jervis said they feel the
original object of putting the sys
tem into effect so late in the sea
son this year was to prove the
feasibility of such a system at the
'University.
They feel with the two per
formances, it has proven itself
successful. Steps will now be tak
en to perfect the system.
The chairmen, cheerleaders and
any interested persons will meet
immediately after Thanksgiving
to make plans for the system next
year.

Campaign Way Short of Goal;
Contributions Still Incomplete
By ANNE FRIEDBERG
University students contri
buted $2382.39 to this year's
Campus Chest solicitations
drive by 9 p.m. yesterday.
This figure fell short of the
$12,000 goal by $9617.61.
However, these returns repre
sented reports from only 130 out,
of approximately 425 solicitors.
There are 295 solicitors who still
have to make returns. The drive
officially ended at 11 p.m. yester
day.
Edward Long, tabulations chair
man, said that members of the
executive committee will collect
returns from 6 to 10 tonight in
the lounge opposite the Hetzel
Union desk.
He said that if not all returns
are received today, committee
members will also collect returns
on Tuesday in the Hetzel Union
Building.
If complete returns are not
made at that time, individual
solicitors will be contacted per
sonally by the executive commit
tee for reports of returns.
Main contenders for the fra
ternity trophy last night were
Phi Gamma Delta and Beta Sig
ma Rho. Contenders for the sor
ority trophy were Sigma Delta
Tau and Kappa Kappa Gamma.

The Nittany Lion, when he
arose early this morning to get a
good seat at the football game,
almost dove back into his warm
bed.
When he stuck his nose out the
front door, it im
mediately turned
a deep blue, not
in c o m memora

colors, but be
cause of the fore
cast 38 degree

But, being a
hardy soul filled
with spirit, he
bundled up in
his heavy top
coat and scarf and ventured forth
into the expected light snow.
The weatherman tried to help
the Lion and other football fans
by forecasting the end of snow
early in the morning but said he
could do nothing about wintry
winds that should prevail all day.

butions. Sigma Delta Tau shined

fraternity houses, and Kappa
Kappa Gamma washed cars at
fraternity houses.
Long said that he could not
definitely announce the winners
of the fraternity and sorority
trophies because less than half of
the fraternity contributions had
been turned in.
He also said that the winner of
the independent living unit tro
phy was still looming because so
many of these contributions have
not yet been handed in to the
executive committee.
Basis for Selection
The winner of the independent
living unit trophy will be com
puted on the basis of greatest
average contributions per capita.
The strongest point for contri
butions throughout the entire
drive was the sororities. "Sorori
ties were much stronger on the
whole than fraternities," Long
said.
The weakest areas for contri
butions to date were found in
Atherton Hall, and the Tri-dorm
area including Jordan, Watts, and
Irvin.
Long praised men in the Nit

fine job." He also complimented

tributed to the drive.

To Play In
Home Finale
By FRAN FANUCCI
Collegian Sports Editor
Penn State and North Caro
lina State haven't played each
other since 1924 and yet to
day's game shapes up as one
of the East's fiercest rivalries_
Approximately2o,ooo fans
will see the Lions, boasting
10 Pennsylvanians in their
starting lineup, meet a southern
school, with eight Pennsylvania
players in its lineup. Since the
Wolfpack is dominated by so
many Pennsylvanians and former
teammates of Lion players it is
apparently simple that it would
' like nothing finer than to beat
the Lions.
But the oddsmakers tend to
disagree with the Wolfpack at
titude for they have installed
the Lions as 20-point favorites
for today's final home game for
the Lions.
It will be Coach Rip Engle's
straight-T versus the complicated
multiple offense of NCS and for
mer Lion Coach Earl Edwards.
Engle, whose name was synono
mous with the split-T the past
few years, has used the straight-
T to great advantage this year,
racking up five wins against two
losses.
Edwards, meanwhile, has had
his share of bad luck, being able
to notch only three wins in eight
outings this season. But along
with his two coaching aides—Bill
Smaltz and Al Michaels, both for
mer Lion coaches—Edwards'
knowledge of Lion football could
prove advantageous to a possible
upset win today.
But if the bad weather, which
has dominated the Nittany Val
ley the past two days persists.
the light backfield of the Wolf
pack could definitely be handi
capped.
The weather report for today
forecasts strong wind and snow,
a deterrent to anygood passing
team such as the Lions and NCS
boast.
The Lions are more ably
manned with heavy backs and
would appear to have a decided
edge if the field should become
a mud bowl. Quarterback Milt
Plum's strong passing attack has
always been one of the Lions'
better points, providing the team
