AIM
on requesting the Association
sh a committee to investigate
ed by the Traffic Court was
the next AIM meeting.
presented to the AIM Board
of Governors by James Tipton,
president of Town Independent
Men.
He explained to the group that
TIM had recommended this ac
tion because at least 12 students
questioned their penalties from
Traffic Court. At least one charged
'that his case had been decided
before he had been heard, Tipton
said,
"No one is judged guilty until
all extenuating circumstances
have been presented," said John
Dennis, a member of the AIM
board and a member of Traffic
Court, in answer to the charges.
Lash Howes, president of AIM,
told the board, that if an investi
gation of Traffic Court is to be
conducted he feels it should be
done by the All-University Cabi
net since members of the court
are appointed by Cabinet.
Cabinet Action Suggested
. It was suggested that a recom
mendation directing Cabinet to
conduct an investigation of the
court would be in order.
The issue will be discussed fur
ther when the AIM board meets
on Tuesday night and has more
information with which to work.
Tipton will present actual com
plaints as filed by students
against the Traffic Court at next
week's meeting, -

the AIM community living com
mittee and West Halls Council
president, presented a prelimi
nary report of his committee

ceived from both students and
University offiicals has been high
ly favorable toward the plan.
The poll conducted among 500
students of both sexes showed a
favorable reaction on the part of

tioned.
The plan proposes a living

same areas, but in separate resi
dence halls.
On the administrational level,
seven persons, including Wilmer
E. Kenworthy, Otto E. Mueller,
Ross Lehman, Chaplain Luther H.

Valentine Named
To All-America
Sam Valentine. one of the greatest guards and linebackers to ever don a Lion uni
form, has been named to Look Magazine's All-America football team. He is the first
player to attain that recognition in Coach Rip Engle's seven years here and only the ninth
in the 70-year history 'of Penn State football.
The 5-11, 205-pound senior Captain from Dußois was the choice of the Football
Writers of America for one of the
guard positions on the 22-man
squad.
Valentine. along with Engle
and other Look All-Americans,
will appear on the Perry Como
television show at 8 p.m. tomor
row. The show will be telecast on
channel 6.
Valentine. called "the greatest
leader I've ever had under me"
by Engle. was the defensive
might behind the Lions great
forward wall. He was respon
sible, along with center Dan
Badakovich, for over half the
team's tackles.
His sharp football savvy en
abled him to diagnose opponents'
plays with amazing adeptness,
and he was always in the right
plfice at the right time.
Four times he was named to
the weekly All-East team, which
alone indicates the consistency
of his amazing play. More than
once his brute tackles on the
kickoff and on punts brought
an entire stadium to its feet, as a
fleet number 60 dodging would
be blockers, cracked through a
host of defenders to crunch an
opponent to the ground.
As a captain there are few
comparable to him. He was
probably the paramount factor
why Engle lauded his team as
"one full of desire and spirit."
Picked to lose seven games in
pre-season ratings, the Lions_ led
by the amazing leadership of
Valentine, swept by six oppon
ents—including national po w e r
Ohio State—while losing only two
and tying one.
Ohio State Coach Woody Hayes
called the Lion defense as the
toughest he saw all year. while
North Carolina State assistant
Coach Bill Smaltz said: "There's
not a tougher line around." -

Lion's plans.
