The proposed fliargement of
the Hetzel Union Building will be
brought up for discussion before
All - University Cabinet at its
meeting at 7 tonight in 203 HUB.
Jay Feldstein, A 11- University
President, said last night the HUB
will be enlarged in the immediate
future, and that a Cabinet com , .
rnittee will be set s -up to offer sug
gestions on the addition.
Feldstein said the HUB, com
pleted in 1955. is already too
small for the present enroll
ment of the University. He said
he did not know when the en
larging would begin, saying
only that additions are planned
for "The immediate future."
A member of the administra
tion, Feldstein said, has asked for
student opinion what should be
included in the HUB enlargement.
The Cabinet committee, he said,
will consult other schools during
the summer for suggestions •for
new facilities for the HUB, and
will also try to determine student
opinion on what should be in
cluded in the addition.
Feldstein said he will ask
Cabinet members tomorrow
night for suggestions on how to
get, the information on student
feelings on the issue.
The referendum amendment to
the Student Government Associa
tion constitution will come up for
its second vote at tonight's meet
ing. The amendment, which was
approved last week, must be read
and approved three times before
it becomes part of the constitu
tion.

President Eric A. Walker yesterday urged a deglamorization of sports and other extra
curricular activities in schools and colleges, the Associated Press reported last night.
"Somehow, someway, we must find means of making studying and learning at least
as attractive to our students as winning foot ball_letters and playing in the band," he said.

German Law Saves
Englishman's Wife
The use of a unique German law saved the life of Mrs.
Jeanty Raven, wife of Dr. Charles E. Raven, former vice
chancellor of Cambridge University,Who is 'speaking on
campus tonight.
Mrs. Raven is a Belgian. She and her first husband, a
lawyer, hid allied airmen during
the Belgian Resistance at the start
of World War 11. Their resistance
efforts were discovered 'by the
Germans and she and her husband
were taken through the German
criminal courts
During the course of•their trial,
a German law was uncovered
which provided that if one person
in a crime committed by a mar
ried couple could be'proven irre
sponsible or ,-insani,- the • other's
death sentence would - be com
muted. '
Mrs. Raven was persuaded to
feign insanity, and she must have
done a most convincing job of it,
she , said, for after being ques
tioned lengthily by seven German
psychologists, she was_ diagnosed
g schizophrenic.
She said that ,during the in..
tense periods of •Ixaminations
she slipped many times, but was
"able to cover up or fall back
into 'her role most of the tithe.
Mrs. RaVen was committed to
an institution with other German
`"lunatics," she said. Her husband
was •sentenced to life imprison
ment
After two years in the institu
tion, she was freed by the allies.
Two days later her husband was
shot by the Germans. - - ,
Mrs.. Raven continued to work
with refugees following her re
lease. Her Vast-war experiences
included investigations of :war
crimes.

Walker stressed the need for "rev
olutionizing education in Penn
sylvania in the next 15 years."
"We must frankly recognize the
problems we face,' Walker said,
"We must sit down to work out
sane, logical, solutions to them
and then proceed systematically
and courageously to carry- them
out."
Walker criticized the present
educational aya t e m on the
grounds that it doesn't demand
enough of students at all levels.
"Our pupils and students . . .
simply are not generally work
ing up to their full intellectual
capacity.
"This is especially true of boys,
I believe, who obviously find
greater personal rewards by com
peting in sports or engaging in
social activities than they do in
making good scholastic records.
"Many studies show that in
terest," Walker explained. "At any
creased challenges result in in
creased effort and increased in
rate, I'm sure we can do more
to motivate our charges for great
er effort,"
He suggested that a statewide
program for testing and coun
selling students be worked out
between the university and
college heads and officials of
elementary and secondary
schools.
lie also urged the establishment
of a continuing program of psy
chological research and a program
of teacher fellowships.
-"The simple truth is that we
have shaped for ourselves a civil
ization that demands, for its con
tinued existence, a general edu
cational upgrading of all our peo
ple," he said.
