FOR A BETTER PENN STATE PA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 8, 1958 POPE PIUS XU Condition Of Pius XII Worsens CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy (IP)—The condition of Pope Pius XII grew worse last night. The 82-year-old head of the Roman Catholic Church had rallied earlier from a coma and partial paralysis that attended a stroke Monday, but other symp toms recurred. Then late last night a Vati can official said flatly the pontiff's condition had taken a turn for the worse. Pressed to elaborate on the degree of worsening, he replied only: "I stick by what I said." A doctor close to the situation said the Pope was in worse con dition than a medical bulletin is sued at 6 p.m. had indicated. This source said - the pontiff actually was still afflicted with partial paralysis that affected his upper body, face. and speech. There also were signs that the Pope possibly was delirious. Another indication that the pontiff's condition had become more grave was the announce ment that'the Vatican Press Of fice planned to remain open throughout the night.

Jerry Persons took over yesterday as President Eisenhower's No. 1 assistant. But Sherman Adams, who resigned the top White House staff job under fire, is staying around for a while to help out. Adams solemnly looked on from the back of the room as Atty. Gen. William Rogers ad ministered the oath of office to the lean, 62-year-old graying re tired major general. Adams didn't stick around to join the line of well-wishers con gratulating Persons after th e ceremony. Eisenhower was at the front of the White House conference room beside Persons. After Rogers had adminis tered the oath, the President handed Persons his commission, smiled and said: "Well Jerry, here is a new diploma. This is one of the many capacities in which we have been together." Persons, a long-time close asso ciate and personal friend of Ei senhower, served with him in the Army. A member of the White ' House staff since Eisenhower took office in 1953, he has been deputy assistant to the President. The White House said Adams will stay on until there has been an orderly transition. Press Sec- , retary James C.

Den Hours Draw Bigger Crowd The extended hours in the Lion's Den drew a larger crowd than usual last weekend, according to Robert C. Proffitt, director of Food Service. He also said that some of the students present said that they had .been encouraged to come. The experiment would not be a fair one if students did not come of their own accord, he said Edward Frymoyer, president of the Association of Independent Men, said he did riot believe any of the students present were pres sured into coming. He said they were taking advantage of the later hours because they wished to. The Lion's Den was open un til 12:30 a.m. last Friday and Saturday on a trial basis to see if it would be feasible to keep it open later every weekend. The original request for later hours was made by Frynoyer at a meeting of the -Hetzel Union Reds' Childish Threat GEN. WILTON B. PERSONS By ELAINE MIELE Board. The extended hours would provide a place for freshmen to go on weekends since they are not allowed to visit fraternities because of the deferred rushing program, Frymoyer said. Members of AIM conducted a survey in the HUB on Sat urday night and reported that about 60 per cent of the stu dents present were freshmen. There was a line at the snack bar late Saturday evening, Fry moyer said, but figures on sales are not yet available. Proffitt said he would know the totals later this week. See Page 4 FIVE CENTS
