Reds Ask U.S., Britain For Lasting A-Test Ban GENEVA (A) The Soviet Union called on Britain and the United States yesterday to join her in an immediate and permanent suspension of nuclear tests and said only then would it help establish an international control system to police such a ban. Grey-haired Soviet delegat advanced the proposal at the i op ening public 'Nession'of the three-1 power nuclear conference, The immediate private Western reaction was that this represented the usual cart-before-the-horse Soviet approach to the subject. Speaking after the Soviet Dele gate, U.S. Ambassador James J. Wadsworth stressed that the three atomic countries had come, y on page 3 Related stow together "to ach ed agreement to clear weapons t:• accent on the 1 The United St are determined how far the S. cooperate in a girdling organi • test cheating b mil themselves Petie a safeguard refrain from nu :sts."

The six fraternities on campus will hold "open houses" for freshmen from 2 to 5 p.m. tomorrow. The open house program, sponsored by. the Interfraternity Council rushing committee, will give freshmen a chance to be "rushed" by fraternity men inside their houses. The six fraternities—Alpha Ze ta, Beta Theta Pi, Phi Delta Theta, Phi Gamma Delta, Sigma Chi and Sigma serve non-alco holic refreshments to the fresh men and conduct the prospective members through their houses. All freshmen interested in rushing are invited to attend the open house programs, Resh said, as he stressed the fact that attendance at the open house mixers does not bind the stu dent to rush. "It will just give the freshman a good look at the insides of a fraternity," Rosh said. Under the system, fraternity men are not permitted in men's residence hal 1 s from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. for any purpose. Between the hours of 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., frat ernity members may enter the units to visit freshmen. The IFC Board of Control ruled earlier this year that two or more fraternity members constitutes a group and the rushing is illegal. Fraternities also are not permitted to give anything of monetary value to freshmen. Concentrated rushing will be gin at the beginning of the sec ond semester for all those men who meet the 2.2 All-University a v e r a g e requirement. Pledging will begin sometime between the eighth and tenth weeks of the se mester. Political Parties To Nominate Class Officers Candidates for freshman and sophomore class officers for Cam pus and University parties will be elected at 7 p.m. tomorrow. Campus party will meet in 110 Electrical Engineering and Uni versity, in 10 Sparks. Only students who registered at one of the two previous party meetings may vote for these candidates. Six students will be elected from each party to run for the offices of freshman and sophomore class president, vice president and secretary-treasur er. A 2.4 All-University - average is required for candidates for soph emore class officers. Campus party will also hold elections for sophomore class clique secretary ,and freshman class clique president and vice president. All-University Elections Com mittee will meet at 6:30 p.m. to morrow in 10 Sparks to prepare (Continued on page two) on chief Semyon K. Tsarapkin ban on testing another hydro gen or atomic bomb. British Minister of State David Ormsby-Gore reminded the Rus sians: "We are negotiating for the installation of a control system not merely in our own countries. We are negotiating for the ulti mate installation of a world wide system affecting many countries who are not-represented here." Under the glare of photogra phers' lights the American, British and Soviet -delegations sat down at an oblong table in I the Palace of Nations. In that same room experts from eight countries of East and West decided last summer that it was scientifically possible to police a prohibition on nuclear testing. The report of those sci entists forms the basis for the ithree-power negotiations which :opened yesterday.

Lions Seek 4th In Band Day Game By LOU PRATO w Sports Editor The largest home crowd of the season-28,000--is expected to swell Beaver Field this afternoon when Penn State's thrice-beaten football team hosts Furman in the 9th annual Band Day extravaganza. Kickoff is at 1:30. The Lions, who have played before 22,000 and 27,000 fans, respectively, in their other two home engagements, will be seeking to bounce back after the disheartening 14-6 loss to Syracuse last week. They are a three to four touchdown favorite. And if Penn State follows previous form, today's game should end in a victorious rout. For the teams caught in the Nittanies' previous rebounds have suffered greatly. Penn was clobbered, 43-0, following an opening season loss to Nebraska. And the week after the 26-0 Army defeat, the Lions wallop ed Marquette, 34-8. If you're wondering about Penn State's starting lineup, forget it. Left halfback Bruce Gilmore, Penn State's leading ground gainer, will be sidelined for the remainder of the season. The fleet Lion senior, who was injured in a practice session Tuesday night, went through an operation on the ligaments in his left knee yesterday af ternoon at Geisinger Memorial Hospital in Danville. It was the second surgical job on Gilmore's left knee. Last spring he had an inside carti ledge removed. Both operations were perforined by Dr. Leonard Bush and Dr. Albert Love. "He'll be home in about a week." team physician Dr. Al fred E. Griess said yesterday. "But his leg will be in a cast for about a month." Gilmore ha d gained 288 yards on 52 carries this year and had been the sparkplug in the Lion wins over Marquette and Boston University. His best performance was in the Mar quette homecoming tilt where he gained 142 yards. Even Engle isn't sure who he will include on his so-called first unit. Probably the only certain starters are captain and center Steve Garban, left tackle Andy Stynchula, right end Maury Schleicher, and left halfback Dave Kasperian. Even flichie Lucas, the Lions' ace quarterback, Is a doubtful starter—but that is because of a death in his family. Lucas will attend the funeral of his grandmother this morning and may not return in time for the game.. "We are flying him back," En gle said; "and are helping he will !get back to play. But his game will probably not be up to par be !cause he feels very bad about his (Continued on,plige six) 56 Bands Will Attend Band Day Gay colors and martial music will invade the campus today when more than 4500 members of 58 state high school bands parti cipate in the ninth annual Band Day.
