Asked if the \ investigation was
directly concerned with students,
Juba said "I wouldn't say di
rectly." The police "have an idea"
there is betting on the pools in
State College, he said, but aren't
sure any students are connected
With it.
Football pools—printed listings
of college football games used for
betting purposes—are illegal un
der state law. Juba said handling
the pools is a misdemeanor, and
said he thought the fine for the
offense is "several hundred dol
lars," although he did not have
the figures with him at the time.
An official at the state police
barracks at Rockview said no
one from that office was in on
the investigation.
The central state police head
quarters at Harrisburg could not
be reached for comment.
Six University of Michigan
students were arrested in a foot

Ann Arbor police. Two of the
students pleaded guilty last night
and were fined $lOO each.
The Michigan students were
charged with "engaging in an il

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,

Freshmen May Visit
Fraternities Sunday
First semester freshmen will catch their first glimpses
of the insides of fraternity houses tomorrow.
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.

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

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

will probably not be up to par be
!cause he feels very bad about his
