The Cornell defeat was the sec
ond in five outings for the Lions,
who had previously beaten Col
gate, 19-10, Army, l!i-9, and Navy,
17-8. A victory is a must tonight
if the matmen want to achieve at
least a .500 season r< cord, for only
two more matches r .l—with Syra
cuse and Pitt—remain on the
schedule.
Most of the Lion fans missed
Speidel's men in their last Rec
Hall appearance. That was over
the semester recess when the
Lions rapped Army. However,
6000 persons were around when
Lehigh clobbered the Mt. Nit

evening.

Philadelphia Orchestra
TicketsAvailableMonday
Tickets for the concert of the Philadelphia Orchestra,
conducted by Eugene Ormandy, will be distributed to students
beginning at 1 p.m. Monday, and beginning at 9 a.m. Wednes
day for non-students, at the Hetzel Union desk.
The Artist Series at the University is sponsor of the
concert which wilt be presented
at 8 p.m. next Saturday in Rec
reation Building.
Ormandy has headed the orches
tra for 22 years, and under his
direction, according to successive
critical polls, the orchestra has
moved along an upward road to a
position of preeminence “un
matched by any other” orchestra.
At the age of five, Ormandy
was entered into the Royal Aca
demy of Music in Budapest, the
youngest student ever to be ad
mitted. He received his profes
sor’s diploma in the Royal Aca
demy at 17 and was given degrees
in piano playing, composing and
counterpoint. After concert en
gagements in Central Europe, he
returned to Budapest to teach at
the State Conservatory, a career
which he varied with further tours
as a virtuoso.
A long-cherished ambition was

Review
Players Drama Is
Lasting, Excellent
The opening performance of
Music At Night—a deep and
thought-provoking drama by
J. B. Priestley—ended at 10:45
last night at Center Stage but
it should not be over in the
minds of the audience.
It was that kind of play, ex
cellently done.
The play, which deals with an
excursion into the minds of men
fulfilled in 1921 when he was in
vited to make a concert tour of the
United States. The venture turned
out to be merely a glittering
promise by an inexperienced man
ager. Ormandy, however, was
recognized for his talent and in
a short time became one of radio’s
first important conductors. In
1930, he directed his first concerts
with the Philadelphia Orchestra
and the New York Philharmonic.
An invitation to replace Tosca
nini as guest conductor with the
Philadelphia Orchestra in 1931
led to a position as guest conduc
tor of the Minneapolis Symphony.
He was called back to the Phila
delphia Orchestra in 1936 as mu
sic director and since that time
has piloted the orchestra to the
top position it holds today.

'Sorry, No Date Tonight, Baby/
Moans Campused Male Student
"I’d like to go out with you
tonight, honey, but I’ve been
campused.”
That’s the newest cry from
men living in the residence
halls, although it didn’t ring out
to the extent of the moans issuing
from the women’s halls.
Although dormitory counselors
have always had the right to re
strict men to the residence halls
area, it is seldom used and even
less well known.
However, it seems that it is
being used more this year than
in previous years. The dean of
men’s office could not determine
how many students were cam

Concern
Spreads
WASHINGTON (fP) —Mounting concern that Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles may have a recurrence of cancer
spread through the capital last night after he underwent a
hernia operation.
The operation was termed a success, but announcement of
any other findings by the doctoz'S
was delayed until today
Should their report show a new[
attack of cancer it could mean'
the imminent retirement of Dul
les from the No. 1 post in Presi-j
dent Eisenhower’s Cabinet. Dulles'
thought of quitting once before,
when he underwent an operation
for cancer. I
The hernia operation was per- 1
formed between 8 and 9 o'clock
yesterday morning at the Army’s
Walter Reed Hospital. ’ ;
During the operation, tissues;
and fluids were removed for mi-!
croscopic examination. What this)
may show as to the presence or
absence of cancer is to be offi-'
dally disclosed today at about
noon. I
Neither the White House nor {
the State Department would ,
say anything pending that an
nouncement.
The White House would not
discuss the nature of a report on ;
Dulles, given Eisenhower yester-',
day by his personal physician,
Gen. Howard M. Snyder, who
witnessed the operation. ]
There was an interval of more!
than 24 hours in 1956, when Dulles:
was operated on for trouble with'
his colon, before it was announced
that a cancerous condition had
been found. That condition was'
said to have been cleared up by
the operation then.
Some medical men follow the
practice of delaying for a fixed j
period of time before annound- j
ing whether a patient has been 1
found to have cancer. This I
gives lime lo notify the family j
and lo adjust the patient, if
necessary.

Town Men

On Housing
Town Independent Men may
soon investigate town men’s hous
ing complaints through a commit
tee organized this week by the
TIM council.
If the report of this committee
is favorable, the complaints will
be channeled through TIM coun
cil to Alvin R. Grove, boiough
health commissioner.
When asked about the proposed
plan, Professor Grove replied. "I
am sure the borough and the
Board of Health will cooperate in
every way we can ... I would be
glad to discuss the problem with
any such committee . . . However,
T must emphasize that this is the
Board of Health and any investi
gation can be conducted only in
leases involving public health."
j The present committee will only
'investigate the feasibility of set
ting up a go-between for the town
men and a community commis
sion, but it was the hope of the
council that an effective plan
could be arranged.
The council also discussed pro
posed projects for the spring se
jmester: a Las Vegas Night, mix
jers and weekend dances, an an
nual TIM banquet, a Christinas
'.store possibly to include the sale
jof Penn State Christmas cards,
an outstanding living unit award
and a larger intramural softball
