Bring the Centers Closer
The administration is now attempting what students
have been trying for the past school year— bringing its
centers closer to the main campus
As student leaders have already discovered, this is
a tremendous problem and it is very hard to solve.
The staff members are starting with very basic ideas.
Once a week for an indefinite period, heads of the 14
campuses will meet to consider problems at the adminis.
trative level.
They will be dealing with coordinating the system
of Commonwealth campuses. The Board of Ti ustees has
already laid the groundwork for the system by appointing
its lust directors.
The problem that must he solved finit by both student
and administrative leaders is that of communications.
This is quite evident with campuses strung from Erie to
Philadelphia.
Another stumbling block is lack of facilities. Most of
the facilities are already crowded with students. The
expected enrollment increases makes plans look dim for
more participation by off campus students in main campus
activities.
But students off campus must be made feel an integral
part of the University. This can only be, accomplished by
careful long-range planning.
Students and administrators are working for a com
mon goal and it can be reached by working together.

Reds Yield to Unity
Of West at Geneva
14 J. M. ROBERTS
Associated. Press News Analyst
The Soviet Union ha s
yielded before the first dis
play of Allied unity at Gen
eva, and the Big Four con
ference is under way in just
about the atmosphere which
was expected.
Representatives of East and
West Germany are sitting in as
advisers, an arrangement which
the Western powers had ex
pected although they did not
desire it.' Thus ends the battle
of the tables.
There is an air of symbolism
about this beginning of the
conference.
Fundamentally, it is being
held as a substitute for the
crisis which the Soviets had
threatened to stage this spring
over the status of West Berlin.
It began with a threat to
throw western forces out of
Berlin. But Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev now agrees
this can be "delayed." The
meeting is inaugurated under
a reminder, or a boast, by
Khrushchev that he can knock
out all of Europe with 16 hydro
gt n bombs.
The Allies said positively
they would not get out of Bet-

lin. Moscow began talking
about negotiations.
Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko wanted a
round table so the East Ger
man representative could be
squeezed in, and then formally
demanded a seat for him. The
Allies said no, there would be
no recognition of East Ger
many as an entity separate
from all Germany, de facto or
otherwise. They were p'repared
for German presence in an ad
visory capacity, and Gromyko
accepted.
The Soviet threats, and the
Allied determination not to
run, have now produced a sit
uation in which each side is
afraid and the other is glad
of it.
In this atmosphere, it appears
the conference might be a suc
cess in a negative fashion.
If no crisis develops over
Berlin on May 27 or later
pending a summit conference,
the foreign ministers, including
Gromyko, may be considered
to have done their job.
Five years ago a foreign min
isters conference sealed the
formal division of Viet Nam,
as another conference had seal
ed the division of Korea. That
is not going to be repeated
with regard to Germany. Ger
many is too close to the heart
of the free world.

Letters
Sr. Class Gift:
Coeds' Socks
TO THE EDITOR: In reading
your newspaper I find that I have
been negligent in voting for the
Senior Class Gift. Therefore,
would you please forward my
suggestion to the proper per
son(s).
Apparently the coeds of our
campus have made errors in bud
geting their clothing allowance.
It appears that they have spent
most of the alloted sum on very
neat and also attractive skirts,
blouses and dresses and conse
quently have nothing left for
purchasing socks,
For , this reason might I sug
gest that a portion of the amount
collected for the Senior Class Gift
be used for purchasing and dis
tributing socks to those coeds
who have made the unfortunate
error of spending their clothing
allowance unwisely.
I feel that adornment of the
campus is an entirely proper use
of the fund and certainly this is
what such a proposal would ac
complish. It will also prevent con
demnation of our very fine coeds
by visitors to our otherwise attrac
tive campus.
Reader Suggests
Frosh Booklet
TO THE EDITOR: There is a tra
dition at Harvard I think Penn
Staters ought to take a second
look at.
It is simply this—every June
the graduating seniors put out a
pamphlet evaluating and criti
cizing all the subjects, classes, and
"professors."
These pamphlets are then doled
out to the incoming freshman to
help orient them for their stay at
Harvard.
Being a freshman myself, I can
personally say something of this
nature would have been a great
benefit to me.
Until a pamphlet of this nature
is made available to incoming
freshmen, I'm afraid the freshmen
will suffer tremendously by not
being able to make the most of
their first year at college. This
problem can't be blamed on any
one or anything, but it can be
rectified.
I believe a student's stay at
college is of utmost importance to
himself, if not to anyone else, and
I'm sure many will agree with
me that "the professor makes the
course."
I hope someone who can do
something about it reads this.

Frosh Says Ritenour
Has Good Service
TO THE EDITOR: As this letter
is from a patient at the Ritenour
Health Center, you probably will
think it is similar to the "Fortune
Cookie from a Chinese Restau
rant" story.
Actually, this is a letter to tell
you, the never-been-a-patient
criticizer, that the Health Serv
vice, for the most part, is as con
scientious as any non-private hos
pital, and that they serve the best
fried chicken on campus.

Facts on What
Makes the Man
WASHINGTON (?P)—Stand aside, you fogies of 30 or
older. This is a young man's world that is getting more so.
and the men's clothiers are ready.
Remember the bumper baby crop that started with
World War II?
It may have slipped your mind that approximately
half of these babies are now
young men, or soon will be.
Well, it hasn't slipped the
fiscally alert minds of those
who run the National Associa
tion of Retail Clothiers and
Furnishers. They have come
out with a report on what the
boys in the back fitting room
will have. Some of their facts
may surprise you.
But first, a statistical note.
Right now, 17,115,000 Anieri
cans are in the 15-29 male age
group. By 1965 this number
will increase to 21,274,000: by
1970 it will be 25,350,000.
Clerks in 226 stores from
coast to coast interviewed the
first ten young men who came
shopping one day last Septem
ber.
As a result of that survey, the
clothiers can now report: "Most
of the young men's market
know what they want in
men's apparel. They are not
economy minded, and they are
prone to casual wear."
"Prone" seems putting it far
too casually. Over half of the
young men shoppers wore
sports shirts, and two-thirds of
them said they wear s p o r t
coats and slacks more often
than suits.
Hats? Only 52 had them on,
but 543 of the 2000-plus who

wore one on some occasion.
You know the eternal jokes
of how a woman likes to shop.
That doesn't apply, even a lit
tle bit, to the young man. He
comes in and buys; only 13
per cent left empty-handed.
So the picture slowly emer

if the weather permits it, at
ease, the young . man confi
dently approaches the "univer
