PAGE FOUR Editorial Opinion One for Experience "... one might wonder, why did a team from Pennsyl vania and a team from Illinois play in Ohio? Most hkely, the game would have attracted 50,000 at Illinois and 30,000 at Pennsylvania." This is a quote in part from the New York Times story on Saturday's football game at Cleveland. It is also what practically every one of the some 15 ; 000 fans were saying at the game. University athletic officials can chalk the game up to experience, because that's about all both schools got out of it. It was to be billed as THE game of the year for Cleveland, but it fell flat on its face. One University official said he was displeased with advance billing in Cleveland. Some blamed the weather, and a now infamous Cleveland sportscaster blamed the poor crowd on the minor league class football played in the East. University students and alumni should be compli mented, as some 3500 attended as compared to 900 from Illinois. But since it was officially a Penn State home game, thousands of other students were cheated out of seeing a good game at Beaver Field. Alumni and students have been complaining about such home games as Colgate and Marquette. At least 10,000 more fans would have turned out at Beaver Field to see the game. Just chalk it up to experience. Other Views Lights Are Vital Last Monday night a sophomore girl was hit on the head, taken to the infirmary, and had to have several stitches taken. This attack may have been prompted by a lack of proper lighting. Even though Capt. Price D. Cox, investigator for the Divi sion of Safety, promises a stepped up program of protection. other action should be taken. One can understand why lights may be slow in going up around recent construction, but it is much harder to see why insufficient lighting is allowed to remain on well established and traveled walks. N. Jordan Ave., in the stretch along New Fraternity now, is lit by one light. Of course this light was not meant to illuminate the entire street. It is obvious that more are needed. But because this end of N. Jordan Ave. itself is University property, I.U. should do something to provide lights along the sidewalks. Although plans may now be under way for increased lighting, this program should be speeded up. This would certainly be more than worthwhile if it can avert another occurrence such as happened Monday night.

PENNSYLVANIA Campus Beat Tickets for Cops, Death for Greek And 'Coolness' Hello again, students. We hope that there aren't too many of you with pneumonia after your joy rides atop the cars in Saturday's and Sunday's motorcades. These demonstrations are getting to be a habit around here. Heaven help the old town when we beat Syra cuse Junior Prom Saturday after noon. Who's going to take the initia tive and give campus patrol cars tickets for standing in the pro verbial "no narking-stopping standing" zones? Or aren't these vehicles expected to comply with University parking regulations? A prominent University official has sounded a 10 to 20-year death knell for the Penn State frater nity system. Guess that's why houses averaged 50 freshmen apiece during Sunday's open houses. Want to see a really beautiful sight? Then drive out to Boats burg via the back roads this week Fall colors haven't taken a vacation. The foliage is the best it has been in years, And then there was the coed who tried to swipe a derby during Derby Day and ended up with a foreign student's turban instead Dig that crazy derby. Froth's "Miss October" is pres ently neither a "Miss" nor a coed at the University. She left school and got married before the maga zine was on the street. The town's only coffee house seems to be a popular place. It'll more likely be even more popular if they dim the lights and speed up the service a little. No wonder the beatniks wear shades. We hear that a new "establish ment" is opening along College Ave., complete with set-up facil ities and a gilt player piano for at mosphere. Not to he outdone by the South ern and the West Indies resort areas that are sponsoring "Col lege weeks" at Easter time, Gros singers in New York is sponsoring a "College Christmas Week." Isn't anything sacred any more? After all the furor over fixed television programs, we're won dering if maybe we should inves tigate th e "programs" an d "quizzes" on our closed TV cir cuit on campus. But then all of the quizzes are fixed on campus set-mas. The answers are sup posedly given the contestants in previous lectures. Well, students. time for another "fifty minutes of knowledge." See you all in the cordon at Moun taineer Field Saturday.

Letters Importance of Issue Cited TO THE EDITOR: In regard to your report on last Thursday's SGA Assembly meeting I feel that you failed to emphasize the importance of the issue at hand It was not "a long-winded debate, which accomplished little," but was in fact a debate which decided an issue of fun damental impoi tance to the new Assembly. If the ruling of the chair, that the constitution could be amended by an interim body. had been allowed to stand, in opposition to the method es tablished in the constitution, the Assembly would have failed in its initial test as a representative governing body. The constitution was passed Froth—Low Type Humor? (Editor's Note: The following letter was addressed to "Editor, Daily Collegian" on the envel ope, but the letter itself be gan "Dear Froth Editors." We are not sure to whom it was directed, However, we decided to run it since Froth never knows from one month to next whether it will be able to publish again ) DEAR FROTH EDITORS: We have heard that Froth was a low type of campus humor. yet we decided to try it for our selves before judging. Well, after reading the article on the third page of the Oc tober issue, we read no further, The article on the coed was one of utter ignorance. Other Views More Kings, Kings and queens, bachelors and queens, and queens - and more queens; the campus has almost as much royalty as does Buckingham Palace. Nearly every week there is a new contest to see who is the "fairest and most popular" of them all. At this University where everyone is supposedly an intelli gent and thinking individual, it seems as though someone would do something with the idea that this contest craze is ridiculous. Apparently everyone goes along with the crowd and doesn't stop to think what these contests really mean. Isn't there some brave person who will rise up and declare his stand against these contests? Enough opinions seem to be floating around about the subject—why doesn't someone—for example the Student Senate—get up and express these opinions and try to do something to limit the number of such campus contests?

Remember the male usual ly starts the so-called "disgust ing coed" on these mentioned phrases. Maybe all males don't feel as the Froth ones do, but we coeds don't think any male has the right to call us disgusting —especially when he doesn't know us.
