"The main purpose of our
continuing liberal education
program is to install greater
public responsibility toward
the main issues and problems
of today," Cyril F. Hager, direc
tor of the Center for Continuing.
Liberal education, said last night.
Hager, formerly dean -of the
school of. foreign affairs for the
Department of State, outlined the,
center's five-year plan which is;
now in its second year, at the
mass Communications Forum
held at the Nittany Lion Inn.
CCLE, as the center is called,
is attempting to foster compre
hension and investigation of the'
social sciences, the arts, and the
humanities by adults of the State'
of Pennsylvania, he said.
"We do not ask that a defi
nite agreement be reached on
the subject matter but only that
the pros and cons of a subject
and the ideas of each individual
are well-presented," Hager said.
"We are attempting to train our
citizens to be discussion leaders
and to make intelligent decisions
in solving federal and community
problems," lie said.
When asked if experts or teach
ers are present at the meetings,
Hager answered, "we discourage
lecture sessions. When experts on
any subject are needed, there are
always people right there in the
community who can supply the
necessary information."
According to Hager, "most of
those who signed up for the

Refusing to yield on claims to 90,000 square miles of
Himalayan soil India regards as
its own, the Chinese Premier sug

forces 12 1 / 2 miles from the dis

"The entire approach is repug

FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
By DEX HUTCHINS
I defeated last night the Board of Control recommendation
reshmen to attend fraternity functions from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m.
re deferred rushing plan by a 33 to 20 roll call vote.
James Alexy, president of Phi
Kappa Sigma, made the motion
to vote out deferred rushing.
Defending his motion, Alexy
said, "since deferred rushing
has not accomplished its objec
tives. we should not try to tag
along with a lame duck, at
tempting to patch it up." Alexy
proposed that fraternities re
turn to the old system of rush
ing and concentrate on a social
pledge program to orient fresh
men to fraternity and univer
sity life.
George MeTurk, Phi Kappa Psi,
said that it is too early to say
whether or not deferred •rushing
,is a failure. He said that under
!the present system many problems
' including freshmen averages and
,the drinking problem have been
I alleviated.
"With deferred rushing, fra
ternities do not have to gamble
with rushee's averages," McTurk
said, and "we can now know
which freshmen have the high
averages and concentrate on these
men first when rushing."
Dn Orr, IFC rushing chair
man reported that an average
of 60 to 65 men visited each Ira
ternity during the last open
house held Nov. 1. Orr said that
this was a considerable improve
ment in attendance compared to
the previous openhouses.
Richard McMahon, Sigma Phi
Epsilon, reported that the Inter
'fratermly Council Purchasing As
sociation transacted $20,000 in
business during the month of
October. McMahon said that the
IFCPA has placed advertisements
with various state employment
agencies to obtain more kitchen
help for fraternities.
Pitt Game Tickets
Football tickets for the annual
classic between the Panthers of
Pitt and the Nittany Lions will

The Red Chinese Premier, in
urging prompt action on his plan,
said "clashes which both sides do
not want to see may occur in the
future."
"The Chinese government pro

other questions on relations be

ministers of the two countries hold

Chou's note said.

A fitting epitaph indeed for the Penn State-Syracuse
battle which provided 32,800 fans at Beaver Field - with the
most thrill packed 60 minutes of football they'll probably
ever see anywhere.
Even though the Orange handed Penn State its first
loss this year, 20-18, the two teams proved to all present
and a national radio audience that there isn't just one great
team in the East, there are two.
In the end the only difference between the two squads
;turned out to be a couple of miswd
