PAGE TWELVE Theologians isagree On oterAction The role of the independent voter is important, but the form of his action was dis agreed upon by Rev. Harvey G. Cox and Rev. Robert M. Herhold in the second discus sion in the University Christian Association series "Christianity in Politics." 'Cox. visiting lecturer in Evan gelism at Andover-Newton Theo logical Seminary, said the inde pendent voter should stand out side the party to criticize it. On the other hand, Herhold, pastor of a Lutheran church near Min neapolis, Minn., said the inde pendent voter should decide on a party and work within it to re form the party and nominate its candidates. Both Cox and Herhold deplored the vote of the pre-decided voter. Cox said that race, religious de nomination. economic class, fam ily ties, geographical location, and special interest groups pro vide many voters with determin ates before the campaign begins. Dr. M. Nelson McGeary, pro fessor of political science, em phasized this fact, noting that University of Michigan studies show that from 2/3 to 3/4 of the vote is decided before the candi dates have expressed their views. • Sen. John Kennedy and Vice President Richard Nixon came under fire from both Cox and Herhold. Herhold said that both men play cards with Ihe issues and neither man dealt precisely with them. The final discussion, "Does Faith Affect the Office Holder?" will be held at 7:30 tonight in the Hetzel Union Assembly hall.

Void—Society Defines Criminal Behaviors The decision of what should be called a crime depends not only on naming criminal behavior but also in society's definition of this behavior, Dr. George Vold, visiting profes sor of sociology, said yesterday. Addressing the Faculty Luncheon Club on "National Characteristics of Criminality," Vold said that nations have differ ent opinions of what behavior is considered crime. . For example, when the 18th Amendment became law, it le gally prescribed as criminal selling liquor. which is consid ' ered uncriminal by many, he said. In Europe there is also a problem of alcoholic consump tion but it is not considered a matter for the police but rather as one's own responsibility. Within the United States when the Amendment by definition made such behavior a crime, three-fourths of those in prisons were violators of this crime, he added. There was much finagling to get around this definition. He recalled an incident where liquor was openly served at a dinner. The host claimed he was not violating any crime and showed the keg which was la beled "Do not store in warm place or will have alcoholic fer mentation contrary to law." By use of such a statement, the man was not violating the law, since the word "warm" was not de fined. Gambling is another type of behavior which is considered criminal by some nations and not by others, Vold said. A great portion of 'he world con- Exclusively Ours Bostonian Ltd:! THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA From $17.95 /-- , ,Guy Kresge siders gambling a "good game," especially the Latin American countries. In the United States, however, gambling is often de fined as a crime. The definition of crime often :rests on the outcome of politics, Vold said. Certain types of be havior in some countries are taken out of the hands of the lawmakers and become the con cern of each individual, Vold said. In Sweden and Denmark, this is true of sexual behavior. The Scandinavians believe sex is a personal matter and should not be defined as criminal or non-crim inal by law, as is the case in the United States. Thus crime is not just behavior, but behavior de fined as crime, Vold concluded. LeSage Reviews Novel For National Magazine Dr. Laurent LeSage, professor of Romance languages, is the au thor of a review of the book, "Zazie," in the current issue of the Saturday Review.
