G c BO UR Editorial Opinion 2,800 New PR Men lit just about one month another 2,800 public-relations -agent* for Penn Slate will be released into the world from their jhabitat in dittany Valley, Whether he! likes it or not every senior who graduates in June will be henceforth and forever more a representa tive of Penn State to everyone with whom he copies into contact. ! ' * Ha may be lone of the vast majority of those who, in spite iof their complaints and criticisms, recognize just as clearly the advantages and opportunities Penn State has offered them during their four years here, and leave with an appreciation of and love.for their University. Or he may be one of those hard-hearted and weak minded cynics, who unwilling to strive himself,, expresses nothing but disdain for everything that is not handed to him, and is too short-sighted to acknowledge his indebted ness -to his Alina Mater. But in either case, he will be “Mr. Penn State” to those with! whom hejis associated after graduation for whether or not he tries ( to do it in his own mind, in the minds of others he. cannot divorce himself from Penn State. He graduated from here. Others will always see Penn State’s indelible mark on him. He cannot escape it. He will be considered an authority on everything from admission problems at tbe University, to its schol astic ciandards and curricula changes, to the Nitlany Lion football team. He will be expected by,others to know just what are the latest developments at his University in nu clear and atomic research, in educational theory, in engi neering and design techniques. ; What he knows and what he doesn’t know about his University will reflect on him. How strong his interest remains in his University will he taken by others as an indication of his personality and character! The Alumni Association tries to keep Penn State’s graduates prepared for the public relations job he will knowingly or unknowingly perform for the rest of his life. It offers him publications with up-to-date information on everything that is happening at his Alma Mater.: It keeps him in touch with his classmates and all those who share a common heritage in Penn State. The Association gives him an opportunity to further serve’Penn State in electing its trustees, in contributing financially to its growth and in building its reputation by making something out of himself. All he has to do is Join. Just as the prestige and growth of Penn State-adds to the degree of every graduate, graduate, does -will add to Penn State. . , A Student-Operated Newspaper - 57 Years of Editorial Freedom Successor to The Free.

They couldn’t reach the mainland from their'launch if we tried. • The near accident with the lire in the wiring of one oI our missiles was of no danger. ) ; The missile must be fueled and launched in a scientific sc* quence which includes activad ting the guidance system andj fueling. • The object over Alaska which alerted S.A.C., as Mr. Revitz stated, caused no .trou ble because the "level headed” commander did' not push the button. That is why that man is the commander. • Where were' the marchers in front of the Russian Embas sy last fall when they broke the moratorium?! • Did the youngsters carrying the signs really-. know .what they were doing or was it fun for them—like a parade?, ‘ —Dennis Politane '62 WDFM Schedule TUESDAY B:ll Moeti?

I think the dean of men would agree with these reasons and would even approve such a change in the dress code as to allow bermudas to be worn—if, and only if, the students took the responsibility, for enforc ing the dress standards regard ing proper dining hall attire.
