The fate of Froth magazine was left
undetermined yesterday.
Following charges made by Dean of Women
Dorothy J. Lipp and Dean of Men Frank J. Sixnes
`and their request that the magazine's charter be
revoked, the hearing was pcGtponed until. next

Tuesday.
' The Committee on; Student Organizations
consented to, a delay `after the editors and
literary adviser of the humor magazine con
:- tended that they had had insufficient, time to
prepare a defense against the charges leveled
tat the magazine. -
,ANDREA. BUSCANICS, co-editor, said she
received only a verbal statement of charges
before the. meeting began. In a telephone call
last Thursday' night from George L. Donovan,
committee chairman, she said she was told that
Froth was being charged with conduct "preju
dicial to the good name of the University."
The ruagazine's literary adviser Robert M.
Pockrass, Mls's Buscanics and Edwin Urie,
co-editor, received written copies of the charges
at the opening of, the hearing.
The charges stated: "In our opinion (Dean
'of Women Dorothy J. Lipp and Dean of Men
,Frank J. Simes), Froth magazine has for some
time contained material which has verged on
the libelous, if not actually being libelous, ern
ployed , the double entendre and has printed

the German issue may become a
first-class crisis by Christmas.
Soviet Premier Khrushchev
was said to have indicated that
he will resume his push for a Ber

idea of al solution—getting West

unacceptable to the West.
THE FEAR expressed by U.S.

may overstep in its next Berlin
drive because the Western Allies
are determined not to be pushed

As State Squ. Suffers
First Loss of Campaign
By JOHN MORRIS ,
Sports Editor
A gang of fired-up Chinese
Bandits stole a football game
from Penn State In West
Point's Michie Stadium Sat
urday. The culprits are still
at-large.
•
Unable to generate a reasonable
facsimile of offensive power, the
Penn State football team (3.1)
was witness to the theft, as Paul
Dietzet's Army team (3-1) swiped
a 9-6 win right out from under
its nose.
Dietzel, •In his first year as
head coach of the Army, was
quick to credit the victory to his
defensive team, the• aforemen
tioned Bandits.
"The Bandits did a great job,"
the personable - young coach
crowed after the game. "They
kept the pressure on."
ARMY BECAME the first team
to hold Penn State without a
touchdown since the 1958 Army
squad pulled the trick. The large
part of., the credit 'must go to
those Chinese Bandits—with a
big assist to the noisiest bunch of
coolie-hatted characters this side
of a Chinese Communist demon
stration.
The Cadet cheering section,
aided considerably by' a owplex
loudspeakers will canvass the
fraternity area and will stop at
corners in order for the men to
cast their votes. Another car will
proceed through the town inde
pendent men's area in the same
way.
All receipts' of campaign ex
penses and a sample of every
type of campaign literature used
must be turned In to the Elec
tions .Commission at 4:45 p.m.
tomorrow in 202 HUB, George
Jackson, chairman, said tonight
Congressmen are allowed - to
spend $ on campaigning, while
stories and jokes which, because of their vul
garity, were offensive to the great majority of
its readers." -
THE 'CHARGES went on to refer specific- t _
ally to a column called "Heartache Corner," a Iv
story entitled "Never Trust a Dressed College
Male" and an article, "The Incomplete Fresh Ci
Guide," all published In the September 1962
issue. Pt
The charges said, in reference to some, Jokes t°4
and articles in the last issue, that they "exceed
ed the bounds of decency" and were of a "sala
cious, irreverent and libelous nature."
In answer to a question.- posed by Fred
Waelchli, one of the two studenis on the com
mittee, Simes said that the September issue of
Froth only precipitated action for which the
groundwork had been laid during the last five--
years. Ruth Falk is the other student on the
committee.
After the official charges had been present
ed, Froth was to have been granted an equal
amount of time in rebuttal. But dile to the com.. ,
ments from the Froth representatives protestint
their lack of time for preparation of a defense,
Leroy S. Austin. associate dean of men, suggest
ed the possibility of a week's delay. The sug.
gestion was approved by all parties,

committee. He said 'he thought Dean Llpp and

State passes and recovered .onky
one tumble, but that bobble led
to- the only touchdown of the
game. More costly was a rash of
penalties and mental errors.
THE GAME opened on an ex
citing note as Army quickly
lined up in a spread formation
with only the quarterback and
center in the vicinity of the bull.
The Lions reacted well though
and broke up the play after a
short gain. But that play was
just an indication of things to
come as Dietzel ran his three pla
toons in and out or the battle
and the Black Knights ran play
without benefit of a huddle.
