Remote Control Operation
Of Power Plant Tested
An unannounced practice alert
far key pr ixinnel to operate Ilia
University power plant by remote
control was the latest experiment
In testing possible civil defense
devices
Starting at 6 a.m. Sunday, the
plant was operated, for four hours
by remote controls from a fall
out shelter control center within
tlie building. - -
THE TEST revealed that the
plant can be operated from the
shelter area, using the remote con
trols, according; to William F.
Fatula, chairman of the adminis
trative committee, to expand the
University's present civil defense
program. These controls include
a closed circuit television link to
read instruments and chock other
conditions in the building.
The test also showed that some
changes can be made to improve
the operation, Fatula said.
Fatula explained yesterday that
the big problem with running the
power, plant.by remote control is
that the engineers arc seeing
everything over a television screen
which gives them a different per
spective of the operation.
So that they can be more ac
curate ip thoir.operaUpnK, Fatula
said there will bo guidlines
painted on the equipmsyjt and
each man will work sometime this
Week on -the control panel to im :
prove his individual technique. \
THE CONTINUED operation of
the power plant in the event of
an emergency is considered vital
to the civil defenc system at the
University because the plant is
the source of heat and of electrical
power that operates deep well
pumps for the water system, the
disposal plant and the power
plant itself.
In announcing the weekend test,
Fatula also reported that the test
ing of the amplifier in Old Main
will continue with additional tests
Thursday afternoon.
Last week, initial tests Were
made of the amplifying system,
but they proved inconclusive,
Various types of tests will be
conducted between 2 and 4 p.m.

6:30 LOUNGE
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. UNIVERSITY PARK. PENNSYLVANIA*-
Students
Attack NS A
A Cuban student group recently attacked the United
States National Student Association for its support of Presi
dent Kennedy's stand in the Cuban crisis.
The Federation of Cuban University Students charged in
a telegram that NSA is supporting policies which could lead
to all-out warfare by backing the Kennedy administration
decisions. ' t
Allison Woodall, NSA coordinator for the Undergraduate
Student Government, said the Cubans attacked statements
made in a letter written by NSA President Dennis Shaul.
The letter represented Shaul’s understanding of student
feeling in this country, Miss Woodall said, and was not an
off icial policy adopted by Student fcongress. The
letter was distributed ter members of NSA and other inter
ested parties, presumably including the Cuban group. :
The Cuban's telegram said:
"FEU Cuba deplores the fascist, irresponsible and crimi
nal action of the Kennedy government in pushing th£ world
toward thermonuclear - war, 'which has been seconded by the
deeds and actions, of the USNSA.”
Shaul Sbnt the letter to member governments two days
after Kennedy announced his quarantine decision. »
Shaul also expressed the belief that Kennedy had acted
with great restraint on the question of Cuba, especially in
light of the provocative actions of the Soviet Union in Cuba?.
"Our.belief.!!Shaul wrote, "is that the vast majority of
the American students support the President’s policies as
defined in his broadcast of 0ct1'22."
Our hop.q, Shaul continued, Is that the United States and
the Soviet TJnion wljl recognize the United Nations as an
immediate forjjm for. working, ouj.a solutioxi..to. this, problem.
Dean Wharton; USG president, said last night that .Con
gress, will hear a report tonight from Miss Woodall on the
NSA Cuban position, as well as other subjects, possibly in
cluding its stand on the desegregation issue at the University
of Mississippi.
ETV Gasses to Altoona Called "Success 7
By LINDA SMETS
The closed circuit television
system which "links the"Altoona
campus with classes at University
Park is proving most successful,
Robert. E. Eiche, Altoona campus
director, said recently.
Although classes have, been
televised since 1955, It was not
until this fall that a Common

Fraternity houses are not in

"IF FRATERNITIES rent out

they would then be subject to

In addition to the housing code,
the State College Borough Coun

Atwater Points to Need for Mitigation
For More Effective Cuban Diplomacy
By NANCY IGAN
The deep hostility between the
United States government and
the Castro regime must be miti
gated before satisfactory diplo
matic relations can be resumed.
Elton Atwater, head of the depart
ment of political science, said
last night.
Atwater said that it was this
hostility whtch initially gave the
Soviets the opportunity to estab
lish missile bases on Cuban soil.
IN SUPPORT of Ibis' Iheory,
jAtwater suggested that Castro's
fear of possible United States
aggression was based on such
previous .United Statelet tons as
the l'.lfil invasion of" Cuba and
the continued occupation of
Guantanamo Naval Base. The fear
led to his acceptance of the missile
bases as a deterrent rather than
a means of mounting an offensive
attack on the United States, At
i water said.
j. The United States must work to
! reduce, this continuing hostility
