Great Pumpkin Here To Greet Halloween Shades of Charlie Brown and The Great Pumpkin will be clearly in evidence today both in and around the Hetzel Union Building as the HUB Special Events committee deco rates for Halloween Eve. Under the direction of Chair man Linda Fenner, the com mittee has managed to make the HUB_ patio an inviting place for the Great Pumpkin to visit tonight—with the help of the University meteorology department. A weather balloon donated to the special events group has been given a coat of orange latex , paint and set in the open area., Although its purpose in re ality is to make radiosond ob servations in the atmosphere, the only thing that makes the balloon suspect of double serv ive is the heavy weights anchoring it. Real pumpkins just aren't filled with helium. Special Halloween decora tions have also been placed in the Lion's Den. Students will pass through a large pumpkin placed at the main entrance and the Den will be dressed Group Holds Apple Sole lota Alpha Pi Sorority col lected $75 yesterday in its sale of candied applies. The sale, which will end today, is expected to make a profit of $125, ac cording to Judi Knutson; chair man of the sale committee. I Profits from the sale will be given for muscular dystrophy' research. Apples may be purchased at• Keeler's on South Allen Street, the foot of the Mall and at Mc- Lanahan's.

By JUDY RIFE The extent of damage can not be determined for three or four more days, Mueller ex plained, because housemen are cleaning the area. An insur ance adjuster must check the amount of personal property ruined before a cost can be disclosed. He stated that the locker storage room and a door were damaged by the flames. Awake and Ready As for tonight, students can sleep well; fire-resistant build ings, the University safety supervisor and the Alpha Fire Company are wide awake and ready to respond to any emer gency, even another Pollock fire. According to Stanley H. Campbell. vice president for business, "all University build ings are as fire-resistant as possible in compliance with the state's Department of La bor and Industry require ments." He added that some campus buildings are "under going renovation to increase and improve their safety from fire." Fire alarms and extinguish-, ers are located in every build-' ing. Fire alarms ring only in the building in which the' alarm is sounded; the Alpha; Fire Company must be sum- , moned by telephone. Safety Supervisor Calling the University a "safety-conscious" institution,; Campbell. noted that Penn, State emloys a full-time safety; supervisor, whose job centers, around the "spotting and cor rection of danger spots." The safety supervisor, How ard 0. Triebold. coordinates all , University fire-safet y activi-; ties, such as residence halls ,fire drills. W. Murray Carr, insurance manager, in explaining the re lationship between the UniverE sity and the Alpha Fire Com pany, said Penn State gives support to the company "in kind and in cash. "University policy calls for a yearly monetary contribution to Alpha's funds and for the release of University em ployees, who are company members, at any time of the night or day." ' Carr said this "community 'cooperation" replaces the need for a University fire corn pany. in traditional tones of orange and black. A large witch will add to the total decor and, according to Miss Fenner, the washroom will sport a few surprises re lating to the theme also. The Halloween project typi fies the committee's efforts to enable students to enjoy a special touch now and then during a hectic term. •mminuwi Alumni By ALLAN FRIEDMAN A group of 24 alumni have asked E the University for 'the reinstatement E of the Froth humor magazine. = In a letter addressed to President r-. Eric A. Walker, the alumni stated they would like to "register em = phatically" that in their opinion the magazine should be allowed to re = sume publication. = They suggested "certain changes = in its organization might be worth - = while, and that a number of steps = might be taken to ensure' its return F.." to good sense, decent publishing prac = tice and its continuity." ' Walker had no comment on the letter at the present time. The" history of Froth dates back to 1910, when it first appeared. It ceased publication during prohibition but reappeared in the 1920'5.,1n 1929 it adopted a format similar to the New Yorker Magazine and continued LI publication until it was banned by the administration in 1962. The last issue to appear was Oct. 3, 1962.

Bolivia Cancels Czech Relations Bolivia broke diplomatic relations with Communist Czech oslovakia yesterday, accusing the Czech embassy of fomenting student riots and other disturbances that have raged here for days. Earlier in the day President - Victor Psz Estenssoro sent troops into the tin mining cen ter of Oruro, where miners and students proclaimed a rebel lion against his regime after a series of clashes. Anti-government radio broadcasts said possibly 30 per sons were killed in a clash on a highway near Oruro, 143 miles south of the capital. There was no confirmation from the government. Queen Bout Deadline Extended Deadline for the Military Ball queen contest has been extended to Nov. 9. The deadline was orig-' inally set for today, but because of interest shown it has been extended. Military Ball will he held Nov. 20, on the eve of the Pitt-Penn State football game. The queen will be chosen during the ball. Semifinals will be held Nov. 4, 5 and 9, when contestants will i be interviewed. At that time the field will be narrowed to 18 ;coeds, with six representing each branch of military service. Each candidate will be voted on by all cadets in their respec tive branches Nov. 11-17. Two coeds will then represent each service. Finally, contestants will be judged the night of the ball by a board of faculty members. Applications and tickets may be obtained at the Hetzel Union desk or in Wagner. All candi dates must have a military sponsor-escort.

Petition Reinstatement 'Froth' UNIVERSITY PARK, PA., FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 30, 1964 BULLETIN An anonymous telephone caller reported yesterday that a bomb had been planted in Mrs. John F. Kennedy's new apartment on Fifth Avenue. However, the threat turned out to be a hoax. A Secret Service agent said, Mrs. Kennedy and her two chil dren, John 3, and Caroline, 6, were not evacuated from the apartment during a massive search. Police originally report ed she was forced to leave. A roof to cellar check of her building at 1040 Fifth Avenue, at 85 Street, lasted almost two hours. Police, firemen, secret serrice men and FBI agents, to part. Nothing suspicious was uncovered. Return Urged the group, Samuel S. Vaughan, class of 1951, commented in his letter that "at the same time, no one with whom my associates and I have talked is for any kind of tight censorship or wishes to see produced an antiseptic or anemic shadow of one of Penn State's long-standing and authentic traditions, Controls Not Inherent , "Froth has been many things— from unfunny and perhaps unwanted to, in several periods, successful to the point of national eminence." The letter. went on to say that "a true university encourages dissent, opinion, even attack. On the other hand, as any number of who have served as its editors, business or other managers have proven, and taught our staffs, a college humor magazine need not be scurrilous, 'sexy,' or irre sponsible to be funny." - As a spokesman for the group, Vaughan proposed the creation of an alumni Board of Governors to carry out a six-point program aimed at re establishing, aiding, and assuring the I 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 POR A BETTER PENN STATE Bomb Threat Hits Kennedy Apartment A male caller dialed the op erator first at 5:12 p.m. and told her a bomb would go off in Mrs. Kennedy's apartment, but erroneously listed the ad dress as 1050 Park Avenue. Po lice checked that address and found nothing there either. Meanwhile. at 5:20 the same man called back and by sheer coincidence got the same tele phone operator. This time he said: "The reason I'm calling is I want the children out of the house." He set the time for the explo sion at 6:50 p.m. The search was still underway at Mrs. Ken endy's Fifth Avenue building when that deadline passed with out incident. Mrs. Kennedy moved into the apartment Oct. 14. The next day President Johnson, while in New York, paid her a courtesy call there. Following her husband's as sassination last Nov. 22 in Dal las, Tex., the former first lady moved out of the White House into a 14-room home she pur chased in the Georgetown sec tion of Washington. magazine's publication. Staff Reorganization The first point emphasized was the welcoming and indoctrination of new staffs. The group suggested that help from "a number of older men and women who have served on the magazine and who are now installed in various positions of trust and re sponsibility involving the printed (or televised or advertised) word, would serve a useful purpose." The group noted that the hardest part would not be in finding people, but in finding the right people. It feels the job of the incumbent staff or interested faculty members is to help gather a staff. They suggested the use of wide-spread publicity of the return of the magazine far in advance. The Board suggested material not be censored but that they would be able to read the magazine and make comments on a voluntary basis which could be accepted or rejected by the staff.

Rally the world: oct. 30 Final Nobel Prize Given The 1964 Nobel Prize for physics was awarded jointly yesterday to an American and two Russians for basic contributions to the discovery of the maser-laser effect, a fabulous harnessing of radio and light beams to serve mankind. The Royal Swed ish Academy of Science directed that half of the $53,123 prize money go to Charles H. Towne, 49, provost of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The rest goes to Nikolay Basov, 42, and Prof. Aleksander Prochorov, 48, of the Soviet Science Aca demy's Lebedev Institute in Moscow. Pos sible uses of the beams in physics, com munications, medicine and surgery appear almost unlimited. The laser also is reputed to have potential value as a military death ray. Working as a professor of physics at Columbia University in New York, Townes initiated the maser-laser principle in the 1950'5. Basov and Prochorov pursued simi lar work in Moscow. The three men worked independently. New Regime Desires Peace The journal of the Soviet party Central Committee declared yesterday the party's decision—meaning the ouster of Nikita Krushchev—`'expressed the will of the en tire party, of the entire people." The new regime is reportedly a collective leadership that will pursue a peaceful foreign policy. It called for a world Communist meeting as proposed by Khrushchev but opposed by Red China. Communist sources said publication of the indictment of Khrush chevs leadership might come by Nov. 6. While Soviet propaganda organs blaze away at Khrushchev, the fallen premier is re ceiving a pension of $l,lll and has a four room apartment near the Kremlin, usually reliable sources said. The Central Commit tee said it saw signs of dictatorship, nepo tism, a foul-up in the economy. Viet Nam Calls U.S. Brazen Communist Nort Vietnam charged yes terday that warplanes and naval craft of the U.S. "and its agents" attacked parts of the southern province of Quang Binh on Wednesday. The implication was that the agents were Laos and South Vietnam. Con firmation from U.S. defense officials in Washington was lacking. Eight U.S. planes Skirts, Shirts To As Males Mock Next Saturday male students will be given the chance they have long awaited—that of show ing Penn State coeds what they really look like to the opposite sex. "Miss Fashion Miss-Fit of 1964" a fashion contest for males only—will be presented by the Hetzel Union Special Events Committee from 7:30- 9 p.m. in the HUB ballroom. Male students will model night w ar, beachwear, dormwear, maternity wear and evening wear of Penn State coeds. Prizes will be $25 for first place, $l5 for second place and $lO for third. The committee has not dis closed the master of ceremonies or the judges of the contest. "We will say that the judges will be professors from the various col leges," Krivanek said. Short Blurbs The contest will be patterned after the Miss America Beauty Pagent. Model's clothes will be described as they walk before the audience. From each cate gory a finalist will be selected who will have to answer various By FRANNIE SPAIN questions posed by the judges. The three finalists will be judged on the costumes and quick answers. Applications for entrance in the contest can be obtained at the HUB desk, and should be completed and left there before Nov. 1. "The purpose of the fashion show," said Robert Krivanek, project publicity chairman, "is to stir up some action during the slowest weekend of the term. Funny, Different "Since there is an away foot ball game that weekend we decided to plan an event that would be funny and different but would not occupy the entire eve ning. Spectators, which will include coeds, attending the fashion show will have to pay 25 cents admission for the privilege to marvel at how a coed appears to male observers. The committee has decided to donate show proceeds to radio i station WDFM for the purchase of a new transmitter.

The Communists did not say exactly which coastal areas were hit or what types of naval craft were involved. No mention was made of any casualties or damage, but the reported incidents were denounced as "brazen acts of aggression that constitute most serious violations of the 1954 Geneva agreements on Viet Nam and the 1962 Geneva agreements on Laos." Vietnam has been backing a propaganda campaign by Cambodia against U.S. and South Vietnamese armed forces trying to wipe out Communist guerrilla bases along the Cambodia frontier. Johnson Discloses Message In a speech in Salt Lake City in which he stressed a foreign policy of caution and restraint coupled with. strength, President Lyndon B. Johnson for the first time dis closed the tone of a message he received this week from Alexei N. Kosygin. "He said the Soviet government would maintain its present policies and would seek better relations—and maintain its own search for peace—with the West," John son said. I 411 Malaysia Stops Third Invasion About half of the 60 Indonesian guer rillas who landed on the southwest coast of the Malaysian mainland early yesterday were seized and the rest are pinned down in the swamps, a military spokesman said last night. British, Australian, New Zea land and Malaysian troops were moving in for the mop-up of the third invasion oper ation from Indonesia in less than two months. Of all three operations, part of Indonesia's campaign to crush the British backed federation of Malaysia, this one appeared to have been bungled the most. By official account, the guerrillas came across the narrow Strait of Malacca from Sumatra in five fishing boats believed to have been captured from Malaysians in numerous sea skirmishes. The government also announced it had broken the back of the Pontian and Labis invasions. Switch Misses Miss Fashion Miss-Fits will look like. To publicize the event, sev eral male students in feminine attire will parade around cam pus today and Beaver Stadium tomorrow during the Maryland- Penn State football game. Although Miss Fashion Miss Fits is to be the major event sponsored by the Sepcial Events Committee, it will pull off vari- , ous pranks this term.. Holiday Celebration To celebrate Halloween, the committee is decorating the Lion's Den with balloons, launch ing a seven-foot balloon on the HUB pa ti o, constructing a "Pumpkin Tunnel" which will have its mouth leading into the card room, and assemblying an eight-foot witch with a pumpkin head in the Lion's Den. All the HUB committees are planning a Thanksgiving Day spectacular for students remain ing on campus for the holiday. "We •are going to be a foster mommy and daddy to the stu dents," Krivanek said. Study Abroad To Sponsor Open House An open house for all students who have participated in the Cologne portion of the Study Abroad Program will be con ducted today from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in 124 Sparks. Rudolph Wildenmann, profes sor of political science at the University of Manheim, will preside at the open house. Wild enmann taught the political sci ence course offered to Univer sity students who studied at Cologne last year. Foreign policy and defense are Wildermann's main fields of interest. He has observed British elections procedures and cam paigns and is currently in the United State's for the purpose of studying American elections. He holds the chair for political science at the Academy of Eco nomics in Manheim, Germany and has also studied in Switzer land, the Netherlands, England and the United States. Wildermann is also the author of numerous articles and several books, the latest being "Power and Consensus", published in 1963. Peer Judgment --See Page 2 SIX CENTS By WILLIAM F. LEE In the true tradition of the old-fashioned railroad whistle-stop tour, presiden tial hopeful Barry M. Gold water traveled through the heavily industrial portions of central and western Pennsyl vania yesterday, making a stop at Lewistown, 30 miles from the University. On hand to greet him were some 50 University students who had traveled there in a 13-car motorcade. The tour, Goldwater's third and last swing through the Com monwealth, started at Harris burg early in the morning and ended at Pittsburgh last night with a rally at the Civic Arena. Included were stops at Lewis town, Huntingdon, Altoona, John town and Greensburg. Cheering Greeters A cheering crowd of about 1,000 persons, many of them of high school and college age, was on hand to greet the Republican presidential candidate at Lewis town. Despite a light drizzle • that persisted throughout the morn ing, the crowd gathered early at the station. The area in front of a trackside podium was filled with people by the time the 12- car train, chartered by the Re publican National Committee, arrived. Speaking before the Senator were various state candidates, including Judge Robert E. Wood side for Superior Court, and W. Stuart Helm for auditor general. Other passengers on the train included state Republican Chair man Craig Truax, who helped coordinate details of the journey, and H. Beecher Charmbury, s t ate mine secretary and professor of mineral preparation at the University, who said he "just came along to see what these things are like." Band Music Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. Ray mond P. Shafer introduced Gold water, and the grey-suited can didate and his wife Peggy emerged from the rear of the train amid band music and en thusiastic cheering. Taking his place at the ros trum, Goldwater first said •he had just noticed in the morning newspapers that President John son was pressing the theme "Get Up Early and Vote." Goldwater asked rhetorically: "How can the President press a theme like that when there are many bigger issues in this cam paign?" Then the GOP candidate re ferred specifically to the de pressed conditions in this area of the state, sometimes consid ered a part of Appalachia, and cited as a vital issue the number of area residents looking for work. Referring again to the John son "theme," he added: "If the President can keep the news papers printing for the,next few days, you know who's going to win this election." Goldwater said in his opinion the main issue at stake in the 1964 campaign is "what kind of country do you want?" Dignified Peace "Do you want a country that accommodates Communists," he said, "and that seeks to coexist with an enemy that is bound and determined to bury us? I want to try to get peace, an honorable peace, a peace for dignity." Goldwater then returned to his prepared material, which he stressed throughout yesterday's tour, and in which he sought to clarify his position on social security. "The President has used cheap, degrading tricks to falsify my position on social security," he said. "I have a social security card and I pay social security, and I don't intend to tear up my card or anyone else's." He then stressed his voting record in the Senate, saying that he "voted for every social se curity bill that came up in the Senate that I thought would strengthen and not weaken So cial Security." He also said: "I, along with a majority of other Americans, am 'opposed to the misnamed (Continued on. page three) Wiiden mann To Lecture Rudolph Wildenmann, political scientist at the , University of Mannheim, Germany, will speak to a seminar of graduate stu dents and faculty members at 3:30 p.m. today in 124 Sparks.
