Editorial 0 • inion A Common Bond Few strong bonds exist between students of separate universities. Pitt and Penn State students have always been rivals, but Penn State students have felt a common bond with few other schools— except the University of Maryland. The relationship between Maryland and Penn State students has grown rapidly since the football rivalry was resumed in 1960 after an absence of 16 years. The similarity of the two universities has made this bond even closer. Both are state univers ities, have similar enrollments and are growing too rapidly for existing facilities. Twenty-two fraternities and 15 sororities have chapters at both campuses. Student religious groups of the two universities have traveled back and forth, usually in conjunction with the annual football game. For the first time this year, the two student news papers are working together to publish a special edition for their weekend. For Maryland students, this weekend is the chance to discover the activities of a "college town." For ourselves as well as our visitors, it is a chance to compare notes on our respective schools, and in turn to become prouder of our own institution. Sharing our successes can provide more incentive for stagnant student organizations. Discussing our problems can provide new ideas and reassure us that all is not in vain. Student government, newspapers, fraternities, sororities and religious groups can learn much about themselves by making the most of this weekend. Next year we'll g , 9 at it again at Maryland's beautiful colonial campus outside Washington. Maryland Speaks Two years ago when more than 1,500 Terps in vaded Penn State we were "snowed out" both on and off the field. The Nittany Lions beat the football team and Penn State students beat Maryland pil grims on the dance floor with the fruge. Though we cannot predict what we will find this weekend at University Park, we are confident that Penn Staters won't disappoint us. We are equally confident that the famous Penn State hospi tality will be in abundance. To our hosts, Penn State, we say thanks for agreeing to the Away Weekend; to The Daily Col legian staff we say thanks for your help and co operation; to our team we say beat Penn State; and to our University students facing the onslaught of first round hourlies, book reports and papers when they return, we say relax and enjoy yourselves a' Penn State. Other Campuses Student Polls Show Victory for Johnson Results continue to pour in from mock elections at col leges and universities across the nation, giving President Johnson unprecedented vic tories for a Democratic can didate. At Princion University, which had not supported a Democrat for 48 years, stu dents gave LBJ a 66 nsr cent majority. At Yale University, Johnson received 70 per cent and Harvard University went a smashing 85 per cent against Sen. Goldwater. Yale students never before had supported a Democratic candidate. At Harvard, only three per cent of normally Democratic voters switched to Goldwater while 51 per cent of Republican students shifted to Johnson. In addition, college news papers are coming out strong ly for Johnson, even in the Deep South.

In Pennsylvania, however, a campaign with real issues is being waged between two senatorial hopefuls consider ed political renegades by their parties. Hugh Scott and Genevieve Blatt are rare gems in politic:; —they stand out as office hold ers who will fight for their beliefs regard less of the par ticular faction that at any giv en moment con- trols their part!, Scott worked hard againht the nomination of Barry Gold water and when the Arizona senator won, he refused to Letters To The Editor ADA Philosophy Scored by Trio TO THE EDITOR: During the question and answer period fol lowing the Young Republican- Young Democrat debate of Oct. 13, quite a controversy was raised over the question of whether the ADA, an organ ization of which Hubert Hum phrey is a founder and present member, is an "extremist" group. - Since then I have come across a statement of ADA be liefs and platform! •ADA calls for a total wel fare state for the United States. It supports government control, government planning, govern ment financing or government takeover in every field. • ADA wants to do away with the loyalty oaths, one of our defenses against Communists In our government. •ADA proposes recognition of the Chinese Reds and sup port for the Chinese Commu nists as the official govern ment of. China. *ADA stands for complete disarmament, except for the U.N. force. *ADA calls for doing away with the House Committee on Un-American Activities. These are the beliefs of the group to which Hubert Hum phrey pledges proud allegiance. The Y.D. representative also named the late President Ken nedy as being a former mem ber of the ADA while in 1953 Sen. Kennedy was reported in Post magazine as saying "I never joined the ADA; I'm not comfortable with those peo ple." Lyndon Johnson speaking at the Democratic Convention in 1960 said, "We don't want the support of the oddballs of the left or right the ADA or the KKK." While in 1964 he says, "Hubert Humphrey is the most qualified person other than myself to be President of the United States."

With the help of Sen. Joseph Clark, she showed a rare giff for winning votes when nearly every local Dem ocratic committee in the state opposed her. The Democratic nominee, who reminds me of an en thusiastic Sunday School teacher, is no stranger to such d o w n-to-the-wire elections. In 1954 she became the first do less of this Inconclusive back and forth bandying of facts which can easily be slanted to a purpose and con centrate on finding candidates who agree with their own per sonal political philosophies. It is perfectly clear what the Johnson ticket stands for, and despite intensive efforts to ob scure the real issue by scream ing about the minute changes in personal policy which are both right and necessary when a candidate takes on the re sponsibility of representing a major political party, I think it is perfectly clear what Sen. Goldwater stands for. —Thomas McDonnell, '65 Terry Shockey, '65 Queenelle Mind., '66 Senior Pans Two Pictures TO THE EDITOR: I quote from your editorial of Oct. 28: "College newspapers have had a great past, but the role they will take in the future is still uncertain. The present trend toward a more respon sible press cannot be cut short." With this statement I wholeheartedly agree. But I have one question. I know that it is more costly to place a photograph in the same amount of space that written material would oc• cupy. But even if this Were not true arid the costs were equal, why do you choose to pick pictures as the student in the Lion's Den or the pumpkin patch of Oct. 27?

Althou'it Dr. Seger does have a poitit (senior citizens, many with reduced vision, MAY be disturbed by light ing problems), I can't help Wondering at the importance of his campaign and whether it will give rise to others. FOr example, what's to keep the interior decorators from .ad- Vtidatitig more Ctilorfiii Cur tains in polling places? The percentage of ballot errors resulting from poor il lumination can't be very great. But what about the number of ballots which should be invalidated be cause they have been tam pered with? Wouldn't it make more sense to conduct an all-out campaign against those who: pay others to vote (having previously offered free "ad vice"), manage to jam vot ing machine 'levers, resurrect the dead for a on .day stand, discard legitimate ballots as "invalid" or even erase ballot markings? Remedying .faulty lighting should be a fairly simple job. But how do you over come the difficulties encoun tered in an attempt to in still integrity and moral val ues in the minds of certain cogs in political party ma chinery? "In urging improvement of lighting and visibility for vot ing booths, Dr. Seger added that voters and candidates alike will welcome the re assurance that every single vote Cast is rightfully re corded." The good doctor was ob viously wearing his rose colored glasses when he made this statement. Anyone con cerned with what happens in Washington (or locally, for that matter) during the next four years should be expected to make his own choice Tues day, even if he must carry a flashlight or Halloween can dle into the booth with him. Lighting is one thing, Dr. Seger. How do you ensure that "every single vote cast is rightfully recorded" • . • and counted . . . once John Doe leaves the voting booth? v ''l It's not enough that no one knows Where Khrushchev is, that DeGaulle is plAyipg fOotty with everyone or that Red China doesn't like stand ing in the wings . . now we have to contend With the American Optometric Asso ciation as it presses for bet ter illumination in voting booths. Acccrding to a recent Sews relelse from the association, its president: Charles E. Se ger, has "call' d upon com munity electi officials to ii prove tht vi bility in trot' areas ih ah fort to not of assist voters ElMt!! ballots but also ensure t correctness each ballot." As a fin time voter, al__ an absentee to MISS EOAN boot, I'm untutored in the mysteries of voting booths. However, I've got enough faith in the millions of this country's civic-minded adults to feel relatively certain that poor lighting isn't going to by John r. thompson woman to be elected to a statewide Pennsyvania office and she was re-elected two times—in 1962 by only 1,390 votes. By all indications, the Scott- Blatt race is still a toss-up. If Scott wins despite the expected thumping of Gold water, it will be a tribute to progressive Republicanism in the state and a further repudi ation of Goldwater's negativ ism. If he loses, Gov. Scran- ton must take much of the blame. If Genevieve proves the vic tor, it will be clue not only to a Johnson landslide but to her crusading spirit as a public official of the first order. Pennsylvania cannot lose either way. Editorial Praised By English Head TO THE EDITOR: I have just read your editorial entitled "PSU Pride."
