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.

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. The Daily Re
veille, student newspaper at
Louisiana State University.
boldly stated Tuesday that
"it is imperative that Lyndon
B. Johnson be elected" against

Pennsylvania's Real Choice
The national Presidential
campaign is a choice between
two evils.
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

beliefs regard

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."
It is about time that students

facts which can easily be
slanted to a purpose and con

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.

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?

affect the choices they make
on Tuesday.
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

As a fin

mysteries of voting booths.
However, I've got enough
faith in the millions of this

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.
