Johnson jumped into the lead at the very start, winning Ken tucky, a state that had gone Re publican in the last two elections, With this auspicious beginning, his lead was never in doubt. State after state fell to hint, including such big ones as Ohio, New York, Illinois; Michigan and Pennsyl vania. In the District of Columbia, now predominantly Negro and voting in a presidential election for the first time in 164 years, the results were a Johnson vic tory by over 90 per cent. Early returns showed Johnson ahead by better than 5 to 1. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Ken tucky confirmed this percentage. Democrat Robert F. Kennedy apparently won the U.S. Senate seat from New York, defeating incumbent Republican Kenneth B. Keating. With 37 per cent of the vote counted, Kennedy had 1,- Weather Forecast: Mostly Sunny, Warm VOL. 65, No. 29 Hershey # pening Dates Announced In a speech given before the University yesterday President Eric A.

Froth Rebirth Urged Walker Receives Alumnus Letter A current campaign on the part of a group of prominent alumni to revive Froth, the Uni versity's former humor maga zine banned by the administra tion in 1962, is still going strong. In the second alumni letter addressed to University Presi dent Eric A. Walker, Ronald S. Bonn, member of the New York office of CBS News, hit upon the Froth issue. In his letter Bonn asked the President to consider "whether Froth isn't a valuable enough Rush Rules Announced By Panhel Rules for the winter rush pro gram were announced last night by the Panhellenic Council.

Alumni Opponent Bonn stated that in the past he has been "a vigorous op ponent of alumni involvement with the operations of the Old School "because in most cases he feels it "tends to be delete rious, a nuisance and overly con cerned with football. He went on to say that the "stricken old Froth was, and, if we (the group of 24 alumni) can persuade you (President Walker), will again be an edu cational tool a major one, of the most valuable." "Just about the last course of action I should expect the Uni versity to take would he to lock out permanently one of the very few vehicles that allowed serious yes, serious students of journalism and the written arts to learn their trade in vivo.

Bonn added, "I am not making any brief for any particular issue of Froth, nor am I in this instance referring to any past action, either by the magazine or by the University. "I am simply urging that the future can and should include the Penn State Froth . . . not merely on the suffrance of the University, but with the active realization that it is for the good of the University . . . however painful that concept might ap pear at first blush."

But while winning as expected in Democratic New York City, Ken nedy also ran well ahead of Keat ing in many normally Republican upstate counties. Republican incumbent Hugh Scott, with over 80 per cent of the votes tallied, led his oppo nent, Genevieve Blatt, by approxi mately 30,000 votes. , The 63-year-old Scott fought in the face of a Johnson landslide that gave Democrats victory in Pennsylvania in a presidential race for only the fifth time in this century. Ticket splitting complicated the returns in Pennsylvania in the tense battle for the Senate seat. Both the Republican Scott and the Democratic Clark won their offices in the face of victories by the opposition party in the ticket heading offices of governor and President.

He served as dean of the college of medicine and chief of the University teaching hospital and clinics. Staff Selection A librarian has already been hired and a business manager will be hired soon, Walker added. Faculty selection will begin in the near future. Walker mentioned the prob-: ability of three more Common wealth campuses in the eastern part of the state. These would complement creation of the three new centers recently approved for the Uniontown, Sharon and Beaver areas. He said the eastern centers would have to meet criteria of the University and the State Council for Higher Education if they are to be approved. The President also called for creation of a "basket appropria tion" of state funds which would not he earmarked for any specific purpose. Proceeds from the "basket" could be appropri ated by the University as it sees fit. Report Approved In other business, the Senate approved a report by the Sen ate Committee on Educational I Policy which presented a state ment of distinctions between the lbachelor of arts and the bachelor iof science degrees. The present report grew from rejection of a report made to he Senate in May by the Edu cational Policy Committee which recommended that a B.S. or I B.A. degree "be offered only by the college in which the depart ment representing the major field is located."

But Mose Allison's own distinc tive style of singing and piano playing is aimed at pleasing the whole audience. By basing his songs on every day events, Allison allows his listeners to relate to the context, and ends up coming right down to the blues. There is humor in Allison's songs, and an attitude bred into him during his boyhood in the Mississippi delta country, where 'life is an easygoing as the river. An example of a point of view 'he describes as "Dionysian or Bacchic," Allison has named one of his albums "I Don't Worry About a Thing." He calls the title song "almost a party tune," taken from a saying Southern farmers use a lot "I don't worry about a thing, because nothing's going to be all right." During the mid-1950's Allison added the New York influence to his style, playing piano with Stan Getz, Gerry Mulligan, Al Cohn and Zoot Sims, Although he now feels his piano style has evolved into something very much his own, Allison has cited some far-back influences: Nat Cole, Erroll Garner, John Lewis and Thelon ious Monk. His singing voice—frequently compared to that of Hoagy Car michael—has been deeply in fluenced by Sonny Boy William son, John Lee Hooker, Lightnin' Hopkins and Percy Mayfield. Central Pennsylvania will have an opportunity to sample the blending of these geographical and musical influences when Mose Allison, along with two sidemen whose names have not yet been announced, comes to Schwab Saturday. Tickets for the performance are available at the Jazz Club booth in the Hetzel Union Build ing or Nittany News, at $1.75, or $1.25 for Jazz Club members. Dems Get Dußois DUBOIS, Pa.

In addition, contributions from in dividuals or organizations, may be mailed to Box 261, State Col lege, or brought to the office of The Daily Collegian, base ment of Sackett. The booth will be maintained today by members of University and Liberal parties. All three campus political parties have pledged their support for the I campaign. Gary Legon, chairman of Uni versity Party, said last night the party would assist in campus solicitation for the WDFM fund. James Conahan, chairman of Campus Party, and Brian Sher wood, chairman of Liberal Par ty, have made similar pledges to assist the campaign. Forced Off Air Appeals for funds to replace WDFM's nea r 1 y 30-year-old transmitter will be made to students, faculty and administra tive personnel, alumni and bor ough residents. The present transmitter has forced the cam pus radio station to go off the air numerous times during the past term for emergency re pairs. Kenneth Hershberger, station , manager, has estimated that al transmitter adequate fo WDFM's needs would cost the' full $15,000. Such a transmitter is "imperative" if WDFM is to continue to operate, he said. l Hershberger has prepared a 10-minute slide presentation of the WDFM situation, which he will show to interested major campus organizations. The pro grain will point out difficulties under which the station has been operating and will cite the need for a new transmitter. Promoters of the fund drive emphasized last night individual contributions will play a key role in the success or failure of the campaign.

With more than 90 per cent of the state tabulated, John son led Goldwater by better than 2 to 1. The basic choice offered to vot ers yesterday was between the Johnson plan of government pro grams that he contends are vital to public progress, and Gold water's call for lifting Washing ton's hand from the affairs of individuals and businesses. Other reasons for voting for one or the other included the new civil rights laW, which Johnson supported and Goldwater opposed.

Goldwater called this a lie, and he said no American would start a war. . Goldwater also campaigned on a "morality in • government" theme, especially criticizing John son's association in his Senate days with Bobby Baker, a Senate employee who resigned under fire during inquiries into his money-making outside deals. A factor that could not be fully weighed was the late-in-the-cam paign disclosure that Walter W.

Democrats won continued con trol of the Senate last night and moved into a commanding lead in the battle for the House.

He said the student • radio station "provides such a vital service for the University and the student body that it must be allowed to continue its op eration." There would be one stipula tion to the USG donation, how ever, Faucher said. Excess Returned • This is that "if once the transmitter is purchased there should be any excess of funds, the $l,OOO or as much of it as possible shall be returned to the Undergraduate Student Government." This money would then be put in a special USG fund set aside for the purchase of resi dence hall transponders, which convert FM radio signals to AM, Faucher commented. The $l,OOO donation, along with some $2,200 more in USG appropriations, will still have to be voted upon and passed at tomorrow night's 7 p.m. Congress meeting, before it is official, the vice president stated. Kenneth Hershberger, station manager of WDFM, will pre sent a ten-minute color slide film on "the background, his tory, organization and oper ation of WDFM," at the meet ing. - All interested students are invited to attend, Faucher said. The bulk of $2,200, some $1,560, has been designated for this year's Spring Arts Festi val. According to Faucher, the Spring Arts Festival will also solicit funds from downtown merchants in an attempt to raise another $5OO that is needed. In addition, $2OO is to be alloted to the USG Cultural Congress. This group is in charge of organizing and presenting next year's Projection program. Ac cording to USG officials, Pro jection which will take place next fall, is to feature Univer sity personnel, instead of pay ing outside performers to come in as planned at the project's inception. A $4OO appropriations bill will also come before Congress tomorrow evening for approv al. Tltis money is for the third Annual Model United Nations.
