Johnson Shows Tour Fatigue
MANlLA—President Johnson, not yet at the halfway
point of a jet-speed Asian tour, says he has never felt
better. At times, however, he. looks tired and his throat
becomes hoarse.
Johnson has had no illnesses of any consequences
since his gall bladder-kidney stone operation a year ago.
Characteristically, the energetic chief executive pictures
himself as feeling as good as ever—if not better. There
have been evenings along his trans-Pacific route, how
ever, when he has seemed very tired to most observers.
That was the case Saturday night when he pulled into
Brisbane, Australia, near midnight, after appearances at
Sydney and Canberra.
Johnson simply didn’t display his usual zest during
handshaking sessions along his Brisbane motorcade route.
He seemed to keep going on nerve alone. But it was a
different story Sunday. The President appeared bouncy
again—though he couldn’t have gotten much more than
six hours sleep before flying to Manila via Townsville,
Australia
Vietnam Civilian Casualties High
NEW YORK—Vietnamese * civilians are suffering far
more casualties in Vietnam than U.S. arid South Viet
namese military forces, an American doctor back, from
a study there said yesterday.
Dr. Wayne W. Hall said both declining health con
ditions and' war violence are taking their toll among the
native population. “Many more civilians are injured by
bombs than army personnel,” he said.
' At a hospital in Saigon ’ serving both military and
civilians he said the war-injured ratio was 10 civilians
to one soldier. Noting that more than 5,000 Americans
have died in Vietnam since 1960, he said in an interview
that there are 5,000 civilian deaths from the war every
six months. Many of these, he added, die from wound
infections which are not adequately treated. Hall said
that health care for civilians has gradually shrunk.
“The War is consuming the medical care and the
beds,” he said. “This leaves the average sick person who
would get well, if he were properly treated, without that
treatment. -The time and care goes to the war injured,”
he explained.

. Big Legislation Awaiting 90th Congress!
WASHINGTON—With the 89th Congress barely put of
town after two lengthy; action-filled sessions, a solid
agenda of major legislation already is building up for l the
90th Congress which meets Jari. 10.
Despite the success of this Congress in enacting mea
sures such as Medicare, aid; to education and truth in
packaging which had appeared on Congressional calendars
for years, a number of major-proposals remain alive with
a possibility of action ih 1967,
Heavy Democratic losses in the Nov. 8 election, how

operated in the 89th Congress with orfly a small working
margin despite 1 its heavy*,'theoretical majority. And even if
losses, are not heavy, some administration proposals seem
to have small chance. !
President Johnson already hhs made known one of his
major 1967 domestic proposals—an increase of about 10 per
cent im most Social Security benefits. The President, didn’t
say how he proposes to finance the, increase, and a big dis

Housewives Plan Supermarket Boycott
- PITTSBURGH A group of Pittsburgh area house
wives, calling themselves “Housewives for Lower Prices,”
announced plans yesterday-to boycott five grocery chains
in . a protest against food prices.
Mrs. Mae Adt and Mrs. Lois LeGros, co-chairmen of
the group of about 25 women, blamed rising food prices on
the promotional efforts of the grocery chains.
“We are asking all housewives to stay away from stores
operated by A&P, Kroger, Thorofare. Acme and Loblaws
bn Nov. 3,4, 5,” said Mrs. Adt, a mother of seven.
“The. cost of everything is going up, but if the house
wives can reduce their purchases to meet their budgets, then
the 'grocery chains can do something to bring food prices
down,” Mrs. Adt added.
The group’s plans are similar to those put into effect last
-week'by a group of housewives in Denver,- Colo., and followed
,-by several-other groups throughout the county..

MANILA f/P) The seven-nation sum
mit conference on Vietnam assumed today
the look of a high-powered peacfe offensive:.'.
President Johnson expressed confidence
at yesterday’s opening session that -allied
determination would bring about,negotiations
or an end to Red aggression. Leaders of other
nations laid' heavy stress on what they de
scribed as progressive weakening of the
Communist side.
The picture emerging from what evi
dently were lively discussions of all aspects
of Vietnam was one of an effort to convince
the Communist world that the cause of the
/Viet Cong insurgency had little future. The
, leaders met for nine hours.

Bus Dispute
Decision Awaited
By CHARLES REDMOND
_ Coilegian Staff Writer
At 7:25 every morning except Sunday,
a bus leaves Park Forest Village. The Pitts
burgh bus? No, this particular bus is heading
for downtown State College. From the Cor
ner the bus heads up College Avenue to
Garner Street. Around Pollock and South
Halls the bus then goes out Bigler Road
and turns onto Park Road.
Fir 20 cents any student who lives in
a residence hall can travel from down
town to campus by bus. 'At present the
Public Utilities Commission will not per
mit the bus company to schedule any round
trip rides.
The Suburban Express Company is the
operator of 1 the bus. L. R. Toney, president
of Suburban Express said he was awaiting
approval from the PUC to establish a regu
lar campus route.
According to Toney, the campus route
would run from the Corner Room to Short
lidge Road, from Shortlidge to McKean
Road and then to Bigler Road. From Bigler,
the bus would go to Park Avenue and back
do. Shortlidge,-,then-proceed to., Curtin Road
down, Burrowes'-.and back, to Jbe Cornet';
Room. .
Toney said the,,fare .would,be 15 cents
and-that no student would have to , walk
more than one block to catch one of the
'buses:' :
Present Bus Service
At the present the bus' service goes to
the residence halls and can not take any
'Student to class. Besides this limitation,
the bus serves only the north end of State
College,’around,the Park Forest-area. Vying
for a lucrative campus run' are Suburban
Express and Fullington Auto Bus Company
of Clearfield; '
According to Toney, Suburban Express
applied for the campus'run in 1960 but at
that time received word from the Univer
sity that the campus was intended to be
Ford Appointed Dean
Of Human Development
Donald H. Ford, nationally
known authority on psycho
logical counseling and psycho
therapy, has been named Dean
of the College of Human De
velopment, President Eric A.
Walker announced today.
The appointment is effective
TJan. 1, 1967. Dorothy Houghton
is Acting Dean of the College.
Ford has . been head of the
Division of Counseling at the
University since 1959, but lor
the past-year has been on leave
to serve as special assistant to
Walker for Federal affairs.
“The College of Human De
velopment seeks to apply basic
knowledge from the social,
biological and physical sci
ences to the improvement of
the quality of individual and
community life,” Walke’t said.
“In his direction of the Penn-
State counseling program, Ford
has specialized in, applying
knowledge from these disci
plines to the solution of prob
lems of a university student
population. •We believe the
same conscious effort to apply
basic knowledge to the prob
lems of all [population groups
can result in significant contri
utions to society.”
“There are well established
channels for transferring new
scientific knowledge into goods
and services through industrial
technology,” Walker continued.
“The nerid for transfer of in
formation in the human field is
infinitely'greater, but the effort
to date has-been much less suc
cessful.”
Comments on New Job
In commenting on his new
assignment. Ford said the pres
ent, faculty’s interests and
competencies would be broad

joint appointments with exist
ing colleges { of; the University,
or through entirely new mech
anisms. '

made in consultation with the people and
government of the Republic of Vietnam."
Warning of Resistance
This implied a warning that the Saigon
regime would resist an effort to approach the
Communist side without its agreement to
the terms.
The seven leaders met in (he paneled

Besides Johnson and Ky, the leaders are

Australia; Prime Minister Keith J. Holyoake

Marcos of the Philippines. Premier Thanom

a walking and cycling campus only. After
the addition of East Halls in 1963, the Uni
versity changed the ruling to allow for a
campus bus service. It was at that time
that, both Fullington and Suburban Express
applied again to the PUC.
The ruling change made by the Uni
versity may have been brought about by
student complaints about the long walk to
and from their residence halls, according
to Toney.
Student Passengers
At , the present time only about one
third of the bus passengers are students, and
these are usually students that live north
of town and do not have access to a car.
The bus usually carries from 65 to 100 peo
ple during its run, which begins at 7:25 a.m.
in Park Forest Village and ends at 6 p.m.
in front of the Corner Room.
According to Toney’s secretary the
wet days seem to be the worst for the bus
runs, probably because the people don’t
want to wait in the rain. The best days are
Saturdays when the State ; College High
School' and grade school children use the
bus to go’ to-and from the downtown area.
• Toney said' that in the past' six months
the number of people using the bus has
grown. “Potential extension has induced
people.'to-get into the habit of using our
bus service” said Toney.
Possibly Fraternity Service, .
Besides the service to and from the
classrooms, Toney said if the PUC approves
the route on campus for Suburban Express,
the bus will also Serve fraternities and other
large ~ gatherings such as concerts in Rec
reation Hall on weekends.
Toney said he thought Suburban would
receive PUC Approval for the campus route.
“Of course I may be a little prejudiced,”
he added. Besides the bus service, Toney
also owns the L. R. Toney Cab Company,
a charter bus service and school-bus con
tracts for State College. '
