“Espresso”—the strongest coffee you can find
and a stimulus like no other. Encounter' and dia
logue—the essential stimulants in a college com
munity. You can share them both at 415 E. Foster
Avenue, address of the Jawbone Coffee House.
In the 1600’s Charles II of England repressed
coffee houses as seminars of sedition. The Jaw

“Focus ’6B” opens at 6:30 p.m., Thursday preceded
by a peace dinner at 5:30 p.m. The topic for dis
cussion will be “Vietnam Focus: The Geneva Ac
cord.”
The emphasis at the Jawbone is on a growing
self-awareness through self-expression. It is a
place where questions are asked, doubts shared
and replies offered by any interested participant.
Keeps. Issues Alive
When peaceful conversation becomes heated
dialogue, the Rev. Arthur R. Seyda, campus pastor
for the Lutheran Student Association, pulls up a
chair and puts his coffee on the table. Pastor
Seyda, or “P.S.” to those iat the coffee house, keeps
the issues alive, and his presence is a vital part
of the Jawbone program.

William Cromer of The Daily
Collegian staff has spent the past
year traveling between' the Univer
sity and Harrisburg for more than
mere visits to his hometown of Dills
burg, approximately 10 minutes
from the state capital.
Cromer, a ninth term American
Studies major, has worked as the
liaison for the Undergraduate Stu
dent Government in Harrisburg on
issues ranging from bed fees at Rite
nour to the proposed tuition increase
for state colleges and universities.
When he embarks for Harris
burg tomorrow, the route will not
be unfamiliar to him. But his reason
for going is lor, an entirely new ex
perience, for Cromer is vying for
the state chairmanship of the Penn
sylvania Young Republicans.
Election of state officers will be
held this weekend at the statewide
Young Republican Convention in
Harrisburg. Meetings and caucuses
Friday night precede the convention
Saturday afternoon, followed by' a
banquet at which new administra
tors will address the delegations.
Cromer is hopeful of speaking at the
banquet as new party chairman.
Describing his position in the
Republican Party, Cromer, chairman
of the University’s Young Republi
cans, said he is a “progressive mod
erate Republican.” Despite this, in a
party known for its conservative
Pennsylvanians, Cromer has been
mistakenly tagged by some as a
"New York Republican.” But in re
ality, he is merely a Republican who
sees the need for young blood in
the party if the party is to survive.
As a “progressive,” Cromer ex-

plained that he does not “want to
go back 10 to 20 years with poli
cies.” Rather, he wants to “observe
problems of today and meet them on
the political grounds of battle.”
He said he is “moderate” in the
sense that he has a “very liberal
viewpoint” in looking at people and
their relation with the government.
He added that his liberalism extends
to the reaction of the government in
assisting groups of people who “can
not pull together to meet the needs
of the time.”
That he is moderate is further
exemplified by his not labeling the
Democratic Party as “evil.”
“I consider them the ‘loyal op
position’ and I have always been
willing to discuss party differences
and views.”
From his spot in “the middle of
the road,” as he described it, Cro
mer said the Republican party was
on the “outs.” His reasoning for this
is the internal strife of the party. He
said “The conservatives and moder
ates cannot get along.” He also said
that since neither side will listen to
the other, “the party has always had
a hard time pulling forces together.”
Cromer considers himself broad
minded enough to study views from
both sides. He attributes problems in
the past to a “failure by both sides
to look at the issues objectively.
“Now is the time for youth in
Pennsylvania to put some vitality
and dynamic maturity into the Re
publican Party, especially with the
Presidential election only a few
months away,” he stated.
The Democratic Party has al
ways formed a more youthful im
age to attract youth in elections and
campaigns, Cromer explained. For
this reason “many youths are ar-

“No man ever__ stands so

xnese lines contain the spirit
and meaning of the Big Broth
ers of America —an organiza
tion designed to provide a
man's friendship and guidance
to fatherless boys.
In this case the man is Uni
versity student Paul. Privette
(7th-general arts and sciences-
Pittsburgh), and the boy is a
2’/2-year-old named Brint.
Privette explained how the
two became acquainted. “I was
reading through the Collegian
classifieds, when I came across
an ad asking for a ‘big brother’
for a little boy,” he said.
On the asking end of that ad
was Mrs. Shirley Edwards (9th
family studies-Nape'wille, III.).
“I got the idea of a big broth
er from my own needs,” Mrs.
Edwards said. ‘‘Sons like Brint
without fathers need an adult
male around. There wasn’t an
orugnization in town, so I put
an ad in the paper.
‘‘There was a strong re
sponse with many veterans
answering. In fact, everyone
from hippies to fraternity men
responded,” she added.

University persons participate in this—faculty
members. The Wednesday night Student-Faculty
Dialogues are one of the rare occasions at Penn
State for take-off-your-coat-and-sit-down chats
between students and professors.
Next week, the Dialogue will feature a visit

old.Arab refugee who will lead a discussion' on
“The Arab-Israeli Conflict.”
Future Dialogues
Future dialogues will bring such men as Philip
Klass, assistant professor of English and a science
fiction writer, who will discuss the possible re
actions of earthlings upon finding life on another
planet. Other subjects will be “Computers and
Man—The Search for Truth,” and “Summer Fore
cast—The Problems Facing Our Cities."
Art and music are also vital on the Jawbone
scene. The walls of the coffeb house are covered
not only with the ingenious paint job of the regu
lar student volunteers but also by artwork. At
the moment, a show by Francis D. De Bellas (Bth
fine arts-McAdoo) is featured. (Every student at
Penn State has a chance to decorate the “outer”
walls this Saturday when the Jawbone will under

‘‘The idea of ‘big brother’ is
for a boy to have a friend that
he can count on and turn to
when he has problems,” said
Mrs, Edwards. “One little boy
never saw anybody shave! It’s
little casual things like that
that warrant having a big
brother program,” she ex
plained.
The relationship between
Brint and Privette is a working
example of the big brother
spirit, but Mrs. Edwards isn’t
satisfied to provide only for'
her own son, for she has taken
on the town of State College.
“There are approximately 85
boys in State College who need
the big brother- service,” said
Mrs. Edwards.
She explained that establish

of pre-planning and research.
First a number of committees
must be set up. Then it be

qualified in psychology and the

Through more active youth par

the party will increase its pace and
“keep up with the tempo of the

amount of time that the volun
teer can spend with the boy,”
said Mrs. Edwards.
She doesn’t foresee any diffi
culty in getting the volunteers.
“Some of the best successes
are with college students,” she
said. “A lot of older men aren’t
active enough. There are some;
real delinquents in this town
and it’s the student-veterans
who can work with them,” she
added.
Mrs. Edwards is also looking
to the College of Human De

of volunteers. “The College has
a new sub-division to coordi
nate community activities and
the freshmen enrolled there are
assigned protects. They're just
looking for things to do,” she
said.
With the successful big broth :

council. He said that Pennsylvania
is one of the largest states with many
colleges. Through more schools par
ticipating in college council more
youths will be introduced to the Re
publican Party, in addition to the
operations of the government.
He also stands for a study of the
problems facing youth in Pennsyl
vania—an issue on which he has al
ready worked, having served as re
search director for Gov. Raymond
Shafer’s Youth Advisory Board last
Spring. As head of this Council,
Cromer led investigations into im
proved traffic safety for youth in the
state and for ways to attract more
youth to remain in. the state.
From the council’s study
emerged the first movement toward
increased teacher’s salaries.
By comparing salaries of teach
ers from all over the state with
those in the country, the council dis
covered that Pennsylvania’s salaries
were lower than many of the others.
Legislation to adjust that situation
is presently under consideration.
Cromer said he also supports the
establishment of a speakers’ bureau
under Young Republican ipanage
ment to arrange for state and na
tional political leaders to speak at
campuses throughout the state. .
“Not only would this promote
a knowledge of events in state and
national government,” he said, “but
it would also serve to create an
awareness among Pennsylvania
youth of the Republican Party.

Dugan Display
Now at Pattee
Memorabilia of the late
author, James Dugan, have
been placed on exhibition in the
Rare Books Room in the West
wing of Pattee Library.
The display was prepared by
Charles Mann, chief special
collections librarian, from ma
terials loaned by the author’s
widow and from the Penn State
Collection. ,
Dugan, a native of Altoona,
attended the University from
1933 to 1937. As an undergrad
uate he served o.i the staff of
many campus publications and
was editor-in-chief of the liter
ary magazine, Old Main Bell,
while Vance Packard, another
noted author, was managing
editor.
Dugan’s first major work,
“The Great Iron Ship,” pub
lished in 1953, was a Book-of
the Month Club selection and
the basis for a three-part serial
in the New Yorker magazine.
A portion of the current exhibit
is devoted to this account of
the great disaster-ridden ship
that laid the first Atlantic
cable.
“The Great Mutiny,” Du
gan’s last completed work, pub
lished in 1965, is a feature of
the exhibit. Included are
prefatory materials and con
trol sheets used by the author
in assembling the book, crew
lists, ships’ names, calendars,
and, vocationary notes. The
book is dedicated to the late
William L. Werner, who was
professor of American litera
ture at the University.
Another section of the exhibit
deals with “Ploesti,” the ac
count of the great ground-air
battle of August 1, 1943, by
Dugan and Carroll Steward.
Dugan’s second major work de
scribes the flight to Rumania
without fighter escort to de
stroy Hitler’s vital oil refiner
ies. The display includes the
data assembled from survivors
of both sides and the descrip
tion of the battle by Ist. Lt.
Kappa Alpha fraternity.
“When you get involved in
something like this, you can
become a better person,” said
Mrs. Edwards, “You can
change the world a little.”
State Zip
(Ret.) Joseph F. Kill.
The exhibit also reflects
Dugan’s interest in oceanogra
phy. A close friend of Captain
Jacques Cousteau, underwater
explorer, whom he met follow
ing World War 11, Dugan joined
the crew and sailed with the
Calypso Marine Archeological
Expedition of Grand Conglove
Islands off Marseilles, France,
in 1952-54. On display is his
unpublished journal of the ex
pedition with its hundreds of
sketches and w'atercolors.
An ancient Greek amphora,
or wine vessel, recovered from
a third century B.C. cargo
vessel during the expedition,
was presented to the University
by Dugan prior to his, death in
1967. The amphora, 30 inches
high and encrusted with ma
rine fossils, and Dugan’s let
ter describing it in detail are
included in the exhibit.
Dugan is the author of "Man
under the Sea,” editor of Cap
tain Cousteau’s “Underwater
Treasury,” and wrote the nar
rative for the movie based on
Cousteau’s book, “The Silent
World.”
The Dugan exhibit will re

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 24, 1968
Residents of , York were
warned by a chamber of com
merce official: “All of the con
ditions of the minority group
which you have read about that
exist on a national level also
exist to some degree here in
York.”
And a minister at memorial
rites for King in Williamsport
said, “that we have no prob
lem here is the big li of Wil
liamsport.”
Dulaney’s article dealt with
ways in which the local press,
working with the leaders of the
white and black communities,
can help prevent the outbreak
of violence. There are no guide
lines, he said, since the prob
lem is so new to the small city.
He wrote in detail about the
situation last summer in
Sharon, where the town was on
edge because of rumors that
Negroes were threatening to
engage in violence. The news
paper and broadcast stations
carried no reports until a meet
ing of civic leaders and Negro
leaders was held.
News of the rumors was car
ried in the media, and the ten
sions were eased.
Afterward, there was debate
whether the media were right
in not reporting the rumors.
Dulaney quoted a police offi
cial on this double-edge ques
tion:
“One can only speculate on
the effect of the suppression of
the rumors. Some felt that the
lack of any coverage gave rise
to the belief that the situation
was more explosive than it ap
peared on the surface—that
coverage would have placed it
in proper perspective. Others
felt that no coverage by the
news,media helped to keep the
matter from being blown out of
proportion,”
Dulaney recommended that
the media in small cities give
continuous coverage of their
Negro community.
“Small-town ghettos may not
seem as threatening as Har
lem,” Dulaney wrote, “but the
same problems in housing, edu
cation, employment and op
portunity exist in both places.”
