In eonsideration of the fact that the movement has. secured such support from the executive body of the , college, it is certainly proper that the students do their part in furthering a project of like interest to both parties. There is ample opportunity for the student body to give valuable assistance, in the form of procuring letters from the President's office and after making a copy of them, send them to editors of your home city papers. With the letter en close a list of , the students attend ing, Penn State from your county and thus arouse the editor's interest to such extent that , he will be more than glad to use his influence in furthering the work. It will take about five minutes of your time to write one of these let ters and they may mean thousands of dollars toward the support of one of your most valuable assets—your college. Is it worth while? If you believe so, and if your sympathy is strong for the progress and the develop ment of the Pennsylvania State Col lege do this, and co-operate with the executive body in attaining .atisfactory results in the greatest ..eed the college feels. The Chapel A praiseworthy fea- Talks ture growing out.of the recent Campaign, is that of the short talks that have been given during the past week by faculty members at the ' morning chapel service. , These talks embody the oppor tunities of the intellectual man of the present day, and to what pur poses the content of his intellect 'may be applied. They have un doubtedly had a broadening influ ence on the student body and if it were possible, it would be a most excellent plan to have them per manently continued. No Collegian Owing to the fact Next Week, that next week will be the week of the final examina- tions, the Collegian will not be pub lished. The issue of the following week will, however, be out at its regular time on Feb. 1 The Cheer Leader The tam% Int* aitn.le taken tioin the Ohio State Unit eisity "Alurnia, Quartetly contAink, so maw,' truths applicable to conditions in all col- leges that it is worthy ot repi hump. "It the leader does his duty, no one on the field has a hauler posi tion to fill. If the Vaiisity is win ning, he must stand with his face toward the bleachers and direct the rooters in their , iejoicing, if the Varsity is losing, he must still stand with his back to the play ers, even though the white line is al that separates him from the scrim mage, and keep up the encouiage ment of the rooters and keep down the occasional cures of 'dirty' and 'rotten% or, if , a decision of an offi cial doesn't look good to the bleach ers the cries of `robber'; and all this probably while the slaughter ot the braves goes on at his elbow. It is no easy thing to do to keep impolite words from being u'tered, .yet the cheermastei must. do it. He, has little chance to watch the finer movements Of the game Whether a play is disastrous or suc cessful is a thing which he must find out from the countenances of the rooters or from individual voices on the bleachers. He must sacrifice the pleasure which he would' get from watching the game himself and con tinually keep his eyes on the crowd to be able to control and direct the feverish passion which he must lead. Every cheermastcr we have had during the past five years has told me that after a hard game he would leave the field completely exhaust ed. What is the make-up of a good cheer leader ? He must be one who can command. To demand a certain yell and then allow a few in the bleachers to sidetrack him his fatal Without organization, the cheering would degenerate into cat-calls. One man must control that organization- He must have music in him not only for the songs but for the yells also; he must be like the leader of an or- chestra and must time everything, and at times he Must fairly dance the yells in order to bind together and keep in time that vast volume of noise. Above all, the cheermaster must have a superabounding sense of fairness and sportsmanship. He must not be self-conscious. The part of his hair or the position of his tie is of no special importance the rooters. He must have their confidence. He holds, ' , the rep utation of the college in his hands and he must teach the whole army of undergrads the point of view of the honor line. Nc hissing, but good straight cheering. The teal worth of whole-hearted, straight and spoi ts man-like cheering is something we cannot measure. Many a time it wins the game. Many a time it turns virtual defeat into victory. And every time it hinds the students closer together in a common pride and loyalty."

Stover 'lO who is taking a post graduate couise at the Massachu setts Institute of Technology is leading his class and is considered by the faculty an exceptional stud ent. As the post graduates as sociated with Mr. Stover are drawn liom the best m ;terial of the En ginecting colleges throughout the country, this information should not only be pleasing to Mr. Stover but should also be considered a credit to our school of, Engineering where he obtained' his preparation Mr Howard Agee 'lO who is an Assistant in the Electric Laboratory at the same Institution is also, ac cording to the information received, making an enviable record for him self. Dean John B. Jackson made a trip on Friday to New York City to attend a committee. meeting of the Amelican Institute of Electrical Engineers, which is a committee for dectiical standards in this country. On Saturday he attended a meeting of the Franklin Institute of Electrical Engineers in Philadel phia. Professor E D.

Through the efforts. of Professor Gavier, the - Department of Elec- ti:cal Engineering has received from the Automatic Electric Co. of Chi cago an experimental automatic telephone equipment: By means of this apparatus it is possible to show all i f the operations involved in i,onnections foi calls on a 10,030 line exchange. With the addi'ion of one more selector, the method of handling calls on a 100,- 090 line exchange can easily be shown. The , apparatus is complete in every respect and is encased in a cabinet which opens on all sides, so that the pacts can readlly be in spected Three wall phones and three desk phones complete the equ;pmem, which is worth about $1,500. By means of this equipment the work along the lines of automatic t2lepbone engineering will be con sidciably broadened and enlarged, ',tinging it to a stage of develop meat far :n advance of that of many other schools, Indoor Athletic Contest A lot of enthusiasm has been aroused over the announced 10 event indoot athletic contest. Plans ate being perfected to start the reties at the beginning of the sec ond semester.
