ball team, is the new sponsor.

MONEY TROUBLES
When the committee of the mili
tary .ball saw that they did not have
enough money to pay all their bills,
they took the matter to Council. The
Council was reluctant to appropriate
the sum of money because it con
tended the military ball was •in no
way considered an activity of the
school. In the first place the commit
tee had not gone to the Activities
Board before they planned the af
fair. However, the one alternative
for Council way to pay the necessary
sum. The committee was admonished.
John Wersinger pointed out that
the Council had refused to appropri
ate any money to more worthy
causes. Students planning activities
should go through the proper chan
nels!

BLUEPRINT ..T9R, • BRAIN
Don't envy a brain!
You, too can become a brain by
devoting only fifteen minutes each
day for seven years to our intellig
ence formula. No books, study
hours or exams. Give our system
a three-year trial. Four out of
every three doctors who are today
eminent psychotics say they prefer
our easy Sur-Thing plan to any
other.
One of the secrets of our course
is diet. We first recommend one
dozen Dr. I. Q. candy bars before
breakfast. Majors in literature
should live on a diet of O'Henry
bars, and those majoring in law,
Harvard beets. After eating • these
tit is advisable to wash them down
with Penn State beverages or any
thing recommended by men of
distinction. French majors might
find it valuable to try Franco-
American spaghetti.
Another one of our plans for
the development of gray matter is
proper sleeping habits. Always
take a pencil and paper to bed
with you in the event that you
dream of something important.
After you• have said your prayers.
repeat the Constitution and in
come tax form to improve your
memory. Don't count sheep; count
logarithms.

Tips For Exams
Now would be an appropriate
time to give out with a few tips
for the forthcoming exams which
will give you an opportunity, in
cidentally, to see what knowledge
you have already absorbed from
our little brain formula.
Do all scratch work on your
head. Remember blank sheets will
be allowed 5 pointi for neatness,
and veterans of previous classes
will be given a 5-point handicap.
If all your answers are wrong, you
will be given 90 points for hones
ty. Read leisurely and be sure not
to think.
You will most likely be asked to
hand in your answer sheet when
you enter the room; do not leave
after that. The atteldansts will
see that your pens are discharged
of all ink and no pencil sharpeners
will be conveniently placed. This
way nothing will be able to dis
tract your attentions
With this advice everyone fol
lowing our system should make a

THOUGHTS IN THE
BREEZE
Beverly Silverma
.1 .
Farewell to all our friend's, old'and
new, who are going to the campus.
Hope you do not lose contact with the
Center. All non-personal letters re
ceived by this office will be published.
So drop us a line.
R. 0. T. C.'s first affair, semi-for
mal on January 7th, proved to be a
great success. Although the Army
uniforms were predominant the Navy
was represented by Art Edstrom.
News of the engagement of Mike
De Matt, former Center student, was
recently learned.
another f orm e'r
Center student,
who is now at the
Campus, has a
part in the Dra
matic Club's pro
duction, "All My
Morris Deitch
Sons."
Bet you never knew an authority
on how to make a home bar and club
room is at the Center. For original
ideas see Eddie Kuntz.
Polish and sharpen your skates for
an all-out College ice-skating party
which will be held' on the 28th. Now
We shall see who can cut fancy fig
ures in the ice.
Where is the Center spirit at our
basketball games ? Let's hear you
yell the cheers out loud.
Glad to hear Donald Smith is up
and about now.
There is music whenever Chick
from the "Rhythm Band" and John
Wersinger from the "Musical Nights"
are around. They are red hot.
Many thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Goss
for their Christmas cards with their
expression o-
,good wishes.

BORROWER'S OATH
I think that I shall never see
The dollar that I loaned to thee.
A dollar that I. could have spent,
For varied forms of merriment,
The one I loaned to you so gladly
The same which I now need so badly.
For whose return I had great hope.
.Just like an optimistic dope;
For dollars loaned to fools like thee,
Are not returned to fools like me.
In 1947, 630 persons were killed
and 21,000 injured on bicycles in the
United States. On a bike play - it safe!
