Bellefonte Academy Improvements for
Coming School Year,
v Announcement has been made of a
number of decided improvements and
innovations which will be quite no-
ticeable at the Bellefonte Academy
the coming school year.
First, is the engagement of a one
hundred per cent. coach for all
branches of athletics in the person of
Karl W, Bohren, of Pittsburgh. Mr.
‘Bohren was a member of Pittsburgh
champion eleven the last year “Pop”
Warner coached at that University,
he playing a halfback position. He
was named on one of Walter Camp's
all American elevens. He coached
the St. Vincent college eleven very
successfully for two years, and then
refused to sign a five year contract
to continue the coaching at that col-
lege.
Second, the recent purchase of the
quaint and beautiful Friends meet-
ing house property adjacent to the
Academy campus on the south will
enhance the value of the institution.
The manse on the property will be
rented until it is needed for school
purposes while the meeting house has
been repaired and is being converted
into two large class rooms which will
add to the educational facilities of the
Academy.
Third, provision has been made to
have all students not participating in
football, tennis, basket ball, baseball
and track given special physical edu-
cation. A trained, experienced and
competent instructor, Louis Heine-
man, will bein charge of this import-
ant work, now required by the sec-
ondary schools commission and the
State educational commission.
Fourth, a new and complete library
will be installed in the large class
room, used for many years by the
modern language department.
The Bellefonte Academy will open
the fall term on Wednesday morning,
September 12th, at nine o’clock.
Young men from Bellefonte and Cen-
tre county are cordially invited to en-
roll as day students. Young ladies,
also, who may desire to pursue spe-
cial course work will receive every
possible attention. For several years
past a few young ladies have been
permitted to enjoy the privileges of-
fered by the Academy.
Any one wishing to secure some of
the old benches used in the Quaker
meeting house as souvenirs, may get
them by applying at the Academy.

Court Cases Disposed Of.
At a special session of court, last
Friday morning, the case of Mrs.
Alice E. Allen against her husband,
James E. Allen, charged with deser-
tion and non-support, was heard. Mr.
Allen, prior to his arrest several
weeks ago, was a truck driver at
State College, ang testimony was in-
troduced to show that his earnings
were approximately thirty dollars a
week. Mrs. Allen asked support for
herself and two boys, aged 4 and 2
years. The court ordered the recre-
ant husband to pay the costs and $30
a month for the support of his wife
and children and to give a bond in the
sum of five hundred dollars to insure
the faithful carrying out of the
court’s order.
On Monday Judge Fleming handed
down an opinion in the case of the
Commonwealth vs. J. P. Johnston-
baugh, convicted at the February
term of court of arson, for the burn-
ing of his own automobile to prevent
it being seized by the sheriff for a
legal debt. Following his conviction
an appliaction was made for a new
trial and the case argued at the last
session of argument court. In his
opinion Judge Fleming stated that
Johnstonbaugh had had a fair
and impartial trial, that the verdict
as returned by the jury was warrant-
ed by the facts and evidence in the
case, hence the motion was dismissed
and Johnstonbaugh was ordered
to present himself before the court
tomorrow (Saturday) morning for
. sentence.

Robert Thena Presented with Bellefonte Again Asked to Entertain !
| Rev.
Car by Congregation.
Sunday was a red letter day for
Rev. Robert Thena, pastor of the Re-
formed church of Bellefonte. During
the two years of his pastorate here
he has been nothing loath to stretch
his legs on the hills of Bellefonte in
visiting the sick and making pastor-
al calls. He did it as a religious and
conscientious duty and without gz
murmur of complaint.
On Sunday morning he preached
one of his always interesting ser-
mons and before pronouncing the
benediction announced that he had
been requested to ask the congrega-
tion to resume their seats and remain
for a congregational meeting follow-
ing the benediction.
ed their seats Nelson E. Robb arose
and made some announcements re-
garding a Brotherhood outing then
asked Rev. Thena to come down out
of the pulpit as he had something
personal to say to him. As the pas-
tor came down Mr. Robb took him by
the hand and said that first he want-
ed to tell him that the congregation
was not going to ask for his resigna-
tion, but because of his faithful serv-
ice since he has been in Bellefonte;
his profound and eloquent sermons
his parishioners were presenting him
with an automobile, and he invited
the car, a new Chevrolet coach. The
pastor was completely surprised as he
had received no intimation of the in-
tention of his congregation. He was
also considerably affecteq by this ex-
feeling. As he has never had a car
of his own the gift will be all the
more appreciated, sory
RS
Scholarship Award Open to Centre
County Girls.
Young women of Centre county who
expect to enter the Pennsylvania
State College in September will have
Olewine scholarship which is award-
ed each year at the opening of the
college.
Through the generosity of Mrs. M.
Elizabeth Olewine, of Bellefonte, and
an alumnus of Penn State, the schol-
arship, worth $100, is presented each
year through a competitive examina-
tion to a young woman who is a resi-
dent of this county. Competitors
must be High school graduates or
must have attained the standing of
such. Each contestant must have
matriculated as a student in the
Freshman class in any regular four-
year course at the college.
The scholarship will be awarded
by means of a competitive examina-
tion in the subjects of English, alge-
bra and American history. The ex-
act time of the examination, which
will be held soon after college opens
in the fall, will be announced during
Freshman week.
This fund is given only to Fresh-
man girls at the college and is held
for one year. Last year Miss Isabeile
Wieland, daughter of Mr. and Mex.
W. 8. Wieland, of State College, re-
ceived the prize. All Centre county
girls who expect to enter Penn State
this fall are urged to try for the
scholarship which is given for the
whole-hearted purpose of helping
students financially.

the benefit of Wetzler’s Junior band.
