installment in the May issue. When we come to deal with the
literary we are out of our element. The Lance has no literary
merit. Several times within a week it has been suggested to
make engineering a part of the magazine. Why not? Engineering
is that which interests, or should interest, three-fourths of the
students at State College, and there has not been an engineering
article in the Lance in years. Of course the board does not have
the experience necessary to run such a department, and would
have to rely on the professors and almuni for aid. Something on
this order must be done to awaken interest or there will be a death
and a funeral.
If you have any suggestions to make please write them for
publication. It is to your interest to write.
