EDITORIAL
But two days remain before the
much talked of game. As State and
the Indians have not meet in foot
ball for years there is much specu
lation as to what will be the out T
come. Reports come from Carlisle
that the Indians have a wonderfully
strong aggregation this year. That,
however, will not deter our boys
from making one of the hardest
fights they ever did. The band will
be there in all its glory and nothing
yet remains except for those fellows
who havn’t decided to go along, to
do so at once. Boys, it will be a
lonely day in State College next
Saturday. Do you want to have an
attack of the “blues?” If not
don’t stay in State College next Sat
urday but take your pennant off the
wall and come along. We expect
to have over four hundred students
Harrisburg. How the spirit must
rise in our gridiron stars to have the
fellows there at the side lines, to see
the waving ocean of white and blue
and to hear the lusty yells go up
from half a hundred loyal backers 1
This is “Old Home Week” at
Harrisburg and thousands of people
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
have journied far to see the Capital
in gala attire. The game forms a
very fitting ‘ ‘ wind up ” to the fes
tivities. Fellows, you can’t be
students all your lives. In many years
from now you will look back and
think of the great time you had at
this game or, if you had not attend
ed, you will feel like kicking your
self.
Y. M. C. A. Concerts
The annual entertainment course
given by the Y. M. C. A. has been
arranged for as follows :
October 30, The Lotus Glee Club.
December 8, Durno, the Magician.
February 2, Mr. E. Livingston
Barbour.
February 23, The Siegel-Meyer-
Reed Company.
March 16, Mr. George R. Wend
ling.
It will be seen at a glance that this
course is well worth patronizing.
The Lotus Glee Club is one of the
best known companies in New York
and New England, and its reputa
tion is enough toguarantee to the
lover of music an evening of keen
enjoyment.
Durno comes here with a record
of delighted audiences, and will give
an entertainment that will drive away
the most persistent attack of blues.
Besides doing all the famous
“stunts” of Keller and other masters
of magic, Durno performs many
strange and laughable feats of
ventriloquism.
The presence of Siegel, the great
est living mandolin player, should
draw out a large crowd, as it will be
an opportunity not to be missed.
While in London and on the Con
tinent, Siegel won praise such as is
seldom given to an American mu
sician. He will be ably supported
by. Meyer, the pianist and Miss
Reed, the impersonator.
Mr. Barbour is already famous as
a monologist, having appeared be
fore scores of audiences from Bos
ton to Chicago. He .will give “David
Harum,” and it is safe to say that
there will not be a person in his
audience but will be delighted by
Mr. Barbour’s reading of this
famous book. Dozens of entertain
ment course managers pronounce
Mr. Barbour as their best attraction
and are loud in their praises of his
work.
Mr. Wendling is probably too
well-known a figure on the platform
to need of much comment. It is
probable that no greater platform
orator is living and a rare treat is in
store for those wise enough to plan
to hear him.
Further, particulars, circulars etc.
may be procured from the General
Secretary, Room 273, Main Build
ing.
Mrs. Adams’ Death
Lee Adams, 'O6, is mourning the
loss of his mother who died here
last Monday evening. Adams has
the sympathy of every member of
his class and other of his acquain
tances in the college. The Senior
Class met Tuesday morning and had
a committee appointed to draw up
appropriate resolutions.
State College, Pa., Oct. 3, ’O5.
Whereas, God in his infinite wis
dom has seen fit to remove the
mother of our esteemed friend and
classmate, Lee Adams, we, the class
of 1906 though bowing to the in
finite wisdom of the Almighty, do
hereby,
Resolve, That by the death of
his mother he has suffered an irre
parable lost
Resolved That the class of 1906
deeply sypathize' with him in this
bereavement
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to him and that
they be published in the college pa
per.
Mass Meeting,
The second of the series of mass
meeings previous to the Indian game
gome wos held in the Old Chapel
last Friday evening. Songs aud
yells for the Indian game were prac-,
ticed. • Manager Bair exhibited a
plan of the Harrisburg athletic field
and a position in the bleach
ers was decided upon. Other
matters of a business nature were
brought up but no satisfactory con
clusions were reached. The question
of another coach was also brought
up and it was decided to endeavor
to close a contract with Fennell, who
so well handled last years squad.
