March 6, Wednesday, West minster Col:ege, at State College. The management expects to hay . e Allegheny College here either the first or last week of February. This is surely a hard schedule and it is hoped that the Faculty will ap prove it as it is. Since but two men of last year's team are in College at present, it will take some strenuous effort on the part of Captain Waha, 'O9 to make a successful sea son. It is not too early to urge every man in college,who has ever played basket ball before, to try for the team and develop a winning Varsity. The Collegian suggests that a coach Col STATE COLLEGE, PA., NOVEMBER 15, 1906 be employed this year, some gradu ate as "Billy" Dunn, 'O5, Foltz, 'O6, Yeckley, 'O6. Heretofore, the men have had to depend upon the advice and inspiration of their captain alone. But the large amount of new ma terial this year will give Captain Waha more than he can well attend to. The Recent Mass Meeting A number of matters of general interest were acted upon at a meet ing of the student body after chapel on Monday. A peculiar interest was attached to this meeting because of the fact that it was the first one to be held under the auspices of the stu dent members of the council of ad ministration. It was voted to cease cutting campus, not only during the winter, but until such a time in the spring as is thought necessary to prevent any possibility of wearing paths. The destruction o`_ any college property of value dui ilg celebrations was for bidden. The presidents of the three upper classes were constituted a board of appeal, to decide what is valuable property, in cases of dis pute. The matter of paying college fees by semesters, instead of by terms, as is now the custom, occasioned considerable discussion, but action was postponed pending further in vestigation. For convenience of the athletic teams, it was decided that during practice and scheduled games the student body should keep back on the track during football contests and on the outside of the track dur ing other events. In this connec tion, the matter of new bleachers was again brought up, but no action was taken. legian. Brass Cannon on the Campus The suggestion made by "A Reader" in last week's issue has been followed up by the Collegian and has already assumed a definite form. At the present time a mem ber of the Senior class is designing a base upon which to mount the cannon. As soon as completed these plans will be turned over to Captain Hay for his approval, and will then be given to the Board of Trustees. General Beaver has heartily ap proved the idea and Captain Hay thinks that the expense of con struction will be assumed by the Col lege if the plans are satisfactory. It has been suggested that the cannon be placed. one on each side of the flower bed, in front of the Main building. In such a position they will add to the beauty of the camp us of which we are so proud. -•: : Award of Scholarships. The Faculty has recently made' the following awards: The John W.
