COLLEGE NOTES
The recent innovation of roller
skating in the Armory has so injured
the floor that it will probably not be
permitted again.
It is reported that Mr. Parker is
about to add a course of instruction
in automobile repair work to the
curriculum of his department. He
spent some time on the “Red
Dragon" this winter and a shortage
of time cards was threatened, but it
finally received his official stamp.
Since his deout last week he has
gained considerable experience in
emergency repair work and at the
last report was still at it.
The Johnstown Tri-State team
which has been training at for
several weeks left a few days ago.
Charles M. Atherton ’92 is manager
of the team.
M. L. Roper 'O6 was a recent
visitor at the college. Mr. Roper is
employed by the Westinghouse
company at East Pittsburg.
Prof. Surface has recently been
reappointed Slate Zoologist for the
ensuing four years by Governor
Stuart.
“Price,” addressing the Sche
nectady alumni: —“Gentlemen, we
need money at State for more in
structors. We have a ‘bum’ teach
ing force.”
Ketcham ’O4, (interrupting):
“Hard luck, Dennington.”
Prof. Watson has left State for a
year and a half to manage a farm of
the Solway Process Co., at Tully,
New York.
The game scheduled for March
29th at Lynchburg. Va.. with A.
and M. College of Noith Carolinia,
was called off, as it was found im
possible for State to make the jump
from Mercersburg to the scheduled
city in time,
There’s a saying old and musty,
Yet ’ tis ever true;
Never trouble trouble
Till trouble troubles you.
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
The Hundred Yard Dash.
Give me a race that is run apace
From the start to the finish line;
A breath or two, and the race is
through,
While the seconds mark the time.
“Last call for the hundred,” the
cry comes clear,
And the runners take their place,
Each digs a hole with a spiked sole,
For the start may decide the race.
“On your marks”! —“Get set”! —a
pistol crack;
They’re off like the whistling wind;
’Tis glorious speed for the man in
the lead,
But woe to the man behind.
The cinders burn under feet that
spurn
The ground as they fall and rise;
The muscles strain; each breath is
pain;
There's a mist before the eyes.
The seconds click to the stop watch
tick
An even ten —no more;.
A ringing cheer from the crowd so
near,
For it means a perfect score.
0, honor the man, who only can
Bear off the victory;
But honor, too, those others who
Run true and faithfully..
So give us a race that is run apace
From the start to the breaking tape;
A breath or two and the race is
through
With a victory for State,
Bowling League.
The contests between the Kappa
Sigma and Phi Delta Theta teams

second annual inter-fraternity bowl
ing tournament. The highest per
centage was made by the Sigma Chi
team which also won the pennant
last year.
Intense interest and rivalry were
