THURSDAY, NOV. 24, 1910 AN IMPORT- _ Aside from the ANT PHASE purely religious sig- IN THANKS- nificance of Thanks- GIVING giving day, there are many things bearing directly on the college life of the students that should be thought of and appre ciated on this occasion. The general prosperity of the col lege under the present administra tion undoubtedly surpasses any pre vious condition and as we look over the numerous improvements that have been made in and about the campus since this time a year ago, we have,much to be thankful for. Our athletic teams have gained additional honors in new territories and ' .have established enviable records which stand out prominent ly in c intercollegiate athletic history. The standard of the college has not been authoritively raised but it is raising itself and we can have no spore Convincing proof that this in stitution is rapidly forging itself into the front rank of American colleges. In the many festivities -of the day:then, is it not fitting that we should find some time to offer abundant• thanks for the good spirt which the Pennsylvania State col lege is endowed with? ASSISTANT The Collegian takes BUSINESS pleasure in introduc- MANAGERS ing to its subscribers, H. S., Cocklin, 'l2 and Theo. Len chner, 'l2 who have been elected to the positions of assistant managers of the paper. 'Both men have proven their sterling qualities in their trial work and we feel that they will be a great additional source of strength to the paper.

Cross Country Run. In preparation for the cross coun try run to be held next week, large numbers of men can be seen every afternoon working out on the cam pus and the surrounding country. From the interest taken in the meet by upperclassmen and the newly organized specials, it looks as though the run this year would be a decided' success. The freshmen, however, are not coming out as they should. There is no reason for this backwardness. Go to it, 1914. Lack of expefience - is not an excuse, since the. run is a handicap one. Director Lewis reminds, us that last year one man with a two and a half minute handicap finished first, and another, with the same handicap, last Get in between, somewhere. The course this year has been changed to add approximately two miles to that of last year, which' was 3.3 miles. Starting at the Athletic store the route goes up the road past the Library , to the road above the woods; "east : on this" road to a point where a south line will run to the east of the farm barn and the orchard; down this line to College avenue; west toward the Athletic store again, and then •on last year's course. This route will give the spectators an opportunity to see the race - at the start, at the end of two miles, and at the finish: The Di rector is willing to help all candi dates to the best of his powers, but the main thing to do is to get out and train Run by yourself or with a bunch who will - not kill you off in the beginning, and stay in the game. The run is going to to be a great one! Senior Electrical Trip The Senior Electricals have definitely decided to take the Eastern trip this year and will leave State College on Dec. 9th. The route will include Philadelphia, Camden, Newark, and New York, the latter city being the point at wh.i.h the men- will disband on Dec 16.
