FROTH IN ln the past few
BAD PBF- years there has . been
.DICAMENT, a marked advance
ment in the college publications and
in order to further this movement,
it will require strenuous endeavors
on the part of the student body.
Some of these literary works are
as yet but in their infancy and it is
necessary that undivided attention
be given to them if they are to be
brought successfully to any degree
of excellence. At the present time
Froth, one of the most popular
literary enterprises ever undertaken
in this ' institution, is in imminent
danger of not having sufficient
literary men to continue the paper
next year.
This paper has proved its value
to such an extent that is scarcely
conceivable that the student body
will remain idle and to see it be
come, extinct, when the needed as
sistance is so near at hand.• -Without
doubt the cartoonists on the Froth
Board 'at the present time represent
the heft talent in the institution
and these men in their ambition to
promote the standard of the paper
should uotbe compelled to suffer the
probability of• its discontinuance at
the' close of this college year.
Froth needs literary men from the
class of 1912 and the situation has
'now Approached a`point where there
must be some response. Juniors,
the life of this project, now so well
under way, is in your hands and it
rests with you entirely, to have or
not to have college humor in print
next year. Make up your minds to
try to aid the movement and seek
an interview with J. M. Spangler,
who will give you all particulars re
garding the literary - work on the
Froth board.
CARE OF At the engineering
CLASS school meeting last
ROOMS w e ek, the, matter of
keeping the club room and class
rooms was briefly discussed. A
word here may be somewhat more
far-reaching as it will come before
those who were not present at ‘ that
meeting.
Keep in mind at all times that our
first interest is centered in the college
and therefore in its equipment. If
the authorities are to use the college
finance for the purpose of expan-
sion and improvement, we cannot
aaar..l to demolish piopeity , and
thus impede the work of the college
ad n'nistration along lines of ad
vancement,
Just think of this a, moment be
fore you throw that piece[of chalk,
or icily hull that erases at some un-
suspecting tai get, and then you will
be personally aiding the great move
ment to perpetually better the gen
eral condition of Penn State
DO YOU FAVOR
"PENN STATE" name of this
institution is Ile Pennsylvania State
College,,but there are other contract
tions of this name, which make the
matter somewhat confusing in the
minds of outsiders. "State" is
commonly used, but in view of the
other state institutions, this is not
sufficiently specific. "Pennsy State"
does not have the college sound to
it and is but little used. A common
sentiment seems to favor the use of
"Penn State," and it is generally be
lieved by the present student body
that this is the name by which the
athletic teams and other organiza
y
tions should be actually known.
What'do you think about it?
' THE DUNBAR&
Well Received by Large Audience
Excellence 'of Portrayal Pre
dominated Throughout the Entire
Performance.
The third of the season's Y. M.
C. A. .entertainments was given on
Saturday night by the Dunbar com
pany. From the enthusiasm man
ifested by the audience, and the
continued calls for encores, it seems
evident that the performance was
one of the most successftil we have
had. Just as in former aprearanc
es, the company executed a varied
and well balanced musical program.
Every number served to show the
versatility of the musicians, and at
the same time fitted perfectly in its
place in the .clean-cut ensemble.
Among the numbers most enjoy
ed by the audience were the en
chanting 'cello solos. by Mr. Dunbar,
particulary "Love's Old Sweet
Song"' and "My Itosary;" the "Lul
laby," sung by the quartet; the im
pressions from Grand Opera; and
Mrs. Dunbar's splendid character
singing. It is difficult however to
name any especially fine number,
for all were rendered in so excellent
a manner that the audience carried
away the general impression of a
complete and charming musical
evening. The Dunbars have as
suredly tightened their hold upon
the affections of Penn State people.
Let us hope that they may visit us
again in future seasons,
From Another Alumnus
To the Collegian:
' In last weeks issue "An Alumnus"
spoke for the western alumni and
wanted to know why° they did not
get the football scores in the west
ern Sunday papers; we eastern
alumni wish to second all that was
in last weeks letter, as but very lit
tle football news frCpm Penn State
appears in New York or Boston
papers.
Of course, all that may be chang
ed now that the College is connect
ed with the outside world by wire
less telegraphy.
On the other hand, there are
those who prefer oblivious rather
than see press accounts of Penn
State vs. High School and Normal
School football teams.
Eastern Alumnus
The New Football Manager
T. W. Orr, 'l2 was recently elect
ed manager of the varsity football
team for the season of 1911.
Throughout the past season, Mr.
Orr, acting in the capacity of assist
ant-manager has shown himself to
be a good business man and has
displayed integrity and perseverence
which highly fit him for the im
portant office for which he has
been chosen.

THE. ATHLETIC WORLD
Several Coming Events of Great In
terest to be Held in Near Future
The second annual cross country
run will be held on Saturday, and
the event promises to be a classy
one. A large field has entered the
race, and some fast time is expect
ed. This is certainly a great op
'portunity to develop our new dis
tance men. The freshmen, in par
ticular, have been responding in
great shape, and have now more
entries than 1913, who formerly led'
the list. The splendid .string of
prizes on exhibition at the Ath
letic store is an added incentive to
the men, even if the run itself were
not a facinating attraction. The
handicaps will be posted on Friday
morning.
For spectators as well as partici
pants the meet holds enthusiastic in
terest. As the course is so arranged
that the onlookers will see the race
at different stages, a crowd even
larger than that of last year will be
on hand to cheer on the runners.
The crisp, bracing weather is per
fectly suited to put the men on their
mettle„ and we shall certainly .see
one F of the classiest runs on record.
On Tuesday evening, Dec. 13, the
first gymnastic exhibition of the
year will be given in the Armory.
Director Lewis has been working
steadily with the men, and he has
arranged an interesting series of
gym stunts; including wrestling,
boxing, bag punching, club swing
ing, tumbling etc. The work begins
at 7:30, and everybody is welcome.
After the basketball game on Fri
day night there will be a prelimin
ary wrestling meet, for the new men.
Although the old men will not com
pete, there are some mighty promis
ing new candidates, and some close
matches are to be looked for.
Within the last week a large num
ber of heavyweights have come
Out, and the prospects in this class
look very bright. Among the big
boys, all weighing over 175 pounds,
are Lesh, Parig, Warner, E. P. and
0. J. Vogel,, Stitt, McVean, and Be
bout: The men in all other classes
but lighter weights are all doing
well. In the 115 and 125 pound
classes there is still a lack of good
material. It is ti ue that the classes
are represented by last year's cap
able men, but new men are needed;
especially in the 115 pound class is
this the case. Where are you,
lightweights? Come out, and get
busy! You are needed.
Engineering News.
