THURSDAY, MARCH 9, 1911 Needs for The columns of Alumni Interest the Penn State Collegian have become noticeably bare of alumni new. and it is the wish of the editoral staff to remedy the deficiency in some adequate manner. Manifestly, the only means of acc i c e rlishing this, is through d the ect communication of the graduates themselves.-and without their support, conditions cannot be satisfactorily bettered. Some difficulty has been encoun ered in the past, owing to' the in ability of the staff to decipher illeg ible writing, but this occurs very seldom and the main factor in the argument is that the alumni have not sent in such facts concerning 'themselves as should be published. It is true that the new Alumni Quar terly very thoroughly narrates all alumni news, but as that publication is confined exclusively to the men out' of College, the present students do not share its benefits. Their only source of information is the College paper, and general ,interest in the activities of the alumni is as strong in the student body as it is among the alumni themselves. We ask you, therefore, to aid us in the movement to secure alumni news and mail your cqmmuncations direct to the State Collegian. It will find its way to print in the fol lowing issue and you will be giving the paper something of which it is in gteat need. The Senior The Senior Cotillion Cotillion .last week was attended so enthusiastically, that it has un doubtedly established itself as a permanent custom for the senior class. The lack of strong upper class customs at Penn State makes it necessary to inaugurate new fea tures from time to time that will be of lasting duration. The present senior class is deserving of warm praise for the institution of this par ticularly agreeable form of a new cus tom and without 'doubt it will be suc cessfully carried on in future years by each of the coming senior classes. Penn State at The successful wrest- Cornell ling team will meet Cornell on Friday night at Ithaca in the last meet of the season, The Blue and White team has done such creditable work this season that little fear is felt for their welfare in Cor- rellian tertitory. Undoubtedly the Penn State team is made up of championship mat erial as is clearly shown by the ac- CesSive victories" over Lehigh, Yale and Columbia, and if Cornell he Added to this list, our record will bt one to be enNiecl by,every college it the country Unfortunately, Penn sylvania could not be scheduled this year but the management fully expects to have the Red and Blnt on the 1912 card. , The Pharsonian Trip The Pharsonians begin their annual spring tour on March 13. opening the week's performances with a show at Wilson College, Chambersburg From there the college minstrels will give preformances on sucessive evenings at the following towns:- March 14, Wilks-Barre; Isth,Blooms burg; 16th, Danville; and the final one will take place at Sunbury on the 17th. From the character of the show and the success which attended it initial performance, the Pharsonian: should play to a large audience at each of ti e above places. There has been a constant desire to put a good, clean, original, up' to date Minstrel Show on the road, and it is certain that that standard has been attained. Nelson, Ludwick, Guthrie, and Leyden will contuini to hold down their positions as end men, who,with those giving the specialties, and the men in the chorus; will cause merriment for the most pessimistics. The entire show will be staged the same as when produced on Wash ington's Birthday with the probable, addition of some local , hits on the town in which the preform ance is given. The college orchestra will acompany the troupe on tis trip, so that under the guid ance of Director Couch, every detail will run smoothly. It is hoped by the managei*fit that this will be the most successful season the or ganization has ever had. Gaskell Lectures to Foresters. Mr. Alfred E. Gaskell, State For ester of New Jersey,' gave a most interesting talk on Thursday evening in the assembly room of the Agri cultural Building on the subject "How a State is Protecting Her For ests From Fire." Mr. Gaskell de scribed the legislation which has been passed to prevent fires, , the organization of the state forest service, and the means of fire fighting used by the state, the railroads, and by private property holders, His illustrations were from photographs showing the conditions as they exist in New Jersey compared with similar conditions' in European countries. Mr. Gaskell is largely responsible for the building up of the system which gives New Jersey the best protection of any state in the country; and his description 'of the workings of the system was instruct ive and entertaining. He also addressed the upper class Foresters on Friday morning on the opportu nities that are open in their kind of work. " His entire visit was a source of pleasure to all who heard him talk at the various places. Alumni Notes. Wm. Guise, 'OB, of Spokane Wash., visited the college from Feb 23rd to the 27th.
