The Last With this issue of the
Issue. "Collegian" the seniors
on the present editorial staff step
from office and the other men on
the staff enter upon theh : greater
duties. One junior and two sopho
mores will soon be elected to the
board and sh9rtly after the Easter
vacation has passed there will be a
call for freshman candidates. The
present staff has'tried, and we hope!
has succeded, in keeping the "Col
',',,legian" at the same high standard
which has characterized its exist
ence for, a number of years past.
We have attempted several innova
tions, which, although they may
have been criticised at first, have
proved their feasibility. The first
of these was to change the form of
the college paper, from that resem
bling a magazine or .booklet to that
'of an up-to-date college weekly
publication, which compares very
favorably with other college Publi-
Cations. At the same time the
amount of reading
,matter was in
creased by one-half. This necessi
tated more work and greater ex
pense,,but it was essential that the
' college paper keep pace with the
growth of the college along' other
lines, and it was with this end in
view that the change was made.
Of course we have been criticised I
and rightly so, but the troubles of
editors are great, especially those of
the editors of a college paper,
We have done our best to please all
and if there is one whom we have
offended either by omission, corn-
Missi:in or otherwise we humbly
ask his pardon. We , have made
mistakes, but as a result of our
little experience we are able to
doubly appreciate the fact that per-
feet mortals are nonentities. In
short, we have enjoyed our work
and we hope that you have enjoy
ed the results of our labors
Froth, Froth, Before our Easter
vacation begins the
next issue of the college humorous
publication will appear. Although
the sale of "Froth" heretofore has
been fair, there is still a great num
ber of fellows who do not purchase
it. The expense of publishing
'Froth" is very great, and inasmuch
as the standard of the paper is ex
ceptionally high and the pike very
cheap as compared with'other, col
lege humorous editions, it is exceed-
ingly urgent that every man, vho
can possibly aftoid it, purchase the
next edition which' is better than
eve' and which will appear very
shortly. Let us do out best, fellows,
to make the publication of "Froth"
a permanent feature of our college
activities
Intercollegiate Wrestling
Athletic Director Golden, upon
returning, from the Intercollegiate
Wrestling , Association meeting held
at Princeton, reports faiorably on
our chances of being admitted to
that organization. The committee
representing the I. W. A. consisted
of the four captains and the four
managers of Colunibia, Cornell,
Pennsylvania and Princeton: As
was expected several arguments
were advanced against, Penn State.
In the first place the question of pro
fessionalism in baseball came up.
"Pop" Golden mentioned that this
same argument came up last year
when we applied for admission to
the I. C. A. A. A. A. He said that
Penn State was fair and square in the
matter, that they did their work in
the open while several of the other
colleges were dishonest in the mat
ter. The next question had to
deal with the location of Penn State.
Our representative had little dffi
culty 'in convincing the I. C. W.
committee that it is as easy for
Princeton, Penn, and Columbia to
reach State College as it is for them
to reach Ithaca.
Then the standing of the men in
college was mentioned. The mem
bers of the committee were sur
prised to hear that no Penn State
man is allowed to participate in any
intercollegiate athletic event unless
he has the equivalent of a freshman
standing and further that he 'is re
quired to have a five per cent. high
er grade than a student who is not
directly connected with athletics.
They were also informed that every
man before taking a trip must pre
sent a slip to each of his instructors
and have it signed above. or below
grades as the case "may be. If be
low grade the student is barred from
the trip.
Next came the matter of expense.
The committee was assured that
Penn State would pay enough money
to defray the actual expense of any
team, coming here. The fifth and
final argument against' admitting
us was 'that the association
should confine themselves to the
members now in on account of the
time element, as they were unable
to finish this year's intercollegiate
meet in one evening. However a
certain member of the committee
said it was time that they mak6 this
a real intercollegiate association and
that they should not confine it to a
select few.
After all of the above arguments
had been thoroughly discussed, a
Columbia man made a motion that
the Pennsylvania State College be
admitted, into the Intercollegiate
Wrestling Association. Every man
present was strongly in favor of our
admission, but the Penn and Cornell
men had come with instructions to
vote against'us and could, therefore,
make no deoisive vote in our favor
until they saw their advisors.
Stewart, Pennsylvania's captain and
Norton, Columbia's manager,
brought out a very strong point in
favor of State when they mentioned
that the courtesy shown them while
at State College was better than they
had received at any other college.
Shortly before the meeting ad
journed Director Golden asked, "Is
it the concensus of opinion that Penn
State will be accepted as a member of
this association?" In answer to this
question "Pop" received an affirma
tive reply from every man, so it is
very probable that Penn State will
be admitted into the I. W. A. this
coming week.
Dur:tig the Easter vacation, the
planting of catalpa and locust on
the new farm will be thoroly pruned,
and incidentally a test will be made
pruning sheari,. and other in
struments used in pruning forest
u ees.
