SUBSCRIPTION.
It. SO per year or $1.25 if paid within 30 days after
Sate of subscription.
THURSDAY, OCT. 12, 1911
Payment of In order to take ad-
Subscriptions vantage of the sub-
scription rate of
$1.25, it will be necessary for all men
to have their Collegian subscription
paid for by Oct. 31. The business
staff is covering the town and cam
pus as rapidly as possible, and sub-
scriptions may be paid to them, or
sent in through the mail to the
Business Manager. As has been
the custom in former years, we are
sending copies to all old subscrib
ers and to all new men, and will
continue to do so unless notified to
discontinue.
It seems unnecessary, in a college
renowned for its spirit, and its sturdy
support of undergraduate projects,
to make a plea for the support of
the college paper. There are
always a few men, however,
who fail in their obligation to the
paper, and it seems useless to make
an appeal to them. We hope that
their number will be exceedingly
small this year.
Football If we are justified in
Trips prophesying future scores
• from those already made
by our team, it looks decidedly as
though this was Penn State's year.
And whether as successful as it now
appears, or whether more unfortun
ate, there is not the slighest doubt
that the men of the college are in
back o' their team to stay. This
spirit has been shown in other years
in the attendance at games away
from home as well as at those on
Beaver Field. With a larger col
lege than ever, we should send
record-breaking crowds to games
with Pennsylvania and Pittsburg.
The gain in not only to those who
go, but also to the college; and if
it is within the realms of possibility,
every man in college should plan to
take at least one of these two trips
and give our great team the en-
couragement in deserves
Earl E. Hewitt
As an example of true loyalty to
his Alma Mater, Penn State may
well be proud of the fact that Earl
E. Hewitt 'O3 has returned to hell ,
our staff of coaches turn out a team
that will complete one of the best
football schedules in the history of
our college. Mr. Hewitt entered
Penn State in the fall of '99. Be
sides being one of the best captains
and quarterbacks ever turned out of
here, he was interested in all college
activities. A few of the honors
that were given to this alumnus
while sllll in college are,—member
1903 La Vie Board: varsity baseball
1,2, 3,4; varsity football 1,2, 3,4;
class football 1,2; chairman of
executive committee 1; toast master
Freshman banquet; Pharsonians 3,
and track team 2, 3.
Captain Hewitt in his Junior year
led Penn State to victory over
Western University of Pennsylvania
Susquehanna, Annapolis, Lehigh
and Dickinson in football. As a
Icaotain and general, few football
captains have equaled his reputa
ition, and as an all around athlete it
can truly be said that State never
turned out a better man.
After leaving •college Mr. Hewitt
became engaged is his profession,
Mining Engineering. He was su
perintendent of the Rochester and
Pittsburg Coal & Coke company at
Punxsutawney for several years.
The plant turned out 3000 tons of
coal per day and made 1000 tons of
coke al , o. On the first of Sep
tember, 1911, Mr. Hewitt accepted
the position as Manager of the
Alabama Farm Lands company
with offices in Pittsburg. Mr.
Hewitt is married and has three
sons.
Lecture on Walt Whitman
To the coming lecture by Mr.
Sadakichi Hartmann, on Walt
Whitman:—
If I do object to advertisements
it is on the grounds that good,
splended words are abused....an.l
all advertisements do not sound to
me sincere, and worthy to be trust
ed ...I hope the reader will not
doubt my sincerity at any rate....
It is just a few words:—
The lecture which will be given
on November 11th in the Auditorium
( admission free )by Mr. Sadakichi
Hartmann(who is a poet, art critic
and lecturer) on the subject of Walt
Whitman is to my mind an epoch
making lecture.... there was never
another miter any where near like
W.,lt Whitman, and there in no
other interperter of Whitman to be
found anywhere equal to Mr. S.
Hartmann.
Walt Whitman did not write ter
rible things like Edgar Allen Poe;
consequently there will be no dang
er of any lady taking "a fit" as I
had witnessed when Mr. Sadakichi
1 Hartmann gave a reading from Poe,
No, I say, there will be no danger in
that; for the works of Walt Whit
' mann are sane and sound.
But go to the Auditorium on Sat
urday evening Nov. 11th; admission
is free, as I said it....
To enjoy more thoroly the lecture,
re:4d something, (anything) from
"Leaves of Grass" or at least take a
look in Professor Pattee's book on
A,nerican Literature and find out
what Professor Pattee has to say
about Walt Whitmann. There are
just two to three pages about him,
but it will pay you to read them.

Answering Letter
To Editor Penn State Collegian,
Dear Sir:—Mr. W. F. Ruder, of
Schenectady, N. Y., has contributed
a letter published in your issue of
October 5 which is so typical of
many other complaints which have
been made by our alumni from time
to time that I desire to state a few
facts in regard to State College
news appearing regularly in the city
dailies.
First let me say that Penn State
collegeihas a Press Club composed of
enthusiastic, hard working members
who are doing everything in their
power to place the news of the col
lege before the general public.
Further, the writer has for the past
fou'r years been the local represent
ative of the Associated Press. It
may be most positively stated that
the absence of State College news
from the columns of the city p p
ers has not resulted from these I ap
ers n:lt having received the r ws
but because their editors have not

In reply to Mr. Ruder's query,
"Can't you do something for us ?",
I would answer most positively
"No". However I can say with the
same assurance that the alumni can
do much for themselves. Once lec
the editor of any paper know that a
number of his readers are interested
in Penn State and news of our col
lege will find ample space in his
colums. If you do not find the
news you are looking for in your
newspaper, write the editor and tell
him so. Many thousands of per
sons are deeply interested in all that
transpires at the Pennsylvania State
College and if even a few would
make their wants known to publish
ers of the papers they read instead
of sending their complaints to the
Collegian, our institution would soon
. be accorded the attention it
deserves.
Very sincerely yours,
Chas. L. Kinsloe.
Valuable Addition to Equipment.
The Penn27lvania Railroad will
send to the college within a short
time one of their dynamometer cars,
to be used for tests with the college
locomotive and for other investiga
tion work. Although this car is too
small for their heavier locomotives,
being limited to 28,000 pounds
draw bar pull, the dynamometer
itself is one of the best in the coun
try. Over $30,000 has been spent
in the equipment of the car during
the years since it has been in serv-
It has been recently overhauled
and repaired. The car is primarily
for use in determining the hauling
capacity of a locomotive, and furth
er for tests relating to the resistance
of grades, curves, and wind. The
School of Engineering is fortunate
in securing this valuable addition to
the equipment for the work in Rail
road Mechanical Engineering. Prof.
A. J. Wood, associate professor
of railroad engineering was largely
instrumental in procuring this
ap
paratus.
Mr. F. E. Webner of New York
City lectured on Monday, October
2nd, to the Senior class in In
dustrial Engineering on the subjects
of proper distribution of expenses
and the determination of manufac
turing cost. He then spoke briefly
to the Seniors and Juniors in
Mechanical Engineering, taking as
his topic the necessity of correct
cost accounting.
Mr. G. D. Barbey has gone to
Williamsport for six months to take
up the work in Engineering Ex
tension. He reports that the at
tendance at the first meeting was
about fifty.
The following new men have been
elected to membership into Alpha
Delta Sigma, a local fraternity
founded last February:—H. W.
Bloomfield, 1914; J. E. Dunbar, J.
0. Spangler, I. J. Crocker, and W.
W. Alexander, 1915.
