ALBRIGHT DEFEATED
State Defeats Albright By Narrow
Margin in Opening Basketball
Struggle.
The Albright college five gave an
excellent exhibition of good basket
ball playing last Friday night in the
college gymnasium, holding the
Penn State team to a 32-31 score.
The game was played under the
new rules and was fast and rough.
Several new mi n were seen in the
State hne-up. Both Rogers who was
substituted for Green early in the
game and Wright who took Shore's
place at forward in the second half,
were drawn from the class teams
and played their first varsity game
at that time. Wilson, a freshman who
entered here from Bellefonte Acad
emy, was a star and completely out
played his man. Captain Shore al
so proved to be a valuable man in
his position. The Meyerstown
quintet played a strong offensive
game, the forwards, Heindel and
Benfer peifoiming especially well
for the visitors.
The Penn State team left Tuesday
night fci New York City where it
plays Manhattan College today and
St. John's University tomorrow.
On Saturday the team will meet
West Point at West Point, New
York.

Cross Country Run
Last Saturday afternoon at two
thirty, the annual cross country run
was held. The course, about five
miles long, was in poor condition on
account of the mud, and, in fact, it
i wined hard during the whole race
Following are the men finishing in
the first ten places; Horst 'l4, won
the race with 3 minutes handicap,
his handicap time being 36 min. 45
sec.; Savery 'l4, second, one minute
handicap, time 37 minutes; Harrison
'l3, third, one minute handicap,
time 37 minutes 7 seconds, then fol
lowed in older Lewis 'l4, Hess 'l4,
Henning 'l5, Shetrone 'l4, Nichol
son special, Anderson 'l5; and Gar
rett 'l5.
Savery 'l4, won the time prize, his
actual time being 33 minutes, with
Harrison 'l3 a close seconds finish
ng in 33 minutes 7 seconds. Shet
ram 'l4 made the actual time of 33
minutes 51 seconds. Entwistle 'l5,
starting at scratch, ran the race in 35
minutes 24 seconds. Savery's time
is about three minutes faster than
that made over the same course last
year.

Not in the Y. M. C. A. Course
For the benefit of many who
seem to take the concert to be giv
en by the Dunbars next Saturday
evening as one of the Y. M. C. A.
course entertainments, it is desired
to correct this false impression in
that the Dunbars are coming under
the auspices of the Pharsonians.
Those who heard these famous
Bell Ringers last year will remember
the excellent program rendered by
them. This year the Dunbars are
presenting a similar one, but with
new and different numbers. It
would be useless to go into detail
on the merits of these popular en
tertainers in a locality where they
have already established so high a
reputation. Nevertheless it may be
said that 'io one who has heard
them before will regret doing so
again. For the benefit of those
who have not had the pleasure, ask
any one who has, and then follow
the crowd. The sale of seats will
begin Thursday evening at seven
o'clock at the Business Office.
Tickets will also be on sale at the
same place on Friday evening and
at the Auditorium before the
performance. The prices have
been made as low as possible in
order that they will be within every
one's means, viz 25, 35, and 50
cents.
A Red Head Club
A redhead club is to be formed
among the redhead students of
Syracuse University.
There is a national fraternity of
redheads, called Lamba Tau Rho,
which already has several chapters
among the bigger universities and
which the local club expects to pe
tition for a chapter.
Lamba Tau Rho was formed at
Young Man
This advertizement is for your reading
The years will soon go by and you will be in your middle life. Be
wise ! Secure a policy now so that when you reach middle life it
will mature and you will not be counted among those who look
back 20 years expressing regret for their failure to secure a good
life insurance policy when young men. The Company I represent
invests its money at attractive interest rates in the West—pays big
dividends to its policy holder and is "backed up" by the state of
lowa.
:PENN STATEUCOLLECIAN
Ohio State last spring and now has
chapters at Michigan, Columbia,
Cornell, Chicago and Pennsylvania.
In the last chapter to be formed at
Columbia, two big league ball play
ers were made honorary members,
Murray of the Giants, and Dooin of
the Phillies.
There will be two qualifications
for membership. The first and
foremost will of course, be that of
possessing a carrot top. No mat
ter what shade of red, crimson or
pink that it may be, it will pass.
And, according to this qualification,
there are about 35 who are in line
for membership in this unique or
ganization.
The second specification that has
been suggested b/ the ones who
are organizing the club is that the
"reds" who become members must
have done something for their Uni
versity.
An enthusiastic promoter of this
new club said .that red heads have
been prominent in the history of the
world. "There was Nero, who
fiddled while Rome burned; William
Rufus, England's second Norman
king; King John of Magna Charta
fame; Richard the Lion Hearted;
Frederick Barbarossa, the great
German ruler; Emperor Charlmagne;
Attilla, the Hun who sacked Rome;
King David, and Judas Iscariot."
College Exhibits Win Prizes
At the International Live Stock
show held last week at Chicago, the
-there -Berkshire—bar:ow:-

they were entered. In the class of
individuals under six months of
age—second and fourth places; in
pen lots, under six months—second
place; in open class, under twrlve

In consideration of the fact that

United States and Canada were on

the entries from this college made
an excellent showing.
