Owing to the fact that there wore several other college activities on the same even ing, only a few attended the concert but it was evident that the true lovers of music of this community were collected there since they had sacrificed all other pleasures for this one. The orchestra lost several good men by graduation last year but with the old men and a goodly number of new mer, Conductor Snavely was able to bring it up to its old stand ard —even ‘■urpass it and truly ex cellent music was produced. Great credit is, therefore, due leader Snav ely for once more presenting an orchestra which is capable of such pleasing entertainment as was en joyed last Saturday evening and with it many thanks to him and the individual members of the organiza tion for the efforts which they have exerted. The program was of a vaiied natuie consisting of both classical and popular music and apparently it -was.pleasing to all since the num bers oi u oth kinds of music were applauded with like v gor. A high ly entei tabling feature of the con cert was a splendidly rendered vio lin solo by Mr.Snavely, followed by Traumerei as an encore which he played in a most pleasing style. Dvorak’s Humoresque and The American Patrol were so ll executed and pleased the patrons so much that the orchestra was obliged to repeat both nuinbeis. The other selections were also well received. This was the first concert of the yeai by any of the home musical organizations and,as was said before, was very poorly attended. Even when considering the several other affairs of interest scheduled for the same evening, the number was en tirely too small. We must do bet ter in the support of our musical clubs and should at least show our appreciation of their labors by an attendance at their perfotmances. The Yale Meet. The Yale Wrestling Contest at State College February 23 will prob ably be the greatest night for Penn State Wrestling that the institution has ever seen. A large number of visitors and alumni are expected foi that occasion and the manage ment has arranged special plans whereby eveiy courtesy may be shown to the alumni who return to the meet. The number of reserved seats is limited. Heretofoie no provision was made for sophomores and freshmen, but owing to ad ditional bleacher space, it will be possible to sell a few tickets to un derclassmen. Admission to the Armory will be by ticket only. C. MacC. Breitinger, ’ll, has left the Allis Chalmers company, to ac cept an offer from the A. O. Smith company, of Milwaukee.

Pont Nemours Powder company three mahogany display cases, con taining a complete exhibit of the blasting powders, and dynamites which this company makes for use in mining and cjuarryirg. It may be noted howevti that the explo sive propeity of these specimens is .’iot to be as they arc what | are known as dummy powders. I [■ It may be ot intciest to note that | the annual calendar sent to the coal, ! trade by the Wetson Dosdon & Co. 1 Inc., miners, and shippers of both. | anthracite and bituminous coais, l j Bethlehem, Pa., bears a large size ; picture of the Anthracite Mine | Model in our Mining Museum. It ' also contains a description of the model and states that “this model together with similar exhibits makes one of the finest collections of its kind in the United States”. This calendar makes a very hands; me appearance and should do good service for the company putting it 1 out, and also for the School of Mines. An Eligibility Rule, Beginning next year men entering. Penn State from other colleges will be debarred from participating in our varsity athletics until they have been here for one calendar year. There has been a great deal of con troversy among the colleges having thisiuhrgas to what constitutes a college. The requirements and standings of many of the so-called colleges and universities are so low that their graduates cannot pass State’s entrance rcquiiements. A discussion of this point at the N. C. 1 A. A. meeting held recently in New York City led practically all of the delegates to adopt rulings similar to ! those maintained at Columbia Uni-, versitv. At- present, a man entei - ing Columbia fiom another institu tion must, accoiding to their ruling, l make at least sophomore standing i before he is consideied as coming' from another college or university. 1916 Class Football Team.
