Smoking l n direct opposition to
in Armory, the request of the
management of the
various teams which use the
Armory, that no smoking be done
while such teams are in the build-
ing, on numerous occasions within
the past few weeks smoking has
been noticed. This is particularly
true in varsity and class basketball
games, and was also in evidence at
the final trials for the wrestling
team. Although the question
seemed to be settled definitely last
year, some of us seem to have for-
gotten the ruling.
Any one who has played basket-
ball or who has wrestled on the
Armory floor will testify to the dif
—fisulty—a£-getSssg- ptesty-of fiesL
air in the room, and anything that
we can do to improve conditions
should be done. While some of
the men have smoked between
halves in the basketball games,
even this should be eliminated.
The smoke is partially retained in
the room until the half commences,
and quickly affects the wind of the
men on the floor. Let us give the
teams a square deal, men, and cease
all smoking in the Armory.
Y. M. C. A. Entertainment.
The last of the series of enter
tainments, presented by the Young
Men’s Christian Association of the
college, was given in the Auditor
ium Saturday evening before a good
sized audience. The English Opera
Singers made an ideal conclusion,
or even climax, to an excellent and
remarkably well balanced course.
Mr. Walter Flora is the possessor
of a beautiful tenor voice of great
range, and his singing was a fea
ture of the program. Miss Char
lotte Simpson is a soprano singer of
great ability, while Miss Marie
Bolen’s clear contralto completely
captivated her hearers, especially in
the Gypsy scene. Mr. Harry C.
Lombard possesses a rich baritone
voice, and sings with much taste
and style. The playing of Miss
Orline Ochs, pianist, was very en
joyable. The voices of the com
pany, in solos or when blended in
duet or quartette, were of a quality
not often heard—well cultivated,
and of good range.
Part one of the program opened
with Fanning’s “Song of the Vik
ing," by the company, followed by
a baritone solo, De Koven’s "Song
of the Turn-Key,” by Mr. Lombard.
Miss Simpson and Mr. Flora sang
“Behold the Hill-tops All Aglow,”
after which “Now the Night in
Starlight Splendor," from Lucia,
was sung by the Company. Mr.
Flora’s beautiful solo, “Mona,” and
a well played piano solo, “Rigo
letto,” by Miss Ochs, completed
the first part of the program.
Part two consisted of a gypsy
scene, in costume, introducing
Gypsy songs from “The Bohemian
Girl,” "II Trovatore," and other
operas. In part three the “Hiring
Fair,” and the “Farm House
Scene," from “Martha” were sung
by the company.
Parts two and three were charm
ing features of the program, the
costumes adding greatly to the ef
fect of the whole. The artistic
ability and personality of each
member of the company produced
a musical attraction of sterling
quality.
Students Should do More Technical
Reading.
The School of Engineering
through a committee especially ap
pointed by Dean Jackson has done
considerable work the past few
weeks in bettering the facilities of
the Reading Room in the Engineer
ing Building. The room has been
rearranged, racks have been install
ed. To help the students in select
ing articles of interest, the instruc
tors in the Engineering School will
post a list about twice a month
which shall be selected from all of
the current magazines and engineer
ing papers.
About seventy-five technical
magazines are now being regularly
received at the School Library and
an effort has been made in the
selection of these to accommodate
the wants of the departments and
students. The committee would
be glad to hear of any good papers
or magazines not yet being receiv
ed in the Reading Room.
It is desired here to call the at
tention of the students to the
facilities offered and to urge a wid
er use of the literature on various
tecEriicaT "subjects. The” Librarian
in charge will assist students in
finding the different articles posted,
and the rules adopted are not in
tended to restrict a broad use of
these magazines.
Resolutions on the Death of Dr. Gill.
In the death of Dr. Benjamin
Gill the Literary Club has lost one
who is not only its oldest charter
member, but one who was also in a
peculiar way its father and its lead
ing spirit. His genuine culture,
which was deep and broad, his
genial spirit, his gift of comrade
ship, his enthusiastic love of all
that is best in literature and art, his
fearless spirit which always con
demned snobbery and bigotry and
narrowness of view, and his stead
fast faith in man and in God, have
become not only a part of the
priceless memories of the Club, but
they have enwoven themselves into
its very fabric. He will be to it
not only a precious memory and
tradition, but, what is far more, one
who will always stand as its ideal of
culture and comradeship and fear
lessness for truth and right. From
his urn he will still rule us.
We therefore while we express
our sympathy with his bereaved
friends, would register also our
solemn sense of gratitude for his life
which we were permitted so long to
share and that has left so deep an
impress not only upon our club but
also upon our college and our com
munity.

The Band Concert.
The old saying runs —music hath
its charm —of course that means
real music, and well may the pro
duction of Penn State’s Cadet Band
be classed as such. Any person,
that attended the concert last Sun
day evening whose feelings were
not aroused, and who was not in
spired to some degree at least, must
have been impregnable. The entire
program was rendered in an excel
lent manner, and martial music,
opera selections, and overtures were
played with equal proficiency. The
second selection was especially
gratifying, the style, phraseology,
and the complete mastery of the
diverse intricacies, being beyond
criticism, which attested to previous
hard work on part of the band.
Great credit is due to the leader,
and to his musicians, for the
pleasure which they gave to the
audience, which is in hopes of hear
ing another band concert in the
near future.
The Program was as follows: —
March —Washington Grays, Gra
fulla; Overture —Orphensinder Un
terweld, Offenbach; Selection —II
Trovatore, Verdi; (a) Patrol Gaurd
Mount, Eilenberg; (b) Sextette —
Lucia di Lammermoor, Donnzetti;
American Fantasia, Tobani; Selec
tion —Faust, Gounod; March —Dun-
lap Commandery.Hall.
