For the first time in the history of Penn State, a freshmen track team will compete with teams oth er than those representing the three upper classes of this college. Manager Hancock of the 1915 team has scheduled a meet with the Harrisburg High School for April 3, but owing to the poor condition of the track in Harrisburg the meet will in all probability be postponed until April 10. April 27 and May 4 are two dates which will be filled, and it is very likely that Bellefonte Academy will be the freshmens’ opponents on the former date while Lock Haven Normal will probably be met on the latter date. The freshmen will also clash with the Penn State sophomores in a dual meet on New Beaver Field on Saturday, April 20. The management of the 1915 team has also signified its intention of entering the team in the general in terclass meet which will be held on New Beaver Field this June. The schedule is being so arranged as to allow the first year team to use the freshman varsity men. Student Hospital Benefit. “The Shepherd of the Hills”, interpreted by Mr. G. C. Williams, in the Auditorium, Friday March 29. 8 o’clock. Admission 25 cts. No reserved seats. This entertain ment promises to be equal to any of those offered by the Y, M.. C. A. lecture course, and the proceeds, it is to be remembered, are to be given to the Student Hospital Fund. Mr. Williams has cut his price 50 per cent, for this cause. The Woman’s Club, through its Hospital Committee, under whose auspices, this entertainment is given, is vigorously pushing the movement for a student hospital and dispensary. Plans for a build ing are in preparation. Fellows, rally around this cause Friday even ing and give it another good boost. Mr. Gray, the Mandolin and Glee Clubs are preparing an interesting musical program for this occasion. Cordoba and Sevilla, In illustrated lectures possibly the illustrations are of more conse quence than • the discourse but on Friday night Mr. A. S. Riggs evi denced especial proficiency in both factors. His collection of pictures contains probably some of the most superb that have been shown here. Photographs of the old Moorish temples, the Mosks, and of the beautifully intricate Mosaic-work were shown, and they were describ ed in a very interesting and capable manner. Mr. Riggs in describing Cordoba and Sevilla, paid his greatest atten tion to the works of arts in these cities, and by his treatment, especially, of the phase of oil-paint ings, we may recognize him as an art critic. At the meeting of the Motive Power Club tomorrow evening in Room 202 Eng. Bl’d, Mr. Krumrine will show the model of the locomo tive in operation under steam and will give experience of six years on the road. Mr. J. A. Kinney speaks on “Draft Gears”, giving results of recent important tests at the West inghouse Air Brake Works. Hie Royal Union Mutual of Des Moines, lowa Has never lost a dollar either in principal or interest. , Its policies are protected by a deposit with the state. They have made the best settlements ever made by any insur- ance company. They have the lowest participating premiums. They earn more money on their invested funds than any other company doing business in Pennsylvania College Boys, Attention! Young men often say to me, “What good will a life insurance policy do me if I die ?”. Bless your heart, tell me of anything that will do you any good if you die. But it will do others good. It will help to reimburse that mother or father, if you die, who scratched and saved to put you through college. And if you live and keep up the pay ments to maturity, I can tell you of policies that will not only protect those you love or to whom you may be indebted for funds to complete your course, but will pay you back personally at maturity all you put in or more. Do you know that after you have paid one full annual prem ium in my company, should you become totally and permanently dis abled and unable to earn money, your policy will become a fully paid policy for the face of it ? The latest wrinkle in life insurance. Let me tell you about this —also many other things that will surely interest you—and make you money. New York. Life Ins. Co. Mr. Ellis Lectures. Probably no man is more fasci nating tef be listened to, than a broad minded man. A man be comes broad minded by diverse ex periences-in other words by travel. On Saturday night, those attending the lecture on “The Americanization of the World” had the privilege to hear a man who has probably trav elled, and seen as much as any other great tourist to-day. In discussing some of his ex periences in the far East, Mr. Ellis especially touched upon the re markable strides that American in fluence was making in these va rious semi-civilized localities- Those who had an opportunity to interview Mr Ellis during his sojourn at State College, certainly listened to a man whose knowledge of world customs is surprising, and whose keen understanding of con ditions in the East is amazing. Hats Off to the Junior Civils, With perfect alignment, angles checking naught-naught, with the strains of “Hula, Hula” resounding through the atmosphere, the 1913 Civil Dance, arranged by the wide awake committee —Mr. G. Transit, Mr. Y. Level, Mr. S. Chain, Mr. Bob Plumb and Miss Stakes, was held last Friday night in the new ball room of the Nittany Inn. The affair was the first section dance that has been held in State College and stands bounds in its praise for the-loyal Junior Civils. Average Age of Seniors. The average age of the members of the Senior Class, at the time of their graduation, will be 23.5 years. The average age of last year’s class was 23.3. The average age of the class of 1910 was 23.4. ■PENN STATE| [COLLEGIAN JAMES I. THOMPSON General Agent JESSIE D. WHITE, 124 W. College, Ave. I ■ Now-a-days I its COES & YOUNG’S SHOES G. F.
