WEDNESDAY, OCT. 2, 1912 A Change in Commencing with the Day. this issue the “Col- legian” will be pub- lished on Wednesday morning in stead of Thursday morning. The change of one day has been made in order that the Satui day’s news of the college may reach oui alumni subscribers one day earlier than be fore. Ever since their insti- Meeting, tution by Fresidenl Sparks, the Wednesday morning mass meetings have ser\ ed a veiy important puipose. No ott er gathering has been so successful in bringing together the faculty, the classes and student oiganizaticns in lace—where discussi&as— nsy-hc held. To upperclassmen and sophomores no plea is needed for attendance at mass meeting; but to the new men, it will be well worth the time to attend all such meet- ings. It is the best opportunity that you have to become thoroughly ac quainted with all the student ac- tivities and with the undertakings of college organizations. Again, we must not forget mass meetings held in the evening. The initial one of the year was held last Friday. In some ways this was a remarkable meeting. Suiely no more inspiring talks weie ever given by our athletes and coaches than on that night. It is after such a meet ing as this that a Penn State man begins to appreciate how great are liis opportunities. The We Our “We Wonder’’ Wonders. Column has a pur- pose.

An in creasing number of students are realizing the value of this work and are giving it a prominent place on theii schedule.

Some of the arranged courses are as follows:— Scniois “Crisis of the Christ” given by Professor Willard. Sophomoies “New Studies in Acts". For upper classmen (special) “Systematic Study of the Old Testament”, given by Professor Foster. Freshmen Freshman Bible class, conducted by Mr. Buchrran.

The University of Cornell will duiing th : s year complete the con stuction of six new buildings, cost ing approximately $1,000,000. An infirmary was constructed at the cost of $120,000, which should be of especial significance and inteiest to Penn State. Columbia this year will have an enrollment of students which will surpass any previous one in the an nals of the institution, It is be lieved that the number of men in the univeisity will come close to 10,000. The average standing of the fra ternity and club men in the Univer sity of California has shown a maiked improvement during the last spring teim. The baseball championship won by Princeton last year, will be cele brated by a huge bon-fiie on the campus. J. B.

The push-ball contest, held on Old Beaver Field last Satuiday, resulted in a twelve-one victory for the class of 1915. Dick Harlow T 2 acted as lefeiee, and the judges were Vety T 3, Craig 'l4, and “Bill” Hollen back. The fiist ten minute peiiod began at 1.30 p. m., and the two classes, when lined up for the signal, seem ed to be almost equal in numbers, PENNT ?ATE COLLEGIAN 'l' I'ji e ]HL i grin.

The freshmen were decidedly lacking in aggressiveness, and though ti.gy had been instructed befofie the scrap and had definitej.afctics to fol low, they seemed bewildered, for the most part, and failed to check the determined rushes of the “Sophs.”. The latter made their greatest gains by swift end runs, but made shower progress when encountering the massed center of their opponents. After ten min utes of scrapping, the score stood 7-0. ; Duiing th.|: remaining two periods the freshmen profited somewhat fiom their ejtperience, holding their opponants to five scores, and at limes afforec.l a stubborn lesistance! At the end !of the second period they hold .he sophs almost on their goal lin|e, and just before the final signal at the end of the thiid period, they ran the ball into sopho more tenitoi /, just in time to make their only seoie. Though beaten by the over whelming score of 12-1, the class ofl 1916 has scrapping material and will doubtless make good in the f| Two Friends of Penn State Coming. .
