WEDNESDAY, NOV. 13, 1912
Since the student
Pennsylvania body has found a
Day Next few minutes to dis-
cuss other things
than the recent wonderful victory
over Pennsylvania, all eyes are now
being gradually turned toward
Pennsylvania Day, November 22.
Pennsylvania Day has become a
notable event in the calendar of
Penn State. A fact that will be
even eclipsed this year because of
the number of prominent officials
of our state and the many other
distinguished visitors that will be
here.
We, the student body, are in a
position to aid our Alma Mater in
two ways. From now until our
next holiday, every effort can be
made to help getting our grounds
and campus in condition, paths
across the campus can for once be
abandoned, and every effort made
in preparation for the parade and
toward entertaining our guests.
The second way in which our efforts
will tell, is to show the very bright
est side of Penn State after the
guests arrive. The coming parade
will be a novel event and deserves
the support of all, since it is a stu
dent proposition. Then the very
best impression that the Governor
of Pennsylvania can get of our true
spirit is to see the Auditorium
crowded to the doors on the morn
ing of the twentyfifth. Do we
realize that Penn State has done a
wonderful lot for each one of us ?
If a few do not realize it now, let
us take the views of our alumni.
We owe it to our Alma Mater to
make a good showing this fall and
particularly at the celebration of
Pennsylvania Day.
The Penn State Col-
Two New legian announces with
Managers, pleasure the addition
of W. H. Savery 'l4
and E. B. Moyer T 4 to the business
staff of the paper.
During the past few
Student weeks the Penn State
Voting Collegian sent out a
series of letters to prom-
inent politicians and to men situat
ed in lucrative administrative posi
tions. The object of these com-
munications was to obtain numer
ous and divers opinions in regard to
allowing the college men to vote
in his respective college town,
by means of some government
regulation. The plan proposed in
the letters sent out was as follows:
To allow each college man of age
to vote in his respective college,
only for positions relative to county
offices and higher and such a vote
to be recorded in his home district
or his place of residence.
Owirig to the extreme burdens
resting upon executive men during
the present time comparatively few
satisfactory replies were received.
But as the matter has received con
siderable attention, especially in
Progressive Circles, it looks as
though this question were going to
be an issue in the near future. If
the matter is carefully thought over
and weighed, it seems no more than
just that a college man living in a
city or town for a period of four
years should be allowed to vote.
Election is over with, it may
therefore not be proper to take up
any more space in such discussion,
it may nevertheless be opportune to
bring this again before the eyes of
the college man, so that we may
use his influence in the future.
William Draper Lewis, Dean of
the University of Pennsylvania Law
School, in writing to this publication
says: —“My instinct is that it should
be made as easy as possible for
every man to vote and that students
are no exception to this rule”.
It is the custom for
A Custom, all members of one
class to remain seated
after chapel exercises until the class
next higher has passed out of their
seats. Many times this year seniors
have been last to leave the Audi
torium. ” ~~

The following letter is a duplicate
of a letter that was sent to one of
the papers which so grossly mis
represented our athletic standing
following the Cornell-Penn State
game. The mentioned clipping was
reprinted in the “Collegian".
October 31, 1912.
Editor, Lynn Item,
Lynn, Mass.
Dear Sir: Attached is a clipping
which it is reported came from
your paper. If this is true, I wish
to state that the writer is either very
ignorant or a prize liar. Anyone
who has ever been at Penn State,
either for one day or four years,
could very quickly tell that this
statement is entirely devoid of
facts. The writer has been a stu
dent both at a small college, name
ly, Penn State, and also at one of
the largest Universities in the East.

If the men at the latter institution
were required to maintain as high
standards and meet as strict require
ments as the men at Penn State,
there would be very few players on
the University team.
It is indeed surprising that a pa
per of your class should permit the
publication of such absurd untruths.
I should greatly appreciate it if you
would give me the name of the
author so that I can call on him the
next time I am in that vicinity.
Very truly yours,
t. E. W. Nick, 'O7.
The above letter certainly shows
the right spirit in our fight for fair
press representation. Mr. Nick
who graduated in 1907, has since
risen to a position with the General
Electric Company, and has made
such a record for himself that he
now holds a position of large im
portance.
Rifle Club Organizes.
The first meeting of the College
Rifle Club, which holds a member
ship in the National Rifle Associa
tion, was held Tuesday, Novem
ber 5.
Over one hundred and twenty
five students were present and
signified their intentions of taking
up target shooting at the club
range. All students are eligible to
membership in the club and it is
earnestly desired that a large num
ber of the students enroll in the
roster of the club.
Guns, ammunition and targets
are furnished free of charge by the
United States Government to all
club members.
Several prize contests will be held
during the year and it is expected
that the College Club will place a
team in the Intercollegiate Match
which is held annually under the
auspices of the National Rifle Asso
ciation.
Meetings of the club will be held
once a month and all members are
requested to be on hand at all
meetings.
The following officers were elect
ed: President, Albert Lea Solleder;
Vice President, Chas. Faddis;
Secretary, R. A. Lone; Treasurer,
Walter Boyce.
The new chapel seating will go
into effect November 17.
The college has lost a valuable
set of lantern slides. The President
would appreciate any information
concerning the slides.
