Ever since its
The New erection, Old Main
Terrace has been minus
some fitting ap
proach or steps at any of the en
trances, and until lately such a feat
ure has been noticeably lacking.
The new stone terrace at the west
entrance to Old Main has been
completed recently, and it serves,
admirably, the two-fold purpose of
providing a much needed entrance
and of beautifying the building. A
new concrete walk leading from the
steps to the main walk contributes
to the beauty of the portion of the
campus surrounding it as well as
to the terrace.
During the process of construc
tion of the terrace, some discussion
concerning the necessity of such
an addition in a time of so many
needs, resulted. However, since its
completion, there seems to be no
doubt of the urgent need of such an
improvement, and of the advisabili
ty of making the same.
The cost of building was some
what increased, and completion was
delayed by the breaking of a col
lege custom —that of the confining
of class numerals to the Armory
roof. Someone inscribed class nu
merals upon the newly lain cement,
and thus necessitated the expendi
ture of extra labor and expense to
remove them. In the future, for
the sake of keeping college customs
and of lessening improvement ex
pense, such acts should be abolish
ed.
Because of the
The Contest fact of the interest
shown in the cou
pon contest of the last two weeks,
and since there still remains over a
week before the close of the same,
the "Collegian” contains a third
series this week. Remember the
two students, who secure the high
est number of votes get their trans
portation and expenses to the game
with the University of Pittsburgh.
The contest closes next Monday.

Sunday Evening and the student
Concerts body of Penn
State will be giv
en what promises to be a concert of
unusual quality next Sunday even
ing. Concerts given in churches or
held in auditoriums at other places
on Sunday are not necessarily ap
proved of by the audience with out
bursts of applause. Furthermore,
in previous years this was not the
custom in our own magnificent
Auditorium. An earnest appeal is
made that in the future, and especi
ally next Sunday evening, we re
frain from this act.
Penn State has
For Us been unduly criticiz
to Remember ed,especially this fall
for her standard of
athletics. From our opponents
many knocks have been forthcom
ing. The majority of these causes
of misrepresentation have been
true where the writer of such artic
les knew absolutely nothing of the
true, conditions, which now exist at
our college. Nevertheless, whether
true or not, they did our standing
no special good.
In a college community, as in any
other, a small story will quickly
spread and and just as quickly mul
tiply in its charge. We have
learned a lesson by realizing how
hard it is to wear the wrong shoe.
Should we not apply this lesson?
Let the consensus of opinion of the
student body increase in fairness as
as has our athletics. No story
about another institution, however
probable, should be circulated and
believed until its truth is establish
ed.
The game with the University of
Pittsburgh is just a week away.
Stories have frequently come to us
of the misuse of Forbes Field pre
vious to games on it. These are
continually told without the author
ity of oftr Graduate Manager- and
the Alumni Advisory Committee.
Forbes Field, being new and having
a poor system of drainage, has
been very hard to drain. The con
dition is now being looked after by
the Pittsburgh Board of Control and
prominent alumni of that institution,
who are making every effort to put
Pitt athletics on a high plane.
Those new in control of our ath
letics at Penn State have confidence
that these men will succeed and
that athletic relations between the
two institutions will be on a high
standard. Let us, as a student
body, therefore put forth every ef
fort in the future to be fair minded
in connection with what we may
hear said of others.
The Student Coun-
The Student cil has taken another
Council step in regulation of
student matters by
adopting a motion that in future
students who do not attend games
on the trips, shall go to classes.
This action will do away with hard
feeling that exists sometimes be
tween fellows who do take trips and
those who are less fortunate and
who are not excused from classes
as are the former.
Henceforth classes will not have
the power to prohibit men from at
tending classes at the time of athle
tic trips or banquets.

rassing position. However, from
the attitude that was taken by them
and by the efforts made to show
their true spirit, even though it was
in direct opposition to that of their
coach, the Ohio State student body
is to be congratulated by us. For
them, too, our student body ex
tends the sincere desire that the
action of one man for personal in

Ohio State may be quickly forgot
ten by friends- and alumni of that
institution.
After the football game at Col
umbus, a committee consisting of
E. H. Payne, of New York, Presi
dent of the Ohio State University
Athletic Association; George W.
Rightmire, Graduate Manager of
Athletics; Professor Tuttle, repre
senting the Faculty; and N. J. Stef
fin, of the student body, called up
on President Sparks at his hotel to
present an apology for the action of
a freshman and some town boys on
burning the Penn State colors. It
had long been the custom to allow
these boys to tear the colors from
the posts, but never before had
they been burned. The committee
expressed its profound regret and
promised to take action against
the offenders.
The committee then went to the
Union Station and presented the
apology to Captain Mauthe, Coach
Hollenback, and others of the team.
Upon the matter being presented to
the General Faculty of The Penn
sylvania State College at its meet
ing on Monday evening, a commit
tee was appointed to acknowledge
the receipt of the apology. The
action of the Ohio State coach
in withdrawing the team was not
touched upon, since that was an
official action resting with the ath
letic management of the University.
