Last Thursday saw'
The Close of the close of the very
the Season, best football season
that Penn State has
ever .experienced. Our institution
has created an' enviable reputation
throughout the entire country and
one that every Penn State alumnus
and undergraduate is proud of. To
the high place that the Blue and
White athletics now holds too much
credit can not be given to the stu
dent management and Graduate
Manager, the most excellent .coach
ing system, and lastly to the type
of men who have battled on the
gridiron this year and during pre
vious years for their revered Alma
Mater.
The closing game brought out
distinctly several highly commend
able features in addition to the
brilliant victory of a still more,
brilliant season. The rooters of the
University of Pittsburgh showed
wonderful spirit in backing their
team, when towards the latter part
of the contest, little chance of vic-
tory was apparent. We congratulate!
them on their loyalty. Pittsburgh
papers paid no small tribute to our
team as a whole, also to individual
stars on the eleven. The “Dis
patch” refers to Coach Hollenback’s
machine as best in the country.
Another noticeable feature of the
last trip of the season was the good
conduct of our student body at
Pittsburgh and on the special trains
going and returning from there.
With the exception of a very few
cases, every man present remem-
bered his mission of placing his
Alma Mater in its true light before
the eyes of Pittsburghers. The. .re-
turn trip Sunday night was made
under the most favorable conditions
that ever characterized a truly hap-
py and victorious Penn State stu-
dent body returning after a football
As a whole, the season has been
one of 4 greatest importance to us,
All factors have been incorporated
into making the 1912 football record'
of Penn State one that will long
be remembered by every lover of
the Blue and White.
Last year it
Smoking in was decided to
Mass Meeting, abglish all smolf-
ing during mass
meetings. The reason for this
action was because of the injurious
effect upon our athletes -of-tobacco
smoke. Recently several fellows
have been guilty of this offense,'
and their act of disrespect to some
of the best athletes that ever repre
sented Penn State has been particu
larly noticeable. The abolishment
of smoking in the Armory during
wrestling meets, as was done last
year, will also mean much to the
success of our mat team of 1913.
Long usage prevails
College and in the custpm of giv-
Class Yells. i n g class yells at all
interclass athletic con
tests. Probably due to the misun
derstanding of class cheer leaders
the college yells have been given on
several occasions this fall with the
numerals of one class or another at
the end. Since the few good yells
that we have are for the purpose of
varsity contests, classes should'
avoid the use of the same at inter
class contests.
Prospective Glee Club Trips.
The most extensive trip ever
made by a college glee c}ub is being
planned for Penn State’s organiza
tion, and if arrangements cap be
made, .thirty-five men will travel to
San Francisco as guests of the Santa
Fe Railway, giving concerts at the
company’s Y. M. C. A.’s along the
main Kne. Glee clubs of two hun
dred and fifty colleges .have .applied,
to the Santa Fe for this trip, and of.
all these the choice lies between,
Penn State and Fairmont College,,
of Witchita, Kansas. If secured,
the trip, which will be made at
Christmas time, will be a wonderful
achievement for the college, yet one,
fully deserved because of the ex-,
cellent showing made this year by,
our musical organizations under
Prof. Robinson.
Besides this, Philadelphia alumni'
are negotiating with a Philadelphia
church to give a spring concert in
that city. The club will surely
make at least one of these trips. .
BY THE WAY.
The entering class at Amherst
this year was the tallest in the his
tory of the college, averaging 5 feet
8.7 inches. The average weight of'
the new men was found to be 136
pounds. In spite of this pessimists
persist in saying that the human
race is depreciating in stature.
The Indians lead all teams in
points scored. Including the game
.with Toronto, the Carlisle eleven
has rolled up 416 points. Prince
ton is exactly 100 less. Cornell has
scored only 54 points against 115.
totaled by visitors.
Recent statistics taken at Yale
show that the average freshman
spends sll4l,sophomore sll36,jun
ior $1156; and senior $1169 per
year.
The Cosmopolitan Club of Syra
cuse University, at a meeting held
last week, inaugurated plans for
building.a honse in the .vicinity.of
the .campus to cost About $18,000.,
Arthur H. Ogle, editor of the
Daily mini, the .student publications
of the University of Illinois, has
been arrested by .order of Judge
Philbrick of the Circuit Court, on
the charge of contempt of court.
Ogle has been charged with con

of the Illini warning students to be
careful what they told the grand
jury, which was investigating the

Judge Philbrick took exception
to this statement, “Students should
be on their guard before such ,a'
tribunal."
A plan for limiting the number of'
college activities in which any stu
dent may participate has been pro
posed by a special faculty commit
tee of Allegheny College. The
suggestion of such a measure was
made at the convention of .the Na
tional Association of Registrars
held last summer in Chicago and
such .a system .is already an use in a
.number of the more progressive;
,colleges and universities of the
.country.
Mr, Sterling Fowler.
Mr. Sterling Fowler, 'O3, died at
his home in Berwick, Pa., Novem
ber 18. Mr. Fowler was a former
instructor in the Mechanical Engi
neering Department, being located
here for four years. After leaving
the college Mr. Fowler’s health failed
and recently he had been .unable to
engage in active work. Mr. Fow
ler’s death takes from the list of
alumni a young man .who made an
enviable record as an instructor of
splendid ability at Penn State.
