interesting to many,are surely not to
be taken as a standard of Penn
State. This latter problem was
decisively settled in one phase at
least when the Student Council last
fall passed rules concerning the
conduct as students in the football
bleachers. It is to be hoped that
we shall need no more laws to corn-

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 15, 1913
The Director of the
Concerning the Physical Depart-
representative of
that department, is working in be
half of the students to eliminate all
unnecessary carelessness in the col-
lege gymnasium. Stealing or care-
lessness in the Armory may be
classified into four distinct groups.
The first group includes those men
who will deliberately steal money
from a student's pocket, the second
group takes into aceount all men
who will take street wearing apparel
or gymnasium clothes from his fel
low student, while the third grotip
is made up of those men, who be
cause they were so unfortunate as
to lose something of their own will
appropriate the property of some
one else and to the fourth group be
long those men who will wear their
lockermate's clothes, with or with
out his consent.
The first two groups are the most
important and every person knows
the punishment and humiliation a
student would undergo if found to
be a member of either of these
classes. No sensible person would
dare a member of the third group.
The last class is the most common
and has the largest membership.
A student may have permission
to wear his lockermate's suit but
others not knowing this may draw
false conclusions
A new Physical Department rule
will go into effect February 3, 1913
requiring that every man shall have
his name on his suit in plain view
during his appearance on the gym-
nasium floor. It is also recom
mended that all special uniforms,
such as those worn by members of
varsity and class teams shall be
properly marked.
Everybody appreciated the ac
complishments that have been
made this year by the Physical
Department. In the early fall 100
new lockers were placed in the
locker room. New showers were
recently installed and the water
system, furnishing both hot and
cold water, completed. One hun
dred and eighty additional lockers
have been ordered and should be
ready for use at the opening of the
second semester. This will bring
the total number of lockers up to
530 accommodating 1060 men. The
whole gymnasium movement is im
proving. Help it along.
At some of our
To recent Armory soda
the Curious functions, lather awk
ward situations have
been noticeable because of the
actions of the crowd of spectators
present. There should be no
objection to onlookers at dances
and the like, but a large number of
men playing the "angry Roman
mob" act in a crowded balcony
can scarcely be regarded with inter
est and approval by visitors at the
college.
Moreover, some of the remarks
made on these occasions, while of a
particularly critical nature very
In the personality
Mr. Frank F. of Mr. Higgins this
Higgins. college had the op-
portunity of becom
ing acquainted with a man, who
having sacrificed a comfortable
position as a parish minister, took
upon himself virtually the vocation
of a lumber-jack, and this way
tried to benefit the men of the
backwoods.
In his description Mr. Higgins
told of his experience with men of
prejudice and of crude intellect,
who had been defrauded so often
by tradesmen, fake-beggars, and
swindlers, that they had little faith
left in humanity as a whole. His
experience in the snows and frigid
atmosphere of Wisconsin and Min
nesota, clearly bring out the consti
tution, energy and will power
necessary to follow up such a call-
Mr. Higgins told of the trials he
had undergone in older to secure
the confidence of these cosmopoli
tan lumber-jacks, and he laid stress
upon the fact that these men may
be moulded like clay, in certain
respects, if only the proper tactics
are made use of.
Mr, Higgins' lectures were en
lightening, and in reality accentu
ated the fact, that our domestic
missions are more important than
our foreign ones.
Due to the fact
Student that so many of the
Council Acts fellows using the
Gym have been miss
ing so many articles of gym clothing,
the following action was taken by
the Student Council at a meeting of
Jan. 13, 1913: That the Student
council endorses the action taken
by the Physical Dept., in requiring
that all students must have their
names conspicuously marked on
their gym apparel when appearing
on the gym floor for gym work;and
further,that if any student is caught
wearing another's gym clothing he
he shall be dealt with by the Stud
ent Council, providing he fails to
give a satisfactory explanation.

Course in Commerce and Finance
A new course, to be called the
course in Commerce and Finance.
will be offered by the School of
Liberal Arts to students entering
the junior and senior classes in
1914-15.
This course is designed especially
for students who intend to enter
business vocations as distinguished
from the learned professions, agri
culture and engineering, and also
for those who are preparing to en
ter the Consular Service. The
chief aim of the course will be to
give the student a broad and thor
ough knowledge of the environment
and general conditions under which
modern business is conducted,
the origin and development of those
conditions 343z1 - the - iulations of
pi ivate business to politics and
government.
With these ends in view, the
course has been so arranged as to
include in the junior year comes in
Economics, Accountancy, English
and American Economic History,
Statistics, Transportation Problems,
Money and Banking, Trade and
Resources of Europe and the Far
East, Insurance, Advertising and
Salesmanship. The senior year in
cludes courses in Credit and For
eign Exchange, Labor Problems,
Trade and Resources of the United
States and South America, Indus
trial Management, International
Law, Commercial French or Span
ish, Corporations, Public Finance,
Foreign Relations, Municipal Gov
ernment, Political Parties, Colonies
and Dependencies and Business
Law. Provision is also made for
electives.
The new course should appeal
strongly to a large class of students
whose needs are not met directly
by any of the older courses offered
by the College and who are there
fore disposed to seek preparation
for a business career at some other
institution. Although the new
course will appear in the next cata
logue, you can help in bringing it to
the attention of prospective stu
dents by sending this issue of ''The
Collegian" as a "marked copy" to
some friend at home.
An Appeal from E. C. Mercer.
Mr. E. C. Mercer, through the Y.
M. C. A., makes a strong appeal to
men of Penn State for clothing
suitable to be sent to the Jerry-Mc-
Auley Water Street Mission, New
York. The appeal is being made
to all College men.
