Penn State has for
some time enjoyed a
Government system of student
government, and the
system which has been developed
here, seems to have reached a high
degree of efficiency. Naturally all
college men here are familiar with
the student council, which is the

"representative assembly" of the
classes, and with the student
board, which may be considered as
the council, created_ to , make for
convenience in handling affairs.
These two bodies, although with
periodically changing membership,
have served the student body well
for years in "shaping legislation",
that is bringing matters to the stu
dent body for consideration.
The latest change in our govern
ment has been the creation of the
new student tribunal, composed of
three seniors, four ' juniors and five
sophomores, elected by the council
and directly responsible to that
body. There seems to be a more
or less general misunderstanding of
the functions of this tribunal. It
has been called a "hazing commit
tee", but this term seems hardly an
accurate one. For while the tri-
bunal does look into cases concern
ing the infringement of college cus-
torn, and may prescribe penalties,
it by no means advocates or takes
part in hazing. It is still the duty
of sophomores to watch for offend-
ers, and to report serious infringe-
The fact that the upper classes
are represented makes the tribunal
one of sufficient power and dignity
to deal adequately with violations
of college rules. Other important
functions are the compiling and
publishing of a list of college cus-
toms, and the interpretation of
these customs whenever any ques-
tions arise. It was in accordance
with the latter power that the tri-
bunal has interpreted resolutions,
passed by the student council on
May 26, 1913, to mean that except
on poster night, all forms of indis
criminate hazing have been abolish
ed.
The intense inl
Remember terest shown to
the Sidelines ward this year's
football season is
evidenced by the crowd of students
who attend practice each afternoon.
Such interest, however, may be
come a detriment rather than an en
couragement when a hundred or so
of interested spectators crowd in so
close to a scrimmage as to interfere
with the plays or even to hinder
the coaches. It would seem that
the sidelines provide an excellent
viewpoint. Every year it seems
necessary to make this ancient re
minder.

COLLEGE FINANCES
A Re•statement of Federal and
State Appropriations
The School of Agriculture re
ceives from the state for mainte
nance the sum of $275,000, all
other schools receive $530,000.
For the erection, equipment and en
largement of buildings, $375,000
has been appropriated, and for the
construction of a sewage disposal
plant, $20,000 is at hand. More
over, $20,000 will be used in furth
ering agricultural extension, and
$6,000 in making special agricultur
al experiments on tobacco growing.
The entire sum received from the
commonwealth amounts to $1,226,-
000, to be used for two years.
The federal government provides
the college . with $llO,OOO each
year, divided as follows by the
Morrill and Nelson Act, $50,000;
by the Hatch Act, $15,000; by the
Adams Act, $15,000; and from in
terest on bonds, $30,000. The
final item of the college income is
$lO2O, interest on bonds from sale
of land. Thus the college will
have at its disposal during the next
two years almost a million and a
half.
New English Course
The Department of English wish
es to call the attention of students
to a new elective course scheduled
as "Public Speaking 15", which
was added to their list too late to
be included in this year's college
bulletin. The course is known as
"Dramatic Expression" and will be
devoted to the practical side of the
drama, very little theory being
studied. Several plays will be read
and rehearsed during the term, and,
if possible, one will be produced at
the end of the semester. The hours
for Public Speaking 'l5 will be
Monday and 'lhursday evenings at
7:00 p. m., in room 286 Main—the
four hours practicum counting as
two credit hours. The course
will be given by Mr. Arthur Deer
ing.

Y. M. C. A. RECEPTION
Annual Event Held on Campus Sat
urday Evening.
The annual reception to new men
was held last Saturday evening
under the auspices of the Y. M. CI
A. The event took place on the
veranda of the Woman's Building
and on the lawn in front, which was
temporarily lighted with electricity.
Though the weather was very
threatening. the attendance was
large, about fifteen hundred being
present, and an enjoyable evening
was spent by all.
Musical selections were supplied
by the glee club and band, and
"Dick" Harlow 'l2 made an appro
priate speech. Old and new men
seemed to be making the most of
the occasion in becoming acquaint
ed, and congeniality prevailed.
President Sparks, Dean Holmes
and many faculty members were
present to extend a hearty welcome
to new students.
Dr. Holmes' Trip
Dean Holmes and family took an
interesting European trip last year,
