The general conduct of
Public Penn State men while in
Opinion Pittsburg during the
Thanksgiving trip has
been highly commended by several
interested spectators who were in a
position to clearly observe the
actions of the students. The
gameness of the team in a losing
game, the sportsmanlike accept
ance of defeat, and the gentlemanly
behavior of the men during their
stay in the city, all called forth ad
miration.
The observers considered these
existing conditions nothing short of
marvelous, as they realized the
temptations which assail anyone
who takes such a trip, away from
work with his fellows, and as they
were aware of the fact that, among
the crowd, there were half a hun
dred men who for weeks had been
in the strictest training, who were
worn with work, and who had corn
pleted a rather unsuccessful season
with a particularly aggravating
defeat—a condition which, one
must admit, hardly tends toward
producing any feeling of heavenly
peace.
The press and the public in gen
eral are so fond of sensationalism
with regard to college student af
fairs, and are so continually railing
against the apparently innate evil
of the college man, accepting his
good points in an entirely matter
of-fact way, that the Collegian can
not resist emphasizing the fact that
there are, nevertheless, some peo
ple who have actually evolved the
idea that perhaps the college man,
or at least, the Perin State man, is
not such a hopelessly depraved
wretch, after all.
The fact that ad
Short Course vertising pays is
Students clearly shown in the
methods employed
by the successful business man.
We, as a college, have in our win-
ter course students, a means where
by our prowess as an institution
particularly along agricultural lines,
cam be distributed throughout the
state.to a greater extent than is gen
erally recognized.
These students of agriculture
represent, in the vast majority of
cases, sons of the most progressive
farmers of the state,and the type
with which we are endeavoring to
get into closer touch, namely, the
practical man.
The impressions received during
the twelve weeks that these men
are here serve as the source from
which information will be drawn
regarding efficiency, practicability
and the character in general of our
life here.
The gradual increase in numbers
year by year of the winter course
students would indicate that satis
factory results have been obtained
in the main, but there Still remains
that tendency, a complement of by
gone hazing, to impose,to a more or
less degree, on these men.
This is generally done in the
spirit of fun and taken in the same
manner but it has in it an element
of danger. No stranger likes to be
made the butt of a joke in the
host's house. Practical jokes
among ourselves may take on a
different light when applied to
persons unaccustomed to college
life, and the impressions here
received regarding us may off-set
largely the endeavor that our col
lege puts forth to make this course
a beneficial one,
Canton College Representative
Next Sunday, instead of the reg
ular Y. M. C. A. meeting, the Audi
torium will be the scene of an illus
trated lecture on "China and the
Canton Christian College", by Prof.
H. B. Graybill, who served as act
ing president of the college a year
ago, and permanently as principal
of the middle, or preparatory
school.
Penn State men are particularly
interested in this Canton College
because they are maintaining a
representative there, G. W. Groff
'O7, who has been the leading spirit
in the establishment, through the
"Penn State Mission to China", of a
practical and efficient department
of horticulture at the college.
Prof. Graybill is a graduate of
Washington and Jefferson College.
He is spending a year in this coun
try, after which he will return to
his duties in China. He is visiting
Penn State particularly because he
is anxious to see the college which
graduated the well known "Daddy
Groff". Prof. Graybill will speak
for about thirty minutes on various
Chinese topics, especially those
which concern the Christian Col
lege. His lantern pictures are in
tensely interesting and make up a
collection, to see which is a privi
lege. The auditorium should be
packed on Sunday evening.
Junior Banquet
The junior class banquet was
held this year at the Fort Pitt
Hotel, Pittsburgh, on Thanksgiving
evening at eleven o'clock. Over 60
members of the class of 1915 gath
ered round the festive board and
partook of the bounteous repast
spread before them. The excite
ment of the day and the general
bustle of the dinner parties around
distracted the attention of those
present and not until Toastmaster
Harvey Hill called for the first
toast did those present realize the
purpose of the affair.
Toasts were responded to by S.
P. Jones on "Our Loyalty to Penn
State", Hannum on "We Expect",
Lamb on "What Athletics Mean to
Penn State", Harbach on "The
Decadence of the Roughneck", H.
