Wednesday, December 17, 1913
The following ex-
Yellow tract is reprinted from
Journalism the "Valley Virginian"
and is a striking ex
ample of yellow-journalism and
narrow-minded policy on the part
of the Southern paper:—
"It will be observed in another
column that the young Virginian
who carved up only eleven Yankees
at Gettysburg on the occasion of
the recent "reunion of the Blue and
the Gray," has been acquitted of
any crime and after the trial was
quite the hero of the occasion, be
ing congratulated by both sides for
the verdict.'
We consider this distinctly a case
of history repeating itself. Eleven
to one was about the ratio of the
opposing hordes in almost every en
gagement during the late misunder
standing in favor of the Yankees.
And at the close of every set to
eleven to one was generally the
result of the casualties, in favor of
the "Rebs." Besides, something
must be alloived for heredity in the
case of this young man. It is not
drawing too much upon the impel
ling force of antecedents to con
clude that when he found himself
in the midst of what appeared to
him as opposing forces the old im
pulses to carve his way out, as his
daddies did in 61-65 leaped to life
in his bosom and he, without un-
necessary delay, it seems, or much
compunction either proceded to let
blood, and that in no prurient
stream,
To tell the truth, when we first
heard of this "reunion" we expect
ed something of the sort would
happen. And we knew beforehand
who would do the carving and who
furnish the carcasses."
It is indeed deplorable that an
American newspaper should again
endeavor to cultivate a spirit of
antagonism, which should have
been suppressed, and which in most
instances has died out long ago.
It is also sad that the actions of
some insane Southerner, who was
pardoned by the Northern courts
only in consideration of his affilia-
tion with a "gray veteran", should
be justified and condoned by the
"Valley Virginian".
It is the duty of every American
to foster a spirit of brotherhood
and love between the North and
the South, and policies, as
evidenced by the above extract,
should be severely denounced by
public opinion.
The Holiday season
Our Duty will soon be here, bring
ing with it the opportun
ity for every undergraduate to per
form a service of greatest value to
his Alma Mater, a chance for every
one to do something which is really
worth while, that of interesting
those men who are preparing to
enter college next fall in the
splendid advantages which our col
lege has to offer them. Many of
us are unable to bring the name of
Penn State before the public by
deeds of athletic prowess or bril
liant scholarship, but we shall be
able to achieve equally as much if
we will but use our influence to in
terest that type of man in whom
we can, with perfect confidence,
invest the future development of
this institution. While our hearts
respond to the influence of the
Christmas season, let us remember
our college and be prompted to
perform this slight service in its
behalf.
It is not often that
An Unusual anyone is compelled
Occurrence to remind Penn State
students of the ne
cessity of full attendance at special
college mass meetings. However,
a reminder to this effect would not
be inopportune at this time. The
Old Chapel showed an appalling
number of empty seats last Friday
night when nominations were
received for the office of assistant
football manager. This fact may
have been due to the fact that the
meeting was not very extensively
advertised. At any rate, it was
fortunate that the only business to
come up, namely, the nomination,
did not necessarily require a very
great attendance. It it to be hoped
that a greater interest will be taken
in the ensuing election, and that
every man will exercise his right
to vote.
Owing to the begin-
The Next ning of Christmas re-
Issue cess next Friday, to-
day's issue of the Col
legian will be the last for the yea:
1913. The first issue of 1914 will
appear on January 14, the second
Wednesday after the close of vaca
tion.
There seems to be a
Immunity general misunderstand
ing as to the "immunity
clause" in the regulations adopted
by the student council, providing
for the new student tribunal.
Among the various provisions is
one which forbids any student to
grant "immunity" to a member of a
class below him—that is, no up
perclass man can authorize a lower
class man to break college custom.
The opinion is quite prevalent
that this clause was intended by the
framers of the tribunal rules to be
taken its broadest sense, so that,
for example, no junior would be
able to keep a freshmen fromassist-
