    A BIG MASS MEETING
Many Important Things Brought
Up and Discussed Last Wednes
day.
The mass meeting held in the
Auditorium last Wednesday even
ing was one of great interest and
importance to students of Penn
State. The One-Year Rule was
carried, a new system for the elec
tion of student managers .or the
varsity teams was adopted, the
recommendations for minor sport
insignia were accepted and the
much talked of honor system voted
down.
The Athletic Association busi
ness was carried out first, because
the required quorum for the adop
tion of the honor system was not
present. The minutes of the pre
vious mass meeting were read and
a report of the committee on insig
nia was called for. In the report it
was recommended that the minor
sport’s letters should be given
definite dimensions, and various
suggestions as to the work required
to win them were given. As finally
amended and adopted, the require
ments are as follows: The ISt shall
be awarded to any lacrosse player
who has played a full half in three
quarters of the lacrosse games
scheduled, provided there are no
less than eight games; the aSb shall
be awarded to all men who play
three-quarters of all the regularly
scheduled soccer grmes when there
are at least six scheduled; the cSc
shall be awarded to the first five
men who finish in the intercollegi
ate cross country; and the track S
shall be awarded to those who fin
ish tenth or better; the fSb shall be
awarded to all members of the
football squad who take two trips
and who have played one quarter
in three-fourths of the regularly
scheduled games, and the letter
shall not be worn until the junior
year; the aSa shall be worn by
track men while competing in inter
collegiate meets, and shall be
awarded to men who make five
points in a regular meet.
The One-Year rule, which pio
pides that all men playing on var
sity teams shall have been enrolled
for one year in one of the four year
courses of the college, was brought
up and carried. The rule will go
into effect at the beginning of the
1915 football season.
By the time this business had
been finished, the number present
was thought sufficient to act on the
question-of the honor system. The
system as devised by the student
board was read and various amend
ments added to it, and it was decid
ed that two-thirds of the number of
men then present should be enough
to pass the system. After a great
deal of discussion, the question was
put to a vote by secret ballot, and
was lost by a vote of 767 to 428.
The Liberal Arts Society,
The meeting of the Liberal Arts
Society, to be held next Friday
evening at 7:30, in the Ladies Cot
tage, promises to be one long to be
remembered by its members. The
program which has been arranged
is one that promises an evening at
once entertaining and instructive.
The most notable feature will be
the farewell address of Dean Weber
who will leave in the course of the
next 10 days, to take up his new
duties as head of the Scranton
Schools.

known through the entire country

welcome every whore. Take a box with
you nexl time you call.

In sport the same
