STATE COLLEGE, PA„ FEBRUARY 10, 1915
A MODEL CAMPAIGN,
SAYS DR. MOTT
Great Christian Leader Expressed
Himself as Well Satisfied With
Work at Penn State,
SOCIAL SERVICE EMPHASIZED
The religious campaign conduct
ed during the past week by the
Y. M. C. A., has come to a close
and, in the opinion of the leaders,
it was one of the most successful
affairs of its kind ever held in the
eastern colleges. Dr. Mott, when
interviewed by a Collegian reporter,
commented most favorably on the
spirit manifested by the students
toward the campaign.
“In my opinion” he said, “the
State College student body has
shown a heart interest in the work
that is truly remarkable. It is a
tremendous thing to have the stu
dent body of a big college cooper
ate so zealously in Christian work”.
Among other impressions that
the distinguished leader of the
Y. M. C. A. had of Penn State was
the open-mindedness of the stu
dents as regards religious affairs.
There was no cynical indifference
and everyone seemed imbued with
the idea of learning as much as
possible from the leaders here.
Dr. Mott’s last point was that the
campaign brought out the idea of
social service. There w,as manifest
ed no selfishness, and individualism
was lost in ihe general idea of
social service.

W. AND J. TEAM
DEFEATED AGAIN
Close Guarding and Fast Floor
Work Enable Varsity to Take
Commanding Lead in First Half.
Score 32-19.
Last Monday night before a slim
audience in the Armory Captain
Park’s team demonstrated them
selves to be of championship cali
ber when they easily defeated the
W. and J. team. Just why so few
support basketball is .difficult to
discover. The team this year has
lost but one game and at the pres
ent stage appear to be sure of win
ning the balance of games sched
uled. Thus far it is the one State
team which is fighting for a cham
pionship. It is one of State’s best
earns. However, unless the stu
dent body support the team the
balance of the season it will be im
possible to arrange such a schedule
next year. The next game will be
played Friday afternoon with Bos
ton Tech.
The game was closely played
after the first half but not until
then. Peelor scored the first points
with a field goal but the score was
soon tied when Park shot two foul
goals. Another field goal gave the
lead to W. and J. A State field
goal took the lead away from W.
and J. for the rest of the game. In
rapid succession Walton, Wilson,
Jester, and Blaklees added field
goals by eluding the W. and J.
guards until the comfortable lead
of 12 to 5 had been reached. Four
more field goals and a foul were

FAMOUS PENN STATE QUARTET
PRICE FIVE CENTS
FIRST MUSICAL CLUB
CONCERT OF YEAR
Combined Musical Clubs in an En.
tirely New Program Next Week.
Recent Trip a Big Success. New
Trips Planned. Band to Give
Concert. Charitable Work,
The first concert by the combin
ed Glee and Mandolin clubs will be
given in the Auditorium on Friday
evening, February 19. The great
success of the club on its recent
trip, which included concerts at
Erie, Carry and Jamestown, shows
that it has lost none of its ability to
provide the best of glee club music.
At every concert of the trip the
press comments were highly com
plimentary. In view of these facts,
together with the fact that the pro
gram is to be made up of new num
bers, the student body should give
its undivided support to an organ
ization which is bringing Penn State
a very large amount of free ad-
vertising.
At present a concert has been ar
ranged to be given in Danville,
March 5. This week a c ncert will
be given in Bellefonte, th. proceeds
of which will be devoted to the
Bellefonte hospital fund. A trip to
Chicago is also under consideration
which will include concerts at Lock
Haven, Scottdale and Chicago.
During the first week in May, the
club will sing in the Wanamaker
store and on the same trip dates
may be arranged at York, Harris
burg and Lower Merion.
The band is fast taking a con
spicuous nlpoe _biggpr-
Penn State organizations and the
concert of February 21 in the Audi
torium should be better than any
previous one.
Mr. Crandell will take the
Panama Canal trip in place of Mr.
Robinson. The glee club program
