A MOST SUCCESSFUL OCCASION
Pennsylvania Day was never more fittingly celebrated by a
Penn State student body and their friends than it was last Friday.
Everything moved off on scheduled time, with the precision of
clockwork, and due credit must be given the college administration
and student committees for their work in the success of the day.
Although the weather was not exactly as perfect as could be de
sired, students and visitors alike joined heartily into the duties at
hand and made of it a most memorable occasion.
On every hand words of praise for the institution and its
achieiiements came from the hundreds of visitors. Penn State's
atheltic teams were victorious; her musical organizations supplied
pleasing entertainment; her student body was at its best; her de
partmental exhibitions held the attention of hundreds of interested
spectators ; her cadets performed in a most creditable manner, and
above all, her entire student body supported every activity with a
characteristic sentiment that was most pleasing.
His Excellency, the Governor, honored us with his presence,
coming under trying circumstances, and gave us a great message.
Many men who will be prominently identified with the state's gov
ernment for the next two years, and who, as members of the State
Legislature will aid in the future work of the college, were the
honor guests of the day.
Taken all in all, the day was one of the most successful occa
sions of the kind that has ever been enjoyed at Penn State. Let us
not rest on our laurels, but continue to branch out in all other lines,
so that, as Governor Brumbaugh and other speakers said: "We can
hold up the glory of the state of Pennsylvania by giving her better
citizens."
THE PENN STATE WAR FUND
President Wilson, in a recent public speech proclaiming
Thanksgiving for the year, urged upon every American that at this
season of national thanksgiving especially, there be borne in mind
the tremendous need and suffering of the millions of people in
Europe; that, in every way possible, Americans should give toward
the amelioration of the appalling conditions now pievalent in the
war countries.
At the opening of the college year this fall the Y. M. C. A. of
North America, being the only organization permitted to enter all
prison camps in Europe, undertook to raise among the colleges and
schools of this continent a quarter million of dollars to be devoted
exclusively to Y. M. C. A. work among these 6,000,000 war prison
ers. A reciprocal basis was entered into with European govern
ments, and absolute assurance was received that all funds and
foods sent from America for this purpose would not be confiscated
by these governments.
Since the beginning of this vast collegiate campaign in our
country repoits have come from many colleges of the wonderful re
sponse made by American students in answer to this appeal, and of
numerous sacrifices made by these men and women to give toward
this work. On our own campus last week there was carried on by
the students a campaign; and this college was given the opportun
ity to do its share by contributing toward the Penn State War Fund.
It is especially significant that, in the midst of a holiday func
tion calling for an outlay of money from almost every student here,
from among the students alone there has been pledged nearly
$4,000 to this fund. There has been witnessed in our own college
the same degree of sacrificial spirit which has characterized the
work at other colleges; and Penn State—her faculty, alumni, stu
dt-nts, and visitors—has done, in the true spirit of•giving, her share.
If there be any one who doubts the absolute sincerity and
whole-souled interest that President Sparks daily puts into the ad
ministrative affairs of Penn State, let him recall the powerful words
of Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh, himself a well known educator,
in his address at the general assembly on Pennsylvania Day. The
Governor wholly recognizes our President as "the boss" here at
Penn State. Not only that, but he recognizes him as a great leader,
a real general, and a man always working for the best interests of
the students under him.

the Bellefonte Academy team 2,5 to 0.
The game, v+loeh was played on New
Beaver Field, was closer fought. than
the score would indicate, but tor all
that there was no doubt as to the su
periority of the green clink team. The
first year players outplayed their op•
ponents both on the ofien,e and the de
ten,e a fact which i, easily poled by
a. glance at the statistics of the game .
All in all "Dick" Ranch and his mon at:-
cumulated some sixteen lint clowns and
during the entire course of the game
were never forced to extricate them
selves from dilliculties tinting - IC the
gentle art of punting. - In the same
pet iod of time the Academy eleven man
aged to scrape together but live {list

were forced to protect their goal fioni

The Freshmen score came about via
four touchdowns and one goal from the
same. Three of the touchdowns are yet

cue - .Miller, who spent a - goodly pact of
the atteinoon in allowing the fellow
