THOMPSON NOW ACTING COMMANDANT Never before in the history of Penn State have such conditions that now exist confronted so large a student body as that which Is now starting out upon Its year's work Athletic teams are shot to pieces, the tipper classes greatly reduced in num ber, government has boon dlsorganixe• and there is an air of don't-know-how thinge-will-go all around Changes ga lore have had to be made in the faculty due to resignations and the leaves of absence that have been granted. ..A few positions are as yer unfilled The military department Is without a regu larly appointed government head, and the reorganisation of this and the stu dent government departments will offer a chance for the development of new leaderk at once. - With regard to enrollment, President Sparks entertains hopes that at least seventymercent. o ftho membership of ho three upper classes will be back The registration of Freshmen by Monday evening bad broken all previous records for the Seat day. A total of 401 had bean matriculated when the Wilco closed on Monday evening. Application had been received from over 760 by the end of hurt week, and indications point very favorably to a capacity enrollment of first year - then. The Senior class has suffered most from the enlistments in National ser vice. The best that can be looked for at this time Is a 00 to 66 per cent en rollment in this class The Junior class is somewhat better off; and the Soph omore% will be back In comparatively strong numbers. Including all classes. an enrollment of [Unmet 85 per cent of last year's student body is expected However, the draft and regular army enlistments are taking more and more mon every day, and mdny former stu dents are not returning to college on ac count of being very close to being draft ed In their home districts. "Barge" Allen Gone The military department has lost Its old friend. "Surge" Allen, who just re cently left for Little Reek, Ark, rn-n First Lieutenant in the ordnance sec tion In the army encampment there Major Ahrends Is needed with his regi ment at Gettysburg and Bandmaster W. 0. Thompson has been appointed by President Sparks as provisional com mandant pending the umbel of a com mandant detailed by the government. An attempt is being made to secure a Canadian officer *ho has seen service In nun& to come here and Instruct the cadets. In this manner it is expected that the Penn State drill squads will be able to receive excellent training In the methods of warfare that are being fol lowed on the front. If title plan falls, a retired army officer will probably be assigned to duty here. But the college 'anklets are willing that the student officers take entire charge of the drill under the supervi sion of Bandmaster Thompson, a man who has lived In military circles for years. As yet a colonel has not been appointed to load the college regiment. Four majors were appointed last spring and ono of these, E. W. Kruger, will not be back, having broken a foot during the summer The others are 9 Id Linn, T D Richards end W It Young, all Seniors. Linn will not return for sev eral weeks. No Radical Change In Athletic Policy A - meeting of the Alumni Advisory Committee on Athletics was held last Saturday In order to discuss the ath letic situation for the year due to the war in which this country is now in volved. As a result, the committee de cided that no radical changes were necessary although recommendations of the National Collegiate Association for cutting down expenses and run. ning athletics on a less elaborate scale than In former years were approved. The members of the committee who were present were G. R. Meek, '9O, chairman; C. W. Hoppenstall, '95; V. L. Henry, 'O7; and J. L Mauthe, 'l3 'Major J. H. M. Andrews, '9B, the re maining member of the committee, is with the engineers at Camp Hancock, Ga., and was unable to be present. Due to the fact that "Dutch" Her man, freshman football and 'varsity basketball coach, and "Doc" Lewis, coach of the wrestling team, have both gone to omeers' training camps, the coaching staff of the college Is soma what disrupted. No arrangements have been made as yet with reference to filling these vacancies. The foot ball coaches will bo Resident Coach Harlow, Field Coach "Xen" Scott, and Trainor Martin. "BIM Wood, 'l6, and "Chuck" Yerger, 'lO, now an Instruc tor In the Dairy Husbandry depart ment, will probably oiler their services also. • The chief recommendations of the National Collegiate AssuanSloe were that no early practice should be held: that the eligibility rules should not be lowered; and that no scouting should be done In order to get a line on op• Posing teams. All of these sugges tions were adopted by the Penn State athletic committee As far as is Dee• sible; however, athletics will be con tinued as usual.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR TRACK SEASON Many Old Men Back, and Prep. School Stars Insure a Strong Freshman Squad Despite the feet that military ear vice has deprived Penn State of the services of some of her best truck men and also of some prospective cinder path performers, Coach Martin is very optimistic over prospects for the coming season The Blue and White trainer Ls particularly pleased with the material that he is receiving in the incoming Freshman class Although there are not so many men with reputations who are entering this year. those who have arrived are all mon who have proved their ability in their preparatory school.

Other freshman stars nre Pringle, a inner from Episcopal Academy, Phila delphia; Taylor and Clark of Now Eng land, tho former a quarter-miler and the latter a distance man, and "Dewey" Rogers, of Northeast Moment, Philadel phia, the sensational colored school-boy who has been doing the quarter In GO seconds For the 'varsity thin year, Coach Mar tin will have a strong squad In spite of the loon of name of his bent performers The greatest lose will probably he that of Captain Barron in the hurdles, for the Blue and White timber topper hen been running in great form during the summer meta passed Other men who will not be back are Beck, Cubbago, Janes and Dumbly. In the weights, Shea In the quarter, Foster In the hag, Wilson in the Jumps and Love and Steele in the distance events.

Runyan, Jefferies, Way and Hatfield In the Jumps Connell and Wolfe in the hurdles, and Smith, Unger, Black and Rauch in the weights, Penn State should have a very successful nelson. Coach Martin is planning to begin cross country training at onco and sev eral meets will be schodued for this fall.

GOVERNOR CUTS APPROPRIATION Penn State Receives a Total of $1,275,000 From Legislature; No Building Fund. Governor Brumbaugh was forced to slice large amounts off of the Penn State appropriation this year, and tile result Is tile disappointing fact that any part of the new building program will have to be abandoned. Thy amount of the appropriation given fo , the college to work on for tho next two years is $1,275,000. However, this is a substantial In crease over the appropriation of two genre ago when the college was given only $905,000 for its work The Gov. ernor was forced to cut down all of the elate appropriations Tile amount given to Penn State is lust 0225,000 less than the legislature nuthori/ed, their figure being a million and a half The maintenance item has reduced by the Governor by almost $lOO,OOO When compared with the extensive growth of the college in tile mutt feu years this appropriation compares most unfavorably with the funds pre vlously given. The college was re fused the $350,000 that was wanted for a new armory. The distribution of the aPpropria• lion follows: Maintenance New buildings Armory . .. Now farm land Agricultural and Home Eco comics extension.. . . Engineering extension .... . .

The terms of this act require tile col• lege to secure a like amount from the state The state goternment was asked for art appropriation totaling $2,930,000, proportioned as follows Maintenance, $1,223,000, new build ings, $1,001,000, armory, $350,000, new farm land, $00.000; agricultural and home economics extension, $lO2 • 000, engineet ing extension, $25,000% summer session, $25,000.
