s e linsgrove Five No Match for
Blue and White—Team Work
Much Improved Over Last Week
In what proved to be the least Inter
tliog game ever seen on the Armory
door. the Penn State basketball team
completely overwhelmed the five from
Bus/pa:anus University In the second
game of tile season held last Saturday
evening. The final score was 86-12 and
this tells tile story of the game and
snow s very well the relative strength
of the two teams. The superiority of
the State team was evident at till times
and the lack of practice was very evi
dent In tile Poor passing and shooting
of the Susquehanna five. The game
w as played before a large crowd of
students and visitors who tilled the
bleachers.
The game was late in starting due
to the fact that. the visitors were de
layed by a freight wreck on the Penn
sylvania ILailroad near Centre Hall.
A machine was finally secured which
brought five of the players and their
coach and the contest started about
7:30. Front the very first, the State
team Starteti to pile up the score which
teas only stopped when Coach _Bewlek
pot in his substitutes. Wolfe opened
- -the game with four field goals In rapid
followed by goals by Mullan and two
by ititts. Wolfe again contributed one
to the State cause and McMillin tallied
the rest goal. Mullan was able to
etude the Susquehanna guards and
Aromas' three two pointers Into the
State basket, which were followed by
two more by Wolfe. Mutlan and Pitts
then alternated for two apiece and
Wolfe, not to be outdone. by his team
mates, tallied two more goals. The half
ended just as Mullen dropped another
two pointer into the State cage, '
The Susquehanna five failed to se
cure a single goal from the field during
the entire first half. The two points
made by the visitors during this period
tame front two foul goals shot by Miller.
Mullen added three more points to the
State score by securing three of the
one pointers.
During the second half the State team
continued the steam roller operation with
Milian starting the scoring during this
period. Ile secured two field goals Just
after the whistle blew and Voife and
and Tilts followed him in quick sue
eession with two goals apiece. At this
point Benner secured one of the three
goals secured by his team but this only
served to stimulate the State five to fur
ther action and Wolfe tallied two more
goals. Dunmire registered another goal
for Susquehanna and Mulan, Ritts, and
basket by their accurate passing and
excellent team work. Wolfe and .Mul
lam again secured one apiece and Mil
ler. of Susquehanna. scored the last field
goal for his team.' Wolfe secured an
other score for State Just as the final
whistle blew.
Mensal secured four more pointS fo
Susquehanna by the foul method whil
31011 an tallied two more for State due
ing this period.
Excellent Team Work
The team work of the State five
showed a decided improvement over that
seen in the Juniata game. Mellon.
Inns, and Rolfe are proving to be an
almost Invincible trio and the clever
guarding of gillinger and McMillin kept
the Susquehanna forwards covered at
all times. The playing of the Semple
11111111a five was very poor In nll de
partments of the game and really did
not give the State team as hard a game
as was expected. It did prove however
to be a good game in which team work
and passing could be developed and
there Is no doubt that the State five
will be in more of a Matti°n to meet
the teams on the eastern trip than If
the game had not been played.
tVolre was the high scorer for State
having eighteen baskets to his credit.

share of the scoring. Mullen securing

mate seven. 3lullan also added six

Dear Dr. Sparks:—
Now after the smoke of battle has
blown away. we are living the peaceful
life of a city ambulance driver. We
have had A 'Splendid Christmas and the
festivities of today will be such as will
please your heart as President of State.
We completed our ghat six months on
European soil today, and put on our
fina gold chevron. Then our Christ
mas packages arrived today cheering
us all. Uut t h e bent part came when I
was called to our Italian Headquarters.
Udcertain as to what was in the air,
I appeared before the Colonel. and was
taken before the General of our Army
Corps. After a few good words about
the work of Section 520 in the recent
offensive, lie then pinned the Croce de
Guerra or Italian War Cross on my coat.
lie then presented me with thirty-six
more crosses for each man In the sec-
Hon. lie expressed regret that the
duties of the section kept hint from
personally pinning them on each man,
and asked me to thank them.
I knew that you would be glad to
know that these one State men that I
have under mo did so well the things
that were expected of them as to win
this special recognition. Personally I
am proud to bp the commanding officer
of this group of your men. and never
once have they hesitated to do even
the moot dangerous things risked of them.
I am also glad hat I can bring them all
bock unharmed. Not an injury marred
our fun as we have gone about the work
we came to do.
Again let me thank yoU for the 511100-
did time you made possible during our
training period, and thank you for the
line young men you have built up for
the service . for 'the' country. Your ehi
cere friend,
Edwin B. Lawyer.

The question of the Senior memorial
NVIIS also brought up, and a committee
WOO appointed to confer with the Senior
girls and with the president of the col

NGINEERING ALUMNI TO
MEET HERE FEBRUARY 22
Plans For New Buildings and
Equipment to be Discussed at
Conference of Former Students
A conference of engineering alumni
of the college will be held here on Sat
urday. February 22. for the purpose of
discussing plans for a new engineering
building. Dean Sackett has already
written to each alumnus, notifying him
of the destruction of the main building
on November 26111, and of the prelim'.
nary plans which have been made for
the restablishment of the departments
I which suffred losses. Plans for the en
tire rebuilding and recquiPPing are now
being developed, and the whole future
of the engineering school is being taken
into consideration, as fur as It is pos
sible to do so. in these studies.
In this connection Dean Sackett sug
gested that the alumni of the school of
engineering could he of especial ser
vice, in giving the college the benefit
of their advice and experience. The
character and extent of the new build•
logs and equipment, including a central
light. heat and power plant, must nat
urally be determined by future demands
upon engineering education. It is be-,
'loved that the alumni engineers can
bring valuable suggestions and Ideas in
building and shop planning and con
struction, and that they can be of aid
In securing equipment and buildings to
the hest financial advantage of the col
lege. The future program and main
tortoises of the school of engineering
will be influenced by this meeting.
An interesting program has been ar
ranged for the visiting alumni. On Fri
day evening there will be a smoker In
the Army Mess Hall, where the engi
neers may become acquainted with each
other. The conferenc will be held Sat
urday morning in the Auditorium, fol
lowed by luncheon at the University
Club. where the engineers will be the
guests of the college . In the afternoon
there will be a military review and
wrestling with Penn, and in the evening

IMPORTANCE OF LEAGUE
OF NATIONS EXPLAINED
Dr. Martin Says It Was Necessary That the American Nation Should
Enter International Politics and Outlines Proposed Organization
of That League of Nations
HY DM A. E. MARTIN
(Of the Dept. of I listory and Economics)
The gradual nbandoninent of our pot
icy of isolation during the past two
decades of the present century and the
failure of our attempt to maintain
neutrality In the present war mark it
radical though inevitable change in the
attitude of the United States toward
world politics. It is 1101. our Intention,
however, to abandon the great prlncb
pies for which we 1.13 IL nation have
stood, but rather to extend them .not
only to the two Americas as formerly
to the entire world. Tills LihOUld
not be a difficult task since our system
of government prevails in nearly half
the countries of the world and demo
crattc Meals and institution:: exist l»
most of the remaining countries. The
present position end program of the
United States was brilliantly stated by
President 1111 son in Ills address before
the Senate on January 22. 1917 in these
words:
"I mn proposing, as it were. that the
nations should of one accord adopt the
doctrine of President Monroe as the doc
trine of the world; that no nation
should seek to extend its polity over
soy other nation or people, but that
every people should be left free to de
trmine its own polity, its own way of
development, unhindered, unthreathen
ed, unafraid, the little along with the
great and powerful.
"I am proposing that all nations
henceforth avoid entangling allianCeS
which would draw them Into competi
tion of power, catch them in a net of
intrigue and selfish rivalry, and dis
turb their own affairs with influences
intruded from without." In - other words
the Monroe Doctrine stripped of its
imperialistic tendencies Is to he inter
nationalized. For a hundred years it
has labored to make the Western Hem
isphere "oafs for democracy," and hav
ing succeeded In this undertaking' it
aims now to make the entire world
"safe for democracy." The American
policy of avoiding secret alliances is
to become a fundamental principle of
the new international order; and the
guarantee of all free states of the right
of self development will be given a
world wide applicaUon. In his address
In New-York, September 21, 1918, Pres
!don Wilson said that the price of per
manent peace was "Impartial Justice in
every Item of the settlement, no mat
ter whose interest is crossed; and not
only impartial Justice but also tho sat
isfaction of the several peoples whose ,
fortunes ore dealt with. The indispens
able instrumentality is a League of
Nations formed under covenants that
will be efficacious. Without such an
instrumentality, by which the peace of
the world can be guaranteed, peace will
rest in part upon the WOVI of outlaws
and only upon tin word.'
Fundamentals of League of Nations
While the fundamentals underlying
the League of Nations are Justice,
equality of right, and a desire to do to
others as you would be done by, the
creation of a powerful super-state Is
such a radical innovation that millions
of people throughout the world view it
with suspicion and alarm. It involves
a complete departure from old practicee.
It means the surrender of the right to
make war at will. the abandonment of
eggre.salve ,solflsh policies; and It in-

than seven of the graduates intil already
left college to take up new positions only
eighteen men were present to re

nine were graduating in "Agricultural
Chemistry, these being the men who
took a special setnestg of college work
last summer• so that they could finish
their courses (silly and help supply the
great demand for trained chemists.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts was
conferred upon five men from the School

came considerably as a surprise to Penn
State, and especially to the Military De
partment, as the latter hail requested
that he be retained here, with the idea of
his becoming Commandant in the
future. This request was known both
at the Philadelphia anti Washington
ileadquarers, and ns Captain Sarge had
been at the former place a few weeks
ago and hail had no intimaion of this
change, the order came rather unex
pectedly. Major Baylies stated that it
was possible that he would only be kept
here until the linal details of the S. A.
T. C. aro straightened out, and that then
he might be ordered back to Penn State.
Captain Sarge received his coinmis

During his stay at Penn State, Cap

friends among both students and fac

PRICE FIVE CENTS
STATE FIVE STARTS
EASTERN TRIP
Will Meet Strong Penn Five in
Philadelphia Tonight—Team in
Good Shape
The Penn State basketball team. ac
companied by Coach lingo Bezdek and
alanager W. L. Bart, left early this
morning fur Philadelphia where they
will meet the strong University of
Pennsylvania live tonight in the first
game of their eastern invasion. This
trip will Include games with Peon on
Wednesday night. :tluhlenburg Thurs
day night, Lehigh Friday night and
Lafayette on Satin day night. It was
thought somewhat earlier In the sea
son that it would be impossible to
have an eastern trip thin year but the
contract winch made this trip possible
was signed with the University of Penn
sylvania Athletic Association some two
weeks ago.
The team which will represent the
Ulm and White in these contests in the
same its was seen In action during the
first two games of the season here.
Mullah and Rots will play the forward
positions with Wolfe at center and
linger and McMillin as guards. Tilts
combination has proved to he the best
and Coach Bezilek has developed a team
which will he aide to hold Its own
against any In the state. In 3lullan
and Rills he has two of the best for
wards seen on the local floor In some
time and Wolfe is playing a better
Bane at center this year than ho did
at guard previously. Klllinger has
proved to be a real help and he and
McMillin have succeeded in keeping tho
State goal well guarded at all tunes.
Penn Team Strong
During this trip the Penn State five
will meet four of the best team In the
state and good contests can be looked
for every night during the trip. The-
Penn qUintette which will meet the
Blue and White Ilve tonight was inter
collegiate champion last year and this
year is also very strong. Her team 13
identically the same now as when she
captured the championship honors last
winter and will undoubtedly push the
State team to the limit. Penn has al
, ready met several of the stronger col
leges of the east this season and has
registered victories over Lafayette and
Columbia.
The State team will meet the five front
Muldenburg College on Thursday night
in Allentown. Little Is known of the
31uhlenburg aggregation but they have
always put up a good team and a good
game call be looked for. The interest in
the great Indoor sport Is very keen at
Aids -Institution and the Allentown
school nlwcys turns out a team capable
of putting up u good tight.
Lehigh on Friday
On Prlday night the contest will be
with the Lehigh University team. The
Lehigh five Is composed of a number of
veteran men who have played on cham
pionship football mid basketball teams
which have been turned out during for-
mer years. The injury which Wysocki
sustained during the Lehigh-State foot
ball game last fall has thoroughly
healed and he will be seen in action
during the game on Friday night.
Wysocki has proved a mainstay for tho
Lehigh teams during the last three
years and Ills recovery greatly strength
ens their rage team. Ketchum and
Straub are two more veterans who are
playing good ball this year and they
will be seen with Wysocki during this
contest.
The last game of the trip will be
played on Saturday night with the
strong ;live from Laayette College.
Early in the season Penn registered a
victory Over the Eastonlnns but they
will probably give the State team a
good battle. Captain Anderson. who
has played on several football teams at
Lafayette, is one of the strongest men
on the temp and was a potent factor in
keeping the Penn Mere as low as It
was. The State team will remain In
Easton over Saturday night, leaving
there early Sunday morning. The team
will arrive here about four o'cloek Sun
day afternoon.
Orchestra Gives
Excellent Concert
The College Orchestra under the lead
ership of Bandmaster W. O. Thompson.
made its nod appearance in the second
of the series of Sunday concerts held on
Sunday afternoon. The program which
woo rendered was of the same high cal
iber as the orchestra always produces.
and one of the largest crowds of the
year was present to enjoy the moste.
The progratn tom composed almOSi
entirely of classical numbers and several
orchestral sehoitiono from some of the
better k operas were given. Sup
porters of thole concerts will be pleased
to know that the orchestra. will appear
• again in March In a later OHO of the
series of Sunday concerto.
These concerto are proving even more
popular than the ones which were given
last year mid every Sunday afternoon
sees a large crowd in the Auditorium.
This building has been packed to Its
capacity during both of the two at
tractions which have been offered In
the series.
Next Sunday afternoon the attraction
will be in the form of a community
.. Slng , which will be similar to the ones
which have met with so much favor
In the camps and titles. Bandmaster
Thompson has arranged to have the
band on hand and it will play the ac
companiments for a number of the songs.
The numbers chosen for this affair are
mostly old folk songs and ballads which
will be appropriate instead of the army
and popular songs which have bee■
used heretofore. It was thought that
these familiar songs would be more In
keeping with the occasion and tills was
the reason for their being chosen.
It is hoped that n. large crowd will
turf) out for this afftilr and that it will
be' Just as much of a success as the
two previous concerts. All students and
faculty aro invited. Time 3:30 Sunday
afternoon.
