“PENN STATE IN THE WORLD WAR”
"Penn Stnte in the World Wm" is to be the-title of the record
of Penn State men in the recent great conflict This record is now
being compiled and in order to make it complete, the aid of every Penn
Statu man who was m the service and who has not yet turned in
lus record is needed It is therefore urgently requested that every
undergradunte who attended Penn Stnte nnd left to enter his coun
try’s service nnd who has since re-entered college, should turn in his
record nnd photograph without delay , , . .
The compiling of this iccord, which has been undertaken by the
Alumni Odicc, is a stupendous task and the turning in of the indi
vidual records simplifies matters considerably.
The book is to be similar to the La Vic, is to contain about 400
paces, and will be suitably nnd attractively bound. That Penn State
needs a book of this sort goes without saying There were nearly
2,300 Penn State men m the service, m addition to 1,500 in the S. A.
T. C , seventy-two men were killed or died from wounds or disease;
at thq close ot the war, approximately forty per cent of the Penn
State men m the service held commissions, the rank ranging as high as
colonel in the army and lieutenant-commander in the navy The
record of the faculty m the war will also be given, and there will
be photographs showing many phases ol the war In the tore part of
the book, there will be an ai tide dealing with the crfect of the war
on the college and the adjustment ot the college to war conditions,
with a summary of the work done by the various schools. A section
of the book will also be devoted to the Penn State Ambulance Unit,
which was the only Blue and White organization in the war, organized
as a Penn State Unit which went overseas as such a unit intact
Every effort is being made to have the book published by Com
mencement and to do this the utmost co-operation is needed NOW
is the tune to turn in these records, because there is sure to be regret
if any one fails to do so and the book appears without it
'The price to be.charged for the volume will ibe very reasonable
and wiU be announced later Owingfto the presents financial con
ditions, h’owever, the price to be fixed must be sulfictent to make
the book pay for itself and meet expenses Should there be a sur
plus, it will be put into the Alumni Endowment Fund or used for
some other similar purpose
An example of what student support will do was fully demon
strated in the triple athletic victory the past week-end The atti
tude of the student body on each occasion was splendid, and
especially in the boxing meet, when the new intercollegiate rule pro
hibiting cheering during the rounds was lived up to in every particu
lar
There were numerous examples of sportsmanship m cadi bout,
both among the contestants nnd among the spectators It is hoped
that this spirit will continue and there is no reason why it should
not. Some oT the principles of sportsmanship, ns far as the audience
is concerned, include the absence of disparaging remarks concerning
the opposing team ,nnd applause alike for fuerd and foe when an es
pecially brilliant play is performed.
The COLLEGIAN wishes to express its approval of the attitude
taken by Student Council in regard to class dances For many years
the right to hold a dance has been regarded as a privilege for the
Senior class alone, and it is only fair that this privilege should be
continued It is one of Penn State's many unwritten customs.
DR. SPARKS LECTURES ON
LINCOLN’S AMERICANISM
••Lincoln's Americ inlßm” was the I
subject of President Spirits' locturo In
tho Old Ch ipol on Tuesday night. |
This waa the llfth of the series of
Tuesday Evening Lcctuies being glvon
under the direction of tho School of
Liberal Aits and a largo uudionco was
Interested throughout by tho account
nf Lincoln’s triumph over adverse cir
cumstances and his election to tho
Presidency Dr Spurks also applied
the lesson of Lincoln's life to a solu
tion of present day problems and urged
hln hoards to uso Lincoln's chnractor
and patriotism as a copy of truo
Aincrltrinlsm The substance of tho
haute Is ns follows
••Aht iltnm Lincoln was purely* a pro
duct of an isolated America. Ills ances
tors for nt least three generations lived
on this side of tho Atlantic nnd were sep
arated by tho broad expense of water
ftom iln* ti millions, the customs nnd
the fill is of the Old World Lincoln
himself was rented In tho frotler statu
of Kentucky which In his boyhood was
on tho ndv anted line of the pioneers
pushing their dlllkullt ncutss the con
tinent Tho Allegheny Mountains were
a real bnriltr between the rude life
which the young Lincoln lived mid the
mote rellmd and cultivated life of the
Atlantic MoalKiurd"
•‘lt would bo suppnstd ft om tills on
\lionment, that Lincoln would bavo
been a tapld Jlngulst who saw nothing
good in the Old Wotid and who had nil
exalted opinion of the ptowess and
powers of the Ametican man. but he
was never the narrow minded, chlp-on
tlie-shmtlder American He was toler
ant. foi giving nnd receptive to the
opinions nnd \iews of others
“In this i especl he fut nlshud a splendid
model for the young Amoiican of tho
present day We me Hushed with our
war vJctoiy. we uro Impressed with
our powetful strength, anil we me In
great dangei nf becoming bullies of the
weak nnd of finding ourselves unduly
swelled by egotism. Lincoln's American
ism was a bi mid gauge Americanism
It was modest. It was unnssumlng. it
was never Intolerant or tyrannical.
It Is a flno typo to copy".
