THE OLD SPIRIT AGAIN
That Penn State students arc heart and soul in back of any move
ment for the college’s good was effectively demonstrated by their
support of the football team during last Saturday’s game. Long
before the men appeared on the Held the stands were being filled with
eager, anxious, enthusiastic rooters, very conspicuous among whom
were the women of the college. This showing' of the student body
presages good for the morale of the team and for the college in
general. The football team, like the college, never was m a more
critical period, and student support was the factor necessary to pro
duce results.
Penn State men do not need to be told twice when their support is
needed. They answered nobly to the call and the result was that the
spirit shown at the Gettysburg game -was altogether different from
that exhibited the Saturday before The students worked in uni
son with the cheer lenders and New Beaver Field never rang so
heartily with studcnt'acdnim of their loyalty than on the afternoon of
the last game. Only one feature might be made more of We have
many very fine songs and there might be more use made of them.
Nothing is finer than the melody of several thousand voices singing
a song which represents their college ideals. It certainly seems that
we might sing others besides "Victory,” "The Blue and White,” "Win
Again Today” and others equally appropriate for football season have
been used very little and yet they arc representative and desirable for
the occasion.
Again, the students should be more careful in their criticism. They
should not criticise the band unjustly when it plays a piece which is
not of the students' direct choosing. The band is one of Penn State’s
staunchest organizations and has served the students faithfully'when
cvcr asked. Certainly it is not asking too much of the students when we
request that they be more considerate of others and cease the nagging
exhibited last Saturday. Likewise, do not criticize the players unless
you know absolutely why a misplay was made. Inasmuch as the
spectators do not know this, it might be much wiser if they refrain
from unj'ust criticism. However, in spite of these minor occurrences,
which came but from the littleness of a few, the conduct of the
student body as a whole was very commendable Penn State answer
ed to the call They got in back of the team, and now that they arc
arc there, will be ever more in evidence, and succeeding contests will
find that no team in this country has more support than the Blue and
White. It is because the students know how much the team means
to the college and to them. Such loyalty cannot pass unobserved.
Penn State students have seen it and from now on their appreciation
will be marked by the bounds and leaps which arc taken in student
cheering, singing and backing for the team.
DECORATE
When the great throng of visitors, alumni and students gather on
New Beaver field next Saturday, the bleachers and grandstands wil\
undoubtedly be filled to very near their capacity. Would not a sug
gestion be fit at this time as to the appearance of the new stands on
that day Without a doubt each scat in the new stands will be occu
pied. However, the Iront will yet remain bare Why not decorate
this exposed portion in colors fitting for the occasion? This decora
lion, we might suggest, should be Blue and White, in alternate strips,
cither run lengthwise along the entire front, or in short strips up
and down The material used might be bunting, or if this is too
expensive, crepe, paper might be used with effect. The latter might
be better, inasmuch as it would be used for this special occasion. Yet
a permanent use could be had, permanent at least as far ns
this season is concerned, and the bunting used. This decoration
would, undoubtedly remove the bareness of the front and add greatly
to the attractiveness of the stands and Held Incidentally the ap
pearance of the field and stands would be greatly improved if some
general scheme of decoration were used. Alumni Day will be a great
day nt Penn State and we should do all in our power to make it a
memorable one, for all participants. This suggestion might make
room for more. It is nt least worth consideration.
This coming Friday evening, Penn State will have the opportunity
of hearing one of the very finest musical organizations in this coun
try. The concert which is the opening number on the Y. M. C. A. and
Department of Music combined musical and entertainment course for
this college year, is one which should be heard by all who can possible
♦avail themselves of the opportunity. The personnel of the group is
a most noted one. Each one is a finished artist, in fact a soloist who
has previously gained wide repute for his work with large symphony
orchestras. Those who heard the Russian Symphony Orchestra during
its Inst two engagements nt Penn State can appreciate the type of
artistry which will be displayed on Friday evening when they know
that this group is composed of personages who have played with this
orchestra previously and have also played with such organizations as
the New York Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Or
chestra, and others which excel the concert group with which Penn
State is familiar The management of the course is to be congratul
ated on their booking this wonderful number and Penn State students
should be glad to take the opportunity of hearing them.

Style changes for Fall as correctly
interpreted by Society Brand Clothes
will be heartily welcomed iby.under
graduates who pay, particular heed to
their appearance.
The long vent in the coat has gone.
Vents in modish suits this Fall will be
noticeably shorter.
Body contours have changed. The
high waist line and the pinched-in
