appreciation
The COLLEGIAN wishes to express its appreciation of the manv
favors received during the past week end, all of which aided in mak
ing the fourth convention of the Intercollegiate Newspaper Associa
tion one of the best ever held. The Publishing Board is indebted
to tho Athletic Association, Graduate-Manager Neil Fleming, Profes
sor Kocher of the Fine Arts Department, the Architects Club and all
others who assisted m the housing and entertainment of the delegates
of other colleges to the convention.
In all of it was a manifest ition of Penn State spirit and hospital
ity and gave an additional touch to the impression the men received
of the Pennsylvania State College. The COLLEGIAN appreciates all
these favors and will be honored to reciprocate whenever desired.
LET’S SING THE OTHER SONGS
Instead of always singing "Victory" between the halves of the
football games, would it not be n good idea to make use of some of
the other Penn b tatc Songs. The one but recently presented by Mr.
Leyden would unquestionably be a good one to sing at that time, as
would "Win Again Today" and others There is another way to make
a good impression at Philadelphia and in fact at any contest, whether
at home or away, and that is to sing the more representative college
songs. Therefore, let us have more singing and more variety in it.
ARE YOU GOING TO PENN?
The COLLEGIAN hopes than every student who can possible do
so will make the trip to Penn to cheer the varsity on to victory. The
contest will be a difficult one, in spite of the showings made recently
by the two teams and we certainly do not destre to see a repetition of
what happened four years ago. At that time, Penn State was com?
fident of victory. All indications pointed to such a result of the
battle. However, as many will recall, it was altogether different.
Therefore, let us not become overconfident, but rather let us all
pull together and go to Penn to give the varsity the student backing
so necessary in a contest that will have such an effect on the players
as this one will Penn State must, and will win, and it is the duty of
every man who possibly can do.so, to help the team bring about
the hoped-for results. "We want that bacon."
A THIEF lIN TOWN
Some man in State College, whether a student or not, is a thief
This statement is borne out by the fact that during the past week a
local merchant has suffered at the hands of some individual by the
receipt of a worthless check in return for goods procured. The check
was a student’s check, the kind issued by the local bank for the use of
its depositors The merchant accepted it, believing it to be good, but
upon exchange at the bank, it was learned that no such account was
in existence Consequently it was .to be assumed that the person who
presented the chock had used a false name and without a doubt this
has been the case. This has been the second time that the same mer
chant has been duped by the use of a worthless check and when com
parison was made with the check that was used last year, it was found
that the handwriting was practically the same. In each case, the
check ns written out before the man entered the store to make his
purchase.
In the face of such occurrences, it is to be questioned what stand
a merchant can take. The check was the student type, the kind used
"'by all student depositors. The merchant is placed at a handicap be
cause it is impossible for him to ascertain with each purchase that is
paid by check whether the student has an account at the bank or not.
He must assume that he has. The unfortunate part of this occur
rence is that, inasmuch as all student depositors use this type of
check, it places all of them under suspicion, because evidently some
one of their number took the blank check', either from his or from
anothers check book and used it for this purpose. It places the in
nocent with the guilty.
This case is the only one of itsikind that has arisen this year. It
should be the last. Students who, are innocent of such things and
who shrink at the thought of them, should be careful in the disposi
tion of theirblankchccks. The man who was guilty of the act is the
one who should be caught and punished. It is to be wondered
whether or not he estimates the meaning of this act. It is listed
among those liable to severe punishment and is a penintentinr act. He
should certainly consider this when he docs attempt along the same
line and consequently places that man in the class of men who do not
belong at any institution except one for reform or punishment of of
fenders. Penn State men must feel insulted because of this event.
It places a blotch upon the character of the students and makes others
suspicious in their dealings with students. We certainly do not
want any such men at this college. Better were it for him that he
make his absence felt here, because upon detection, he certainly will
call upon him the wrath of all honorable men and that of tho law in
addition.
THE COLLEGIAN was glad to note that for the most part the
reading of newspapers in chapel has censed. Only one infraction of
conduct was seen Inst Sunday. It is to be hoped that this individual
will cease the practice at once and that those about him will have the
courage to call the matter to his attention.
