FINANCIAL AID NECESSARY
FOR COLLEGE DEVELOPMENT
(Continued from first page)
obtnlned for tho higher academic rank'.
In short, tho revenuos for the opera
tion of nil departments of the college
during the next biennium must be nl
most twlco those of tho current two
years In order that the existing pro
gram of work may not be curtailed.
This, further, docs not Include any In
crease In student body nor improvo
munt along any lines. Tho college
must “too thu mntk" for the next two
years If nothing more than such an
allowance Is obtained.
Critical llulldlng SUuutloiu
In addition to the financial problem,
the building iiucstlon is ciiunlly ns
critical In like case, before tiny en
largements can be llgured upon, tho
present facilities must be bettered At
present u largo number of class rooms
uru crowdod beyond the proper number
for effective Instruction, A number of
class rooms und laboratories arc located
In poorly lighted nnd Impropetly heat
ed basements nnd attics In Some lab
oratories two nnd nften three students
are compelled to work at single desks.
In some instances single rooms house
two different classes nt a time In
many cases laboratories are scheduled
for so many’ houis po day ns to pre
vent adequate preparation of labora
tory materials for successive classes
Some laboratory couihch have had to
be cancelled for lack of space. Olllcc
quarters are so congested that In mnny
departments from four to ten woikcrs
are located In single small rooms.
A large number of buildings aro of
such flimsy temporary construction or
ure In such depreciated condition ns
to Impose dangerous ftro risks to val
uable ptopeity housed In them nnd to
adjacent structures, and to bo of waste
fully high expense In maintenance
Striking cxnmplcs of this condition arc
Old Main, farm buildings for housing
cattto nnd machinery, electrical nnno\
the old mining building, the chemistry
annex and the central stores building
The number of women students who
can be admitted to tho collego has
a maximum until more dormitory faci
lities nro provided
Tho reconstructed central light, heat
and power plant has n splendid modern
mechanical equipment covered by a
temporary frame and brick housing be
cause of lack of funds to comploto tho
pormunent structure
In times of oven mild epidemics tho
facilities of tho Hcullh Sorvlco in Its
Infirmary* nnd tho little frnmo Isola
tion house nro Inadequate for a student
community of half tho size of tho pro-,
sent ono.
Tho social nnd rccrcatlvo features
of student life suffer particularly In
this Isolated community for absolute
lack of qunrtcrs for smull nnd large
group meetings, for student organiza
tion offices, for Indoor nthlctlo con
tests nnd for gonornl social gatherings.
No other collcgo of Penn Stato'a size
nnd prominence Is without adequate
facilities of this kind.
Tho buildings needed immediately to
correct tho deficiencies nnd to round
out thu facilities of the college for Us
present scnlo of work arc ns follows:
Liberal Arts Unit for class
rooms; Chemistry Laboratory
Unit; Main Engineering Build
ing, ofllcos classrooms and
drafting rooms; Mining En
gineering. classrooms and Lab
oratories, Homo Economics,
classrooms and laboratories;
Agriculture, clnssrooms nnd
ofllcos, Form Machinery Build-
Sheep nnd Hogs; Granary, Im
plement House and minor Farm
Buildings, Completion of Pow
er Plant, Carncglo Library Ad
dition, Hospital Extension,
Woman's Dormitory Unit,:
General Administration, olllccs,
Central Stores and Repair shop,
“Student Union,” Athletic
Building nnd Swimming Pool.
For nn enlargement of the college
program to meet all tho demands ns
Indicated heretofore, there will bu need
ed further additions to the general
clussroom and laboratory buildings of
all schools and special buildings such
as Womun's Dormitories. Dining Com
mons. Gymnasium, and Social Contro,
Dairy Manufactures Unit, Cold Storage
Plunl, Greenhouse extensions. Poultry
Plant extensions nnd Engineering
shops. •
In one of next week's issues of the
COLLEGIAN will appear tho exact
amount of finances needed, where the
money can be placed and tho amount
the Board of Trustees will nsk the leg
islature to appropriate that tho col
lege may continue Its work for the
next two yenrs in a manner propor
tional to tho requirements of this com

by the aerial rouio that Joo Straus
conquered tho Lafayette cloven, mak
ing the only touchdown of tho game.
The gnmo last Saturday with V. M. I

was the surprise of the season Penn

In the uffnlis of thu gumo forced tbom
to uso Ihcli best material, all to no
avail However, this defeat has served
to bolstei up the men, and thole work
during tho week hits been of a char
acter entirely different from their ex
hibition lust week. Thcro is not a
shadow of a doubt but that the Red
and Blue will fight hard on Saturday
nnd that they will play their best game
of the season. Whltehill, who was
out with an Injured shoulder has re
turned to the fold nnd will probably
play on Saturday He Is Penn's best
punter nnd is a speedy backflold man
Curl Thomas, who won the Bucknoll
gumo has ntso been working well and
will probably start tho gamo also.
Straus. Miller. Farrell and Ertrcsvnag,
nil of whom had minor Injuries have
Improved steadily ns well as has Har

Captain “Bud" Hopper and Gravo will
likely start at tho wing positions
The Pena Stato lineup will probably
be the samo us the one which began
lust Saturday's contest, with the ex
ception of tho quarterback position,
Williams or Ruos being tho mon who
will most likely work ut that post, un

well nil week und his work at Inter
ference und in plunging the Hno has
been of high clnss “Charlie"' and
“Hinkle” continue to show their ab
ility nt piercing the line and rounding
tho ends for large gains, their speed
being n great featuro of their work.
Llghtncr, JCnabb and Ruhe havo been
working on tho second varsity nnd It
will not be unlikely If several of these
men get a chance In Saturday's game.
The line, strong anntl dependable, fas*
hloned by Coach Harlow Into tho old
stonewall, characteristic of Penn State
lines, will bo composed of “Nowsh”
Bcntz nt center. Captain Hess and
"Red" Griffiths at guard, "Bockio" and
