ANOTHER SUGGESTION
The splendid wny in which the great throng of students, and vis
itors were taken care of m the bleachers on New Beaver Field last
Saturday was certainly a sight good for the eyes that had been made
sorrowful by the sights noted on that field in previous years when it
was impossible to care for such throngs The amount of good that
the new bleacher has brought cannot be underestimated. There is,
however, a suggestion which the COLLEGIAN believes might greatly
facilitate the handling of these people, especially as regards their
leaving the large new stand
The stand has at present but two ways of entry, and the same two
ways arc needed foi outlets when the stand is being emptied. The
length of time required *to leave the stands, especially as noted last
Saturday, makes it seem desirable that some other ways be provided
to facilitate more rapid emptying Would it not be wise to add several
short steps leading out of several of the boxes directly or to the track 9
Two sets of steps each about one-third way across the bleachers would
be a great aid in emptying the stands, and would cost very little. A
more elaborate method would be such a one as is found in large stands
such as at Forbes Field, where passage ways lead from the front of
the stand to the rear, running directly under the scats. This would,
of course, remove some of the seating space and would probably be
more expensive to shape. The former plan, it would seem, would be
easiest, least expensive and aid greatly in removing the occupants from
the stands
Although it is realized that there will be no more use for tho stands
on such an extensive scale this year, this suggestion might find use for
accommodating future crowds.
STUDENT PROPERTY
College property is student property while the student is in col
lege and it should be the desire of every student that that property be
kept in the best condition at all times. At the Bryan lecture the other
evening, students again resorted to the old method of scaling the walls
and seating themselves on the sills of the windows in the Auditorium.
In the process of elevation, the students invariably scar the finish of
the varnish and damage the appearance of the walls in other ways
Least of nil, but nevertheless present, is the fact that they disturb those
about them while attempting to scale the helghth. The practice is
undoubtedly a bad one and should be stopped immediately. Protect
college property and you protect that of the people of the state and
incidentally your own
A CHANCE FOR YOU
Those who were present at the lecture last Tuesday evening and
heard William Jennings Bryan speak were certainly not disappointed.
The COLLEGIAN believes that Penn State students were most fortun
ate in hearing a man of such remarkable ability and international re
pute ns Mr Bryan Besides his remarkable personality and his ability
to “put across’’ his message with force the subject matter was very well
taken. It gave something to think about, a world problem which could
very easily be applied to our own campus Students, when they have
gone away from Penn State will want to be convinced spiritually of
their work in and for the world They will want to do good, not only
for their own advance and that of the world along their own parti
cularly chosen line, but also in the greatest one of all. Too many in
stances of selfishness and greed come before the eyes of man in daily
life We can help eliminate a large portion if we undertake to learn
the true meaning of things ns they arc and ns they should be. One
great way is to cooperate with the Y. M. C. A. and its leaders in all
that they do for the betterment of spiritual life at Penn State. Those
who attended the "Y” meeting last Wednesday evening will know of
some of the work to be undertaken Let us all put our shoulders to
the wheel and do our part.
