Huntingdon .Collegians to Open
Cage Schedule on Armory Floor
Tomorrow Night
Pemi Stnto opens Its baalcetlHill sen
non tomorrow night ut “Js'JO o'clock with
Juniata College In the Armory. Tho
Blue ami White flvo will bo composed
of "Wolfe und Wilson ns forwards, Jtep
loglo at center and Kllllngor and Haines
In tho guurd positions. Thuro has not
been much doubt about four of tho
varsity bctlhs but there has been con
siderable doubt uu to the man who would
succeed to the position hold by Multan,
tho forward that graduated last year.
Wilson will in ull proabllity sturt tho
gumo. Ho has shown promise In the
practice the last few weeks and is an
excellent, offensive player. If the game
warrants It numerous substitutions will
bo made In tho course of the contest,
and Way, Koehler, Shalr, Hunter, and
Whltomun will llkoly bo tho men to
find tholi way Into tho, cage battle
l>ofoie Its close.
LltUo need bo said of tho ability of
tho Nitlany guards, Haines and Ktt
linger, as their work lost year was of
a calibre sulllclent to place them In a
class with tho host defensive workers
In the game They huvo not unjustly
been styled tho best pair of guards In
college circles today. Roploglo Is an
other of last year’s veterans, six feet
and over of rare basketball talent und
a sterling center. Wolfe completes tho
quartet of veterans being a forward
with an unusual ability for dropping
tho ball within the iron circle. Wilson
who rounds out tho flvo_hus lots of
competition for his now berth.
Tho squad lius been shifted somewhat
by Coach Herman during tho last few
days. Hunter Is now working with tho
guards and Shalr has boon put to work
with tho centers Tho latter Is tall und
has ability for jumping tho bull so ho
fits in well at tho contral position Way
is a nowcomor on tho squad as this is
tho first year that Iwrhas shown up for
varsity practice hut ho has a lot of
cage tulont and will he given a cluinee
In tl<o gumo If the conditions Justify it.
Several new rules will bo In force in
this contest that have been recently
promulgated by tho Intcrcalleglato Bas
ketball Association Thcsa changes are
ns follows: •
1. A play or mny bo taken out of tho
gamo nnd put in ugaln at any Umo If ho
was not taken out on account of tho
porsonnl foul rule.
2. Tho Inner end lino Is abolished un
der tho basket, tho referee shall take
- tho ball fifteen- foot within tho court
and thcro'loss bp ir Thla'ru!o wna made
.'"ball into'tho basket Imcafco tho'baU is
tossed up under tho goal.
Juniata Hus Velcran Team -
Tho Huntingdon aggregation like tho
Bluo and WhUo has a team mado tip
of eaaoned cage players, four of tho men
having had positions on tho varsity
last year. Honolaon and Englo, tho
forwards, OrlllUhs, tho center, and Cap
tain Wolfgang und Oiler, tho guards all
saw service during tho last season ex
cept Englo who is tho now man to bo
promoted to tho varsity of our western
guests. This combination lias a good
record for tho past season and will fur
nish strong opposition for tho gamo to
morrow jilght. This contest opens tho
basketball year for tho Huntingdon fivo
ns well as for Ponn Stats so little com;
parlson can bo mado of the respective
merits of tho two fives but from past
experience tho Nlttany combino can look
forward to a fast gumo. Juniata has
a good supply of material on hand this
scuson and will bring soverol substitutes
In caso they are required, among them
aro Boclcly, Hnnawalt, and Kcphart

FACTS ABOUT PENN STATE
*ihe Pennsylvania State College is the only institution of higher
learning of such definite public character in the state and for which
the Legislature of the Commonwealth has directly obligated itself
for maintenance and support.
The operation of the Pennsylvania State College is, and always
has been maintained by funds from the State and Federal govern
ments. There is no private endowment support.
No charge for tuition is made to students in this college. This
is eliminated so that the State may extend the opportunities of higher
education to its youth without an-expensc which would be prohibitive
to many. The student docs, however, pay certain fees to cover the
cost of materials he consumes in laboratory instruction and to apply
on the cost of heating, lighting and maintaining buildings.
* About $l,OOO is saved to the student and his family during a four
year course by the absence of tuition charges.
The Pennsylvania State College is the only college in the State
which has no private endowment nor tuition charge.
The organization-of the Board of Trustees of the College is
established by the law of the, State. Its membership provides for
four cx-olTtcio members, the Governor of the Commonwealth, the State
Superintendent of Public Instiuction, the Secretary of Agriculture
of the State and the President of the College, six members appoint
ed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate, twelve mem
bers elected by a body of delegates representing the> county agricul
ture and engineering societies.and nine alumni elected by the grad
uates of the College. The Board of Trustees is required by law to
make annual financial and operation reports to the State.
The work of tnc Pennsylvania State College is performed in one
of the largest educational plants m the nation. Its twenty-five edu
cational buildings arc located on a site 200 U acres in extent. Its resi
dent student population numbers 4300 which number is supplemented
in extension and correspondence classes in all parts of the state by
an additional number which brings the total student body to 10,000
persons. Through its extension divisions, the college enlarges its
influence to tne euent that eaclPyear no less than 200,000 Pennsylvan
ians receive direct educational benefits.
As a collegiate institution of Applied Sciences it stands, in point
of size, as the largest in the State of Pennsylvania and among the
first three in the United States. ,
By virtue oi us public endowment and character, all male.stu
dents arc required to take two 'years of military training under Un
ited States War Department supervision.
Since its establishment, State College has pro
vided residence instiuction in-' the,, Applied Sciences to over 23,000
students and through its extension divisions has given systematic
to over .<O,OOO i.Pftamjklitfuijaos-iii-lheK. home districts’- -
In the number o/'graduates entering into industrial and agricul
tural life, the Pennsylvania State College ranks among the first six
institutions in the United States.
The worth of the national Land Grant. College system is shown
in the fact that from a mere idea in 1862, it has j»rown until today
over 50% ot all students oi collegiate grade in the collegs and uni
versities of the United States are enrolled in the Land Grant Col
leges.
In 1918, the State of Pennsylvania appropriated 19 cents per
capita of population for the support of higher education and ranked
29th in the United States in that respect. Nevada spent $1.29 per
capita, Oregon $1.19, Minnesota 85 cents, California 83 cents, Mich
igan 66 cents, Ohio 40 cents,,lllinois 37 cents, West Virginia 34 cents,
Maine 20 cents.
In the last three years Illinois has appropriated more money for
maintenance alone than Pennsylvania - has appropriated to The
Pennsylvania State College for both maintenance and buildings
in the 58 years since the acceptance of the Morrill Act. And the
population of Illinois is only 75% that of Pennsylvania.
Fourteen states in the Union have provided assured incomes to
their State institutions by the establishment of special taxes for that
purpose. Prominent umong these are Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Wiscon
sin, Minnesota, Michigan, Nebraska and Oregon.

WILSON CLOSED SERIES .
WITH STIRRING APPEAL
Noted Y. M. C. A- Lecturer De
livers Six Impressive Addresses
Before Student Body
"With'u message that was stronger In
tho lust two addresses than any other
time during tho week end, J. Stitt Wil
son finished tho series of six meetings,
which ho has been conducting at Ponn
Statu, on Sunday. During tho entire
scries Mr. tVllson exhibited remarkable
pedagogical powers, proving himself to
bo ono of tho most remarkable teuchors
that has appeared on tho platform at
Penn Stato for some tlmo. His mos
gago, though exceedingly now- and vital,
seemed to lack tho appeal tor Ponn
State men which he claims it has had at
other institutions. To a minority ot tho
students, his visit has mado a romark
able Impression but unfortunately tho
larger part of tho otudont body failed
to measure up to tho Immensity of tho
man and hlu message.
Friday evening’s address took up tho
discussion where ho loft U on Thursday
evening and after a considerable re
sume of the points already taken up, Air.
Wilson showed rather briefly by a few
quotations that there was something
greater as an explanation for human
llfo than Darwinism. Ho also showed
tho relation In a short explanation be
tween Die threo great sclonccs of biol
ogy. pnjchology and sociology. Using
these as a working basis ho sliowod that
nit of tho sciences bud wide enough
range to Include all tho scientific tend
encies of man and that tho ono goal
toward which they worn working wus
truth in all positions and conditions of
human life.
Going back to tho fact that ho was
looking for a prlnclplo Air. Wilson drew
on tho same fact that ho roltoratcd
from tlmo, that thoro was ono fact
which ull vvns provod by tho lino of
discussion which ho bad brought forth
—thnt tho struggle with others for the
common good would ovcrcomo tho
struggle for solf. Ho vory forcefully
closed his discussion by a roforcnco to
the prusncl condition of tho world and
that thcro w*as a solution in tho teach
ings ot Jesus Christ
As his subject for Suturduy ovonlng
Mr. Wilson used “Tho Pagan World
and tho spirit of Jesus." Ho *p!ctured
tho world at tho present tlmo with all
its thought for solf and Its wonderful
interest in tho things material and pro
ceeded to show that it was Httlo xnoro
than pagan From this point ho pro
ceeded to show that the spirit of-Jesus
Christ was so large, so generous and
fully adequate to moot this problem of
the present day world.
- Sands?-'Addresses- 1 .Good *— -
At a combined chapel sorvlco held at
halt pant ten In the Auditorium, Mr.
Wilson mado a straightforward talk to
about six hundred students. Hu made
as his opening statement "If colleges aro
to be as spiritually eclipsed as arc tho
other walks of life, wo might as well
wrlto finis at tho end of this series
Ho then took a very few moments to
outllno tho problems and tho addresses
to date and immediately began on his
subject for tho morning. Ho took for
his main point tho teachings of Jesus
and outlined to his audience that as
students of history, they knew that at
tho end of threo hundred years of
Christian civilization thcro was a period
of Park Ages for a thousand years and
It was during this pcilod thnt Christian
ity nearly succumbed. Other branches
of study and civilization wero also al
most eclipsed and It was not until tho
tlmo ot tho Renaissance that there was
any Indication of tho return of civiliza
tion. Soon alter this now interest in
art, education nnd sclonco thcro canto
a corresponding Interest In religion and
soon tho Reformation was effecting a
remurlcablo change In Europe. Mr.
Wilson showed how at that tlmo of tho
Renaissance that tho past was pierced,
but It Is now tho future which must bo
examined In order to find what light
science and religion will offer on tho
problems of tho present.
Tho Teachings of Jesus
Mr. Wilson took tho standpoint thnt
ho supposed himself not to bo a Christ
ian and working from this premlso as a
purely scientific student, ho took tho
teachings of Jesus and showed specifi
cally that certain well known phrases
from tho Now Testament had a bearing
on present day life "The spirit of the
Lord Is upon mo, becauuu ho hath an
ointed mo to bring a messago to tho
poor," nnd tho few i orsos following
woro dwelt upon by Mr Wilson und
ho said that tho "poor, Ignorant, en
slaved and bruised" aro thoso who de
mand present day attention and tho
Christian is tho ono who undertakes
this task of helping thorn. Tho reason

EUROPEAN RELIEF FUND
GETS LARGE SUPPORT
Four hundred and twenty members of
tho student body and faculty havo sub
scribed twenty-five hundred dollars to
tho European Student Relief Fund, ns
learned from results received Into last
ovonlng. Tho drlvo which began Sun
day morning during tho chapel sorvlccs,
was Increased considerably yesterday,
and as can bo readily seen from tho
figures quoted, a vory small percentage
ot tho student body has been heard
from. It Is expected thnt during tho
remainder of the week tho lists will
contlnuo to como In and tho amount
wilt bo greatly swelled.
This fund originated as a result of
tho Investigations mado by tho World
Student Christian Fodoratlon and tho
American Relief Administration, tho
latter headed by Mr. Herbert Hoover.
It la tho hope of these organizations to
rollovo tho pressing needs of tho stud
ents and professora of Central Europo
and Eastern Europo. Other studont
movemonts, among thorn tha British,
Australian, South African and Dutch,
havo already undertaken relief work for
tho students of Buropo nnd havo sent
largo quantities of food nnd clothing.
