Member of Intercollagloto I , lenspapor Association TUESDAY, MARCH I, 1921 News editor this Issue__ The Penn State Y M. C A is• this week asking every man in college to "share" in its work. The "Y" at Penn State is entrusted with the Christian work on the campus and it has interpreted this to mean the presentation of a sincere message and at the same time the e•tension of as much service as possible to the students.' The work which this organization is doing is known to all; its worth cannot be disputed, its sincerity is of the deepest sort; its ideals are high; it aims to build character, the greatest asset a man can have; it strives to help men reach outward and-upward to find God as a reality But just now the Y M C. A. needs the financial support of every loyal Penn - State man Unless this support is had the Association will be seriously curtailed in the work at ,hand. Isn't the "Y" a worth-while organization? Has the local organization been guilty of any grave misdeeds such as were falsely connected with the International Committee during the war? ,You say that you're not interested in the "Y" 5 Then take a Share and see how your inter est will increase. The Y M. C A is doing a worthy work right here; it deserves the support of all. There can be but one answer—SHAßE HARDLY FAIR 2 Little more than a week 'ago, when Penn State's athletes were giving students and visitors such a splendid example of sportsman ship and Penn State grit and spirit, the student body itself gaffe splen did examples of whit poor spirit is like. Were .this but the first offense in this direction it might be passed over lightly, but it seems that during the entire year these has been a tendency on the part of some students to indulge, in petty vagrancies of conduct at affairs athletic and otherwise. There is no need to detail these various mis interpretations of propriety, inasmuch as everyone knows what they were and it may well be stated now, that the COLLEGIAN has been the recipient of a number of letters from students regarding such matters We might well ask, "What are we coming to?" Every letter received emphasizes the lack of courtesy that seems to be prevalent at indoor meets, both to students who act in official student capacities and to students' guests The COLLEGIAN dbes not wish to always reprimand the student body on every slight point of misconduct, but the evidende in this incident has been too strong for it to go, unreproved. It is high time that certain members of the student body, those who were directly responsible for the noisy demonstrations at the boxing and wrestling meets over a week ago, learn the true meaning of Penn State Spirit. There is no room for rowdies at this college True Penn State men are gentlemen in every sensse of the word and it is the one desire that is ever prevalent in these men's hearts to uphold the name and honor of the college It is the duty of every man who wishes to classify himself as such to see to it hereafter, at every occasion where students are gathered together, that any further attempts toward such com monplace demonstrations are stopped immediately. Create a senti ment against such fictions that will soon weed out the undesirables who claim to find pleasure in such actions. Penn State develops men, and anyone who cannot line up with the others,' had better mend his ways soon or go elsewhere The COLLEGIAN also wishes letter must be signed by the write or withheld as he desires SUMMER SESSION OFFERS NUMEROUS COURSES Penn State will hold its twelfth Sum mer Session for Teachers beginning Xfonday. Tune twenty-seventh, and from all indications, the session will sulpass those of former years. The department In charge of this phase of the college program has sent out 8,000 pt elinanrit> announcements to all parts of tile State and the mailing list h. not ,t been completed The main pm pose of the summer session is to give the public school teachers of Penns} hen'n an opportun ity to broaden and deepen their know= ledge of the subjects which they are teaching and in which they aro inter ested To attain .this end the college cc MI offel more than one hundred cour ses foe ,htch college credit will he given. The courses offered will pre pace teachers lot the examination for a Permanent State Certificate. In ad dition to the regular courses that will be ofteled, molly prominent edu.tors, lector els, and entertainers will bo hero at serious times during the session. It is probable that the students of the regular winter sessions will be permitted to attend the summer school and telto extra work, but this has not been definitely decided Students who - nre back in their schedules will be pei nutted to malco up some of their Solic, as has been the custom in prev ious years.

A crowd of gratifying size and unusual sympathy made for the success, of the concert. The first number offeted was the march. "On To Victory" by Lowe. The march was an excellent concert sel ection and was-played in good style The second, selection wan one of-von &MR'. ever popular overtures. Typical of all his compositions the brilliance of "The Beautiful Galatea," the selection played, was particularly outstanding in the present rendition. The following number was the piece de resistance of the concert, a duet by Messrs Sherman• and 7.ltkoff, accom panied by Mrs H. 'H. Havner. Mr. Sherman Is the student leader of th, otchestra - Mr. 'Wither( is newly ap pointed concert master and Mrs Havner Is ono of the leading spirits In the mus ical life of the college and an excellent accompanist. Drdla's "Marche Trlom phale" and "Tarantella" were the sel ections played.' ...Reminiscences" by Schubert, and "FanUtela" from Verdi's II Trovatoro were then played by the entire orchest ra The last number was of a typo not usually men on concert pregrame, but pecularly appropriate for an audience such as attends the concerts of the Collage Orchestra: It was the "Medley of College Songs" by 'Hinrichs.
