Blue and White Pacers Lead Field
in Sensational Race—Barron
Wins Second in Hurdles
Penn State's third athletic victory,
during last week-end was achieved Sat
urday night, when the ono mile relay
team from this institution finished,first
in its event In the annual indoor meet
of the Now York Athletic Club ,in .the
22nd Regiment Armory Barron and
Hite finished second and third, respec
tively, in the eighty yard low hurdle
dash The meet was one of the most
interesting and beat managed that has
been held this year, and attracted much
attention in metropolitan track circles.
Penn State W. entered in only the two
events, and in both, the Blue and White
made a good showing. Romig had been
expected to compete in the principle
long distance event, but his physical
condition was none too good so that he
did not accompany the other runners
on the trip.
The one mile relay race in which Penn
State won first place was olio of the
most fiercely contested of the meet
The opposition to the, Nittany speed
liters was furnished by the team from
Rutgers Moore acted as lead MY man
for the Blue and White. He was pen
alized two yards for a false start, but
made this up during ids quarter mile
distance, running a - pretty race, and
establishing a four yard lead. New
comer, who followed him did well for
the greater part of his distance but was
passed on the home stretch by the Rut-
gem runner, who finished about four
yards ahead of NeWoomer. The latter
handed the baton to Mile, who ran n
fine race and retrieved a yard of the
distance lost by Newcomer. Damming
was anchor man, for Penn State. Start
ing throe yards behind the leading man,
he lost no time in overtaking him. Ho
tried to gain first place on the second
lap but was unsuccessful • His efforts
were rewarded, however, on the back
stretch on the last lap. when he emerg
ed into first place and finished , in this
position Ills race was a fine one from
start to finish The time for the relay
was three minutes and thirty-one sec
onds, which Is remarkable for an In
d.= wooden track.
Barron and Bile entered the eighty
yard low hurdles and finished second
and third. Myers, of Rutgers, who spec
ialises in low hurdle events, won the
dash, but only by a shade. Tho judges
had to call upon the time-keepers to
decide the winner, the margin was so
small.
The meet about concludes the indoor
track activities of Penn State for the
present season . Next week, Barron
may journey to New York City to take
part In a meet which Is to bo held
there, but this is by no manes certain.
If the present mild weather continues,
preparation of the squad for the spring
out of door schedule will commence in
the near future In the meantime,
Coach Martin Is giving his Proteges a
well earned after-season rest.

Editor COLLEGIAN
It was but natural that Professor
Crockett's scorching letter concerning
the honor system should touch student
pride to the quick and arouse sentiment
against surrendering the principle of
honor systems But resentment should
not blind the judgment In this crisis.
The present honor system has failed
because the rank and file at the stud
ent body did nor`properly support It
The Honor Committee have done their
work conscientiously. They've should
ered the burden of trying forty or fifty
cases this year. They've appealid to
the student body on many occasions to
support the plan Other student lead
ers, along with the Collegian, have
voiced the same appeal' The Student
Council states. with sound backing that
there Is nothing mom that it, can ,do.
In the face of such facts, those who
