Member of leteicellegluie Newspaper Assodottoo FRIDAY, APRIL 15, 1921 WELCOME TO OUR PRESIDENT The COLLEGIAN, in behalf of the student body of Penn State, wishes to take this opportunity of welioming PFesident,Thomes to his new cha'ige The arrival of our new President has"been` awaited with eager anticipation by the entire'Colleie, and his entrance this afternoon will be the sign far a demonstration in hisThoeor on the Front Campus. Ever since the annountementlharDr - Thomas had accepted the presidency, - the college hes been waiting for an opportu nity to receive and welcome him to his-new duthes, and his arrival this afternoon will be a time' of renigini,adinng:theyLelAinners of Penn State The college has felt_the need of an executive since the retirement of Dr Sparks and 'the tilling of the office by Dr. Thomas promises much for Penn State. The College seems bound upon a course of expansion and the future holds possibilities little dreamed of •years ago. - -The past ten years has seen an enormous increaieiiithe reputation and - standing of this institution and a corresponding increase iri'its'aefulness to the Commonwealth. Under the leadership r ef`De. Sparlis",'Penn State grew by leaps' and bounds until now it may be called a truly repre-, sentative state institution, which, - it the''acipropiiation' now tinder consideration is granted, will be able to serve the'people even more fully, and will be on a plane of equality with any other institution in the state. - The present time is indeed a momentous:nue in _the 2history of the college. Penn State has passed through a period of remarkable growth, and is 'now at the parting of the ways, waitiing'to decide whether to progress still further until it is the leading university in Pennsylvania, or whether it will say 'f;,We hiVe_gline,farenough" and simply hold the position now attained. - - -President Thomas is the man 'Who can lead Penn State to higher 'things. He is a builder and his recateuifiliddluburY„shows that, he is capable of guiding this institution mats upward path. -, He comes with the best wishes and the ties of' warm. , frien'dship from his as sociates in Vermont to a field of great possibilities at Ponn:State. We wish him success and extend,to him our friendship and coopera tion, ant? our earnest desire is that - every year "of• his Presidency may be filled with increasing joy and , the'satisfactioin of work well done. THE TUG-OF-WAR The tug-of-war which will be held tomorrow afternoon en—Old Beaver field promises to be one of the most hotly ,contested pulls staged since the institution of this class scrap. The rivalry",boteeen the two lower classes is at top pitch and the winner of 'this:contest will surely earn the victory, if present'indications bearlany vieight as to the determination of each side to•win:"Thii'contest is a valuable custom, providing a safety valve for underclass rivalry, and will no doubt compel the attendance ,of''every'itudent on - account of the unusual rivalry existing. ' The enforcement of .the rules and regula.i tons is in the hands of a committee of, students_ and it is the duty: of every man to see that the rules are obeyed. Charges of unfair ness have arisen in the heat of the struggle during past contests, and if they are to be avoided, every one Must assist the committee in the strict enforcement of the rules. ' NEW WOMEN'S EDITOR As a result of the'annual election h4a at this time by, the women students . of the college, the COLLEGIAN wishes to announnce a change in the position of Woman's Editor, Miss Doris Browning '23 being the person 'selected by the girls' to represent' then' on the staff of this publication for the next year ' 'The retiring 'Women's Editor Miss Helen Field '2l, has served well . and- faithfully ,the 'interests of the College and the COLLEGIAN' and' it 'is with sincere that we announce her retirement Miss Browning, who will take up her new duties immediately, is well qualified ,for her _position and will start her new duties with the best wishes •of the students she represents. - APPOINTMENT OF CARTOONIST It is with gi•eat pleasure that we announce at this time the ap pointment of Donald E. Magill '22 to the position of cartoonist. This issue marks the appearance-of the first drawinng for the COL LEGIAN, of this talented young man whose works are. by en means unfamiliar to Penn State students through the columns of the col lege. _ comic.
