FRESHMEN INTEKULASS
SOCCER CHAMPIONS
The Freshmen won the Interclass
sttcccr championship on Wednesday ev
ening when they defeated the Juniors
by a seme of 2-0. Due to the fact
that the Freshmen defeated the Sophs
In the scrap on Saturday by a score
of 2-1 a lie for the championship re
sulted between the Freshmen and Jun-
During the early part of the first
half of the game the teams were pretty
evenly matched. However the Frosh
kept the hall well in the territory of
the Juniors goal. Then in the last four
minutes of play the Frosh began to
rush the ball, and succeeded in making
two goals. The half ended with the
Frosh holding, a two point lead. At
the start of the second half the Jun
iors tightened ‘up and began to work
their way toward the Freshmen’s goal.
Then the Frosh played a strong defen
sive game and at last sent the ball out
of dangerous territory. During the re
mainder of the period neither team
gained any deckled 'advantage and the
game finally ended with the Frosh as
victors.
The Frosh have been playing very
good soccer all year, and from all in
dications will be offering some good
material for the varsity team next fall.

Nightly Rehearsals Continue in
Preparation For Thespians’
June Offering
The sale of tickets for "King Pom
pompus 1" the musical comedy to be
presented by the Thespians on Mon
day. June thirteenth, will take
place Thursday, Friday, and Sat
urday .of the preceedlng week. One
of the chief drawing curds ft"'
this production will be the use of musi
cal comedy in place of straight comedy
which has been in vogue for the past
several years. Several excellent and
humorous choruses and dances will he
important features, as well as the fact
that the pick ot the College Orchestra
will provide the musical • accompani
ment. In short, the music in combina
tion with the continuous sparkle of wit
and humor along with the superior
acting which the Thespians have ex
hibited heretofore should, make this pro'
duction a huge success.
Another element that will lend to
create greater interest in and enjoy
ment of the play is the fact that it is
entirely the work of Penn State stud
ents. The play was written by B. W.
Knapp *2l and Prof. C. L. Harris and
it Is directed and staged entirely by
Penn State students, the musical num
bers also being composed by them.
The nightly rehearsals are being rig
orously carried out and the practice
will be strenuously continued until the
date of the show, as was planned.

CAMPUS SINGING WILL BE
DISCONTINUED TILL FALL
Duo to the apparent lack of interest
lunong the student body in campus
singing, the Department of Musk* has
practically decided to give up the Tues
day evening concerts ami allow that
Phase of the college traditions to drop
bother on account of 100 nmnv other
activities or Just lack of interest, ev
eryone of the gatherings have
been too poorly attended to warrant
their continuing.
U has been suggested that, instead
of abolishing the custom entirely, the
singing of the old Penn State songs be
taken up in the various'fraternities and
houses through the town and the acti
vities along that line be confined to
them. At the present time this sug
gestion is looked upon with favor and
it Is more than likely that that is what
will be done.
