The amount asked by the Board of Trustees totalling over six million dollars was an optomistic figure and one which included a splendid plan of ex pansion for the college, but there was not much disappointment when the legislature finally passed a bill giving Penn State approxi mately hall that sum. That would be sufficient, it was felt, for the next two years. The college could get along comfortably on that sum; there could be no expansion of any extent, but the amount would be sufficient to keep the institution on its feet and maintain its present standing. Everyone was satisfied with the appropriation' or at least felt that it would suffice for the time being From the legislature the appropriation bills were sent to Gov ernor Sprout to be signed and to be pruned down so as not to exceed the budget of the state Cuts would have to be made somewhere but it was the unanimous sentiment that if any bills should be slashed it should not be the appropriation for Penn State. The Governoi had said that lie would suppoit the state college of Pennsylvania, that he iccogmzed the great work which it is doing, and that he would not decrease our bill if it could at all be avoided In his .sfracch^cr-t^e^UideauJiadyJ-3SJLAluipjii._Da v .v'gL.th.e on the Front Campus, he said, “I will help and do all that I can to aid Penn State and all educational institutions But you must help. ou and your ulumm must work so that you may bring to your col lege what is needed”. The Governor expressed himsell as being favorable to aiding this college and placing it as well as all othe. Pennsylvania educational institutions, on the highest plane of ef feciency in this country He stated that inasmuch as Pennsylvania was so gifted with natural resources and large wealthy industries tnat heixjieople should receive an education second to none in tut- Union In view of these words of the Governor and his pledge of sUp poit to make Penn State a strong institution worthy of the state ol Pennsylvania, the friends of the college felt that Governor Sproul could do no less than approve the amount set by the legislature He would have to 'make some cuts in the mass of appiopriations atid might piune the State College bill in common with the rest of the bills, but that he should slash nearly a million dollars Irom a bill alieady cut to a mintmum was unbelievable. That he should make the greatest cut ol all the educational bills on the appropriation tor Penn State was amazing in view of Ins foimer words That pri vately endowed institutions should receive their millions and the. state institution be cut off from financial support by a state ns wealthy as Pennsylvania was unthinkable. There seems to be no valid explanation. Ihcre is but one thing left to do, and that is to lay plans foi 1923. The splendid organization built up by the alumni is grow ing rapidly and broadcasting the name ol Penn State over the cdun tiy it did all that it could to aid the college this year and nearly put its piogram across In this direction lies the work to be done As Governor Sproul said, —we must help. We must not only help it seems in view of the Governor’s subsequent action, but we must so impress the needs of the Pennsylvania State College upon the people ol this state that in the future no legislator or governor will dare to oppose their will and fail to give to this institution all that it requires if it is to serve the people to its fullest capacity A ‘SAFE AND SANE’ COMMENCEMENT One of the unfortunate features of all celebrations and holi days is that there are usually a few men who are so weak that they do not make the proper use of the occasion- Commencement is not an exception to the rule and m the past some student has usually picked this time to display his weakness to the world In a town like State College without any police protection except the spirit of its inhabitants, one or two students who may come under the in fluence of liquor can make disturbance before taken in cus tody, and can put the town in very bad odor with the visitors who come from all parts of the state for an affair like Commencement Disturbances of this nature are not to be countenanced and must not be permitted in a civilized community. There is no reason to believe and no signs point to this mcnccment being any different from those in the past and,we are in just as much danger as ever that some week-kneed and weak nimded student who should never have been permitted to enter Penn State will take advantage'of the coming holiday period to dis play his‘depravity to the world. From the actions of the students during Commencement Week, the visitors will draw their impressions of college and the students, and they will be open to unfavorable ones as well as favorable ones. We want them to learn that Penn Slate students are upright, honorable men who know how to con duct themselves on all occasons, and they wll not get that idea if some'weak brother falls by the wayside and makes a spectacle of himself. Putting aside all considerations of right and wrong which -may be brought into the question, for the good name of Penn State we can not permit any one to obtain anything but a favorable impression of Penn State It is a problem which must be faced by the entire student body if it is to bo properly dealt with and v it will require the strict attention of every man if all unpleasant spectacles are to be prevented. It can be done and must be done. The honoi of the college is at stake and every Penn State man will answer the call to duty. _ - FROSH WIN TITLE IN CINDER SCRAP Bdiloi Assistant Edlini Senior Associate A B Poit '23 B D Sehlvo’23 Miss Boils Browning '2l E E Helm 21 G Mon is '24 C.

For this reason, it can easily bo scon that- the idea which some have of grlplngvtlie club hard only with the loft hand is entirely wrong. Both hands shoufd toko a firm grip on tho handle, and keep It so until the stroke has been completed The light Is undoubtedly the master hand in directing and putting force into n swing while the loft has important du ties in guiding while tho right does the, work The stroko in this case as In nil oth ets is that of the hit rather thnn that of the sweep If the "rlghfhand and ttm are given their proper use on the club. the stroke will be a hit, while the dominance of the left aim tends to il aid the sweeping motion which Is not so effective. In all cases tho lift Is moi e iioweiful than tho sweep Addressing and Teeing the Bull The player should sec that he nd di esses the ball with the centci of the five of his club and that he soles the club naturally. After this is done, he should take pains to see that he comes back to the ball in almost the same mannei as he addiessed It. When his club has left the ball coirectly, ho should hold the shaft firmly until the the stroke is finished -.Care should be taken to stand at the proper dis tance from the bail By practice, the proper distance may be discovered The ball should not be teed high This is an unnatural thing to do and does not agree with the height of the ball In other strokes. If a golfer plays the other stiokes naturally, he will drive unnaturally by teeing too high A good rule to follow for this Is never to tee higher than necessary.
