Penn State tradition demands it STAMPS FOR FOOTBALL TRIPS The novel plan, wnereby the athletic authorities ot the Carnegie Institute of 'lechnology hope to have almost-one hundred per cent |attenrL“\ce_of the student body~.it the Carnegie lecn;—Penn State Undergraduates^ Savings Stamps pun and will be conducted under the title of ‘ iVnr State I rip Savings Stamp Campaign.” Stamps will be sold to the students at twenty-rive cents each and the latter will then paste them in a folder, winch will hold stamps to the total of fourteen dol lars, a sum equivalent to the cost of-the trip From Pittsburgh to State College and return A special appeal will be made to the Tech stud ents during the next two months to Forgo a few luxuries such as candy movies, cigarettes, etc, and it is hoped that in this manner the move ment will go through with'decided success. The enthusiasm with which the school as a whole is taking up the stamp idea at Carnegie Tech indicates the possibility of inaugurating a similar plan at Penn State This season the Blue and White gridiron team will be called upon to face perhaps the hardest schedule in the history ot the college and it is obvious that the full support of the students will be necessary This stamp idea might be a big help in boosting the undergraduate attendance at the Navy, Georgia Tech, and Harvard games The active students, in addition to the many alumni who always attend the contests away from home, would make a fine impression at the games and would greatly strengthen the morale of the team Never before lias a Nittany eleven support of her rooters so much, and this scheme seems quite feasible. Approxi mately two months remain before the big away games and the stud ents have suflicient time to raise the necessary carfare, but there is no time to wait. We must act at once if the plan" is'to be effective this year ' THE LIBRARY SITUATION The important changes in the regulations concerning the use of the library will greatly increase the service of that department of the college to the student body. Because of the crowded conditions at Penn State, the executive of the College has ruled that the Library shall no longer furnish study room and that the book stacks shall be closed Some student sentiment has been expressed that the library is being curtailed, but upon giving due consideratom to the facts it may be seen that under the new Tulmgs the interests of all concerned will be bettered. Since the construction of the library in 1904, the size of the stud ent body has increased from about five hundred to over three thousand undergraduates. This growth of the college has been especially felt in the Library, where the seating capacity of the main, or reference room, is only one hundred and seventy. In the past it has been the habit of students to use this building as a studying place during vac ant hours and, as a result, its strictly legitimate use had been hampered. In this advance in the size of the student body, the hbi ary has been forced to endure the crowded conditions more than any other division of the college. Among the other departments, this increase has been evenly divided and the congestion has not been so severe To the library, however, come all the students from all the different schools and, thus, the massed state of affairs has greatly hampered their work.. * 1° losing the book stacks and the seminer rooms, the officials have only taken the final step in the plan which they have been gradu ally putting into effect for the past few years. The library is ap proaching the number of eighty thousand volumes and it is no longer possible to permit unrestricted access to the books. The larger libi nries all operate under this closed stack system by which jt is pos sible to allow a greater distribution of books among a greater number of people. - All books in the building are still available to readers by merely presenting a call slip containing the number of the book desired. As before, small open shelf collections of new books, of books recom mended for general reading, and of selected fiction will be maintained. Ihe reference books in the reading room are also freely available for use within the room After a short time under the new regulations, students will dis covei that they arc receiving a better library service and that the change has been made for the better It may take an interval to be come adjusted to the new conditions but time will test the wisdom of Assistant Editoi _ Senior Assocf its A.
