WESTERNERS ARE ACTIVE
Simultaneous Mass Meetings May
Be Held Throughout Country
On January Fourteenth
Only a few more weeks remain be
fore the students of America tv ill pro
claim to the world their stand on the
question of the limitation of armament
os a means of reducing the possibility
of a future war The passing of each
weelt marks some new development In
the countrj wide campaign that is
rapldl> shaping Itself Into a movement
of great proportion, impelled by an
earnestness of comiction and a com
pleteness of organization that assures
recognition on the part of the pleni
potcntarles that arc assembled at
■Washington at the prsoont time for
the, consldeiution of sweeping reduc
tions ln‘ the armament of all nations
and the solution of the far eastern
questions
Pennsylvania About to Act
The college student movement 'or
ignatod in this country at two differ
ent institutions at the same time, Penn
State and Princeton At a conference
held during the latter part of October,
It was decided to ask the cooperation
of all institutions in the country and
to effect an organization that would
be natlon-wldc in its scope This or- 1
ganlzatlon It wa3 later decided would
toe made up of six main districts which
■would 'lnclude the state confcrenccs~ln
the respective districts 'These state
conferences are composed of the dele
gates from the colleges and universi
ties of that state and are the district
units. The general plan Is to holdi
simultaneous mass meetings, at thojj
WfiTf of' ’che'dtC (o' "sTudent chalrmiln^lh
the college center designated .'The
student sentiment of the state will he;
ascertained at these meetings and the
results •will be transmitted to tho con
ferees at ‘Washington through,the me
dium of college delegates
At the last football mass meeting of
the year, tho students of Penn Stato
voted to ■welcome and entertain he
delegates of all other colleges and uni
versities of the state If they should
come to tho college at tho invitation of
the state student chairman This in
-1 dicatos conclusively that the students
i of this college endorse the movement
( and approve of participation in it
J '
institutions in the state giving them
preliminary notice of the state con
ference that will probably bo held on
January fourteenth at the college This
data has hot jet been approved by
the executive committee but it seems
to be the time best suited for the con
clave
State College Is best suited for the
conference because of its accessibility
by all institutions in the state It is
much easier for the western delegates
and northern representatives to meet
here than it would for them to go all
the way to the southern part of the
state and there meet the delegates from
the colleges in that section. It is there
fore rumored that the state student
chairman E. E Overdorf '22 will In
vite the delegates to come to Penn
State and they are assured of a hearty
reception /
'Westerners Organized
In their characteristic manner, the
western Institutions are rapidly fall
ing into line and will no doubt be
ready for the climax of the movement
os soon as thoso in the east On
Novombor seventeenth, the college and
universities along the Pacific coast
sent delegates to tho conference that
was held In tho southern part of Cali-
fornia. The vote taken at that time
, „ was decisive—California students want
* permanent peace nnd they also want
, to abolish all policies that might lead
/ to future conflicts.
Word was received by Mr Overdorf
last week that the students In Minne
sota were organized and had selected
their state chairman
In the circular letter that was sent
broadcast from tho college with the ap
proval of the executive committee, the
history of the movement was related
with tho purpose In mind to acquaint
all the Institutions of the country with
tho details of organization, ‘and tho
reasons why tho movement deserves
tho attention of all % college students

EDDY SUCCESSFUL IN
THIRD CAMPAIGN HERE
Noted Student Leader Makes Great Im
pression by Discussion On European
Conditions and Disarmament
COMPETENT TEACHERS TO HEAD DISCUSSION
GROUPS WHICH WILL BE FORMED TONIGHT
Sherwood Eddy, with his powerful
message anil winning personality, once
again won his way into the hearts of
the Penn State students and success
fully put across his third campaign for
better Christian standards at Penn
State Dr Eddy camo to Penn State
on exceptionally short notice and the
suddenoss of his coming made it im
possible for tho Y M. C A to mako any
elaborate plans for a religious cam
paign Thanksgiving also found many
students away over the week end, but
despite this fact Dr Eddy spoke to a
capacity audience on almost e\cry one
of tho five occasions on which he ad
dressed the students
Sherwood Eddy made his first visit
to this institution In 191 S and four
years later lie came to Penn State for
the second time Practically every
member of the Junior and Senior class
es can recall the success which
the campaign in March 1920 attained.
The impression he left here in his pre
vious visit made a tremendous change
in many students and made a marked
improvement In the general character
of Penn State' undergraduates The
lecentweek end meetings had a simi
lar effect, many Freshmen and Sopho
mores who were reached by Jlddy's
message for the first time wore greatly
impiessed and their life will undoubt
edly be affected by tho message which
VARSITY QUINTETS
ENJOY INACTIVITY
Absence of Coach Hermann and
Killmger Retards Progress
. in Practice
FORTY ON FROSH SQUAD
The past weelt of basketball practice
may be likened to the lull that preced
es tho storm for the Penn State ball
tossers are enjoying a period of in
activity before they begin the strenu
ous workouts that precede the varsity
season Due to the fact that Coach
Hermann ha? been forced to be absent
from tho cotlbgo for a short time, the
squad is going thiough no extensive
preparations for the schedule at tho
present time The absonco of Glenn
Killingcr '22 who is away on the west
ern football trip Is also having Its
effect upon both varsity and freshman
practice
However, up to tho present time,
several likely candidates have display
ed material that must be recognized In
the selection of the varsity quintet
: Reed '24 and Miller '23 are doing won
derful work in tho forward positions
while Shalr ,'23 and Fixter ’24 ore
fighting for the center position and
both seem to bo in better form than
they were In last season Koehler ’23,
Marshall ’23 and Jones ’22 have re
ported for the guard positions with
Koehler showing tho benefits derived
from a season’s playing
"With tho close of tho football sea
son, tho ranks of candidates will no
doubt bo materially strengthened with
the addition of Rlttner '22, Wilson '24,
Cornwall ’24, and Fiank '24, not to
mention a few others who promise to
make a strong berth for varsity posi
tions
The first year squad has been cut
to number not more than forty in or
der that the coaches may watch them
before taking any definite steps to
ward a selection Koehler is taking
tho place of Killingcr ns coach for the
time being but will relinquish the res
ponsibility of Instruction as soon as
“Killy” returns For tho present week
there will be practice every night on
tho Armory floor after the varsity
Bquad finishes its workout
VAPOR HEATING IS SUBJECT
OF ENGINEERING LECTURE
t What promises to be one of tho best
engineering lectures to bo given at tho
collcgo this year is scheduled for to
night in Engineering D, room 200 The
subject of the talk' will ‘ be concerned
with vapor heating and will coincide
with tho work of tho Department of
Mechanical Engineering
For the past few years, it has been
tho policy of the Hoffman Specialty
Company, of Watcrbury, Conn, to have
a representative on tho road to explain
the principles underlying the appilca
tlon-ot modern steam heating appli
ances. Mr C. V. Haynes of Philadel
phia is the representative of this com
[pony who is visiting FonnStats today.
STATE COLLEGE, PA., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 192!
Dr Eddy left with them. Juniors and
Seniors, who had heard him before,
received a new impression of the great
evangelist and his messages gave a.
finishing touch or a recnforcement to
the imptession which he made at Penn
State several years ago
* Discussion Groups
Pi obably the most direct result of
Dr Eddy's thiee day stay at this in
stitution Is tho formation of discussion
groups throughout tho town Ail per
sons who are interested In the formation
of such groups are requested to meet
in the “Y” Hut tonight at seven o’-
clock Tho Y JL C A will secure
competent leaders for all the groups
that arc formed Many students arc
interested in the discussion of indus
trial problems, others arc Interested
in the discussion of agricultural prob
lems, others in problems connected
with the Limitation of Armaments
Conference, and many will be interest
ed In the formation of bible study’
groups It is quite likely that the
group discussing Industrial problems
will be led by Dean Sackctt of the
School of Engineering and equally
competent leaders will be secured for
the other classes that are to be formed

Card—lnterclass Meet Set for
January Twenty-First
PRACTICE TIME ARRANGED
Prospects for one of tho best wrest
ling seasons ever scheduled .at Penn
State are becoming brighter as tho
season approaches because of the largo
numbei of candidates who are working
out nightly in the hope of securing a
betth on the squad Coach Detar stat
es that thei e are yet a number of men
who have not demonstrated their abil
ity and much valuable material may
be unearthed within the next few
weeks
In order that all men working out
for positions on the wrestling team
can have an equal amount of time In
which to spend on their studies and
mat work, tho following schedule has
boon drawn up by’ Coach Detar and is
to bo followed in detail On Monday’,
Wednesday, and Friday nights, the
Seniors and Freshmen will report at
the aimory for their work On Tues
day and Thursday nights and Saturday
afternoon the Juniors and Sophomores
are scheduled for workouts Nights
on which the men arc not scheduled
for mat work will bo used for track
workouts to keep in condition
Many of the men are showing up
; very favorably and with a regular
schedule of workouts now In order It

material will be found and whipped
into shape for tho winter season. There
was some trouble In finding good mat
erial for the 125 pound class but G
ML Davis 122 Is making a strong bid
for this position '
The schedule for the 1922 season has
been drawn up and Is now practically
completed On ~lt are represented
teams which will provide tho stlffcst
possible opposition and from all indi
cations tho Blue and White will have
to work as hard or harder In order to

ed on bv the desire to redeem itself
after tasting of defeat three times in
the past season th it met the Nittany
Lions at Forbes Field last Thursday
afternoon and managed to hold the
Blue nnd White gridiron warriors to
a scoreless tie Thirty-five thousand
spectators watched the age old rivals
spring at each other's throats on a
field which was a i erltnble sea of mud
and although playing conditions were
about as far from ideal as they pos
sibly could be. tho contest was a thrill
er from beginning to end with both
elevens putting up a hard, game
fight
While no alibi as to tho outcome of
the struggle Is nought by Penn State
supporters, it Is nevertheless to bo ad
mitted that the varsity eleven was in
a slight slump for this game and add
ed to this handicap was that oozv field
of mud upon which no footing was

BOOTERS END SEASON
WITH HAVERFORD GAME
Penn State Soccer Team With Bril
liant Record Plays at Phila
delphia Saturday
What will probaoiy be the last gamo
of the Penn State 1921 soccer season
will bo the contest between Havcrford :
College and Penn Stato on the form- ;
er’s field at the end of the week The i
team will leave State College Friday ;
night and play tho Philadelphians the 1
following afternoon
Due to the failure of the duly el- ,
ected manager to return to college this ,
fall, the Athletic Association was lore- j
od to elect another at the beginning
of the semester This irregularity ne
cessarily hindered the now manager in ,
the formation of an extensive schedule ,
because of the fact that littlo time re
mained before the opening of the sea- :
son Most of the other intercollegiate
teams of the east had their schedules .
arranged before the start of school so
that the Penn State season this year
has not been as long as it usually is
The game next Saturday will bo tho
climax, of the schedule for tho Blue
and White bootors. Princeton and
Harvard have succeeded In conquer
ing the champions of the past but this
fact cannot bo taken to mean that the
Nittany team will have an easy vic
tory Havcrford remembers the do
fait that was served to them last year
at the college when they were enter
tained on the Nittany turf and this
year indications seem to point that tho
down-staters will endeavor to erase tho
sting of defeat by stopping Pakenham’s
machine and inflicting tho first defeat
that it has suffered in two soasons
At tho same time, tho Penn State
squad has had no real struggle on Its
hands sinco the Pennsylvania Day
contest when it emerged victorious
over the Lehigh aggregation and many
picdlct that this will tend to slow up
tho work of the Center County lads
The outlook for a most brilliant
schedule for next season is bright If
the standpoint of number of contests
and strength of opponents Is to bo
taken into consideration Princeton,
Lafayette, Navy, and Springfield have
expressed the desire to meet tho Nit
tany team next year and there Is little
doubt that arrangements cannot be
completed to Include these contests
The soccer practice for undcrclass
: men ended with the coming of Thanks

i were repotting for gym credit were in
■ structed to sign up for the winter

This is probably* one of tho most
remarkable series that has ever been
given under the auspices of the Liber
al Arts School although thoso of past
years have been of an exceptionally
high calibre
As a proof of this statement it Is
only necessary to mention tho histori
cal sketches that were given by Dr
Sparks in a previous course, and the
talks on Natural History and Litera
ture that runk with the bc9t Tho pro
gram this year presents a varied list
of interesting topics that deal with
history, literature, education, sclcnco
and sociology* Four of tho lectures
will be accompanied with illustrations
•that will no doubt add to tho value of
the delivery
One of the notable innovations this
year is the cooperation of The Penn
State Players with tho lecturer who
will speak on Molicro on February
twenty-fourth Immediately after the
lecture, this dramatic organization will
present Molierc’s “Tho Affected Young
Ladles" (Les Prccieuscs Ridicules) in
the Auditorium
Announcement of tho various num
bers of the courses will appear in tho

Close Season Saturday
23 PLAYERS MAKE TRIP
Nittany Mentor Has Four Days
To Get Men in Shape—Will
Practice in Stadium
Undefeated In the East, after meot-
lag some of tho season’s best teams,
Penn State’s gridiron warriors depart-
ed for the west Thanksgiving evening
and yesterday morning arrived In
Seattle for their Intersectional battle
with the University of Washington
Four days yet remain before the big
game but, although the Nittanyltes
emerged from tho scrap with the Pitt
Panther In fairly good shape, Coach
Bezdek and his assistants will need
every available minute to bring the
players around into tip-top condition.
Only two or three stops were mode on
the transcontinental Journey to tho
coast and tho men necessarily became
stiff and tired
“Bez" is looking forward to one of
tho hardest games of tho year Satur
day In spite of the rather modicore re
cord which the Wellington eleven has
made to date It has lost three out of
eight contests, going down to defeat
at tho hands of California, Oregon Ag
gies, and Washington State, hut In the
last two named games, the scores have
been small'and the winning teams have
had to fight every inch of the way in
Che California game, the score was
very much one-sided but tho California
aggregation has cleaned up every foot-_
ball s fKom ii on' r? tEe’- s
season by decisive scores Friends of
Penn Stato In tbe west have warned
“Bez” that the California score is not
a true indication of the strength of
the Washington machine. The latter
held the strong Lclond-Stanford el
even to a scoreless tie Its western
schedule closed last Saturday when
Washington State was met, while the
battle with Penn Stato this week brings
tho entire schedule to a close at tho
same time that the Nittany Lions
complete their schedule.
Penn State Receives Other Offers
Penn State received numerous offers
this month for post-season games with
big teams of tho country but was un
able to accept because any one of
thoso would necessarily prolong the
training of the players and would In
terfere to a groat extent with their
school work “Feelers” ’ wero sent to
tho Athletic Association hero, asking
what the authorities thought of
games with Notre Dame at tho Polo
Grounds, Centre College at Chicago,
the University of Texas at Dallas, Oro
\ gon Aggies at Portland, and the Univ
ersity of California at Pasadena. In
each caso a flat refusal was sent be
cause of the fact that tbe Washington
game had already been scheduled and
becauso of tho reasons stated above.
Tho coaches felt too that nothing
would bo gained by playing any one
of the opponents listed The 1921
Nittany* football schedule will thus
come to a close this Saturday.
Four Days Of Fraetko
Coach Bezdek still has four days In
which to bring tho Blue and White
warriors out of the slump which they
struck at Pittsburgh on Turkey Day
and he believes that ho can do It, now
that the mon are In a different envir
onment and aro away from tho fever
ish conditions which oxlst here Thru
tho courtesy of tho Washington offi
cials, tbe Penn Stato squad will bo
permitted to practice in tho Stadium
at Seattle and each day, will be sent
thru a stiff workout. The day will
probably bo passed In limbering up tho
players and getting out the kinks
which developed during tho long trip
from tho East but tho next throe days
will undoubtedly sco some real work
for tho mon Considerable time will
bo devoted to signal practice and it Is
very probable that a short tlmo each
day will bo given over to scrimmage
work Assistant Coach Harlow pre
coded tho squad to tho coast lost week
and will bo on hand to bolster tho Nit
tany line, one part of tho Penn State
machlna which did not function to tho
highest degree against tho Panther
The Pitt line plainly outplayed it
