SITTING IN THE RIGHT SEAT
Mr,. can not everyone sit in his proper section in the Armory
;it the various athletic events? The Athletic Association has gone to
the trouble of dividing the seating space into the proper sections io:
each class and tile various other divisions that are necessary, but a
portion of the student body seems to think that these signs do not
mean what they say.
We all know that the Armory will not accommodate all who may
desire to witness some of our indoor meets and there is usually a
tusk for scats. but for any student to oppose and hinder any move
ment aimed to relieve the congestion as much as possible is dis
couraging to say the least. We like to think of the typical Penn
State student as a man with sufficient common sense and courage to
see that ail the rules are enforced that are for the benefit of the
entire student body. This division of the seating space certainly is an
advantage to the classes as it provides that each class shall have its
proportionate representation at the contest. It is a good rule that
should be supported by all.
The way to enforce - a rule like this is for each man to take it upon
himself to see that everyone else is in his right place. If he sees a
student out of his proper section, "call" him for it and see that the
man gets out. A few examples of this kind will go a long way toward
the universal observance of the rule.
A UNIQUE MOVEMENT
With the return of E. E. Overdorf, the president of the Student
Government, from Washington, where he, as chairman of the state of
Pennsylvania, participated in the presentation to President Harding
or the resolution collected by the National Student Committee for
the Limitation of Armaments, the student disarmament movement
comes to a close at Penn State. This movement is the first which has
ever drawn the colleges and universities of the entire nation into
such close coordination for any definite object, and Penn State may
he proud to know that she was one of the leaders in the movement.
President Harding, in his interview with the student delegation,
said that he appreciated the backing of the student body of America.
This is the first time that the students of America ever united suffi
ciently upon any question to definitely express through properly
chosen representatives their united opinion. In this case the men of
the colleges said that they favored the limitation of armaments and
that they would support the Government in every way possible
toward accomplishing this aim.
Throughout the whole history of the movement, Penn State has
held a commanding position and has been a leader at all times. She
assumed the leadership of all the colleges and universities of Penn
sylvania and much of the plan of procedure followed by the move
ment originated with the Penn State representatives.
COOD LUCK TO ALL
Tomorrow will witness a number of crucial contests for the
athletic teams. When the basketball team lines up against Creighton
University. one of the strongest teams in the middle west, and when
the wrestlers test their brawn with Indiana, the champions of their
sectional conference. and when the boxers face their old opponents
the Navy, tomorrow, they will be called on to put up the best that
is in them if Venn State is to merge front the fray victorious. Even if
we are not so fortunate as to win all these struggles, we are assured
of the best efforts of the contestants.
During the past few weeks, the student body has experienced a
sensation seldom felt by a Penn State student body. Instead of an
unbroken chain of victories being gained by our athletes, we have
suffered not a few defeats.
The time that support from the student body is needed most is
not in the Hush of victory but during a slump, during the time when
Prospects do not appear so bright. Then comes the chance for the
students to show their faith in their representatives and offer the
greatest support. Rally round the teams, men, and we will bring
hack the winning habit.
Another activity• which must not be forgotten is the Glee Club,
which takes part in the Intercollegiate Glee Club Contest tomorrow
against such worthy competitors as Harvard, Princeton, Columbia,
Amherst. Penn. Yale. and Wesleyan. To our singers, too, we offer
our best wishes for success.

FAILURES SHOW ACCURACY
OF INTELLIGENCE TESTS
According to an announcement made
recently by Dean Stoddart of the Litt
oral Arts School, seventy percent of the
atudents who failed this year were be•
hoe the average in theft• intelligence ex
aminations. Snob a big average indi
cates conclusively the accuracy of the
intelligence tests.
Tests have proven their use in many
ways sin, their introduetion at this
Institution and have been a valuable
:lid to Dean Stodilart. If a student is
below at the end of the first eight
weeks, his record in the intelligence test
is looked up and if he passed the test
, hsily, the authorities feel that the stu
dent Just needs a stimulus of some na
ture. Itut. on the other hand. if the
student failed in the test. there Is an in
dication that he is carrying ton much
work and he must he treated according
ly. According to the Dean. there is ac..
reason why t person, who makes a
high grade In the Intelligence tests.
cannot make A's and It's In his soh.'
work.
The tests serve too in helping the
schools deckle whether it Is advisable
for a man to change his course. If a
person wishes to change from the En
gineering or Natural Sctcnee Schools,
his Intelligence test is looked up and
lie has a good mark In it. it is quite
likely that he has difficulty with chem
istry or mathematics and would fit in
the Liberal Arts School. lie is there
fore transferred to the school In which
he trill best fit.
