DATE IS CHANGED
FOR OBSERVANCE
OF FATHER'S DAY
Change in Date Will Not Affect
Work of Committee—Publicity _
Campaign Started
CARNEGIE TECH NINE
ON WEEK-END PROGRAM
President Thomas May Hold Short
Business Session for Dads
on Saturday Forenoon
Waiting for the decision of the Stu
dent Council In reference to changing
the date the committee appointed to
have charge of the observance of Pa
ther's Day was unable to take any def
inite step in continuing the stork that
was started one week Imo Instead the
aeek was utilised to strengthen the ar
rangements that lime been already
made, which were not altered by the
change of date, and to act on sugges
tions that had not been considered I
previously
The program for the week-end chat,
acterlzed by the Father's Day obsery
once will depend much upon the Preed
dent of the college since It was fell
that the fathers would be pleased to
meet the head of the Nittanv institu
tion Due to the fact that Dr. Thomas
must speak before out-of-town audien
ces on the date previously set for this
event, it would be impossible for him
to be at State College on May slath and
therefore the committee made a recom
mendation to the Student Commll Lb/41
the date be changed to May twentieth
This recommendation was made In view
of the fact that May twentieth is the
only other Saturday that would be suit
able and desirable to reserve for the
fathers
Prop= In Unchanged
The program for the week-end will
remain virtually unchanged even though
the date has been changed Some of
the fathers will undoubtedly arrive at
the college on the Friday of that week
but no schedule of events will be made
- for .that day Friday atternaon - and
Friday night may be used hy the fa
thers to enjoy with their sons „.
Saturday profnisei; to
he a busy day
Ill'for with — thiffltit
class in the morning, the Dads will be
invited to attend recitations with their
sons and thus they will be given an in
sight into the actual operation of Penn
State Sometimes during the morning,
the Dads will be invited to attend n
short business session at which Dr
- Thomas will be the main speaker The
main purpose of the meeting will he to
inform the fathers of the plans of the
college in waging its erualialgn for re
cognition as a state university and to
consider some means of forming a tie
between the fathers of Penn State stu
dents.
In the afternoon, the main attraction
will be the baseball game betneen the
nines representing Penn State and Car
niogle Tech Thin contest should have
no little influence in getting Dad's con
sent to visit the college since the Hans
Wagner of national fame will probably
appear on the diamond with hie pro
teges
The night will he ditided betbeen a
masts meeting to be held in the Audi
torium and a smoker to be given later In
the Armory The sub-committee that
Is making the arrangements for the
mass meeting have agreed upon a ten
tative program that may be changed in
some minor detail later but which
should prove to be interesting in the ex
treme The College Band and the Var
sity Quartet will be called upon to ren
der selections during the meeting Pres
ident Thomas will welcome the fathers
to Penn State, to which will respond
some father who will have been select
ed to represent the Dads Coach Hugo
Bezdek has consented to be a speaker
on the program and he might later he
persuaded to tell a baseball story The
smoker that Is to be given Immediately
after the mass meeting will take place
in the Armory and will be characterized
by a Program under the auspices of the
Penn, State Club The details to this
program has not yet been worked out
but It is probable that one or two
speakers, a play, or BOMO athletic at
traction will serve to entertain the
guests.
A letter will be sent out by the pub
licity sub-committee In near future to
nil of the fraternities, clubs and board
ing houses In the town advising thorn
of the plane of the committee This
letter will contain the latest informa
tion In regard to the event and will re
quest the co-operation of all in malt
ing this Father's Day the biggest ono
that the college has ever enjoyed

Due to the fact that President
Thomas will not be able to be at the

knonn that the President is very
much interested In the success of the

fit by the opportunity given to meet
the fathers of Penn State students
Many of the fathers are coming to
Penn State influenced by the promise
that they alit be given an oppottunity
of meeting the President To add to
this desire an the part of the fathers,
the cominittee in charge had arranged
for an Informal teception in the foam of
smoker to be held in the armory on
the Saturday night of that neck and
had also planned to hate a short busi

President Thomas would explain the

have on the educational *stem of the
