The forestry students’ were divided into two camps, the Fresh men, about thirty in number, at Stone Volley and the Sophomores at Klngzu, near Warren, while the civil engineers located their camp at Lamar, Pa. Sit uated in the state forests, these camps gave the future foresters and engineers much practical experience and a taste of camp life. Freshman Foresters* Camp The camp in Stone Valley was pitched in the forests between the fifth and sixth mountains betweon State College and Lewtstown. The first year men ar rived about the middle of June and, as it was an entirely new site, were set to work under Professor Ferguson es tablishing the camp. A bridge was built over a small creek and a rough lumber road of about one hundred feet constructed. During the six weeks of the camp, the men gained practical experience In lumbering, estimating of timber, and identification of trees and forest con ditions. The State Foresters took charge for nine days and under their direction the Freshmen were put to work with pick and shovel on the new road for fire protection from Bohlsburg, across Seven Mountains and Bear Meadows into Stone Valley. Worse than the laborious work was an invas ion of the camp by insects known as "chlggers”. “Chtggers” are microscop ic splnders seldom found in the North that dig their way Into the flesh, caus ing a large swelling, and an itching worse than that of poison ivy. -A close second to the “chlggers" as pests were the snakes that infested the woods. Nino rattlesnakes and twenty copper heads were killed or captured alive. On several occasions the rattlesnakes were skinned and fried. Rattlesnake “steak" is a dish that is unknown to State College boarding houses so it. is interesting that the fellowß who ate We are ready to serve you with .

Ptvo.llnn the "steak" found it .to have ja sweet taste Very''similar to frogleg but with more bones than the average Sophomore Foreitere* Camp The Sophomore camp, located on the Allegheny River above Klngzu, was In the midst of one of the few remaining lumbering sections of the state, nils section has just been.opened and It Is estimated that it will probably last for eight or ten years so that & perman ent camp has been established there. Like the Freshmen,’ the Sophomores had their troubles for the woods about the camp were full of porcupines. One of their favorite outdoor sports was to arm themselves with dubs and hunt the prickly animals. The swimming was good and fish were plentiful In the streams about the camp. A two week's trip was taken into the woods to study logging operations and the logging mill of the Central Penn sylvania Lumber Company' at Kingsu was inspected. At the end of eight weeks the camp was disbanded and the men returned homo with new know ledge of and experience in the'woods. Several of the fellows' went down’ the Allegheny River to Pittsburg In' canoes, accomplishing the two hundred and fif ty mile trip in less than a week. Civil Engineers’ Camp The Sophomore Civil Engineers un der Professor O’Donnell arrived at their camp’ at Lamar, Pa, shortly after the close of college. During 1 the four weeks of the camp the men were drilled In topographic and hydrographic survey ing. Swimming and fishing were pop ular diversions with the clvlfe The ev enings were spent around’die camp fire, playing cards or commuting to T Haven or State College in an ancient Ford, belonging to one of the men. On July thirteenth a watermelon party and an all night session at cards brought the camp to a happy close."
