ON THE STARTING LINE
Next Mondav mornng the whistle will blow for the start of one
of the biggest races that the college has ever witnessed, a race that
means much to the future welfare oi Penn State, a test that wt
determine the right of the Lion to roar with the best of them. ill
Penn State come through? For in truth, the student d.rve as a
part of the two million dollar campaign is a race with time to get
one hundred dollars subscribed by each student before the opening
of the state-wide drive- Never before in the history of the Nittany
institution has the loyalty of each student and the financial aid of
each friend been more urgently needed
Consider carefully local history for the past few years. The
failure oi the state legislature to provide sufficient funds to meet
the state educational demands expressed in the growing list of appli
cants for admission was responsible for the conviction that Penn
State should be the head of the state educational system. To per
form this function properly it would have to be a great university
of high standing capable of accomodating ten thousand students,
immediately those interested in the college started work on this
enormous project with the result that, in a short time, plans have
been drawn up and a definite conception gained of what the college
should be. Then followed the work of organizing for a great two
million dollar campaign the proceeds of which to be devoted to the
erection of only those buildings that will serve the welfare and
health of the student body. If this campaign is successful, it may
reasonably be expected that the voice of the state citizenry will
command’ the state legislature to appropriate enough funds to
provide for an adequate growth in academic accomodations.
The main campaign started after a preparatory period of pub
licity and since then the potato growers and poultrymen of the com
monwealth have pledged most generous gifts. The faculty of the
college have set a goal of one hundred percent partcipation and
have already pledged fifty thousand dollars. The student drive
with a goal of a hundred thousand dollars follows the faculty
drive and immediately precedes the last and chief drive among the
voting population. If the students are as generous and as loyal as
these other bodies, a most valuable and powerful advertising med
ium will have been created and the outcome of the campaign is
practically assured. If the students fail Penn State in its hour of
need, the remainder of the campaign may be doomed to an inglori
ous end. The student drive is the climax of the play, it is the last
lay of the race for existence. It is the fourth down with but three
to go. Let's go.
A DISAPPOINTMENT
It seems to be the sentiment of some on the campus that Stunt
Night was a failure and a disappointment from the standpoint of
the student body. The feeling of remorse that is liable to crop up
at this time should be combated by tKe loyal Penn State spirit.
Here is an opportunity to learn if that wonderful old spirit remains.
Poster Night has been a failure for the last three years. It
has been an excuse for wholesale destruction of property and for
injury of several students. It was transformed into a weiner roast
and a fraud, with little resemblance to that old time celebration
which the alumni delight in remembering. Poster Night fell into
disgrace and it had to go. It could not keep pace with the growth
of the college and of the times. It was weighed in the balance and
found wanting.
As representatives of the student body, the Student Council
members realized these facts and planned a substitute. Much
work and careful planning produced a custom that seemed to have
ail those desirable characteristics marking a good, active class scrap,
All undesirable features were omitted. The planning of the details
was left to the Sophomore class.
Student Council is to be commended for its action. It kept
faith with its constituency and at the time made sure that no acci
dent would happen during the celebration which might tend to les
sen the chances of success of the Welfare Campaign.
If the individual is not satisfied with the substitution, he has
no one to blame but himself. A new idea always needs unstinted
support to be a success at the first trial. Co-operation was lacking
on Stunt Night. But, even at that, it was better than inviting the
freshmen to a picnic in the country and feeding them refreshments
of some kind after that strenuous walk of a few miles.
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS A MAN
At Tirst it seems to the average person, that Campaign Head
quarters is asking an unreasonable sum in the student drive that is
beginning next Monday. But review the facts of the case.
Three hundred thousand dollars is needed to remodel Old Main
into the Penn State Union, a social center on the campus to be used
by student clubs and other organizations. In years past, it has
been the custom for the next outgoing Senior Class to give a Sen
ior Memorial and generally it was the case that each Senior was
asked to contribute one hundred dollars to the cause. The college
authorities have publicly assured the present student body that,
since this drive contribution is supposed to take the place of the
Senior Memorial, no graduating class for the next four years will
be asked or expected to leave a Senior Memorial. When the Penn
State Union is an established building on the campus, various parts
will be designated as the Memorial of each of the four classes now
in college. In other words, this hundred dollar contribution is but
an advanced payment on the Senior Memorial.
Payments are made easy through the medium of the note plan
and of the time allotments granted. The present Senior class has
three years after graduation in which to pay, the Juniors have four
years, the Sophoinoies have five years, and the Frosh have six years
in which to make their payments. 1
Also, the college officials have assured the student body that
Student Council will be asked to prohibit the running of any cam
paign except that of the Y. M. C. A.
The success of the entire campaign undoubtedly rests upon the
response of the students. Penn State needs the financial support
j 3 each of its friends and it looks to the individual student as the
greatest of these. The path of duty is clearly'defined. What are

meeting for the college year in Room
200. Engineering D, lasi Tuesday even

, ihe School of Engineering spoke on
"The American Society and What it
Means to the Engineer."
Dean Sacked sj>oke of the great im • j
portance and value to the student of ,
membership in this society, which is the
oldest of the American Engineering or
ganizations. The Society was founded
in ISO 2 and has an enviable reputation
for high ethical standards.. The tech

the most important in its line, while the
friendships which one makes at its
meetings and conventions often prov
invaluable.
