PENN STATE GRADUATES
HELP IN SWINE SURVEY
State Dept. of Agriculture Fin
ishes Enumeration of Hogs
In Pennsylvania
Former Penn State students took an
active part as swine enumerators in
the recent survey of the swine industry
conducted by the State Department of
Agriculture. The state, feeling the need
of trained men. called upon Penn State
graduates for aid in collecting the data.
John S. Deck. ’H>. engaged in fann
ing in Centre County, was swine enu
merator in Centre. Huntingdon, MiHlin
and Clinton Counties. C. Randolph
Kahler, ’2l. who is engaged in swine
raising in Lycoming County, covered
j.ycoming and .Sullivan Counties. Som
erset and Bedford Counties were sur
veyed by James F. Keim, ’22, who will
enter the University of Minnesota this
fall to work for a Master’s degree, and
E. J- Kirseh *23. surveyed Cambria
County during the summer before re
turning to Penn State where he is a
student this year. D. L. Metzger, ’H
a breeder of Berkshire hogs, covered
Uncaster ami Berks Comities, while
Mercer County was developed by Mer
rill P- Tail. ’22, who is engaged In
fanning and stock raising. S. R. Hug.
•17, Secretary of the Comity
Hampshire Swine .Association, covered
Lancaster. Franklin and Cumberland
Counties. W. 11. Smodley. 'IS. a breeder
of Berkshire hogs and .Southdown sheep,
was enumerator in Chester. Delaware
and Montgomery Counties.
YEARLINGS IMPROVE
IN DAILY SCRIMMAGE
(Continued from first page)
though they cun give Penn Stute a dem
onstration of execeptlonai football, the
coach Is not satis tied with the progress
that Is being made, for the Freshman
team fuces a harder schedule than ov
er'this year, and he will not be satisfied
until the squad gets into such shupe
that they will be able to compete favor
ably with the teams from Dartmouth,
University of Pittsburg and Syracuse.
Men Have Speed mid Weight
One of the most important advantag
es which the yearling candidates have
is that of speed ami weight both in the
line and kickfield positions. Serimmago
shows several backileld men who are
taprovlng dally in running with the
hall. Their speed aids in carrying them
past the tackles and the weight of some
of the linemen and baokfielders Is used
to advantage in opening holes in the
line and offering interference. The
greatest ditllculty which now must be
eliminated before further advance can
be made is that of knowing every move
ment of the play. The inexperience of
the Frosh in handling the plays often
causes them to take a wrong move
ment which muffs the purpose of the
play. -
DR. .N. S. BEACH COMPILES
NEW BOTANY BULLETIN
, A bulletin dealing with the diseases
of- rhubarb, encountered in this region
has been compiled by Dr. X. S. Beach
of-the Botany Department, and will be
ready for distribution sometime this
month. One of the principal problems
handled in the new bulletin is the rhu
barb blight affecting the crown of the
roots. The comprehensive treatment
accorded the problem in the new bulle
tin, and the control measures suggested,
trill be of great value, promoting the
rhubarb Industry, which already has
become quite prominent in some, sec
tions of the state.
In preparing the now bulletin, Dr.
Beach spent considerable time in inves
tigatlon.,work at the experimental field
at Busaeltown, near Philadelphia, which
itation is in the heart of one of the
leading rhubarb producing regions of
Pennsylvania.

LIBRARY DEPARTMENT
CONTEMPLATES CHANGE
In view of the tact that the library
facilities are being dally taxed to ca
ipaclty a change In ono department Is
being considered.
With the hundreds of volumes now
•listed on the reserve shelves It is al
most impossible for the librarian and
assistants to properly take care of the
work. Should the reserve list of books
be placed in an easily accessible place,
the only feasible one being the base
ment of the library building, and to be
conducted on a serve-self basis, the
work and confusion during-the busiest
hours of the day would be greatly re
duced.
This plan is being considered by Dr.
E. W. Runkle. Whether or not it will
bo adopted depends largely on the re
sult of further investigation.
BAND LEADER AND DRUM
MAJOR ARE GIVEN RANKS
With seventy-five former band mem
bers back from last year the prospects
for a high class band seem assured. The
first try-outs for. new members were
held Wednesday night in the band room
when a good representation of first year
men qualified for a trial with the col
lege's popular musical organization.
With the augmented supply-of mater
ial now on hand it is likely that a play
ing unit of at least ono hundred twenty
five pieces will be on hand for the fes
tive occasions this year.
To date only two commissions have
been decided upon: G. B. Lane *23 will
be band leader and will have the rank
of Captain; W. J. Deever will be drum
major and will have the rank of First
Lieutenant. The. other officers and ap
pointments will be determined at the
first meeting of the band.
