A SUGGESTION Although only three weeks have passed since the opening of the college term, yet students and organizations are beginning to look for ward to the first notable social affair on the Penn State calendar. But five weeks remain and Pennsylvania Day will claim the attention of all friends of the college and the Nittany hospitality will be tested. Pennsylvania Day is generally regarded as a week-end set aside for the entertainment of guests and incidentally, it has been used to show visitors the campus and buildings. In a very few of the de partments, exhibits have been prepared to give some insight into the work of the school or department concerned. Without doubt, this is a good idea. There are many citizens of the commonwealth, wholly un acquainted with their state college and its functioning. Many of them are parents who visit their sons and daughters at this time of | the year. Invariably they are taken on a tour of inspection. With such an opportunity presented, why do not the various departments of the different schools prepare interesting exhibits to illustrate the work carried on by that department- What would be of more interest to a visitor than to see an exhibit of this kind? The School of Agriculture has not been backward in realizing the advantages thus offered, and much time and labor is spent each year in preparing for Pennsylvania Day. The annual stock parade on New Beaver Field on Saturday afternoon may be mentioned as a characteristic example. , The other schools would do well to follow the example set by the Ags. Guests of the college and visitors would enjoy an engineering exhibit or a forestry display as much as one concerned with Dairy or Animal HAandry. A presentation of some kind by each department of each school would transform the campus into a world of wonders and mysteries which would provide no little amount of entertain ment to all sight-seers. But what is just as important, the college would benefit to a great degree. Each visitor would gain a true con ception of Penn State and what it is doing; he would be t initiated into the serious part of collegiate work; and he might be impressed by the claims of the institution to rank with the best of the country, if only the necessary financial support of the state is forthcoming. Let us think this over. THE CHEERING IS BETTER The cheering at the football contest last Saturday afternoon and at the mass meeting the previous night, showed a marked improve ment over the feeble attempts of the proceeding week. But there is still room for improvement. Slower rhythm made the locomotive yell so much more attractive and pleasing that one could hardly associate it with the same yell given earlier in the season. But the technique of yelling is still foreign to most of the students it seems. The tend ency to slur and drag out the syllables instead of cutting them short to produce a snappy effect should be discouraged. Efforts should be made to get some semblancce of unity so that the entire group starts at one time and at the beginning of the yell. When only a small part of those cheering start a yell and the remainder join when the cheering is well started, the result is far from satisfactory. Work on the part of the cheering staff and cooperation on the part of the student body should eliminate this complaint. The cheerleaders can explain the proper way to give each cheer but thev must have the support of the students to effect a change for the better. THE TOWN ORCHESTRAS Following the action of the interfraternity council in limiting the prices to be paid the orchestras of the town for dance music, the orchestra men have decided to agree to the price set. They are to be commended for this. Both parties would have been affected if the musicians had refused to accept the offer of the fraternities. is, peace reigns once more, dances arc being staged, and everyone is apparently enjoying himself. THE STUDENT CAMPAIGN Headquarters for the Student Campaign made announcement at the end of the week that the students had subscribed over one hun dred and seventy-five thousand dollars to the Health and Welfare movement. But this amount is far under the goal set and so it has been decided to continue the dri v e for subscriptions over for a few more days in order that the canvassers may be given time to see each man enrolled. Up to the present time, the difficulty has not been in convincing a man of his duty but in getting around to see each man. There is not one argument that a student can present for not signing one hundred dollars over to his Alma Mater which will stand the test of logic or gratitude. And those in charge of the campaign have proudly announced that there arc only a very few of those who have been approached and who have refused to come to the aid of Penn State. Student Council has had a problem to face in the disorganization of the Freshmen class. The other three regular classes and the Two year Ags were well organized at the beginning of the year and little trouble was experienced in canvassing these. The Ags forged ahead of all other classes during the early part of the student drive and rc remaind in the forefront during the week although the Senior thermo meter rose to seventy percent. The Freshman mercury hovered around ten and fifteen percent until Saturday afternoon. At that time, the members of the 1926 class were approached at the football game and the response was generous to such an extent that fifty percent was attained. At the present time, the goat is still wearing Freshmen colors. The Senior class should be the first to attain its goal of one hun dred percent as an example for others to follow. No let-up should mark the prosecution of the campaign among the other classes. The three hundred thousand dollar mark is in sight and by postponing the close of the drive chould be obtained. The Junior class should not allow itself to be outdone by the low- K.1i1..! -in-Ui. Managing Edi ..Managing Ivlin Assistant Editor Mis.-: S. K. Croll. Jhisimss Malta:;. ! Al.

The junior Inher ited the unwelcome beast when they loafed into last place in the student ••nmpnign. The two year ags must have hail some sad experience with goats. Else why would they scorn the animal and tight with the seniors for first place and the pussesion of the Hon. We cheered the sophs when they pulled oil' their stunt at the football game Saturday. With their paper hats, canes and colors they didn't look like the same class, so we cheered all tile louder. Those second year men have an eye for economy. When they didn't win the football scrap last fall we understood they saved their canes to use for last Saturday's affair. No "cow college" stuff for the juniors. x\H dressed in white at the game, they looked like all-college boys. But like nil-college boys, they didn’t] do anything. Their stunt consisted In! shpwing as much originality as the av- 1 cragc short horn. There might he some excuse for the freshman class, with no organization, to hold the last place in the student campaign, but when the juniors drift into It there must he something wrong. Our NUlany Lion should strike terror Into tin; hearts of our opponents. With that tVro.-lous animal hacking the team, we ought to get the lion’s share. Bandmaster Thompson's 'P. S. O. .Marco" made a hit with us. Our ••al lege singing Itas never been what it should be. hut we think that it should improve with the new arrangement of "Victory" and "Hail to the Lion”. We have dope that we’re going to have another "All-American Hand'' this year. Spurt writers .at the big games gave the Penn State band that title last year and wo understand that this year's organization is going to bo even better than its predecessor. We used to talk about the weather when wo had nothing else to say. Now it’s a matter of uncommon interest with! the present dry spell. The freshmen: didn't pray hard enough for rain at the beginning of the year. The shoe shining parlor should be do ing a lot of business or none just now. With so much dust, the hoys are either getting dally shines or have given it up as useless. Ever since wc wore freshmen, ifre have stumbled up that back path run ning from McAllister St. at College Avenue to Old Main and every time we go up we wonder why It isn’t repaired. We have skinned our shoes and turned our tinkles on the rough stones when it wsis nice and waded through the mud when it wasn’t. Somo cinders put there would be appreciated by all using that path. The volume of cheering Improved unite retnakahly last Saturday. We would now suggest that efforts be made to have the students on the new stands keep together.
