coinage of participation to second place
in the class list. When the llnal re
turns had been reported Saturday even
ing. the 1924 men had a participation of
eighty-three percent ami a total of;
$47,350 was turned over to the campaign
headquarters in junior class pledges.
The sternly rise of tho Junior percent
age is Jargeiy due to the success of tho
idea of dividing the class into schools,
and the ultimate canvassing of the
schools as n whole rather than as in
dividuals. Tho canvassers for each
group were chosen from that group it
self and thus it was found possible to
stir up a feeling of rivalry among the
schools, as well as among the various
classes.
Although the two-year ags succeeded,
in'holding the top place on the class
thermometers for the first few days of
tho drive, they were forced to drop back
to the third place when the final check
ing was done last week. The short
course students did. however, succeed
in getting an eighty-two per cent par

LEHIGH ROOTERS
TIE PENN STATE
Largest Crowd in Penn State’s
Soccer History Witnesses
First Game of Season
BLUE AND WHITE TEAM
PLAYS SYRACUSE NEX’i
Although the tie score resulting from
the Lehigh-Penn State soccer game
seems to denote a rather inauspicious
opening for the 1922 season, tho con
test served to crystallize several points
in regard to the sport ami to the team
itself. It was observed that associa
tion football is becoming increasingly
popular at Bonn State since the largest
crowd In the history of the sport, at
this Institution, turned out to witness
tiie contest. Also, the members of the
team were enabled to see the Haws that
must be eradicated before the next en
counter. which Is with Syracuse, two
weeks hence.
I.chigh First to Score
The game began with Lehigh receiv
ing, and Edgerton made a perfect run 1
down the field, under Warner’s long,
slow kick, but on reaching tho ball,
failure to properly center prevented
hla scoring. In a similar manner tho
Bluo and White forwards missed sev
eral excellent opportunities to score,
through lack of centering ability and
because of the fact that instead of re
sorting to short passes when running
the ball down the Held, they would at
tempt long shots which were poorly
controlled. Three opportunities to
shoot the ball into tho Lehigh goal were
missed in the first five minutes of play.
Although the Xittany aggrcgtlon
seemed to exhibit more aggressiveness,
alertness and a better defense, than did
Lehigh, yet the latter made up for this
to a great extent by teamwork, which
was noticeably lacking among the for
wards on the Penn State squd.
The Blue and White haifbncks played
a good game, Binns, especially display
ing a steady, almost faultless brand of
soccer. Captain Harral and “Andy”
Warner also gave good account of
themselves. The latter did some very
skillful headwork and proved to be quite
an obstacle to the Bethlehem players
in their attempts to run the ball, but he
played over too much of the field. Har
ral’s booting was good and he used it
with marked effect several times when
breaking up ntteks.
Longhurst, at goal, had to handle the
lmll but a few times, thanks to the good
defense put up by the fullbacks and
halfbacks. His kicking was good and
his guarding efficient since their was no
chance to save on the on goal scored
against him. Shair and McVaugh at
the fullback positions played better
than hd been expected of them, al
though their kicking can be improved.
The one point scored by the Bethle
hem team was made toward the end of
the first half. A rather strong wind
„lmd been blowing down the field directly
toward the PPenn State goal all through
the first half, and this interfered consid
erably with the booting, making it diffi
cult to control the shots. By the end of
| the first half, however, the wind had
shifted so that It was blowing across
the field, and any hope the Nlttanyites
might have entertained of using It to
advantage during the second half was
lost.

Gaul scored the only tally for the
Xittany Lion In the second half, and
was shortly after replaced by Neale,
because of an injury which prevented

PLANS ARE MADE
FOR ALUMNI DAY
Old Grads Expected to Return in
Large Numbers for Annual
Homecoming Event
PROGRAM FOR A FULL
DAY IS COMPLETED
Stale College will be crowded with
alumni, back for tiie annual Home
Coming celebration on Saturday, Octo
ber twenty-first. A large number of
the “old grads” aro expected, and with
the full program that has heen arrang
ed, it is expected that Alumni Day will
lie a greater success this year than it
has ever heen since its inauguration
throe years ago. Mass meetings, smok
ers and the football game wifi provide
plenty of entertainment for the visit
ors until the smoker on Saturday night
concludes tho celebration.
A footlsUl mass meeting in the Audi
torium, Friday evening wifi start the
celebration. With the songs ami cheers
of Penn State thundering through the
Auditorium, the "grads" will again feel
the thrill of the old school spirit.
•'Proxy” Thomas will speak of the Cam
paign and “Bex” and the team will be
present to talk football.
On Saturday morning a booster meet
ing for tho Campaign will bo held in
the Auditorium and all the alumni arc
Ji’geU to attend. George H. Dleke, ’O3,
President of the Alumni Association
and chairman of the Campaign, will pre
side at the meeting and President Thom
as wifi give a report on the progress of
the campaign. The campaign chairmen
of tiie various counties .will meet at
twelve-thirty for luncheon and will dis
cuss methods of pushing the campaign
in the sections that have been slow to
respond.
The main event of the, day will take
place at two-thirty when Penn State
meets Middlebury College on the foot
ball field. From the rumors that have
been circulating about the campus, the
frosh will be present in the poverty
stricken condition that has marked their
appearance on Alumni Day for the last
two years.
The day will be brought to a close by
a smoker and reunion of the Alumni
to he held in the Armory at a quarter
after eight. There will bo plenty of
cider and pretzels in addition to the
usual smokes. At the same time a r
ceptlon will be given hy the women stu
dents for the alumnae in the Women's
Building.
PENN STATE PLAYERS
PLAN FIRST OFFERING
“AliceSit-By-The-Fire” Will Be
Initial Production-Cast
Has Been Chosen
Evidently tho Penn State Players sire
furnishing real competition to the pro
fessional 'theatres for the producers
have refused their consent to allow the
Penn State actors to give “Mr. Pim
Passes By”. Their argument is that
tho play is still being given on the road
and until tho run Is over the play will
not be available. Instead of the Milne
play, The Penn State Players have de
cided on J. M. Barrie’s whimsical com
edy, "Allce-Sit-By-The-Firo”.
Last year the Players decided to
give this play in April, but the Froh
man’s made the same objection. After
much correspondence, however, permis
sion was granted for a performance at
State College.
“Alico-Slt-By-The-Fire" Is in Barrio’s
best style, brimful of subtle humor. Tho
many extremely funny situations and
the clever dialogue make it a very pop
ular play. Barrie is one of the most pro
lific of modern playwrights. During the
past two decades he has had success
fully produced: “The Little Minister",
"Peter Pan”, and “A Kiss for Cinderel
la”. In these plays Maude Adams played
the leading roles. He has also written
“Quality Street", "The Admirable Critch
ton", “What Everywomnn Knows", and
"Mary Rose", which was produced last
year with Ruth Chatterton in the title
role. “Alice-Slt-By-The-Firo” had a
long and successful run with Alice Bar
rymore playing the part of "Alice'.
The cast for the play has bceen chos
en with a great deal of care and de
libertion and represents the best of al
most two hundred aspirants. Active
rehearsing began on Monday nnd will

“Y” MAKES PLANS
FOR CARRYING ON
NECESSARY WORK
Committee of One Hundred and
Fifty Men Meet Next
Week for Plans
ORGANIZATION NOW HAS
FOREIGN MISSION DEFICIT
Pledge System Will Be Used in
Finaneing Annual Project
on Monthly Basis
Deriding to make it a Greater Penn
Statu movement in every branch of
College activity, the Penn State Y. M.
C. A. has made plans for a committee
meeting of one hundred and fifty men
next week at the University Club, At
that time the annual obligations of the
'• M. L\ A. will he discussed and steps
taken to arrange for solieitations among
the students devolved upon the local
hranch.
'Phis movement as it has been out
dned consists of a community chest
plan ami is to lie the only one of this
kind of year. Thu specified sum has been
divided into two branches, one for lo
cal use consisting of five thousand dol
lars, and the other for Penn Statu ru
ilet in Kux.s:n which will consume the
remainder of the total to be achieved.
Considerable work and erfort has been
put forth to obtain a fundamental basis
on which to work, it has been prao
lically decided, however, to conduct the
finaneing of tills project by means of
pledge forms similar to those used by
tlie building fund campaign, in this
way it will not lie necessary for liaise
who subscribe to make any unusual of
iort to meet their subscriptions, in
former years it was customary for all
subscriptions to be paid at one time;
this year, however, they may be paid
"it monthly installments. This plan
was adopted only after the opinions of
members from various schools hud been
obtained find it should in all events
prove successful.
-Much depends upon the success of this
attempt by the Y. M. C. A. to meet Us
financial obligation, for they are obli
gations which have been assumed by
both the “Y" and the student body of
I’o'nn HtMe.One of these, the most dis
tressing one. is the two thousand dollar
deficit on the Penn Shite .Mission to
Chinn, which must also be met by the
local Y. M. C. A. before it can plan for
very extensive entertainment at home.
It is a service which must tie rendered
to those who have taken the promise
of Pcnu State students to heart, and
who lully believe that they shall not
oe lelt unattended. To graduate men
in the spirit of service, rather than in
the spirit of .selfishness, is the aim of
the Y. M. C. A.
Looking hack upon the scope of the
work which has been accomplished by
•V" service, any student can readily
see wherein some support is vitally
needed at this time. To the entertain
ment program which has been scheduled
uied for this year can lie added the num
erous I roe lecture!*, movie programs and
additional services which are rendered
every day of the week. The "Y* 1 docs
not ask that the student body support
these various issues with individual
paid admissions, hut that they donate
to one general fund to lie used for
bringing these attractions to the stu
dents. The expenses connected with
tlie speakers brought into Penn State by
the Association for this and tlie sec
ond semester. will lie largely covered
by Hie associations own resources.
The future success of the Y. M. C. A.
activities at Penn State, therefore, de
pends upon the support which the stu
dents give this single enterprise for
finances. It will bo the only one of its
kind during llit* year and will not exact
.any unreasonable amount from the in
dividual student. It must lie supported,
however, for the Association is the only
means of connection which tlie College
has with its foreign missionary work
in China and Russia, and in that field
It dare not fail.

YEARLING TEAM UNABLE
TO MAINTAIN TEAMWORK
Unable to maintain their organiza
tion ami teamwork after a flying start,
the Ultio and White freshmen wore
crushed under the total of four touch
downs and a field goal made by the
strong Kiski eleven whom they opposed,
last Saturday on Kiski’s field. Follow
ing a rumble by one of the Penn State
freshmen, which resulted in Kiski's
first touchdown of the game, the Xit
tany yearlings seemed unable to re
gain their fighting power ami were
helpless in tlie faeo of numerous fum
bles on their part.
At the start of the contest, the pros
pects for a successful outcome of the
game seemed very good for tlie fresh
men. Carrying the hall, they started
off with a strong attack and pushed
across two first downs before losing
the ha!! to their opponents on a fumble.
i 1 rout that lime to the end of tlie game
iho Penn State representatives were un
able to get tmy nearer the goal line.than
tlie middle of tlie field. When they had
the hull in their possession, the team
lacked the ability to make first downs,
only three men showing any real ag
gressive football.
Tiie game started will* Kiski kicking
iff to the freshtnon. Immediately the
yearlings started up the field, showing
i good brand of gridiron ability. Two
-irst downs were made in quick sic
.'ossion when a fumble, the turning
I’oint of the game, wsis made by the
fii-st year men and recovered by a Kiski
•ml, who ran forty-five yards for the
first touchdown. An extra point was
i«l*led by a plncenjent kick.
The next scoring play by Kiski was
made in tile second quarter. Kiski re
covered the fumbled punt on the year
lings' twenty-five yard lino. On the
next play, the ball was run fourteen
yards around right end for the second
touchdown. An other placement kick
made the score 1-1-0 for Kiski.
During the third period the ball was
exchanged several times, neither side
bi‘ing aide to cross the goal line. Tlie
most sensational run of the entire
game was made in the last quarter
Arnos, the veteran Kiski backfioldcr, re
covered a fumbled punt and ran sixty
yards down the field through the fresh
man cloven for the third touchdown. A
fourth scoring play was made by the
freshmen's opponents when Amos pass

twenty-seventh Is a girl whistler. It is
not generally known around college that
one of tlie co-eds lias considerable a
b!P*.y in that line, but such is the case
and she will appear in one or two acts
that evening.
Among the men performers are live
bays from the freshman class, several
of whom are accomplished musicians.
Ilayl. who is an instructor in violin In
tlie Department of Music, will appear
in public for the first time on that
evening’s program. Smith is a skilled!
performer of Zez Confrey’s composi
tions. and Taylor can rag classical and
seml-popular music in a most ludicrous
fashion.
In their novelty dance act, Stanley.
King, and Smith will present throe dis
tinctly contrasted numbers. There will
be an aesthetic dance, a modern dance,
and an adaptation of the French Apache
dance. Several of the actors have ap
peared here previously in theatrical
productions but they will surprise theiri
admirers by taking new ami entirely
different roles in the lighter-vein pro
duction. A few of the actors who have
distinguished themselves in the serious
drama, show noteworthy versatility in
their success in portraying farce.
Public opinion around campus has

In order to further the advance of the

drive for needed buildings on the camp
us. a radio broadcasting station will be
installed soon by which progress of the
campaign and other details of the drive
will be heard by radio fans throughout
the country. This new means of pub
licity for the college will be sure to
attract wide-spread interest in its
ertorts for the necessary building means.
Through the generosity of Penn State
alumni in Pittsburgh, broadcasting e
quipment lias been supplied for the col
lege wireless station, anti as soon as the
balance of the material arrives, is set up.
and tested, regular broadcasting pro
games will be given five nights a week.
This station will be the only one of its
kind between KDA in Pittsburgh and
the Wanamaker station in Philadelphia,
and its value to the college and its
many friends cannot be estimated at
tills time.
The equipment has been shipped from
Pittsburgh and a new wireless station
back of the University Club is being
made ready for it. The present steel
tower at the wireless station is unsuitvd
for radio broadcasting purposes, and
three new wooden towers are to bo e
rected with a speed form of antennae.

enough for the entire Glee Club or simi

scores of faculty members on special

State broadcasting program. The de
tails for possible programs have not yet
been worked out, and the possibilities
are so great that it is impossildc to

is practically unlimited. Tlie college
Department of Public Information (for
