“1000 Student-Workers to Bring

of Campaign Volunteers
EXTRA EASTER RECESS

Lack of Actual Workers to Sol

standing Feature
* A very critical stage in the emergency
building fund campaign ' has been
reached, and word comes from the head
quarters that "campaign -workers are
needed for very important work during
the Christmas holidays "
If the slogan “flOOO,student workers
for Penn State to bring back $lOOO
each" is. carried out the campaign sues
cess Is assured.
Professor Espenshado, vice-director
of the campaign, who originated the
plan, is enthusiastic over the prospects
>of possible-results from this feature of
the campaign, which is looked upon as
a necessity for ultimate success in the
drive -
The outstanding feature of recent
- campaign developments has been the
lack of* actual workers in the field to
-'solicit subscriptions .from people who
are known to be willing,to give if only
•> some one can be aecured^to'solicit -As
a rule it has^been,found that alumni
- are so securcly„tied to.thdr.occupations
. .as to grant them little time for actual
' canvassing. „ ....
This condition has indicated that the
quickest way out of the diillculty is to
secure as many students and faculty
members as possible to spend a littlo
time while home for Christmas vacation

FIRST GAME IS ON
DECEMBER FOURTEENTH
With but a little more than two
weeks remaining until the first basket
ball clash of the 1923 season with Jun
iata, Coach Herman Is trying out ev
ery one. of hla. large number of varsity
candidates, in nightly workouts before
even* a .permanent toom Is considered.
Each night the coach is trying all pos
sible combinatons before deciding who
shall represent the Blue and White on
the basketball courts
Much Good Material
With tho large amount of dependable
material on hand this season, both from
fast year’s varsity nnd freshman squads,
Coach Hermann will not have such a
dlillcult problem to solve as he faced
last year. For the nucleus on which to
build his quintet, "Dutch” has Sbalr
‘23, who played regular center last jeor,
Captain Koehler ’23, as star guard, Loo
nier ’24, another guard, and Johnny
Reed ’24, a flashy foiward Fixter ’24,
also of lost year’s squad, Is another
strong contender for the center posi
tion, WUson ’24, Shaner ’2s,'

Marshall *23 has been showing up well.
From tho playors on tho freshman
team last winter are soveral candidates
for varsity positions who are capable
of pushing the varsity squad members
to tho limit to retain their places, this
making tho final selection of a first team
all the more difficult. ,
FROSH DEFEATED IN
FIRST SAND SCRAP
Sophomores Score 157 Points to
115 By Yearlings in New
Scrap Saturday
Tho first annual sophomore-freshman
Sand Scrap which was contested last
Saturday afternoon, resulted in. a de-
cisive victory for the sophomores, and
demonstrated the new scrap os an able
successor to tho old pushball scrap of
yore Wlhen the final gun shot was
hoard, tho sophomores emerged, cold
and dusty, but happy victors to the
-tuno of 157 to the freshmen's tolly of
115 points
The scrap was run In five minute per
iods, with fifty men on each side, three
heats being run Saturday, although in
tho future, as many will be run, os
new men can be supplied from the op
posing sides. Tho contest was run on
the New Beaver football practice field,
twenty bogs of sand being placed on
the center lino of the field, and the con
testants lined up on the goal lines At
the .pistol shot both sides started off
towards tho center of the field, and en
deavored to bring hack as many bags of
sand to their own line as possible The
scrap contains moro real scrappy mo
ments than most of tho other sched
uled scraps, and should prove ’very
successful In future years
COLLEGE NEE!
It Is becoming apparent that if the work is to be started on a fine new gym
