March first for the Installation of the officers selected at the last meeting and to plan social activities for the remaining months. At si recent meeting the following officers were elected: President, F. \V. Wnlp ’23: Vice President. L. 11. l-rfdio *23; Secretary, D. R. iCunkie ’24; Treasurer, if. M. Smith '24. These Dflicers are determined to make the Hub one of the live wire organizations on the Hill, and at the next meeting, when they will he installed, they plan to start the hall rolling. Sled loads nnd social meetings are a part of the program that has been mapped out thus far. The Clover Club is an organization of students'of the Agronomy Depart-. ,wnt of Penn Stale. Under the lead ership of last year’s officers the mem bers of the Clover Club, staged a grain show and grain judging contest, to ward tin* end of the year. In spite of the short time given the students, in which to secure samples of grain for exhibition, the show and contest were gralifyltigiy successful, and the Club intends to repeat the process next winter, this time giving all prospec tive participants plenty of opportuni ty to raise nr procure high class grain. The ultimate object that the Agrono my students have in mind is the spon soring of nn intercollegiate grain Chow and Judging contest at Penn State. This is; a common practice among many middle-western colleges, and would lie; a contest' simitar to that held at . Penn State last fall by the student* of the Department of Horti culture. YEARLING CAGERS TUNE UP FOR INDIANA NORMAL (continued from first page) working combination. Some construc tive work was done along this line but the players appeal 1 to have slumped considerably during the past week nnd do not seem able to hit their stride. McYlckers Out MeVickers, one of the most promising forwards on the freshman squad, is : tost to the team through his inability to keep up his scholastic standing. Servlck has taken his place at the for ward position In practice and bids fair to hold down the job in a cap able manner for the rest of the sea : son. The remainder of the team will lie .composed of the same players who I faced the Pitt cubs last Saturday nigbi at the start of the game. Hood, fresh man foul tosser, will occupy the oth er' fonvnrd berth with Richman and Dawson at the guard positions and Jarmolnwltz at center. The big Pas saic High boy has been doing better work In practice and should cause con siderable trouble tor the Indiana tos sers. Not much is known of the relative strength of the Normal school cagcrs and “Hinkle" Is taking no chances in grooming his men for the coming bat tie. Last year, it will lie remembered, the Indiana basketeer* furnished strong opposition for the Nittany cubs and the game tomorrow night will not be a walkaway by any means. All Footwear Reduced C. N.

ORCHESTRA WILL GIVE NEXT SUNDAY CONCERT (Continued from first page.) in Hie Auditorium, and also plays for the Thespians, both’at Penn State and •»n the .road. A concert at the Rock view Penitentiary is likewise an an event for the Orchestra. The existence of the Oivhes.ra a one of the live organizations of the campus is short. About nine year-- ugn it did not have a professional leadin’, and consisted of the student dance orchestras, playing under the supervision of a student lender. These orchestras mot together only once In a year, to play at cTimmencement. It was nine years ago that Band master- W. O. Thompson, the present leader of the Band nnd Orchestra, took Ivor the responsibility of getting to gether a real musical organization for Penn State. At the beginning the stu dent interest lagged, hut under the di rection of Mr. Thompson, the Orches tra grew until it'became the present large and capable organization.

Student Council did not expect the hearty response with which the "Spir it Week" idea was received by the student body and the fact that it was so heartily received shows that the students also realize the need for a radical restoration movement. It i* not intended thnt the idea shall die out with the end of the week, but timt it shall be continued for the vest of the year with the cooperation of each student.
