Tuesdays -March-ISy 1 1923 architects observe BEAUX ARTS CARNIVAL Theatrical Offerings Prove Suc cessful Introduction to Beaux Arts Carnival Opening with four one act plays In Englnwring F on Friday evening the annual week-end carnival of the Penn State ArchiP-ets* Club has gone down In the social annals as one of the most successful affairs of its kind during the year. On Saturday night the Beaux An Costume Ball was held at the Al pha Delta Sigma fraternity house with Auchenl* M-h's Serenaders furnishing the music. Of an '•xtremely light nature, the four plays presented side-lights on com edy. ruining from a gross insinuation forecast-d for 1962. through an imj«r tinent asj>eot of tomorrow, back •through a studied reflection of today, and terminated in a play picturing a scene j n a fashionable cafe in Vienna. All of the characters in the plays adapted •themselves remarkably well to the in terpretation of their various roles. AU of the parts of the four plays -Food". "The Angel Intrudes", "The Perfect Woman", and "The Farewell Supper" were taken by men of the Ar chitectural Department. The Atelier of Engineering F in which the plays were presented was decorated with var ious architectural features, including a model of the Penn State Union. The scheme of decoration for the Ball on Saturday night was entirely of a Spanish nature. Shields of various Spanish nobility were placed in an ar tistic manner around the walls, the drop lights were covered with decora tive pictures of Spanish dancers, bull fighters, and so forth, nnd the chairs were draped with Spanish blankets nnd robes. A scene of a Spanish bull fight entirely covered one wall. During the Intermission in the dancing the Nlt jany Lion broke in upon the party and was finally conquered and killed by S. Pokalsky *23. The entire picture of the affair was gay with a fantastic variety of colors. With Professor A. L. Koeher, Profes sor .W. S. Hoffman, and Dean R. L.* Sackett acting as judges, various prizes were given out to the best dressed coup les and individuals. J. H. Savoline '24 and JUss Ruth Poorman received first prize as the best dressed couple. H. R. 'Gamble 'and Miss Helen Savard took first prize as the best costumed faculty couple. "Those who received honorable mention 'are H. A. Gaul '2l ,and tftls partner and T. S. White and his par tner. Miss Margaret Jones '25 was given the first prize as the most fan tastically costumed individual. George Rustay *23 received second mention and E. M. Fee '23 was third. Auchenbacli’s Serenaders, who fur nished the music for the occasion, played a number of special Spanish numbers in keeping with the general idea of the whole affair. With dance music of the highest type, with decora tions the .best that have been seen a round State College for some time, and with a feeling of gayety pervading ev erything, the Beaux Arts Carnival was a pronounced success.

PASTIME THEATRE Monday and Tuesday March 19-20 ■: «t Two Coach Hermann’s 1923 Basketball Squad NITTANY BASKETEERS HANG UP THIRTEEN VICTORIES IN 1922-23 The 40 to 23 victory over the Alumni tossers on the Armory floor Inst Satur day evening marked the close of one of the most successful basketball sea sons in the history of the Xittany In stitution. With a, record of thirteen conquests and one defeat by a two palm margin, the Penn State passers have hung up an imposing record for tiie 1923 season and one which com pares favorably with the cago feats of other institutions. With four regulars from last year’s team and an abundance of promising new material reporting for practice at the beginning of the season, Coach “Dutch" Hermann was given an excel lent opportunity to shape up a cham pionship aggregation and the season’s record bears testimony to the fact that ho lost no time in doing it. The four veterans from last year's varsity squad about whqm the Nlttany mentor built, up bis winning combination were Cap tain "Pip” Koehler, generally accredit ed to be one of the best guards in col legiate circles by leading sport writ ers, "Johnny" Reed, flashy forward and deadly foul tosser, "Sam”. Shalr, long and rangy center and a dependable man for the pivot position, and "Kenny" Loefller, able running mate to the Nlt tnny leader. These men formed the framework for* the first-string outfit and proved their worth on so many occa- sions that their positions were never in doubt ami by the end of the season they were practically indispensable to the Riue and Wiiite cage team. These veterans were fixtures to be sure, but there remained one important position in the forward line to bo filled and "Dutch” set; about looking for a solution to his problem. Ho was not long in doubt," however, as to the most likely man for the job and Gerhardt, star comer on last year’s freshman team, was detailed to fill the vacancy at forward. So ably did this six-foot youngster hold down the* job in the practice games and the preliminary en counters of the season that he was regularly assigned to the task of mak ing baskets for the Penn State tossers and acquitted himself in a manner be yond tho reproach of even the most critical followers .of the cage game.. But, wlille praise is being heard on all sides for the regulars, care must be taken not to forget the second-string men for it was largely due to their of forts'in providing stiff opposition in the practice sessions that a championship combination was turned out this year. fin a prominent -place on the list of substitutes may bo mentioned the names of "Harry" Wilson, “Andy" Sha ner, and. "Don" Huber, guards, Mar shall, center, and Stuckeman and Flx ter, forwards. Theso men were given an opportunity to display their wares on several occasions against foreign lUSURPLUS STOCKS!!! !: .

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAR opponents and nt all times did they prove worthy of their assignments. The Penn State cagers opened the 1923 season with a bang, registering a clean cut victory over Juniata in a rather loosely played game by a 49 to 25 score. The game was literally a walk-away for Hermann’s proteges Tor at no time during the contest was the Blue and White In’dangor. The second game of tiie season with the strong Syracuse quintet resulted In a 32 to 15 victory for tho Nlttany tos-* sers. It was a hard tussel from start to finish and the play was much closer than tho score Indicates. From the start both teams kept up a pace so fur loub that tho scoring of field goals was limited while foul shooting made up half ’of the tallies for both sides. The Nlttany five showed up well for so early in the season and made' the propects for the season hopeful. Loose playing and absence of passing marked the work of the Bluo and White passers in tiie third game of the season in which they fought their way to a 3G to 25 victory over the powerful Carnegie Tech team by a rally which got under way near the close of the second period, when Reed, veteran for ward, was sent Into the game after having, been taken out earlier in the evening. Tho Carnegie. Tech cagers displayed a steady brand of ball which made them dangerous during the en tire game. Defeating the Lebanon Valley quin tet by a score of 43 to 18 on the Ar mory court, "Dutch" Hermann's toss ers continued their march toward the* mythical collegiate floor championship hi the fourth game of the 19.23 season. Captain "Pip” Koehler was easily the individual star' of the battle, scoring a total of twenty points and playing a bang-up defensive game. The western invasion on which both Pitt and Carnegie Tech fell before the onslaughtcrs of the Penn State cagers, tested the mettle of Hermann’s prote ges but they were not found wanting and came through with flying colors, tucking two more hard games away be fore returning to the Xittany institu tion. In both of these tussles on for eign floors,' "Johnny” Reed, diminu tive Blue and White forward, was the star performer. Scoring twenty out of a possible twenty-four foul throws in the Pitt tangle and making thirteen tosses count in the Carnegie game, Reed established an imposing record for foul‘shooting on the western trip.

The game started with a rush and the Penn State passers, sweeping all opposition before them were not to he stopped until the final whistle blew and they had decid edly beaten their old-time rivals. The ninth straight victory of the season came ns a result of a 39 to 23 win over the crack Dickinson College five in a fast and furious game on the Armory court. The varied attack used by both teams kept the battle open and fast'and made it-one of the most interesting contests seen at Penn State In a long time. The Pitt Panther,’ next victim to in vade the Lion’s den, was disposed of in short order, Hermann’s tossers handing a 39 to 11 defeat in a fast game on the Armory court. The Penn State mentor unloosed the second team against the visitors in ■ the second half and this combination proved almost as hard for the Panther to crack ns the regular varsity five. The first reverse of the season, and incidentally the last, came ns a result of an invasion of New York State when the Lion cagers were forced to bow to Cornell in a hotly contested battle on the Ithaca floor by a score of 27 to 25. Ah even break was secured on the trip, however, as Syracuse was defeated on the next night by a 44 to 14 count. Tn the next game on the home court with the scrappy Swarthmore tossers. Hermann’s cagers registered another victory by a 41 to 25 score in a loosely played game. Neither team (showed exceptional form and there was nothing spectacular in the work of the individual players although the gnme was not devoid of interest. The game with the Alumni last Sat- urday night, resuiting in a 40 to 23 vic tory for the varsity basketcers. brought the 1923 cage season to a successful close'.

MILLER MANDOLIN CLUB TO GIVE CONCERT AT ROCKVIEW At the request of the warden of the Rockview Penitentiary, the Penn State Mandolin Club will give a concert to the inmates of that institution some time within the next few weeks. The Mandolin Club lias been doing n large amount of this type of work during the ivist year which has served to place the organization and Penn State before a large number of people who would otherwise not be reached. Tlie Club presented u number of se lections of a classical nature at their last concert at the penitentiary, hut this time they are arranging a concert that will be made up entirely of pop ular jazz music. It was found that this type of music is more highly apprecia ted by the men. The Mandolin Club lias given con certs before the Architects’ Club and the I University Club during the last few weeks and has played at numerous so cial functions among the townspeople of State College. WORK ON NEW CATTLE I BARN NEARS COMPLETION Work on the new cattle barn, which 5s now under construction, is progress ing rapidly, and college officials hope to have It completed by the first of July. The new building will be one of the finest equipped beef cattle barns in the country, being modern In every res pect, and far superior to the present unsystematized barn. The new' structure, which will be built of brick and stucco, will have a main -barn, sixty by one hundred and twenty feet, and will contain stalls for approximately seventy-five head of ma ture cattle. There will he a feed stor age room.and a large overhead space, the former holding four carloads of feed, while the overhead space will have a capacity of fifteen tons of hay. An otfice and laboratory for Instructional work will also be found, while rooms will be made to accomodate herdsmen and their assistants. On tho cast side of the bam. an open shed, forty by three hundred and twenty feet, will be constructed and utilized for experimen tal feeding. The'structure will be e qulpped with modern grinding machin ery, and two silos, built of vitrified tile, each holding one hundred and fifty tons, have just been completed. There Is nothing modern in the pres ent barns, and the finished structure will mark a new era in the Animal Hus bandry Department of Penn State.
