It is an event on the Penn State calendar looked forward to by every student and every alumnus with the best interests of the institution at heart. It is a time of reunion, and truly a time for celebration. Alumni Days have come and gone, and many of the objectionable features of those first affairs have long since been corrected and' forgotten. But there still remains a few abuses that should be ex tirpated at once in order that events of this nature at Penn State may become the clean-cut affairs that they should be. The tradi tions of the Nittany institution should and do frown upon these abuses and all that is needed is the leadership of a few determined men to wipe them out. First and foremost of all abuses in connection with Alumni Day is that of drinking. The use of intoxicating liquors at any time is bad enough, but it is doubly so at a time when alumni and out side guests are brought here to see the college in gala attire. No one likes to see a drunkard at a dance, and most undergraduates would refuse to attend dances where such pitiable sights are the rule Yet, by some freak in the psychology of students, an intoxicated man at an Alumni Day celebration is regarded as funny and laughable. It is true that where men meet and ponder over the magic of intoxicating beverages, they find much conviviality. If they care not how they get it, well and good But there are places for all things and this is not the place and this week-end is emphatically not the time for any such superficially acquired gayety. Strong drink is a curse to the institution at any time, and an im measurable amount of harm could be done to Penn Stite by embryo drunkards at a time like this week,end. The-wheels of progressive action should be set in motion for the extermination at this institu tion for all time of one of the most detrimental influences to the American college of today Penn State can not afford to have her name associates with tne antics of a group of intoxicated under graduates or graduates, as the case may be. The fair name at the instituuon is at stake when unthinking persons connected with the college lower their smith standards by using strong drink. A QUESTIONABLE PASTIME One of the favorite diversions of the human race, and one which makes its appeal to all classes of people in some form or other, is attracting undue attention in connection with the college youth of today. The diversion to which reference is made is the one of gamb ling and betting. College men, it would seem, are not immune from the subtle charm and lure of the fleeting siren, Chance For the past few years, public interest has been focused upon gambling as applied to college football games, through comments and discussions in the newspapers and magazines of the country Such interest is not aroused by anything which is an accepted fact. There must be something out of the ordinary about gambling which does not meet with the approval of the ordinary man to cause such comment. About this time last year, Student Council, without a dissent ing or protesting voice, endorsed a resolution opposing betting and gambling in connection with football games. A question was raised at the time as to whether or not that body was justified in taking such action. It was contended that the Council had no right to ex press its opinion on a matter which seems, at first thought, to be one of a purely personal and individual nature But opinions differ on such matters. There is no disputing the fact, however, that gambling prevents the development of the best type of college spirt by substituting the element of personal loss or gain, by making it less easy to appre ciate and applaud the good work of the opposing team, and by mak ing it difficult for those who bet to lose with the good feeling of true sportsmanship l't was for these reasons that Student Council took action last year, and it is for these same reasons that the Council should take a similar stand this year. It is •true that the secret arts employed by the enticing element, Chance, bring pleasures to the hearts of men. But wagering on col lege football teams is not, in its entirety, a personal matter. The act of one student affects others. The placing of money on a Penn State team hurts that team. Not only does it harm the team, but it im pairs the one who gambles. RAZZING MUST STOP In the old days, remembered, perhaps, by some of the alumni planning to revisit Penn State this week-end, razzing was a common occurrence. It was customary to razz opposing players for apparent mistakes and referees for supposedly unjust decisions. And nothing was thought of it, for it was but a reflection of the spirit of the times when intercollegiate contests had just been inaugurated. But those days are gone, never to return, and true sportsmanship, as pertains to athletics, has taken on a different significance. Razz ing of any kind, whether it be of players or officials, is discouraged most emphatically. It is not in accord with the principles of sports manship at any institution and decidedly not in keeping with the code of ethics in this respect at Penn State. There has been a tendency this year, more noticeable in each suc ceeding game, on the part of the undergraduates to forget themselves for an instant and let slip some remark or other not altogether com plimentary to player or official. It is a bad practice and must be dis couraged The freshmen are largely to blame for such remarks. Per haps it is due to ignorance on their part of the existing code of sports manship at Penn State Proper instruction might do much to correct this childish speech and action.
