AID TO STUDENTS
New Chaplain Gives Counsel on
_ ';PinAdelis - Presented Rim by
Young Men and Women
IS ALSO ACTIVE IN WORK
OUTSIDE OF PENN STATE
Being enthused with his newly creat
ed office of chaplain at Penn State
is a mild way of expressing Dr Fraser
Mai - gees attitude toward the work
which is occupying most of his time
and attention. During the short period
of the time that he has been connected
with the college he has had opportun
ity to get s. bird's eye view of the Pos
en:Withes that are open for development
in his particular line of work
Dr. Metzger recently said that he
fully appreciates the wholehearted spir
it of cooperation which has been ex
tended him everywhere on the Penn
State =mune and further Intimated
that it could only be through such a
medium that he could hope to perform
hls'work to the satisfaction of both
the college and himself. Some idea of
the degree of Interest which the new
chaplain shows in connection with his
work Is made manifest by the number
of invitations thitt he has already re
ceived requesting his prmience at var
ious student and faculty functions Re
has been called upon to speak at stu
dent gatherings not leas than three
times a week since he has been here
Office Opened
An office was opened for Dr. Metzger
In room 282 Old Main last week, and
to him ninny students have come for
advice and counsel on questions Per
taining to their college life His real
serifiee to Penn State will be accom
plished-in this work. Advice which is
helpful and beneficial is most kindly
offered by Fraser Metzger. the man,
when young men and women walk Into
his office with personal or general Preb- 1
terns that require someone with a wide
range of experience to solve.
Activities which are centered outside
of State College also command the at
tention of the new chaplain Penn
State's part in the plan to establish a
school of instruction at the Rockview
Penitentiary are being aided by the ef
forts of Dr Metzger. The welfare work
which he has already begun at that in
stitution is appreciated by Its officers.
To Aid Convict
An example of what may develop
from the Rev 'Fraser Metzger's work In
outside activities Is apparent from the
fact that one of the inmates of the iPen-
Itentlary has expressed a desire to be
come actively engaged In the ministry
Ready to give this man every oppor
tunity to "make good", Dr Metzger
made a •trip to the penitentiary Vila
week to interview him
SPeaking favorably on • the attitude
shown by the students at the Sunday,
chapel seevices, Dr Metzger " So
far as one can judge 'from the platform
the interest and attention of the stu
dents at Chanel is all that could be de
sired."
