Member of Ens(ern Intercollegiate Nonmlnp,cr Ahsorlatlon News Editor this issue ---- FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1924 TO NON-FRATERNITY MEN More than four years ago, the Penn State Club was instituted at this college. Endorsed as it was by the leading members of the faculty, the beginning of the organization was auspicious and during the first few - years of its existence, an extensive program of athletic and social. activities was carried on But there has been a marked 'decline within the past two years in the activities of the organization. Socially it has practically teas ed to function. Its athletic program is more encouraging but even here, men who have been actively connected with this phase of its work, have detected a slight lowering in the keenness of the compe- tition that has existed in the past. Startling though it may seem, dances, sponsored by the Penn State Club in the past, were largely supported by fraternity men Their participation in the social activities of the organization is not to be discouraged, however, for the founders of the Penn State Club thought of it as a comprehensive body with non-fraternity men direct ing and initiating its policies, and fraternity men taking an active interest in them. But a successful program of social affairs is im possible without the support of the men for whom it was designed primarily, to benefit It is true that many perplexing problems must be overcome to effect a revival of the Penn State Club activities, but the non-frater nity men of the college have at hand an opportunity to bring about the first and most important step in their solution. On Monday night, the annual election of the Club's officers will be held in Old Chapel and its members will select the men who will guide the des tinies of the organization during the coming year. There is the president, leader of the large group of non-fraternity men in the college and their representative in Student Council, the second vice-president, whose program, as leader of social activities, is limited only by his capability, and the third vice-president, wile, as manager of athletics, has well-defined activities to promote. These are the men who can make the Penn State Club a power on the cam pus. It is up to the non-fraternity men of the College to consider carefully the possible candidates for these offices and to elect capable and aggressive leaders, If these men will then assume their responsi bilities, it is safe to look forward to the time when the Penn State Club, aided by the Student Union and other facilities, will measure up to the expectations of its founders. WHERE SILENCE IS GOLDEN it has been requested by the student manager of the Penn State hosing team that announcement be made to the effect that no ap plause or demonstration of any kind will be allowed during the pro mess of n round in • the coming meets with visiting college teams This is not a new ruling, but it has not been rigidly obrerved in the past by spectators of Nittany ring encounters Attention is called to a section of the rules for fistic battles is sued by the committee on hosing of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. This section states specifically Elva "couching, or words of advice or encouragement from saunters, or applause. when in the opinion of the referee and iudgi..s the occasion \variants it, shall be considered a foul" It is the announced attention of officials at this year's collegiate boxing meets to abide strictly by the rules laid down, walla& any deviation whatsoever. Unrestrained enthusiasm on the part of the undergraduates levy result, therefore, in the deci sion being awarded to the opponent on a foul, even though the Penn State man may have n decided advantage. Self-restraint is one of the lessons that must be teamed in life, and it is not too soon to start learning this most important lesson while in college. It would be unfortunate, indeed, to have an op ponent win a bout and incidentally, perhaps, a meet by virtue of a decision awarded on the basis of untimely outbursts by an irrespon sible undergraduate. Pent-up enthusiasm may be released during the interim between rounds, but it must be confined to that period. But the fact that applause or wordsiof encouragement from the side-lines may lose a bout or a meet for the Nittany team is not the most important point to be considered. It is a question of sports manship. Demonstrations of any kind during the progress of a round are not considered sportsman-like. And for that reason alone, if for none other, Penn State undergraduates must maintain silence. A NEW POST OFFICE Coincident with the marked degree of progressive building going on at Penn State, there comes the gratifying news that within the near future the demand of the undergraduates and townspeople for more adequate post office facilities will be granted. A year ago, the COLLEGIAN aided in conducting a letter writ ing contest among the students for the purpose of obtaining two letters in which were outlined most clearly the inadequate facilities for handling the large volume of mail that is created within State College, chiefly by the undergraduates. These two letters, selected from the two-score or more submitted, were forwarded to Senators Reed and Pepper with the intention of arousing some influential acti vity toward securing a new post office building. Notification from the instigator of the plan that the necessary appropriation has been granted, and that work will be begun upon the new Federal building in a short time, will be received by the un dergraduates with a righteous amount of pleasure. For it is evid ence that the town and College alike are sharing in the general pro- _ _ Editor-In-Chid lannaging Edlto) _ _ ...Managing Edlto: IMEMEI ..1.11.m E R Lowry, .21 ..........M22 W.
