Sou•hein "Prosy." is rsads to asatinic once more the aiduors duties of a college president And c' rating duties they arc in th s period ct growth and eva-s,on or the Nittanv institution in tot, comparenvely short tiros that Dr. Thomas has been at Penn State to the capacity of administratzve 11.2nd l/1 1 1 1 e College, 11,2 has been ins , " turcntal m ellecttng many mo thnhile eiviages of a wholesome rature in departmental and go‘ernmci.tal ra;.,i.lat,on. But his chief light to recognition as a beneiactor ci the hilittan j aistitution lies In the Identification of lin, name and pelsoatility v the movement for a Greater Penn State, a great stet: Liam sip' to supplant the college of modest preportlons which he fouiii here three c.ars ago. New btuldings, rising to dignified heights on tic campus, are silent tributes to his purposclul and tireless Worts Aril the undergraduates of Penn Sucre rejoice wan him in the first cat:lard evidence of a success ful campaign But there are times when the name of a college president, the leader of ever:, thing, 'great of small, pertaining to lastituttoral regu limn in the eves of students, is lr•4ed With 11'0%2111CM; in N.:licit lie is not the controlling figure Wl.ll suck unwarranted association, he is oft-times the object of considerable ut tent nod undeserved criticism It is the price of his job And as rte '2l`,/.ICIIIIVC head of the institution he bears it without comment. Perri Strte is cam now tie scene of just such a situation, and President Thomas is the lencung fipaire The recent unprecedented reform movements pertaining to student welfare and the drastic regulations imposed upon the social prie.leees of the. undergraduates have aroused a spirit of r.ghtcous indigratior in the hearts of Penn State students And "Press" i hoinrs has cull srhected to not a little undergra , duate criticism of an liaccialplunctitmy nature, But suet criticism is unjust and undeserved it is unfortunate that so mania rerun movements have been Ir:inched since the appointment of Di Theme•, as administrative nead 01 the College IThr it places juts in a Lrd light in the eyes of the students It robes him in the garmen's of " reformer tint it must be remembered that the president of a callepe iv, is such matters, the mouth-piece of the Board of Trustee.. ana ti.e Trustees, 111 turn, act .ceording tc the dictates of the ininaiduals or group of individuals responsible for the maintenance el tne pis..tation, in this particular cr'e, the people of the state. "Prey" hom•ts has done an intincnse amou it of good for Penn State. And assurance is given that he has inst begun ble has the interests of the students at heart "s well as the interests of the insti tution lie \exits to lie the friend of eaer,. undergraduate on the centres. and every •,,citlent v ill lind in hint s friend indeed if he but trl.e: tie trouble tc look. beneath t •e cute, em.ering of Yankee resarve the COLLVGIAN, while stir:yr:ly oppor , d to the recent enact men's of the Senate Committee on St: 'cat N..,Hare and the seemingly unnecessaiv eno oachmen,s upon tire pc. sr 0 , 1 lights and social prim lee,s of the undergraduates, wishes to tolee aderntaa,e of this oppor tunity to pledge anew it., support of the iidrainist:itica to sty move. moot vluch this newimanci helicees is fo. the betterment of Penn State THE Nns-Em Here at Penn State is a ,rodent hod,' tl , lt is composed of most ogreeable lellos, In fact, it wotdd 1).: hoed to toads more plersant r , nap oh men with whom to pass tour }ears of (-allege life than is lound right here in the Nittnny Valley Agreeableness is a virtue, but carit.id to excess it becomes a sice. When a prominent undergraduate nviLes the statement that he fins neser seen a motion defeated in his two years of set vice on one of the most important bodies of the student fl,o 'eminent, tt is tune to stop and reflect on a quality thrt i.serns to dominate the ac tions of the asei age undeigreduate, an stability to stand squarely on his own mental feet and to think for himself lhts lad , of sell-reliance is exident in the meetings of societies, fiatesnities and campus organizations. An =lon is proposed mhich I , Jto he conti ary to the noshes of a large portion of the group. Let that action once be put on the floor in the form of an affirmatird motion and tt is almost certain to be enacted Some time ago, a series of radical reforms was instituted that dept ived the undergraduates of not a few of their social privileges Now the average student has little sympathy for regulations, even thoogh they may be designed for his sari good, it they restrict his personal libei ty It was indeed surprising that the first reform of this nature did not meet with some out-spoken proof of resentment float the student body. But with the oceptton of a few desultory mutterings, not cne cloud, indicative or a storm of protest, darkened the ['annuli horizon of campus thought ror this reason alone the COLLEGIAN is glad that the Student Welrare committee has taken action against June house-party A sptrit of protest has swept through the rinks of tire undergraduates and the usually lazy and indiftei eat attitude of the student has been changed to one of active interest in the problems of the college. Undergraduate leaders are working earnestly, as they have done in the past seeking a solution to the situation, and they at last have the backing and interest of a student bcdy that has been aroused from its usual phlegmatism This is. indeed, a healthy condition. In the past the college has been infested with yes-ers, men who seem to be too mentally lacy and indifferent to think for themselves. It is a wise student who takes an active interest in the campus prob lems of this institution for he will develop these qualities of straight thinking and leadership that arc so much in demand in this present day world.

He Reached the Top company who began his career as an agent as this to say to seniors who are about to graduate from college: "If you love work and desire to pursue an honorable, useful and lucrative mission in life this in the business for you to take up. Life insurance salesmanship offers a fine field for the energies of the splendid young men in our colleges "That this Is true is demonstrated by those college men who have taken up life insurance for they have shown that the college man is fir for this kind of a job and that the job also is fit for the college man. "The work of the life insurancesalmman is distinguished byindependence and opportunityfor directing his own. heves all possible opportunityforindividual initiative and a chance to make an ample income at an age when most fellows are smuggling on a wage pittance."
