FATHERS' DAY
Within the walls of Penn State there are assembled some hun
dreds of students seeking higher education The doors swing wide
to admit them into the collegiate brotherhood and they are accorded
the hand of fellowship from the time that they first set foot on Nit
tany soil.
The undergraduates of this College have made rapid and lengthy
strides in their pursuit of knowledge and have learned, in turn, to ex
tend that true feeling of hospitality to those who follow in their
footsteps But may it never be forgotten that behind these under
graduates there has always been someone on whom the burden of sup
port has devolved and who has made these opportunities possible
That someone is the Penn State student's parent.
So once again the doors of Penn State are swung open to admit
a guest. And this time it is Dad The keys of the College, with
which they may enter and examine the innermost recesses of their sons'
and daughters' work shops are placed at the disposal of the fathers
The COLLEGIAN, on behalf of the students of Penn State, welcomes
them and bids them take full liberty of their visit.
A goodly program has been arranged and it is the duty of every
undergraduate to sue that the fathers of Penn State do not miss a
single event planned for them Fathers' Day has been supported
with great enthusiasm in the past And this year will be no ex
ception. It is a day rightly set aside for the honored guests of Penn
State, a day for the entertainment of those who have made it possible
for the undergraduates of this institution to take up and continue
their work under the watchful eye of the Nittany Lion.
SPIRIT WEEK
The poet tells us of King Arthur and his knights of the Round
Table as they sought the blessing of the Divine hosts before going out
to combat. Such was their procedure for instilling vividly in the mind
of the warrior that his mission was one of honor and for a worthy
cause. It was to strengthen him and give him courage and spirit that
would serve to carry him through his dangers without harm
In every war the soldiers have gathered together on the eve of
battle to receive the comforting words of the chaplain. This idea has
not changed, it has survived from the old legends to be put into Ac
tual use today. \Vherever people assemble in large crowds, there is
a danger that the cause may become obscured by the growth of per
sonal ambition and the desire for self-advancement which eventually
spells defeat for the cause. It is even so at Penn State.
•
To offset this unchecked tendency, and to renew the aims of the
institution, its customs, its desires for advancement and growth. and
its ideals there has been set aside a period designated as Spirit Week.
It is a time to call together the hosts of Penn State to renew their al
legiance to its traditions
The Penn State spirit is not dead It is contained in the breast
of every loyal son and daughter of the College, but it does need awak
ening; and to this end Spirit Week has been devised and is being dedi
cated It will be only by united afforts tnat such a result can be ac
complished successfully. The fire that now smoulders must burst
into flame and must be kept burning fiercely as a beacon light of the
very life of Penn State
Student Council has worked hard on a program which, it is hoped,
will serve to inspire the undergraduates and renew the traditions of
Penn State Beginning on Monday morning and continuing until
next Saturday night, the various organizations on the campus, includ
ing the Student Tribunal, Blue Key and the several class societies, will
have charge of the events which 'have been planned. But these plans,
however well made, will avail nothing if the undergraduates do not
lend their undivided and unstinted support to the undertaking.
To better instill in the minds of the students the importance of
the occasion, it is suggested that the characteristic Penn State "Hello"
be adopted as the slogan of the week, and then be wholeheartedly
continued every day while there is such an institution as Penn State
in existence
The challenge has been sounded. Let every man with a spark
of the true meaning of Penn State spirit rally to the occasion.
A NEW STAFF
The COLLEGIAN is pleased to announce the personnel of the
Board resulting from the annual elections held recently. It is to them
that the out-going Board turns over the management of the paper,
with the earnest hope that next year will be one of real progress .for
Penn State and for its student publications
Within the memory of the present senior class the COLLEGIAN
changed from a weekly to a semi-weekly publication, although the
number of editors and business managers that had published the week
ly edition was considered sufficient to publish the paper twice weekly
During the past year the fact has become evident that the task of pub
lishing the COLLEGIAN effeciently while keeping up a high grade
of scholastic work is too great for four junior associate editors. It is
for this reason, and in order that the publication may enjoy further
progress, that the junior editorial board has been increased to six
members
Elections to the Board resulted as follows. On the editorial staff.
Editor-in-Chief, W. L. Pratt '25; Assistant Editor, J. H. Lum '25,
Managing Editor, H. S. Morris "25; Managing Editor, F. P. George '25,
