Office: Ilittany Printing and Publlshing•Co. Eu'lding Telephone: 2121 V, Sell. Member of Eastern Intercollegiate Newspaper Association FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1924 COMMON COURTESY State College is essentially a college town and, as such, it suffers little from the delineation, for college towns. as a rule, are pleasant places in which to live The thriving borough of State College cer tainly is no e•ception. There arc no furnaces belching forth clouds of black and greasy smoke to delight the heart of no one but the laundryman. There is no glue factory, contaminating the atmosphere; there is no foreign section with its ‘exing problems In a word, State College is singularly free from those things that are the Line of life in many of our industrial cities., But the fact that State College is ri college town does not mean that it is entirely free from certain petty but annoying nuisances As proof of this statement we have the complaint of a member of the faculty who has a peculiar aversion to stepping off the sidewalk to allow several students, walking abreast, to pass And a number of townspeople and faculty members have re-echoed similar sentiment against the offense, in connection with which the happy-go-lucky, careless student has probably never realized his guilt. Playing ball on the sidewalks is frequently indulged in and when a woman was hit by a thrown ball some time ago, the accident became cause for further complaint Other examples of the infraction of the rights of others will occur to the student if he will but give them thought. All are but a reflection of the attitude of the student who re-' gards the town as a kind of an gime\ to the campus and' whose in-' difference to the wishes of the townspeople might well be summed up as marks of disrespect. The student alone is not to blame, others are equally responsible. Such thoughtlessness on the part of some individuals is an titter violation of common courtesy. Without doubt it is a thing that will be corrected if the matter is given a moments attention. IF SPIRIT CEASED College spirit has been interpreted in various ways; from physi cal combat where shoulder is placed to shoulder to that indefinable something which works inwardly and unseen in the best interests of the institution and the student. A college without spirit is like a ship without a rudder,—it may go forward but its course will be in circles never docking at the pert of highest achievement There is a time when man's enthusiasm wanes and grows cold with constant turmoil and strife Penn State has Just been revived from such a period. With very few exceptions the student body threw itself into the conduction of Spirit Week with a vigcr and wholeheartedness that awoke even the most cynical to action It is lamentable that more upperclassmen did not attend the mass meeting last Tuesday night and that a meagre handful of freshman girls did not view, with favor, the slight imposition of customs that was arranged for them Yet the benefits that were derived from this week of revival far over shadow the delinquencies of the few The Pants Scrap was an in centive to some as a means of showing their willingness to partake of something new, to foster that which was attempted in the interests of the College It matters not on which side of the fence the score was marked, it is the spirit of the thing that counts. The scrap was a success inasmuch as it awoke a spirit of friendly rivalry between the classes Spirit Week to some will soon be a thing of the past, to be thought about as a time when freshmen ran to and from their classes and co eds carried umbrellas bedecked with green ribbons; as a tone when the Pants Scrap was inaugurated To the majority of the student body, however, it will be remembered as a time when Penn State awoke frcm its lethargy and again revived its spirit. Some are sitting back with cocked cars and wide open eyes to watch the reaction which eventually follows such a revival A few have even gone so far as to predict that the conditions will be the same as they were before Spirit Week was started It must not be All the preparation, and calling together of hosts will mail Penn State nothing if the undergraduates nre soon to forget what has been done; if they are' again to become spiritless. Do net let the spirit die. A TRIBUTE Give the average student a few days vacation at home and one of the first things that he does is attend a theatre Some prefer musical comady, others drama and many vaudeville, very few, it is feared select opera or concert. Yet the latter two are probably the most instructive of the group. While this is true of the college stu dent it is also true of the average young man and woman the world over. They wish something light and airy, something that requires no arduous mental effort for its enjoyment That the student is filled up on the so-called "high class stuff" can not be said to be the case at Penn State. There arc the Players, representing the dramatic side of the stage, the Thespians with musical offerings; and the department of Music with its operatic presentations. All of these are amateurish in their personnel to be sure, but they develop that essential quality of appreciation that does much to broaden the mind. There is one organization on the Penn State campus that has furnished entertainment of this nature to the student body in the past. It has attempted to arrange a sufficiently varied program to meet with the approval of all This organization is the Young Men's Christian Association, better known as the "Y". In this issue of the COLLEGIAN is announced the Y. M C A Lyceum Course that next year will bring to Penn State artists of no mean repute This is but an example of the varied fields in which the "Y" is serving Penn State. Seeking but little support from outside sources, the "Y" has done much good work among the students at Penn State and its influence has been felt and appreciated in localities other than the campus. Now comes the welcome news that some reward for its earnest en deavors has been received. Reference is made to the plot of land recently bequeathed to the• organization from one who, for many years, has been called "Penn State's oldest freshman." The Y. M. C. A. has already made plans to have a cabin erected on this grant for use of the various campus societies and for the conduction of its work in other fields. But in order to do this the "Y" will be forced to call upon the students for some aid Let there be n good response to the call when it is made as a tribute to the work which has been done. ... -.- " T- -.-"--- THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN ANALYSIS IS COMPLETED ON EXPERIMENTAL SOILS Alt Itapettnnt toil solunble ntod, Ott the nitlllzer 'than Ithlth hare hunt In plogievn she, 11SI, h Iv been complet e. i t , iteet e .to t 3 II 55 hilt null Ptte fir I' I Hollten Tht.nt letr- Ititnt the °Went teltlll/el plote In Antetti Atte, the (dote butt been In In ogle,' fot mute 111.111 fat tt Ptll.l e hof the one bundled old farts-foul ts cur fnliV 11111 prepnred In the init. or 11011 for unnhu:s These on dem.
