KELLNER TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1924 BELOW GRADES With the termination of the first eight weeks of the collegiate year appears the usual flood of yellow slips of paper which signify student failures, in various courses. The antipathy of the first issue of the notice of failures this year lies in the fact that there has been a four percent increase above the total number of belows sent out last year While many of these failures have been issued to the freshmen, it is not to be supposed that the upperclassmen have been rated as being one hundred percent scholastically eligible Without dcubt a certain percentage of these below grades will be raised to the passing standard before the close of the semester and for those who have incurred only one failure there is ample op portunity tc remote, or at least better the condition before the Christ mas vacation period begins . . What is most striking about below grades is the seeming lack of seriousness with which some students view the matter. A student with more than one below grade finds himself in a serious predica ment if he is still encumbered with the condition when he returns to college in January Little time is left for a review and the stu dent must necessarily sacrifice some other subject in an attempt to raise his grade in the delinquent course. January is too late a date to start a "study campaign" to acquire a passing grade There still remains two weeks for hard work and serious think ing before the vacation period During that time many of these con ditions can be eliminated and so allow the undergraduate to go homc with a tarnished but clean slate In the words of a, well-known pub lishing company try this over on your text books "Now is the time for all good students to come to the aid of the below grades" SEASONAL. SPIRIT Football, the greatest of all collegiate sports, is over and once again the college student assumes a more passive attitude and perhaps an air of indifference as he settles down into the more serene atmos phere of books and monthly quizzes In some respects Penn State has learned a great lesson during the recent grid season. Nothing will be said of comparative scores, for in the main they count but little Attention is called, however, to the fact that the isiittany football tenni was well supported during the entire season It was only such support as was evidenced when the team was in its mos t , dire straits that maintained the enthusiasm until the final whistle of the last game But now that the lure of the goal posts has flickered and died it is well to revive that support and to put it into practice for the remainder of the year But instead of directing the effoi t toward tootball let it be turned into a more serious channel so that it will aid in the development of this great college Penn State, as an institution for higher learning, will continue as such regardless of football or any other sport. While it is true that participation in an intercollegiate sport lends dignity and prominence to an institution, it is also a fact that if such.participation and team support is to be the backbone of the institution there will be little material development for the college during periods other pan those when the contests are in progress Penn State spirit, as has been said before, is not a mere indulg ence in the College Yell or a willingness to enter a class scrap. It is something that conies from within the undergraduate, and it is that which prcmpts nice and women to strive untiringly for their Alma Mater Penn State spirit is not confined to one period of the year, it does not die when the football season is over, is IS not something, which, like an old fire, lies dormant for days, only to be fanned into life by a sudden gust of wind—the first football genie. To achieve and retain Penn State spirit the individual must ap ply that verse of scripture which reads• "Seek and ye shall find" Penn State students have not yet unearthed the true Penn State spirit. It lies deep; let's dig it out THE WOMAN OF TODAY , Bobbed, closely-cropped hair and linen collars, a masculine stride and quite a general deportation from the feminine—such are the out. ward characteristics of the woman of today In the morning she shops, in the afternoon it is the club or reception, and she dances or theatres in the evening. All womeno Certainly not, but many of them and their numbers are constantly increasing. The woman of today is busy—just as busy as she can be in twenty lour hours She has a necessity for masculihe attire, for she !mist work and play decidedly harder than did her grandmother. ke the college woman for example, forty hours of eollege v ark a week, preparation and classes, is a fair average for the majority. If she is not healthy, courageous and tolerant it would e& impossible for her to live in this day of strenuous effort She heeds must he a person who can walk miles from class-robm to class-rotifn during the week, devote some time to conscientious study and still find time for play. Then there is the self-supporting girl Who by• necessity is toreed to find time for work she has the harder lob "Higher standaids of enci gy and idea's of health have been Adopted by women today as a matter ot necessity Thei, have turned to the things for which they are ciititased because the, must belong to 'the fittest' or be lost. They are interested in 'outside' life because bungalow and apartment house-keeping cannot fill the day of an active woman And they must be health), m accordance with the 'nervous tension of toda, 's ctuhzntirn Today health is tti; sincere standard of women—especially college women The Lritieism that they are 'masculine' is absurd To be healthy is not necessarily to be masculine. And it is necessary " Gridiron Gossip ma ont ~r. lin P• 11.1 ''lll . . N 1.100 1 .11 0 ,, 4 .., ing e . NV 0, until ni , , II C t top of one irr.
