THE DISTURBING ELEMENT
Ever since Student Council made a ruling to curb unruly con
duct in the Armory with provision to have offenders turned over to
the Tribunal, ,e have kept our mes and ears open rod have come
to the conclusion that the larger disturbing element is not the under
graduates, it is not the followers of the Nisiting teams, but it is the
multitude of %ming boys rho so arm into every indoor meet and pro
ceed to raise 'cam"
While see condemn these young town crehms for being respon
sible fer much of the disorder, the} ale not solely to blame, for they
learned then art fro.n the Penn State undergraduate msny months,
yes, years ago Some students still persist in voicing their opinions
while the Band is playing and while the contest is in progress, but
their ungepticmanly conduct is in the minority.
Similar and ever worse conditions prevail in the movies Night
alter night there are loud and obscene demonstrations that make a
gentleman think twice before escorting n lady to the show But
here, however, it is net the small boys who start to shout and use
indecent language Fiore it is the offending undergraduates—college
MEN—who lend their voices freely to the titter disgust of those who
have any sense of prophet} in their personality
It is admitted that conditions at the Armory are not altogether
suitable fcr comfort The poor ventilation and the small seating ca
pacity arc sadly inadequete to care for crowds such as Jammed the
building last Saturday All these things render sane conduct hard
for those y ho are impulsive and for those who do not think
It is suggested that the managers of the various sports instruct
their assistants to allow no boys to enter the Armory who do not
have tickets This will elumnate much of the disorder that has here
tofore arisen If it does not, then we shall endeavor to seek out those
offenders among the undergraduates who are the leaders of the dis
turbing element.
INDIVIDUALITY AGAIN
When Chailcs Lawson stated in his book on "Human Nature"
that "mcst people are too mere or tamely imitative to do any changing
on themsehcs or their sun oundings in response to anything less than
the Jarring or thrilling of dangerous threats of mar," he was probably
thinking of college students and what critics call "the students' lack
of [lid', &Livia) " Time and again, the ccllege man has been the
sabject or ridicule because he !allows the path made by his predeces
sot s He is laughed 't because he takes up the yellow slicker when it
is introduced, and because he adopts wide trousers Cynics hold him
up to scorn when lie follows, pessimists throw up their hands to dis
may when he departs irom the coat entional
This lack of individuality should nct fill our hypocrites with too
much concern Perhaps it is a good omen It is inconceivable to think
of a world in which everybody attempted to lead and where there was
nailed , / to follow When the Lord created man, He saw to it that no two
should have the same finger prints, that no two faces should be exactly
alike If we cared to he sarcastic, we could ask Mr Lawson and
his contemporaries what they hate to say about these apparent signs
of cutward indiyidualit)—if they are looking for such signs If they
are not searching for these es.ternal manifestations, we might refer
them to an oft-quoted statement which claims that "every individual
is made up of a group of individualities"
It is not a preblem—this lack of individualit)—it is merely
means to an end A means by which those men and women who have
always been in the habit of attacking the ccllege student for one thing
or another mat' continue then ciiticism when all other channels run
dry Thomas Edison "broke away" a few years ago when he present
ed prospective emplo)ecs with his now famous question list and those
critics who ccnso, the college student fer his lack of originality are
probably the same ones who ridiculed Edison for an attempt at some
thing different
It cannot he denied that the majority of our great leaders today
come Irani colleges and universities. and as long as wo, are to have
leaders, We must lime followers Russia suffered because her people
possessed an overabundance of individuality and made haste to follow
others who held the same ideals. But let the critics go unrestrained
for, as long as they ecntinue, they feed the multitude who do not care
to think for themselves
DR. MARION LEROY BURTON
In behalf of the Penn State student body, the COLLEGIAN ex
tends to the undergraduates of the University of Michigan its pro
lound sympathy on the death of their president, Dr. Marion Leroy
Burton. V. ho passed away at his home in Ann Arbor last week after a
long illness. An exemplification at the noblest qualities of man;
courteous, open and straightfomard in all his affairs, scornful of sub
terfuge and design, Dr Burton's passing will prove not only an irre
parable loss to the University of Mithigan but to the entire country
and collegiate world.
Born of poor parents who were unablt to provide for his edu
cation, Dr. Burton waged a game battle against great odds and the
story of his lite and ultimate success should he an inspiration to every
college student today A newsboy on the streets of Minneapolis at an
early age, Dr Burton determined to make his way in the world and
years later, he returned to the same city, not as a newsboy, but as the
head of the University of Minnesota!
An uncanny insight into the human nature enabled the great
educator to make friends wherever he appeared and within a few
wears, Dr Burton went to the University of Michigan as its president
'There followed a period of e pansion for Michigan. a period of new
educational ideals which shall continue even now in memory of the
love and esteem with which Dr Burton's students and co-workers
held him

Modest and unassuming, the Michigan president first attracted
national attention last summer when he, delivered the speech nomin
ating Calvin Coolidge for president Despite the years in which he
v,as before the public previous to this time, little was known of the
Marion Lei oy Burton behind the scenes for his was a life devoted to
the semice of humanity without thought of recognition
