THE. RIGHT MEN
A feeling of suspense is apparent on the campus as the time for
the annual undergraduate elections approaches and within a short
period three class presidents will he selected at Penn State for the
year 1925-20. Prospective candidates for the offices should realize that
a difficult task faces them if they are successful in their attempts.
They should know That to hold a class presidency is to hold one of the
most responsible undergraduale positions in the College. These
things, and many others, they should know.
Penn State has witnessed an undercurrent of class disinterest
within the past few years and the problem of restoring active partici
pation in all matters challenges the entire student body. There is a
spark• of encouragement in the knowledge that even at the present
time, students are discussing the why's and the wherefore's of possible
candidates for it is evidence that undergraduates arc at last awaken
ing to the fact that selecting a class president is.a serious matter.
-With a feeling akin to sympathy, the' COLLEGIAN has observed
the choices for class presidents within the past few years and it is safe
to venture that not oite-half of them possessed the qualities of real
leadership so essential to the makeup of a good executive: The suc
cessful candidate cannot lie blamed in this respect. however, because
it would he contrary to hutnan nature for a man to refuse an office
of this high bearing even though he realized he was totally unsuited
for the position. The brunt of the blame should he placed with the
students thetnsclres.
In the past, elections have been conducted hurriedly and in a
carefree manner with the ultimate result that several classes have
long after regretted their selections. Too often have the students
been blinded by a candidate's sterling record on the athletic field or
by his seeming endeavor in other campus activities. When such is the
case, Penn State undergraduates-are to be pitied, for, being college
students. they.should not judge a man only by what he has already
done but by what he gives promise of accomplishing in the future.
No individual can live on past laurels; if one believes he can, sonic
day he will he awakened from his fantastic dream.
Disillusionment has often followed the path of:a class presidency.
When a man is chosen for this honor, he expects the support of his
'electors, and once the latter feel that their efforts consisted in placing
- their man" in office and not in supporting hint after he has received
the position, his is a hopeless task and failure is inevitable. Cliques
and fraternity groups arc known to- exist on the campus hut even
these sub rosa organizations may exert a strong influence for good
if thiiy at least select as their Candidates men who compel respect and
possess the executive qualities of. a class president.
This newspaper has always been•an advocate or fair play. It feels
now, more titan ever, that the time has come when Penn State stu
dents should give their choice of leaders serious consideration. There
arc men on the campus who have demonstrated their ability and who
promise to do more once they •are given the office that demands the
full extent of their •abilities. Weigh your man in the balance. Dis
regard personal prejudices and dislikes—ask yourself if he is "the man
for the job," for upon the right leaders depends the reccrd that your
class will leave after its departurefrom the Nittany Valley.
"WOODEN SHOES"
That the Thespian Club is fast becoming one of the leading col
lege organizations of its kind in the country was conclusively demon
:•trated last 'Saturday night in the second Penn State showing of
"Wooden'Shoes", the 1925 musical comedy. Visitors from- every part
t,f the State attended the performance and their criticisms placed the
Froduction on a parity with those of other large colleges and uni
versities. K iPt 3
It is impossible for members of the student body to realize the
anumnt of time and effort expended by the cast and chorus, directors,
managers and others connected with•the organization in:producing a
show of the quality of "Wooden Shoes". From the - day the piece first
went into rehearsal, the personnel of the comedy has worked cease
lessly to make this year's showing surpass those of former years—
and the efforts have not been in .yin.
'During the Christmas and Easter vacations. the Thespians tray
eled • through eastern and western:Pennsylvania -and in every city in
which they appeared, the show was:acclaimed:a .success. Participants
in the, production have broadcast'the --work -of their institution in -a
novel manner. .and the:publicity- they have-given-the College- through
the medium of "Wooden Shoes'-has been invaluable to' Penn State.
--,
Within the memory of . the present student . ody, the productions
of the Thespian Club have - risen from -the. position of a ridiculously
amateur show to• one that has , all.the•earmarks of .a - professional
musical comedy. Not only in the.song and - dance numbers- but;also in
the costnming.and lightingeffects , did "Wooden" Shoes" assume•a•pro.
Cessions] -aspect.
Although • two ont-of-town ,performances ~and the Commence
ment showing will see - the .finitle• or "-Wooden Shoes," may the success
or the Thespian 'Club-and the-efforts ofdts members• in'-behulP of: Penn
State continue in-years. to come!
CONGRATULATIONS
Last Friday night witnessed •what was probably the most suc
cessful staging .of 41 junior Prom in the record of the function at
Penn State. Although past Proms have been uniformly satisfactory,
it is doubtful whether•an•atfair 'has ever been as carefully planned
or as effectually executed as the'l92.6 event. The shortage of favors,
the only possible ground for criticism, •was an entirely excusable
occurrence incident to conservative management and is already being
corrected.
Members of the committee responsible for this achievement arc
to be congratulated to a man, 'for they have.kept faith with the class
officers to whom they owe their appointments, with their class and
with 'Penn State tradition.
