FRIDAY, MAY 29, 1925
MEMORIAL DAY
Si\ty-onc years ago, a nation was divided against itself in one of
the most bitter wars in historv. Two armies were fighting for a
cause each thought was just, and for four long years the Blue and the
Gray battled Then came peace and with it the realization that thou
sands had given their lives that “this nation might live” And Me
morial Day was set aside to honor these dead
But within the past fitly years Memorial Day has assumed a more
important significance and tomorrow will witness an entire nation
paying homage to its departed Veterans of three wars will parade
every town and village in the United States m memory of their com
rades, while millions stand by to pay silent homage.
Penn Stare undergraduates will combine with the townspeople
of State College tomorrow morning in what promises to be the most
impressive observance of Memorial 'Day ever staged in the Nittany
Valley Every student has been requested by the committee to take
rn active part in the program either by participation in the parade or
by attendance at the exercises on the front campus It should not
be a matter oi duty, but a feeling mingled with respect and the desire
to pay homage that brings thiee thousand undergraduates out in full
force tomorrow.
RING THE OLD MAIN BELL
Next Tuesday the Old Main Bell rings forth on the Penn State
campus in its debut befoie the student bodv. The new publication
rings lorth with assurance, an assurance born of the sincere belief
that there is a pressing need for a local magazine having a broader,
more literary scope than those now in existence
Since 1921 there has been no publication at Penn State which has
attempted to present on its pages anything of more than negligible
litcrarv value. At the same time there has been a marked disinclina
tion toward things literary among the students To ask whether
the lack ot a suitable medium for expression has fostered this indif
ference or whether the indifference itself has made such a publication
impossible is to come upon the old question of “the chicken or the
‘■‘Kg' 5 ” The manner in which the Old Mam Bell is received will give
a final answer. If the reception is cold, which is highly improbable,
Penn State will face a charge that no amount of frenzied cheering on
the football field next fall can silence
If there is one term, applied no matter how mildly, that will cause
Penn Stnte men to rise up and do battle to the death, that term* is
“Coxv College 1" Analyzed roughly, it means,, "You are a bunch of
hicks, a gang of uncouth yokels lacking in appreciation, of the finer
things that make a real college.” Fifty years ago there inay have
been some foundation foi such an accusation. Now, however, we
point to our debating teams, our theatrical organizations, our techni
cal and humorous publications ns conclusive evidences that there can
be no loundation For it today There has been but one flaw in an
otherwise sound deiense—we cannot point with pride to a well-es
tablished, thriving literary magazine
It is nor on an appeal to lovalty, however, that the Old Main Bell
places its hopes; the board early determined that the publication would
have to stand on its own merits for permanent recognition The re
sult is a range of subject matter, from the pens of the best scientific
and literary talent among students and faculty, that cannot fail to
challenge the interest of every man and woman on the campus
Make the Old Main Bell img loud and long l
THE EVOLUTION OF TENNESSEE
Down in sunny Tennessee, the inhabitants are not worrying about
the 1923 presidential election or the League of Nations—they have
other things to think about It seems that the legislature of that
state heard oT the theory of evolution two or three years ago and
passed a bill prohibiting its being taught in the schools Freedom
ot speech was apparently disregarded in this instance and at the pre
sent time, a high school professor is in jail awaiting for violat
ing this particular act
While the Commonwealth is attempting to obtain the esteemed
William Jennings Bryan to defend its case, friends of the professor
arc making every effort to secure Clarence Darrow, of Loeb-Leopold
fame, to free the prisoner Perhaps the Chicago attorney can prove
to the entire satisfaction of Bryan that it certainly must have been an
apish instinct that prompted his two youthful clients to commit their
cold-blooded crime last spring
Since the United States has made progress and free-thinking its
passwords tor more than a century, it is not likely that the Tennessee
professor will ever be sentenced, even though the legislature of the
state can point to its act for justification. In the nineteenth century,
England was bitterly opposed to the teaching of evolution— it ap
pears that Tennessee has not yet progressed beyond that period.
And while the culprit waits in jail, the public argues and Darrow
and Bryan hurl verbal barrages at one another, think of poor Huxley
and Darwin—they must be turning over in their graves
