GROFF DISCUSSES CHINA
IN ADDRESS AT CHAPEL
Graduate Lauds College’s Aid
in Renovating Conditions—
Asks Race Equality
Vividly presenting the state of af
fans in Chinn today and voicing an
eloquent appeal for the sympathies of
the Ameucan people ton aid the
Chmnninn, C W “Daddy” Groff 'O7,
head of the Agncultuial School ot
Canton Chustmn college, captivated
his audience of students, fnculty and
townspeople at chapel seivices Sun
day morning Centering lus topic on
the tluec words “law, liberty and
love” Dean GiofT painted an accurate
vvoid picture of conditions as they
actually existed among Chinese cit-:
izcns and students.
“Being between the devil and the
deep blue sen is China’s position at
this moment,” stated “Daddy.” “On
the one side aie the bolshevists or
ladicals who are attempting to dis
rupt the government and on the other
side is the Imperialistic movement
‘China for the Chinese’ seems to be
the slogan of the people themselves,”
he went on, “and it isn't difficult then
to imagine the tuimoil and quarreling
when the students are the only per
sons doing senous and unbiased
thinking.”
Under “Daddy’s” supeivis’on, Can
ton college, Penn State’s child in the
Ononl, is seeking to give China a
long-needed penod of lest by making
the gospel of the plow the gospel of
peace “Foreigneis’ attitudes of su
periority, the Hack 'of a basis'of
equahtv, are responsible foi much of
the unrest, but there are indications
now that such spuit is dying out.
Even in Ameiica the Chinaman is
looked down upon, but such a policy
will never remedy conditions China
must be npptoacircd on a basis of
equality!”

only a few men by graduation last
June, tire oichestru has almost the
same members as last year. These
experienced men, along with the new
men, will soon be able to put dn a
finished performance.
The present shortage among the
musicians is that of playeis on
stringed instruments Most of the
men on the brass instruments me
picked from the band members, but
it is always necessary to develop
some new men on the violins and
stung basses. Any applicants for
fust or second'violins, or for the
stunged basses 'arc requested to at
tend'the tryouts in the band loom
tonight Any person able to play a
viola is especially needed, for there
is none in the orchestra at present
Attempting to make each year
more successful than the previous
one, the leader of the oichcstra
stated that it is probable that the
oichestra will take two or three
tups this season This announce
