Coach Hugo Bezdek has tiaincd his Lions to the point of per fection. and a dcteimined eleven will tread upon the gridnon in Aiehuo. ’ Stadium Fifteen hundred students will sit m the grandstand playing then small pait in the battle that v ill go on before them. May both the team and the student body do then share in bringing back to the Nittany Valley fame and gloiv BLASPHEMY The depaitmc of Dr Mel/.gei to take up his duties at Rutgcis has once more brought the subject of daily chapel under the cntical scrutiny of the student body. The pi evading sentiment is that Penn State has been peculiarly foitunate during the past two >eais in having a man of Dr. Metzgei’s calibei to conduct the services, but that even undei these ciicumstanccs daily chapel has been little moie than endurable, and that the question is not one of a chaplain, but of chapel. When the pow-ers that be secured Chaplain Metzgei two veils s>go to devote his entire energy toward making something of daily chapel, they substantially admitted that chapel, as it then existed, was iaulty. In the ex-chaplain Penn State seemed an able man, but morning chapel continued faulty. There can be but one con clusion, the COLLEGIAN subscribes in the almost unanimous; sentiment of the undei graduates The successful operation ot daily chapel as it now stands is beyond the poweis ot any one man, of any dozen men on earth. Almost cveiy man and woman at Penn State has been ic quiied to attend Sunday school As children, they were allowed little choice in the mallei on the leasonable assumption that they could not recognize what was good tor them. Attendance was by h quest. At the present moment Penn State men and women are attending morning chapel, a senseless foim. by demand In theoiv, morning chapel is designed as a ten-minute period for priyci and spnitual inspiration—a thing eminently desnable Actually, howevor, it is a len-mmutc penod of after-lneakfast lethargy, hasty scanning of text books, of taculty announcements, of apologies from those sentenced by the Tribunal, of half hearted mouthings of hymns and prayers—a thing childish, a thing meaningless, a thing little short ot open blasphemy. YES, WE HAVE NO There aie no woids m Webster adequate to dcscnbc the con-; tcmptiblc tactics ol some of Penn State’s "honored and respected" undergraduates who. m then mad zeal to purchase tickets for the Notie Dame football game, sank to the depths of degradation. And. sad to state, the woithy seniors are largely to blame foi they v ere the ones w'ho stood m line putting ficshman and sophomoie t oupons in upperclass books, thcieby purchasing as many as fiMeen and twenty tickets and depriving many of theii classmates ot choice seats When the gieed of some students is so easilv* manifest, then it p. time for the Athletic Association to lake the tickets out in <-omo open field, toss them high in the air and permit the paste board "grabbers” to stage a grand rush. While nrnnv of the seniors who failed to obtain seats in the 1926 section are nursing their feelings in back of the goal posts, the culputs will lie chuck ling merrily, with no thought of the next fellow. The cleverness which obtained the extra tickets speaks well for the offenders. It is to be hoped that their undei hand tactics will serve them m good stead in after life when they join their partners in ciookcd ne«s With the Notre Dame clash attracting nation-wide attention, alumni the country over have been clamoring for tickets, and it is only right that they should receive them since the game will be staged on Alumni Day However, the committee on seating arrangements, working in conjunction with the graduate man ager of athletics, devised a plan wherebv all giaduates could be accommodated, and choice seats would still remain for membcis of the two uppei classes But now the Athletic Association must HI alumni ordcis with seats at the ends of the field, and many unpei classmen must suffer because ot the inconsiderate actions of their classmates. Since it is too late to cry over spilt milk, those who failed to l pceivo the best seats must be content with what is given them, v hilc the Athletic Association sits back and prays foi the pass ing of November seventh when its worries will be over.
