Student opinion, especially, is being ays taih-’ed throughout the country as a valuable index oi sentiment. ]■! o and con. From all indications on the Penn State campus, m session, and even in more serious discussions, the subject of the nation’s cmti\ into the Couit, like every national or international question, is piat-tically non-existent. When questioned as to his personal opinion on the sublet, one representative undeigiaduate lephed. ‘ Ves, I think the League would be a good thing.” If the same nn.n ueio as unintoimed on othei subiects he would leply, in answer to a query on his attitude toward grapefruit, “I'm quite ior.d ot oranges.” The instance is typical, typical of a mental omrolonco on the part of ten men out ot ten or. the campus when confronted with a woild problem. The entry oi this countiy into the Court i.> not a far-awaj, impel<\viai 'ssue: it is a living question that demands the stud’ . ud thought of evciy pci son capable of study and thought—in cluding Penn State students Moi cover, inlciest in the Court t'ces not i cqunc an “intei national rami" From the most famihai standpoint, the puiply selfish, the question compels consideration On the one hand it is claimed that the Couit will be a prolific souiee ot war; on the other, acceptance is expected to end all war And war, viewed either by the pacifist or the mihtawst, is at least mtei estmg In a few weeks Penn State will be asked for its verdict. Will it be forthcoming? And will it be well-consKleied‘ ; ALUMNI AND NOTRE DAME The Nittany Valley is icstless. It vibiatcs with expectancy and tin ills with the thought ot the monow. Thousands of loyal ahimni will return to their Alma Matoi to lenew old acquaint ances, to sec those who have taken then places in the undet grad uate body and to witness a ferocious Lion do battle against a group oi Notre Dame football warnois who have made giidiron histoiy Never before m the aichives of Penn State has such a bu/a of excitement swept the campus on the eve of an Alumni Homecoming Day. Penn State welcomes these loyal alumni back to its folds. It '-loots them with open aims, and sincerely hopes that this event v i!! be nnc never to bo forgotten. And the Lion thiows open tlici dcci of hospitality to Notre Dame—may they also be impicsserl v if’ the gicatness of Penn State. Let Blue and White prevail. ] et every loyal student sport the colors of his Alma Mater, for we must make Alumni and Notie Dame feel at home. The College is >ouis for the asking.
