THE LION ROARS A WELCOME
Today and tomonovv Penn State again grips the hands of its
“Dads” m a hearty clasp The week-end, anticipated by both
latheis and sons, has become an annual institution and an impoit
anl c\ent on the College Calendar. It is a time ot glouous min
ion loi “chip” and the “old block” in a youthful, careiiee cmiron
ment.
Fathers’ Day offeis to those Dads who ne\ci attended college
an opportunity to bask in the sunlight of undeigiaduate hte, even
though only tor a short time And to those Dads who boast oi
.in Alma Matei, the event is a icspite from the busy world, a few
lleeting houi s spent m the days of the golden past
The Nitlany lion, that loidly ruler of Pennsylvania's fastness
es, iccogni/.os its keepeis. Although cagelcss. it bows to the will
ot the men who dictate its actions Penn State offeis all its hos
pitality in entertaining its guests and the COLLEGIAN joins with
the College and the student body in welcoming the men who make
Penn State possible »
SPIRIT FOR SPIRIT’S SAKE
Two yeais ago, when Penn State spirit was becoming frayed
and moth-eaten, Student Council inaugurated a Spirit Week dur
ing which all customs weic to be observed rigidly undei tippet -
class supemsion The object of the institution w-as to elevate the
status ot customs and traditions to the lank which these impoit
ant factoi sin Penn State’s life had occupied m past years I/ist
spung. because ot adverse conditions, Spmt Week was discontin
ued This vear, however, Spuit Week is with us again; not because
of lassitude in the obsei vance of customs, not because Penn State
“snn it” is on its deathbed, but because of the l.ussez fan e atti
tude tow aid eveiy thing prevalent among members of the two
lovvei classes Sophomoies as well as fieshmen aie taken into
(onsideiation in the Spirit Week of 1926 and the success of the
institution depends not only on the upper classes but also on the
sceond-v ear men
Doth sophomores and freshmen are tcquired compulsonlv to
be piescnt at the Pushball Scrip Wednesday afternoon They
are also to be numbeied among those in line m the paiama parade
Thursday night And on Fnday afternoon, pioviding the Push
ball Scrip is lost to the fieshmen, all second-year men must ex
change hats foi dinks with the yeailings and spend the houis be
tween twelve and six under the contiol of the triumphant hisL
ycar.men.
It is repot ted that some sophomores cast disdainful glances
at the progiam for Spilt Week; they feel that they aie being re
moved iiom their position as loidly overseers. ..Student Council
says that this is not the case and gives as its reason simply the
pi emotion of the “duty” tiadition in a mannei which adds a spoil
ing 1 lav or to the entire affair When these disgruntled sopho
mores foi get the element of peisonal displeasuie which they
wionglv connect with the Spirit Week icgulations, when they
lorget the fact that they will be guilty of a flagrant offense
and answerable to the Student Tnbunal it these rules aie not Ihoi
oughly obsei vcd. then Spirit Week will assume the high rank m
Penn State tiadition foi which it was originally intended.
When the tew who think then personal pude will suffer a
tall cluunq Spuit Week coolly analyse the question, vve know thev
will icadilv accede to the view held by the Council—that Spuit
Week is a healthy child in the cradle of Penn State tradition anti
with piopci caic and consideration, it will become a lojceful
youngster, not strong-willed, not self-indulgent, but intelligent
and useful.
THE SOURCE CONSIDERS ITSELF
A new idea in rcg.ud to Sophomoie Proclamations came to
light in Tuesday evening’s Student Council session. It was sug
gested. instead ot having the sophomoie class loot the pi inting bill
and sell posters haphazardly to individual yearlings, that at second
semester registration a small amount to be added to the required
tecs of treshmen in ordei that all first-yeai men would i cceive the
proclamations, having paid tor them in advance.
In making such a suggestion, the sophomore class becomes a;
wide-awake oigani/ation There has been, in times past, an op
portunity to bolster the class tiensuiy by means ot proclamation
sales Also theie has been the chance that dishonest committee
men may profit by petty grafting tactics The amount thrown
into the sophomoie coflers nevei exceeded a few dollars hereto
fore, since many yearlings escaped purchasing the pioclamations
If the suggested impiovcment gets the consent of Student
Council, every freshman will leceive a proclamation at the expen
dituio of a sum vvhjch piobably will not exceed twenty-five cents,
a decrease in cost ol moie than fifty per cent of the puce recently
chaiged the class of 1928 The sophomore class loses only a lew
“ironmen” and gains m prestige by the elimination of the person
al element The gain entirely overshadows the loss, the new
scheme lessens the cost of the proclamations and the amount of
labor connected with their sale. Student Council would do well to
approve the suggestion.
