ERIE EXTENSION SCHOOL
OPENS NOVEMBER FIRST
Will Ise Sixth of Its Kind in
Stale—Forty Students
Already Apply
“Bringing the College of the State
to the People of the State” for the
first time in this district, Penn State,
through the Department of Engineer
ing Extension, will open its Erie
Branch School in the Academy High
School Building on November first.
The new Erie School will he the
sixth of its kind to he opened in the
State. Other schools at Allentown,
Wilkesbarre, Scranton, Heading and
Williamsport, have been in successful
operation for a number of years.
Nearly eight hundred students were
enrolled in the various courses dur
ing the past season.
In the Penn State announcement,
the courses are described as “intensely
practical in nature; all theory not es
sential to the effective application of
the various subjects has been elimi
nated. As a result, the courses, while
less comprehensive, approach the prac
tical value of those taken by resident
students in the Engineering school.”
The work of the Penn State school
will in no way conflict with the oper
ation of the night schools already in
operation in Erie, according to Mr. E.
O. Keller, Supervisor of the Branch.
More than forty prospective students
have inquired concerning the course
since its announcement.

has been a now drive bespeaking top

Weston is receiving passes more
naturally and cleverly than previous
ly, while Slump is ranging far afield
on open plays. The work of Hastings
and Krall as interferes has been
commendable, as has been the destruc
tive defense of Mahoney. Munz, sta
tioned at right tackle, has improved
steadily and fits into the line nicely.
Bergman, a revamped backlield man,
has shown himself a veritable tower
of strength at tackle.

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
In addition to questions such ns the
above, Mr. llofTman is able to com
plete all necessary registration and
administrative tabulations in prob
ably one-tenth of the time formerly
required, and with a great reduction
in the amount of labor necessary.
Tlie machine stands >about fonrj
and a half feet high and is fed with
cards from the top. The cards, each
one containing data punched at as
signed spots, are sorted into any num
ber of classes up to twelve. Any or
dered index may be completed at the
rale of three hundred cards per min
ute. As an example, Mr. llofTnmn
pointed out the sorting of Summer
Session registration cards into an al
phabetical index. This work took
two. men three days to finish, while
the machine would be able to run off
the cards in one hour with one man
feeding the machine. .
A mouth was taken to complcto
the registration by courses and alpha

417 of the regular catalog, while Mr.
Hoffman intimates that this work
could be accomplished in a day, with
one man tending the mechanical sort
