TUESDAY, OCTOBER 5,192 G
A LITTLE SUN ON DADS’ DAY
On April twenty-seventh, theie appeal ed m
the columns of this paper an article calling atten
tion to a glaring infraction of Penn State courtesy.
The keynote of that letter was an appeal for the
discontinuing of the practice ot charging Penn
State Dads ioi admission to athletic contests on
“then day.”’
The Athletic Association saw fit to disiegaul
this diiect criticism at that time, perhaps foi
reasons which, it made public, would justify the
action. Howevci, in the absence of a successful
refutation ot the facts in the leltei, it is not un
reasonable that Penn State students should con
tinue to consider the action of the Athletic Asso
ciation on such occasions as Dads’ Day a bleach
of hospitality.
When alumni return on their day, they ex
pect to be charged admission to athletic events
They are willing to pay admission, because they
know that expenses for these contests add up to
a considerable sum. Dads, too, aie willing, but
with Dads, the situation assumes a different as
pect. They came to inspect the college to which
they have sene their sons and daughters; they
come at the request ot the College and should be
enlci turned as guests
On Saturday, Penn State will be host to a
large number of Dads. Entertainments have
been planned to acquaint them with the hospital
ity which is Penn State’s. To make them part
with a single penny for entertainment would cast
discredit upon the entire occasion. Unless the
Athletic Association can pioduce some justifica
tion for their present policy, it is no moie than
right that the lathers of us all should be entci
tained, not assessed.
WALTER CAMP AND PENN STATE
With the reopening of college classiooms
throughout the country and the advent of the fa
milial dull thud of shoe-leathci against pigskm on
a thousand athletic fields comes the announce
ment lrom the Walter Camp Memorial Committee
that “Walter Camp Day” is to be celebrated m
every section of the country as a signal maik of
respect to the memoiy ot the man who did so
much to make iootball the pic-cmincnt American
college game.
Out of deference to the wishes of athletic
councils in various sections of the countiy, no one
day has been set aside by the committee for gen
eral observance, but each community has been al
lowed to designate its own date foi the memorial.
The Thanksgiving Day clash between Pittsburgh
and Penn State has been named ‘’Waller Camp
Day” lor the Panther and the Lion
The observance of “Waller Camp Day” is a
part of the plan whereby the colleges and universi
ties of the entire nation aie uniting under the
auspices ot the National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation with the alumm of Yale university to
raise a fund of §300.000 foi the erection of a mon
umental Walter Camp Memorial Gateway as an
entrance to the Yale bowl and other athletic fields
at Now Ilaven On either side of the huge gate
way will bo great bronze panels on which will be
cut the names of colleges and universities contrib
uting to the fund. The committee, headed by E
K. Hall, of Dartmouth, chairman of the Football
Rules Committee, is bending every effort to have
on these panels the name of every institution in
America whole football is played today, in order
that this tribute to the memory of the “Father
of American Football” may be tiuly a national
memorial.
There is no doubt that Walter Camp was a
cogent force in placing college football in its pres
ent position as the gieatest American college sport,
that the proper place for a mcmounl dedicated to
him is at the entrance to the Yale bowl and that
each college and university should contribute lo
waid the Walter Camp Memorial fund. There is
no common knowledge of any plans which have:
been made for Penn State’s contribution, but we
feel that the Athletic Association will give to that
fund an amount of money which will indicate the
esteem in which Penn State men hold the memory
of Walter Camp, the greatest foice in the elevation
of college athletics since their inception.
WIfAT PRICE GLORY?
Each chapter of Pi Delta Epsilon, national
collegiate journalistic fraternity, is required by
the constitution of that fraternity to publish a
literary mag.tzine at least once a year. At the!
annual convention of the organization, mention
is made of the publication which is adj'udged best
by tlio national ofiicors of the fraternity.
At the convention in California in September,
the Penn State representative was called upon to
stand and receive congratulations for his entire
chapter—the court of Pi Delta Epsilon had placed
the OKI Main Bell at the top of the list’ The Old
Main Bell—Penn State's literal y magazine—cal
led the best of them all! What price glory?
An honor is ti uly an honor, no mattei'
upon whom it is bestowed. The Penn State chap
ter of Pi Delta Epsilon knows that pioper appre
ciation is shown their efforts by their iratermty,
biit the chapter also would like to see that appre
ciation manifest in its own college. “A piophet
is vuthout glory m his own country.”
The Old Main Bell is to be published twice
dining the piescnl College year. Doubtless. Pi
Delta Epsilon will again go into debt because of
the great lack ol student support. But if Penn
State students aio mfoimed that the Old Main
Beil is the best college literary magazine in the
country, will they hesitate to buy? Or will they
admit their sophomoiome tendencies and spend
their half-dollars lot Whiz-Bang or College Hu
mor? What price glory?

A BROTHER OR A BOTHER?
What will become of fraternities when their
faculty adv isors cease to function? Well, to ans
wer with another question, what is becoming of
iiatcrmtics now?
What has become of the chapter advisor?
Doe-, he cvci appear for anything except to have
his pictuie in the La Vie photograph or to stand
mound with Ins wife and try to act as a chaperon
ioi the chapter dance?
Is it not the duty of chapter advisors to in
spect financial matters of the diffeient depart
ments of then respective organizations? Is it
not their duty to supeivise all deliberations which
tend to become nriportant in the conduct of their
chapteis? I? it not their function to be truly ac
tive biotheis/ It certainly is.
Why do not these important officers discharge
their duty? Some of them do, we grant you, but
most of them do not. And why? Ask them.
They’ll tell you. So will we. It’s because they
either knovv oi think that the active brothers don’t
give a hoot for the opinions of men wiser than we
mcxpencnccd youths Oiten their suspicions are
correct, they can be confirmed by a visit to a
chapter meeting.
The chapter advisor is not a necessary evil;
ho is a necessary good. Why not give him a
chance and think of him as a big brother instead
of a big bother.’
A FINANCIER REMEMBERS A
CHILDHOOD ACQUAINTANCE
The vvoid Mother!
What a vvoi kl of love it calls forth
To apall the mind with its worth!
Far beyond the power of another
To obtain or hold
Its valve lies in its rarity.
And the joys it recalls, and the aid
It gives as we face life youthfully unafraid—
These fine qualities multiply its parity
Far beyond mere gold.
Suicly I will be paid for my enterprise
Ifl can find a company to capitalize
Which on Mother’s things will specialize.
There will be Mammy songs and lullabies, . 1 '
Mother’s flapjacks, cakes and/pies,-T- y ]
Many more of “Mother’s” makings I’ll devise"
And have good men their manufacture vaporize.
