“If my boys don’t get excited and
lose themselves they have a chance
against Bellefonte,” Coach Hermann
remarked. “There’s no doubt that
they are the toughest opponents on
our card because they will outweigh
us, they are experienced footballers
and they have an unblemished season
behind them. McCracken and Joe
Miller are ready to tear after a long
lay-off. Yes, our chance is slim but
it’s there if my plebes find them
selves.”

CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS
DROPS FORTY STUDENTS
Charging the decrease in the num
ber of students of the School of
Chemistry and Physics to the high
scholastic standards required by that
school, Dean G. L. Wendt announced
the number of students dropped be
cause of poor scholarship.
During the first semester of last
year twenty students were dropped
while twenty-seven were taken from
the lists the second semester. The
sophomores were the heaviest suffer
ers with a total of thirty-eight. Nine
teen freshmen, four juniors and one
senior were dropped.

Clashes With Marietta
(Continued from first page)
day the daily battle between varsity
and scrubs was resumed. Hamas tore
huge holes through the scrub line, as
did Wolff. The linemen proved that
they were pond lilies by riding out the
opposition from the scene of action on
their backs.
Faulkner Replaces Curry
Cy Faulkner, who started the initial '
game of the season at left end, won j
his way back to the varsity and will be j
stationed at his old post tomorrow. ]
Lesko will play the other flank, while
Curry will be held in reserve.
Munz and Greenshields are being
hard pressed by Bergman but will
open the game in their accustomed
position at tackle. Hastings and Joe
Krall are teaming excellently at the
guard posts but are not consistent as
yet. Mahoney has handled wet balls
all week and will acquit himself crel
isafcly at center should bad weather
conditions prevail tomorrow.
Although Bez is undecided as to
which backfield is the better, Pin’s
quartet will receive the call. The Lun
gren, Harrington, Green, Roepke com
bination has been shattered by the
loss of Roepke, who has been replaced
by Hewitt.
Filak, star tackle, scrimmaged dur
ing the week to condition himself for
the Syracuse game, for which he will
be eligible. Dangerfield, on the side
lines, with an injured shoulder, ap
peared in light togs and went through
sprints and dummy drills with the
squad. Captain Weston, out with a
twisted knee, is slowly improving and
should be ready for the Notre Dame
game.
Slamp and Delp are still in the grip
of Dame Misfortune and have as yet
been unable to heal their twisted
joints. Johnny Roepke, blond half
back, injured in the Lebanon Valley
game, was sent to a specialist in Phil
adelphia. An operation to set his
cheek-bone was successful, hut he will
be definitely out of football for two
weeks.
Marietta Loses Opener
The Marietta eleven opened their
season under a cloud, dropping a med
iocre game to Oberlin, 27-0. The Blue
and White gridders put up a plucky
but losing fight. In several stages
of the game the Marietta line showed
power, once stopping the Oberlin of
fensive within their twenty-yard mark.
Coach Griffith’s team held Penn State
to a 13-0 victory last year and hopes
to repeat or better this feat.

TEACHERS ENROLL FOR
EXTRA-MURAL COURSES
With school teachers in thirty-four
Pennsylvania cities enrolled in classes
for the study of extra-mural courses
with the College, a record year in this
outside service gets under way this
week.
In many cities the classes have al
ready started, and in an additional
ten there are groups of teachers and
school officials preparing for this co
operative service. Almost seven
thousand teachers were enrolled in
these classes last year.
So great has become the demand
for college credit courses to be taken
; by teachers in their home towns that
the college has found it nccesnry to
establish teacher training branch of
fices in Pittsburgh, Altoona, Harris
burg and Erie.
A BETTER METHOD OF BUYING
Food is always nccesary. It can
either be bought in a haphazard way
or it can be purchased in a thorough,
systemitized manner. When buying
.it is always best to order from a
wholesale house. They buy it so
much cheaper than the retailer that
they can therefore let you have it at
correspondingly lower prices.
Fye’s Wholesale' Grocery Company
is such a wholesaler. He buys oy
carload lots. Ho can soil you groc
eries in any quantity at a better price
than others who buv in smaller lots.

ervoir which stood about where the
tennis courts are located at the end of
Beaver Field, was the college’s source
of water supply. The pump house
constituted the mechanic arts depart
ment where students were instructed
in carpentry and joinery. All other
instruction was given in Old Main, the
chemistry and physics laboratories be

rooms on the first and second floors.

“The farm superintendent's • resi
dence and the barn were the only
buildings outside the campus which at
that time extended from the drive
way at the main entrance to a fence
which ran down in front of the pres
ent site of McAllister Hall. Another
bam stood about where the Liberal
Arts building has been erected.
“The plot of ground occupied by the
Armory was a vineyard and small
fruit garden where freshmen were
given horticultural practicum, inci
dentally, obtained many a feed of lus
cious grapes and other fruits. The
apple orchard, some of tho trees of
which still stand to the right and
rear of the Liberal Arts building, fur
nished opportunities for learning the
art of pruning and destruction of bor
ers. The “Ghost Walk” was then two
roms of pine trees scarcely shoulder
high, affording protection to the nur
sery in the ground occupied by the
Woman’s Building, where budding,
grafting and growing seedlings were
practiced. The present Botany build
ing had not yet been - built but the
flower garden, as it had been origin
ally laid out almost twenty years be
fore, and which still is preserved, was
kept in order but with less care than
today.

Welcome Dads
These are wonderful days for Dads. Once more
they have an opportunity to spend a week end with their
sons. Up here in the mountains they will have a chance
to get away from the cares and troubles of business.
Treat your Dads well, boys, while they are here.
Show them TRUE Penn State hospitality. Make sure
that they do not miss a thing that goes on.
Dads are still Boys at heart, and they will want to
root for the football team as much as the undergrads.
Put your Dad in the middle of the cheering sectioon. If
you are a Freshman let your Dad sit in the Freshman
Stands. He will appreciate it.
Show your Dads everything ,on the campus and
around town. Let them get acquainted with the'profs,
whose classes you are in and the merchants with whom
you deal,
“Whitey” is going to hold “open house”. While you
are in class let your Dads hang out in Whitey’s and ‘bull’
just as you do in your of f-hours.

were members of a boarding blab*
which had its quarters in Old Main.
All the students lived in that building,
one to a room. The furnishings of the
rooms consisted of an iron bedstead
and an empty bed tick which the new
student took to the barn and filled
with straw. In each room there was
a table, chest of drawers and chairs.
Oil lamps were the means of illumni
nation. Carpets, curtains or other
furnishings had to be supplied by the
students. Beds had to be made and
rooms placed in order for inspection
by eight o’clock every morning. The
steam heating plant was inadequate
for the entire building.. The students
who had rooms on the fifth floor had
to stuff the cracks in the windows
with paper or rags, don their over
coats and snuggle up to the radia
tors to enjoy any degree of comfort
during the winter season.
“The east end of Old Main was par
titioned off as living and recitation
quarters for the preparatory students,
which then outnumbered those taking
the collegiate courses. This partition
was about the only line of demarca
tion between the two student bodies,
the members of each fraternizing with
the other outside of school hours and
joining in tho few diversions and pas
times then provided.
“The cadet organization consisted
of but one company, including both
