CULTURE ON I'ARADE
Fortunately, and for the first time in years.
someone knew enough about Academic Proces
sions to have Tuesday evening's cap-and-gown
parade run oft according to whoever-the-author
ity-is. We know not who to blame for former
mistakes: neither do we know the name of the
recipient of the praises which we are about to
heap on this unknown head. But we do know
Some light can be cast upon the parentage of the
Academic Procession.
The illustrious parade which all graduates
hope some day to endure is an offspring of the
ancient church procession, which began with the
lesser personages and ended with the High Priest,
his symbol, and the other "biimitaries.'"the co•-
rect. order for the procession of the church's child.
then, would be to have the lowly graduates take
the lead, with the faculty and the Commencement
speaker occupying the places of importance at the
extreme end of the column. Happily, this pro
cedure was observed Tuesday evening for the first
time (luring our four-year period of expectancy.
Praise be to the unknown but educated brain
which raised this favorite child from the gutter of
illegitimacy tc the scat of the righteous firstborn.
- We, however, have done with praise. We
cannot comment upon the manner in which ad
vanced degrees were conferred. It is proper, by
the book, to have these candidates wear the plain
black rap and gown and to assume the hood of the
new title only at the instant of its being presented
at the time the advanced degree is conferred. Two
candidates approached the conferrer of degree:;
properly attired; the remainder assumed the hood
before the degree had been granted. May we
hope for correctness in the future?
'-DO WE KNOW IT?
THE "BEST'
Efreni %Arnimlist. a world-renowned muician,
has been able to extend his national tour to in
clude an audience at Peon State. But. on Wed
nesday night. will Zimbalist's beautiful music
strike the hearts of an attentive, appreciative au
dience. or will his mellow notes strike back at him
from an expanse of empty seats?
The Artists' Entertainment Course has not
had the support from the student body which the
exceptional program warrants; Wednesday night
will indicate the real standard of the mental cali
ber with which Penn State' credits itself. Zim
halist, famous over the globe, is at our command;
his performance is the biggest, most promising
feature on the entertainment program.
What this student body needs before all else
is the ability to know and appreciate the best, the
classic. The coming of Zimbalist is'an immense
opporl unity.
THE BELLES. BELLES. BELLES
Well. they're in again. Try as we will, we
can't keep them away—(because there isn't any
thing doing 'anywhere else this week-end.) But
since they're here, there's no getting rid of them
tilt Sunday afternoon. We must, therefore, ex
tend the two hands of courtship and bid them wel
come. So one—two—three—all together, now:
"Thanks for coming!"
The old stuff about extending the two strong
:u•ms of a proud and happy host greeting his
guests- 7 4hp nld gush about free rein (which, any-
way. is a lot of bunk)—we o ill dispense with.
We're glad you girls have arrived to inspect the
College, and incidentally to be present at that big
ges:. and best social function of our graduating
lass—the Senior Ball. For without your pros-,
211 CC, it would be a staggering flop. Thank you,
one and all. \lay somebody bless every one of
you; those we know and those we don't know.
UnlesF. you have been here before. your edu
;2atiop has been discretely neglected. But we will
cxlucate you: walk with us. As you promenade
tir the sidewalks of the main entrance to the cam
pus. the rock pile is most emphatically NOT only
rock pile—there is something mysterious about
ii which even we do not know. Revere it. then.
Mu red brick building which hides behind it may
br compared to the gray palace which occupies the
ground 'hither side of the drive: both buildings
arc gymnasiums—one physical. the other mental.
The next building on the left is the library, in
which you may find every book now published ex
:alit the unexpurgated edition of "Alice in Won
derland." Next on the left is the greenhouse for
budding bookkeepers. (Note: these buildings will
undoubtedly be called by other. and MO N! Opproll
- names. but don't ladieve the things you
:lop't see in print.)
To retrace our pleasant steps toward New
Beaver Field, (please do a right-about: please!),
we must interest you again in the. physical gym
nasium. It is here that you will spend this even
ing. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy our
Senior Ball, and that you will carry fond memories
back to Passyunk Avenue. And no doubt you will.

blue box effect. Well, Smithers, it's gray no more. I was

err, ouick on the little things. With one look I emit see
that the students were coining front class. That free,
easy expression, those relieved sighs, that unconquerable
haste. They could mean only one thing. After the first
wave had passed I moved away front the wall. My coat
seemed adhered to it. I looked at the coat. Alas! It
was stick{. It was wet. And Smithers, it was no longer
gray! Yes, you've guessed it. Wet paint. Bet I wasn't

Armory waifs. I didn't see any heated coins, though.
Nice, economical. orderly. civil ante game, eh, Bulloso
