"ALL FRESHMEN OUT"
Eveiy yeas each College extra-curricular ac
tivity summon,•, candidates for the various manag
erial and ether executive positions. Every year
a number that approaches the half-hundred mark
iesponds to the res9ective calls. Two years later
the most gifted and IN orthy candidate finds him
self elevated to the position to which he once as
pired uhile he was but one of the ouginal halt
hunch ed.
During the same period. a limited group aie
doomed to drappointment They are of the host
that tried and failed Even though an individual
"lost out" he gained invaluable assets—experience
and friends. These lead to greater assets—ex
perience to personality and fiicnds to happiness
A college education is neser contained solely
in books. The student ,who puts in night after'
night extracting knowledge from educational
tomes gets Just a hat he seeks—knowledge. The
student who combines "cracking the books" with
satin-curricular activity becomes learned and at
the same time develops a personality. Of the two
—the most important is personality, intangible
but positive in its effects.
Tonight the COLLEGIAN issues a call for fresh
men candidates fm the business staff. To each
freshman who answeis will come an opportunity
for practical experience in modern business meth
ods, follov,ing tr meliminary six reeks' training
cool cc.
Previous expenence is not necessary. Wil
lingness to learn is the sole qualification. Men
well-Nerscd in the three depmtments of the busi
ners end of this paper will give weekly courses
pertannor, to work that will be required of the
candidates. At the conclusion of the course the
net. vsph ant% will assume the regular duties of
fie , ,hmen business men.
At the end of the fieshman year, the Rpm en
flee period, the candidates will encounter, with
their sophomore status, more specialized work
Late in then sophomore year, four outstanding
candidates will advance to the sole of assistant
business manager", A year later a business man
ager. an advertising manager, a eirculatioa man
ager and an assistant-circulation manager will be
chosen.
. Men in the business world in e unanimous ip
tho;clechuatmn that experience and personality
arc the biggest factors in success. Both are the
reward to: hard and constant endeavor. Experi
ence and pm sonality are waiting for the ambitious
oner who venture into the field of extra-curricular
acto, ity while undergi aduates in college.
Opportunity, so it is said, knocks but once.
Oppoi Lundy will knock vathin the hearing dis
tance of many freshmen tonight. This oppor-,
tunity is a golden one Like ell othci opportunity
it, too, knocks but once.
CAN WE CLAIM CULTURE?
The saying goes that Dame Fortune has hair
only on the anterim portion of her head, the pos.
tenor section being bald. Which is Just a round
about way of saying that tomorrow Penn State
students have an opportunity to hear one of the
world's most famous musicians and anyone ne
glecting to avail himself of the oppoitundy is
wasting a Nsonderfully brilliant smile from Dame
Fortune
Eircm Zimbalist, whose mellow notes have
charmed peoples all over the world, at Penn State ,
What an opportunity! Ate we going to take ad
vantage of it? Will we lend ourselves to that
magic spell which the true musician alone can
weave, or hill those enchanting melodies beat
themselves upon row after row of empty seats?
Peer State's cultural pulse will be tested tomor
iou. Will it throb strong and full, or will it show
that out College education is failing in one of its
most fundamental objectives—the instilling of
that intangible something which recognizes and
appreciates art and the genius?
The Artists' Entertainment Course has not
received the support this year which its merit
deserves. The program is exceptional, it includes
only the best, the worth while. What could be
more deserving of the student body's unqualified
backing? College students, trained to appreciate
the ability of others, should need no urging to at
tend such entertainment as the one tomorrow will
afford.
The turnout at the first recital of the Winter
Concert Course Sunday proved that Penn State
students can appreciate things of cultural value.
The audience was sympathetic and appreciative,
callinf, forth the best from its enter tamers. Why
cannot such support be accorded visiting artists?
tomorrow night we will learn conclusively wheth
ce or not Penn State students know the best when
it is oil cred them. Shall we view the shining por
tion of Dame Poi tune's pate knowing that a great
opportunity has been lost, or shall we take advant
age of this immense occasion? Penn State your
cultural training challenges you!

"FOR REFERENCE USE ONLY"
Wr lead in the Daily Cardinal of the Univer
sity of. Wisconsin that a man has been expelled
from college for taking a reserve book from the
readini, room of the library. Through this some
of our own selfish students who insist on borrow
ing reseive books should see the serious natm e of
then• offense.
W. I.4nd. Jr. '2B
P P. Sma!tz '2B
The judsrment meted out by the University of
Wisconsin authonties for the infraction of this
"for reference use only" t ule is not unjustifyable.
Recognition of other people's tights and property
is essential to a college trained man and the lesson
taught by this case of expulsion should impress
itself upon each individual. We hope that no
-Millar action will be necessary at Penn State but
v precedent has been set.
