WATCHING AND HOPING
Within a short time, last.minute arrangements
will have been completed, \,ith the visual hustle and
bustle, in preparation for the !fillius of hundreds ot I
visitors from all parts of Pennsylvania and surrounu
ing states. Festivities will have begun, books will'
have been tigntly closed and forgotten amidst the
swirl of high-pressure but unexcelled entertainment.;
Laughter and gayety will be the password every.,
where. Revelry will be on view in all its entirety;
carefree smiles will replace worries of the eight-weeks
period A Penn State House Party now awaits the,
heal gong with a look of pleasurable anticipation;
beaming forth from every corner.
The week-end, with its customary festivity, is an
extremely important occasion to the College feel
hundreds of visitors here will carry back tidings oti
all the happenings here during the period of then I
stay. The stories will be told and rc-told What
will be the nature of the incidents that will be related
by the returning guests' The answer rests solely
on the students, It should not be necessary to in
struct the participants of the holiday celebrations
regarding the where's and why's of their conduct dur
ing the week-end. incidents that delight the heart
of the scandal-monger are the result of thoughtless
ness by a few men The average Penn State student
has reached an age where he is of sulhcient intelli
gence to discern beta= acts that aid in the general
advancement of the College and those that drag
down its good name because of the deportment of
the unthinking tew
Penn State students have much to gain by the
fulfillment of the week-end activities ip a manner
befitting true gentlemen This College bases the ma
jor part of its recognition in the outside world by
the contact that is made upon visitors into the Nit
tany Valley One can only sit back and hope, that
the impresiions that will be carried away by the many
visitors here this meek-end, will be instrumental in
adding to the growing prestige of the institution
TODAY IS THE DAY!
Student opinion has been sought and the result
may be found on any one of the several thousand
questionnaires that were distributed among the stu
dent body Sunday. Today the questionnaires will
be collected and checked for the purpose of ascer
taming the pi opei solution for the gap made in Cain
pus religious affairs when compulsory daily chapel
was quietly given its release as an undesirable.
Perhaps the majority of the students may be
lieve that there are sufficient number of religious op
portunities offered on the campus at the present
time Then again, perhaps the majority may think
that the contrary is true. One guess is as good as an
other Some may first favor the abolition of coin
pulsory Sunday chapel (heresy') before anything
can be done about finding a mid-week substitute.
The majority may want Sunday compulsory chapel
retained. At the present time, it is just a question
of hazarding an opinion. Until the questionnaires
can be collected and checked nothing definite can
be taken for granted.
r 1 he questionnaires have probably been resting
peacefully beneath a pile of papers in various rooms
since Sunday. It should be the duty of every stu
dent to make certain that his opinion is contained
on a questionnaire. When this is accomplished the
answered questions should be dropper in any one of
the three hoses designated for that purpose. But
it should be done today!
INCIDENTS THAT ESTABLISH REPUTATIONS
The Associated Press carried dispatches to every
important newspaper throughout the United States
last week relative to the story of good sportsmanship
as exhibited by the Penn State football team to the
game with Bucknell earlier in the season. 01 course,
the source of the tale was Lewisburg and Bucknell
university, - Ain. I root Lev g th,,t ihe press
ticker, rattled oft the otory to hundred, of news
papers that Penn State was guilty of displaying un
parallelled sportsmanship on the field of battle dur
ing the encounter between the two neighboring in
stitution,
It is cosy to sec that when daily newspapers in
clude complimentary words of the above description
concerning Penn Stste, it is worth inestimable dol
lars in substantial advertising for the College. It
is gratifying to know that our opponents do not hes
itate to inform the world of this somewhat curious
incident

One cannot help but believe that the defeat by
Bucknell, unexpected as it was, turned out to be a
boomerang of good repute for the Nittany Lions.
Since that time, the Pennsvhania. Syracuse and La
layette games have more than repaid any humiliation
that might have been experienced when the 7 hunder
mg Herd front Lewisburg dashed to a well-earnea
decision on that memorable Saturday early in Octo
ber. In addition to the fact that the Bucknell team
displa}ed a clean branu of football, the hundreds of
students who followed their favorite team behaved
themsehes exceptiorvillv well alter an astounding
football upset had been recorded. Then, several
weeks later, the tale of high-class sportsmanship
found itself into Associatc,d Press dispatches and the
world was informed
