DOCTOR HETZEL DECRIES
LACK OF STATE SUPPORT
Movie Shows Overcrowded and
Unfit Buildings As Plea
For Amendment
Penn State men and women will
thaw themselves as actors and actress
es in the movies tomorrow night when
the local theater offers the premier
presentation of a special five-minute
news reel depicting campus scenes and
activities This picture will be re
leased in cities throughout the State
as a factor in the Bond Issue cam
paign.
When word was received Saturday
morning that the "trailer" had been
passed by the State Board of Censors,
College officials immediately ordered
sic duplicate reels printed. These
will be shown in theaters of leading
Pennsylvania cities prior to election
date, November G. It is probable that
the Penn State smile will be released
in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia late
this week.
Action scenes of all College ath
letic teams should prove of primary
interest everywhere the film is shoran,
it is believed. The football team mill
show how it prepares for a game by
the use of bucking machine, tackling
dummy and niimmages, with the full
coaching staff in charge Penn State's
football coach, Hugo Bezdek,
will ap
pear in a "close-up."
A humorous incident occurs fol
lowing the sub title, "A pair of box
ing champs on the football team—
Boxing Coach-Leo Houck is football
ttainer " Marty McAndrews and
Stele llamas spar playfully and are
separated by Coach Houck in a man
net that is conducive to laughter.
Scenes are also shown of the track,
lactosse and soccer teams in action,
r.hile the Penn State women athletes
receive their share of publicity in
hockey practice The sports picture
are preceded by the title, "A sound
mind needs a sound body—Hundreds
of athletes in action."
Opening Scene
"Tho Pennsylvania State College,
nestled among the scenic mountains
of centi al Pennsylvania, has one of
the most beautiful campus settings
of any American college," is the dis
play opening the five-ininute reel.
This is followed by a view of thu
Piont Campus and Old Main, whence
the scene changes to a panorama
photographed from the Old Main
tower.
To stress the fact that the Regis
ti ar was compelled to refuse ad
mission to mole qualified applicants
this year than the number entering
Penn State as freshmen, a scene of
the 1200 new students leaving Schwab
auditorium has been included. This
is followed by a statement that more
than this number were turned away
because of lack of facilities.
In order to strengthen the point
that the College is inadequately equip
ped, the campaign officials have in
cluded in a later part of the cinema
offering a statement by President
lalph D. Iletsel. It reads:
"In proportion to her weilth and
importance, Pennsylvania has invest
ed a sinallei amount - of public funds
in tier state college than any other
state in the Union."
Views of Buildings •
As further reason why Penn State
can admit less than half of the appli
cants, pictures of the overcrowded and
unfit buildings, such as Engineering F,
Chemistry Annex and the Track
House, have a part in the movie.
"The imMedinte need is for buildings
of a different type," is another state
ment to be flashed on the screen in
thenteis throughout Pennsylvania.
Vaisity Hall, Watts Hall, the Carnegie
Library, the 'Liberal Arts, Horticul
ture and Agriculture buildings ex
emplify this "ditreient type"
The five minutes of Penn State
movie entertainment will be climaxed
with a "faile-out" which, the campaign
officials believe, should prove a strong
facto• in putting the Bond Issue be
foie the people of Pennsylvania. It
is a pature of Penn State men and
women, standing In front of Schwab

Work 4 Fray Most Difficult
Of Entire Schedule
Combining fast formations with de
ceptive passing, Penn State's soccm
men have about completed then pre
season drills in preparation for what
is consideted to be the stiffest sched
ule that any college team has ever
faced.
Altoona Works team, which opens
the season here, Saturday afternoon,
is reputed to have the strongest team
in then history. The turn set of
defeats last season at the hands of
the Nittany hooters roes so great a
set back to the profesmonals that this
year in an attempt to redeem them
selves they have secured the services
of many stars from other teams in
the r =nay of Altoona. In the eyes
of Coach Jeffrey, they urn present
the strongest line-up that the Lion
team will face all season
All members of the team are ex
perienced men and hare achiesed
names for themselves in the profes
sional field. The mid-field combina
tion he considers Is one of the strong

Lions Loom Strong
Penn State will also present a for

line-up, with almost an entire let

HANSON DECRIES
LOSS OF IDEALS
Gettysburg head Declares Romance
Next to Worship of God as
retest Soul Emotion
"The saddest poison in the world
is a nine of middle age who has lost
his ideals," declared President Hen.
i y W A. Hanson of Gettysburg col
lege in his addless at chapel soma:
Sunday 'limning in Schwab ma'am
mm.
Choosing "Vanishing ITotizons" as
his subject, President Hanson point
ed out that the smut of adventure
prompts men to accomplish gloat
things, and when a in in loses that
spirit, he loses the influence which
makes him follow an ideal The
sphit of adtentme has disappeared
he said.
Dr. Hanson stated that romance
is the second vanishing hot mon
"Romance, next to the woislup of
Cod, is the finest thing in the human
soul," he declared in proving that
when one loses romance he loses the
tin ill of accomplishment. Finally,
the ability of npmeciating what is
woi thwhile is fast becoming unknown,
and the ti se meaning of liberty is
not understood President Hanson's
esplanation of "flog philosophy" de
fined man's hue place in the world,
syharna whew the annual produc
tion amounts to $200,000,000 He
added that Penn State °Reis the only
Louise of this kind in the State
When asked how the course at Penn
State computed with that olieoed at
other schools Dean Steidle answered,
''The faculty and the fundamentals
of the industry, as picsented
are as good as those offmed in any
other college, but we need money for
research wmk, in which line other
colleges have surpassed us."

"I think that the absence of in.an,

co-operation of the students taking

itselt, however; one roust have a
definite measuring stick, which in this

good idea to learn front the student
body, if it is possible, just what the
impio‘eil Stunt Night would embody
With this ma in mind one would per
haps he able to make an estimate of
any steps taken in this direction "
Dean war cock places. in the hands
of the student body any judgment to
be nude of Stunt Night "If the
actions of last Thursday night Is to
them a satisfactory infoi oral means
of introducing freshmen to Penn

success If the plans are along other
lines, then again the judgment rests
