Of Proposed Plan
PITTSBURGH JOURNALIST
FINDS SCANT OPPOSITION
Connellsville Courier Declares
College's Project Most
Outstanding Need
Editorial writers of both large and
small newspapers throughout Penn
sylvania have expressed favorable
sentiment =coining Penn State's
88,000,000 Bond Issue, as shown by
clippings collected in the campaign
headquarters.
Tuesday morning, the Pittsburgh
Post-G.:ate published an explana
tion of Amendment No 2 in a column
devoted to various proposed amend
ments to the State Constitution. In
addition to pointing out that in the
recent State Chamber of Commerce
referendum the College Bond Issue
received the highest percentage of
approval, the water declared that
"every year, for a considerable per
mit, particularly since the World War,
Pennsylvanians have heard of a large
and increasing number of students
applying for entrance to State Col
lege who could not be accommodated
for sheer lack of buildings "
Little Opposition
"It is but giving the news," asserts
thin newspaper, "that there has been
cry little argument against this
State College amendment proposal. It
is genially teen-razed that the insti
tution, insofat as its work and record
are concerned, is a credit to the State"
Although the Philadelphia Cham
ber of Vommerce rejected the propos
ed project, Quaker City newspapers
have offered liberal support in the
form of The
Bulletin says: •
"Bare statement of the existing
conditions requires no supplementary
argument as to the needs of State
College. Its invaluable service to the
State is known from one end of the
Commonwealth to the other There
should be a concerted effort on the
part of the public to secure adequate
housing and equipment for its work.
Ii the Bond Issue is rejected as un
necessary because of the prosperous
condition of the State finances, the
obligation upon the Legislature to
provide the funds needed certamly is
implied."
College For the Rich?
"Penn State is the only college
where thousands can hope Lot higher
education!: points out the Philadel
phia Doily Nom "It should lie sup
potted with open-handed generosity
by the people whose college it is That
Bond Issue should pass. Otherwise,
Pennsylvania faces the shame of ad
mitting it is slipping backwaid into
that lamentable position where only
the children of the rich can afford
education."
List of Newspapers
Among the State newspapers pub
lishing opinion favor able to the
amendment ale the Altoona Mum,
Connellsville Dully Coal ter, Han is
burg Telegraph., Renovu Record, Ma
hanoy City Recur it-Amer lean,
t Gazette and Bulletin,
Wilkes-Bane Sun-Telegram, Dubois
Extr cee and Set anton Sou, as well
as the Pennoyluanta Stockman and
Farmer, a faint magazine
The Connellsville paper says:
"If any of the proposed amend
ments to the State Constitution, au
thorizing an met ease in the bonded
Indebtedness of the State, is descry
mg of support by the voters at the
November election, it is Amendment
No 2 "
In concluding an editorial publish
ed September 25, the Altoona Atm.°,
approves the pioject: •
"The Altoona Mario). indulges the
fervent hope—and it Ousts its read
ers are of the same mind—that the
people of Pennsylvania will adopt
the proposition to authorize this bond
issue and that the majority will be
so decisive as to leave no doubt con
cm nine: then• deslie. State College
is an institution of which Pennsyl
vanians are justly proud. They will
be much prouder if the institution is
provided with ample funds to meet
its real needs."
A Wilkes-Barre editorial mutes in
sists that "moss than the road-build
ing needs, more than the bond issue
for jails, prisons, homes for this and
homes for that, is the imperative de
mand of State College for $8,000,000
to carry on the building plan icquir
ed to meet the demands of our young
men and women in much of higher
education.
VOCIFEROUS AUDIENCE PLEADS
GRIDMEN TO WIN OVER PENN
Although the balconies of Schwab
auditorium were not swaying back
and forth under the strain of number
less spectators at the football tally

spirited crowd cheered the coaches

Visions of a deserted State College

Frisson, in a talk. concerning the

Haverford, in building up its team
