PROLONGING LIFE
'Die cui ent imp r-.c ..mong the student, that the

[the iu*-hmg codej oid not v. .:k well this fall is ei
inneous It will take a two-Umds mnjoutv of the tia-
teimties to do awnv with the code.
With those wowls Malcolm Knk|mtiiek '3O. mesident
of Intelfiatoimtv council, spiked the uimot that Petm
State liatcnuties would abandon the pieseM lushing
utile bee iu«e ol wide-piend di-content
The belief that the code was a lempoiaiy measme,
and not a peimnnent institution, was bioadeast bv it
losponsible pnties last swing when the 102 S code was
leM'-ed But. accoiding to the Council's constitution,
the code can be abandoned onh b\ consent of a two-
thnds majoutv of the liatoimties iepi esenlcd in the
council The coixrc.tvs leels confident theiefoie, that
oiguni7od opposition to the code this \oin is not loi
niidable enough to losull in its abandonment, thus
lengthening the htetime ot what maj evolve into a moic*
desimblo uishing system
ON THE CULTURAL SIDE
M hethei geneinl cultine oi peisonal technical nam
ing should take piccedenee m the student's tune is a
moot question 'The usual contention, of course, is that
the foui yeai, of a college caieei should be so plunneu
that a just piopottion of each may be obtained 'lhen
as the student icceives his sheepskin it will symbolize
both aptitude m his puiliculai jnofession and at least
a speaking acquaintance with what aie known as the
imci things of life, ..uch foi instance, as the monumen-
tal woilvs m liteiatuie, an appieuntion of good music,
and the many incidents that lound out eultuial
backgiound But Im the most p.ut oui student is sat
isfied with getting just half ol his sheepskin, the othei
hall—the eultuial half—being nothing evept a icgiet
table blank
Eoi those students who would lake advantage of
every oppoitumtv to gain cultmo, the College this yeai
has planned an Aitists’ Comae Such oigamzations
and names as tne Russian Symphonic Chon, the New
Yolk Stung Quaitet, Ethel Fo\ and Allan Jones Al

THE FRATERNITY PRESIDENTS ROLE
In hi- talk Wednesday night at the Intel fnteinity
council meeting at winch delegates and mesulents of the
chaptens weie picsent Dean Allhit! U. Wamock set
ioith a iiumhei ot piohlems common to many Penn
State fiateunties The Dean contends tint liquoi and
gambling me the vmst foes that any fiatcunitv must
iaci* .ml soaqueu. it it wishes to have a woith-whilc ev-
idence 'lhc* tiuth ol this statement is b-ought out by
the fact that the piesciice ot eithci ol these evil de-
stiovs the umtv m a fiatenutv, and without unity of
thought and action such in oignni7Ution is as u ship
without a Hidden
Liquoi dunking as well ns gambling tends to lowcn
the gencnal moiale of the gioitp in which it ovists An-
tagonism u rated thcnchv among the membeis almost in-
evitably causes u division of the house into two factions,
the “wets” and the “dtvs
Usually theie aie tltiee
classes of men to lie found m evenv finteinity, namelv*
Uiosl* who dunk, those who do not dunk and mo active
1\ against the use of liquoi, and an inteimednitc gioup
who ate pohticallv speaking, “on the fence’’ The policy
m the fnileimtv and the icputation that it is to enjoy
upon the campus theiefore depends upon the ehuiactiu
of the majouty
Gambling, although the lessei of the two evils, is not
to he disiegnidcd entnelv It nm\ stmt with small bet
oi games of ponni ante which do not seem hnimful.
Howcvei, the gambling instinct develops inpidlv and nc-
coitlmglv the stakes aie l.used Someone is bound to
win and the losci will naturally, although not iighlfitl
lv, maintain a feeling of enmitv towaids the winnei
when the amount lost causes him financial discomloit

OLD GOLD brought about a great change in smoking
habits. It gave smokers a new freedom of enjoyment
. . . without any forbidden limits.
The man who used to say “I can’t smoke until after
lunch ... my throat is sensitive in the morning’*
now finds that,lie can “light up” whenever he pleases.
For his morning old gold has no more throat
scratch than ftis breakfast omelet.
Likewise all those who have to guard their throats
