WITH THE DAWN—
Aflei tnree-quarteis of a centuiy of effort hidden
from public view by mountainous tasks, tomonow Penn
State sits like the rett objective pup—looking buck with
satisfaction upon its bold deeds—just lo.ig enough to
icmembcr that it is the seventy-fifth milestone on a
l«»ng and winding trail to the summit The Penn State
of tomoriow faces its task with resolution, nevertheless
Fot, self-confession betrays a stiong hcait and willing
hand toward the task that lies ahead
This spuit of the new Penn State—a Penn State
visioned by its toich-bearer, President Ralph Dorn Het
-7el—is typified m the new Old Main, its using flame of
steel a symbol of strength; clothed in the weather
beaten stones of Old Mam of seventy ycats ago Its
shining towel, the beacon of Penn State’s ideals and am
bitions, will indiate, we know, until its glow chimes a
spuited welcome to all the earnest sons anti daughter
ol the Commonwealth. And that is not all. Thete t,
Recicalion Hall, the Mam Engincenng Building, the
Hospital, the Giange Doimitoty, every single one of
them a pait of the story being told today by outwatd
changes
The inwaid lustoiy of change and development is
even mote significant A ical freedom to teach, a more
liberal envnonment in which to leatn, and unwonted em
phasis upon essentials of giowth, with a corresponding
tendency to give imtrammcled expiession to the individ
ual efforts of each, not to mention a continuous search
foi avenues of service to the State. These ate but a
few of the spuittml forces, which aie moulding this new'
Penn State—seventy-five ycais young tomoriow.
With the dawn of tomouow shall come the light
of a new and bnghlci eia
“Hell Week” is on the wane at Penn State Inter -
fiatetnity Council’s unanimous ic«olution favoring the
abolition of “Hell Week" is conclusive evidence of tins
Moieovei, it is commendable pioof that Penn State
fraternities have accepted Piesident Ralph Dorn Hot
/■el’s challenge “to incasuic then actions by then

CHEERS THAT COUNT
Head, C'heeileatlei Ileieklen’s recommendation to
Student Council that cliceileadei elections should he tc
moved from undergraduate vote, and returned to the
hands of a Boaul of Selection, brings to the public mind
a question that is eternal on the campus The conflict
r*- ccntcicd mound the entire system of elections, anti
particularly on the advisability of student \otc on com
petitive campus positions Theoietically, there is con
flict, but pinctitably no clash is evident.
The tiansfu of La r<c elections, for instance, fiom
the junioi class to the retmng staffs of the yeurbook
recognizes that the aveiage student is unqualified to
pass judgment on the special abilities of a man Fov
the same reason the piesent managerial system is unas
sailable But cheerleader elections, happily enough, me
in middle ground Presumably the student body is in
better position to rote intelligibly on cheerleaders than
on any of the otheis mentioned
Regardless, Ileieklen defended his recommendation
with an irrefutable truth lie pointed out that, under
the CMstmg system of class elections, eventually cheer
leaders would be promoted by fraternity cliques to the
deli intent of the staff and of the clieenng situation
This is ampler leason for Student Council to endorse
Heicklen's lecommentlation, resetving the ballot for
class elections and questions of undergraduate policy ,
Student Council’s altitude toward fiee hospital ser
mcc is encouraging The possibility that tins pioposal
shall become a reality suiely is indicative of the un
common gootl sense that has characterized the dibits of
student government this jear This is clearly evi
dent in the legislators’ contention that the question is
one that should be decided by student referendum
The decision to uige formal dress for the Navy
boxing meet next Saturday is in keeping with a tradi
tion established at the Naval Academy years ago, and a
friendly gestuto Hint should win the whole-hearted sup-

TRY Kellogg’s Pep Bran Flakes to
morrow. Each crisp, delicious spoon
ful gives you the concentrated nour
ishment of health-building wheat
energy to keep you wide awake in
classes, pep to keep you on your toes
throughout the afternoon’s athletics.
Just enough bran to be mildly
laxative.
Ask that Kellogg’s Pep Bran Flakes
be served at your fraternity house or
favorite campus restaurant. They’re
great with fruit or honey added.
