AN UNGIZ 1 HODOX SATURDAY
Esll3, Ortoliel up,t , ,, the outstanding feature of
Satuiday's football games. have made a most uncom
pioniNing tangle out of the 1930 season. A glance at
Si.tuiday's ,cones icceals that Purdue, Big Ten cham
pions, 10 , t to Michigan, Stanford and Minnesota tied,
IS,,,hington State downed Southern California, Yale
was defeated lit Geoigia, Blown took PI inceton's meas
me, while a deadlock was the best Washington and
Jeffe,on could do against Wittenbeig. If succeeding
Sai.milaNs ',induce h6e results, the national football
prime will ieflect a decidedly kaleidoscopic tint by the
time Thank , gi‘ing Day finales hold the center of the
stage,
Nt kilo not as strutting as those mentioned :dune,
the actin ties of Penn State's six lemaming opponents
over the neck-end present a confusing and paradoxical
puzile Temple nosed out Bucknell which may or may
not mean that the Bisons have not hit last year's shale,
Colgate ineinhelmed Lafayette to cast a threatening
:liaison shade, iner Nittany Alumni Day skies and,
pm haps, to goad the Leopards to finer pitch for the
Penn State game, and Syracuse seas impressive in
stopping Rutgeis lona lost to an unknown Centenary
eleven, but Pitt continued its undefeated march at the
expense of Weston Rexene
In brief the summary shoos that a tlnenterung
filo, Colgate, Pitt, and Syracuse emerged unscathed
Lafayette, Butknell, and loss a may he detemuned to
turn then defeats into stepping stones to victory. But
the most teassming lay of all in the mull.} ;mu-up was
the I , llttany Lion's demsiNe lout of Mmshall.
A STUDENT POCKETBOOK
Signs of a blight day foi demociacy in higher edu
cation were resealed in figures recently released by the
University of Alissiani shoeing how students in that
mstitution are aided in getting through college by the
°nivel sity student loan fund
Under the plan, as adopted by the nod-western um
ten financially dependent students may borrow from
the fund enough money to assist them in completing
then education. Payment of the loan is not rerpmed
until after the student giaduates from the unnersity,
when it can be retained in small monthly installments
The widening usefulness of this system can be
plainly seen by a glance at last year's fumes During
that pet and inore than one-tenth of the student body
made use of the fund They borrowed nearly $70,000,
She laigest rum cont. loaned in one }cat
Not only does a plan like this and the indit ulna], but
it ales helps to make our st stem of higher educat.on
rime denircrntic It ewes to the poor as well as the
e still gin:Ater chance to secure advanced ti aming
It sores the dooms of leaning to a huger group, which
le turn can step out into the world and help others to
secure the same °ppm tunity.
LONG LIVE THE PUN!

home, always hounded by that evil muslin hulled at

must await an auspiciou, moment before he boils it at
lis unsuspecting, victims &pun of this type is truly a
oil, of nit and i , used by many of the nation's NN ell
-I,nown fumes
This pun's little brother, the common pun, is just
ri^ potent an influence in the country's humor. Anyone
ear pi oduce a common, oidinaly pun but just because it
is the mopeity of the butcher, baker, and candlestick
maker is no lesson oily this pun should ,be looked down
upon These too types of pun teach loose people and
muse mole 'aught., often genuine, often feigned, but
nevertheless laughter than any other kind of humor.
This, alone, is an overwhelming Note in favor of the
pun
The continued punster, in contrast to other hum
oi ists, is pi ivileged to laugh at his own wit. Your
olher humoi ists are required by convention to present
mei° countenances uhile inwardly cam ulsed with laugh
tel. This is injurious both mentally and physically.
The pun-maker is permitted to laugh uproni musty, and
even if no one joins him, at least he has made himself
happy. Some humm ists of the other school often fail
to do this. Many equally forceful arguments could be
advanced in favor of the pun and the punster but lack of
space forbids. Sufficient it IS that the punster is omen-

As president and first member of the flute

FAC minutes late, naturally, little Miss Inno
