TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1930
That the success of the parade Friday morn
ing is considered x dal to the College is shown
by the message fi em Dr Hetzel appearing on
the front page of today's COLLEGIAN. Sel
dom, does Penn State's president request specific
co-operation from the students, seldom does the
administration entrust such a 1 esponsibility to
them Penn State's undergiaduates dare not be
found wanting when such an opportuhity pi e
sents itself.
WHAT'S THE MATTER?
What has happened to Penn State spirit? Many
!orisons may be adsanced to explain the very evident
decline in that College feeling about mhich alumni save
and of mluch the student body sees so little. Dui mg the
autumn months it is natural to turn to football, if not
Pc an example, at least as an indication of this loss
Theic is a certain something, difficult to define,
v birth is noticeably absent at Penn State football games.
Pcihrip, it is this much deplored lack of spn it; more
it is merely ignorance of mob psychology on the
part or those in charge.
Cheese alone will necer saise a es ov.cl to the frenzied
madam: necessary foe a colorful football contest. Even
aeequato chaos ing, ho, ever, is sometimes lacking. Op
poi tuna moments slip through the hands of cheerleaders,
momentc that, if properly utilized, might stork ,ondets
vath a discouraged team.
Whole is the spontaneity so necessary to a football
Owning section' Where is "Victory," the song that
has fin filed countless Penn State enthusiasts and has
sent teams to touchdowns against ovelponming odds?
Tho Clue Mt!, admittedly ono of the finest college
musical organizations in the East, seems to be saved for
tunes ts hen it is necessary to make an impression on
visitors Even when it does appeal, the band seems
prr fectly content to sit quietly in the stands playing
Schub°, t's "Serenade" or "Romona," rather than the
"Nittany Lon" Are pep songs too liglht fa the
College band?
Arno snake dances betmeen the halves gone for
e% ci ^ Is that too much to ask of the ultra-sonnisteated
Pcnn State student Fortunately, there are still a few
iootec•i who think enough of Penn State to risk the
ignonn* of being termed "Rah, Rah, Boys" by cheer
ing.
Somewhere something is wrong. Cheers from the
top , of Schwab auditonum or from the Thick House
bri'com, after the game once left n good taste in the
mouth , of spectates whether the result was victory or
defeat Showmanship is as necessary at a football game
ns in a cocas Perhaps it isn't the magnificent Penn
State spirit that has gone. It may be that these smaller
thing, have been forgotten, allowing smut to wane,
not die.
The death of Di. D Crockett brings to an
untimely dose neaily a num ter of a century of faithful
seri. ice to Penn State. Respected by students and fac
ulty alike, Dr. Crockett neiec faded to win the esteem
and admiration of all those with whom he came in con
tact Dis passing on the roe of Penn State's seventy
fifth anniversaly must necessmily sadden the celebra
tion of a happy went
LOSING GROUND
In a letter sent last ;Neck to fraternity presidents
Dean Wm nod; deplores the unfavorable reaction of stu
dents to voluntary chapel attendance. To maintain
Sunday chapel sets ices on a volunttay basis, a better
attendance must be forthcoming from the student body,
the Dean maintmns. Whether the present arrangement
Null mime satisfactory on not lemains in the hands of
the students
In meeting this privilege the Board of Trustees
0-Tressed the faith which they had in the student body
to maintain a high religious standard without College
supervision. If the return of compulsory chapel is
necessitated by lack of interest, the student body will
lose not only a long-sought privilege but the confidence
of the Board of Trustees.
If these is one organization on the campus that at
sonic time or another serves every Penn State student,
it is tho Y. M. C A. Today that association begins its
annual finance campaign and it will be possible for every
ono to repay the "Y" in some small measure for that
