A. CHALLENGE
With the fist call for cheerleaders front the
class of 1083 comes a definite challenge to the students
of Penn State. Ciiticism of cheeilending here, much
of it unwarranted, some of it deceived, has been loud
and long Whether Penn State still continue to hose a
mediocre °heeling section next fall Is ill he decided As thin
the neat few snooks
Last night, tile initial tut rout of the candidates
5 , as not up to expectations On Monday another call
still be issued and students so ill base another chance to
e. ,, emble for hauling m the nit of leading cheers and
songs. Will anthem small tin nout 'mit' Wlll the
pi esent cheetleadets be folced to gloom a lifeless group
of nonentities who will be consldeied typical Penn State
students in the eyes of other colleges,
At Penn State there is ceitainly potential cheer
leading matemil The dolomitic, here, on eager to
and out candidate, for managerial posts, quick to sire
up possible material for athletic teams, should cen
t anly scan their memberships (not Inc getting to look
behind the In idge tables) for eligible chcaleoding can
&dates
REWARD FOR RESEARCH
Even the most outspoken eitties of the honorary
societies at Penn State he forced to admit that
l'ln Eta Sigma, fie,hman scholastic society, made a
coininendable step fan old by establishing an await!
for unpaid tebenleh in the College scientific laboiatm leg
The unrenarded 'Gottleibs' of science among Penn
State's faculty will he the fast lemmas of any recog
nition for non-subsidized college nescatch The In esh
loan vociety ndl give anal do in the feints of both nut
uial scientific lesearch and social science on condition
that the faculty menthet has received no assistance (nom
other the College on any pro ate cotporation.
Not only fro the purpose of awnithng recognition
is hme it is justly due, but as a stimulus for fuithm
research, Phi Eta Sigma has made a Naburble contri
bution to the College.
Although not anxious to Minnie, away nt a point
until it becomes to 0001110, n nerdy trodden path over a
newly seeded portion of the campus made us believe that
studehtn need to be constantly iondrfed' to Leen

atly
WHY NOT?
Although final e‘aminations ale as yet remote
nillictions, it is not too soon to herald their annum&
v ith the eustomaly cliticism of then inconsistencies,
unfanness and genet al deficiencies Among the most un
fmr of the practices indulged, is that which gives fin
termites a wholesale stoelsoom of examination samples,
nod leaves the pool neglected non-frateinity student
sans model, sans precedence, in his studies.
While this procedure cannot, quite obviously, be
rffensive to - fiaten nity men, it is a gloss injustice to
Oast. mho base no available panels over which to dohs
in the hone of guessing that a question used in 1924 will
Inc repeated this cm. Based on the law of equality
NNlistli demands equal eons emence for all, n remedy has
been found at last. 'Why should not the Carnegie
Ida as p extend its service to imitate files containing es
anunatlon papers for all courses, arranged to assist those
hapless undergraduates who ale (Abel WV. neglected.
The proposal seems practical. Non-fraternity men
mould leap the greatest benefits; they, too, would then
be able to fiche into the nichives, check and compute
and conelate, and pass or fail on the basis of their
ability to select acetic ate eider is for study While the
Plan nught'require sonic library space, it would com
pcnsate fm this in the elimination of texts which would
be lucidly necessary Such a system might even call
to the attention of faculty members the need for greater
iepetition in final examinations, lest ton great varia
t on inconvenience the students
In fact, only one better solution might be suggested.
To simplify the scheme to, thee, why couldn't insti actors
file their examinations for this yens, and cut worry,
OLD MANIA
It's getting so we (head going out of this town

a lot of kick molds to be used in blue books, like
":,‘ online" and "Aunt" and "fossilifen out," and after
you found out what the V.Oltis meant and bad them

those locks back on top of the mountain mime they
belong If anyone knows what the mord is, dim, us
a line in cane of this muinal, because we'd really like
to make the May Day dance at Bryn Moon. We'd
call up Robinson and ask him, but an account of the
