One spring morning Levden arose singing a song about Penn State that sounded ' unusually attractive to Hansen. “Where’d y ou get the song, Jimmy 9” ho veiled ‘Just made it up,” came the answer “Write it down and I’ll publish it and give vou two' cents royalty on every copy sold,” Hansen replied. “I’ll do it,” came the icsponse And so “Victory” was composed. Claiencc Robinson, then director of music at Penn State, assisted in the prcpmation of the song, and several editions weie successfully placed on the market.
