CUT TO 7 GAMES
BY CANCELLATION
Annual Thanksgiving Day Battle
With Panthers Dropped
From Schedule
HASTENS CESSATION OF
PITTSBURGH RELATIONS
No Substitute Contest Planned
Declares Bezdek—Boards'
Approval Secured '
Penn State's 1932 football schedule
was shortened to seven games, and
the cessation of grid relations with
the University of Pdtsburgh was
hastened by one year as the result of
cancellation of the Thanksgiving Day
contest at Pittsburgh by Panther au
thorities last week.
Offered a game with Leland Stan
ford University on Saturday, Novem
ber 26, two days after the scheduled
Thanksgiving Day contest, Pittsburgh
athletic authorities immediately
sounded out Hugo Dudek, director of
the School of Physical Education and
Athletics, and Neil H. Fleming, grad
uate manager of athletics, in regard
to cancelling the latter game.
After making satisfactory arrange
ments for the protection of the Col
lege Athletic association and receiv
ing the approval of the Senate com
mittee and Board of Athletic Control,
both officials agreed to the proposal.
"We do pot 'plan to schedule a
game to take the place of the Pitt
contest," stated Bezdek. "The seven
game schedule is in line with that
planned for 1223, and will likely re
main at that length."
As a result of the cancellation, the
Lion gridders will end_ their_ season
next fall with the Temple University
contest at Philadelphia, November 12.
Other opponents on the schedule in
elude Lebanon Valley, Waynesburg,
Harvard, Syracuse, Colgate, and the
University of the South

Class Presidents Advocate
Freshman Customs Removal ' ,
Wood '33, Rathmell '34, Benner '35 Sanction
Abolishing Most of Restrictions
Enforced This Year
Abolition of most of the present
freshman customs is favored by next
year's class presidents, and steps in
that direction are planned by John A.
Wood '33, newly-elected senior lead
er, in Student Council this week.
Reasons given by the three class
heads for this sentiment were that the
student body is too large to secure
effective enforcement, that the pres
ent restrictions are too rigid for the
rest of Penn State's social life, that
favoritism enters into attempts at en-'
forcement, and that a great many vio
lations are not reported.
Wood expressed the sentiment of
the group when he said that "horse
play" must be abolished and that only
those restrictions which are construc
tive should be retained. He also sug
gested a shorter period for the re
maining restrictions and proposed
that those customs should be taken'
off by Easter at the latest.
Dinks, black socks and ties, name
cards at the beginning of the first
semester, and the entrance rule at
the Liberal Arts buildings are the
only first-year restrictions which
Wood is in favor of retaining He
would abolish, among others, those
regarding the carrying of matches,
walking on the grass, smoking, sit
ting on the Campus wall, hands in
pockets, freshman proclamation, and
freshman dating,
"I am heartily in favor of abolish
ing all freshman customs, with the
exception of some alentific4ton
mark," said John N. Rathniell
newly-elected junior class head ' "The
College is too. large to secure effec
tive enforcement and favoritism cor
rupts the efforts to_pumph violators,"
GILES ADDRESSES
CHAPEL AUDIENCE
New Jersey Pastor Urges Courage
Against Depression Before
'Bothers' Day Group
"Don't be discouraged about the de
pression, our wealth is in our man
hood and womanhood," Dr. W War
ren Giles, pastor of the First Reform
ed church, East Orange, N .1., told
an overcrowded chapel audience Sun
day morning.
Dr Giles advised his hearers to
take life philosophically and not worry
about the future. The subject of his
address was "As One His Mother
Comfortath So Will I Comfort You"
"Comfort and consolation has al
ways been administered in times of
need by our mothers. Never once
have they failed," he said "Thank
heaven for their intelligence, affec
tion, and will."
Testifying to the high type of men
that our country is producing, Dr
Giles mentioned the business men and
the scientists that this age has seen.
Never were there greater men in
America than today, but these men
are not to be found in the realm of
literature, he said

chestra at a meeting of that organi
zation recently. Marietta Tregel

rotary and Sarah Ann McKee '35 as

STATE COLLEGE, PA. 4 TUESDAY, MAY 10, 1932
he added in condemning yearling cus
toms.
Freshman customs which Walter G.
Benner jr , sophomore class president,
is in favor of abolishing include the
restrictions on smoking, hands in
pockets, black socks and ties, walk
ing on grass, matches, and sitting
on the Campus wall. The restriction
on dating should be retained, Benner
believes, but only for a shorter period
than that during which customs are
now enforced.
Benner's suggestions substantially
agree with those drawn up recently
by a class committee of two frater
nity freshmen and two non-fraternity
freshmen. This group favored a
shorter customs period and the aboli
tion of the restrictions on smoking
and matches, but was opposed to do
ing away with the first-year dating
rule.
