Tropical Hurricane
Hits Champlins in
Puerto Rico Home
Weathering a terrifying tropical
hun*icane which recently swept Puer
to Rico was ithe experience of Dr. Car
roll D. Champlin, professor of edu
cation, and family, according to a
letter received by Dr. J. J. Osuna, of
the University of Puerto Rico, who
is exchanging his services with Dr.
Champlin this semester.
Although the Osuna home in which
the Chnmplins are staying was not
• damaged greatly, the walls of the
garage were crushed, and the roof of
the servants’ home was ripped off.
The walls of the residence were bom
barded continually with hurtling:
branches and other objects picked up
by the hurricane.
“For 'two hours I leaned against
the door of our home with all my
strength,” Dr. Champlin wrote, “not
knowing when the building would be
swept away.” Since the university
was [wrecked and classes suspended,
Dr. Champlin aided in the work of
reconstruction.

tian association, and the commission
will be chosen from this number by a
series of interviews to begin the last

years, according to syan. In the last
graduating class there, 30 of the 35
selected as freshmen were prominent
in activities at the close of their four
years,’ he said.

Warnock Approves Fraternity Tutor
Plan—Recommends Further Trial
With one fraternity here using the
plan for the first time this year, the
fraternity tutor idea received the ap
proval Friday of Dean of Men Arthur
R. Warnock, who characterized it as
“a very excellent plan which deserves
further experimentation."
Under the arrangement which vis
being used at other colleges, a mem
ber of the fraternity who is a college
graduate taking advanced work is
furnished with room and board by the
local chapter in return for tutorial
assistance to pledges and brothers
and advice in fraternity matters.
No disciplinary powers whatever
are connected with the position, other
than the power to enforce study hour
in the house and to perform other
duties of a scholarship chairman. In
no sense does the tutor act as a proc
tor or overseer of the actions of the
fraternity and its members.
“The main objective, of the plan is
to bring up the scholastic standing
of the fraternity," explained Regis

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
Binder, a graduate scholar in mechan
ical engineering, who is the tutor for
the local chapter of Phi Kappa. “The
chief advantage lies in the fact that
a graduate who has covered the work
in a four-year college course is able
to give valuable assistance to under
graduates.” .
William P. Kearney '33, president
of the fraternity, said that up to this
time experience has shown that
pledges and upperclassmen tend to
listen, more closely to the advice of
the tutor, who has been recommended
by the national fraternity, than they
would to’one of their own number.
The plan will be continued next year:
if possible,' he added.
Lafayette College at Easton inaug
urated the plan last year, while a var
iation of-the system has been used
at the universities of Minnesota; and
Oklahoma [for the past several years.
Comments from Lafayette indicate
that the plan has improved fraternity
;scholarship.
