Will Grant 1 O’clock Permission Rules Revision Allows Upperclass Women More Liberty NEW CHANGES TO TAKE EFFECT NEXT SEMESTER Juniors, Sophomores Permitted Dates Until 10 O’clock On Week Nights Adopting a more liberal- policy for upperclass women, the W. S. G. A. Senate granted all senior, junior, and sophomore co-eds permission to have dates until 1 o'clock on Friday and Saturday nights, regardless of social functions, as a i>art of a general rules revision passed yesterday. The new regulations will go into effect next semester. • ‘ The change comes in line with an attempt to equalize upperclass regu lations, and to allow women students greater freedom in social matters, Eva M. Blichfeldt ’34, W. S. G. A. president, explained. Eliminating over half of last year's list of regula tions, a more simplified, unified and codified set of rules were adopted by the Senate. Freshman Rules Changed On - weclc-dAys and Sundays women students may remain out until 10 o’clock, while 11 o’clock was set-for these nights during College vacations, according to the revised rules. The changes were made, upon recommend ations‘by the Senate committee on rules revision, composed of-Elsie W. Darlington '33, A. Elizabeth Preston '33, Ethel H. Filbert.'34, and Kather ine B. Humphrey-'35.-• - - u - ; '. More rigid regulations were passed to regulate the freshmen during the first semester until they become ori entated. The new rules restrict fresh man co-eds to only one 10 o’clock date each week-end for the entire semester, rather than until Christmas, as for merly practiced. ‘During the second semester two 10 o’clock 'dates will be granted the freshman women with no require ments, made for signing out, which will be necessary for dates during the first semester. Eight 1 O’clocks Permitted As in practice now, eight 1 o’clock permissions will- be • permitted the freshmen during the first semester, while during the second half of the school year they will be allowed one every week-end. ' Double social functions will- be al lowed the freshmen the wfcck-cnd of all the formal ali-Cpllege dances, rather than for a limited number, ac-. cording ,to the revised code. No dates will be allowed the.freshman women during the week. The new set of rules also requires them to be in their dormitories Jby 9 o’clock unless they have signed out for dates. In accordance with the new W. S. G. A. policy, a radical change will- be made in the Move-Up Day ceremonies for freshmen. Customs for next year will he more dignified and befitting for College women students, Miss Blichfeldt declared.

The Intercollegiate Glee club- con test is becoming more popular each year; according to Prof. Hummel Fishburn, acting head of the depart ment of music. The meet, sponsored by the Phila delphia Forum, was originated in 1926. . In previous years the state winner was entitled to appear at the national contest, -but it has been abolished this year because of the music festival which will be conduct ed at .the Chicago World’s Fair on August 7,8, and 9. • ( DENGLER SPEAKS IN FORUM SERIES Culture, Intellect To Solve Future Social Problems, Languages s Professor States “Added cultural knowledge backed by intellect will be more valuable in solving social problems of the future than the so-called ‘practical’-methods now applied,” said Dr. Robert E. Dengler, of the School of Liberal Arts, in discussing “Culture and the Arts” in the second of the Christian association Forum series on “Aids to Significant Living,” Thursday night. “Economics and education fail as sciences because of the presence of the human element,” Dr. Dengler de clared in commenting on present methods of social analysis. “Social science workers should consider,«man as being more than an economic ma chine or a guinea pig,” he asserted. ' Drawing a parallel between the pure scientist and the truly cultured individual, Dr. Dengler pointed out that' both types were similar in that they placed the achievement of an ideal before • mere vocational- know ledge. He added that in both cases, culture is a pursuit, not an attain ment. / “Culture, by appealing to emotion and intellect, prepares one to receive knowledge,”- the classical' languages professor stated. .“It aids the indiv idual by giving him a constructive imagination, an -ability to 'evaluate himself and others, a sense of humor, and the'faculty of seeing life in the whole,” he concluded. HIGHWAY NAMED ROUTE 5 ♦ The - new Lakes-to-Sea . highway through Atherton street -was design ated as Route 5 by State highway officials recently. STATE COLLEGE, PA., TUESDAY, MARCH 14, 1933 TENTATIVE PLANS INCLUDE 7 GAMES ON ’34 GRID CARD Scheduling Negotiations Provide 3. Foreign Engagements, 4Home Contests LAST ENCOUNTER LISTED FOR NEW BEAVER FIELD Lafayette, Gettysburg To Face Lions as Schools Renew Athletic Relations Continuance of the seven-game football schedule policy in 1934 is revealed by an early glance at sched uling negotiations for the 1934 sea son, which tentatively include con tests with Lafayette, Syracuse, Co lumbia; Lehigh, Gettysburg, and Leb anon Valley, in addition to the Uni versity of Pennsylvania game which was announced by university officials several weeks ago. Four games at home and three on foreign gridirons are planned by the Athletic association authorities, with the schedule conforming 'to the policy of the College to meet as far as pos sible only those institutions which have the same athletic ideals as we. have. Two major and two minor op ponents will be met on New Beaver field while the three pontests away from home will send the Lion grid ders against leading Eastern teams, according to the present plans. To Play Last Game Here The innovation- of. the concluding game on the schedule to be played on New Beaver field, rather than on a foreign field, will be a feature of the 1934 schedule, under the present ar rangements. Lafayette, one of the oldest of Nittany Lion football- rivals, has been secured for that date, the game.,marking, the,’.return.'-of the Leopards to the schedule after an ab sence of two years. - Lebanon. Valley, traditional first game opponent of Nittany Lion grid teams, will again open the Blue and White season here on October'6, with Gettysburg College as the probable second-game opponent on the follow ing week-end. Although Gettysburg returns to the Lion schedule for the first time since 1928, the Battlefield institution is another rival of long standing, for Lion and Bullet grid teams have faced each other on twen ty-five occasions since the start of the series in 1891. Two games away from New Beaver field follow the Gettysburg encounter, the first with Lehigh’University at Bethlehem and the second taking the Lion team to New York--City for another contest with Columbia Uni versity. Both Lehigh'and Columbia appear on the 1933 schedule. Second Game With Penn Syracuse, which has been-met every year since 1922 by Nittany football teams, will be back on the 1934 pro gram as the Alumni homecoming day attraction here on November 3. Next year’s Lion-Orange game will be play ed at Syracuse under the existing home-and-homc arrangement between the two institutions. Already; definitely scheduled for November 10 at Philadelphia, the University of Pennsylvania contest will conclude the Lions’ travels away ; from State CoHege for 1934. Next fall will- see their first game with the Quaker City eleven since 1929. With the selection of the Syracuse game week-end for the annual Alumni homecoming festivities, the Lafayette game on November 17 remains as the, logical choice for the Pennsylvania Day encounter. • Following the cus tom of past years, the second or Get tysburg contest will probably be list ed, as the attraction for the annual Dads’ Day. WOMEN TO HOLD KO-ED KOTILLON ON THURSDAY Dance Will Combine Annual Costume Affair With Hc-Shc Function With dancing from 8:30 o’clock to 11:30 o’clock, the Ko-Ed Kotillon, combining the annual costume dance and .the fle-She dance of former years, will be held in the Armory Thursday night A novelty dance by H.
