Hoffman '35 THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1933 AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEGE Tomorrow afternoon the College will be host to the Governor of Pennsylvania on his first official visit here since he was elected in 1930. It is a distinct honor that the Governor has chosen State College as the place for delivering an address of widespread significance and interest. ' There is no doubt that what the Governor will say in Schwab auditorium tomorrow afttirnoon will be signi tie'ani. For sometime his pdsition on the liquor question has been requested by the press. As , a life-long dry now faced with an obvious march toward repeal, Gover- nor Pinchot will state his position tomorrow. Ines much as a special session of the legislature will probably be called to deal with the problem of liquor control, the opinions of the Governor who calls that special session are significant. Furthermore, Pennsylvania is one of the states which does not have adequate laws for liquor control on its statutes if repeal should come. What the Governor suggests to fill this gap, therefore, le like ly to serve as a model for other states which are with- out liquor laws at present. Aside from its political significance, the Governor's address should. be of interest to college men and women for another reason. Just as many "drys" Were not aware of actual conditions under-Prolpition, so many young people speak from an experience which rarely dates beyond the passage of the Eighteenth amendment. Both groups . are often guilty - of expressing only half truths. As the opinion of one who has figured prominent ly under both regimes, the Governor's analysis will be interesting to those students who are willing to face both sides of the question. THE ENTHUSIASTIC USE of the Letter Box for the expression of student opinion on any subject is gratifying to the present staff. The regrettable part is that at present there is not enough space to pub lish all the letters received. These will be printed as soon as possible.. Incidentally, the staff has been ac cused of writing letters to. itself in an effort to stir up student indignation on certain subjects. Such a charge is not true. Every letter published in the past has been written spontaneously by a student who is not a.mem ber of the staff. Even the "Loyal Son" letters were the product of a student who believed that they might arouse some interesting responses on the part of others. They did. SEVERAL INSTANCES OF "ticket-scalpingl'.bk students here last week:end have been brought to the attention of authorities. The offense consists of sell ing reserved sent tickets which do not specifically belong to the student himself. Such a practice puts the pro fessional student ticket-seller- in competition with the College athletic association, often to the disadvantage of the latter. It is likely that Student Board will make it illegal for a student to sell more than his own ticket. This is fair enough, for it will prevent the wholesale selling of tickets under or over the standard price. MORE FACTS NEEDED Following the Cartmell case last spring, a Student Board committee was appointed to itivesiigate the status of intramural sports here. Unlike many groups, this committee is planning to continue its work this year. A questionaire is being drawn up which should bring to light some pertinent facts about the situation here. First of all, it will be necessary to determine how many students actually take, part in intramural sports throughout the year, and what percentage this is of the student body. Then it will he of interest to learn just why they went out for any particular. sport—Whether it was to exercise their bodies, to help the house win a cup, to enjoy themselves physically, or because they were forced to participate by ambitious brothers. The extent of participation will also be significant in. the question of the efficacy of the program. Obviously, a student on a losing team will not get as much ex ercise and acqtiire al much skill as the member of a team which goes to the finals. General questions as to an individual's opinion Of the program as it exists now will serve as a fairly ac curate gauge of present student sentiment. Ronver, the important thing is to get actual facts about parti cipation in the program. The Whole situation has been the subject of too much argument and too few facts. More of the latter will point to the current trend and suggest desirable changes. CA MP USEER BY HIMSELF Dead men do tell tales. We're a living proof of that statement. Despite the fact that THE MANIAC inserted bur oliituary card is his last column, some ghoul (probably Web Grant) came around •in the dead of night and pried the lid off our coffin. No, gentle readers, there aren't any, daisiei grdwing Over our• chest—not yet. At present we're here—in the flesh with a stock of stories fresh from the grave yard. You can't keep a good Phi Mu down, no sir. The other night Ed Nagle of the Sigma Phi Sigma lodge had a date with a ravishing woman from the afore mentioned sisterhood. She must have been ravish ing because several• of Ed's brothers, incensed with jealousy, decided to barricade him in his room just about the time that he was putting on his hat and coat to call for the bebe. Of course,' the good old Phi Sigmris couldn't see a ravishing Phi Mti left completely in the lurch, so they got hot on the Bell system and told her she could still have her date if she'd come over to the frat herself and bring along a Phi Mu backfield to crash through the opposition lines. She came all right—ri one-man team! She got her man, too, just by casting a few ravishes to the right and a few ravishes to the left. The jealous Sigma Phi Signia brothers beat a speedy retreat and hid behind the sofas for the remainder of the evening.

He called about five-thirty in the morn ing and got away with an alarm clock. For two weeks they were without their trusty Big Ben. Then one misty morning at just about the •same time 'of day the visitor called again. By the time the raiders shook the Sleepers out of their eyes he had vanished, but their alarm clock was back unharmed, and with it a lovely two-pound box of chocolates. We're not wondering about the chocolates one bit. We know what happened to them. They ate them. But what we'd like to know is hog' they ever managed to get to their eight e'cloeka in the inter vening two weeks. MMMM:EI ➢LORE ABOUT GRANGE The time . was Saturday night of Alumni week end, and the place was—now altogether, boys— Grange Dorm. Four Alumni were parked in a snappy roadster outside the building. "Aw c'mon, girls. We'll have lots of fun. ,You can sneak out, c'mon we'll go to Joe's Place in Belle fonte. Really, you'll never regret it," they argued. But the Grange girls were a bit dubious. You see, they've heard about women accepting rides froni strangers in roadsters. For ten minutes the old grads pleaded with the fair damsels who, incidentally, happened to be hanging out of an upper-story win dow. It was pleasant diversion for the co-eds for a time, but they soon tired of the chatter. What to do? Row to get-rid of their lionieos? Quick as a flash one Of the brighter gals solved 'the problem by dousing a bucket of water over their unprotesting and_ slightly bald heads. The boys didn't stick nailing long after that.
