PENN STATE IS AGAIN proud to act as host to
the Eastern Intercollegiate Waestling tournament. Since
MG, two wrestling tourneys have been held her; the
Eastern in that year and the National tourney in EWA
- Wrestlers from eight other eastern colleges and uni
versities are the guests of honor this week-end. As fine ‘
representatives of a fine sport, they are welcome.
ALTHOUGH "KING" COLE will be unable to de
fend his heavyweight wrestling title this week-end be
cans:: of an injured arm, his name will go down in Lion
sports annals as one of the best types of athlete Penn
State has ever produced. Without any experience in
wrestling and very little in football before entering
College, he fought his way to an Eastern Intercollegiate
Wrestling. championship last year and distinguished
himself last fall as one of the best tackles in Penn State
gridiron history. Such lately developed athletic ability
is a tribute to Penn State coaches and to the spirit of
the man himself.
NO ILLUSIONS ARE HELD as to the far reaching
results of the war poll now being conducted by 'the
CoLLEmatv in cooperation - with other college newspapers.
Even if the results are favorable to the pacifists and are
presented to the National Government, they are not
likely to be taken seriously. Youth's proposals in this
respect have been notoriously disregarded. But there
is one merit in the poll which is enough to juStify it.
The questions of internationalism, armament control,
and' trado neutrality are by no means permanently dead.
They will be issues for Many years to come. So it is
interesting, if only as a record, to have down on paper
just what college students in this Pee-war era thought
about measures which would go a long way toward
making wars infrequent.
STUDENTS A"1-10 UANE at least a passing inter-
est in current criticism of the N. It: A. will profit by
reading two controversial articles which have appeared
recently. Neither defends the N. R. A., but each is as
different from the other as possible. The first is the re
print of Randolph Ilearst's radio speech in
which the Old Guard viewpoint is presented, with the
contention that if business were let alone it would re
cover more quickly. The other article, entitled "Is It
A New Deal?" is by Abraham Epstein and appears in
the March issue of Current History. It is a concise
statement of the radical belief tint the N. R. A. is in no
sense revolutionary and that it will fail of lasting bene

YOUR MONEY'S WORTH
We are sometimes inclined to wonder just what
many students carry away with them after a four-year
sojourn here. They come here backed by parents' funds,
in many cases hard-earned cash, and invest considerable
sums in fees, books, equipment, and other incidentals
necessary to a college education. After graduation,
when many ruefully begin to check up, they find that
the dividends which such training should bring are being
denied them. is is their fault?
Suppose we take inventory? 002 does not invest
in a banking institution when it is believed insolvent.
One does not purchase a typewriter without expecting
considerable service front it. Why then should the col
lege invesNent be squandered?
Of the four or five or six thousand dollars that the
average college man spends during his four years, little
can he directly applial to his real education, the ability
to think independently, to question intelligently. The
greater part is expended for clothes, for food, for light
entertainment, for all the petty, pretty baubles that
polish one externally
Perhaps we are sprlous when we tall: of obtaining
an education. But such resolutions do not entail sched
uling "snap" courses for credits and honor points, boast-
of many "cuts" in a particular course, or slipping
through with the minimum amount of work. Why do
we lose sight of our ultimate goal so quickly?
It is not necessary to become a recluse. It is not
necessary to dabble in extra-curricula• activities the
college affords. If well-balanced, all pursuits are good.
Absorbing interest in the world about one; and "constant
association with people who are possessed with the
divine fire of inspiration," of which, unfortunately,
there are too few, is the surest way to realize the
dividends the college offers.
