The New SINU Strings Made from Exploded Animal Tendons $3.50—55.00—56.00 College To Stop 1 [ldea ‘Pirating’ Research Corporation Formed To Protect Public Tiy Holding Patents Steps have been taken at the Col* lege to protect the general public against the possible pirating ,of in ventions and discoveries which the College intends shall be available to the people of the Commonwealth and of the nation without profit to itself, President Ralph D. Hctzel announced recently. To achieve this protection the Penn sylvania Research ' Corporation has been formed. The purpose of the cor poration is to hold, under agreement with the College, all patents that may be obtained by the College as.a!re sult of research projects carried, on by its staff members under regula tions laid down by the Council on Re search of the College. The corporation will be managed by a'board of,ten directors, who will serve without remuneration. Six of these were elected at a' recent, orga nization meeting. The original board includes four members'of the College Boat'd of Trustees, the dean of its en gineering school-; and the* chairman! of the research-council; With several hundred research pro jects continuously in progress at,the College, some of which give indication of -being of immediate and practical value in industry and commerce, it was felt advantageous -by the College administration to centralize authority and responsibility for the manage ment of patent rights in a separate corporation; • - As n state-supported institution, the policy of the. College is to apply for' patents soleiy to protect itself* against parties who might appropri ate for private gain discoveries on which 'OoMege scientists may have been working for many years. The-College believes that projects for which the state has supplied funds should necessarily . accrue to. the benefit of the-citizens of the state without-profit to itself.. . , Since the charter of the-new cor- Nit t an y • ;.ft!Watnet'BfOG Theatre !

The catalogue or calendar was a sixteen-page booklet, three by five and a quarter inches. The faculty consisted of thirteen men and two women, headed by James A. McKee, ■M. A., Acting President. Miss Anna M. Cooper, B. S., was “Lady Prin cipal,” while Miss Hattie .1. Foster was “Instructor in Music.”’ In its description of the campus, the calendar says that the main building “contains the. public -rooms, such'as chapel, library, cabinets, la boratories, class-rooms, and .social halls, and a large number of dormi tories ... . The' other • buildings - are professors’ - houses, barns, engine houses, etc.” • At that ,time, the College provided a bedstead, mattress, -washstand, and a chair for each student who roomed in Old Main. However,'all other ar ticles such as’bedding;.wash-bowl, pitcher, l mirror,.and'lamps had to be furnished by the student himself. . iThe, College provided no - boarding facilities' at that.time, 'students being obliged to' eat -in. town. - However, meals' were. served at ’ half' the present rates,--the schedules i in the bulletin show. At that time, all 'students .wore re quired to take military training three times' a‘ week, .but seniors and‘juniors had to attend only half the .classes assigned to members of the,two low er classes. The uniform was’made of cadet gray cloth in a standard pat tern. The-semester type of-college year was not .in force fifty years ago. The] year was divided into a fall., session of sixteen. weeks and winter and spring .sessions of twelve weeks each.! ; According to the catalogue,'Gener al Science. was . probably the most ! popular course, embracing German! and French, mathematics and an out-’ line of the natural and metaphysical! sciences. The Classical ; course_ cpm bined the components' of an ‘ old-fa shioned "college course” with,a large, amount of scientific knowledge' and s practical training. ■ - - - i j".! ■ | .
