College Eliminates
Bad Spots in Walks
: The 'College campus is in better
condition now than it has ever been,
| George W. Ebert, superintendent of
grounds and buildings, said this
morning in outlining projects being
completed. Numerous “bad spots” in
the system of walks and drives over
the campus arc being eliminated.
* A new concrete walk is being laid
on North Drive across from Recrea
tion hall to meet the diagonal path
leading from the rear of the library.
This new by-path will permit pedes
trians to cross to the gymnasium at
right angles rather than to cut
through the parking space.
At,'concrete flight of steps has been
constructed as an approach from Col
lege Avenue between Engineering
Units-C and Dto supplant the for
mer wooden steps which were in bad
condition.
Other walks being constructed are
of asphaltic concrete, the type of
pathway installed when a projected
new building lies in its.course. An
other new walk has been laid along
the east side of Burrowes Street from
College Avenue to the parking space
behind Engineering F. Another will
replace the temporary wooden planks
that were laid between the athletic
practice fields and the East stands
of Beaver field. This walk will be
placed fatther south than formerly.
Mineral Industries to South Lib
eral Arts is the course of another
asphaltic path and Liberal Arts to
rear of Women’s Building is the sec
ond. Another path now being paved
lies -between the Horticulture build
ing and Park Avenue, replacing the
present cinder path. Grading and
seeding between the Engineering
units and College Avenue, painting
and other maintenance work com
plete the series of improvements.
10 Years Ago ■ . .
T. V. Letunovitch and M. Dudko
have petitioned the Student Tribunal
for exemption of customs, claiming
that it is hard for them to under
stand the English language and thus
would inconvience them greatly to
take them.
Miss Marie Haidt, recently elected
as head of co-ed physical'education,
is outlining a program which will
produce considerable enthusiasm and
interest in athletics among the girls.

of State College‘preparatory to their
initiation to Penn State’s Stunt
Night.
Sophomores will be called upon
Saturday to organize and supervise a
Clean-Up campaign in which all
freshmen will be enlisted to take-an
active part..
Because of abuse of the excuse pri
vilege in the case of morning chapel,
no student will be granted an excuse
•from the daily service because of con
flict with his outside work.
Because of the lack of understand
ing and sympathy with the status and
character of advanced R. 0. T. C., the
military department is making a spe
cial effort to enlist more juniors in
the work.
Pop-In Night was observed by the
co-eds here Sunday night. From eight
until ten o’clock, the old girls popped
in-on the new and often homesick
freshmen.
