2,000 Students Here Vote in
National College Peace. Poll
More than 2,000 ballots have been
returned from Penn State in the Col
lege peace poll being conducted by
the Association of College Editors
and The Literary Digest among 325,-
000 students in 118 American colleges.
In • this first incomplete report
which 'covers approximately 30,000
ballots from- thirty colleges, Penn
State voted with the majority 4:lf scol
leges on ,all question's except that of
entry into the League of Nations.
Majorities in all thirty colleges vot

out of another great war; that they
would fight if this country were in
vaded; that they would sot fight. in
the. invasion of the borders of another
country; that the government should
control armament and munitions in
dustries; and that there should be
universal conscription of capital and
labor in time of war.
League Question Close
On entry into the League,
sixteen
colleges reported favorably; fourteen
opposing it. In the East, only Penn

Bissey, Chambers Que"stion
Value of Impending Exams
Registrar Hoffman Says Comprehensive Tests
In Lower Division May Replace Finals.
With final examinations "just
around the corner," like love in the
popular song, College Scheduling Of
ficer Cyrus V. D. Bissey, College Reg
istrar William S. Hoffman, and Dean
Will G. Chambers, of the , School of
Education were asked by a Cm.-
LEGIAN reporter to give their opin
ions of the value of final examinations
to the student.
Bissey Opposes Finals
"By setting up a schedule of ex
aminations and emphasizing their
value you put up a mental hazard
from which many good students suf
fer," Mr. Bissey said. "I think we
should debunk the great value that
his • been put on the glorified, two
hour period of an examination."
The two things which are unfor
tunate in final examinations, Mr. Bis
sey said, are that they place too great
an emphasis on a final spurt at the
end of a course and as a result may
put a strong temptation to cheat in
British Lecturer
Will Speak Here
'Wm-Again in Europe?' Queries
Bartlett in Second L. A.
Lecture Series.
Vernon Bartlett, British journalist
and radio lecturer, will speak on
"War Again in Europe?" in the Col
lege auditorium at 8:30 o'clock Thurs
day night, February 7. This will be
the 'second lecture by an outiide
speaker in the Liberal Arts lecture
series. The admission fee will be l '
twenty-five tents. Tickets •may be
purchased in advance at the Student'
Union desk or at Dean Stoddart's of

Vernon Bartlett, after serving in
the , World, War,, turned to journal
ism. Re, covered the :Versailles Peace

Herald, and thbn is'apecial
Correspondent for the London riltICS
in Switzerland and in Rome. Since'
1922 he has been London representa
tive of the League of Nations Secre
tariat. For the last six years he has
given weekly radio talks from all
British stations on international
fairs under the title of "The Way of
the World."
Writes Novel
After the success of R. C. Sheriff's
war play,.."Jourrrey's End;" Mr. Bart ,
lett was called on to assist in turn
ing that drama into the form of a
novel. In addition, he has written
six booki, including a war book, No
Man's Lsnd;" "Behind the Scenes at
the Peace 'Conference;" and a collec
tion of short stories entitled, "Topsy
Turvy."
Mr. Bartlett will spend February
and March on a lecture tour of the
United States. He will sail from Eng
land next week and his State Col
lege lecture will be his first in Amer
ica since 1930. Prof. David D. Ma
son, chairman of the lecture commit
tee, announced that the large audi
ence at the Stephens recital has made
this second lecture possible, and that
one or more future speeches are in
prospect..
731 students have voted in favor of
entrance, and 19,072 have opposed it.
Penn State,. by. way of contrast, vot
ed 811 in favor.of, and 1,212 against
League entrance.
Twenty-seven colleges, excepting
only . Georgia, Indiana, and Purdue,
voted that a navy and air force sec
ond to none is nora sound method of
keeping .us out of a war. Outside of
the League question, this question had
the closest vote, here and in the tot
al. The total vote favored disarma
ment by 2-to-1; Penn State was not
so decisive, favoring it 'by only 1-to
-3 vote. , •
Editors Favor Poll
Editorials in the collegiate press
fayor the poll for the most part, but
there are critics. The Pointer, pub
lished 'by .the cadets at the United
States Military Academy, is critical
of student expression of anti-war sen
timent as an expression of "a need
to make a big noise while lacking
maturity of mind and the judgnient
which comes from experience."
The vast majority of students, col,
lege' authorities, undergraduate orga
nizations, and, particularly, the col
lege press, however, are combining,
whole-heartedly, sincerely and in a
concentrated effort to make young
American men and women think, 'from
opinions on these war factors, and ex
press that opinion in the peace bal:.
lot.
the way of the student . ..since the ex
aminations are given under stress to
large groups.
Avoiding Conflicts
Mr. Bissey suggestedltwo ways in
which conflicts in .the.nresent sched
ule may be avoided. The first of
these would set a definite time dur
ing examination week when all class
es meeting at same hours - during the
semester would take exams. For ex
ample, all classes meeting Tuesday
and Friday at 8 o'clackand Wednes
day at 1 o'clock might. save their fi
nals at 1 o'clock the . flriit day of ex
amination week..
The second is to use,the last week
of the semester for .finals as is done
now in some courses... However, Mr.
Bissey said that. it- is.not fair for
some students to have'.examinations
before examination week and others
at the regular time.
Senate Ruling
Registrar Hoffman, Was a member
of the Committee on, Examinations
which 'submitted a resolution to the
College Senate accepted April 21,
1927, abolishing exemptions from fi
nal tests to students 'having high
grades.
To Be or Not'To Be
"Exams are a salvation for as
many as they are a darbnation," Mr.
Hoffman said. "The preient trend is
toward comprehensive tests on work
over a period of time.: At Chicago
University two-day examinations are
given to undergraduates."
He cited the preseaqplan of the
newly organized Lower ; pivision that
includes the Schools. of !Liberal Arts
and Education. Students who are
freshmen this year willttake compre
hensive examinations net year to de
termine their fitness tolenter the Up

Goodwill Seminar
Purpose Outlined
Benjamin Explains Reason For
Assemblage of 3 Groups
Here Feb. 8,9, 10.
When interviewed as to the pur
pose of the all-collegn Goodwill Semi
nar, scheduled for February 8,9,
and 10, Lester M. Benjamin' '37,
chairman of the conference, outlined
the reasons prompting joint szssions
by Jews, Catholics, and Protestants
here.
"It is not because a proper rela
tionship between the three faiths
present on the campus is tacking, but
rather that a furthering of this sect
harmony is urged that such a semi
nar is being, held here. Goodwill
Seminars are nothing new; all pro
xrc.ssive . campuses. and,cities..are:.con z ,
ducting similar, sessions,"- Benjamin
added.
"We have been particularly care
ful in electing broadminded represent
ation from each faith to •sit in at our
closed sessions. The round table dis
cussion groups will be conducted sole
ly by students, despite the fact that
three prominent speakers will attend
the conference," the chairman contin
ued.
Representation by Percentage
Student representation attending
the sessions will be selected on a per
centage basis, with fifteen, twenty
five, and sixty allowed for the Jew
ish, Roman Catholic, and Protestant
faiths respectively. With the attend
once proportionate to the actual num
bers enrolled on the campus at pres
ent, it is thought that a better and
more accurate discussion will ensue.
At the open forum in the audi
torium at 7 o'clock Friday night,
which will be addressed by Rabbi
Morris S. Lazaron, Dr. Bernard C.
Clausen, and a third speaker not yet
selected, a public discussion of the
question "What Makes for Prejudice
and Misunderstanding Among Mem
bers of Religious Groups," will be
held. The public meeting will end
at 8:15 o'clock in order that those
wishing to attend Senior Ball may do
so.
ShOrt Course Planned
The seventh herdsman's short
course, one of the specialized inten
sive courses offered during the year,
will be given here March 4-9. The
course is designed primarily for
herdsmen wishing 'instruction and
practice in showing livestock. Both
dairy and beef herders will study
feeding, diseases, breeding, and farm
butchering.
1 The local contest is under the su
pervision of L. Tremaine Dunlap, of
the department of mathematics. To
the winners will be awarded the cus
tody of two platinum world champion
ship trophies valued at $lO,OOO each,
and costly replicas for permanent
The competition of the contest is
not against individuals, but against
fixed pars, decided and designated by
such masters as Ely Culbertson, The
odore Lightner, Josephine Culbertson,
Albert H. Morehead and others.
While the final result counts, the bid
ding is incidental.
None of the winners of past years
has been a widely publicized expert.
On the contrary, the titalists have
come from the rank and file of aver
age players," Mr. Dunlap stated.
