number of- coats, hats, and rain coats
are found in South Liberal Arts build
ing., while the most text books are
found in Main Engineering and Home
Economics buildings. If the unpopu
larity of subjects can be judged by
the number of books left lying in the
buildings, physics and history 21 are
the . prize - viimers.
Still among the unclaimed articles
are over seventy-five pairs of gloves,
thirty-two , note books, many contain
ing lecture notes, forty hats, twenty
four ladies' umbrellas, pipes, kiddie

Botany Book{ Written
By Mrs. Haber, Wilson
"An Introduction to Plant Life," a
botanical treatise, written by Mrs. F.
W. Haller, of the zoology department,
in collaboration with Dr. L. G. Wil
son, of Dartmouth College, was re
cently released by Henry Holt and Co.
"The text is designed , to teach bot
any as one of the many cultural
courses, not as a
. technical course.
We have , tried to present the plant
world with its concrete and abstract
values for humanity as a part of the
environment of mankind, the under
standing of which is implied in• our
conception of modern education," said
Mrs. Haber in commenting upon the
work. "Wherever practicable, with
out sacrificing the scientific aspect of
the subject, we have avoided technical
terminology," she added.
Mrs. Haber took both her master's
and her doctor's degrees in botany
at Cornell University. She is a mem
ber of Sigma Xi and lota Sigma Pi,
honorary research societies, Phi Kap
pa Phi, educational honorary, Pi
Gamma .141 u, honorary - social society,
and Sigma Delta Epsilon; graduate
women's scientific fraternity. She is
also a fellow in the American Asso
ciation for the Advancement of Sci
ence and the American Botanical So
ciety.
Old Main, and can give a satisfactory
description, identification, approxi
mate time and place that the article
was lost, or other proof of owner
ship. Slide rules seem to present the
greatest temptation to students who
claim articles which they apparently
never lost. Four persons have claim
ed the same slide rule in the "found"
collection.
A bicycle had been found and was
kept in the patrol room for over a
month. When the owner arrived to
claim it the patrolmen decided to take
no chances. As a supreme test they
plead the office furniture' at strategic
positions, told the supposed owner to
ride the bicycle without hitting the
furniture. He did—he got the bicycle.
With the advent of spring, the cof
fers of the found department steadily
increase.: The value of found articles
in' March totalled $.384, April 014,
and May .has already .exceeded that
amount. '

Measles Fails To Stop
Children's Produethin
Despite the local epidemic of meas
les which has reduced the cast of
"Little Boy Blue," initial production
of Penn State's first Children's The
atre, and has placed understudies in
prominent roles, this fantastic music
comedy will be presented in Schwab
auditorium Saturday, to a children's
matinee at 3 o'clock, and to an adult. ,
audience at 8 o'clock that night.
Following the children's matinee,
the marionette class will present "Ali
Baba," a romantic puppet-show which
features a bevy of colored chorus
girls. The puppet show, climaxing
the evening performance of "Little
Boy Blue," is "My Man Friday,"
sophisticated take-off on Robinson
Crusoc, which provides Crusoe's valet,
Friday, with several native lady
friends, one of whom tells the other,
"lie may be your man Friday, but
he's my man the rest of the week!"
"Little Boy Blue" is a fantastic tale
of a young girl who dreams that her
story-book friends and her hero, Lit-'
tie Boy Blue, have come to life. A
Commander Gale spirits her away to
his North Pole .hide-out to cool the
hatred which she has for him. While
Little Boy Blue and his animal friends
aro preparing for the rescue, a chorus
of Penguins "go into their dance."
Tho heroine has been lamenting and
reiterating that she hates Command
er Gale's windiness when the rescue
party arrives.. '
This play is the first attempt to or
ganize a Children's Theatre on this
campus, and marks the movement to
extend the courses in dramatics now
offered under the new division of dra
matics to training for students poten
tially engaged in working with chil
dren. .

the students' money. The suits were
