2 Army Cannon
Once led Attack
On 'Fort Shivery'
Two. harmless little cannon, now
squatting
. on , ..lheir - concrete beds in
front of the - Armory, gaze stolidly at
developments on tfie campus.and rem
inisce on the. many battle-fields they
surveyed in the dim days of the
eighties. • -
Silently, these two veterans of com
bat review . days when, mounted on
trtinions, they gleamed in the sun and
the spokes of their wheels glittered
as they were drawn by students
sweating to the commands of bat
talion commanders.
Those members of the "Old . Guard"
did not, however, limit their exper
ience 'to the dust of the march and
the playing of the national anthem
with colors flying. They took an in
timate part in conflicts between the
"Town Muckers" and the "Old Main
Rats," rival bands of students which
sprang up 'as a' result of separate
rooming quarters half a century ago.
One spring day in the eighties,
legend runs, the "Town 'Mockers" felt
the urge for excitement at the ex
pense of their rivals. Organizing a
parade, they maneuvered about the
terrace fronting Old Main and taunt
ed the inmates with cries of "Govern
ment 'Paupers" and "Rats." In those
days the: .ilark walls of Old Main
housed most of the student body.
After this show of spirit the
"Townies" were satisfied and' return
ed to their haunts on Beaver Avenue
where they roomed in what was
known as !Tort Shivery," in the lan
guage of the "Rats." But the resi
dents'of Old. Main were intent on re
venge. Hauling out their 'heavy ar
tillery they, gythered. a representative
collection of qnbbish,. tin cans; and
garhage r and rammed it all down the
muzzles of the cannon.
Aiming the deadly instruments at
the lodgings of, their enemies, the
"Rats" drew a bead in approved mil
itary style. After the addition of
powder and the application of a
match; „amid a thunderous roar, the
two sialwarts elched forth their
questionable contents. Because am
munition supplies had been exhausted
the barricade was lifted, but a notable
military victory had been gained by
the roomers in Old Hain.

serve as a disciplinary body, making
recommendations directly to the Col
lege administration.
The Student Tribunal, composed of
five members selected by the Student
Council, has judicial powers in met
ing out punishment to freshmen who
violate College customs. As reorgan
ized last year, the Tribunal enlists
the aid of the campus societies in en
forcing freshman customs and - pun
ishing offenddrs.
The Student Union Board, consist
ing of a representative from each un
der graduate activity, stimulates co
operation among the College extra
curricular activity groups too large
for an individual group to handle.
The viomen students at Penn State
I have their own student governing
bodies, known as the Senate and the
House of, Representatives. The Sen
ate formulates all rules and regula
tions governing women 'students, pen
alizing as it sees fit all offenders of
these regulations.
The House of Representatives deals
with rules of lesser impcirtance gov
erning the women's dormitories, quiet
hour, and the signing out for social
privileges, and appoints all chairmen
of social events. This group has no
voice in any of the actions taken by
