Because of the tenseness of the athletic situation here the COLLEGIAN has been forced for some issues to ignore its light for the retention of the sale of beer in State College. However, the COLLEGIAN has by no means laid down the cudgel which it has taken up to protect the students, the townspeople, the College, and the peo ple of this state who have sons and daughters here. For some time now there have been appearing regu laxly in the Cvvire Deily Times a series of advertise menu inserted by the local dry organizations asking for the 'removal of the sale of beer here. And as ; the voting hour draws closer these advertisements have be come niere and more fanatic and hysterical They ',recall to the present editor's mind the propa ganda Of the drys' during prohibition and which he had to to every Sunday morning for. some twelve years, being properly horrified during his younger claYs and rather interested as he grew older. Beer Moo of this rthication, the picturz Which repeal previous to its actual happening brought to mind was one of drunks lying thiCk in the gutters, and every body being run down by drunken drivers who had just finished beating their wives, starving their childCen, and losing their jobs because they had taken one drink: nr,wever, age brought doubt and repeal brought con viction—the conviction that the drys had over-stilted their case. In the present fight no to whether the sale of beer will continue to be permitted in State College the drys have and are again over-stating their cnsc The two letters which the COLLEGIAN has received and printed from the dry forces have been filled with "glit tering generalities," and rather miscontrued definitions and a failure to stick to the facts of the local situation. Their!iadvertisements asking voters to rote out the sale of hoer hn•e have been flit] with th 2 same discrep ancies :;11:1 loop-holes that have enacted their communi- cations to this paper They apparently do not. wish to face the question of whether it is better to have beer here in State College where drinking can to a great extent he controlled or to hay.° the students traveling over the highways to and from adjoining towns, perhaps in an intoxicated condi tion, and giving this town and College the worst sort of publicity, not to mention the return of the bootlegger to State College If the people of this town do not retain the sale of beer here at this election, it will be because the W.C.T.U. and the other dry forces here want to see the return of bootleg liquor to State College, to see drunken driving between State College and adjoining towns where liquor is sold, to see more liquor from the Bellefonte liquor store consumed in Stale College, to see this town and College get the worst reputation it. ever had because of the conduct of students out of (nun, to see less money spent. here than there is at present. It is strange that the W.C.T.U. would fight against temperance. Yet that is the very thing it is doing when it asks that the sale of beer he no longer permitted here. SAFE DRIVING, PLEASE Th;s past week-end the roads were crowded with students on their way to and from the Pittsburgh game and reekles , ; driving seemed to be the only col legiate way to travel. Sunday night . on the Gres-_ son mountain an open Ford roadster, over-anxious to pass a trod:, swung out of line and tried passing on the right hand side at high speed but failed because of the narrowness of the mad shoulder. It then cut' hark into line and passed on the other side. There was no accident, more a matter of luck than skillful driving or smart thinking. Should there have been an accident, not only would there have been injury to the passengers of that car but also to the passengers of the following cars. And then too, the name of the College would .have been associated with the accident. (It's all over now and gradually. if guardedly, an over-wrought populace is going down off the Lally of its feel. Here are a few random impres- SO7lO and menu jottings on the week-end.)

Rachel Van Artsdalen and Ralph Apgar were roadstering down the game when they were struck by a farmer's car which had a crate of chickens lashed to the front. The two students were hurled in opposite directions by the impact but were unhurt. The bruised chickens whimpered. Both Ray and Ralph mistook the sounds for the moans of the in jured other until they picked themselves up and in vestigated. (2).

I STATE COLLEGIAN Enrollment Increased By Change In Courses Offering, two types of courses to correspondence students, those which give information and - training on a given subject, and those which paral-' , lel college courses and carry credit, the College may-handle well over the 6,070 students carried last year, ac cording to Prof. Iliirold B. Thayer.. These courses meet the demands of studetits where Classes cannot be formed. Before the students are giv en credit for any. course, they must pass a final examination as given by the College. The correspondence 'work interests high school students desiring credits for college entrance, graduates who desire information' on certain sub jects, and workers in industrial orga nizations. CINEMANIA Riot in town? Fire? Student holi day? Nittany Lion loose again? Ah, no; it's even better than that. It's a new movement for the abolition of ennui, and it will happen Thursday, when State goei rhythm-conscious for four dazzling•interludea. It's the "Blonde Bombshell of Rhythm," Ina Ray nutton and her Melodears, all-girl outfit. They'll be on the Catham stage for four shows Thursday and every male from eight to eighty will be there unless hos pitalized Cr 'forcibly detained some where; that's usually the effect of this personable band leader and her gay music.. In addition to being good-looking, this band has a distinction often miss ing in units of this type; it seems that they can play, and the audience is just' lifted right out of their seats when the band goes into "White Heat" at the shake of Ina's baton. Long distinguished for their screen successes, the group is gaining even greater favor for its stage shows which are the quintessence of "S. A." This is the first stage presentation of the loCal theatre in many years. Ina Ray will have her usual quota of costume changes, and each change is guaranteed to elicit anywhere from six to twenty "ohs" and 'ahs" per in idvidual. The "Variety" may have been more revealing, but it is pre dicted that the Hutton ensemble will prove much more entertaining. Either the band's charm or music would please, but with the two in combine qUicklY; one seat in the bald-headed row! Oh, yes! There will be a screen Zazu- add .Hugh O'Con 7 nell, in "Affairi of Susan." Another 'epic Gaumont , British pro duction will be shown at the Nittany tonight and tomorrow night, "Born For Glory." It is -a story of one man's heroic sacrifice for his country and is replete .witlr , battle scenes on the high seas.- In the story, Elizabeth Brown, play ed by Betty Balfour, meets Lieut. Somerville, R. N., played by Barry Mackay, 'and falls in love with him despite bitter parental objections. A son is born, and his Mother, true to the best navy traditions, dedicates, him to a life of naval service. , The son, Albert .Brown, is played by John Mills with a great deal of sincerity, and his courageous action in capturing a German sub Marine sin glehanded is the high point of the picture. It is wnly after he has dis tinguished himself thus that his father, a naval commander by now, discovers that the:boy is his son. The picture was directed by Walter Forde, and the author was C. S For ester. "This Is the Life," starring nine year old Jane Withers, comes to the Cathaum tomorrow and will he seen at the Nittany theater on Thursday. First gaining prominence as the baby villainess in "Bright Eyes," Jane now comes into her own. as a singing and dancing starlet. Her flair for comedy is given a chance for expression as well as her dramatic sense. The story is about-Jane's exploita tion as a child star by which she longs. She is supported by John Mc- Guire, Sally Blanc, Sidney Toler, and Francis Ford. Marshall Meilen, noted for his success with juveniles, directed this 20th Century-Fox production. DON'T FORGET SHE HA• A DATE WITH YOU TM' THURSDAY at:the CATHAUIt The Record Crop Isham Jones has switched to Deem and one of his first for the junior firm is "Blue Lament," one of those torehy tunes "Ish" does so well. Rhythmic, it features a blue trumpet and some nice violin work. For the coupling, he revives "Dallas Blues," a real old-timer with lots of "numb!" This Welsh coal miner got to be a millionaire on the strength of such discs, so he must have something. Decca—No. 569 D 4,' a The Continental favorite, "I'm On a See-Saw," has been recorded by Victor in Europe with Jack Jackson and his Dorchester Hotel band. Es sentially commercial, it is somehow set apart by clipped English style and lively tempo. Good drums and vocalist help a lot. On the reverse is "Danc ing -with a Ghost," a novelty best described by that overworked word, "tricky." Both sides are well worth . listening to. Victor—No. 251.13 * 'a * Phil Harris is another newcomer fo the Decca fold, and his records are bound to be 'appreciated wherever sweet dance music is liked. No out standing soloists perhaps, yet his en semble plays the numbers with gusto and not too much, muting. "As Long As the World Gcies Around, an I Go Around iWth You," is his latest, and it's typical, even to the Harris vocal. On the other side is "Now You've Got Me Doing It," in livelier tempo and more instrumental calisthenics. A "2" on this one. 6Dccca—No. 565 Lovers of the swing classics will go for this, even if it is a little old by now. It's Benny Goodman's version of "Blue Skies," and he gives it the works. A brass section gets the spot light first, then Arthur 011ini's sax, then Benny himself letS , loose. These are the highlights and behind it tall the great rhythm from these four: Frank Froba, piano; Harry Goodman, bass; George Van_Epps, guitar; and the drums wizard, Gene Krupa. An other favorite backs this; it's "Dear Old Southland," and from the clarinet intro with strong rhythm to Froba's piano, and from Jack. Lacey's trom bone to the sax work of Toots Man dell° and Olinni, the number is oke. Victor—No. 25136 Two more Phil Harris numbers, both M the style thee has made him,a marked man among current maestro's. They are "I'r Rather Listen To Your Eyes" and "I'd Loye To Take Orders Prom You." The vocals are fair enough. but it's the dance tempos that make the record what it is.

Tuesday eve ning the junior girls of Chi Omega had a party for their little sisters.
