THE ATHLETIC POT
For the past few weeks the COLLEGIAN has said
nothing about the athletic situation. And no doubt
many of our readers think that we have ceased our ac
tivities along the lines we pursued earlier in the season.
This is to contradict that feeling. Our investiga
tions have gone on steadily since Alumni Day and will
continue until we feel that the athletic situation has
been completely cleaned up.
Each day brings some new angle and some new
fact never considered before. Since Alumni Day in
formation which formerly was unobtainable has been
volunteered. People who previously wouldn't say a word
have talked, and talked freely.
• One of the most surprising developments which
our investigations have led to is the fact that the foot
ball coach has had little or no choice of his assistants.
We are not complaining about the present assistant
football coaches. But we feel that any coach should be
given a free hand in selecting the men who are to assist
him.

PROGRESS NOTE
President Ralph Dorn Hetzel appoints Prof. John
Prizzell chaplain after ten years' service as acting,
chaplain.
+ + +
AND NOW ENFORCEMENT
During the recent campaign of the COLLEGIAN to
retain the retail sale of beer in State . College, one ques
tion which was canstantly asked was, "Well, the law
may be enforced now during the campaign, but what's
going to happen after the election?"
Student Council does not feel that it can object to
a student's taking a glass of beer. However, whenever
a student shows that he cannot conduct himself in an
orderly fashion without disturbing other persons and
causing a bad reflection to be cast upon the entire stu
dent body, it is the duty of Student Council and Student
Board to step in and discipline that student severely.
The student government bodies have performed ex
cellently along these lines already this fall, with good
results. Their work should continue, since the retail
sale of beer is definitely assured for the next four years.
The COLLEGIAN and the student government groups
cannot enforce the law as far as selling beer to minors
is concerned, aside from asking that the beer garden
proprietors make "a real effort to find out whether they
are selling beer to minors or not. It is up to Burgess
Leitzell to enforce that part of the law.
The COLLEGIAN agrees entirely with the Centre Daily
Times in asking that the beer garden proprietors clean
up the appearances of their establishments. Several of
the local "gardens" have the appearance of a shady
waterfront dive. A few bright lights and clean windows
would add a little more respectability.
PERSONAL
Will the person who sent us the anonymous letter
concerning certain educators please get in touch with
the editor immediately. The COLLEGIAN is interested.

KEEP OUT OF THE OLYMPICS!
On December 6 the Amateur'Athletic Union of the
United States will meet in New York City to decide
whether or not to uphold a resolution adopted in No
vember, 1933, whereby the A. A. U. is bound to refuse
to certify athletes for participation in the event that
Nazi Germany shall have been guilty of discrimination
in sports.
There have been reports circulated by the press
agents of Herr Hitler that the discrimination against
athletes in Germany because of their religion has ceased.
These reports are untrue.
• The Nazi government has not only violated their
own pledge not to discriminate against the Jewish peo
ple, but they have also violated the Olympic code. And
the Jews have not been the only people who have been
discriminated against by the Nazis. The Protestant
and Catholic athletes have also been the target of the
Nazi government. At the time that Hitler took over
the government there the youth of the country was
organized. in Protestant and Catholic athletic clubs.
Hitler immediately started a warfare against them
that has never ceased. The Nazis have forbid these
confessional groups to engage in athletics and have re
stricted them to religious and cultural activities.
It is, therefore, impassible for Catholic and Pro
testant athletes to engage in sports and athletics in
Germany except as members of the Hitlerjugend or
Nazi sports clubs.
It is the duty of the representative of Penn state
at the A. A. U. convention to vote against the United
States' participation in the Olympics in Germany in
view of the fact that the Nazis have broken their pledge
not to discriminate against athletes on religious and
racial grounds; that they have broken the Olympic
pledge; and that their tactics do not lit in with Penn
State's ideals of good sportsmanship and fair play.
Clipping Bureau:
Those on this campus who are disposed to brood
darkly and at great length about the local athletic
situation, if any, may be more generous in the future
if they only consider the tremendous problems that
Bob Higgins has to face. • The clipping below from
Wednesday's Philadelphia Record is an example:
"The problem of the Nittany mentor is to raise
the morals after the Penn defeat, and he believes that
hard work will accomplish more thananything else."
We've heard that's a good remedy, Bob
+ + +
Here's one from Wednesday's Centre Dnily Times.
It has a Lewisburg dateline and is an interview with
Sitarsky, captain of the Bucknell team.
"Penn burst the Lions' bubble and the Bisons are
going to trample it here on Saturday," Sitarsky de
clared, as he arched his left foot several times to test
its strength.
And so we have positive proof of the truth of
one of two conditions:
(a). You don't have to speak English to play
football at Bucknell.
(b). Arching the left foot causes one to mix his
metaphors.
With the price of tickets for the Bucknell. fray
listed at $2.28, we are .disposed to recall with interest
the strategy that some of the local lads used to get in
the game last year. They bought tickets issued for
Lewisburg high school students.

Honky Tonks
Paul Tonks, Froth moneybags, and his date were
lost Saturday night in a Philly beer garden. During
their cruise they ran into Lefty Knapp. Tonks in
troduced his date to Lefty, but with the blare of the
band and the screams of Bacchanalian revelry the
southpaw didn't catch the name. He asked to have it
repeated.
Paul, thinking it was his own name that Lefty
didn't know, replied, "Tonks, pal, TONKS!"
"Gee, that's swell. Congratulations," Lefty cried,
pumping his hand. Then he disappeared in the crowd.
Several hours later the full import of Lefty's
misunderstanding dawned on Tonks and he began to
worry about it, especially that it would get back to
school, or maybe even the column.
Thinking himself fairly safe, he walked into
class Monday morning. Jackie Howarth ran up to
him with:
"What's all this I hear about you getting mar-

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
Studies Latest Dances
Mary lianrahan, -local teacher of
ballroom dancing, has returned from
New York City, where she has been
studying the lateit dance steps at the
Chalif School of Dancing under the
perscnal direction of Louis 11. Chalif,
director, of the school, and Prancis
L. Chalif, specialist in ballroom done.
ing. The .director of the school is
past president of the Association of
Dancing blasters of -America.
CINEMA NIA
A return engagement of "Broad
way Melody of 1936" is the attraction
at the Nittany l today, witht Jack Ben
ny headlining a competent cast.
"Mary Burns, Fugitive" will be the
'show at the cathaum tomorrow, with
Sylvia Sidney its the title role. She is
supported by Melvyn Douglas and Al
an Baxter, with Pert Kelton, Wallace
Ford, and Brian Donlevy in minor
roles.
The story is. thtat of an innocent
girl, hounded by the law, declared
guilty of a crime„which she (lid not
commit. Because 'of her association
with a college-bred gangster, whom
she knows tallies a football hero, she
'•is convicted on circuntstantial evi
dence. She, in: _company with Pert
Kelton, escapes and finds a place in a
hospital, where she falls in love with
Melvyn Douglass; a temporarily blind
ed young scientist.
Baxter, as the gangster, tries to
kidnap Miss Sidney, but she escapes
and flees to Douglass' home. Just as
she is about to be married to Douglas ;
Baxter crashes in to provide a thrill
ing climax.
You can spend "A Night at the Op
cra" at •the Cathnum Monday and
Tuesday, and we predict that you wil'
get much more fun out of it than if
you went to the Met. That's the name
of the new Mar:*;brothers opus, and it
has everything. :Zeppo has been left
out this time, Which in our estima
tion improves the
.fun-making poten
tialities many times.
The story—and it isn't really es
sential to your enjoyment of the film
—is all about the scheming efforts of
Groucho to get his fingers on the mon
ey of the wealthy woman for whom
he is business manager. There is also
a backstage intrigue in which Walter
King, Alan Jones, and 'Kitty Car
lisle form a rointintic and musical tri
angle. All three' possess fine voices,
being well andfavorably known on
the BileadwaY •stage. Miss Carlisle
had the lead iii? Rio Rita's" revival.
The story gets kicked around and
nearly lost in the shuffle, it serving
principally as a
.peg on which to hang
the antics of thOlarxes. The climax
comes at the opera's opening night
and here is the beginning of a series
of hysterical episodes that are leaving
people limp from Nantucket to Pine
Glove Mills and return in thirty days
or well.— Anyway, Chico and Harpo
disrupt the orchestra, Graucho pan
ics the boxes, the theatre catches fire,
the villain is proved a four-flusher,
the true loves ace 're-united, and all
ends happily on a note of insanity
that surpasses everything these wags
have ever done before.
The play was done by those crea
tors of hits, George S. Kaufman and
Morris Ryskind, with the pincipal
song, "Alone," being written by Nacio
Herb Brown and Arthur Freed. In ad
dition some well-knoWn operatic se
lections are sung in direct contrast
to the general nuttiness of the pic
ture. Among These are "I Pagliacci"
and "Il Travatore."
