Creates Difficulties
'Reporting- on College affairs since
the last meeting of the Board in Au
gust, President Ralph D. Hetzel was
the piincipal 'Speaker at the regular
semi-annual meeting of the Board of
Trustees of .the College at the Penn
Harris hotel, Harrisburg, last Sat
urday. Business transacted by the
Board included election of officers,
promOtien of faculty members, ac-
ceptanc&of contributions for research
and approial of degrees. Governor
George- 11. Earle attended the .Sat
urday-luncheon of the. Board at the
Penn Harris Hotel.
In - his report, President Iletzel
' stressed
.the increase 'in enrollment at.
thb College and difficulties in class
room and housing conditions which
has resulted. Touching briefly on each
of- the. seven Schoo:s of the College,'
the President- described conditions,'
difficulties, progress, • and general
standings in education and research
which prevail.
Turning to student morale, Dr.'
Hetzel pointed out the increased ac
tivity of the student governments,
rejuvenuticn <if 'the Penn State Club,
and-.the. activity anti position of the
Christian Association. He also com
manted.favorably on the newly estab
lished cooperative feeling which has
replaced the o:d antagonistic feeling'
existing between the student body
and the borough government.
" Financial 'Prospects Better
, Quoting from a report of Dean of
Men' . Arthur' R. -Warnoak, Priisident
Hetzel stated that, financially, .-the
students as a wboie,seem.to be a lit
tln..better off than last,year. Quoting
tha.onoralej..of
the students,in.the face of discourag•
leg-conditions. around them and of
none too bright prospects for 'their
immediate" future continues to seem
remarkable.•
.They are working hard in .their
studies with apparontly the confident
expectation that there will he ,plaeos
for them in the various professions
and occupations whiCh they have cho
sen, 'he said.
Still quoting Dean Warnock, Presi
dent Iletzel stated that, as might ho
expected, there are a few radicals in
the student body but that no good
reason for attempting to suppress
their opinions has been found. That
radical opinions shall be presented in
an intelligent,' honest manner that
conforins to the nature and dignity
of an'educational institution was the
one request inade 'by the Dean
through-President Hazel.
The acute situation which has
arisen Ahrough attempting to, house
1,000 women students' when campus
capacity is only 400, was pointed out
by the President along with the fact
that many women who were living in
town dormitories were being denied
the benefit of association with others
in dormitories under campus supervi
sion.
In conclusion, the President once
more, alluded to the Christian Asso
ciation and the fine work which it
has done during the sixty years of
the organization on this campus.

Fraternity 'Hell
Week' Abolished
Asked to comment on "Hell Week"
as'a part of the fraternity initiation,
Dean of Men Afrthur R. Warnock is
sued a statement to the' CoLLEGIAN
affirming his stand en the question.
"As a college offictM,"' Dean War
nock said, "My interests in abolishing
the old-fashioned Hell Week are part
ly in removing the handicap which
Hell Week nuts, on the pledges' stud
:es and partly in removing those silly
practices which Imam adults 'think
fraternities are 'mainly 'high school
"As a fraternity alumnus," he con
.flailed, all ..of
the initiation process be a means of
stimulating the regard of. tfie initiates
for the dignity and the ideals :that
can be in fraternity life." .
While 'he is not in favor of the
drab, melancholy type of initiation,
Dean- Warned( .said that he believes
the lighter part of the initiation
should consist -of "good clean fun,
which neither,would - degrade or harm
the initiate."
Thermometer Shows
14 Below Zero
In Cold Wave
Shivering students nursed frost
bitten cars this morning as the mer
cury began to climb back to near
normal winter temperatures atter a
stinging cold wave.
The Mercury hit a new loci for this
winter a temperature of fourteen be
.ow was officially recorded by the
College weather station at 8 o'clock
Wednesday night and a temperature
of twelve below at eight o'clock on
Thursday looming. By noon the in
dicator hovered around the zero mark
as the cold snap broke.
"Continued cold" was the forecast
for today, with rising temperatures
expected tomorrow.
The mercury began its dizzy down
ward slide Wednesday afternoon,
when a strong northwest wind began
whipping snow into drifts. At 8 o'-
clock Wednesday morning the ther
mometer recorded 18 degrees above
zero. A decline of thirty-two degree:
was registered in the next twenty
four hours.
For a time, things looked bad for
the Ebert minions as a new crisis
faced the show shovelers. With the
nine miles of College waltz still not
completely cleared of Sunday's heavy
snowfall, 'Wednesday's drifting snow
threatened to cause more trouble.
Power plows were again pressed into
service as laborers continued to ply
their shovels.
iklainy cases of ' frost-bitten ears,
hands and feet were reported, some of
them serious enough to require treat
ment at the dispensary. Six cases of
frostbite were treated at the infirm
ary yesterday morning, although none
of them were serious.
Dr. Joseph I'. Ritenour, College
physician, warned against the seri
ousness of frozen members and gave
a .remedy, which, if applied in time,
would bring relief. "The best remedy
for frost-bitten ears, hands or feet
is to rub the afflicted members with
snow, or to apply cold water. Hot
water applications are dangerous and
complications arc apt to set in if this
is sought as a remedy," he said. In
severe cases of frostbite, the skin be
comes blisteriid, and treatment . inust
be made as fur burns.

Discuss, Informal Initiation
The advisability of substituting a
definite period of informal initiation
for Hell Week was advanced by Har
old P. Stack, spokesman for the com
mittee which Swift had appointed at
a previous meeting., Pointing out
that the chief objectors to Hell Week
activities are the administration and
faculty members, the committee's re
port urged that "hazing" be de-em
phasized and that co-eds, faculty
members, and townspeople not be mo
lested by pledges in the course of the
informal initiation ceremonies.

de:egates, the committee was instruct
