Entered na second-class jnatt*r July fi 1114, at the poat office at State Collepe Pn, under the net of March 1,187 a Friday, September 22, 1939 CAMPUS BEAUTIFUL OUR CAMPUS is .noted foi its beautv Uuouglioul the East. Gracelul walks wind thiongli laige expanses of daik, gieen, lux uiianl glass—glass which adds‘immeasur ably to this beauty With the building progiam at an end and the costly lebuildmg oi "lass aieas liearini" completion, it is evident that legulai “short cuts”‘v;ould mai one of Penn State’s most atti active displays And Ihese “short cuts”—ugly, hare paths woirv across strong, healthy glass—save very .little of the students’ lime. The few moments gained are so negligible as to be almost non-existent The time saved is entirely out of focu-. when compared with the gi cat loss ot beau tv it entails Granted, the majoi lty of students .have foi med had campus habits during the two yeai budding boon, here Numerous path ways have been worn, bare spots have been liequent, but much effort has been utilized 10 eliminate such campus “eye sores” din ing the past feu months., Only the cooperation of the entire stu dent body can aid in keeping our campus in trim condition—one of which we are all pi cud. The tradition of our campus care and campus pride is far-reaching. .Let’s up hold that tradition. Let’s cooperate in a “It’s-not-being-done heie” movement when otheis tread upon those large expanses of daik, green, luxur iant grass FOOD FOR THOUGHT SOOTHSAYING SEASON. Early in the summer one of file nation’.; foiemost pas times was a guessing game as to who would be the respective presidential candidates Now with shadows of war looming above, the same guessers have flipped the deck and in e speculating on this country’s chan ces of entei ing the European conflict. Just as with the presidential candidates, possibilities on both sides have been pai aded time and again. All in all, it seems so tutile to even guess in this tremendously complex and restive world TOUGH IS THE WORD for freshmen customs. And it is welcomed news that Stu dent! Tribunal will enfoi.ee customs rigidly again this year On;lhe whole the Class of I!M3 is as well behaved and as friendly as any, but for the boys that have had .full swing of the campus during Freshman Week, the Collegian is cheered to see that .word “tough ” Spch are the fellows who need‘the whip. Anoth.er commendable step taken by Tribunal .is its-interpretalion of that section of Freshman Customs referiing to "special students entering College with rating as freshman must observe Freshman cus toms.” By stich action, this year’s Tribunal ’has discarded a'tradition of its own and includ ed two-year Agricultural students under Hold yout hats ’cau'-o hoi o we go with all the ilut we could salvage cut of a college woild sud denly angelic-like a condition due in no small pait to the fact that fiatonntj men, the big bad wolves of college and 'fiction, aie in then good behavioi Our dnllv loaf uiou’nl the Lent of Old Maui and the Cornel usualh enables us to hear atdeast one new line m use each week, but'the only one we've heaid so far this yeai is •'Oh, yes, chemical ongineeimg w»» had a hoy who took chem engmeei mg once he’s , journalist now, but he could probably help vou with voui classes ” And about the time t!n« hit** the sticrl kune Numbei Two will be i inch m evidence “Well, I'll explain the thing to you man to man yon aien’t the hind of a kid who'll listen to a dot of bull we don t need many men. but Jn* boys veie talking abi.ut vou at the meeting last night veh, 1 think maybe if I'd tiv real hard Leonid get vou a pleoge jhn ” Thank God, lushing will be ovei Monday and Penn State can fall back into its old quiet exist ence if existence ui a place with a seven-to-one sex latm can be called quiet Sarong Wiag Home A bit weaiv of lushing:, a pan of KPR 1 omens hied themselves to tin* alfakio suite the otliei of teinoon, emetged a lew minutes latei in the com pany, of Ivay 'Foi sytne and Roth Kennedy, and «et ofT in the geneiul (liiect’on of Whippld’s IDnni A few hcuis latei the quaildt 1 etui net!'with Ruth attued in George Humes fai from welbflit ting shut and tiouscis, wlnleiHames was sheltered fioni the elements by a towel diaped amunddum a la Lament It semis a canoe overturned Find-The-Moral De t pariment: John H Thomas '4l Rut'i Loldsttin 41 Edward J McLorle '4l ._ ...Bayard Bloom ’4l Clayton Sehug, eutic pie of the speech depart ment and coach ol the women’s debate team, cen tei -aisled it not" so long ago with the miss ihu piloted to no less than 14 tfmntegn. count fem) houseparties Circulation Department Plug: Read Campuseei ne v l F'iday foi an/ nil-inclu sive, Ag Hill-to-Boalsiuig, slavey of the new erop of feminine pulchnt.nie Otn entue squad -oi trained spies is now concentiaung on the green ribbon brigade ami we’ll ted all in the next issue We-Accept-Comjis Deparimenl: Sock Kennedy’s tiamed seals, the notorious Thespians, stiutted the 1 stuff in profesional fash ion befoie a mob of frosh TTTesday night, and'thi excerpts they gave fioni foimei shows went over even biggei than ougmally So Campy puts down his spy glass and sho/el momentaiily and takes time out to pat the Thespian-, on the back and 'pre dict a blue ribbon yeai foi the song-and-dancers Aside n to Flank Zumbio addiess comps to Campuseei, Old Minn Towej Space Filler Janet Story, deltagamoui gnl, being spoken of m the same bieath with Lambeit Fouch ’3O * the stories vary as to whethei it is a wedding ling or just a bejewelled sae buuhel tnat links them A fraternity (we won’t say who on account of lushing) stood up en masse in the Cathaum'bal cony the othei night ind cheeied when a 'fratci entered with platinum blond ftosh Kay Walter** (the girl Len’Coopei hclped-tegister, by the way) .
