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
