Senior Coed May Get Opportunity To Paint Murals
For Modern Dance Room In Mary White Hall
Jean Craighead Already
Planning Special Mural
Jean C. Craighead ’4l will paint
a 40-foot mural in the modern
dance room of White Hall depict
ing fields contributing to modern
dance, on .provision that 'the ap
proval of Dean Carl P. Schott and
the architectural committee of the
board of trustees can be obtained.
This will be the first student
mural ever allowed at the College.
It results partly from the interest
displayed.in the Vamum Poor’s
mural in Old Main. Unlike Poor’s
work, Miss Craighead’s mural will
be done in water color.
Miss Marie Haidt, head of the
women’s physical education de
partment, and Miss Jessie Camer
on, assistant professor'of physical
education have already consented.
Tentative sketches showing the
development of modern dance
through the negro, primitive, bal

'Euler Activities/
Warnock Advises
“Don’t sleep your way through
college activities,” advised Arthur
A. Warnock, dean of men, as he
sent the first of a series of compul
sory freshman mass meetings off to
an enthusiastic start last night in
Schwab auditorium when he spoke
before an over-flowing group of
spirited ’44 Penn Staters.
Speaking on “What Textbooks
Don’t Teach,” Dean Warnock sug
gested that all freshmen decide this
year what activities they would
like to major in during their four
years at State.
“After you are certain that you
are spending enough time and en
ergy on your studies,” continued
Dean Warnock, “select only several
activities in which you are inter
ested, then take an active part in
them. In this way we should be
able to decrease the number of
lone-wolf, anti-social students on
the campus.”
Elinor Weaver'’4l welcomed the
freshmen, lauding them for the ex
ceptional show of class spirit dur
ing this first compulsory mass
meeting since Freshman Week.
Two solos by Elwood Oliver,
state high schol trombone cham
pion, were also featured on the
one-hour program along with or
ganized singing and cheering led
by Prof. Frank Gullo and the
cheerleaders.

Collegian Crashes
The All-American
You don’t have to be a foot
ball player to be an All-Amer
ican.
Last semester’s Penn State
Collegian, predecessor of The
Daily Collegian, deserved that
rating, the Associated Collegiate
Press judges announced in Min
neapolis, Minn., yesterday.
The rating highest possible
award for a college newspaper—
was based on an all-around
judging of Collegian’s second se
mester issues, with consideration
given to news coverage, news
writing and editing, headlines
and makeup, and special fea
tures.
It is the highest award ever
received by the Collegian which
two years previously had re
ceived first class honor rating,
one place lower. It was judged
as a semi-weekly in competition
with colleges of over 5,000 enr
rollment.

Room Delivery
Underway lues.
Fraternity room delivery of The
Daily Collegian will begin next
Tuesday, Robert Robinson ’4l, cir
culation manager, announced yes
terday.
Delivered before breakfast (if
you don’t eat too early) the papers
will be taken by Collegian boys to
rooms bearing special signs to be
given Collegian subscribers.
The delivery signs will be pub
lished in Saturday’s Collegian and
should be clipped by the subscrib
ers and pasted on the doors of their
rooms.
Collegian’s wary circulation
manager, suspecting he might find
more signs posted than there are
subscribers, promised that each
sign will provide a space for the
name of the subscriber. This, he
said, will be checked by the deliv
ery boy before delivery is made.

high and 40 feet wide, would be
done in tempra against the regular
plaster, and placed high above the
two doors entering the modern
dance room.
Actual painting on the plaster
would not be started until the sec
ond semester, since Miss Craighead
will do preliminary sketches using
Dance Club members as models,
during the first semester. Special
group compositions will be made
by the Club for Miss Craighead to
sketch.
To avoid spraying the completed
mural with glue to make it perm

tion, now entering its second year
of publication, and was secretary

Drops Frosh Dance
The Freshman Dance was drop
ped from the College social cal
endar, a committee was named to
work with a WSGA committee to
have May Day made an All-Col
lege celebration, and a resolution
was passed asking the abolition of
4 o’clock classes at the Cabinet
meeting last night.
Reason given for the dropping
of the Freshman Dance was that,
in the two years it has been held,
it has lost money and been poorly
attended.
The suggestion that May Day be
made an All-College celebration
came from Elinor L. Weaver ’4l,
WSGA president. Arnold C. Laich
’4l, All-College president, appoint
ed A. John Currier ’42, W. Rae
Herrman ’4l, Walter M. Kniaz ’4l,
and Richard C. Peters '4l to the
Cabinet committee which will
work with a WSGA group, not yet
named.
“All we get out of College doesn’t
come from classes,” was the way
Miss Weaver voiced Cabinet’s
opinion concerning free 4 o’clock
periods. Primary purpose of the
resolution was that students would
have a suitable hour for meetings
and convocations. The recommen
dation will be sent to President
Hetzel.
Another committee, composed
of Bertha Black ’42, Currier, and
William B. Bartholomew ’4l, was
named to meet with town groups
and the PSCA to discuss the pos
sibility of having a combined stu
dent - borough - PSCA Armistice
Day celebration,
John R. Juba, chief of police, iri
his address declared that the main
difficulty between students and the
borough is a “misunderstanding.”
He said that he is in favor of or
derly pajama parades and cited the
Pitt bonfire, last year.
