The - Hiding Club
When a new borough ordinance goes into effect
July 1, forcing the riding stables to move from
downtown. College riding enthusiasts are going to
be left high and dry unless the College itself builds
a new stable..
The Riding Club is trying .to accomplish just
that. Tonight, its proposition goes before the exe
cutive committee of the Board of Trustees.
What the club is asking seems reasonable
enough and especially desirable as a part of ' the
program now being undertaken by the Recreation
Coordinating Committee.
The College is being asked to provide stables for
the students at a cost of about $1,500 and after that
the Riding Club agrees to. pay ail upkeep from its
semester tee.
When the Club started up a' year ago it had 50.
members until it lost its barn in a legal mix-up
and was forced to disband, hlbw that it'has ttied
to reorganize the Club has already gathered as
many members. It has bought four horses ana
temporarily has its animals housed in the down
town stable.
That’s where the matter stands. If the Trustees
see their way clear to erect the stabies, the Riding
Club’s troubles are over. If not, a lot oi people
are going to. be sitting hqme next fall. ~
Anniversary .'Of. A Murder
Today marks the anniversary of the still unsolv
ed Rachel Taylor case, probably a murder, thought
by some to be a- hit-run case.
Although bungling at the beginning may have
prevented the. immediate solution of the case,
since that .time its investigation has been carefully
and methodically pressed ’by- the Pennsylvania
Motor Police- who -are sure that sooner or later
they will break.it, • *
Today, however,', the rewards offered by Col
legian ’ and student government, for information
.leading to the arrest and conviction of the slayer
will expire. It was hoped that these rewards would
encourage Someone to turn in- information. A year
seems long enough..to convince, police that this
hope was- futile.
Meantime, the_murder has had-its repercussions,
good and bad. Coeds were required by WSGA to
return to college from vacations within regular
dormitory hours. (Miss Taylor had arrived'on a
1:21 a. m. bush
Downtown a bus squabble grew up and the sta
tion was.moved to,Atherton street, almost twice
as far from the dormitories as the downtown stop.
When the, change was made it was indicated that
a lighted walk: would be.'.provided for coeds and
it .was indicated .that arrangements would be made
to have ttfe busses stop at-the dormitories.
• What beautiful'ideas! If they. aren t put into
effect soon! the only .Thing that can be said about
any future trduble is that the College and the town

Releases From Rome
The subtlety of Italy's press chief. Virgin io Gay-
da. is about as tactful as a swift kick in the teeth.
Gavda masquerades as the editor of Giornale
ciTtalia, Rome's pink Gazette, which is Italy’s oi-
liciai publication.
As a result Gayda is indirectly the pen name of
Eenito Mussolini. II Duce won’t admit this, but
alter reading some of the literary misprints that
Gavda composes, anything but a denial from Mus 1 -
solini would not tab him as a plagarist, but as a
moron.
Gayda's latest adulterat journalism deals with
the signing of Yugoslavia as a junior partner in
the Axis. He tells the world that Italy is over
flowing with enthusiasm as a result of Yugoslav
ia’s adhesion .to the Tripartite Pact. Gayda gossip
to the contrary, official- circles in Rome are prob
ably happy about the pact in a manner similar to
the joyful expressions of 20,000 Italian colonists
stranded in Ethiopia, who are in constant danger
of being carved into meat balls by the native fuzzy
wuzzys
In the past when Gayda became intoxicated
with glee over a certain turn in, world events,
there were, more secrets to the,affair than ordinary
smell of a German rat in Denmark, and this case
is no exception. Yugoslavia was to be Italys share
of the spoils for entering the present conflict, but
the signing of the 'pact yesterday removed that
possibility completely. Ironically, the; Fascist
press hails Yugoslavian cooperation.
When the United States handed over fifty des
troyers to Great Britain the Giornale dltalia.mini
mized the importance of the trade. .Three days
later when British vessels increased in number in
the Mediterreanian, Gayda blandly released the
statement that Italian war; ships were heading for
home worts at full speed. .Since then Fascist' ships
have not ventured very far'into Mussolini’s “Nos
tram Mare.” • .
While congratulating Yugoslavia Gayda- remaiks
that Turkey is' following a very cautious policy,
and is keeping herself out of the present conflict.
Which is typical of Fascist wishful thinking. The
Turkish e’itrv into the war on the side of Britain
would seal the fate of Italy’s Dodecanese Islands
oil the south eastern coast of Turkey.
With the Italian Empire crumbling around him,
Virginio Gayda apparently doesn’t intend to alter
his code of writing, which might read. “Get your
facts first, then distort them as you please.
