Werner Heaves Hammer 140 Feel After watching two of the best hammer-throwing prospects for the . Lion's track team heave out the weight, Chick Werner, Nit tany mentor, stepped up to give Ben Slovner and Bull Stern a few pointers. Following the theory that demonstration is the best teacher, Chick offered to spot the boys 30 feet and still beat them in a little contest. The two Nittany trackmen had been throwing the hammer about 110 feet. Werner, although not - a hammer-slinger,' but a hurdler, stripped off his coat, and with his vest still on, grasped the hammer and flung it very near 140 feet, making good his 30 foot advan -tage. Considering that the world's record, as held by Karl Hein of Germany, is 185 feet, Chick's un practiced demonstration of 140 feet was impressive.

He invited his class to bring their dates to the Saturday morning lecture and hinted that white ties and silver slippers would not be frowned upon. A few minutes after 3 o'clock, be gowned in academic garb, 1 - 4.% strolled into the room. Placing his mortar-board head-gear on the desk, he delivered a stir ring mock commen cement speech. Before dismissing his- class of drooping evening gowns and wrinkled tuxedoes, the profes sor presented each of his sen iors with a pseudo-diploma. No one has been ever known to du plicate his performance that . Saturday morning. Many more• approaches are taken by the members of the faculty as they constantly face 'new post-dance situations on Saturday mornings. Last night was an,All-College,- all-out cele bration. Today students ask themselves "Shall I go to my 8 o'clock or shall I cut?"

As ground conditions improve, frosh Coach Murph Temkovits hopes to put the freshmen through simple playing forma tions. Instruction in the rudi ments of the sport is still under way because only two boys have had any previous playing exper ience. . MEET YOUR FRIENDS AT: AG FROLIC AND FUN NIGHT —with— JIMMY LEYDEN AND HIS ORCHESTRA Rec Hall April 19 Dancing 9 to 12 $l.OO (Checking Included) Letters In The Editor's Discussion On U.S. Labor Problems To the Editor: In regard to Professor Reede's questions in your issue of April 2, there are several points which I would like to call to your at tention. First concerning the number of workers involved in strikes at the present time and during the first World War. During the five months, June through October of 1916, there were nearly 1 1 / 2 times as many work ers involved in strikes as dur ing the same months 'of 1940, despite the fact that there were only 4-5 as many persons em ployed at that earlier time. See the Nation, January 11, 1941, page 33. Second: That the strikes in the Bethlehem Steel Corp. have been due to the company's re fusal to obey the rulings of the NLRB, despite the fact that these rulings were upheld by the Supreme Court. See the New Republic of October 14, 1940. I believe that these few in stances out of many "'point to the justifiability of many of our present strikes, and , also that the situation is not as bad as many try to make it seem. Respectfully yours, William H. Harbold '43 Reader Asks About Chapel Funds To the Editor: I am puzzled as to - why our chapel offerings have been par tially diverted from their work at Lingnan University in China. China is creeping toward the "sun" of Western civilization— she must have trained, intellec tually alert leaders—Lingnan is one of the few sources of such men. Support of. Lingnan, then, means: 1. another jet of supply in one of the most critical bottle necks in China; and 2. an inval uable investment in international goodwill— worth double the money! Two thousand dollars is far more useful in China—in terms of the essentials of life, educa tional growth, sincere friendship —than it is here; $2,000 is much scarcer in China than here. Isn't it wise to maintain (at least) the amount of our investment? Can't we fill local needs in a way that will have less crippling power? I am puzzled as to why the Lingnan fund has been diminish ed, for I see no situation des parate enough to warrant this action, that can't be met in other ways. C'mon Cabinet! (and stu- PAGE TM= Mailbox— dent body) Reconsider! Sincerely yours, Howard Yates '4l Editor's Note: Penn State's money supports Chinese agri culture,'not Lingnan politicos. We're Inconsistent, A Reader Says To the Editor: Two editorials in March 22's Daily Collegian seem to repre sent inconsistent ideas. In the first you say that "if we gain (world dominion) at the ex pense of the rest of the nations, we will be ruling a solitude." In the second you suggest that "selfishly, it seems we should take care of our own charities before we take care of the Chin ese." If we could aid in the recon struction of all countries em battled by conflict, we would be helping the cause of world peace immeasurably. It is not merely a matter of Chinese agri culture or Pennsylvania educa tion but a matter of world peace or selfish nationalism. Sincerely, D. Ned Linegar, Associate Secretary, PSCA Editor's Note: Collegian wants world peace for selfish, not world reasons. If interna tional freedom and the elimin ation of national barriers is possible even at a sacrifice to America, Collegian would love to see it. But it does not think that means Penn State should support Lingnan in China: Eugene N. Lederer REAL ESTATE 114 E.
