Women's Editor This Issue Graduate Couni,,Aor Tuesday, September 30, 1941 ffC Rushing Procedure Improves • Breaking all-time rushing records as far as the number of fraternity pledges were concerned. this year's. rushing campaign also was the most orderly and best conducted. Where in former years The Daily Collegian was forced to take the initiative each day in com piling a list of new fraternity pledges, this year . a secretary employed by the Inteifiaternity Coun cil kept up-to-date records. Not only had the bad ethics of the old rushing code declined to a minimum degree, but frater pity houses cooperated with each other in making :vushees keep luncheon dates. and dinner dates: . The. only hitch in the present rushing code is the moving out of rushees from houses after they had been turned clown as• prospective pledges. A more pleasant way of turning down men after they have lived in the, house during •t - ushing should be considered in the IFC rushing 'code. On To Buffalo—With Reservations • The final step toward. sending the Blue Band to the Colgate game was taken last Saturday when the Athletic Advisory Board recommended the appropriation of $375 from Athletic Asso ciation funds to complete the $l5OO. needed for expenses. The Buffalo Chamber of Commerce donated $750 • and the Interclass Finance Hoard gave $375. • This action, however, •was taken reluctantly and was finally passed with some reservations. Only under these particular circumstances was the sending of the Blue Band on a third trip approved. • The board felt the annual budget can include only two trips each year, and that if the sending .of the Blue Band on a third trip this fall were to set a precedent, the request from Buffalo should not be honored. However, since Buffalo civic offcials have been so enthusiastic about the Colgate-Penn State football game and have raised about $750 to de fray half of the Blue Band's expenses, the board considered itself obligated to meet the good-will offer with an equal gesture. • Only on condition that the student body does not- expect to take the Blue Band on other foot ball weekends to away games did the board ap prove the transfer of the Athletic Association funds. This decision and the conditions laid down by the Athletic Advisory Board were fair, as was its expectation that the students in turn would not grasp this action as an opportunity to hold up as a precedent which has been broken, but rather a move to meet an unusual request. Cabinet Has A Big Job Tonight All-College Cabinet inaugurates its first session without the guidance of the old cabinet. Faced with the ever-increasing threat of war and its far-reaching fingers upon the Penn State campus, the cabinet has a big job on its hands. Not only will it be confronted with routine problems but with new and probably more diffi cult situations. A steady hand and mind will be needed by every representative. With a firm purpose .and renewed interest in campus affairs, this cabinet can illustrate to the administration that the student is capable of handling his own problems.

Pat already had a date with his own town .lovely however, and offered his option on Vivien to any taker at fifty cents. • As soon as Campy heard the glad tidings. he rushed out, hoping to get a date but alas, George Winne, a mere freshman, had paid over the fifty centimes and received from Pat an ironbound contract relinquishing all' claim to the date. Gee, and I would gladly have paid seventy-five cents. Absent minded Profs: • • `Tis said of an IE prof that one day he walked into a class of 100, opened his roll book at the wrong place, called- off the names to which there was no response. Completing the roll, a puzzled expression on his - face, the bewildered• man an nounced, "There's nobody here so we can't have class," and put on his' hat and walked out of the room. (Hann) These Psychologists: This year's prize collection of goons was dis covred accidentally by G-54 when he walked into psych 415 by - mistake. He counted an assort-: ed number of grandmothers, feather merchants, one or two fugitives from a looney tune, and a reluctant dragon, before he sled the place in terror. Most Embarrassing Moment: - - - We think Bayard Bloom, better known as "Five year Bloom," walked into a Math class the other day to find his kid sister, Virginia '45; also taking the course. This didn't bother Battling Bloom so much but when the kid pipes up w=ith, - "Don't worry. I'll get' you through the course," that' was too much.

Penn Given $51000,000 • PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—(ACP)---Gif ts totaling nearly $5,000,000 from 16,000 friends and alumni were given the University of Pennsylvania at its 200th anniversary celebration. • The week-long, observance drew representa tives from hundreds of colleges, universities and learned societies. Highlights included• conferring of honorary LL.D. degrees upon Presidentßoose velt and Sir Lyman P. Duff, chief justice of Canada. Intellectuals Can Be Dull STATE COLLEGE, Pa.—(ACP)--So-called "in tellectuals" who know all the answers oftentimes are "unintelligent," a University of lowa psy chology professor told the American Psychological Association here. "When carried to extremes, mental stunts such as cross-word puzzles and question-and-answer superficiality have the effect of making a waste basket of the human mind," said Dr. George D. Stoddard. "Sheer accumulation of information is the antithesis of intelligent activity." Dr. Stoddard charged that present intelligence tests overlook 'originality,' and measure only items which have been overlearned and do not show what new solutions or original patterns a child or an adult can produce. "Therefore, an 1. Q. of 110 or even more can no longer be con siticred an evidence of genius." THE DAILY COLLEGIAN College Enrollment Reaches 6,554 Total With 487 students enrolling at TODAY .
