Edward D.' Ardery, ROTC head; and Dr. Charles C. Wagner, as sistant dean of-Liberal Arts. “Students enrolled in. Liberal Arts’ courses should not be blind ed by the seemingly greater op portunities in technical fields at the present time,” Wagner point ed out. “A long range view must be taken.

Also appalling for students and educators to look beyond the present crisis, Dean Steidle point ed out that we must educate our youth as'much to solve the prob leriis of the future as those imme diately confronting us. “Some of today’s students will live to see the yealr 2000,” he said, “and the problems of this post-war era will be even more difficult and of long er duration than our present ones. There, will.be crests of prosperity ITATE COLLEGE culated by the American- Federa- Stressed and valleys of depression in the industrial re-organization of our country, and,” he suggested, “even new conflicts in international re lations may appear.” The average man’s idea that military training includes merely toting guns, keeping in step and learning to drill is false according to Colonel Ardery. “Miliary training is of such a nature as to be just as helpful in civilian life as in-military service,” he said. Thus military experience is not a waste of time but, Ardery be lieves, a valuable asset to living iii any walk of life. “In training to be an officer,” he concluded, “traits that make good citizens are stressed continually, such as the following: character, dignity, endurance, judgment, loyalty, morale, logic, accurejcy, energy, and a source qf humor.” , .

Rabinowitz, who received 61 per cent of a Talent Night vote among Shirley Ives ’45, Donald R. Taylor ’42, and himself, will go to New York Monday, January 5, to re hearse for an appearance on the Fred Allen program January 7. He will also receive a $2OO award. “Any one of those kids would have been swell for Fred’s show” was the opinion of Fred Allen’s re presentative, James Harkins, who served 35 years in vaudeville and seven' years with the Allen pro gram. “Miss Ives is much better than most singers we’ve .heard at other universities,” he commented, “and Don Taylor is excellent.” Harkins again listened to audi tions of the trio of Talent Show finalists and several additional campus performers last night “in order to make a better-report-to Fred."

Committee Locates Graduates, Faculty Men In Army Camps (Editor’s note: This is the fourth in a series of articles explaining the work of the campus sub committees of the civilian defense .program.) A vital part .of the morale building program, that' of main taining contact with the .steadily, increasing number of Penn State men. scattered over ..the country by the national emergency is be ing carried out by the committee on contacts with faculty, students, arid, alumni in the aimed services. Under the chairmanship of Ed ward K. Hibshman, executive sec-; retary of the Alumni Association, the committee has set up a card file of all-Penn State men in the service of whom there are avail able records. The committee al ready knows the whereabouts of College men in 74 army camps ex tending from Puerto Rico to Washington and from the Philip-, pines to Iceland, and is 4 receiving more information daily. The chief obstacle, and a rath er serious one facing the com mittee is the constant shifting of men from camp to coup. This may be overcome to a consider able extent, Chairman Higshman (Continued on page four) Peters Voted PiKa Head Oliver J. Peters ’42 was elected president, Joseph A.
