Bell ...... Tuesday, Fe;_auaxy 17. 1942 $1,500 A Year For What? Few students comprehend the importance of debating as rn activity at Penn. State.. Few stu klents stop to think to what use the twenty-fiVe t:ent fee they pay each semester toward debating Enid the glee club is put. Evidence of this fact .is Vie obvious lack Of interest 'shown by students the star: ping dearth of attendance at debate vactivities. • With an estimated student body of 6,000, the debate and glee club fee represents a sum of 112,000 per year. Presuming that, this is divided 'equally, there is $1,501 set aside yearly for de te activities. The student body pays this sum but the student 'body doesn't get its money's worth 'because the student body seldom bothers to take advantage ') . t the programs offered by the debate-team. . There are two excuses for this financial waste. :Either the debate team is at fault for not pre vienting a worthwhile program for student con-. 'Gumption or the student body is to blame for not Amothering to learn what the debate team is doing had profit by attending its functions. We•believe 4,lie latter to be true. Penn State's debate group 'offers a well-round-, ed program of debates, forums, audience partici w.tion programs ana other public speaking pro gr.aans. They carry the College's name to many other campuses througa intercollegiate competi 'ion. And they carry the name well. Penn State :i;; respected as a debating power by all opponents. Penn State's debate group affords excellent wyoblic speaking training to better than 50 stu dents who make up its men's varsity, women's varsity and freshman teams. These groups are doininatod by speech majors. Students en -s:oiled in agricultural education, pre-veterinary, industrial engineering, ]ournalism, chemistry, and ),,re-legal courses are some of those from varied courses receiving practical speech experience through the medium of debating. In the coming weeks the debate team faces the heaviest part of its schedule. Here is an.oppor thrifty for the student body to Start eating the cake they've had for years before it goes stale. Debates aren't dull; they're vitally interesting. Get out and get your money's worth. , Gamplis Pride— Ia a month it will be spring. 'While it is said "a :young man's fancy lightly turns towards thoughts of love," the fancy of the College turns towards IH.Aking our campus look beautiful. Many of us like to boast of the beauty Of our oaniptis. It's a big job to keep the grass of the .!autpus in good condition. The College runs into aterous expenses paying for seed, fertilizer; and ass-cutting. Why ruin it all just to save a few u;leps in walking to your nine o'clock? Strolling in front of Old Main is all right. Loll ;ig about in back of senior walk won't harm the iss. It's the repeated short cuts that maul •;t, beauty of our campus and lends it to the .r.hildbare appearance of a miskept lawn. Th. , . College could not do much more than it is don e now to improve the "face" of the campus. Th,sesc is up to us. It's easy. Let's cooperate. Ye,!, ,11' the grass.

Some of he testimonials .you see in current magazines are far-fetched enough without our favorite -little' vestpockct number posing this honey: "Arriong the 20 badly injured passenger in a bus crash at San Francisco's .Golden Gate Bridge was George Randall. Though his leg was crushed and his nose and several rib's were broken, he would not let himsoif be removed until the others had een rescued. To keep his mind off his sufferings while he waited, reports the San Francisco Chronicle, he lay. in the wreckage read ing the Reader's Digest." Grr.
