Fuosa Graduate Counselor k Thursday, February 19, 1942 Press Right! Old Main will dress up for inspection tomorrow taight! The occasion is worth a full-dress ceremony, sie-2ause students, waiting for two and a . half dears, will finally inaugurate the return of an All -o,ollege recreation room. The reason for dis- Panding the. former All-College recreation center m o,lcl Main was the lack of space for administra- V.ve offices. But now, the campus organizations are herald tJag the return of a game room with an All-College "sirinclig." An open house, sponsored by eight campus groups, will cut the tape and renew an added feature to Penn State entertainment. Barn ° dances, modern dancing, 'old time movies, ping pong and round robin exhibitions, and in ;format record playing of classical .and popular o;nusic will be offered to students visiting the ppen house in Old Main. The open house marks the reopening of an old era when Penn State stu- Oents could congregalte, participate in bull-ses ri.ons, and play individual and collective games. Penn . State, with 'its location in the middle of ».o-where, offers little in recreation facilities. A game room, such as this one, is needed. Frater nities are fortunate in being able to maintain reCreation rooms, but independent men have had s:).o. place to go except the Penn State Club. Where movies offered the only diversion in the life of a non-fraternity man, this room will re the monotony for a student cooped up in a rmall, ill-heated room. Now, when he has no money for entertainment and the urge to forget HIFT)ut his studies for an hour, he can visit the game room mid feel at home. We urge all of Penn State to turn out to make ittte Penn State open house a successful N4enture.

Once again, Dr. Richard W. <Dean) Grant will be offering a challenge to the. );3tion's best. About 15 years ago, the Penn State Glee Club ))tactically wrecked the Intercollegiate Glee Club .2ompetition by going• on a string of 7 victories in it years. Penn State, then, was the undisputed :cuter of glee clubs throughout the nation. In we have a sneaking suspicion that this was of the reasons that the Intercollegiate Glee Club championship contests were eliminated. This year. Fred Waring is sponsoring a nation wide contest to select the glee club of glee clubs. P.ann State has thrown its hat in the musical ring pad has challenged, as of old, the most prominent tcoups of the collegiate world. "Fight On State" was one of the popular glee , !tub arrangements of the old days and will prob -41), y be used again in Penn State's bid for charn -s)iui tship. We offer our congratulations to a ,iLt:•cior who has continued to give Penn State a V. iti uosition in nui,icat entertainmoni to ll • it,: tC.e Iliiiliilllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllffilillllllll lll l lllll 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 IVoofilig fi'affles We always seem te be writing columns we nev er intended to write. Today, we were going to tell you about William Basil Slish, the 904 - WY rabbit who laippo up the clew on the • cabbage leaves. Then .we decided to tell you about Amos Whiffles wllO, whiffed sew woofing waffles Which, woofed louder everytime ..Whiffles 'whiffed.. But, we ended up. in tle Quaker City, of all places, and saw a calendar which 'said: "The best future is in the -present." - • So, we decided to put 'away our whimsical but child's playthings and talk about. the war. We've 'been interested in . this no end, as has the Daily Collegian. Campy gives us little knick-knacks about gays who got it from the local board. Old Mania slapped Hetenyi gently on the wrist (we cheering).. Loki has decided to develop his abil ities to the utmost, with sidetracks to Moscow, so that he will be ready for ilegistration day. Ferdy, the worm, has been confused about war and seeks release in a discussion of love. Leh man is sure that we are "men of destiny." John Baer steadily notes the changes of draft regula tions, and some dopes scratch matches on the mural. If you haven't, gotten the point, we're giving you a precis of the Daily Collegian at war to date. Waxing Taxes Louis H. Bell We know you're not rushing us, but what's all this about, huh? We saw this Disney short on taxes at the State, and listened to the crowd hiss. Imagine that! The kids who are going to die and pay for this war hissing it. Gosh. That's pretty powerful stuff. Communistic or something. Gee. We , don't want to antagonize you because we hate production for destruction instead cif con sumption, too. We think building boys is better. than mending men. It_ was always a sentimental thought. of ours that the , young are fortunate for, they _will see,,great things. Ihlt, it begins, to be born upon us that maybe they're not going to get a chance to see them, or that they .won't be so hot after all. We think the war morale of this college stinks, and we're worried as hell, because the best future is the present, and if we don't do something in 'the present, the future isn't at all important. I guess we'd better just get on the ball, and do it damned quick, that's all.
