Helen Dodd Graduate Counselor Saturday, March 7, 1942 `,The Forgotten Man In• one of The Daily Collegian columns recently, tile writer commented upon the forgotten men of iame, but we go one step further. Today, may We present the forgotten man. • This student hays never held an All-College post of responsibility. He never wanted one. He doesn't walk around campus with calf-length •trousers and vari-colored socks and a super "politician's air. He doesn't know how. • He never proposed any momentous bit of All enliege legislation to benefit his fellow• student, for 4id he serve on important Cabinet committees and help formulate campus opinion. He didn't want to. When the LaVie nersopality panes_are_ released. - may - rare - a --- spar; or, as many students with • @imilar talents, he may be forgotten beneath the deluge of campus "big shots." He will .be ...n.embered as a necessary unit of Penn State life, 92ut not as one who has formed Penn Stafte policies, But, he is Penn State. He never takes a bow, .-never asks one, but he turns the spotlight on 9thers. He works. When the Victory Ball was being planned, this student coordinated the whole program, spent :,)untless hours arranging minor details, and knew Iti.e would get nothing more than a pat on the back. That isn't all. • A masterful master of ceremonies, this fellow done more for cainpus defense projects than ugly single student. He has boosted Red Cross drives, camoaigned for student participation in defense courses, and is noted for his Thespian Mobile Units idea which is spreading like wild fire throughout Pennsylvania colleges and uni yersities. Not satisfied with only Pennsylvania army en tertainment units, he is planning to chase the idea across the United States and incorporate other colleges in a grand mobile unit scheme. He is an idea man. He writes skits for these Anobile units, organizes them, and then super vises the shows. He has gone without sleep, opent all night with black coffszio and empty sheets of copy paper trying out script ideas, and has re ceived no campus recognition. • The only compensation he receives is laughter .—laughter at his gags and antics. But, that is • enough. That is what he wants. He will jour voey to Lock Haven, stage a one-man benefit show for 'Bed Cross, and no complain if his expenSes cannOt - ne g)t his shai4e of laughs. When the army called his number, and the doc tor told him that he was overweight and asked thim if he still wanted to fight for Uncle Sam, ht. raid, "Sure, I still can run faster than the Japs." Uncle Sam rejected him on other physical quail -91! xwations. t a This forgotten riian is campus as a "funny man." He is. But he is more. He is the forgotten man because he works hard, asks ho credit, and receives none. He has contributed the name of Penn State to thousands of soldiers and given campus defense its first big boost. Well, here is our boost. We salute, with pride :3n ,- .1 humility, the biggest "campus big shot" of tiiem alt. We take our hat; off to "shaft In The Draft" flabitlwitz.

After surprise announcement of Harry James' sorry but, Charlie Mattern was aroused from his slumbers not once but eleven• times during the night to answer persistent phone calls which whispered ominously, "LOPEZ STINKS!"

We glean this gem from one of Professor Ban ner's ardent stooges, nit connected with this rag, to prove that we're not the only ones to hold these truths to be self-evident: There was a bug known as moth Who loved to feast on old cloth But as woolens got rare Mothie moved his lair And now he abides in Froth. Tribute To A Tribute Try a twinge of the vocal chords on this new brainchild of the versatile Leyden (not McAdam) entitled "Nittany." The stuff is there and it's mellow and mild.
