We she Women Charity Still Begins At Home With drives being conducted for everything from Chinese Relief to the USO, with everybody becom ing increasingly conscious of the demand for national and interna tional assistance, we are likely to forget that students on this cam pus need financial help. It is generally recognized that the number and amount of avail able scholarships are proportion ately far too few for the number of Penn State students. Everybody wants more scholar ships, but only a few people want them badly enough to take action. Strangely enough,. the difficulty lies not so much in securing funds but in distributing them. • Both student leaders and administrative officials are hesitant to accept the responsibility and work which regulating awards entail. Finding an extra $3OO, WSGA Senate members last night unhesi tatingly converted the dormant money into awards. Senate members agreed that, despite need for contributions to the war effort, this money would be spent more wisely on campus. • Charity still begins at home.

HIRSHBERG '44 As the 9:15 blackout whistle warned everyone to take immedi ate shelter last night, numerous students and townspeople hurried down the mall and crowded into . the Corner Room to spend a halt hour of singing, smoking, joking, and fun. This is one time the Penn State "hello spirit" really functioned. Strangers invited strangers to share booths (could it be the dark?), and a good time seemed to be had by all. Thespians Ted Clauss, Mike Kerns, 'Bud Mellott, Barney Wein berg, and others went into their song (and dance) 'as they started off with "We've pot a Job to Do," Penn State's official victory song. Other "popular" campus tunes followed. As the smoke and heat gradually intensified the Corner Room at mosphere, we decided to look in to the State College banquet room, another blackout refuge. Ironically enough, we walked into a well4ighted, air-cooled room occupied by a lone Summer session student, Mrs. Mildred S. Wedge, from Harrisburg, and only woman in the industrial educa tion department. • Working for the state depart ment in Harrisburg, Mrs. Wedge is introducing a three months course in hotel and restaurant service at the State College High School. Mrs. Wedge was present at the first New York and Philadelphia blackouts. The noise, confusion, airplanes, and screaming sirens of the big cities are indeed a con trast to the well-organized exhi bition of last night, she said. Downstairs again, students were booming out with "Aloutte." Sirens and lights—and it was all over—until next time. P. S. Ross 13. Lehman, last year's Collegian editor, spent the blackout in Chem Physics base ment with 200 Mac Hall coeds. Rides Wanted RW—Philadelphia. Leave Friday afternoon. Call Jack Foreman, 2297. ltpd R.
