On Alumni Weekend
Asks Students, Grads
For Closer Contact
In an attempt to brine before
the students of Penn State the
'importance of being friendly and
hospitable to alumni who return
over Alumni-Dad's Weekend,
George M. Arisman, president of
the Penn State Alumni Associa
tion, has issued the following
statement.
"Alumni Homecoming Day is
intended not only for the alumnus
when he may return to State
College and find many of his fel
low alumni there, but it is the
undergraduate's pre-alammts day
as well. The alumnus comes
back
,to the campus because he
has sufficient interest in State
College
. as a place . to spend one
or two days for different pur-
poses.. Some. come for relaxation
thers 'not' only for this, but
•because they are %interested in one
thing or another. on campus. •
.:CREATR,ALUMNI - . INTEREST

'alumnus .may feel some thinp

-.you • would • like to , talk to some- ,
one about the vocation you -ex
pect to-.follow later in life.- You
: may - think the •• curriculum needs
• tuning up. You can• get help
:from .the alumnus by creating in
him an - interest in the things 'you
. would like to see at Tenn - State.
"This can, be • done without
- making him feel he.should pledge
a large sum of money , for one
purpose or another, or that he
should. - be obligated to give. an
unusual amount of his time. If
you will make, an effort to gain
, his • good - will showing..• your
interest in him, you will do much
to get things you want, on the
Penn State campus.
ALUMNI CAN HELP
"Perhaps you think one or an
other of your professors-is not
top-notch • all the time; perhaps
• he-does- - not have an adequate in

"You will soon find yourself
acquainted with someone who
,will always be your nest friend,
While you are in college, when
you graduate, or following gradu
ation. The aluinnus (man or
woman) needs your hospitality to
make his stay at Penn State an
enjoyable one during Alufnni
Homecoming. Weekend. You need
his or her good will and help to
build • a greater Penn State for
you while you are in college and
for those to follow.
"May I suggeSt.to the alumnus
that you make a special effort to
show the undergraduate you are .
willing to meet him half way in
doing a greater job for Penn
State and take advantage of the
hospitality and friendliness he .
offers to .you."

Fathers will not want to miss
this news•tof vital interest to them

want to be kept in the dark about
their daughters and their rela

fully on all coed activities, and

war problems and work.
At the last count, there were
almost 1500 Penn State men in
the armed services, most of them
in camps scattered throughout the
country. From time to time, let

asking for news of their Alma
Mater, of their friends, and de
velopments on campus.
What better answer could they
be given than a subscription' to
the Daily Collegian. Already the
Daily Collegian is being mailed to
43 camps through the "from •the
