Mopes For Afterward
Not so long ago there appeared on this page of
The Daily Collegian an editorial suggesting the es
tablishment of Pennsylvania State College Press.
The reason given for such a press as this was that
Penn State has now achieved the recognition due it
ji. to have a means of expressing itself in its vari
ous fields: chemistry, physics, agriculture, mineral
industries, engineering, education, the liberal arts,
.und physical education. Perhaps the best way of
expressing itself in these arts and sciences is for
•Penn State to have a press of its own, an estab
lishment which will gain even greater recogni
tion for the College and make its name outstand
ing, as it deserves to be, among the leading col
leges and universities of the country. *
To date, there has been no mention of a start
towards the goal of a Penn State Press, or whether
There is to be a start on a project worthy as this.
To have a press of its .own will without doubt be
beneficial to the College. Research work done on
This campus will be able to be expressed in many
journals or books which a press would bring about.
It would also serve as an incentive to many of
our faculty members who, up to the present time,
have been somewhat reluctant to consider writ
ing a thesis of some sort or another because they
■do not have the opportunity to have their materi
al published. A press would bring out many new
ideas which heretofore would be unknown, never
having had the chance to appear before the public
in published form.
There is no doubt amongst the educators of the
country that Penn State can hold its own in com
parison to any other college or university in the
country. If so, why not a Pennsylvania State Col
lege Press? Most of the nation’s leading educa
tional institutions can boast of publishing com
panies of their own. Why can’t Penn State?
• The war, Too, is a drawback to the establish
ment of a press for the College, Then, also, the
-Commonwealth might not think it worthy enough
to grant some sort of a subsidy for such a. project.,
Rut the fact that it is a worthy one should have
no debate. Despite the fact that Penn State may
not see a press of its own until the war is over,
whenever that may be, we hope that at least a
.start will be made at the present time so that the
name of this College may be pushed on to further
and greater heights.
Lose Something?
Losing books is a common practice at Penn
State, and a large number of them are returned
to Student Union where they cari easily be picked
•up by proper owners. Student Union even tries to
find the loser of an article by mailing him a card
informing him that Student Union is the present
possessor.
But Student Union cannot perform this service
if the student’s name is not in the book, or
other former owners’ names have' not been cross
ed out. Information from this lost and found cen
ter indicates that there are at least 40 books oh
the shelves which have been returned, but bear
no name. Almost an equal number of books are
left over from the Book Exchange, awaiting claim
ants. There are even students who have money
coming to them from sale of exchange books,
and have not collected it.
Cl you’ve lost something, report it to Student
Union. Make sure you have your name on nil ar-
ticles before you lose them next time, too,

First oil, today, ive have an obligation to Regis
trar Hoffman which must be cleaned up. But be
fore we do that, just to make it legal, we would
like to extend a cordial invitation to the girls in
his office to see us off to the army. We would ask
him to expect within a few day? word of the time
and place of our departure.
Mr. Hoffman’s lack of a sense of humor has
cost him much prestige in our eyes. Besides fail
ing to see the point of the whole nonsensical yam,
he has attacked us for being unpatriotic by speak
ing |in disparaging tones about the USS Scaven
ger. Same charge we hereby deny, and ask that
-Mr. Hoffman reconsider his violent attack on us.
Ensign Gates had nothing to do with the gag we
were pulling, We spoke merely of. AN ensign. And
we weren't kidding about the way they are steal
ing the women from under our very noses.
Da Dances . ..
Over the weekend we were able to drop by the
weekend’s social activities. At the AEPhi formal
Saturday night we saw more Phi Sigma Deltas
than anything else, including AEPhis. Among
them were George Cohn with Ruth Schwartzman,
Larry Koennisberg with Larry Bank. The girls
showed some of the men around here by dragging
along a couple imports. It appears the tables are
turning. G. G. Rosen brought a Betasig from Cor
nell, Patty Beldock had a Kappa Nu from Penn.
As a result of said dance, or some part of it, Rhea
Silverstone is now wearing Harold Epstein’s Beta
sig jewelry and. Marion Rabinowitz has a Beta
sig sweetheart pin from George Somebody-or-
Other From Somewhere.
At WSGA’s V-Male Special, which, inciden
tally, we think is quite a handle for a dance here,
especially now, we singled out the following cou
ples—Bill Reirrter Deltachi and Ginny Klaus' Al
phachio . . . Jim Stavely DU and Mary Matry
AOPi . . . Bob Hicks Daltachi and Libby First
Kappa . . . Ross Lorenz Lambdachi and Louise
Gwillim . . . George Pitt'enger Deltachi and Ruth
Storer APOi How the hell did all those Delta
chi’s get in here.
Incidentally,we think WSG'A missed the boat:
by not captalizing on The President’s birthday as
a theme for their dance.
Duck, Da Cops!!
The local gendarmerie appeared just in time
to nick the snowball battle of the year Sunday.
Half the fraternities in town Were attacking the
DU ranch when one of the boys pulled into sight.
We never saw so many guys get hidden so fast
before in our lives. To top the affair off right he
threatened to take all the Beaver Avenue houses
into custody for disturbing the peace on Sunday.
My, what a big jail they must have here!!
