All-College Cabinet has been accused of going halfway in their program to gear Penn State’s cludent body and its activities to wartime stand- Jbast week the group placed a ban on student automobiles and at the same time approved a social calendar which included two big class “name band” dances along with other smaller ounces. Some have accused the student govern ing body of being inconsistent. Comment on the driving ban has been largely favorable. Nearby metropolitan newspapers have -.given the College much complimentary publicity in regard to the ban, and student objector? have only been able to point out that its going to in convenience them a bit; which is exactly what the "war is doing for a lot of people and to a muclx Creater extent. ■ But why the usual big dances? "Why haven’t these been either cut out or curtailed. • Under a normal social calendar only Soph Hop' would be scheduled for the first semester of a .school year. This semester the Hop and Junior-.* Senior Ball ar e scheduled. But during normal first term there would also be a football season t which in the past meant three other big social ' weekens, Dad’s day, Alumni day, and Fall House party. In a normal second semester- the social calen dar would boast Senior Ball, Interfraternity Ball, Junior Prom, and Mother’s Day. This adds up to .four 'big weekends per semester—the pre-war program. Administrative authorities have said again and again that College life should continue as nearly possible to its past status as long as this is within s eason. They have asked the students to temper rather than completely disband their usual plans. Therefore it. would seem that with only two liig weekends scheduled for this semester that the program has been, tempered; in fact it has 'been ■cut in half. Not Ann Edict All-College Cabinet’s action last night in dis couraging the practice of inviting outside guests to Penn State in order to conserve, gas, tires and transportation facilities is not an edict. That body of student representatives is hot trying to jam anything down anybody’s throat. They merely stated a policy, or opinion, or rec ommendation —call it what you will. Imports are not prohibited, but any students with one eye cocked to the war effort will think twice before wasting these valuable materials through having .such guests. ■ . Penn State is trying to temper it? social calen dar for war. It would be possible to cut out these two big dances, but students ,would probably find less wholesome means of spending a weekend without them. • The statement of Cabinent opinion which was recorded is also in line with other attempts to conserve gas and tires through the ban on any student driving in this vicinity. There’s no rea son "why Penn State can’t have a dance for Penn /Haters and try to help Uncle §am by discourag ing unnecessary travel. . • Yes, imports, will probably be brought here for big weekends. But It’s pleasure traveling, and it’s using buses arid- trains for non-essential, purposes. It’s against national regulations too, Downtown.

(Merely as a side issue why was a Play Night scheduled the same night as WSGA’s worthy dance. Don’t they work to gether?'! Whew, we barely got the provocative thought away from our consciousness in time. From another angle, those week-end “play” pro grams are .slightly ridiculous. Planned, no doubt, for girls who don’t have dates,' the brain-trust failed to recognize a bit of feminine psychology; Coeds without dates are not going to the “spin ster” event, thus revealing their datelessness, and the perennial non-daters (who now. scarcely ex ist since the Navy put ashore) won’t go because, well, who wants to look at the same faces all the time.

And so the war. with White Hall drags to an in answer to some critics, we might add that we never in tended our program of men and women using the place as part of the phys .ed program, but simply as a recreation gesture in what they tell JJS are trying times. Sic. * . - Louir? H. OeU But still, after all; -what the hell. Here’s a bit of whimsy to laugh over. It is Sir William Osier's quaint observation on students • written,, -as you will see, quite some time ago: “Like the snark the student defies definition, but there are three unmistakable sins by which you may recognize the genuine article from the Boojum; an absorb ing desire to know the truth, an unswerving stead fastness in its pursuit, and an open, honest heart, free from suspicion, guile and jealousy.” ... . that’s the way we feel too.

MiUer Warns Of Dairy Shortages , Instead of increased production : to speed the war effort, smaller. supplies of milk, eggs, and meat are ; in- prospect unless current' stocks of livestock feeds . are ju-. diciously distributed and utilized, H. C. Miller agricultural andbir. plpgical chemist at > the . - declared today, ' . S: >.. V . l: Dairymen, poultrymea,, and livestock producers in general are suffering from -priorities, price ceilings,, and inadequate transport tation facilities, Feeds rich in pro- • teins, minerals, and vitamins" are the most difficult to obtain 1 . No re strictions prevail, however, on common sense, a commodity which may be used to ease short-' ages of all these materials, he emphasized. Comfortable livestock often re mains thrifty and productive, as all farmers know, when careless ly managed flocks and herds do not. In times such as these, items like sanitation, sunshine; and pas ture assume added importance with little or no increase in cost. Animals wallowing in manure are uncomfortable, are subject to • disease, and often are infested with parasites. To attempt to nourish them properlv is waste ful. . Sunshine costs nothing and is easily obtained by animal's on pasture. It aids the animal body to supply its own vitamin D: which, in turn, assists in more complete utilization of minerals, in the feed. ' . Pasture should -supply more than exercise and it .may provide the cheapest feed available. Good permanent pasture cannot be de vloped in a single season but an nuals may be seeded which .will serve in emergencies. Alfalfa' is one of the best legumes but others are good. Pasture adds something to the vigor and health of ani mals which is difficult to purchase in a feed sacfc Grass silage, helps to extend some of the benefits of pasture throughout the. winter. 108— 108 84— 84 Dancing Classes Begin (H Bowling Scores I hßtfom).
