SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1943 Women Compete in Intercollegiate Telegraphic Swimming Meet Today As the men face the intercol legiate swimming meets at Rut gers this afternoon, coeds will be swimming against unseen oppo nents in a final effort to grasp honors in the women’s intercol legiate telegraphic meet in. White Hall pool at 2:30 p.m. Last year the Penn State mer maids ranked third among the ma jor- Eastern colleges. Hopes are high for bigger national honors this year as freshman Marilyn Glor bisch, already national woman’s breast stroke champion, is within six-tenths of a- second of- the 100- yard national’time. This is the first time that a national champion has, represented the College in the mgets. Marilyn swims the butter fly breast stroke. Martha Goztonyi is another out. standing breast stroker who swims 'the" European style. “Gussie” is a native of Budapest, Hungary. The team is. pinning hopes on Gloria .Woodward, 40-yard free styler, and Joan Miller, 75-yard individ ual medley contestant. Marilyn will also swim in this event with Joan, who learned her almost per fect technique while she lived in Hawaii. Free stylers Joan Clark, Gloria 'Whyel, Peggy Quick, Estelle Brown, and “Tipi” Geyer are showing marked improvement, ac cording to Phyllis Watkins, man ager of the .team and president of the Swimming club. - .“This is the best swimming team in three years, boasting such [swimmers as Gloria Woodward ; ahd Marilyn Globisch,” said Miss Ti. Jean Swenson, swimming in structor and team coach. • “Telegraphic meets ate unusuai •ly difficult because- of almost ‘biind •swimming.’ The inability to see one’s;,: opponent puts- that last •swimming spurt at the finish en tirely upon the effort of the indi vidual swimmer. She has no way of - knowing if her competitor, •swimming at another college, is close to her or not,” the coach added. '■ “Babs” Clark, all-college ’champ •for. three consecutive years, was the mainstay of the team three -years ago. This year's team, how ever, shows all signs, if ability, and ■effort are atly* criteria, of breaking .college and intercollegiate records .as well ih women’s swimming.,. members Hold Vic Dance .

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN We, Dh Women Footstepless Grass. . . The Season's Best Gardeners have said it with signs every Spring for centuries. And coeds have paid attention to them about as accurately as a draft-dodger trying to convince the recruiting officer that he has 200-20 eyesight. Spring is in the air but not on the lawns. “Footsteps in the Dark” haven’t given it a chance. Despite grounds and buildings ordinances, edit o r s’ editorials, presidents’ pleadings, and just plain ordinary signs, the walking public insists on strolling cross country. This Spring, what with all the colorful uniforms and outfits of the service men and women sta tioned here, we’re plugging (not even subtly) for a ‘keep-off-the grass’ conscious College enroll, ment. Last night as this paper went to press and as the Spinsters were the first day of a Col lege-wide Red Cross Drive ended. Despite the fact that a large number of fraternities have just received notice to move, it is re ported that several of the Greek mansions have donated 100 per cent. Despite the fact, also, that wom men are taking over campus ac tivities in many cases, it’s the men who have made the initial con tributions. Not one of Penn State’s approxi mate 1,900 women have given to the All-College effort for the re lief-of America’s fighting forces at home and abroad. That’s great, coeds! [CLASSIFIED)' iwssreaps'!

Faloon Wins Title, Crowned King At Spinster Skip Rube Paloon, senior class president, added to his laui-els when he was crowned, with a saucepan, as King Dogpatch, Catch of the Cam pus, at the Cwens-Mortar Board Spinster Skip in White Hall last night. Runners-up for the title of most eligible bachelor on campus were Cliff “Hairless Poe” St. Clair, who was awarded a bottle of hair-tonic, and Hank ““Goose-grease” Keller, the proud winner of a shaving mug and shaving soap. Prizes were con ferred on the three lucky men by Margaret K. Ramaley, chairman of the dance. Pigtails were sported by many of the coeds who followed Sadie Hawkins’ advice and caught their men for the Skip. Plaid shirts of the loudest varieties were much in evidence as the 326 couples who .attended the dance cavorted to th music of George Washko's Cam pus Owls. Sketches of original Dogpatch characters decorated the walls of the gym, serving as inspiration to the one-night Nittany Valley hill billies. In addition to these car toons of Daisy Mae, Li’l Abner, and Mammy and Pappy Yokum, there was a mural, in true Sadie Hawkins Day style, of the race in which the gals had to engage in order to catch their men.
