THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Cadette Notes
Curtiss-Wright Cadettes and
Signal Corps men are combining
their forces for a vie dance in
Irvin Hall lounges from 9 p.m. to
midnight Friday. Co-chairmen of
the affair are Ruth Forster, Ca
dette social chairman, and Melvin
Cadane, representing the Signal
Corps.
WRA Red
•om 7 until
Levin and
Cadettes are planning and fur
nishing a recreation room in Watts
Hall basement, under the direction
of Sansa R. O’Conner and Edith
B. James, co-chairmen. When fin
ished the playroom will be com
plete with piano, ping-pong tables,
and other recreational facilities.
One of the first official acts of
the Cadettes ‘ when they hit the
campus was to compose a song.
The words, the combined efforts
of a group of the women, are
worthy of note:
I’m a rambling Cadette Penn State
just met
And a helluva engineer, a helluva,
helluva, helluva, helluva,
helluvan engineer.
Like all jolly good coeds, we come
from far and near;
I’m a rambling Cadette Penn State
just met and a helluvan
engineer.
And if I had a daughter fair
I’d start her from babyhood to
train for Curtiss-Wright.
But if I had a son, sir, I’U tell you
what I’d do
He’d fly the planes his mamma
.made, and work for Curtiss,
too.

Prof. J. Paul Selsam of the de
partment of history will speak on
“What Are We Fighting For?” for
a senior engineering lecture in 121

LETTERS TO EDITOR
(Continued from Page Three)
ed the fact that -fhe fraternities
had been warned a month ago of
this impending inconvenience and
should have been prepared for it.
If that was the case, why. the last
minute rush, why have we been
kept in the dark, and why haven’t
adequate plans- been made? It
certainly seems there has been a
lot of inefficiency somewhere.
I believe that I am speaking
for the boys of the fraternities
who are moving when I say, “We
are patriotic, we are glad of' the
opportunity that we have of be
ing some help to the armed forces
but what we want to know is why
the "College hasn’t been giving us
any help in becoming adjusted
and finding solutions to our many
problems.”
Hoping that if any more frater
nities have to move they will be
better taken care of.
Sincerely
