“Love Rides the Rails or Will
the Mail Train Run Tonight?” is
a harrowing tale of the trials and
tribulations of a happy little, rail
road town and the misfortunes cast
upon this group by the dastardly
villains who try to spread evil
where happiness bloomed.
Included in the melodrama is a
cabaret scene in which a can-can
chomis and specialty numbers
will participate and add to the at
mosphere of the turn of the cen
tury story.
Contrary to custom, the heroine
rescues the hero as the plot un
folds.

THE DAILY COLHEGIAN
IA/e. ZJhe Women
Coeds May Guard
‘Heaven’s Streets
Letters, phone calls, and pow
erful oaths have issued forth from
the Atherton “Hang on to your
seats” campaign, but in a time
when Red Cross drives, bandage
rollings, and auxiliary service or
ganizations are staring coeds in
the face, those petty things hardly
deserve a nod of recognition, we
thinks.
Government officials have set
up and described such organiza
tions as the WAACs, and SPARs
for interested College women. Just
yesterday, the paper carried a
story concerning a recent Wag en
listee.
Yet little has been mentioned
about the Marine Reserves ... a
worthy women’s group, minus a
glamorous title but right in the
limelight as far as working ca
pacity is concerned.
To fill |positions vacated in
Marine administrational offices,
women, at least 20 years old, may
apply. Their work will parallel
the jobs of other alphabetical or
ganizations in another scope of
the service. They will don green
service outfits.
In order that interested coeds
may obtain further information
concerning the .newly-created
group, representatives of the gov
ernmental aide will arrive Monday
to interview and examine College
persons.
Actual swearing-in of those
meeting qualifications will take
place also, officials announced in
an advance letter.
Coeds eager to investigate ac
tual working opportunities offered
by this fourth of the service or
ganizations will find it valuable to
visit the temporary headquarters
in Old Main Monday.
It has been promised that when
other service men “arrive at Heav
en’s scenes, they’ll find the streets
are guarded by the U. S. Marines.”
Nice work if you could aid in
it.. .and you can if you appear at
those interviews next week.
up in the running. Favored above
the Lions in the competition are
Wisconsin and Syracuse.
Dave Homstein, Penn State’s
rangy center, was named on West
Virginia’s all-opponent basketball
five recently. The first-string pivot
man scored 15 points against the
Mountaineers in their tiff here at
State College.
Only other State man to be cited
was forward Larry Gent, who re
ceived honorable mention from the
down-South pickers.

As Barometers, Dig
Nests In Bad Weather
_Rats have no need for govern--
mbttt weather forecasts, according
to Dr. N. B. Guerrant, biochemist
at the College. Even the pamper
ed strains kept in laboratories for
experimental purposes are aware
of the approach of storms, he and
riiany other scientists have observ
ed.
“Right here in our cages, old'
mamma rats having 60 genera
tions Of ancestors which lived
their entire lives in confinement
still scratch nests of litter around
their little ones when bad weather
threatens,” Dr. Guerrant com
mented. These rats are kept in
completely air-conditioned sur
roundings, they have no view of
the outdoors although the labora
tory is brightly lighted during the
daytime, and most of them never
have experienced any other en
vironment.
“We do not have to watch'them
so' closely now 1 ,” he continued,
“but in the old laboratory where
we depended on natural ventila
tion," we always closed the windows
in winter when the rats began
making beds. Farmers and ware
housemen often wonder what be
comes of these .animals during
periods of sub-zero weather. No
doubt jats seek warm, dry quar
ters a day or two before humans
begin to look for galoshes and
mittens.”
