Bell Friday Morning, March 26, 1943, They Think Not An American flag, brightened by the ‘ setting Bun, creeps' slowly down a silvery pole as the jbugler sounds “Retreat,” A pale blue sky forms a Jpleasant background for the scene as swelling Luds and refreshening grass hint that Spring has icome. The cool air flutters the symbol of freedom steadily dipping earthward, and fans the small- standing at attention. But while this revered event is taking place there are others , who walk complacently by, or jhurry past lest, they be two minu'tes late getting to the restaurant. ‘ . ■ Yes, it’s Penn State we’re speaking of. At 5:15 •p, m. every - day. There actually are persons on this campus who ignore the ceremony of lower ing 'the colors. Every patriotic American knows that there are certain customs which should be observed. When •the National Anthem is played in public, for in-, stance, the American knows he should stop, face 'in the direction of the music, remove his hat, and stand at attention. At flag raising or lowering .ceremonies, too, as the bugle plays reville, or re treat, respectively, he again should stop, face the Hag, and stand at attention. Men in service salute. : We don’t know whether this failure to pay at tention to “.Retreat” is from pure ignorance of customs, or from plain indifference. Whatever the case, it should happen no longer • When you’re walking down the mall at 5:15 p. ).ti. and the flag ceremony is taking place—stop. Face the flag. Stand at attention. If in uniform, salute. If you notice someone ignoring the pro cedure, just hope down deep that he isn’t a stu dent at Penn State, for no good Penn Stater is rude to his country. $4,000 To Go 'Penn State’s Red Cross drive is in its final week with only slightly over $l,OOO of the $5,000 goal -realized in collections so far. No estimate can be made as to what the final week’s contributions will bring the figure. If you have not already contributed —do so now. This campaign is a Penn State students’ pro ject. And as Penn State students develop the pro ject so will Penn State students receive credit. .Students and students only are being solicited.in the campus'drive. Faculty and staff employees are all being contacted through the town coirupittee. . If the derive does not reach its quota, the blame' can hardly go to,-the committee conducting the <lrive. Recent shufflings of quarters in town has knocked the bottom out of a lot of the established soliciting machinery. And regardless, it is each student’s obligation to make his contribution. vol-" untarily rather than being solicited. . The Red Cross will come to you when you are in need. Now the Red Cross is in need. Won’t you rorne to it? f’etin State topped its quota in the Red Cross campaign during the last war. Isn’t that an in- centive?

CLEVER Tradition has it that when a Collegian column ist inserts his last column, he either pays homage to his many friends on campus—if it can be said that a Collegian columnist has any friends—or he writes all of those things .which he has been wanting to write for four years. It goes without saying that we must have liked something about this place or we would Tiever have stayed here this long. On the other hand, those who have occasionally r6ad our column know that we have done endugh bitching for one college career. There just isn’t much more to say. Our case differs, too, somewhat irofea the usual run of last-column-writers. .Instead of a diploma, we’re getting an induction notice. Surprise! Dick McNaul was astonished. Polly Keller was mystified, and Polly Tressler was angry when they read yesterday’s Collegian. Mr. Kimmel re ported a forthcoming McNaul-Keller nuptial. Wrong Polly. Chapter Room We hear that some of the local fraternity presi dents are breathing a sigh of relief now that it has been decided that booths will be available for fraternity groups at Junior-Senior Ball. ' Now they can get enough fellows together to have, a house meeting. Finis While -we were trying to figure , out how to fill out the remainder of the space alloted. to this column, the editor handed us a latter. To a Collegian columnist, a letter—even a letter of indignation—is highly cherished. We know then someone is reading our stuff. ' This particular letter, however, was especially welcome. Kinter, Kimmel, and Dolinger ha’qp, during the course of the year, ieceived occasional ■letters commending them on ” their’’ reasoning, breadth of knowledge, or some other intangibleV Not so with us. Nothing ever came through blit acid little notes, suggesting that we hold oiir head Under - water. Frankly, we had just about given up hope. ■ ■ . , v,' The letter, concerned our column of last week which tried to vindicate members of the Student Housing Board. Our correspondent—a member of the administration —did the most unusual thing— hp agreed with-us. Somehow it makes us feel better about leaving this job.
