Go To Church Sunday
This Sunday will mark one on which many
si.dents will attend church services for the first
time this year. For others it will be merely a con
tinuation of the late Sunday morning sleep and
will allow . a string of such Sundays to go un
'broken. Bu•t this Sunday is one on which the
chronic Sleeper should arouse himself from bed
No chapel will be held on campus, but it is ex

Often 'the argument used to combat that last
vtatement 'is "Well, I study hard all week - and

But if the fact is considered that getting up for
,church means only one or two fewer, hours out.
of a probable' lb or 12 hours' of sleep, then that
argument is out.
This Sunday,' every student, whether •in State
College or in his home town, :should hear the

variety• from cards, highballs and . dancing
would go a long . way fOr many Penn State
shicients."

.many problems that are in
minds of students; many who attend church
;feel. they. get a lot from it, and that is the reason
'they go so often; it seems to me that we are really
getting somewhere when people can get together
for a common purpose of betterment."
Penn State attendance at chapel and in town
churches is generally regarded to be among:the
Mghest of college where compulsory attendance
at religious services is not in effect. That stand
ard should be maintained, or raised.

THIS COMAE WORID
WASHINGTON—(ACP)—War4ime government
is a 3-million job industry rapidly being taken
over by the ladies.
At the moment, hiring of both men and women.
in many sections of government is frozen. Orders
from the Budget Bureau have commanded a mul
titude of important agencies to bring staffs below
ceilings in 30 days—or else.
But this unseasonal freeze don't mean the war
boom in government service is over. Far from it.
The need for trained personnel, especially women,
in public service will continue. to . grow as . : goV-:
ernment war services expand and . reorganize: •
What's more, the piecemeal withdrawal of men
into the armed forces is just beginning to hit gciV 7
ernment where it hurts—in the ranks of 3-A.
How many women will be needed before the
year ends .is anybody's guess. No authority will
venture an official estimate. But whatever the
•
number. it's sure to be large.
