It winds up a semester of (Kilts all' aimed to fulfill the Collegian's policy "For A Better Penn State.") To Thy Memory "Where the vale of old Mount Nittany, Meets the Eastern sky Proudly stands our Alma Mater, On her hilltop high." Those were the words which stirred us when 'Nye first set bewildered feet. on Penn State. They ,were the words which made us feel that here was .)nore than grass and buildings. That was our first . (inkling—that night when all we green frosh-.got logether and sang and -theered the Lion. That night we lost that lonely, strange feeling and took *one stet) into what lies behind Penn State. - We wore our customs, our green bows, We :Lipped our • clinks when a bully yelled "Button." -And we were the culprits . who threw the eggS at *he "toe-nail biting" hatmen, yet looking to the flay when we could be hatmen. We felt then that our turn to attend the big -dances would be a long way , off. We swapped Stories with our classmates going through Hell Week; we took our share of orders from the.up perclassmen—all the while complaining about it, ,never stopping to think what we were going :through, or how we'd regard it later. And so we went on through college, later turn ing the tables on the frosh. We went out for ac :tivities, aiming for the top spot; working for one thing, attaining it, then seeking - further • heights. Now we're going to leave Penn State. We're 'going to leave behind those Old Main chimes, the .willow tree, that view up the mall, the fraternity, .the pals from all corners of the state, the wet dance weekends, the football games, Penn week end, the fast step c-f the Blue Band, frosh hazings, I.eo rally bonfires, the heated political campaigns, .gossip about pinnings, Penn State bull sessions— ' %wen the fraternity brawl. . It won't be long now. Less than two weeks to make all the things count which we . never appre ciated before. Less than two weeks to absorb as much of Penn State as we can—two weeks to walk arcund campus and dig up all those mem ories of what seems like yesterday. Penn State is where •we put the best years of 4.lur lives. Penn State. That's the place where rome of us had the chance 'to work our way to an education; where there were jobs for those who )leeded them; ...where the fellow working his way through college was admired, not - frowned on; where the students had a strong voice in what the college did and. thus prepared for life through many means not in books. Soon we too will stroll across the stage, get a diploma in one hand, a handsha,ke in the other, while all sorts of emotions grip us inside as we try •ic'e grasp what it is we're leaving: • And as we ride down the highway from Penn fltate for the last time and see that:tower gracing The sky as it fades from view, perhaps we'll think of the chorus of that song we learned when we were wearing green—just yesterday.

WINTER Everybody seems to have heard that this is th,e laq week of publication before Uncle Sammy really takes a crack at the ratio, so we won't go into that. At this, point people seem to be getting their final kicks in with the campus strewn with nature-lovers. Maybe Grounds and BUildings thought of that when they distributed the subtle signs hereabouts.
