One couple was questioned and both agreed the date was a "howling" success. Now there are 200 other gals raring to go ac cording to the files. Of these 50 to 75 have already made connec tion: with the Navy, Air Corps, Engineers, or Marines and we're just waiting to see 50 to 75 sparks fly -this weekend.

One word of caution, however, anyone interested in a commissioned navy man- (could we mean the ensigns) will have to reap their harvests in 'happier hunting grounds.

His introduction was rather brief, with a warning for the audience to prepare itself to hear some thingq they might not choose to believe as the gospel truth. Dr. Lerner let the man down when he did not go off the deep end and did not give out with anything radical or sensational. On the con trary, the distinguished speaker presented a very rational plan for winning the.peace that must fol low the termination of the war. During the question and answer period, Dr. Lerner was invited to tell his views on the Soviet Union, and there again the expectant au dience was let down. It was a lib eral view, true, but tempered with criticism. In passing, we'd like to say that if large attentive audiences can be drawn by speakers who may be controversial in their talks, then there should be more of them. Penn State had an evening out for a change this week. By The Bushel The other evening on the way up to the office, we stopped at the main gate to watch the crowd at the Corner storming the -Froth salesman. Circulation Manager James J. Casey was on hand to supervise the proceedings, and was mentally rubbing his hands as each additional twenty cents clinked in the till. When the clink was a bit more subtle, say a rustle_ like when the customers made with dollar bills, Casey relieved the cashier of his . burden. But the way we heard it, "Watch the pennies, and the dollars will take care of themselves."

From what we hear, there is going to be a bunch of candidates. for the first semester prexy job. The latest estimate that we heard' was about twenty. There isn't any lack of spirit, but it is to be de•- plorel that most of the pre-pre campaign stuff is still centering around schools. To the frosh we want to say that the president is supposed to represent the best in terests of his class as a whole and not some small unit in it. Of course,, the smart politicians in former years always made sure that F.ll sections of the class had something on the ballot to pull the vote. Now the emphasis is on in dividual effort rather than on or ganized groups. The theory that motivated this change holds that with the abolition of the parties there will be an increase in the efforts of individuals to attain of fice. If this were so, and the the ory held water, the results would probably be fine. There will be no cliques work ing in the freshman voting, as there were in the recent elections, becalise the underclassmen have not yet had time to get together and know each other well. But whatever way it is done, the main idet is to get out the vote and have each man and woman cast his bal-. lot for the candidate of his choice. You're paying for this 'privilege, so why not use it. Penn State is justly proud of. its system of stu dent government, and much of its merit depends on the mass partici pation of the student body. • Bottle Parties And again the Pugh Street Ly ceum ran dry. If this keeps up, people will begin to lose faith in the established traditions and not believe in anything any more. As we were going by. honest, we look ed in the windows Saturday night and couldn't figure out why there were so many vacant spaces. At first, we thought to ourselves that playnight must be big-time stuff to hue that. many of Doggie's cus tomers away. But when we were even with the entrance, we heard the , explanation, "Dried up for the night." And on Monday the short age was still in effect, with only bottled goods for sale.
