Don would see freshmen herded on the football field between quarters and marched around the stands singing college songs. Turning away from the campus, Don would depart convinced that the present day freshmen were withstanding their initiation into college life like troopers. The freshmen are riot griping because they are made to attend rallies, and they are cooperating by car rying on the "hello" spirit. But Don was hardened by the rough treatment of the upperclass men and after' customs were re moved, he felt that he 'belonged on campus and could encourage col lege activities. Even customs has been affected by the times. CLASSIFIED SECTION LOST—One silver case Elgin wrist watch. Please call 4728. Real Italian spaghetti and meals served at 501 W. College avenue.

Lion Cub Boarding At Central Park Zoo With football season just around the corner, people are starting to wonder what ever be ! came of the Penn State mascot, the real live lion cub. Is he still alive? Where is he? Is he com ing back to college? Will he be at the football games?

Shigley of the School of Agri ; culture was put in charge of feeding and taking care of him.

He .wanted -to go back to' the Central Park Zoo and his mother. Just to give his argument a little punch he re fused to eat and had to be fed rililk from a bottle like a baby. Besides , he didn't like all the people that came to visit It looked for a while as though he was going to die, and then' the college decided to send him back to the big city for a visit, with the understanding that he Six Frosh Are Exempt From English Comp Six newly-enrolled freshmen have been exempted from English composition I at the College be cause of their general excellence in English, Professor T.
