Most of the states have made adequate provision in their public colleges .and universities for the education of their young people. It is clear that our Commonwealth, as never before, will need technically train ed leadership and research and extension services of institutions of higher learning if it is to assume its proper place in the postwar era."

Ag Student Council Plans Picnic al Whipple's Ag Student' Council, the only active student council on campus lois semester, planned a picnic for all agriculture and home eco nomics students at Whipple's Dam, August 12, at the regular meeting Wednesday night. Students planning to attend are urged to sign up at Student Un ion, according to Edward Wil liams, president. Committee in charge includes Dean Fyock, Ivan Kline, Helen Barr, Lois McCool, and Dorothy Evans. Prof. William A. Broyles of the Agriculture Education depart ment spoke to the group on "Am ateur Photography." The council decided to have a guest speaker from the department at each meeting. Other committees appointed to function during the semester are: program and work, Caroline Gra ham, Ross Christian, Richard Treible, Martha Gosztonyi; pub licity, Richard Treible, James Thompson, Edward Williams.. Veterans To form New Organization All honorably discharged veter ans of this war are urged by Prof. Andrew W. Case of the Depart ment of Architecture to meet at the American Legion Home, Fos ter avenue and Pugh street, 7:30 p.m. Monday to draw up plans for a new organization. Proponent of this new group is Harry McMillin, second semester freshman, who was honorably dis charged from the Army. Only hazy outlines have been sketched by Professor Case and McMillin, but they are certain that if enough veterans show up at the meeting, a permanent organization will be born.

In fact, the College vegetable gardens ex-' tended from Park avenue to Col lege avenue. Encroachment by time and pro gress forced a change iii location. Construction of Atherton, Grange, the InflrMary, and the Stock Pa vilion pushed the gardens to their War News- (Continued from page seven) passes that of their Stalingrad of Pensive of 1942. Politico-Military Front Allied prowess in arms appeared to yield quick results on the poli tico-military front. 'Finland de posed President Ryti in favor of Baron Mannerheim in a move which might eventually take her out of the war. Turkey brought her tortured neutrality near a close by breaking off diplomatic rela 7 tions with Germany. A political question of first im portance sprang from the onrush ing waves of Russians liberating Poland: just how was that liber ated country to be governed? Ap parently the Russians, at least, were in no dilemma on this issue, for in a not unfamiliar pattern of unilateral action they snubbed the London Polish Government in Ex ile by recognizing the Polish Com mittee of National Liberation, formed within their own borders, as the agency for this purpose. Premier Mikolajczk of the Exile Government, h Avever, is now in Moscow, and a rapprochment be tween the two groups may yet be worked out. Another important diplomatic development was the release by Secretary Hull of a . sharply word ed statement reprimanding Argen tina for her "open" and "notori ous" aid to the Axis. The state ment recommended continued non-recognition of the Argentine government by all other American republics until a change of policy by the Farrell regime is assured. Pacific Front Notable events also took place in the Pacific. Among these should be mentioned the B-29 raid on Mukden, the use on Tinian Island of an American secret weapon said to kill all within 100 feet, end the landing at Sansapor, Dutch New Guinea, just 600 miles from the Philippines. Progress in Italy was satisfactory if not spectacular. A dark spot on the home front was the strike tying up transpor tation in Philadelphia and mater ially retarding war output in that city. Workers were said to be striking in protest against the ele vation of eight Negro employees to the rank of motorman. icemen will be dismissed as battle casualties and will begin to think of entering college, said Professor Case. These returning men will be able to .orient themselves to col lege life quicker, he concluded, if they can join ,a group of students who have undergone similar ex periences. present spot, approximately one half mile east of the dairy pad docks. A few plots remain near Park avenue and Shortlidge Road. The gardens are part of the Horticulture department's pro gram of instruction and research. Outstanding among the products produced by experimentation is the Ballhead cabbage, noted for its yield' and uniformity. Dr. Myers, now retired, succeeded, in [ producing this variety after 36 years of research.. Sales amount to between $5,000 and $6,000 annually. Since Dining Commons purchases from the vegetable gardens, dormitories on campus serve their produce. Oth er customers include the Nittany Lion Inn and local grocers. Whole sales purchasers are not the only ones to whim the gardens cater; individuals may also buy any thing which is available. During this growing season pro jects include an irrigation ex periment and plant breeding ex periments on tomatoes and cab bage. Previous work has produc ed two stemless varieties of toma toes. As a contribution to the war ef fort any food which is produced is valuable. But not only do the vegetable gardens yield food and give students an opportunity for practical work, they also aid agri culture as a whole. The research carried on in the gardens pays dividends to the whole industry. Summer Session (Continued from page one ) V. Maser, 8.5.; June E. May, B. S.; Mariana Mehaffey, M.Ed.; S: D.
