"In no other state in the union
does such a situation exist. 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

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.
With major engagements on all
fronts looming ahead, many serv-

Atherton Coeds Replace
Asparagus and Tomatoes
Once in the dear dead days of
the past, vegetables instead of co
eds flourished where Atherton
Hall rears its stately head. 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.

the InflrMary, and the Stock Pa

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.
