Friday, April 20, 1945 'The" War Touches Home The horrdrs of war at times seem to be un (believable in eyes of college students. Only when the conflict touches , home does one begin to won der about the suffering people in Greece, Poland, (France, and other ravaged countries. • • Here is a card which one of the coeds on. the campus received this week from her sister in Greece My dear sister, I wish these few lines to find• you in. the best of condition. I am worrying about your, health, Answer me .as quick as possible. Thank God that I am alive after four years of slavery which we suffer so much and now we are free again with the help of our Allies. Dear sister, I have taken a little girl. which I found in 1942 on the streets, an . orphan. Her folks- died from starvation t and now I made.her.mine. I want you to send us some clothes because we- have none. Won't you please help, people -like•-this : young tOrtoby-contributing-alllhat you possibly can to. the- United National .Clothing Collection •-tdday: Roosevelt= Will Live Om Franklin Delano Roosevelt—the- man whom all the world loved -and respected—is now dead. . It will be difficult to- forget a man who did Amuch for his country and asked so little in. ,ceturn; The , trust and - confidence that the :world -oe-stowed upon the late ?resident is something which few have experienced. Upon him the people placed their hope -for an everlasting peace in a Patisfied world. Yes, Franklin Delano Roosevelt is dead, but the courage, spirit, and ideals that led him to a place of destiny can never die. Millions of humble dolk around the world will not permit the torch of freedom that• he carried so profoundly to be extinguished. Like Abraham Lincoln, President Roosevelt gave his life fox his ;country as truly as if he had died on the battlefield. Both were soldiers in .onankind's struggle for liberty. Better Student Government -The first step towards a better, more effective Fenn State student government was taken• Tues day evening when Cabinet members .heard a com mittee's report urging the incorporation of Judi- dal Committee under All-College Cabinet The Cabinet, which represents men • and women on the campus, hopes to coordinate the activities of Judicial and Tribunal in such a way that the student .judicial bodies will be able to work more effectively. The new system of ap pointment will also be fairer in the eyes of "all" students. It is difficult to understand why anyone would oppose such a plan which would benefit be "entire" student body.

A Lean And Hungry Look Great events are often the inspiration for great works of art. In this repect, the Penn State Players' recent showing of "Brother Rat" has nobly served its purpose. It caused me to write a masterpiece which, I trust, Players will rush into production in order that everyone may appreciate its inherent dramatic values. Thez , know where to send the royalties.
