'lke Gilbert Leads County Over Top In War Loans One oi' the most valuable men to the United States Treasury De partment during the war years was Harold !R. “Ike” Gilbert, assistant to the ; graduate manager of athletics, and the State College! War Fi nance Committee Chairman. IMr. Gilbert was selected for this job early in 1942. At that time every government agency was being organized to expedite the war ef fort and this assignment appeal- | ed to him. “There was everything pleasant about the job,” he added, i “I got to know many people, throughout the district and coun ty and found out the meaning of real cooperation.” “We didn’t depend on the stu dents at the College to take a real active part in the drives because they are not self-supporting. But, Mr. Gilbert continued, “they were a big help in furthering sales through their organizations. Funds of various student activities, fra-! ternities, sororities, clubs and honorary groups, were . eagerly, put in bonds. Trust funds of class es, held by the Alumni Associa tion, were also invested. Numer ous dances and social affairs also stimulated the sale of war stamps. Students also helped to man bond and stamp booths erected on cam pus and in the borough. | Armed Units Useful “V-12 and AiSTP units were es perially helpful during their stay. The V-12 unit was awarded the Treasury Department flag during the 6th bond drive for then' 99.1 per cent participation,” Mr. Gil bert added. “Special attractions didn’t go well. Warner Brothers donated pictures but the people weren’t interested in buying certain de nominations just to get choice seats, Therefore, tickets had to be given to everyone who purchased a war. bond.” “Hitler’s automobile, the SPAtR’s band, personal appearances of Offers Prizes Subscriptions to the drivei will be placed at Student Union, dormitories, town houses, and various res taurants and business estab lishments in town. These, contain ers were donated by McLanahan’s drug store and the Corner Room. Group solicitations will be made in fraternity and sorority houses. Weekly totals of the money col lected will be nublished in the Tuesday editions of Collegian. As added incentive to the stu dent body, any person who col lects a total of $lO for the “March of Dimes” will be award ed a year’s free mail subscription to the Collegian. Group contribu tions will not be considered for the award. The national ‘March of Dimes” campaign wa s started shortly af ter the late Franklin D. Roose velt was elected President of the United States. Stricken with in fantile paralysis himself, the for mer president realized the impor tance of controlling and curing -this scourge Arßerica’- youth.' . The national foundation for poliomyelitis is making rapid strides .in its research program. A; great deal-of work was done in this field during the war. But to day, more than ever, money in the form of contributions is needed to carry on this program. war veterans did help. One of the best things the community did,” Mr. Gilbert said, “was to erect a thermometer for each drive.” This bought about reaction in the pride of the- local citizens. Pic tures of the display were sent to the Treasury Department during each campaign. An outstanding job in the pub lic school- system aided every drive. The children displayed a youthful enthusiasm and respon ded quickly to the rewards offer ed not only on a percentage basis, but by amounts subscribed. Abra ham Lincoln Hite, local citizen who poses as “Honest Abe,” sti mulated sales with his appearance in his car on which was painted, “Abe, the Stamp Man.” Town Tops ■ Quotas .. State College not only met its quotas every time, but also went over the top. Only in the sth drive did the town fail to meet (Continued on pane four ) Industrial Relations . . . debate, sponsored by the Community Forum, with Clinton Golden of the United Steel Work ers of America and W.
