Campus Rural Groups Foresee
Penn State Lead
• “iHow cam we discover and .fos
ter the best ways of achieving
rural progress, economically, so
cially, and spiritually?” “How
can I contribute the most to my
community?” 'These andl many
more equally baffling questions
were asked by students attending
a discussion of problems facing
the rural youth of today, which
was held in 401 Old! Main on Feb
ruary 3.
•. .Eugene Fulmer, first vice pres
ident of the (Pennsylvania Rural
Youth Association and editor of
the Rural Youth of the United
States of America, presided! at the
meeting attended by campus rep
resentatives of the Future Farmers
of America, Ag Student Council,
4-H Club, and Block and Bridle
Club. The 'FFA is already asso
ciated with the RYA, and the
Rural Youth of the United States
of America.
COOPERATION AS AIM
These two associations of rural
youth groups have been formed
to coordinate the efforts of all in
solving problems that face each
of them. As in urban areas, there
is constant conflict between old
ideas and progress. The RYA is
attempting to bring progress to
the rural areas, while keeping
intact those old ideas of culture
and life which have been tried
and found good for a healthy and
. contented farm populace.
• In this program, Penn State has
the opportunity to take a leading
role in attaining the desired ob-.
jjectives, Fulmer stated. .He ex
plained the action of the last RYA
conference, whereby each county
in Pennsylvania was limited to
one officer in the organization.
‘ However, since Penn State does

ng Movement
not truly represent Centre Coun
ty, the College was given a status
equal to that of a county and en
titled to hold one office. The pres
idency, a vice presidency, and the
editorship are held by Penn State
graduates, while Fulmer is first
vice president.
PENN STATE A CENTER
Active participation by Penn
State in the rural youth move
ment will do much in insuring its
success, Fulmer emphasized. Penn
State, by its central location and
concentration of agriculture stu
dents, can train leaders for the
movement, can help in coordin
ating the work of all rural youth
groups in the state, and can act
as a liaison officer in setting up
publicity agents in each) county,
releasing activity news, and set
ting forth the aims of the move
ment through newspaper, maga
zine, and 1 radio.
