Promiscuity Increases;
Virginity Decreases—Adams
Clifford R. - Adams, doctor of
philoEophy and director of the
Marriage Counseling • Service at
the College, predicts that "pre
marital chastity will be close to
the vanishing .point for females
born after 1940."
In an article in the current is- .
sue of Pageant Magazine, Dr.
Adams discusses "How Chaste
Are American Girls" He cites
examples of girls who have come
to' him for advice, as well as
findings from -noted psycholo
gists and sociologists country
wide. .
,
Lists Ten 'Promiscuous'. Reisons'
Dr. Adams lists ten reasons
why American girls are more
promiscuous than those of 35
years ago.
1. The emotions engendered
by two world wars and their
aftermaths have made people
feel insecure and brought dif
ferent standards to them.
2. Psychoanalysis with its
emphasis upon sex and its
stimul I to ignore' inhibitions
has male it easier for sex to
be , talked about and experi
mented with.
3. Wider dissemination o f
contraceptive information has
released many people from the
fear of pregnancy.
4. Marriages must be post
poned longer now, usually for
financial or academic reasons.
5. The automobile has made
it easier for young people to
get away from the scrutiny of
their elders.
6. The relaxation of family
chaperones, with no adequate
substitute, is a factor.
7. The public generally is
legs condemnatory of "ruined"
women.
• 8. The wartime shortage of
men in Arherican towns has
made many girls aggressive.
9. Many young people be
lieve sexual compatability es
sential to a happy marriage.
10. Steady reference is made
to sex in books, advertisements,
and the movies.
College Girl Less Promiscuous
Statistics show that college girls
are more conseryative and in
hibited than non-college girls,
with only about three-fifths as
much promiscuity in the former

group.
Dr. Adams estimates that 60
per cent of 'all women marrying
in 1946 will have had pre-marital
relationships, compared with fig
ures showing 12 per cent among
women marrying before 1912.
If the rise in intimacy contin
ues• at the same rate as for a,
generation, he reports, innocence
will have disappeared by 1960.
However, he declares, "Actually
I am confident that it will never
happen. The pendulum will swing
back toward greater chastity."
A major ~ s olution to 'the prg

be an undertaking by society to
make it possible for young-people
to marry by the time their nat
ural inclinations have completely
developed.

not! Rather it is the proof that
springtime and sunshine have

reached the Penn State campus.
Those rare days when the sun
manages to force its way between
the ever-present rain clouds find
the courts and roofs of various
dorms !filled with coeds in a mini
mum of attire intent on acquiring.
a pre-summer tan. Can. they help
it if, in the eager pursuit of a gold

of lobster red? SO—when your fa

From Manila
To Campus
By , SUZANNE McCAULEY
Not many Penn State students
spent their .first semester of, col
lege in an internment camp. Yet
Jane Doner, a Spanish major, is
now at the College, after having
received her freshman credits at
Santo Tomas Camp in Manila.
The story of how Jane arrived
at Santo Tomas and why she won
three campaign ribbons starts back
on the island of Cebu in the Phil
ippines where she was born twen
ty years ago. There she attended
an elementary school:for Ameri
cans. and later a 'convent, high
school supervised 'by Belgium Sis
ters.
On December 8, 1941, when war
was 'declared in the Philippines,
all schools were closed and Jane
worked for the Quartermaster de.
pot until the evacuation of Cebu
City was ordered when Japanese
bombings were intensified. With
other American families; Jane and
her mother and sister lived in the
hills of Cebu until the Japanese
invasion. The invading troops loot
ed a•nd destroyed the city; the
Americans surrendered.
Teachers Set Up School
• On May Day, 1942, the Japanese
interned all Americans--Irst in a
jail,' and then in various other
buildings. During that time for
mer American teachers set up a
sort of school within the camp.

FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1946
Jane memorized Latin verbs in
the shadow of the high walls—the
only shady spot in the jail.
Later, in December, 1942, the
American civilian prisoners in
Cebu were herded in the hold of a
Japanese transport and taken to,
Manila. The rive-day trip in the
hold of that ship was one Jane will
never forget. No one did any wash
ing during the whole trip since
the three cups of water allowed
each person per day were hardly
enough for drinking.
Life at Santo Tomas'
In Santo Tomas Camp in Ma
nila, 3700 Americans were intern
ed two more years. Mr. Doner,
captured on :Mindanao, was taken
there the last year. In Santo Tomas
each prisoner 'had certain duties
such as nursing, teaching, cooking,
etc. Jane taught first grade one
year and worked in the gardens
aside from attending classes. The
14 high school students who 'were
graduated in 1943 received diplo
mas. These were made by two
Spanish ,priests who possessed
some parchment which they dec
orated and printed by hand. After
she was graduated, Jane took
some college courses' including
English, languages, and sciences
taught by former teachers and
professors.
These credits were accepted by

look over the new books and

Trotsky's, STALIN. (Harper's,
$5:00.) It is truly a work of his_
torical importance. Parts of the
book will undoubtedly be on
reading lists for years to come.
We suggest you save yourself
a wait at the library and in
vest five dollars in a first edi
tion. As a first edition it should
be a good buy . . Helen Eus
tis has written a psychological
thriller with death on the cam
pus of a New England women's
college as the background: For
a genuinely saarey book •we
suggest you read THE HORI
ZONTAL MAN (Harper's, $2.-
50) . . . For you literature ma
jors we recommend you read
George Orwell's - DICKENS,
DALI AND OTHERS. (Reynal
& Hitchcock, $2.50.) It's made
up of a collection of essays on
Kipling, Yeats, Koestler, Wells
and otheri . . . For real book
bargains have you discovered
our ever-changing fifty cent
section? . For instance, right
now you • can buy Eliiabeth
Bowen's BOWEN'S COURT
which previously sold for $3.-

by Hugh Byas which'previous

cords this week we suggest you
hear the new Lilly Pons' al
