FRIDAY, MAY 24, 1946 The Little Man Meet Jim Framo, Froth Writer By LOIS MARKS The only other person we know of on campus who sticks out his neck enough to write personality *etches is Jim Evamo. Jim has a profile of Professor Edward Abramson in , this month's Froth, and we were rather anxious to know of his writing technique. "Always rewrite" is Jim's motto for-getting good copy. We asked him how he takes an in terview, and .he said•that he just lets a •man talk about himself. So we just, let .Jim talk about him self. He ,told'uS that he is going to get married in .September, fin-. ish school next June, and prob ably take his master's at Penn while Mary finishes her last year there. Mary D'Adamo, the future Mre. 'Jim; is . just about the most important factor in his life. "It's a funny. thing," Jim told us,, "but Ma% and. I are. neigh bors.' She , just five,.bloclis away ) from• Me at 'home in South Philly. And I never even -knew who she was until I came to State. In faat, I met 'here' in a Soc class last winter." Jim Has Philosophy .Jim's pbiloSophy of life is very simple: He clainiis that the two most important decisions 'a man can make are choosing the right girl and:finding the right job. Jim .has the right girl, beyond a doubt, but he is still in 'a quandry as to what kind of a job he wants. "I'm a psYdh major •now," he said, "I'd like to go into some kind' of -industrial psychology, maybe even personnel work. If I had the' guts to stick out med ical school, I might take, a stab at psychiatry. "I like people, all sorts of people: I like to watch ho* they tick., I like to get to know them all, all extremes. 'think that's why I picked on psychology. I was in journalism beftire .the war, , . but you don't make enough money in newspa 7 per work.

Likes Writing • Writing for Froth is a lot of fun, Jim claims. He gets to know a lot of • important people on campus (his next Profile will be on Prexy) arid works with a good .gang of • guys. A typical Froth man, he has a subtle sense of humor and is mad about Le Jazz Hotte---his favorite 'sharp band is Duke Ellington. And he subscribes heartily to the Froth principle of "A Kick A Day." By. the way, Jim isn't adverse to telling' about his life in the army. He . got out of 18 •months on the front with a.full skin, and sort of likes to brag about how lucky he, is. BLit the only "War story." Jim told us was about a football game. It seems that 'he and a' great many . ex-Staters. were_ at.,'train 'rig' camp dOwn outh. State was scheduled to. play football in nearby' town, and Jim spoke •to the commanding officer, getting, permission for all his hoyS to see the game. • The group marched Osborne Assumes 'Duties In College Department Milton S..

Jim Coogan and Ridge Riley were in the press box, and were amazed to hear "Hail to the Lion" coming from the throats of so many seemingly strange sol diers. Jim clOms that'. even his grandchildren will have to listen to this story. Keeps. Busy Ah Alpha Phi Delt,, Jim doesn't limit his activities to the cam pus humor mag. •He's on the Fen cing team, which will be reacti vated this fall. He likes fencing because it is chess with action: your wit and muscles pitted against your opponent's, and the man with the best coordination comes out the winner. He is a member of the AVC and Common Sense, and believes that every veteran should belong to these organizations. "The trouible with most of the veterans on this campus is that they gripe a lot and , don't do any thing," Jim said. "Nobody's go ing to do our work for us. We can't sit around and let some other guys pass the legislation that concerns -our *hole exist ence and expect it to be right. We did fight this war for some thing, arid it's up to us to keep it." Has the campus changed much since Jim left it in 1943?'His own words express it best: "`The campus hasn't changed, but we have. A' war makes any one more mature. This place was just as Joe College and as friv olous when I was a frosh; maybe even more so. We'll have to make State grow tip - to us; we're the ones who are different.'" FFA Honors Penna.

Brunner, head of the agricultural education depart ment, has been notified that the .F.Vinsylvan.ia F'FIA Band, 'of which he is in charge, - has been, desig nated Official Band for the annual national convention of Future Fainters of •America , which will be held in Kansas City in October. • A similiar honor was 'bestowed upon the band in 1939.

Tobacco THE COLLEGIAN Library Displays Lead Soldiery Now on display in the cases of the Main Library is an exhibit of lead soldiers representing the ma jor part of a hobby collection owned by Dr. Kent Forster of the history department. The collection consists of ac curate reproductions of a variety "„f figures ranging from Roman legionnaires to current day sol diery. It also includes a shelf de voted to the American Revolu tionary period where a number of finely made and unique pieces are displayed. The latter are re productions of the Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia "Gl's" of 1775-1783, done by the exhibitor, as well as British, Hessian and French regiments of the same time. The figures are lead castings, some of solid construction, oth ers hollow. With few exceptions they were made in Europe, some by the old and now destroyed George Heyde Geselltschaftkom panie of Dresden fame.
