PAGE 'I WO Daily Collegian With a gradual return to normalcy, it is only natural that the Collegian should make certain changes itself. For that reason. the Collegian in the Fall will resume daily publication. The 1946-47 budget, as approved by the president, calls for publication four days weekly. While this is not a complete re turn to pre-war publication, which was five issu es weekly, it does show an effort on the part of Collegian to keep pate: with the proposed expan sion of the College and the need that will arise for more thorough communication between the administration and students and between groups of sttideritS. The war, with its deep inroads in student en rollment, made it virtually impOstible to continue daily publication; it also reduced the enrollment to a point where there was no real need to dis seminate the news daily. There are now more than 5.000 students on the campus. In the Fall there will be more than 6,000. 'Three new dormitories are to be constructed, which will accomodcte 2,000 students and it is en- tirely pos.sible that before too many years have gone by the enrollment will be 10,000 or better. It is a far cry from the first group that atten ded the College hack in 1859. At that time there were sixty-nine students who ate, slept and stu died° in the original Old Main. In such a limited area of operation it was possible for Prexy Pugh •(.o make his announcements to the entire group and be sure that they heard. So it is with pleasure that the Collegian annotm cei.i its publication changes. It is in keeping with Collegian's policy "For a Better Penn State," and everY effort is being made to insuxe these. im provements in communications. While many of the members of the Collegian .staff are none too familiar with•the workings of ; .a daily, they will be aided by several of the men who served' on the staff before entering the arm ed service and the expected transition should not 3ast long. . Resumption of daily publication also calls for a return to bigger business operations and the ne cessity of Collegian's assuming greater responsibil- (Nevertheless, Collegian is, and will, continue to be a publicatio.i for students.

Dark and Bitter Look Friend editor and I are on good terms again this week, after I bout her another rattle, so she's letting me give you the lowdown true story on another campus problem. It is a difficult and touchy subject, so I will begin with a quotation, thus avoiding all responsi bility. "In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of just zibout. the same damn thing he's had on his mind all year." Thus wrote the poet Calabash Twunkweisch in his little hut on the banks of • the Volga in the early Bart of the year 1215. 'lt was a harsh and joyless life that Calabash led, for he was a student. He sat at the feet of Os wald, the Occult and Omnipbtent, and , drank in the learning of the East—along with the perfume of dear old 'Ozzie's unwashed feet Rift the beardless hard was happy. He had not yet come in contact with 'the dreaded' thing called "she." So he wrote his famous verse, never realizing What lives he would wreck an the distant future. Calabash was only rpuitting into &Ode words the yearnings and longings .that assailed his Medie val heart ii.vihen the sprites of SrPring danced in the bleak deso-, lation of the Carpathians. But his deathless sonnet is still going strong in the vapid vale of Nit! tany. Mas hap you have noted the vastly increased number of sweat ers, polo shirts, and diaphanous blouses vaguely concealing the more attractive sections of the local glamour girls around cam pus. If you have noticed them; stop at once if you value your peace of mind. You see, it's all a.mad plot en the part of certain merrlibers of facuilty who are thying to capitalize on Calabash's quatrain. This trealchery is fostered by a nameless number of 'Soc. pro:'s who wish to see their theories in Penn Statements The .Delta Gammas have taken in their anchor.

Punch Lines By GEORGE SAMPLE It seems that I have been- taken to task,- by a fellow columnist, for some slighting remarks made about - that group of erudite young men who Meet in the hallowed holes ,of , Carnegie Hall to cultivate and reap the corn that .is Froth. The columnist in question, The Bullosopher, is of the 'opinion that a comparison between Froth and the New Yorker is wholly unjust. With this I agree as far as content Of the magazines is con cerned. However I tried to point out that Froth w:11 socn be a defunct magazine if they persist in charging 25 cents for - their product. Both -Sides • Being very democratic minded, I feel it is ne cessary that both sides of the story be told.' The Bullosapheil believes that the comparison was bad because Froth is a student publication published by amateurs. In support of his argument he says that the Engineer` and Portfolio are publications of comparable levels.' With this I still agree, all contents of the above magazines are contributed' by embryo • writers: They are:•amateurs. Please bear in mind they are amateurs: My error then, if an error it is, is that of criticizing a group of ama teurs: •In . order to. get on with the story it is necessary to itfer.to the.

However the following week, Ferdinand had this to say about the concert. "In reference to Hum's Bums, he felt that the entire group had worked hard but despite loyalty and school spirit the concert was done by amateurs." Judging from this statement, Ferdinand seems to have a particu lar dislike for amateur musicians: In concluding my story it is necessary to include two morals, for which I know Ferdinand has a pat- ticu:ar 'aversion Moral I: Coluninists who live in glass hours should not throw stones: ' Slbral II: ArnateUrs are amateurs.whelber be amateur musicians 05r arriateur writers.'
