PAGE • TWO lEm ply Seals .An impressive ceremony before a compara tively slim crowd marked the first post-war con vocation yesterday morning in Recreation Hall. Curiosity should have prompted a great deal )lore people to witness the affair than were pres ent. The last convocation was held in 1943, and as feu• as some war-time students are concerned, it was the first and only time they had an opportun ity to hear President Hetzel speak. As it was, about ',500 students out of a possible 7000 or more took advantage of the opportunity, while faculty only half filled the section reserved for them, having in attendance 365 from a staff that numbers close to 900. The only group that can claim a perfect at tendance record is the cleans. Looking very state ly in their academic attire, they seemed to ha've filled the undergraduate body with a new kind of humbleness never before experienced.... that is. unless yOu've ever attended a previous convoca tion. /There is no moral to the story except that a lot of interested* townspeople could have filled the p.eats saved for that group of educators and stu dents who thought they had something more important to do for the hour.

The. commo n rule among many people of having a roll or a cup of coffe e for their breakfast very frequently contributes to a dull mind and a prysical condition of under nourishment. In order to be mentally alert, physically well, one should arise in sufficient tim e to eat at leaSt fruit, some proteins such as egg or meat, milk, cereal and of course the even present coffee.

THE DAILY'COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, FE4NNSYLVANIA Letters•to the . . . . Ice Box Cool Off Here Book Exchange TO THE EDITOR—In times when sky-rocket- ing price s are everyday occurrence, it is seldom possible to point to a commodity and say, "Il you purchase this product here, you can save money•" But such is the case when I refer to the Student Book Exchange, a non-profit student organization sponsored jointly by All-College Cabinet and . the Common Sense Club. The object is to .enable stu dents to buy and sell their used texts at a price fair to both parties. Last year was the first time since pre-war days that the exchange was in operation, and mainly becaus e a fellow named •Charles Hill, president Of the freshman class, saw the need and did his job well. The e ffort involved in establishing the Book Exchange was of large proportions, but bal ances with the service it renders to the College and its students. Hill is no longer around to plug his pet project; he was killed in an automobile accident outside of Harrisburg on June 23 of thi s year on his way hom e from Spring Semester classes. The product of many day s and hours of planning on his part is now available to students who like to make things easier for themselves.. Pity the GraOs :Seems funny to this person that grads .(who are ex Gl's) must "dig" into their own pockets to cov er the cost of AA books. Undergraduates (who are ex-Gl's) are covered by the G.l. bill on this mat ter. Then, wherein does the trouble lie? The gov ernment will willingly pay up to $5OO per student (graduate o r not). , They merely want th e College to authorize what they finance: Would it be' too much for the College to authorize AA books to all students regardless s:d• status—as long as they . are entitled to the G.I. benefits. It certainly wouldn't be to its disadvantage although it might take a little paper work. Politics While it is true that Clique nominating meeting will not be held until Sunday, with final nomina tions coming October 13. it might be well to re mind all party members that already students are "working" on possible slates. Since most people are human, it behooves each and every student to think about the men and women he'd like running class affairs. Don't wait until Sunday when Clique nominations are held to find that you may be pressured into running someone not suited for the job because you haven't a few good suggestions to make from the floor.
