PAGE TWO Arthory .Authorisation of a new armory before other im portant buildings has accused storms of protest among som e practical students. ; Bu’t perhaps the reasons behind this decision are not fully known. Auecrding to he r charter as a land grant coll ege Penn State m-us'l give instructions in military science and tactics. An aiimory constructed for the need's ot an enrollment of ohly 150(1 students, will be out-grown when the ROTC unit Itself is twice that large. This will be tru e in a few years when the lower classmen will be mostly nrin-vet erah'3. Nor can we hope to “borrow” spate in oth er buildings, which are so overcrowded .themsel ves. ! ■ ■Future generations cf underclassmen will reap the benefits from today’s plait's. Instead of bCdrig forced to tak e a branch of training he dislikes, the new frobh will have a choice betewegri navy, infantry, engineers, signal corps, and ,air corps training. Without a new arm'Cry, it is difficult, to imagine any semblance of efficient military train ing. ;A new anmoiy would pave the way for the ev entual removal of the present Structure. Traditi’oh lovers may .pto'test, but it certainly does not Kaf mcnize with the newer buildings on camptis, and will become even mere out of place as it becomes surrounded with newer buildings. . Finally, there is no reason to suppose that this armory will displace any of the projects wo Wave been hoping for. College officials like Mr - . George W. Ebert superintendent of Grounds and Bund, inga, could report, if permitted', that plans have been, and are being made for other construction, A campus building program cannot take place .over night, but requires mlany months of intense study, hard work, anid exacting study.

'Such words as these were spoken by T. E. Law reixc after the erid of World War I. Today, over a quarter of a century later, that line seems mote •potent, more true than ever. Veterans of this past war are now beginning to sadly understand exactly what T. E. Lawrence meant. The “old nien” are new sitting at the peace tables. Ther e ar « ntme of ,us—none Of the young men there beside them. We. vfery good : enough, strong enough, wise enough to fight the War—but alas, to mhke the peace,'to reshape a new, world, we are but -youth and as Lawrence also iably weak against age.” - The' United.*Nations meet add aicuhd the table--sits’pot, a representa tive of the men that f-ought this.'war. We do riot chum that the aid of youth would guarantee tli e making of permanent peace.. We know that we are lium'ah arid. War-only' pi'oVes how fallible huirrJari .beingsare. We db think though that no mlatter what. c.6untry.,of the world they are fron>—the masses'hf men who during (he wlar suffered separation froth their -families,- de privation, and physical.injuries would feel that there ar e more important things in life than fighting over oil interests -and air rights, etc. To oitr children yet. unborn (if they ever will be), we now address thes e words: “Blame -not us, for when we had achieved, arid the new world dawned, the old men came out -again; and took from us our vi'efery and remad e it in the likeness of the former world they knew.” Lewis L. Ja’ffe Letters X-Gf Club Protests TO THE EOITOiR: With reference to the letters th'at 'have appeared in the Letters column of the £lad!y Colegilan, the Executive Board' of th e X pl oil lb points 'out the following fea&ons iof the lack cf good theater entertainment in State Coll ege. First, however, the X-GI Club wishes to ad'd its protest to those already printed in Collegian and Froth. The Gluto dan see hb reason, why the local theaters dannct show current; “A”-type 'movies. We also resent, as do 'the students as a whole, the insult to our appreciation off good 'acting and good 'production, in a purely mercemary sense, the Club can un derstand the reasons of the lodal theater managers for daring to show such poor entertainment. Af ter al'l, why should they spend money to secure Grade A movies (when such movies are first cir culated) iif they Can save rental 'fees and show second rate (Jungle Princess) or obsolete (I Want ed Wings and The Fiainsirian) .pictures and still play to a full house each, and every Friday and Saturday nights? In this manner the money extracted front an entertainment starved student body nets, more profit. If the. students will pay fifty-five cents to see an cut of date movie, why not show it? , Another reason is the lack of competition. The three local theaters have a complete fnonoply on movies. With n o competition they are allowed to show obsolete films and in that way can operate their theaters at a bare minimum of cost. Why spend money fo r current movies when they can wait six iweekis to five years before showing it with no fear of competition? They dan cut expen ses to- negligible proportions. Consider th 6 profit they make. And what do they. . care about the students? We hav e no other place to. go. We have to patronize their theaters or sit. home over the weekends.- This is what is known, as cut throat business. The X-G-I Club hereby pledges itself to spare no effort to alleviate this condition. The Clulb hopes th e college administration- will carefully investi gate this situation and offer concrete suggestions and decisive faction to relieve the present state, of affairs. _ The Executive Board, X-GI. Club Periri State vs. Nevada? TO TiH'E EDITOR: Now that Pehn State and the University of Nevada have both decided to stay north off the Mason-'Dixon line, I. have, another brain storm with which to plague you. If it is at •all possible I should veiiy niuich like to se e the two aforementioned teams play each other at the conclusion of their respective schedules. Since -both Nevada and State were already planning long trips and'- students at the respec tive schools wer e contemplating the same, why net have the two school's play at a mid-point, say Chicago. I think an interseotiomal -game off. this sort, with proceeds to go to Negro charity, would pack even .Soldier’s Field. 'Not only would it be a fine gesture by Nevada and State, not only would .it he a rebuke to the race-prejudiced southern schools, 'but it would' toe fo r three good causes: Penn State’s, Nevada’s, and certainly not least, that of the Negro. Iff you want backing and publicity you would certainly have it, and I’m certain there are • many large stadiums which would be cnl-y too glad to stage this contest. 'We can’t get Negroes haircuts in this town so let's go ou'ti to Chicago and do something for them. Whlat say, Dean Schott; Coach Higgins,.
