With the Editor
In the Midst of preparations for final e xams
wales a report on a survey made by the National
Advertising Service, representatives for most Col
-3.--ge newspapers, that asks, "Do you consider
',Nlc.)urself the typical college Student?"
In the mad rush to complete term reports, flip
Khrough the text to see what th e course is all
about and dash to the drug More for no-doze tab
..l,ltsk on e scarcely has time to attack the problem
academical] y.
But if you spend $1,162 a year at school, live 226
.:files from campus, plan to travel some day, play
-Innis and swim, own a camera, smoke 16 ciga
-tzttes a day, eat a hearty breakfast, own life in
i,urance and a typewriter, and eat Hershey bars
like crazy, then you can consider yourself a tYPI
'CaI Joe College Or Betty Coed—you have arrived.
*:.cording to the NAS survey.
biterviewts were eonidunted by the NAS in 51
obleges of "ervery size and kind" in 26 states, with
o.early 3,000 !students of both sexes from age 16 up
IJeing quizzed.
Among Uhe things discovered by the survey,
ws9hidah was• mad e "to *gather up-to-date inform
ion on every phase .of the U. S. college market,"
tiaras th e fact that the average college student
i,pends over $60 , 0 a year for retail buying while at
ilc.fhioel, or more than one-fourth more than the
U. S. average.
..1;t was dis covered that nearly all th e I:,000,000
or so,stuldents expecting to buy cars will try to get
Ford, Buick, or Chevrolet: about two-thirds
rmoke regularly; one-ithird of the colleg e men
tmok e pipes regularly and almost one-fourth more
own pipes but smoke them infrequently.
Concerning clothes, the survey reveals that the
:Average colleg e girl owns nine sweaters, nine pairs
of shoes, seven slips, six bras, two girdles, five
pairs of stockings and three nightgowns.
Joe College, a remarkably well...dressed young
tiulan, owns 13 sets of underwear, 2:0 pairs of socks,
Ocur pairs of Shoes, 13 shirts, 20 ties, three suits,
%yid sport coats, and four sweaters, among other
VAngs..
As for .favorite brands, it was learned that mor e
thlat any other single brand in each item, men pre
fer Interwloven socks, Florsheim shoes, Arrow
hirts and ties, Hart Schaffner and Marx suits,
Yfichock sulspenders and belts, Stetson hats, and
;rVilacGregor sweaters. 'However, in each case the
9targest percentage either didn% know what brands
qilley used or used other less pcpular ones.
While most women seemed equally unconcerned
withh brands, preferences were expressed for Maid
enfOrm bras, Jantzen girdles, Barbizon slips, and
I. Miller shoes. Opinions on raincoats, nightgowns
end sweaters were , almost equally divided.
Of the 1,500,000 college men ,who shave and oth
ozvriie groom themselves, most preferred Gillette
razors and blades, Palmolive shave cream, Mennen
lotion and powder, Wild. Root hair tonic, Fitch
shampoo, Colgate tooth paste and Mum deodorant.
IClosmetics preferred by women includ e Revlon
nett polish and lipstick, Coty face powder, Pond's
!face cream, Arvid deodorant, Colgate toothpaste
and Halo shampoo.
!Most, students expressed interest in food. Pre
tlyerred soft drink—you guessed it—Coca Cola.
Most popular Cigarettes are CJhesteitields, with
/0 per cent of smokers preferring that brand;
aaulcley Strike runs a Mir second with Z 9 per cent
?nld. Camels, Phillip Morris and Old Gold trail well
ft , dhind. Pipe-srdokers prefer Briggs and Sir Wal-
Iter Raleigh tobaccos and Kaywoodie pipes.

It's Legal
Ws legal. There are thousands and millions of
prohibiting laws on th e statute books of cities,
counties, slates, and the nation; but not one ap
plies directly to this * act.
In melodrama at the Nattany, the villain "Mang"
her on the floor and let 'er lay. Legally you can
"Illang'"er and let 'er lay and you can do more—
you can step on 'er and grind 'er brains out under
your• heel. And, you do. •
I aim talking about your treatment of Senorita
Cigarette—so raild,' so firm; so • round, •so fully
packed, so easy on the draw, so snugly fitted into
her dainty white dress. I am talking about the
way you have oC `.`hanging" 'e r down in the cor
ridor, on the front Step or on the rug in the home
of a duchess. I am talking about the way you hav e
of (stepping on 'er; Woking 'er, and leaving 'er with
her Whit e dress torn and her insides scattered
about.
It's legal, but, oh, the shame of it! How can you
be so cruel and so rude? How can you treat this
dainty lady so shabbily and then be able to sleep
nights? I don't know how or why, but I know that
you can and do. •
. _
It's legal, bolt it is not nice. It's the way you do
it hut it isn't the way to be a perfect little gent.
Iltks done by many bat that doesn't make the act
less terrible.
Why don't you:turn ove r a new leaf, Why don't
you hit the sawdust trail, Why don't you vo•w to
reform, wihy don't you get some white in• your
soul, wihy don't you sign a pledge, why don't you
read a good book, why donq you have a confer.
once With Your pastor, why don't you listen to th e
voice cif donscien'ce?
Why don't you say to yourself, "From this thin_
ute I shall be a bette r man," and then from this
minute on treat the little lady in the white dress
with all the kindness, respect, and consideration
she deserves. Instead of Ranging 'er, carry 'er
daintily between thumb and.finger to an ash tray
or a sandbox and put her down gently. If you
must brain 'er to extingulidh the iiir e of her per
sonality, do it with restraint and give 'er a decent
burial. Do this and you Will not only be a happier
spirlitulal creature but you Will also help to keep
our houSe clean and respectable.

Bowling
Alt the State Cdliege Bowling Center Wednesday
night, only one irderfriaternity league match was
played. Beta Theta Pi beat Delta UlpSilon. Four
other fraternities showed "Pp, and won forfeit vic
tories. That makes a total of six teams all told.
Sixteen fraternities are entered in the league.
_Every Wednesday night since the tournament
began, Mr. Trusnan Cassel, Manager of the Center,
has been reserving the alleys for the• fraternities.
The Student t!cdy knows this, and on Wednesday
nights they stay away. lit six out of sixteen teams
put•in an appearance, obViouSly, Mr. Cassel is not
making any money.
Added to this, there is the question of pin.loys.
Pin-boys are hard to get. They become e ven hard
er to get when they find themselves not getting
paid. If there aren't any games, they can't pick up
pins. If they don't pick up pins, then they don't
get paid. It's as simple as that.
Mr. Cassel pointed out that the consistently de
feated teams are the ones who appear to have lost
interest. That can't b e helped. Interest is some
thing that doesn't reanain Stationary. However, it
seems that in entering this kind of tournament, all
the fraternities, that did so, assumed an obligation.
They agreed to occupy the alleys reserved for
them.
Mr. Cassel is a business man, and as such he
can't continu e to alfow howaing tournaments to be
run, if they are run under the present circum
stances. —David J.. Adelman
Letters
By Our Poet Laureate
Oh yes, the Owls from Temple—
They were a hefty crew—
They tried to claw the Lion
And on Penn State Campus too
Now the Lion was the -underdog—
So the "experts" said—
But when the game was over•—
Were those guys' faces red!
Oh yes, the Owls of Temple—
They were a 'likely crew—
But at the final whistle
All they could say was "Who-o-?"
Now gentlemen take warning—
And this is not a crack—
A Lion always fights the best
When he is on his back.
