’Barretts' Show Is Staged
Despite Circulating Rumors
Despite rumors circulating
around campus that “Th e Barretts
of Wimpole Street 1 was to be
cancelled by College officials, the
show did go qn last night and will
continue tonight and tomorrow,
according to Arthur C. Cloetingh,
director of the Penn State
Players.
No one knows where the rum
cos of objections to the suggestive
parts of the play originated. Ac
cording to reports, the dramatics
office was swamped with disap
provals from clergymen, letters
from parents and notices from
thg Dean of Women’s office.
“No, we have not received any
word that 'The Barretts’ was op
posed by anyone,” Kelly Yeaton,
director of the show said. “It
might be good publicity, though,
if there were objections.”
“Why no! Of course there has
not been any objection from this
office,” Pearl O. Weston, dean of
women said. “The only thing
that I ever said about the show is
that I wanted tickets.”

World Discovers Penn State
Through Public Information
Ever wonder how those little
items of Penn State news get'into
the metropolitan and home-town
papers? It’s really no accident
but, rather, the results of the ef
forts of the Department of Public
Information, headed, since 1943,
by Louis H. Bell.
Since the department was es
tablished in 1914, the College’s
enrollment has grown from 2,000
to 10,000. The department has
matched this growth arid has ex
panded from a one-room office to
a battery of offices centering
arourid 313 Old Main.
Included in the 200 publications
the department prepares and
edits each year, are the weekly
Faculty Bulletin, and the timely
Sports Letters. News is also sent
to the Centre Daily Times, the
Daily Collegian, and station
WMAJ. Ah average of two stories
a day are sent to the Associated
Press in Harrisburg.
In addition to qualifying news
for dissemination over the entire
country, two weekly News Let
ters are sent to daily papers iri
Pennsylvania. They cover sports,
general interest, publicity and hu
man interest stories.
With the war’s end, campus
queens again became publicity
features. “Papers like to print
material of this type. If we send
news which they like to print,
they will become partial to fu
ture Penri State news," is the way
Mr. Ball puts it.
