The Spartan ace, who won the national AAU mile while still in high school at Rochester, N. Y., handily won the Drake Relay mile two weeks ago in the third best time of the season, 4:15.

Dodds ran the world’s sec ond' fastest indoor mile that night in 4:06.4, ASHENFELTER • Third man in the race will be Pehn State’s Horace Ashenfelter, who has steadily improved all sea son and-holds,an'outside chance of beating both Karver and Dia netti over the fast mile course. Ashenfelter, called “Fearless Fosdick". by his teammates be cause he is unafraid to run against anyone, has. never posted a time shower than his preceding time in competition. Ashenfelter’s best timers a 4:20.8, which was the top performance in the . mile at the Penn Relays two weeks ago. . If weather conditions are favor able Saturday, track fans'may see one of the outstanding mile races to .be run this year.

The present record is 4:16.2, made by Offenhauser in 1929, and in siders are sure that the winner of the mile Saturday will have to take the four-quarters in about 4:12. • Karver has been inconsistent since he returned to the College last fall. A -month after running a 4:12;8 at Chicago, the Penn .State miler ran a 4:28. at the Penn Re lays.

PAGE THREE The Browse Last November, Houghton Mifflin brought out the first volume of a series of books de voted to the American scene. LOOK AT AMERICA was the title of the first. It is a large book with many fine photo graphs of America, divided into the different regions which go to make up our country. The series is edited by LOOK Maga zine. The second volume in the series, THE SOUTHWEST, came out about a month ago. The third volume, NEW ENG LAND, has just come in. This volume will probably appeal to you in State College more than any of the others in the series, since so many of you have probably been to parts of New England or who come from there. The book contains about 400 pages, 350 of which are photo graphs. There is a large map in the beginning dividing New England into regions which are more fully described later in the book. The 34-page introduc tion to the book by Mary Ellen Chase is alone worth the price of the book. Rudolf Serkin has just made the definitive recording of Bee thoven’s PATHETIQUE SON ATA. This is probably the most popular of all the sonatas Bee thoven wrote. No record library should be without thi q alubm. Come in to hear this album to day. It is recorded on Columbia Masterworks Records, priced at $4.20. JOURNEY TO THE END OF AN ERA by Melvin Hafll is a great narrative of personal ad venture. Melvin Hall has led an extraordinary life. He seems to have shared in more adven tures than Anthony Adverse. To read his book is to experi ence these adventures in all parts of the world, to read of a man who “hitched his wagon to a restless star.” There is still time to send Mother a book for MOTHER’S DAY. But come in today, select the book and we will do the rest. There is no charge for gift wrapping and mailing. We are only too glad to do this for you and your mother. The BROWSE can’t help but to answer Michael Blatz’s ques tion when he favors installing a bookstore in the proposed Student Union building. Asks Blatz, “How do they survive in this community year after year?” The answer is that many don’t survive and those who do, understand the function of a bookstore which is to serve the community—the entire commu nity and not just the College. If Mr. Blatz wants to get into this discussion further, we sug gest that he see us personally. ill! THE COLLEGE BOOK STORE and RECORD SHOP 129 W. Beaver Ave. OPEN EVENINGS
