Prof Night at Schwab
Tonight the profs doff their academic gowns and don
the garb of entertainers for the Faculty Talent Show under
the auspices of the World Student Service Fund drive.
The merits of WSSF are well-known and cannot be dis
puted. It's also a fact that the current drive has not reaped
the dividends that were expected.
Obviously, there is much talent among the faculty that
has rarely been tapped for a student audience. It's the op
portunity to tie in an enjoyable evening with support for a
worthy cause.
Credit should go to the seven school. councils for the
unique idea and to the professors who so generously offered
their talent.
Here's the chance to laugh and applaud that favorite
prof—at the Faculty Talent Show. —BIF
Editor's Malice
Lotter from China
TO THE EDITOR: Mr. William
B. Rced has brought to my atten
tion the fact that the class of 1948
is considering its gift. I under
stand that one of the possibilities
is a grant to the Lingnan Univer
sity Library. I do not know the
other gifts which the Class may
be considering so I am unable t o
weigh the relative merits of the
various proposals. I do know the
need which the students at Ling
nan face in this postwar era.
There are so many demands on
the University Administration
that it is most difficult to take
care of any of them adequately.
Equipment must be replaced and
brought up to date; buildings re
paired and record enrollment
taken care of. The Library during
the war was neglected, abused
and scattered. This is especially
unfortunate in China where it is
impossible to walk across the
street from the campus and pur
chase texts for the various cour
ses at Keelers, Metzger's or The
Athletic Store. I think it is espe
cially true in the field of Agricul
ture. For some reason, probably
their wider demand, more of the
Arts and Science books have, in
the past, been printed in China
than has been true for Agricul
ture. I am teaching a course in
Plant Propagation. At one time
according to the records there
were five copies of a book pub
lished about 1900. But not a sin
gle copy is now available . . My
own copies for this and the course
in Plant Breeding do not go very
far. I am sure this is true in near
-I.Y every course.
I took the liberty Of speaking
to Dr. Henry S. Frank, Provost of
the University, and his immedi
ate reaction was that such a gift
would be most welcome and that
the Class of 1948 might want to
further specify that the gift be
gr.ade to the Agricultural Library,
for:
1. The Agricultural Library is
in special need at this time. It is
Dean Lee's hope to make the Col
lege of Agriculture a research
center worthy of the needs of
China's predominantly agricul-
Lural population. The first requis
ite to good research is an ade
quate library.
2. A grant t o the Agricultural
Library would be in keeping with
Penn State's long interest in
Lingnan.
3. Such a gift would relieve
the University of heavy obliga
tions and make it possible for
them to concentrate their efforts
on the Arts and Science Librar
ies.
4. Must important to you, I
think, is that the Class gift would
then stand out and be a very ob
vious contribution.
Such a library would be housed
in the Agricultural building and
~ s uitable plaque could be placed
in the reading room stating the

facts concerning the oft In ad
dition, of course, each book
should bear an appropriate Book
Plate.
Visitors a nd students at the Col
lege in the future would have
very concrete e vidence of the fine
spirit of cooperation which exists
between Lingnan and Penn state.
Those of us who are here believe
that Lingnan will not only be
come a great Chinese University
but that it will be known among
the outstanding Universities of
the world.
I feel moved to commend the
Class of 1948 for its Global out
look in considering this gift. So
far as I know this is the first time
a Penn State Class has consid
ered a gift with such far reach
ing possibilities. Everyone talks
about the necessity for world un
derstanding and unity. This is
ccrtainly a very concrete action
which might be, taken in this
direction.
