the world. Dr. Bernreuter cited a
case - where a thoroughly malad
justed stud en t in agriculture
switched to engineering and fine
arts and .became a new person,
his inadequacies vanishing al
most overnight.
Aptitude Tests
A generally familiar phase of
the clinic's work is the series of
aptitude tests administered to in
coming freshmen. Predictions of
probable success or failure in
various fields are made on the
basis of these tests and sent to
students and to the deans of
their schools. This advisory serv
ice is furnished free of charge.
Vocational guidance is offered
not only to students but to any
individual seeking it.
Staff Expansion
Since its organization in 1931,
the clinic has expanded to a staff
of five faculty members and 35
graduate students. It has helped
over 12,000 individuals acquire a
new perspective on their trou
bles in a period of 17 years.
Faculty members associated
with the clinic are Dr. Clifford R.
Adams, Dr. George F. Castors,
)r. Martha 0. Fry, Dr. Bruce V.
Moore, Dr. William U. Snyder,
Se. Lott and I*. Beroreuter.
Mighty Nittany Lion
KO'd by Greater
Bruin Force
There was a spiiit of mourning
on campus yesterday. Thb tradi
tional lion,, mnbol of Nittany's
mighty power, had tasted defeat
at the hands of the Great White
Bear.
The two rival; have been roar
log .and, growling at each other
for weeks and- decided to settle
the ',Asstle with a scrimmage res
terday morning at 11:50 o'clock.
A crowd ,of students gathered
as the two 'exchanged blows. Al
though the lion • succeeded in
knocuing the bear's head off, al
most' disclosing the latter's iden
tity, •he was lat •
er forced to bow
to the Great White Bear. °lice,
in his excitement, the Lion tried
to climb ,a tree.
The honor of the Lion has been
challenged, but officials attribute
his defeat to the fact that he was
out of condition. This has been
his first' appearance on campus
since fall.
