County Suffers Under Record Temperatures Centre Countians sweltered under record temperatures over the weekend and there wag little relife, if any, in sight. The College Weather Station reported that Monday’s high of 95 topped the year’s previous record of 92 on May 5. And it was the hottest since July, 1941, when the mercury hit 97. Unofficially, Countians report ed their thermometers showing anywhere from 99 to well over 100 degrees with readings vary ing according to their places in the sun. In July, 1936, the College thermometer registered 102 de grees. Here are the hourly tempera tures as recorded at the College today: 7 a.m.—75 11 a.m.—BB 8 a.m.—7B Noon 90 9 a.m.—Bl 1 p.m.—92 10 a.m 86 Highest recorded at the College station Saturday was 87. It climb ed to 94 on Sunday, one degree short of yesterday’s mark. Weathermen predicted an over -90 reading yesterday and today’s forecast of continued warm and scattered showers indicated little relief. Partly cloudly was the best hope in view. The terrific heat was reflected elsewhere in the nation although freak storms caused more misery than the sweltering mercury. Pennsylvania holiday picnics and celebrations were not marred by the weather but accidents took at least 34 lives. Parks— Continued from page ome routes 545 and 550 on Spring Creek is an exhibition place for trout fishing and fish hatcheries. In Spring Creek in Bellefonte there are also many large tame trout. Some beautiful views to be seen are: Sky Top, north of State College on Rt. 322, overlooking Bold Eagle Valley; Mountain Top between Pleasant Gap and Cen tre Hall on Rt. 45, overlooking Penn’s Valley; Mountain top, above Pine Grove Mills on Rt. 25, overlooking Nittany Valley and the Barrens; Mountain des cent near Belleville on Rt. 305, overlooking the rich Kishoca quillas Valley; Mountain descent in the Seven Mountains, on Rt. 322 to Milroy; and Penn’s View, perhaps the most spectacular, from nearby Coburn or Rayona.

The project, financed largely by student funds, was started in 1940 with the Land Grant Frescoi on the north wall. This original' painting embodied the ideology of the MorriH Act under which the College became the land grant college for the State. 2 p.m.— 93 The new series on the east and west walls carry the original theme into our own times. They were made possible by grants made by the graduating classes and other students of 1946. The Class of 1932 presented the first mural. College grants also help ed to finance the work. Work on the second part of the project was started in March, Course Offerer To Instructors To help fulfill the urgent need for new, well-prepared instruc tors for community colleges, the College is offering two new cour ses this summer. The courses are conducted by Dr. Philip A. Cowen, associate supervisor of education in the New York State Education De partment, and by Dr. Max D. Engel'hart, director of the depart ment erf examinations of the Chicago City Junior Colleges. Dr. Robert B. Patrick, of the department of education at the College who is co-ordinator for the seminars, points out that the program is intended for men and women already teaching in col leges and teachers and adminis trators in the public schools who may be interested in the com munity college field. Dr. Patrick also cites reports of the American Council on Edu cation and the President’s Com mission on Higher Education which stress the need for a mini mum of 30,000 qualified instruc tors for community colleges, tech nical institutes, and post-secon dary school programs. The course conducted by Dr. Cowan opened June 27 and will continue until July 16 while Dr. Engelhaut will conduct his sem inar from July 18 to August 6.
