PA - GE TWO Minor Law As each semester arrives, it brings a new crop of incoming students now of progressively younger age. As the ratio of veterans dwindles, more faces fresh out of high school are seen. The old-time Rah-Rah spirit of the College will be revived. An attempt to bring back the customs on the sophs shows the trend. EVERY YEAR NEW problems arise, and every year local tap rooms must engage in guessing games. They must decide whether a person is entering the establishment for the atmosphere or to buy. Then ?they must guess again about his age. This year, cards have been provided to inn keepers by the State Liquor Control Board to protect them should they fail in the guess ing game. The law declares that any person dieregard ing the "No Minors Allowed" sign on the door is liable to a fine of $lOO or 30 days in jail. A person whose age is doubted will be asked to fill out and sign a card stating he is at least 21. A witness must sign it and the student's matriculation number must be given. The cards are filed and checked by proper authorities. FOR MANY STUDENTS coining - to a cam pus, some for their first stay away from home, the situation is much the same as the prob lem of the swaggering young servicemen fresh out of the high school. Drinking is a problem at any campus. To keep students from driv ing to Bellefonte and limit automobile,, ac cidents to a minimum, beer has been alloWed to remain. Those who enjoy a bull session over a glass of foam now and then are etern ally grateful. But the minor law must be obeyed. A tavern owner will not risk his license by selling alcoholic beverages to thoSe he doubts are of legal age. At the same time the cards are to protect the one desiring to buy. If he cannot prove his age, or will not sign the card, he will be asked to leave. But once you sign that card, they have you, Olg.
