THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA I Ski Club Members Await First Snow To most local inhabitants - the coming of the now overdue first snow will.be a sign to break out the winter longies. To a small arid hopeful band of collegians and townspeople the'first white frost will be a signal to dope up their skis and make ready for another season of gliding about the moun tains of central Pennsylvania. When the first snow hits the ground, this latter' group, the members of the Penns Valley Ski Club, will cast aside text books, slide rules, household chores, and other worldly cares, scamper off into the mountains and proceed to make great sport out of slip ping, romping and careening over the soft, white terrain. The north side of Bald Knob, atop Tussey Mountainj five miles east of State College, will be the center of their activities. In the meantime, the Penns Valley skiers are not' allowing time to slip by. They are prepar ing for the inevitable first snow, crawlirig all over the sprawling 800-foot elevation of Tussey Mountain. They are principally concerned with completing the new tow, a stone blockhouse for the new machinery, and repairing Warnock Cabin, the one-time summer home of Arthur R. War nbck, recently retired dean of men. Repairs on the cabin have been completed, and club members are Aow painting the building. The club was without any shelter last year, the Ski Lodge constructed by the College in 1941 having been destroyed by fire in 1947. When completed, the new tow will stretch 800 feet, with an ele vation of 230 feet. Egmont Cro nau is in' charge of building the stone-blockhouse, jokingly call ed “the Bastille" by club mem bers, while'Dave Dawson, an en gineering major, is directing the installation of. the tow motor. Other students active in prepar ing for the coming drifts are Dave McCalip, pre-vet; Bob Cza piewski and Charles Frost, for estry; Bob Coleman, mechanical Engineering, and Ralph Hickman, art education. 1 The Tussey Mountain slopes are considered among the best in northeastern United States by veteran club members, although they admit that the runs are not as- long as those at some of the better ski resorts. Sally Shoemaker (S) Jack Haines (L) In addition to a long trail to the top of; Bald Knob, there are several diverging trails, none of them less than ten feet wide. Part of the lower racing slope opens into a field 50 to 100 feet wide, and measuring 400 feet at its widest. These racing slopes are com parable in quality of terrain to the runs at famed Lake Placid in New York, the club members claim. It 4s possible to . ski on as little as one inch of snow on Tus sey Mountain. The season lasts an average of 60 days. It is the aim of. the club to pro mote skiing in the State College area. To achieve this end the or ganization conducts social affairs on weekends during the season and offers free' instructions. But members aren’t worried much about the “social season” right now. They’re burning .incense in their spare time and hoping that snow doesn’t fall while they are home on Christmas holidays. The runs were built in 1936 by' forestry students under direction of Max Dercum, a former pro fessor at the College. The Penns Valley Ski Club was incorporat ed as' a non-profit organization in 1945. Although about 95 per cent of its members are College stu dents, many townspeople and faculty members and their fam ilies are active members. The site for the run was donated to the Ski Club for the Winter season by Claude! Aiken, who usgs the ground for pasture' land during the summer. Where's Coaly?
