Former Dean
Donates Books
A collection of books from the
library of the late Ralph L. Watts,
former dean of the School of Agri
culture at the College, has been
donated to the College Library.
The gift, which includes 45
volumes and scores of pamphlets
and agricultural bulletins, was
accepted by the Board of Trus
tees at their weekend meeting.
Of particular interest in the
collection are Volumes I, 111, and
VII of "The Farmer's Cabinet,"
published in Philadelphia in 1837,
1839, and 1843. This was the first
agricultural paper published in
Pennsylvania and its contribu
tions are almost entirely from
Pennsylvania and the surround
ing states, although occasional
reports from Europe are men
tioned.
The bulletins are reprints cov
ering many subjects within the
range of agriculture and reflect
also Dean Watts' interest in
China and fishing.
Dean Watts, who died
,on July
2 1949, was a graduate of the
College in 1890, became professor
ef' horticulture in 1908, and in 19-
12 was named Dean of the School
of Agriculture, serving in that
—lcitv until hig rofi- -, ment with
•rit'as rank in 1939.

'Average Coed' Gripes, a la Roth,
About Masculine Stereotypes
A man is a man is a man, but
a Penn State man—ai yi yi . . .
After the average coed has
spent one, two, three or four
years observing this particular
branch of the male sex, she'll
undoubtedly place her mascu
line friends in one of the follow
ing categories:
The Aggressive Type: These
are the ones who come up tQ you
after class, grasp your arm, leer
possessively into your eyes, and
murmur• that they know several
dark corners in a couple of fra
ternity houses where an even
ing could be profitably spent,
and, being perfect gentlemen,
they'll let you choose whichever
corner you wish.
The Humble Type: In contrast
to the eager individual just
mentioned, /we have the Penn
State counterpart of Mr. Milque
toast.
This character (he's usually an
engineer, and consequently never
sees any girls) gazes at you soul

Student Places
Seventh in Chess
Durwood Hatch of the College
Chess team ranked seventh in
the Intercollegiate Tournament
held at Rutgers University in
New Jersey from Dec. 26 until
Dec. 30. Paul Dietz of Pittsburgh
won first position over 41 other
participants. •
In the Rapid Tournament won
by James Sherwin of Columbia,
Hatch ranked fourth. Represen
tatives from such colleges as
Michigan U., Yale, Purdue, and
Indiana participated in th e
matches.
This competition was an in
dividual tournament, each col
lege sending one representative.
The next will be a team tourna
ment, the colleges sending an en
tire team.
Last Saturday the College
Chess team played the University
of Pittsburgh in Altoona at the
quarters of the Altoona Chess
Club in the Webster building.
Pitt beat the College men with a

tree where he lives and spends
the rest of the semester gloating
over his conquest. This, in turn,
causes him to flunk out of col

you distracted him.
, The 'Jealous Type: If you're

Spartan Record
Although our mid-west rivals,
Michigan State, finished their
year in all sports with a not too
impressive .623' record, the
Spartaris fattened their average
at the expense of Penn State.
Only, in gymnastics was the
Lion able' to emerge victorious
as the Green and White took
the boxing match 5-3, the foot
ball game 24-0 and the cross
country meet 22-35.
The Michigan State cinder
team was the outstanding unit at
the East Lansing college in 1949,
It won the indoor and outdoor
IC4-A meets, the Central Col-*
legiate Championship, tied power
ful Southern Cal 61-61 and finish
ed 'fourth in team scoring in the
NCAA meet.
By Chance
And while speaking about
our rival sch2ol—we received
a short filler Item stating that
the best passer on the 1949
Michigan State frosh football
Team was a lad by the name of
THROWER—WiIIie Thrower, a
halfback from New Kensing
ton, Pa. Thrower, if you thiiik
back a few months, was the
high school sensation wh o
ALMOST' came to Penn State.
Coaches---
(Continued from page five)
While endorsing the rule pro
vision that allows the substitu
tion of an entire team when the
ball changes hands, the coaches
also, recommended that the rules
be amended to permit each team
to send in one man while the
clock is running between gowns.
It is believed that such a move
would help the smaller colleges,
who have been the . strongest
opponents of the two platoon
system. This recommendation will
be taken up by the rule-making
body when it meets in Pinehurst,
N, C., Monday
A poll of 612 college) and high
school coaches throughout the
country showed that' a majority
of them, as well. as, 72 per cent
of the players are in favor of the
current free substitution rule.
Other suggestions made by the
coaches dealt with the use of
arms in offensive blocking and the
coin-tossing ceremonies before
, nril same.
Pennsylvania wil be the College
team's next opponents on Feb.
18.
Members of the class team
were Richard Cressman, Robert

Robert 'Kennle. Manuel Kramer.

If your unfortunate classmate
isn't prepared to fight a duel on
the spot, he'd better present an
apology, in triplicate, by sun
down.
The Athletic Type: He likes to
take walks on a date—to Lewis
town, say, or Altoona.
On nights when there is a
basketball game and he can't
use Rec Hall for his exercises
(he needs jots of room) he may
wen ask you to go to the' game
with him. Well, don't. He'll
shout, scream, swing from the
rafters, and you'll end up hold
ing his overcoat.
Then there's the young man
who. phones you on Saturday
afternoon, says that he and five
of his buddies would like a date
that evening, and would, you
mind being raffled' off among
them?
Cheer up, there's always Vas

Raiders point for point in about
half of the events, for Boitowy
and John McGrory are out to win
for their .eaptam. The Gutteron
men look strong in the 50 and 100
yard dash events.
• In the 400 yard relay, the Lions
came up with a winning combi
nation last season. ' With a few
new faces in the lineup, they
could be • hard to beat in this
event. Add to this the perform
ances of Cal Folmsbee and Rudy
Valentino in the diving events
and the Lions, on paper at least,
stand a good chance of victory.
Rod Waters, who. last year
turned in many good perform
ances, will lead the Nittany back
strokers, while Harry Nelson is
expected to pace the Lions in the
breaststroke.
RECORD HOLDER •
Borowy, a dash man who now
holds the Glennland pool record
for the 100 yard freestyle with a -
time of 55,3, took turns winning

year, when they were both en
tered in the event. The closest
match came during the- Lions
