COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Community Concert Series Signs Indianapolis Symphony The Indianapolis Symphony Or chestra, has been signed to appear in the Community Concert series on Feb. 9, W. E. Kenworthy, chair man of the board, announced yes terday. The announcement came as so licitors reported over 900 of the 1230 memberships already sold. Relatively few subscriptions have been sold to students, John Thay- inauguration Sidelights One evidently unimpressed with the ceremonies could only remark, "What a seat for a foot ball game." Despite the sunny skies many found the shaded stands chilly enough to wear sweaters and top coats. Some of the faculty mem bers and married veteran-students brought along their youngsters. Some were even equipped for rapid changes and feeding, but others were not equipped to pre vent some untimely bawling. Cameras were popping from all over the stands as well as the field. Celebrity seekers even high in the grandstand could spot Gen. Dwight D. Eisen hower by watching press photo graphers who kept shooting at him during the speeches. About six hardy tennis players refused to give up their courts until the program actually began. They came right back again when the program ended. Comments an d wisecracks showed the audience could ap preciate humorous angles in the midst of a rather sober aca demic ritual. When Dr. Eisen hower reached for a water glass during his speech, for instance, one asked if he carried his own milk shakes. After the speakers filed onto the platform, the College mar shal, Prof. David H. McKinley, began to check off the honored guests in the front section. Com mented one student, "He's prob ably taking role." Wednesday night, the Glee club went to the President's mansion to serenade the Eisenhowers after the inaugural reception. They went into their song, and General and Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower came out and told them that President and Mrs. Eisenhower were still at White hall, where a reception was being held. The glee club moved over to the hall, called the President and his wife out on the porch, and once again sang the "Fight Song", "Blue and White", and the Alma Mater. Freshmen, Hatmen Serve As Ushers Freshmen were pressed into service as ushers at yesterday's inauguration when the junior hat societies ran short of men for the job. Over 30 freshmen were station ed in the stands under the super vision of men from Blue Key and Androcles. Hatmen scoured the campus for volunteers among the freshmen an hour before the scheduled start of the ceremonies. Frosh ushers wore dinks and bow ties with signs optional. Two were placed in every section of the stands. WALLET PHOTOS 20 for $l.OO Perfect for application n Friendship Photos. 2% c.3 1 ,f 3 double weigh , ....

Receives Seal (Continued from page one) head of the Music department, the procession stretched one eighth of a mile from the field entrance. At the end of the long line was the platform party, headed by James Smith, College chaplain. Members of the party were Davis, Duncan, Duff, Stoddard, Milhol land, and Dr. Eisenhower. The honor guard already had stationed themselves around the platform. They remained there throughout the 95-minute cere mony. It took 15 minutes for the en tire procession to enter the field and be seated facing the plaiiorm, which had been erected in front of the west stands. The weather was ideal. Pres ident Eisenhower remarked at his press conference later, "I hope things turn out as well later as the weather situation did today." TYRONE ?AGE THREE
