Call Chest Drive
Definite Success
Two officials of the campus
Tshest drive issued a joint state
ment yesterday in which they
hailed this year’s drive as a defi
nite success.
Herbert Axford, chairman, and
Marlin Brenner, steering commit
tee member, made the statement
influenced by an editorial in yes
terday’s Collegian. This editorial
claimed the chest, which missed
its goal by 25 percent, was poorly
organized and lacked initiative in
soliciting.
The joint statement pointed out
that this was the first year that
s.uch a drive had been held on
campus and that mistakes are na
tural during the first year of such
a huge undertaking. It said that
officials in following years would
profit from these mistakes and
predicted that the chest will reach
its goal in years to come.
Axford and Brenner extended
their thanks and appreciation to
the 300 students who aided the
chest. They said that the addresses
of approximately 2000 students
living in town were unavailable,
and that they could not be solici
ted in the manner in which the
majority of the students Were.*
“Next year, however,” they said,
“the committee will make certain
that a complete list of housing
cards are available to make Cam
pus chest a success and thereby
profit by the experience of this
year’s committee.”
They added that it was evident
that organization of the chest
must begin the preceding spring.
Such a plan would provide a bet
ter integrated program of publi
city, solicitations, and a series of
special events.
“Campus chest was a success
this year,” they said. “We feel that
it is here at the Penn State cam
pus and because of its worthiness
will become an institution at Penn
State. As years go by. the mistakes
made by previous Campus chest
committees will be voted and cor
rected in order to make all future
drives a 100 per cent success,” Ax
ford and Brenner said.
The drive was held from Oct.
28 until Nov. 10 and had a goal of
$14,000. Nearly comolete figures
showed that about $10,500 was
collected during the two weeks.
Luther Harshbarger, executive
secretary of the PSCA, called the
drive a success despite its failure
to make its goal. He pointed out
that the chest fostered good will
and cooperation between organi
zations. These were missing, in
former 'years when each group
held its own separate solicitation,
he said.

Two Bronze Works On
Display In Old Main
Two bronze works, each by a
leading American sculptor, are
on display for an indefinite time
in the foyer of Old Main.
One is a large portrait bust of
Philip Sayers by Joseph Epstein.
It was loaned by Michael Sayers,
the subject’s son. The other was
loaned by the sculptor, William,
Zorach, and is the figure of his
daughter, Dahlov.
The figure by Epstein was first
done in clay while Zorach did his
in maple wood. Though both
works exhibited are executed in
