Full Weekend Set For Visitors Next to Homecoming Weekend, the occasion of Mother's Day produces the greatest influx of "outsiders" into State College. Today and tomorrow the folks will be coming in to take a look at the place that eats up so much of their hard-earned money. We have a feeling that Mom and Dad and the kid brothers and kid sisters will take as much of a liking to our College as most of us have. Most of the folks will go home with the feeling that the money it takes to put a stu dent through college is not being wasted. A good bit of sight-seeing and photo-taking will be in order for the weekend. But visitors to the College this weekend can take home with them more than souvenirs, for there is hardly an interest that cannot be satisfied today and tomorrow. For the sporting enthusiasts a lacrosse game and tennis and track meets should highlight the day, while those interested in the drama can take their choice between "Lady in the Dark" and "John Bull's Other Island." The Dairy Ex position and the May Day program add to the weekend's festivities. So along with the usual mementos of a week end on a college campus, the folks can take back with them the knowledge that we have more than a i pollection of laboratories and classrooms. Penn State is a community, with all the activities of a community. The folks will be pleased. Mad Millinery Wednesday is the day for all the College extroverts, artists, milliners, and crazy people to hit the headlines. Mad Hatter's Day can provide many us us with a real purpose for our empty, leisure hours from now until then. The contest, which will seek out the persons on campus who have done the most or least for their heads by inventing hats, will reach a climax in front of Old Main at 2 p.m. with the presentation. df cash prizes. It would be a real feather for a sorority or fraternity to be able to grab the top prize in such a project as a group. —Bud Fenton THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA New Auditorium Needed By College The many persons who have attended and will attend Players fine production of "Lady in the Dark" this weekend will see why the College badly needs a new auditorium. The main criticisms of the handsome musical play can all be traced to "house" difficulties. Admittedly the play is elaborate; revolving stages were used when the Moss Hart produc tion played on Broadway. Sets in the Players' "Lady" have been abbreviated and are not re volving, but they are still elegant and require much more space than Schwab can provide. Even before an addition to Recreation Hall is built, something should be done to increase campus auditorium facilities. Schwab limits the Dramatics department and other groups using it because of its meager accommodations. Only 1200 of the more than 10,000 students on campus can squeeze into Schwab at one time. There are also faculty members and towns people who use the auditorium. It is also evi dent to those with a knowledge of the theater that the lighting and prop accommodations are woefully inadequate. A show with the popularity of "Lady" could 'play to a much larger audience. Both Friday and Saturday nights were sold out days in ad vance of the presentation. Although the current international situation and repercussions will probably hold up plans for the building of a new modern auditorium, the College should definitely include such a structure high up on the list of its future ex pansion plans. A new "Schwab" would add, not only to the enjoyment of those appearing in it, but also to the pleasure of the thousands who will find entertainment , and instruction within its confines. Gazette .

The first College catalogue (1859) reports: "The farm being in a very un improved condition, has since been thoroughly grubbed and plowed, and in the intervals of the ordinary farm duties over 3000 two-horse wagon loads of stone have been removed from it." Nearly all of this labor was done by the stu dents themselves. —History of State College —Moylan Mills A WEEK FROM TODAY Houseparties and The Spring Week Surprise From 10 :1030 a.m. Full Details Later * * * It's all part of SING WEEK Little - Man On Campus "He just found out he'll have to pay 'for all those supplies— the vets' office phoned, him he ran out • of the G.

He will speak under the sponsor ship of a group of student lead ers who are backing Lerner after a faculty group allowed it self to be intimidated by entirely unfounded and rather ridiculous Communist charges against the newspaperman. It all started some time ago when Lerner was requested to speak at the university by the Kemper Knapp committee and the University Memorial Forum.
