It' is now, generally understood that minerals have power to cause hostilities, control war stra tegy, bring victory, dictate peace treaties, and in, large measure, preserve lasting peace. The mineral arts and sciences have crystallized under three or ganic units: earth sciences, min cral, engineering, and mineral technology. • • The earth sciences are con cerned with -those divisions of natural science which relate spe cifically to the earth, its origin,• constitution, and evolution. The term earth sciences is a direct translation of "geo-ology." Mineral engineering is con cerned with extracting minerals from the earth and preparing them for use-In other words, it is the means by which mineral mat ter, including mineral fuels, is made available to man. Mineral technology is the ap plied systematic knowledge of primary methods of processing and treating mineral matter and directing its industrial utilization. It is concerned with those indus trial arts and, sciences which in volve the transformation of min eral, fuels into energy and the conversion of minerals of all classes into raw materials of in dustry or article's of com merce. , Edward Steidle, dean . Education It is with real satisfaction that I welcome new students to the. School of Education. The faculty and administrative officers of the school join me in this greeting and invite each of you to, call upon us to help you to under stand the professional program you are now undertaking and to make wise decisions on personal problems as they arise. The School of Education `'is a pre-profesional school. When you graduate from it you will prob ably not be an expert teacher or psychologist, but you will have a basic preparation on which to build professional competence. Unless you are sincerely in terested in helping other people to develop their abilities to live full and sucessful lives, and' un less you have more than average native ability to give such help, you will probably be advised to change to some other program. Our factilty is already carrying a load that is much too heavy, and it would be unfair to those students who have the qualities required for successful profes sional work for the faculty to give extra time and effort to those who do not have the traits that are required for professional success. We shall do our best to help each of you, however, to identify a field of work in which you can be successful. Welcome to the School of Edu cation, and best wishes for a profitable period of hard work. Marion R.

SALES North Atherton Street Engineering Welcome to the Engineering School'of the Pennsylvania State College. Congratulations on tak ing your' first step to joining an honorable and ancient profession. The road to professional status is a le*' . and difficult one. Only those who are willing to work long and hard arid who are gifted with the, ability to think logically and clearly can ever reach that goal.' But the goal once reached is well, worth while. The satisfac tion of creating machines and Structures which the human race wants and needs is, in itself, a great reward. In _ some ways,'• it is fortunate that'there is today a tremendous demand for engineers. Mims been estimated that the country can employ • 50,000 , . new engineers every year. This number is need ed to meet - the demands 'of our expanding economy and to re-• place those who are retiring from the profession. We are not grad uating that many new engineers each year. Even with the swollen enrollments which followed World War 11, we hardly reached this figure and now the number is steadily declining. It will be many years before the trend can .be reversed and supply will equal demand. All of this means that the pro fession needs you. It has long been recognized the ;world over that America has reached its position of pre-eminence in ma terial things because of the work of its engineers. We have always known how to make better ma chines and more of them than the other nations of the world. Un fortunately, we have not always been first in new ideas and new inventions. For years we haVe had to look to the European na tions for this kind of leadership. Today, however, that leadership is no longer virulent. We in Amer ica must try to assume it. It is my hope that among this class will be some scientists, who will provide technical leadership for the years to come. Eric A. Walker, dean Physical Education To those of you who are with us the first time, •we extend heartiest greetings and a most pleasant welcome. You will find that Penn State is a friendly col lege. Every member of the staff will be most willing to be of service you have only to ask. There are traditions with which you will soon become familiar. Observe and cultivate them. By so doing you will develop a deep and abiding • affection for your Alma Mater. You have come to college to get an education. In getting it, you must be sure to weigh val ues. Play and enjoy your recre ation, but with your playing, do not forget the purpose for which you came. Students are urged to make full use of all available facilities and" take part in athletic activi ties offered on the campus. The increased competitive spirit among students in recent years has shown up 'in the develop ment of ..these students morally as well as physically, and. it is our firm .hope -that this spirit may continue and develop _fur ther to the betterment of . the students; -the College, • and our nation.

We wish, as well, to say "hello" /to all new students of the other schools of the Pennsylvania State College. The college edtication of the individual is not the sole respon sibility of a particular school on this'•campus. Neither is it the re sponsibility. -of the faculty alone or of the students by themselves. College is truly. a cooperative undertaking with benefits for all' if adequate efforts are expended and responsibilities are assumed.
