Five College Teams
Enter Canoe Race
Four teams other than the entry sponsored by Froth will rep
resent the College in the Canoe race at the Flaming Foliage Festi
val at Lock Haven tomorrow.
Froth’s canoe will be paddled by Frothy, the magazine’s jester,
and Joseph Barnett, the freshman who identified Paul Poorman
as “The Foolish Hatman.” Other crews from the College include
Fred Westman and Clifford Fry;
Lincoln Warrel and Edward Ma
kovsky; Harry Arnold and Rob
ert Jones; Dick KUngensmith
and Jack Baker.
40-mile Race
Thirty-one crews representing
various schools,, colleges, _and
other organizations will partici
pate in the 40 mile race down the
Susquehanna. Princeton, Car
negie Tech, and Juniata will be
among those competing for hon
ors. State’s sports rivals, Pitt and
Bucknell, have no entries in the
contest.
Engle, Eads
Speak to
Councils
Coach Charles “Rip” Engle and
the Rev. Robert H. Eads spoke to
freshman council and the upper
class round table Wednesday
night.
Talking to freshmen about the
values of athletics in college,
Coach Engle said that if sports
are run in the right way, he be
lieves they have a definite place
in education.
Admittedly, if sports develop
hatred or prejudice, they are not
worthwhile,' Engle said. He be
lieves the boys playing college
sports learn a great deal more
than how to win a game.
■ He cited incidents of last year’s
team as examples. When the team
left the Comhusker Hotel in Lin
coln, Neb., after their game, a
woman, in charge said that the
team had been' the finest, best
behaved group that had ever been
there, Engle said.
The football coach told of the
words on a -sign in the football
locker room, forming an acrostic
of the word “champs”—courage,
honesty, attitude, manners, 1 prac
tice and sacrifice. If, they develop
these virtues, he said, sports have
a place on any campus.
The Rev. Eads, speaking on
“What About Sex?” recommended
that students in college date a
wide variety of people with dif
ferent backgrounds and interests
from them own.
He referred to an article in the
September issue of “Intercolleg
ian” called “The Desirability, De
lights and Dangers of Dating,”
which gives advice to college stu
dents on dating matters and prob
lems.
To get dates, the Rev. Eads
recommended that students join
organizations and become active.
This has a double effect, he said,
for the student can meet more
people and the prestige derived
from being active makes him
more desirable to date.
The Rev. Eads stressed the im
portance of religion in dating and
mentioned campus counseling
services which are always ready
to help, students with their in
dividual problems. ■
