Junior Class Needs
r
More Enthusiasm
Last Sunday the junior class held its first
meeting. The attendance, which is never good
for such meetings, numbered around 50.
This seems to support the statements of many
campus leaders that the junior class is, to say
the least, lethargic as far as extra-curricular
activities are concerned.
Juniors interested in campus politics have
been few and far between. Both political par
ties on campus had to scout around to find
candidates for class officers. Publication staffs
found that the same problem held true for
'''them. Candidates for all publications were
much more scarce than usual.
It seems to us that the junior class —as well
as the senior class—should have - attained that
feeling of responsibility that is necessary to
face and overcome life’s, problems. Campus af
fairs, though smaller in scope than the major
affairs of life, require active students as well
as energetic members of the administration.
An example of campus activities would be
the Junior Prom. As an All-College dance put
on by the junior class, it should be an affair
that each class member could remember as
“one of the best.” This cannot be done without
committees hard working committees from
the junior class.
We do not mean to cast. aspersions on the
present Junior Prom committee. In fact, the
committee to date has done a terrific job, but
the fact remains, one good committee-does not
make a class a good class.
La Vie, senior class yearbook, requires that
all candidates be from the junior class. Those
who are selected from the candidates to be sen
ior board members for the following year—
their senior year—are responsible for their own
yearbook. What they do to it and put into it
will, or should, be cherished by each graduate
of that particular year.
All this cannot be done by a few workers
while the majority sit back and criticize. The
right to criticize should be supported by the
willingness and ability to do better!
How many of you juniors know your own
class officers? If you don’t know,- you are one
of the large number of “loafers” in the class.
Your class officers are among the hardest work
ers on campus. We think they deserve more
support than they are getting!
Lion Rallies
Penn State followers have a right to be proud
of their football team, despite Saturday’s 20-14
loss to Villanova;
Most. football pbservers rated the Wildcats
a six or 13 point favorite. Villanova has a big,
rough line, and a good backfield. They whipped
Army in their opener, and the Cadets, almost
upset Northwestern, a Big Ten power! Saturday.
Army’s narrow loss adds lustre to Villanova’s
win, and the Wildcats are now ranked as one
of the best independents in the East. But the
Lion’s gridaers refused to read the Main Liners’
press clippings, and except for some bad breaks
would have won.
Rip Engle's learn also showed the courage
lo come back when the going was roughest.
Twice, they rallied to gel back in the contest.
A team with that kind of "guts" , is a team
that will always be dangerous.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Froth Makes But
One Mistake
Froth makes its first appearance of the cur
rent school- year, with its “Good News Issue.”
Aside from the fact that we will not have to
pay for Froth this year (the editor of the Daily
Collegian receives a complimentary -copy) and
that Froth, contains some excellent pictures, of
Nancy Hensel, 1 .a rather attractive freshman,
the appearance of Penn State’s self-named
“humor” magazine doesn’t strike us as being
particularly good news.
We are informed” that the average .-issue-.of .
Froth circulates some 5000 copies on campus.
We have never, been quite convinced that there
were'that many people ,at Penn State willing
to put out a 25 cent piece for the publication.-;
Froth’s circulation director has provided us with
the answer: copies of the magazine are sold to
pig raisers for fodder.
Among the best-read features of Froth are
the short squibs poking-tun at Ihe ' Daily Col
legian for typographical and other mistakes.
Not being perfect, we do make some mistakes.
In fact, we make quite .a few mistakes. .
. - But we can- confidently say-that Froth
makes but one mistake—publishing.

Laundry
Lots of
By fair the greatest boon to the'cpilege student is the laundry' case.
Of course, conversely, it is also probably the greatest woe to Mom.
Naturally, there are'old-fashioned people who either take their
laundry to various places in the metropolis, or use the washers: in
the dormitories. But a far greater number of students rely on the
rectangular boxes to do their dirty work.
In the interest of public service, and Mom, we have painstakingly
gathered a wealth of material on the .care and packing of dirty laun
dry, It. has been collected over a
period of three years which have
been gorged to the gills with fill
ing and .mailing laundry cases.
Think' Ahead
First off, pack the things right.
This is a necessity.- If you do. it
wrong, your laundry 'case will be
he victim of- unsightly bulges. It
isn’t considered correct ,to leave
your own shirttail : hanging out,
and it is evert less in vogue so far
as a laundry case goes. Besides, it
is no help to mark it, “handle with
care,” so nine chances out of ten,
if you . leave something sticking
out, it will arrive home, without
whatever was sticking out.
In packing,, always think ahead
to the return, trip. Throw, all you
can-into one end. -This.leaves little
support for the other end. To this
madness, there'is a method. When
starched shirts come • back, Moih
can put all the collars at one end.'
It must be noted here, that, after
two or three trips,' your case will
be battered beyond recognition. If
yoli always pack in the same way,
the top will gradually assume a
sort of slant, thus eventually pro
viding a margin, of safety for the
shirt collars
Another important factor in
Laundry Case-Mailing 437, which
shall be the name of this 'course,

No Socks
It's bad enough 10 be ..caught
with your pants down,, but worse
still to be caught without... any.
This unhappy siiuation.can.be
avoided'by. always making;sure
that you have enough .of' every
thing to last until the, stuff .'comes
back, beaming ,and snowy white.
If not, you can be forcedi into
the plight of having to take;, care
of the laundry yourself. This is a
most unfortunate happening;.. The
first shortage usually occurs, with
socks. It wouldn’t be so>bad if the
socks were white, or of colors that
do. not run.. Normally, this is not
the case.
Then you are faced with the
prospect., of rinsing your socks,
slamming them' against the sink
,to get the water out,; and dropping
them over the radiator to get them
dry. an unpleasant experience
that can be avoided by some care
ful planning; and forethought.
; Next,-to . socks, shirts are the
most annoying. .You always run
but of white shirts when you have
to-go someplace special. Then you
have' no - alternative but to. dash
madly to a laundry and have them
