To date the sale has been disappointing. No publication can exist without readers. And right now Inkling is suffering from a lack of readers. We do•not pretend to be literary experts, but from what we have been able to learn to date, Inkling's current effort deserves the support of the student body. The editors have worked hard and long to overcome the many obstacles which have been strewn in their path. Inkling may not represent the best in literary effort, but it is a respectable book, worthy of the support of 1300 students—the number of sales it would take to make the magazine meet costs. We don't think 1300 is too large a goal. If Inkling cannot get student support, we are quite certain that it will be the last lit erary effort on the Penn State' campus. We hope there are at least 1300 Penn Staters who are aware enough of the value a permanent literary magazine would be to Penn State to make a 25 cent investment. PSCA Calls You The, Penn State Christian Association is tak ing over College Sportswear, Inc., during next week to raise money for its treasury. During the week the store will be run by students, members and supporters of the PSCA, who generously donate a few or many hours of their free time to the project. Many students will be needed to work as clerks since the' store will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. each day, Monday through Saturday. ,The need for personnel is especially great during the lunch and dinner hours each day., and on Friday and Saturday nights. However, volunteers are needed for all hours. Can you spare an hour or two to devote to this project? PSCA is your YMCA and YWCA on campus, performing here the functions these groups perform in your home town. To fulfill its functions, PSCA needs . the money raised by projects such as this. Will you support its projects so that later you may share its benefits? —LaVonne Althouse The Sap Flows...

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Safety Valve-- If Waynesburg Can Send Team, Why Can't Penn State? TO THE EDITOR: I have watched pith in creasing interest the little episode which has taken place here at State regarding the send ing, by the College, of three men to the tourna ment in Colorado. I feel thdt a gross injustice has been done to Charlie Speidel and his entire team. Why can we not send eight men to Colorado? Is it the expense? If it is, why all this talk about Penn State being a "big name" college? Obviously, it isn't. Yet how expensive can it be if little Waynesburg College can send five men to the tournament? This is our big year. We cannot win, but we would have had the best chance we've ever had to do so. Oklahoma A&M is sending 15 men. , • . One other thing interests me: why did we not know about this before? Were they a little sheepish about announcing their decision? If so. isn't it rather obvious what stand they should have taken? To me it seems a rather' shallow thing to do to the men who have gone through an unde feated season, emerged as eastern champions, and were in contention to really put Penn,State on the map by gaining national recognition. I hope we saved ourselves a little money; but I think the price was a little high to pay don't you? • Letter Cut (Ed.

The Old Millstream The props are all put away, and the Gridiron Banquet is back in moth-balls for another year. But the props committee will prob ably never forget the ordeal of gathering ."everything from any where." -. Each year the task of corralling props is thrust on an unexpected junior who realizes not what is in store. This year sabres were procured from Thespians, "Ku Klux Klan" outfits from a local fraternity, a Dean of Women's outfit from Players, unmention ables from a female member of the Daily Collegian staff, records from WMAJ, and a dog from Sig ma Chi. That dog, by the way, was the most .cooperative animal we've ever run into. He didn't utter a word through two skits and ,walked on stage with nary a push when - it was his turn to take center stage: Lassie couldn't have done better. Each year the unforeseen oc curs at the last minute. This year was no exception. The Nittany Lion Inn is difficult to decorate because the Inn naturally prefers to have its walls unscarred and its decorations left in tact. There fore, enterprising Sigma Delta Chi-ers, used sheets hung from the ceiling molding on which to put flags, silhouettes, etc. Only this year, no sheets turned up among the various props. Therefore, we had to get the sheets from the first available bed. Our brother tis still wonder ing what happened to his sheets between 4 and 10 p.m. Wednesday. * * Bedlain is again reigning in Schwab Auditorium as Thespians put together their annual spring show..

The show should certainly dazzle the eye, "since Thespians are spending more money than ever before on sets and cos tumes.

A few weeks ago, we mentioned in this space a commercial school in New York which teaches slow readers' how to increase their speed. We recall that the school champ read about 800 words per minute. Now it has been brought to our attention that those New Yorkers are pikers. Right here at Penn State there are students ripping off a phenomenal 2300 words per minute. These word demons are members of a course_ in reading habits given by the College. Class members claim that studying takes no time at all. In fact, "Gone With the Wind" is reported to have been a half hour .class ex ercise. By Bibler t ___ /. 7 IQ: E.
