Chimes 'Bal'
To Follow
Mardi Gras
By HELEN LUYBEN •
Since it's traditional to follow
Mardi Gras carnival with a ball
honoring the king, Chimes is in
augurating Penn State's first Le
Mardi Bal.
Reigning over Le Mardi Bal
will be the lucky man chosen
as king of Mortar Board's Mardi
Gras carnival. The dance will be
held from 9 p.m. to midnight at
the TUB.
Orleans' Balls Formal
Mardi Gras ball traditionally
is held on carnival night in New
Orleans. But as both the Dean
of Women's office and the junior
women's hat society realize, 1 a.m.
is hardly an appropriate time to
begin a college dance. Of necessity
Le Mardi Bal will begin at 9 p.m.
instead of earlier this morning.
Although the Chimes' dance will
be informal, balls in New Orleans
are occasions for the most elabor
ate of costumes. Women dress in
gowns embroidered in Strassburg
rhinestones and gold net and wear
long gloves which have been
dipped in 14-karat gold.
King Parades in Skirt
Penn State's Mardi Gras king
will undoubtedly be as colorful
as the New Orleans' kings, Rex
and Zulu. As at Penn State, Rex,
King of Mardi Gras and Lord of
Misrule, is chosen on the basis of
popularity. His identity is kept
secret until Mardi Gras day and
then is revealed in the news
papers. Rex parades through the
streets unmasked, gracious and
grand.
Zulu, King of the Africans and
burlesque of Rex, however, pa
rades in grass skirt, rabbit skin
vest, and black tights painted in
red and green stripes. His throne
is a Morris chair, his crown gold,
and his scepter a broomstick top
ped by a stuffed •white rooster.

ing of the International Graduate
Group of the Penn State Christ
ian Association at 7:30 p.m. Mon
day in 304 Old Main.

PSCA Cabin. Open
To Many Groups
By JOAN PACKARD
"Away from the noise of the city
Deep in the heart of the wood
High on the crest of a mountain
A stalwart cabin stood."
These words were once used to
describe the Ralph Watt Lodge,
a fully-equipped cabin which of
fers mental and physical recre
ation to the Penn State Christian
Association and other College or
ganizations.
The idea for a mountain cabin
near the College was first the
inspiration of a nature lover, who
suggested it to students and fac
ulty members. They immediately
passed the idea on to alumni who
had enjoyed the scenery and fun
of the Seven Mountains without
the benefits• of a cabin.
The Penn State Christian As
sociation was' the first to act on
the suggestion. with the purchase
of 14 acres in Shingletown Gap.
In 1926 construction began on the
beautiful stone lodge. It was fur
nished with a lounge, kitchen,
dining room, and sleeping quar
ters.
The lodge was completed in
1927. Since then it has offered the
delights of mountain scenery and

the joy of friendly companionship
to many students.
The number and variety of
groups which uses the cabin are
amazing to realize. Since the fall
semester began eight weeks ago,
17 groups have used the facilities
for different kinds of parties and
meetings. Among these are fra
ternities, Riding Club, church stu
dent fellowships, and women's
Christian fraternities.
This year many improvements
are being made on the building
to enable it to better serve the
groups that use it. A new roof,
chimney, ' and floor joists have
been installed. A new w a ter
pump and completely new kitchen
equipment, including utensil s,
have been added.
This month the downstairs walls
will be paneled in knotty pine,
and new drapes will be hung. A
plaque honoring "Daddy Groff"
and in memory of Dean Ralph
Watts will be erected over the
fireplace.
The value of the cabin as a
place to which student groups
can go with all facilities provided
is great. The cabin, open to all
groups who wish to use it, pro
vides a place for recreation and
inspiring spiritual companionship.
