Junior Class Week NOV. 12 - 76 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. engagerrten,to Garfield-Goldblatt Mr. and Mrs. Menchy Goldblatt of Philadelphia announce the en gagement of their daughter, Ruth, to David Garfield, son of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Garfield of Phila delphia.

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 co-edib Beta Sigma Omicron Beta Sigma Omicron has rib boned Dawn Beidler, Elizabeth Tominson, and Ga i 1 Cravener.

Senior Board to Meet The senior board of the Daily Collegian business staff will meet at 3 p.m. tomorrow in the Col legian office. 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.
