How much it has actually grown might chance will not bring some of us through. Lifeless Life History: A Blade of Grass The life of a blade of grass on campus goes through several stages. First, it’s nurtured from seed into a hardy green stalk by vile smelling fertilizer. Then, after a nice spring rain, the blade of grass is praised by the student body, happy to be going to a school on a real campus rather than a city college, surrounded by nothing but hard, cold pavements. A short time later, someone decides to save a few seconds traveling time from Engineering units to Ag Hill, and tramples the grass, taking his own short cut instead of a paved path. If it were only one, the grass would survive, but one is joined by two. Soon, the blade of grass is pulverized into another dried-up brown'weed, sitting in a patch of mud. Comes the monsoon, and all three complain—Why doesn’t the Uni versity pave the more popular paths on cam pus? And, physical plant complies with student wishes. The grass has’ a proper burial—under a layer of asphalt—and another walk criss crosses what was once campus lawn. Not too long ago, our campus was green. Today it is brown and black striped. And, the A Fair Procedure? After all the attempts by student government to establish a more equal disciplinary .system, one event has recently shown equalization may still be badly needed. In every attempt to make disciplinary pro cedures fair v the coeds and male students have been separately treated by Judicial or Tribunal. This may become one of the largest unequalizers in the disciplinary procedure. There has been more than little discussion among students as to contrasting discipline that appears to exist in a recent case. A freshman coed and her date were drinking at a fraternity. The fraternity received 14-week social pro bation, plus fine. Tribunal has recommended suspension for the male student involved. Judi cial gave the coed three weeks strict campus. More ihan a few have claimed this is an un fair contrast. Similar cases are sure to occur in the future when Judicial and Tribunal • hear different students involved in the same offense. Investigation of this irregularity may bear some deep consideration. Women are wiser than men because they know less and understand more.—J. Stephens' Of all the horned-cattle, the most helpless in a printing-office is a college graduate. —Horace Greeley Q. —Where do you go for— /jS\Pmmrmd HARTMAN'S BARBER SHOP UNDER the Corner Room THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA beautiful lawns, unknown to most colleges, are almost a thing of the past. Here too. For only a few weeks is anything done to “keep the campus green.” That is early each fall, when frosh are prohibited from using any thing but paved paths, and each spring when Alpha Phi Omega plants signs on illegal paths, “Student, spare this blade.” The rest of the year—those seconds saved mean much more than a nice campus. No one likes mud paths, and the University, as often as it is able, paves these paths. Yet, students still say "Penn State is so much nicer than a city school." We do not have the smoke, or the noise, and we soon will not have the campus. Take a look from Old Main tower some day—the campus is criss-crossed with walks. Why not end this end less paving job and simply give the whole cam pus an asphalt coat? Students cannot refrain from walking on the grass, so why have grass at all? Have you ever noticed the paved yard around the elementary school? Those children cannot keep from walking on the grass either. —Ann Leh Today PENN STATE BIBLE FELLOWSHIP, 7:30 p.m., 405 Old Main.

HOW DIPLOMATIC ARE YOU TOWARD THE FAIRER SEX? Proper deportment on dates is the key to social success. Do you have that key or are you forever picking the lock? Take the follow ing personality test and see where you stand. 1. You have a blind, date. Having arrived ai ihe dorm you call her room io iell her so. The young lady who meeis you has lovely blue eyes bui ioo many of Ihem; also a slight double chin, which is hardly noticeable since her lower lip covers it. You would ... a.

Introduce yourself, assist her with her coat, walk her to the car,, open the door, and help her in. You would then get into .your own car and drive off. 2..

Smile and encourage your girl to take it, then place your spoon under her plate and flip the pie in her kisser. d. Ask your girl if she would like to go to another place. When she nods, tell her to go right ahead —you’re staying there and having that pie. 3. It is late. You and ihe girl of your dreams are alone.

You’ll just have to go in now. No, you can’t stay out all night. How to score: Give yourself ten points for every one you checked and ten points for every one you didn’t. Now add your own age. If you scored between 90 and 120, you could do with a course in simple arithmetic. If you hit 150 or better, you’re too old to go to college. All those fitting anywhere between the two afore-mentioned groups have flunked the.test and will have to study a little harder for the next one. Noll to Speak Monday At Faculty Luncheon Dr. Clarence I. Noll; assistant dean of the School of Chemistry and Physics, will speak at the Faculty Luncheon Club meeting at noon Monday in the Hotel State College. He will speak on “Midshipmen Cruise Baker,” and will describe his trip with a Navy ROTC train ing cruise during the summer. A college education seldom hurts a man if he is willing to learn a little something after he graduates.—Anon
