Chimes
Suckers
Penn'Staters will be set to “lick Virginia” today, both on and off
the field. For while Coach Rip Engle’s men take care of field tech
niques, Chimes, junior women’s hat society,' will be in ch'arge of
“licking Virginia” off the gridiron.
“Lick Virginia” suckers,' Chimes’ current fund raising project,
will go on sale tomorrow morning
on campus, and will be oh sale at
game time, outside, the Beaver
Field gates. ,
The suckers are about one by
two inches in size. They come in'
a variety of .colors and flavors
that range; from red -and green
mint to deep yellow butterscotch.
Paper Pennants,
The special feature of the candy
is the. blue and white paper pen
nant, bearing'the slogan “lick Vir
ginia,” attached to each stick. The
lollipops will sell for 10 cents.
The idea for the suckers, came
to Penn State via Chimes Presi
dent Patricia Dickinson. During
project forums at the Chimes na
tional convention in St. Paul,
Minn, in August, Miss Dickinson
learned that such suckers are the
rage on West Coast campuses.
When she brought the idea
back to the local chapter, it was
immediately adopted by th e
group and work on the project
began,

such oddities as vegetables, lolli
pops,- tissue paper, sponges, and
chicken-.wire. Corsages will be
judged by a committee of Cwens,
members and their dates.
Music for the dance will be'by
the “Dream Spinners,” featuring
