Trainer to Receive
Hort Show Honor
The annual Hort Show this weekend will be dedicated to Walter
W. Trainer, supervisor of landscape construction and maintenance
for the University.
Trainer, who is largely responsible for the beauty of the campus,
has held his position at the University for nearly 25 years. He has
planned the planting of trees, shrubs, and flowers to landscape every
new building since assuming his
position.
In 1932 the care of the Univer
sity golf course came under his
supervision, and in 1944 his re
sponsibilities were enlarged to
include the maintenance of the
University farms.
Trainer’s study in this field be
gan when he enrolled in the Uni
versity in landscape architecture,
after World War I. After receiv
ing his degree in 1923, he became
a landscape engineer, employed
by a Philadelphia landscape arclii
tecture firm'
He returned to the University
in 1930 to take his present posi
tion. Since then he has taken ad
ditional courses to earn his mas
ter of science degree.
In addition to his campus re
sponsibilities, Trainer served on
the borough shade tree commis
sion from 1931 to 1948, holding
the office of chairman for six
years.
Although previous shows have
been dedicated to members of the
Horticulture department, Howard
Angstadt, show manager, said the
Horticulture Club, sponsors of the
event, voted to dedicate the 41st
annual show to Trainer “for his I
outstanding work on the Penn
State campus.”
The complete front of a modern
home provides the setting for the
show’s theme, “Today’s Garden
Design.” Varieties of vegetables,
fruits and flowers will be used to
landscape the Stock Pavilion.
Growing turf grass, living trees,
and ornamental flowers will be
used for the modernistic setting,

president. The motion was tabled
befoss® discussion reached the
method of selection.
Diehl McKalip, president of the
Board of Publications, asked Ho
man about the publishers, original
purposes of the publication, and
the cost to students included.
Hat Society Council President
Robert Smoot speaking from the
floor, said the cost was $12.50 for
each student, paid by; the students
themselves. He specified, how
ever, that , students nominated
were not obligated to return their
applications.
Smoot said that each student
included received a copy, while,
as best as he could recall, copies
were supposedly sent to college
administrators.
He added, however, that he had
never seen one at the University.
There is not a copy of the book
let in Patee Library.
The consensus at this point in
debate seemed to be that the pub
lication had been started strictly
as a money-making venture and
that the cost was excessive.
When the motion was tabled,
Homan was instructed to write to
the publisher for more detailed
information about the purposes
of the book.
He was also asked to contact
Simes regarding the feelings of
the National Association of School
Personnel Administrations on the
book. At the previous cabinet
meeting, Simes said that the book
was disapproved of by that group.
• However, in a subsequent inter
view with a reporter for the
Daily Collegian, Simes said that
he was not sure if the disapproval
was official action or merely the
feelings of many of the members,
including himself. He said he
would contact the national secre
tary for discussion records on the
book.
Although the deadline for nam
ing candidates to the book is Oct.
24, Homan said he believed that
the publisher would give the Uni
versity an extension in order that
the answers might be received
and action taken.
In the past, 30 seniors were
named to the book antHtaUy.

Homecoming Display
Deadline is Noon
The deadline for registration
of displays in the Interfrater
nity Council homecoming dis
play contest has been extended
to noon today, John Carpenter,
president of IFC, announced
lasi night.
Entrants must be registered
at the Student Union desk in
Old Main in order for fraterni
ties to qualify, he said.
Judging of the contest will
take place between 9 and 10
p.m.. Carpenter said.
Thespians
(Continued from -page one)
they more than accomplished their
job.
After the crowning of Joan
MacKenzie as Homecoming Queen,
the show-got off to a rousing start
with Alec Beliasov and Harriet
Barlow singing “I Wouldn’t Want
To Be On A Lonely Isle With
You.” Later Beliasov, in his usual
humorous role, also excells in
“Uraguay,” another song number.
“So You Want To Be A House
mother,” the next skit, with its
forced humor and exaggeration,
was one of the lower quality parts
of the show.
The musical, however, reached
a professional height with Mike
McKay, a newcomer to Thespians,
singing “I Remember CaroL”
With the fine voice of McKay
doing the excellent lyrics of the
song, it is unfortunate that a long
er skit couldn’t have been worked
out.
“Heaven Only Knows,” closing
the first act, could easily have
closed the show if it hadn’t been
for the characterization done by
Patricia Mansfield. As an Irish
washerwoman s’ j jumped and
sang around the stage to the de
light of the audience, but while
not singing “Heaven Only
Knows,” she almost spoiled her
value ‘=>by an exaggeration that
soon stopped being laughable.
She was-fortunate to escape the
false, forced humor that ruined
other skits as “Osmand Lab Con
fidential” with Philip Wein push
ing his ventriloquistic merriment
into the audience’s face and mak
ing them swallow it.
"Caine Mutiny" Parody
- This was also the fault of
“P.S.U.S.N.R.O.T.C. Court Mar
tial,” a parody on “The Caine
Mutiny Court Martial” with a bit
of Joe McCarthy thrown in seem
ingly for laughs.
If one can go to “Funny Side
Up,” constantly keeping in mind
that it is a student-written pro
duction, he might consider it in
a favorable light, but if one did
not know this, he couldn’t help
but be dissatisfied with the show.

Amendments—
(Continued, from page two)
for his present office last spring.
Favro quotes Arnelle as telling
the Daily Collegian- on March 24,
“I feel cabinet should have time
to look over appointments.”
The amendment was similar to
one defeated by All-University
Cabinet last year.
Sinclair said his amendment
was proposed to prevent “people
who have no right. to be here"
from sitting on cabinet.
Sinclair said his amendment
would stop this' practice “once
and for all.”
According to the All-University
Constitution, amendments must
be read and discussed at three
consecutive meetings, and can be
passed after the third reading
with a three-fourth vote of All-
University Cabinet.
"Thus, no action—other than
reading the amendments—was
taken last night.
Cabinet—
(Continued from page one)
would be sending a substitute to
an examination, serving as a sub
stitute, or stealing or receiving
a stolen eramination.
. Cabinet also adopted a resolu
tion directing the judicial com
mittee to instruct hostesses in the
women’s dormitories to to how
to avoid discrepancies in the
blackmark system.
