PAGE EIGHT
Rebuilding of Cabin
Is Gift Suggestion
Sy SUE CONKLIN
This is the second in a series of five articles on the final
lections for the senior class gift.
Excursions to the country are the latest thing in recrea
tion at Penn State. The senior class gift committee goes along
with this idea in suggesting a recreational lodge for students.
The University owned a cabin near Boalsburg which
burned down in 1942. The foundation for the cabin still re
mains along with $7200 of insurance to be collected.

The idea for the cabin origi
nated with a former class gift of
$5OOO. Proof of the enthusiasm
present at this time was the ad
ditional $3OOO which was col
lected to build the cabin. The
original plans included a larger
building with a dormitory setup.
These plans were never fully
carried out. The cabin when it
burned had cost $BOOO and the
completion of the plans would to
tal $20,000 to $30,000.
The University owns eight acres
surrounding the cabin. This could
be used for recreational purposes
if a new cabin were erected. A
ski track is also present and was
used by the ski club at that time
The club no longer \ uses tho
track. Picnic areas are abundant
on the eight acres. Facilities for
achery and baseball could be
easily set up.
The original cabin had the con
veniences of running water, gas,
and electricty. The sight is an ap
proximate 15-minute drive from
the campus. It is in the moun
tains.
When the cabin was in opera
tion it was under the supervision
of the College of Physical Educa
tion. Ray M. Conger, associate
professor of physical education,
supervised most of the details.
Conger said he would be will
ing to supervise such an operation
again if it were voted by the
senior class.
When the cabin was in opera-
elation Award for the outstand
ing Marine Candidate.
William Happersett, senior in
electrical engineering from Upper
Darby, was presented the Armed
Forces Communications Associa
tion Gold Medal for the outstand
ing senior NROTC student major
ing in electrical engineering.
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
tion there was a great demand
for its use, and it was occupied
about three times each week.
Groups had to sign up for its
use to alleviate confusion. The
Cabin was available to faculty
groups, student groups, fraterni
ties, sororities, and outside
groups.
If a new lodge were being con
sidered, new plans could be
drawn or the same ones could be
followed. The foundation of the
old cabin could be used as well
as the money from the insurance.
Seniors will vote on the five
final senior gift suggestions when
they receive their copies of La-
Vie. LaVie will be ready for dis
tribution on approximately June
1, George L. Donovan, director of
associated student activities, said
yesterday.
