DRAMATIC CLASS
GOLDEN DAYS ARE
YET TO COME
PRESENTS PLAYS
The three one-act plays presented
last. Friday evening by the Dramatics
Class for the benefit of the Red
Cross were very successful. The
audience was large and enthusiastic,
and the proceeds most encouraging
to the Red Cross workers.
The "Play-Goers," by Sir Arthur
Priero, was presented as the fust
number on the program. All the
parts were well interpreted, and the
humorous situation was cleverly Sustained throughout.
Special commendation is due the work of Miss
S|ienglei; and Miss Fischer, who, as
the parlor maid and cook respectively,
were particularly good. The part of
the bewildered husband was cleverly
played by Lawrence McMabon,
The second play was the production of its star, Miss Ruth Fischer
'18. Apart from the interest of local
authorship, we feel that Margaret
was commendable on points of real
merit. Many of the lines were clever,
and the parts were well assigned,
and consistently portrayed.
Miss
Fischer's interpretation of the leading
role formed the nucleus—one might
say the entire interest—of the. play.
It could not have been other than
naturally done. The promise of the
beginning was destroyed by a weak
ending, We wonder if timidity had
anything to do with the decided
pianissimo of the finale I
For the. third play, Lewis Beach's
"The Clod," we have only the highest
commendation. The leading role was
played with real artistic ability by
Miss Doris Sweet. The part was an
extremely difficult one, hut was most
realistically portrayed. Miss Sweet's
support was also excellent, the work
of George Schaivone, William Merchant and Joseph Lnskcr bc'ntr
particularly good,
The greatest
praise we can extend to the cast of
"The Clod" is to say that it left
nnthing to he desired.
For an
amateur performance it had unusual
merit and finesse.
FROSH WIN
BANNER RUSH
Big Crowds Out to Witness "Taming of the Sophs "
One of the most exciting rushes in
the history of State College took
place last Wednesday night when all
honors were carried off by the Frosh.
In the first few minutes of the fight,
Barry '21 succeeded in placing the
Freshman banner on top of the 75foot smoke stack. Hand to hand
scraps followed in which, too, the
Frosh seemed to have the upper hand
of their foes. Were the Sophs downhearted? No! With all odds against
them, they planned and fought to the
end- never despairing. At 12 o'clock
1920's banner floated from the
ventilator of the main building, but
that building being only 60 feet high,
victory belonged to the Frosh.
Battle scared heroes with smiling
faces are still discussing the rush
and suggesting that State College
have them more frequently,

ALBANY, N. Y., MAY 29, 1918
Prof. Kirtland Addresses Students
fn an address made before the
Student Assembly Friday morning.
Prof. Kirtland began by saying: "I
shall endeavor to prove that these arc
not the golden days."
Every college student has at least
one Professor for whom he has the
most intense regard. The seniors
often feel that they are losing these
very important influences, when they
graduate. Hut on the contrary they
might he disillusioned, if they were
to remain in college indefinitely. As
it is their memories will always be
exalted ones.
Most students have for some professor at least what might be called
a "negative hero worship." In this
case, their teaching stands for that
sort which the student intends not to
do.
The young people of today arc
perhaps taught too much. It is a
good thing that there arc so many
of us who are now going out to try
to do the teaching themselves.
We have bad happy days in college,
absorbing all we could get. The happiest time for us will he the time
when we are giving of ourselves to
others.

ON FURLOUGH
Allen L, Gillett, Sophomore President of IQIO, who is with the U, S.

Alabama, has been home on a tenday furlough, Mr, Gillett spent
Monday and Tuesday at the College.
It ain't the individual or the army
as a whole,
But the everlastin' Team Work of
every bloomin' soul.
MOVING-UP D A Y
Class Rivalry Prominent Feature
Myskania '18 and '19
Moving-up Day this year was by
far the best in the history of the
college, and great thanks are due
to Myskania, which managed the
affair, and to the members of the
faculty and the student body, who
worked haul and accomplished a
great deal on the various committees.
Eleven o'clock- on the morning
of May 23 marked the beginning
of the most successful Moving-up
Day State College has ever seen.
At that time the student body,
about 80(1 strong, marched slowly
into the auditorium.
With the exception of the
Seniors, the girls were dressed
in white. Each Freshman girl
wore a bright red ribbon on
her hair, which hung down her
back. It is here to be noted that
one wayward child who wanted to
appear grown up did not have her
hair down in the morning. She
did put it down before the day
was over. Each Frosh boy wore
a bright red necktie. The 1921
banner led the line of march into
the chapel, proudly carried by the
marshals.
The platform was occupied by
the faculty and the 1917-18 Myskania. Visitors tilled up all vacant seats and quite a bit of standing room.
The program proper then began,
Ruth Fisher described " The Ideal
Senior;" Hazel llengge, "The
Ideal Junior," and Sally Roody,
"The Ideal Sophomore." Each of
these speeches were very original
and clever. Miss Hengge closed
her remarks: "After all, the ideal
Junior is best described by the following list of Juniors, one hundred
per cent. American: David Aaron,
Allan Gillett, Nicholas Clutc, Vernon Clutc, Theodore Cassavant,
Ernest Puderbaugh, Cassius Logan, Albert Marvin and Earl Sutherland."
After Joseph Walker, the president of the Senior Class, had addressed the assembly, the class
memorial, three one-hundrcd-dollar
liberty bonds, to be used for the
athletic field, was presented to Dr.
Hrubachcr, the president of the
college, by Grace Clapp, '18.
The actual moving-up ceremony
then took place, the Juniors marching to the Senior seats, the Sophomores to the Junior section, and
the '.Freshmen to the. Sophomore.
Myskania, with Lillian Magilton
as its agent, then surprised the college by unveiling a College Honor
Roll, with the names of about SO
college men who are in the service. The members of the Senior
class represented on the list are:
John A. Becker, Jr., Benjamin Cohen, John Crehan, Alfred Dedicke,
Irving Gocway, George Gordon,
Jr., Arthur Harmon, David Herman, lessc Jones, Jr., Henry Laccy,
Edward E. Potter, Arthur Burns,
Forrest Casse, Ralph Floody. Albert Marvin and DcWitt Townsend.
NEW MYSKANIA CHOSEN
The most important and most
exciting event of the day was
when the dignified members of
Myskania, one at a time, descended
from their seats of honor on the
platform, and marching to the
place where the selected Junior
sat, announced the name, pinned
purple and gold ribbons upon her
(or him), and then both proceeded
back up on the platform aga n.
The chairs of the men in service
were covered with flags.
Myskania, it should be explained
for the sake of those who may not
have heard of it, is:
"An organization composed of
not less, than ten or more than
twelve Seniors, This body governs student activities other than
athletics. On'v Seniors who have
good scholarship and have shown
ability in student leadership are
eligible for election.
" Five members of this organization are elected by the faculty,
the remaining by the active members of Myskania, Election to
Myskania is the highest honor obtainable in State College, The emblem is a key, signifying high

We congratulate "Fitz" on becoming a member of Myskania.
I walk through the .streets of the
city, '
In daylight and dark, sun and rain,
And the little red cross in the window,
I sec it, again and again.
It recks not of rank nor of station,
Tt cares not for wealth or its lack,
But the little red cross in the window,
Has all, rich and poor, at its back.
It speaks of a oneness of purpose,
Of a cause that is dear to each
heart.
Oh, that little red cross in the winclow,
Shows that each one is doing his
part.
Now, all are not gifted nor lilted
To take up the work "Over
There,"
But a little red cross in the window,
Says "At least, I am having a
share."
So here's to the work that's so noble,
And the workers, far over the sea.
And dear little red cross in the window,
Here's a prayer for the cause and
for thee I
