Associate Editors, Dorothy M, Banner, '20 Kenneth P. Holben, '20 Elsie Hanbury, '20 Bertha West, '20 EDITORIALS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE CONFERENCE "State College on the Map" ha3 been our desire since time immemorial. Of all things that have helped to do this, the Student Volunteer Conference of last week has done most, perhaps—certainly much. Three hundred delegates from other colleges,— Cornell, Syracuse, Wells, Colgate, Hobart and others—were guests of State College, housed by College people, fed at the College cafteria, and entertained by the Students' Association at the basket ball game Saturday night after the evening session of the convention. Three hundred people have now returned to their respective alma maters after visiting State College. The real significance of their visit will come years later, perhaps, but the present significance is great. State College is in a position to entertain a convention. lectures and study alone, but of great advantage as the extra-curriculum lectures, concerts and talks which are held frequently in our auditorium. Last year's superb series of democracy lectures given by our faculty, and the year's serie3 on the peace conferences are splendid examples of cultural advantages. To the Freshmen and those upperclassmen who do not know Professor Kirtland intimately, wc wish to urge attendance at the Monday photography lectures. In adidtion to absolute material values to be gained, those who go will find a distinct pleasure in the personal contact and informal relationship with Mr. Kirtland. FRESHMEN, THIS MEANS YOU! Several week3 ago the "News" published an editorial on the seeming lack of respect shown by the student body as a whole to the speakers who address us in assembly on Friday mornings. However, things may have improved since then in other parts of the auditorium, the Freshman section seems to be growing noisier every week. And to think, Frosh, that before wc were complimented because it was not our side of the room from which the disturbance came. Although we are so far to one side that we cannot hear how much talking the upperclassmen do, certainly we are well aware of our own faults. If the other classes have shown a marked improvement during the past few weeks, surely we do not wish to be so far behind them in the matter of showing respect to the speakers which favor us from week to week, or in showing consideration for others. And if those other tlasses, who should be our teachers in all such things, are no better than we are, let us try to show them that, even if we are "green," we have a little common courtesy about us. And so, regardless of whether the rest need criticizing along these lines, or not, let us try, this week to show Professor Risley, and everybody else, that we know how to be polite. THE AGGIE GAME A real treat to fans came Saturday night at the game between State and Massachusetts Aggies. For the first time in our history State had to play an extra term of five minutes to decide the contest above a sixteen-all score. A more tense period is seldom seen. It was a real case of stiff fight, but Fitz's foul and basket brought the purple and gold score to nineteen, against eighteen as run up by two fouls on the Aggie side. Clean sportsmanship pays in the end. State College glories in the principles of clean play evidenced by her men in last week's games. THE PHOTOGRAPHY LECTURES The announcement in last week's "News" that Professor Kirtland would "give a series of talks on photography was read by all of his devotees with great joy, To those who have been so fortunate as to listen to his delightful rambling on this pet subject of his, the promise of more seemed a special treat. Education as given by State College, does not consist of classroom THE RED CROSS When the proposition was laid before the Freshman class, that we have a Red Cross unit in College, there was a large number of people who raised their hands, signifying that they would support it. Well, there are just about a dozen or perhaps fourteen of these people who come out to the meetings and help sew. That is a very small representation of a class as large as ours. Perhaps many of us have the idea that it will be a bore to come, but instead, it is really a lot of fun. We have not forgotten the adage, "AH work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," and we play games after our work is done. Yon mav not know how to sew well, but that doesn't make any difference. You can at least make an attempt, and you will be sure to find a great many others in the same predicament. Come on, Freshmen, and help along the movement which we have started! •22. MISSING Three days, it seems, is a short time in which big tliing3 might happen, Big things did liappen at State College, Feb. 21, 22, 23. We wonder how many "folks" at College know about them, now that their happening is past. We can testily that many State College girls came to find out what was going on, over Washington's birthday. We wonder, too, how many of our faculty realize that there came to us—to our own College here, over two hundred students, representing eighteen different colleges throughout. New York State. We wonder if even a small percentage of our faculty consider that there came, as well, many prominent speakers of this land and other lands, some of them leaders of institutions throughout the world. , Would it not seem strange to these new people to find an institution made up of students alone? State College made an impression upon these earnest sisters and brothers of ours—perhaps a one-sided impression. Many of them had never heard that such a place as State College existed. rhey noticed and mentioned the hospitality of one faculty member who kindly opened the library for their use. We wonder, with this thought in mind, where others were to give their hand of welcome. These others were missed by no small part of the two hundred travelers who came to a new country for these days. "Sisters," '19 and '21. COLLEGE COURTESY We've been terribly busy at College this year—every one of us. In tact we ve been so occupied with work that we couldn't even find time to talk to our friends as formerly. But it does seem a shame when we become so industrious that we have no time for courtesy —not the Sir Walter Raleigh courtesy, that would force the men to lay their coats around the halls for the girls to walk on, but just plain thoughtfulness for others. It doesn t take much more time to be considerate and not only does it create a much more cheerful friendlier atmosphere but it also raises the standing of our college In the first place there's our cafeteria. Of course we often have only half an hour for lunch and there are a number of things to do before one o'clock—and most of all it s so tiresome waiting in line But how many of us consider the girl ahead? She may have even less time than we have, and if she's at all meek or retiring she has probably been pushed back at least a dozen times. However, what do we care? "Let's walk over her and get up by Mary." Really, the cafeteria will soon be a fine example of the survival of the fittest. It seems that we would get through the line just as quickly if we stood in place —or if we are unusually hurried why not ask to be allowed to step ahead. If we're polite enough to ask, the other person naturally couldn't be so rude as to refuse. Our library also seems to be a scene of frequent forgetfulness. Because it is the only place we have to study, some of the student body appear to consider it a recreation room. It is very convenient to discuss the lesson with the person on the other side of the table, but I think most of us realize how hard it is to study with these discussions in progress — unless we are one of the participants. Occasional questions can be excused, but for the lengthier conversation let's depart to the hall, Most of all wc need courtesy' at our games. There the public watches, criticizes and judges us, There the visiting team meets us, notes our actions and reports them when it returns to its home college. The games are our advertisement for State College, and we don't want to be advertised as "roughnecks." Above all things don't let us lower ourselves by clapping when the opposing team fouls. Give them that hand clapping in sportsmanlike appreciation of good playing. Due to our college spirit, we certainly are overwhelmed with excitement at the games and then when someone shoots a basket and just misses everyone unconsciously sighs and gives forth a despairing " Oh." I'm not trying to label this act with the Discourtesy Sign. It isn't because we are at all disgruntled or discouraged, we simply forget ourselves, It must be rather hard on the boys, though, to hear the bleachers groan over "a lost basket when six have already been made in ten minutes. Of course they understand — but if we just keep still or grin, there won't be the slightest doubt but that we're back of them " for better or for worse." '21. KAPPA D E L T A RHO Kappa Delta Rho extends a cordial welcome to L. Paul Manville, Henry Lacey, and Henry Wood us peldge members.
