SENIORS SCORE
ANOTHER WIN
The seniors clinched first place
in the Interclass Basketball League
by defeating the freshmen Friday,
November 5, by a score of 29-18.
Their nearest rival are the sophomores, who now have no possible
chance of gaining first place even
though they win their remaining
games.
The first half was close, the
score being 14 lo 13 in favor of the
seniors. A fresh line-up, however,
proved too much for the underclassmen in 'the second period, and the
seniors ran Up a safe lead.

THE " NEWS " FILE
While there is much being said
about college spirit and college
traditions, we would like to say a
few words which we consider
closely applicable to both. There
is, as probably most State College
students know, a file in the
" N e w s " office containing the
papers for the years 1916-1917,
1917:1918, and 1919-1920, and this
file is supposed to be a complete
record of college activity for those
years. We say, " is supposed to
be."
It would be except for the
fact that some unscrupulous person
took it upon himself to remove
Volume II from the office without
permission, and returned the same
in a badly dclapidated condition
:and without the copy for October
17, 1917.
Now those 'bound copies of the
" N e w s " arc the only written Tiistory of State College, They should
be guarded as jealously by the
student body as the old Domesday
Book is guarded by Britain. Anyone should consider it a disgrace
to in anyway tamper with or despoil these records. Hitherto we
have left these books open to students, as many occasions have
arisen when they were the only authorities to which one could refer
to settle certain difficulties. We
trust that the students will cooperate with us in this matter, so
that we will not have to put the
file under lock and key.
Remember this, State College
people. Respect the " News " file.
Guard it carefully for it is one of
your most treasured possessions.
And, if you have a copy of the
" N e w s " for October 17, 1917,
bring it to the Publication's office
so that we can complete-Volume II
and have-it rebound.

WELL* HOW ABOUT IT?
When you hear a State. College
orchestra' mentioned, or see a
notice Of orchestra practice, do you
e^er think of a group of girls, each
with a stringed instrument; sitting
by a lake playing and singing
songs , old and new, under a wonderful "harvest" moon? Probably
you do not. You would be apt to
think of it, tho'i if you had joined
the orchestra a few weeks ago,
You can have a part in such lar.lca
and better ones if you join the
orchestra now.
Think of it — a college the size
of State with six members I Where
is our college spirit? Every one
who plays any instrument shows
his lack of that spirit every time
he does not come to orchestra practice Wednesday nights. Will there
be an orchestra we can justly be
proud of Ibis year? It depends on
us; on you — yes — on you, with
that mandolin, violin or guitar at
home. Your alma mater calls you,
Aren't you coining?
WANTED!
Well, what's wanted now? List
and you shall hear.
We want
more, and lots more at that, " ginger and snap" in upholding our
college traditions, Every real college has traditions. State is certainly a real college, and wc have
traditions, and we want to make
these same traditions "really real"
by upholding them with all our
might and main. Now, freshmen,
the clarion call is to you who are
not as yet fully acquainted with the
customs of the alma mater. Even
with all the excitement of midsemester tests, remember this one
thing: On Friday morning you
must remain seated in assembly until all the other classes have passed
out of the auditorium.
It may
seem irksome and exasperating at
first, but just remember that it is a
duty which you owe to our college.
Just remember that every freshman
who docs this is both " class-otic "
and "college-otic." Just remember that lasting traditions must be
upheld by each entering class.

SPANISH CLUB
At the last meeting of the
Spanish Club, Prof. York gave a
very interesting discussion of geographical conditions in South
America. There was quite a large
attendance at this meeting, but —
"there's always room for one
more!"
There are hints of fine times to
be had in the future, so come
and pay your dues!
FRESHMEN WIN
The freshmen 'broke their losing
streak Wednesday, November 3,
when they defeated the junior

The game was hard played, and

CLUB IS ORGANIZED AT
R. P. L, TROY, FOR
NEUTRAL STUDENTS
Nonfraternity Men Form Association at School for Engineers
Great interest is being shown at
the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy in the activities of the
newly organized Commons Club.
The club was started hist spring
aijd has progressed rapidly. The
members are all lfoitifrateruity men
not connected with the college society represented in the in tor fraternity council,
The -situation at Rensselaer has
been a peculiar one, There are
only twelve recognized fraternities
in the school and the .percentage of
students who arc meinibers is about
thirty, The neutrals, as the nonfraternity men are called, have not
shared in the social life and student
activities as fraternity men have
and one of the principal reasons
for the organization of the Commons Club was to remedy this and
give the nonfraternity man a
chance. From lime to time, during
the history of the institute, the
neutrals organized on purely political basis and, although successful
for a time, such organizations
lacked the ideals and qualities necessary for permanence and on losing prominent members' through
graduation or loss of interest dissolved.
STUDENT ASSEMBLY
According to schedule, last
week's student assembly was given
over to a college sing. But before
proceeding with the program a little business was transacted. Alida
Ballagh gave a little persuasive
argument for Ped buying. She told
of the novel plan the board has
made for recording what each class
is doing along this line. There is
going to be a thermometer like
affair on the bulletin board, with
class colors for mercury, which will
indicate the progress of each class
in Pcds bought. Then, the election
of baseball manager and assistant
basketball manager was .taken up.
The first office was won by Mr.

Illustrating a Definition
In proving a match to the browbeating lawyer the woman witness
is probably in the majority. At a
recent case in court a woman witness was giving very damaging evidence against the prisoner, and the
attorney for the defense, nettled at
her manner, decided to embarrass
her if he could.
" In giving your testimony, madam, I observe that you are constantly using the word 'irony,'
May I ask if you comprehended
its true meaning?"
" Well, f think I do. I will illustrate, ff I were to call you a gentleman I should unquestionably be
indulging in most decided irony."

Dugan: " P h w a t seems ter b' th'

He hardly spakes ter anyone."

Big Hats and Old Age
In opening the services one Sunday recently, the pastor of one of
the fashionable churches said:
" F o r three Sundays I have asked
the women in this church to remove their hats during service.
My appeal has been unheeded, and
now I see wherein I was wrong. I
was inconsiderate of the comforts
of the aged and infirm, so I have
made a new rule. Hereafter all
women of forty years of age or
over will be permitted to wear their
hats during the service,"
Within twenty seconds every woman in the church was bareheaded.
Life in a Flat
" Hello, Tom, old man, got your
new flat fitted up yet?"
" Not finite," answered the friend.
" Say, do you know where I can
buy a folding toothbrush?"
Tommy's Inspiration
They were at dinner and the
dainties were on the table.
"Will you take tart or pudding?"
asked Papa of Tommy,
" Tart," said Tommy promptly.
His father sighed as he recalled
the many lessons on manners he
had given the boy.
"Tart, what?" he queried kindly.
But Tommy's eyes were glued on
the pastry,
"Tart, what?" asked the father
again, sharply this time,
"Tart first," answered Tommy
triumphantly.
It Was Hopeless
" Be careful," said the foreman of
the construction gang to a green
hand who had just been put on the
job, "keep your eyes open. When
you sec a train coming, throw down
your tools and jump off the tracks.
Run like blazes! "
"Sure!" said Thomas, and began
to swing the pick.
In a few minutes the express
came whirling along.
Thomas
threw down his pick and started
up the track ahead of the train as
fast as he could. The train overtook him and tossed him into a
ditch. Badly shaken up, he was
taken to the hospital, where the
foreman visited him.
"You blithering idiot!" said the
foreman. " Didn't I tell you to take
care and get out of the way? Why
didn't you run up the side of the
hill?
" Up the soide of the hill, is it,
sor?" said Thomas through his
bandages on his face, " Up the
soide of the hill? By the powers.
I cannot bate it on the level, let
alone running' up-hill!"
Pullman porter (to aged man as
train pulls into a depot)—" Brush
you off, sir?"
Aged man—" No, I'll get off the
usual way."
