State College seems to 'have a

sit down, roll up our sleeves, and
say, "Go to it, now, let us make a
tradition." And then we make one.
We let it age for one year, grow
hoary in a second, and bury it in
the third, And then wc sit down
again and fabricate another. People wonder, meanwhile, why we arc
such a young college and lack distinctive customs,
Wc have several examples of our
delightful habit within this ' one
year. The Myskania key was
changed — the old one resembled
the Phi Beta Kappa key too much.
Wc snarled against the carelessness which permitted such a mistake to be made, and submitted to
the change. Just at present the
college ring is being standardized
— for the second time in our history, And now come suggestions
for improving our college colors.
Fire prep schools have similar
ones. They should be considered
first, of course. The colors arc
hard to secure in athletic supplies.
The purple and gold has been used
for over ten years, and yet this is
the first time that complaint has
been heard,
It seems as though traditions
count for nothing here. Individuality can lose itself while wc
progress. Let's be different every
year. Let's change everything.

THE COLLEGE MAN
In the "Saturday Evening Post,"
for February 5, Nathaniel Butler
has an interesting discussion on
" What a Man Gains in Going to
College," Admitting first of all
that there are some for whom a
college education is economically
out of the question, sonic " whose
full measure of culture and attainment, so far as school can help
them at all, is reached before the
college stage," and some who because of mental or physical feebleness should be excluded from
higher, institutions, lie still effectively answers those who think,
that a college education is a waste
of time, and true instruction commences with graduation,
in clinching his point that higher
training is worth while, Mr, Butler
first proves that a college education has actual money value. From
statistics compiled by the United
States. Bureau of Education he
shows that the college men receive
the highest average wages in all
fields of commercial and industrial
enterprises, He cites Mr. Charles
Sabitt, president of one of the
largest trust companies, as saying:..
"Every employer is looking for
t'hc man who not only can think,
bill will tiiink, One can hire any
number of people marvelbttsly
skilled in routine or in detail — human machines that will run on
splendidly as lung as motor power
is supplied 'and nothing unusual
turns up in the work, ft has been
impressed upon me through many
years of contact with college graduates in business and in banking
that
the
well-trained
college
man grasps intricate situations and
reduces them to essentials much
more quickly than the equally
well-trained man who has not had
'lie advantage of the broader
fundamental education which the
college should give."
Then in the second place Mr.
Butler proves a college training develops a man's ability to live with
others as a neighbor and citizen,
lie quotes Professor
William
James, Dr. Richard C, Cabot, and
also former President Hyde, of
Bowdoin College, Mr. Hyde left
on record a classical enumeration
of what a man gains in this respect from going to college:
" T o be at home in all lands and
all ages; to count Nature a familiar
acquaintance and Art an intimate
friend; to gain a standard for the
appreciation of oilier men's work
and the criticism of one's own; to
carry the keys of the world's library in one's pocket, and feel its
resources behind one in whatever
task he undertakes; to make hosts
of friends among the men of one's
own age who arc lo be leaders in
all walks of life; to lose oneself in
generous enthusiasms and cooperate with others for common
ends; to learn manners from students who arc gentlemen; and to
form character under professors
who arc Christians — these are the
returns of a college for the best
four years of one's life."
Mr. Butler goes on himself to
say:
" The characteristics which are
sometimes regarded peculiar to the
college boy—indifference, vanity,
egoism, argument, slang — are in
fact those of youth, whether in or
out of college. There is room for
a wide difference of opinion as to
whether between the ages of eighteen' and twenty-four t'hc " youth
gets these things knocked out of
him and gets some sense knocked
into him more effectively in busb
ness or in college."
.- ':
And in conclusion he sums up as
follows;
"Statistics of college attendance
and of college endowments, the
judgment of leading men in commerce and industry, the expressions of confidence of the American
people in their colleges, and the
degree in which the graduates of
American colleges have led in
every walk of public find private
life testify lo what a man gains in
going to college, in his ability to
get llie ibest tilings out of life, to
stand for t'he best things in life, to
find his place and do ins work."

PRINCETON MORALS
IN STUDENTS' CARE
Faculty Gives Senior Council Power
to Dismiss Unworthy Undergraduates
SEQUEL TO HONOR SYSTEM
Cheating at Examinations Almost
Unheard Of in the Last
28 Years
Princeton, Feb. 26.—Princeton University this week took a long step toward complete student control of the
morals of the undergraduates when
the Faculty unanimously approved a
resolution giving to the Senior Council, the student governing body scIccteer by the undergraduates, power
of dismissal from the university
without a statement of cause to the
Discipline Committee or any other
body connected with the Faculty.
The Princeton Senior Council under
this ruling will have power to deal
unmolested and without re-porting any
evidence with any cases which in
their estimation " tend to lower the
moral tone and good name of Princeton."
President Hibben to-day issued a
statement commending the new plan.
The resolution adopted by the Faculty on the subject requires a threequarters majority of the Council vote
to^convict a student,
That the erring undergraduate will
find no easy jury to face him when
he is brought to trial by the fifteen
members of the Council is to be seen
from the severe nature of the penalties which arc always inflicted by the
undergraduates. Dean McClenahan,
in commenting on the new rule, said:
• "Their'attitude toward their fellow-studcnL is exactly what one
would expect, They are, on the
whole, more severe in their judgments than are the members of the
Faculty, and are even more bloodthirsty than I,"
This drastic action is the result of
the gradual development of the
Princeton honor system, established
twenty-eight years ago, Under this
system all examinations are conducted without Faculty supervision,
and the student is at liberty to talk
with others during the examination,
or even to leave the examination
hall for a smoke or to get the morning mail at his room, the only restriction being a signed pledge of
honesty at the end of the paper, A
student committee deals with all suspected cases of cheating, and Dean
.McClenahan, the chief disciplinarian
of (he university, recently staled that
in the entire twenty-eight years "llie
number of provon cases of dishonesty might almost be counted on llie
fingers of two hands," in (he same
statement the Dean, who was an undergraduate at the time of the inception of the honor system, dubbed
cribbing as "one of Princeton's favorite indoor sports" prior to (his
lime.

Summary: Score at half time,
State, 10; Clarkson, 6. Referee,
Sisson. Fouls committed, Clarkson, 9; State, 8. Time of periods,
twenty-five minutes.
St, Lawrence started out with a
whirlwind attack in the Saturday
night tilt, and scored five points^before State got her bearings. The
Purple and Gold, however, lightened its defensive and opened up
an offensive which took the St.
Lawrence five off their feet and
gave State a three-point lead. This
advantage did not change until
near the end of the half when St.
Lawrence spurted and tied the
score at 12 all. Cassavant broke
this deadlock in favor of State with
a long shot, but Weller came
through for the home team evening things up again. The score remained tied at 14 all until the end
o. the period.
The second half opened with
some fast floorwork. S,tate worked
up a three-point lead, but lost it
after about seven minutes play
when St. Lawrence forged ahead
by S points. Baker started a rally
for State when he dropped in a
clean basket from the middle of
the court. With the score 25 to
21 in favor of the home team,
Johnson was fouled while shooting, The goal was counted, and
Cassavant made good on the two
foul tries, tieing the score. Hathorn sent State to the front again
from the field. St Lawrence lied
again on a long shot and score remained at 27 all until the final
whistle. Towards the end of the
half Polt was fouled out on personals, and Dobris replaced him
at guard.
In the extra five minutes the fast
game of the night before, and the
speedy pace set by the St. Lawrence team had its effect. State's
defensive went to pieces, and the
home team was able to score seven
points in quick succession, The
best the Purple and Gold could do
was one foul shot,- and they were
forced to admit defeat by a count
of 34 to 27.
Weller and Barker were the big
guns for St. Lawrence, Cassavant and Hafhorn played a bang-up
game for State

Inauguration was the subject of
the final scene, The band, the
cabinet, dignified, as well as undignified friends, the old maid, and
the tease were all there. Even
Cox, though mentally deranged,
did his share by selling _" extra's."
During the parade the wife of the
President as befitting one of her
importance was drawn about hy
coach and four. The judge so impressed Harding that he not only
kissed the "Bible," but read his
favorite passages. The inaugural
speech was voted a great success,
but the crowd could say with Harding, "Darned, if I know, do you?"
The stunt committee included
Dorothy Dangremnnd, Grace Maguirc, Gladys ffayncr, Maybclle
Jochtnnscii, Adrian Johnson, and
Charles Reilly,
The committee -thanks the class
for its cooperation in making the
stunt a success.
WIRELESS CONCERT

to jazz. Under the expert manipulation of Mr. Long the set' was
tuned so that the high, clear notes
of Mme, Galli-C'urci, soprano, the
full rich tones of Emilio Dc Gorgorza, baritone, and the noisy conglomeration of sounds produced by
the Dixieland jazy. Band were
heard as distinctly as if the Victrola were in the room. One of the
operators announced each selection before it was given. The program was well balanced with
classical, semi-classical and popular
music.
After the concert was over, most
of those present waited till 10
o'clock to the get the correct time
signal from the navy station at
Arlington, Va. Following this the
reports of weather conditions along
the Atlantic coast were received.
A few college students who were
present decided to find the limit of
audibility of the signals. According to them the signals could be
plainly heard in the auditorium.
This fact is remarkable and shows
the rapid advance that has been
made along wireless lines since the
war.
An event of this sort is a novelty
to State College, but it is hoped
that more students will become interested. At future concerts there
should be a greater number of college people present to enjoy this
seeming miracle of science. Much
credit is due to Mr. Long and the
other members of the Physics Department for their enabling State
College to have a real wireless station of its own.
