COME AND SING!
It has been decided to have a sing
in the student assembly on J a n u a r y
20. Everyone realizes that \vc certainly need to practise the college
s o n g s . If a little of the pep which
the students expend in foretelling
their sad fate after mid-years were
used now in singing there would be
a real sing in assembly.
There have been very few sings
this year and, as t h e s e a r e one of
the best parts of college life, college needs them. T h e y give everyone a feeling of c h e e r and good
humor.
SENIORS' FIRST DEFEAT
T h e last of the G, A. A. g a m e s
Scheduled between the seniors and

their two respective teams last
W e d n e s d a y afternoon,
I he seniors
led the scoring by two field baskets
almost
immediately
after
the
whistle blew. However, the sophom o r e s soon began to score, and al

by 8 lo -I.
T h e second half was for the most
p a r t a mere display if basketball
technique with both sides sleadil)
g a i n i n g points until the last two
m i n u t e s , when both teams burst
forth with whirl-wind vigor. Their
speed was so great thai the game
b e c a m e a continual h u m p i n g contest with each player in the other's
way. It may have been due to a
d i s a d v a n t a g e on the part of the
seniors in that one of their players
was practically ill from fatigue or
lo the fact that Billy I Iciiiemau is
again playing on the s o p h o m o r e

AMERICA VERSUS
PHILIPPINES
( F r o m a special interview with Air.
Isidoes Sanicl)
W e often wonder just how o u r
American c u s t o m s of college life
and activity appear to a person w h o
may have been accustomed lo soi iewhat different ways of doing t h i n g s .
Many times we have lo keep on
thinking without ever having l b chance lo find out But Mr. Isidoe.-,
Sanicl, a graduate of ihe University of the Philippines, has kindly
consented to tell us what he thinks
of our life as American college students.
Mr. Sanicl, after g r a d u a t i n g from
the University of the Philippines,
came to this country and -spent
some time visiting several of the
m o r e noted universities in t h e
United Stales, such as H a r v a r d ,
Columbia, University of Michigan,
and Chicago University. Later be
came to State College lo lake up
advanced work.
Al the p r e s e n t
tiim- he is also taking a course in
Library
Science
at
the
State
Library School.
D u r i n g the time
be has spent in these American colleges he has had ample o p p o r t u n ity to note the attitude of the college g r o u p .
According to him one of the o u t s t a n d i n g features of the university
life here is the emphasis placed on
tradition, In most of the larger
colleges ii is the basis or foundation
upon
which college activity is
built.
Here at Slate tradition is
mil observed as religiously as at
other colleges.
T h e universities
in the Philippines are c o m p a r a t i v e ly new and so lack ancient t r a d i tion. But at the present lime this
is being built up after the American
plan.
American athletics are practically
the same as those on the Philippine Islands, because the latter
forms arc patterned after the former. T h e only big difference is
that the Filipinos have no Rugby
football, but in its place they substitute association football or soc'Conlinued on page 4

UNWRITTEN LAW
Do you remember, 3'ou upperclassmen and sophomores, that the
State College student body unanimously voted to dispense with
studying, knitting, writing, and so
on in chapel? 11 you don't recall
it, perhaps it would he well to remind you!
.Also the freshmen
should he interested in knowing
just wdiat happened at that time.
The following is a clipping from
a "News" of January 13, 1921:
"Another subject which was
brought up in assembly was that
a great many students study, write,
or knit during chapel. Marjorie
Potter suggested that the student
body should pass a resolution
against this practise. This suggestion was followed and hereafter
all work of every kind will be left
outside."
On the following issue of January 20, 1921, an editorial, of which
this is a part, appeared:
"I low good it seemed to have
everyone vote in favor of the
motion that was brought up in
assembly two weeks ago—namely,
that mi one should bring books,
lunches, etc., to chapel. Hut how
much better it seemed
to have this
vision reali/.ed \ r o one forgot, but
everyone came empty handed, with
nothing to do but give his best attention to what was going on."
Do you think that anyone could
truthfully write such an editorial
at the present time? Perhaps the
motion wasn't stated in so many
words, but even if it wasn't, it's
supposed to be an unwritten law
that this custom is lasting and not
one that has to be voted upon annually.
Have you been doing
YOUR best to make this a permanent thing?
WAKE UP *24
What a bunch of students we
have become. We admit it's a good
thing—with prospects of the coming two weeks before us, But when
those two weeks are over, let's get
back to being a regular college,
besides being students. Every regular college has a freshman class
at least half subdued before this
time of the year. Alas, are. the
sophomores so busy with the
science of the soul that they cannot attend to this important part
of their business? Their sister class
believes '24 can do its duty well if
it will take the energy. We most
certainly do not desire 'hair-pulling
mobs, hut we do hope to sec college traditions kept and freshman
rules obeyed. And where is the
courtesy due the seniors from the
freshmen? it is impossible now
for a senior to plow through the
mass of freshmen who stand in the
way of lockers. And are the freshmen obeying rules? Watch their
violations. Of course they should
be ashamed of not keeping Stale's
traditions, hut they must he taught
what a shame it is.
The sophomores are tlhe acknowledged preservers of college
tradition and freshman rules, and
this fact 'has always been lived up
to by other classes. Wake up, '24;
your sister, '22, calls you. Make
'22 proud of you.
A Senior.
ABOUT T H A T PRIZE
Do you want a free Pedagogue?
Why not write out that clever joke
you heard in class yesterday—the
one your favorite professor sprang
for tile first time—and baud it In
some member of the Pedagogue
hoard/
A free copy is being
offered to the student who submit;
the best joke on a member of the
faculty, Another copy will .he given as a prize for the host juke on
any student. We ask only one
thing, that these jokes be original.
No jokes re-arranged from other
college periodicals will be accepted.
This is a splendid chance for the
right person. Is that you?
EXAMS AND EDUCATION
Do you know the girl (or boy)
wlho rushes around a week before
exams, or even a day before, rattling off phrases of information us
fast as she can talk, and begging
every other person she meets to
tell her something about this or
that subject? There are quite a
number of them around State Col
lege—just watch out for them this
week! Do you ever wonder how
much tihey really dp know? .Anyone would think that to them the
chief aim and object of education
was to cram as much as possible
into one set of brains in order to
supply material for an examination.
If anything is learned that is not
asked for, it is accounted as a
product of wasted energy. What
an awful attitude this is to take
toward education
and examinations! Everything we learn is a
basis for our future ideas and progress in life; we can never know
too much. If we learned the required lessons suggested by our instructors, there would be no need
or desire to rush wildly about at
the last moment attempting to get
enough knowledge to pass an exam.
Nave you ever noticed that the
people wdio have this habitarethoi.se
whose favorite motto seems to be
"Ignorance is bliss"?

FLEET
A L e g e n d o f 1935
By Cora Hardy Jarrett
Open tihe door of their kennels,
And whistle them forth to die,
Tlie silent old sea-mastiffs
Dark in their docks that lie.
T h e r e ' s many a seaman's bosom
Will heave with a sobbing breath
W h e n the g i a n t g r a y .sea-mastiffs
Steam out to drink their death.
So we called to (heir keepers,
And we stood and watched them
drown;
Dogged and dour and silent.
O u r (logs of the sea went down,
Died for a word ami vision,
While (the wise ones prattled of
peace,
And the keen ones sketched new
dreadnoughts
W h e n the ten y e a r s ' truce should
cease,
H e a r t s of men, ye are shifting
As the shifting s a n d that blows,
But the deep-drowned 'heart of iron
Is steadfast to wdiat it k n o w s ;
I lad still a watch to keep
Against the day of new-born fray,
Shaking the peaceful deep.
W h e n the licet went steaming seaward,
And the other fleet drew in,
T w o grim half-moons of battle
In a m o r n i n g twilight thin,
Ere ever a gun had spoken,
Men heard a seaman shout,
And—t'ho.-e gray points that prick
the wave,
Are they m a s t s and funnels, or do
we rave?
They rise, they loom—from its
resting-grave
The P h a n t o m Fleet rides out!
Up from the floor of ocean,
Gray with her ancient slime,
D r i p p i n g arose the dreadnoughts,
T h e monsters of their time,
Rolling brine from their scuppers,
Rocked by an unseen swell,
T h e y bailed the y o u n g e r squadrons,
I'oeiuan anil friend as well.
" W e bowed our heads to the ocean,
W e drank her bitter brine;
We went to our death uncoiupiered,
Mighty sihips of the line;
We had carried our lives like banners,
But gladly we laid them down,
AH for a word and a vision
And an end that Peace should
crown.
" W i l l ye m a k e of us a mocking?
Shall we have died for naught,
W h e n we veiled our heads with the
waters
A n d gave up the light unfouglit?
W e are the P h a n t o m Squadron
With the barnacles on our rails,
And when we rise to battle,
By God, ye shall turn your tails!"

T h e w k e ones tell of parleys
By which the light was stayed,
But ask the frightened gunners
T h a t clung to the rails and
prayed!
Courage was there, and guns to
spare,
For foes of m o r t a l breath,
But who can fight with a squadron
T h a t (has broken the doors of
death?
So one fleet faded eastward,
And one licet faded west,
And the wise ones told the story
In the words that pleased them
best;
But the seamen know—and they
tell it s o —
T h a t when men's hearts were hot.
T h e old sea-dogs the danger heard,
T h e drowned sea-mastiffs waked
and stirred,
And rose to war for the warrior's
word
And the Peace that men forgot.

cer. In the United States the interest in the game is more intense.
It seems to be an American characteristic to forget everything else in
the absorbing excitement of the
game.
In addition to this the
American college girl seems to
possess more enthusiain at an athletic event than do their -sisters in
the Philippines. In the latter place
no girl without American training
would think of cheering at a game.
Mr. Saniel finds the American
college professor totally different
from the old fashioned native professor of his own islands.
Our
faculty are friendly and always
ready to help in all social functions
and athletic contests. They maintain a very cordial relationship with
tlie student body. A Filipino professor would not think of doing
such things. T o Jiim it would be
beneath his dignity to mingle with
the s t u d e n t s in any way.
As a result of tin's the American
student does not seem to have the
same serious attitude toward scholastic work. Social functions play
an extremely large role in college
life. T h e thing which Mr. Saniel
points out as a s u m m a r y of the
whole subject is the fact that the
American college is the model after
which those in the Philippines arc
taken. T h e faculty is largely composed of Americans o r A m e r i c a
trained men. T h e entire w o r k i n g
plan is modelled after our own
system here in the United States.
PROPAGANDA
Dr. Charles Upson Clark spoke
in assembly Friday on " H o w P r o paganda W o r k s , " Because of his
splendid training both at h o m e and
abroad and his interesting c o s m o politan experiences, he was able to
give to the students a very entertaining and instructive lecture.
of affairs <uul returned to him. This
s o r t of thing, though seemingly insignificant, produces the desired
effect.
Distorted tales are those which
m a y m o s t easily deceive us even
wiuh pictures, as in the case of an
account of a Bulgarian atrocity
against a Grecian bishop, T h e facts
were t h a t it was a Grecian atrocity
the details of which w e r e reversed
and a u g m e n t e d by a Grecian correspondent who went so far as manufacturing
and
photographing
a
corpse of the bishop, who was nowhere near the scene of action.
A n o t h e r case of deliberate lies
was that of the I liiiigarians who
whined about the Rumanian devastation of their c o u n t r y when all over
were signs of a b u n d a n t luxury.
So steeped in the untrue stories,
heard of the Rumanians, were people in foreign countries, that even
after visible proof of their falseness
they continued to believe the lies.
Speaking of present situations
whioh give rise to p r o p a g a n d a , Dr.
Clark referred to the 'situation in
T r a n s y l v a n i a , which, by the peace
treaty, was given to
Rumania.
T h e protest of H u n g a r i a n bishops
against t h e natural d e m a n d s of the
victor was printed in an American
magazine, although it was but a
distorted form of p r o p a g a n d a .
A s an e x a m p l e of true p r o p a g a n d a
Dr. Clark told of a Rumanian boy
of his own acquaintance who suffered m u c h in obtaining an education because of the
Hungarian
strictness, and vVhosc family was
severely persecuted in lime of war
for no reason whatsoever.
Having warned us of what to look
for in the stories we hear, he concluded by saying that even when
they are authenticated by photog r a p h s we should not accept them
verbatim.
