"The freshmen played a great
game. "I still think the only trouble
with me was that Falle was guarding me," said "Billie" Heineman,
when asked about the senior-freshman basketball game, played Thursday, January 10. The game, though
a senior victory, showed fine guarding and good team work on the part
of the freshmen. The only casualty
of the game was in the first quarter,
when Hartmann, the freshman center, lost a front tooth through a collision with a sharp elbow.

UNANIMOUSLY MADE
BASEBALL CAPTAIN
TEAM FOR SEASON
Lyle Roberts has been elected captain of the football team for next
season by the members of the varsity
football squad. He defeated Burton
Sage, one of this year's stars. Roberts, for the last three years, has
played football for State. He has
been a consistent star and last season was at right end for the college.
He will succeed Edmund Crane,
this year's captain and the vice-president of the Student Association, who
will complete a successful period of
leadership for State when he hands
over the reigns to Captain-elect
Roberts.
Both men are juniors and members
of Kappa Delta Rho fraternity.
The varsity men whose service this
fall entitled them to vote for captain
and whose names were announced by
Coach Wegner, were: Bader, Beaver,
Caton, Crane, Crawford,
Davis,
Bentley, Cantwell. Donnelly, Gardner, Gilchrist, Hayes, Lake, O'Brien,
Roberts, Sago and J. Smith.
The election must have the official
approval of the Athletic Council to
become final.
FRESHMEN AWAIT
MYSKANIA'S DECISION
AFTER VIOLATION OF
COLLEGE TRADITION
The freshman class at a meeting
Monday noon voted to defer action
regarding their violation of a college
tradition until they had received official notification from Myskania concorning this. It is alleged that the
freshmen as a body left chapel in
advance of the upper classmen last
Friday.
Elmer Stahlman of Nivervillc, a
junior, was the unanimous choice of
the varsity baseball players of
State College for the position of captain of the college nine for this season. He was elected Wednesday afternoon.
Stahlman will succeed John Cassarette, '23, who was last year prevented
from playing by an injury sustained
early in the season. Last year's captain was a pitcher, and the downriver boy holds down the second sack.
He is a member of Kappa Delta Rho
fraternity.
Baseball mentors are at present
working on State's schedule for the
coming season. Part of the games
are already booked, and it is hoped
to arrange a New England trip for
the squad. Practice will start during
the last of March and the openingtilt of the year will probably come
a month later.
SENIOR STUDENT
FOUND GUILTY OF
STEALING CHICKENS
Convicted of stealing chickens.
Miles Pollock, a senior student at
State College, today awaits punishment at the hands of His Honor,
Judge Hutchinson, of the faculty.
Pollock, well-known about college
for his abundant hair, was arrested
last week and brought before a court
composed of the Government 2 class.
Hi's trial took three days, and the
court room was daily crowded with
curious spectators, drawn there by
news of the sensational disclosures
being made by the witnesses.
Coach Wegner, acting as District
Attorney, pressed the case against
Pollock, and James E. Smith defended
him,

MEANING PEACE PLAN
AND WORLD PEACE
P e a c e is a Possession, A State of Mind
D e a t h of King C a r e To Be C e l e b r a t e d
The most mysterious miracle man
who visits State College every year
will make his appearance this season
on Thursday evening, January 31, in
the Gymnasium.
For the benefit of the freshmen,
who have not yet made his acquaintance, a more detailed account of the
wonders performed will be necessary
In one sense examinations and this
miracle man and his remedies are
like the smallpox epidemic and vaccination, the only differncc being that
the wonderful miracles performed are
not forced upon students. But the
one who does not gladly accept them
is very, very foolish indeed
There will be a College Sing and
a parade to bury Old King Care.
Each class is preparing a stunt which
will contribute to one big sequence.
Members of the four classes are being appointed on various committees
by the respective class presidents.
Appropriate refreshments will be
served.
Every one out on January 31 and
let the miracle man cure all "blues."

Professor Hidlcy explained the
meaning of Edward Bok's Peace
Award to the freshmen in History
lecture. "A great many people have
complained that there was nothing
new in this peace plan," said Professor Hidley.
"They have also
maintained that all the plans submitted could not be read in so short a
time by the men serving as judges.
These are only the potty views of
narrow-minded people. The whole
world needs to know that peace cannot be achieved thru enforcement, it
cannot be accomplished thru a police
force. Peace is a possession, a state
of mind; there will be no peace until
every individual has this state of
mind. 'We shall have peace when
we will have peace,' is the meaning
of the peace plan and the essence
of world peace. This plan has set
forth a goal and has given peace wide
publicity, In conclusion, I suggest a
set of international laws by which
nations can line together in peace.
General Grant said, "Let us have
peace." The Bok Peace Plan said,
'We shall have peace when we will
have peace.' "

PATRIOTISM AND COLLEGE
SPIRIT
What is Patriotism? Is it singing
the Star Spangled Banner? Is it
waving the Flag? Is it talking about
tho superiority of our country over
others, and condemning all who do
not talk as loud and in the same manner as we do? No! It is a love for
our country which will permit us to
see her faults but will cause us to devote our energies, not in defending
her faults, but rather in correcting
them.
What is College Spirit? Is it being able to repeat word for word our
college songs? Is it a bitter denunciation of all students who do not
think as wo do about ahletics, student
regulations, and other matters pertaining to our school life? Rather
is it a sense of justice which will
cause us to realize that wo have received much from our Alma Mater,
and that we owe in return a high
measure of respect and fidelity. It
will cause us to refrain from continual complaints, and will limit our
criticism to the type that is constructive, and which will help our college
to attain her rightful place as a
lender in education.

THREE ONE ACT
PLAYS DEMONSTRATED
VERSITALITY OF
DRAMATICS CLASS
Hair-raising thrills, anxious suspense, and delightful humor were
served up to the students and their
friends last Saturday evening by the
elementary Dramatics class.
The first surprise came after the
opening numbers by the orchestra,
when the curtain rose on the underground temple whose realness was
testified by the shudders of the audience. The innocence of the dainty
queen, the suspicion of the princes,
and the awe-inspiring outpouring of
the Nile in "The Queen's Enemies,"
made one of the most difficult stage
productions of a State College Dramatics class an oU'ectivo success.
No greater contrast could be found
between two characters than between
"Sal"
and "Minnie", and no two
persons could have been found to
play the parts more skillfully. Margaret Eaton will always bo the worldly-wise sophisticated "vamp" to State
College students, and Harriet Barms,
can never be other than the sweet,
dreamy "Columbine."
The advance notices of Mr. Van
Kleeck's first appearance on the
American stage were certainly not
over rated, nor was the latest of Mr.
Vines' many appeai'ances any disappointment. Edith Higgins as Margaret Crawshaw was indeed a "good
wife" and Marion Bessette as "Viola"
made a charming English maiden,
worthy of a better name than "Wurzel-Flummery." Though Mr. Reidy's
first appearance was rather startling
his exit was all that could be desired of even a budding playwright.
Credit is due Miss Futterer, who
directed those plays, and to those
who took part in them and the committee workers who managed the unseen mechanics.

SCORE IS—3 IN FAVOR OF
JUNIORS
If no personal fouls are culled in
a game of basketball, either the playing is slow, or unusually self-controlled, or exceptionally well trained. In
the game, of January 9th, in which
the juniors outscorod the sophomores
J 5-3, no personal fouls were recorded.
To discover what is responsible for
this condition, the next G, A. A. interclass games should be well supported. Judging from the score, the
sophomores played a cautious game
against well-trained juniors.

The Household Design Class have
an opportunity to prove the unifying
influence of puinti plus enamel on
furniture. The subjects for their
work were the pieces of a bedroom
set belonging to the Home Management House. The set included an
iron bed with the white enamel badly
chipped, on oak table, a plain pine
chair and a varnished pine bureau
and mirror.
The reftnlahed furniture is now a
harmonious set in ivory enamel. This
set is being used in the Home Management House, antl each of the girls
who partook in its renovation will enjoy the use of It sometime during the
year. These girls realize how much
can be done after removing all old
paint, with three under coats of white
paint and two top coats of ivory
enamel.
The efforts of the class were not
limited to painting as a finish. The
value of wood stains was shown in
the rejuvenation of a wicker armchair. Thru constant usage, one arm
of the chair was broken, and the
chintz, badly worn. Some inquiries
were made to get the chair arm
mended by a professional. But it
was discovered that professional chair
makersi will make chairs, and not
mend them. It behooved the class to
solve that problem, which they did
by using reeds of the type for basketry. The weave of the chair was
copied in replacing the missing reeds.
The chair then u'ot a lye hath to
remove all traces of the former stain.
This was followed by a wood stain,
which is purchased all ready to use
and this stain does not require a top
ccat of shellac. The selection for
the chair cushion and back of a suitable chintz was made with the usual
problems of the chair and room considered. Elementary practice in upholstering was gotten in the making
of this cushion and back.
