Football Men Go To
Worcester Today
State College will open its 1924 football
season
tomorrow
afternoon
against the strong Worcester Tech
team at Worcester, Mass. The team
will leave Albany this afternoon,
During the past weeks, great strides
have been made by the fooball squad.
Hard luck, though, came during this
period of strenuous play. Hornung
was laid up with a severe case of tonsilitis, and will be unable to attend
practice for at least three weeks.
Campbell, whose knee was injured during last year's football season, injured
the same knee during the first scrimmage this season, thus preventing his
playing any more this year. Another
reverse in fortune came when Perry,
a reliable scrub, had his nose broken,
and his eye badly damaged.

Worcester Tech will undoubtedly
present stiff opposition to our men, in
fact this game should come later in
the season. However, the lighting
spirit is running high and strong in
the squad, with every man trying hard
to get in condition in order to give the
Worcester team a real battle. After
one or two games the men will probably be in much better form. It will
require a few games in order to get
going and to smooth out some of the
rough spots. The line up against
Worcester Tech will probably be as
follows:
Graham, left end; Gainor, left tackle;
Haynes, left guard; Roberts, center;
Jensen, right guard; Crawford, right
tackle; Donnely, right end; Crane,
quarter back; Sage, right half back;
Johnson, left half back; Kuczynski,
full back.
Cantwcll, Clarke, Nephew, Juckett,
Dobris, and Kershaw will no doubt
have an opportunity to enter the game
before the finish.

Student Tax Less,
Record Budget Levy
To Be Begun Soon
State College's record student budget of $10,910, adopted almost unanimously last Friday, will soon be
collected by the finance board which,
under the leadership of Professor C.
A. Hidley, faculty treasurer, prepared
it. The tax will be eleven dollars, one
dollar less than last year.
The budget calls for increased allotments for the infirmary fund from
$1,800 to $2,000, for the News from
$1,850 to $1,950 and a smaller increase
for the freshmen " bible." Its total is
$10,910 contrasted with $10,555 last
year.
The increase in infirmary fund is in
line with the policy of keeping two
dollars in the fund for every student
in college. Increased registration also
explains the increase for the "bible."
The College News will expend the
additional $100 in raising the general
standard of the paper and more efficient equipment for the News office.
The budget was adopted as a whole
with little opposition.
Collection of the budget will be begun next week and the board will
make a determined effort to have
everyone in college paid up before
Thanksgiving vacation. This year,
books will be issued, each with sixty
tickets, instead of the usual cards.
The tickets are numbered and one will
be detached for each event attended.
" The Finance Board is well satisfied with the success of this year's
budget," Mr. Hidley said, when informed on his return from Niagara
Falls it had been adopted as whole.
" We have been able to cut a dollar
from the tax, making it eleven this
year," he added, " The budget's total
is only slightly larger. If we arc to
operate this year in a businesslike way
and with least confusion and delay,
we must levy the budget immediately.
We will seek student co-operation in
getting subscriptions in quickly,"
Political Campaign

Democratic students will make the
new Students' Republican Club fight
for every vote, it was announced this
week by leaders who arc rushing arrangements for a counter campaign to
block the work of the Coolidge supporters.
The political situation here, brought
suddenly and startingly into light last
Friday when chapel was thrown into
turmoils over the Democratic endorsement resolutions, this week developed
rapidly.
Yesterday it gave every
promise of a campaign that will engross student interest until election.
An emphatic statement was issued
by Jerome H. Walker, '25, that the
overwhelming majority by which his
resolution was defeated is a false inC. A. Hidley, treasurer of finance dication of Democratic strength here.

An imposing array of talent, headed
by John Farrar, editor of the Bookman, noted dramatist, dramatic critic,
and motion picture reviewer for the
Ladies Home Journal, will be brought
to State College this year, if arrangements rapidly being completed by the
Dramatic and Art Association are
successful, it was announced yesterday.
Miss Olga Hempel, secretary of the
Dramatic and Art Council, who is conducting correspondence, said there is
a good chance of getting Mr. Farrar
for a lecture under college auspices.
An exhibit of genuine oil paintings,
the work of an old master, is also
being sought as another attraction.
A showing of etchings by Amendus
is likewise included on the tentative
program, Miss Hempel said.

THREE SPECIAL DEGREES
Substitution of three specialized bachelor's degrees in science, those in home
economics, commerce, and education for
the straight science degree was one of
the more important changes inaugurated
this year by the administration. The
move is in line with the present day
trend in the more progressive colleges in
the east, according to faculty members.
