Sophomores, Dean Pierce and
Myskania Agree On
Program
TO PENALIZE VIOLATORS
All "rough-house''1 stunts will be
eliminated from this year's "Gel-Wise"
initiation of (he freshman class, as a
result of a triple agreement reached
by the sophomore class, Myskania and
the college authorities, it was announced yesterday.
A program embodying sweeping
changes from that given last year by
the class of '27 for the class of '28 is
being worked out by a sophomore
committee.
The "(let Wise" meeting will he October 16 and all freshmen will be required
to attend, The freshmen will he divided
into fifteen groups of twenty each, Each
group will have a freshman captain
chosen by the sophomores. Each group
will be ropuirccl to present a stunt and
all stunts will be judged by the sophomore initiation committee. All stunts
must be suitable to the committee.
Any freshmen who do not participate,
or who in any other way do not enter
into the spirit of the program, will be
required to attend one of a scries of
special "penalty" meetings to he held at
later dales. At these they will be required lo perform stunts which will he
more in accordance with the initiation
of previous years.
The final program was determined
upon by the sophomore committee appointed by President Francis E. Griffiin
after several meetings, in which Dean
Anna E. Pierce, oilier college authorities
and the members of Myskania took part.
The "Get Wise" meeting last year was
the subject of much discussion, various
views having been offered as to the propriety and safety of sonic of the performances enforced on last year's freshmen.
Reports were current at the time that
several of (he freshmen fainted.
"We believe thai we have arrived at
a. satisfactory solution of the initiation
problem in Ibis plan," President Griffin
said. "Our idea is to conduct an initiation which will serve best the purpose
of giving the freshmen the proper attitude without going to extremes.

TIME TO ADVANCE
Today the News presents to the student
body the first scini-weekly publication
that State College has produced. Wc
present it as a sample—an humble
sample of what may be accomplished in
a semi-weekly, with the backing of the
student body, financially and morally.
Ten extra issues of the News—that
is semi-weekly publication during ten
of the thirty regular weeks of publication—will entail much additional labor
for the staff. It will also mean a larger
cost to the student body.
But the aim should justify both the
effort and the expense. Some day Stale
should have a semi-weekly. Seven years
ago there were those who freely prophesied that the "Stale College News"
would not live out its first month. With
ups and downs, it has survived to disprove
them.
The editors feel with President Brubacher that the time has come for experimentation with another innovation—a
semi-weekly.
There is always true cause for sorrow
when a teacher dies. When the teacher is one like Miss Cora Anne Steele
of the home economics faculty, that
sorrow may well become grief. A
scholar who knew her subject, a teacher who had caught the difficult art of
imparting her knowledge to others, a
friend to her students and to her colleagues, Miss Steele is one whom State
College will deeply miss.
Service in another field, but service
which was as valuable to State College, was rendered by Judge James
F. Tracey, the prominent jurist and
statesman,
whom death has removed
from s the board of trustees. Judge
Tracey accomplished much in a life
of service. Perhaps nothing he did
brought a benefit more lasting than
his work to further the project of new
buildings for State College,
