Her topic was a discussion of the workings of our state and national governments. She was sponsored by the Lounge committee and Miss Helen Moreland, dean of students.. Mrs. Poletti talked informally for about a half hour, and then entertained questions from the students present. She spent some time in reviewing briefly the meaning of the word, democracy. She then explained the workings of our state legislature, and showed a copy of the legislative index, a booklet published weekly, showing current legislation. Some of her talk was centered around pressure groups, and their influence in legislatures.

The entire student body is eligible to vote, in order to choose the "member of the faculty who has done the most to stimulate intellectual life at State College." Students will name their first, second, and third choices, and the votes will be tallied by the weighted ballot method. The faculty member having the largest vote Will be awarded the Pi Gamma Mu Citation on Moving-up day by Thomas Laverne, '39. This will be made an annual Moving-up day occurrence.

These facts are of significance, to be sure, but All we can do is to attempt to make up for that then the complete report was, stated in so many words, "It can be done. We offer the following oversight. The student body made the first move resolution . . ." Here is where our analogy holds in the right direction. It was heartening to see a good. We were glad to hear the favorable report sophisticated student body, hardened to student of the committee, but we maintain that they gave talent of all kinds, rise to its feet spontaneously in us no indication as to how the feat could be ac- tribute to the orchestra.

Jottings of An Idiot Concert-ed Action Forum Approves Yearbook Plan Panel Group Will Conduct Discussion with Y.W.C.A.; W e e d to Be H e a d At its renewed session on Tuesday, May 9, the Political Forum approved the revised constitution as submitted by Sadie Flax, '40, who represented the Constitution Revision committee. Among the new provisions in the constitution is that clause which requires all committee reports to be submitted to the Forum for action no later than one month after the committee has been formed. Pass Resolutions Two resolutions were reported from committees and passed. Louise Hessney, '40, read the report of the Pedagogue committee, and the Forum passed in favor of making the Pedagogue a student publication and adding one dollar to the student tax to take care of the expense. After a heated discussion in which Michael Walko, Mary Margaret Pappa, seniors, and Fred Weed, '40, played major roles, the Forum passed in favor of the following resolution as reported to the Forum by Mary Margaret Pappa, chairman: "Resolved: That this forum go on record as favoring the government ownership and operation of railroads in the United States." Panel Discussion On Wednesday evening, from 8:00 to 11:00 o'clock in the Lounge of Richardson hall, the Forum panel group will conduct a discussion panel with the Y.W.C.A. industrial group on the subject of "Housing." Betty Fallon, '39, co-director of the panel group, Is in charge of the panel. Robert Cogger, speaker, announced that the Forum's calendar for its next and last regular meeting includes committee reports on the Immigration Law, Reciprocal Trade Agreements, and the N.L.R.B. At its session on May 2, the following officers were elected for the year 1939-1940: speaker, Fred Weed, '40; clerk, Paul Grattan, '41; and treasurer, Norman De Neef, '40. State of Affairs Kampus Kapers Arnold Bennett wrote a book called How to Live on Twenty-four Hours a Day. We repeat: how? May is uncomfortably close to June, and there doesn't seem to be time enough to do all that must be done. Friday is the time for the girl friend to show the boy friend what a date should be. We're not quite sure about the band, though reports are favorable. The bids are attractive, the decorations decorative, and we hope the evening fair and warmer. And that isn't all—the gals don't do things half-way. To complete the weekend the sorority houses will be decked out for house formals on Saturday night. The usual migration from house to house is anticipated. (Be sure the skeletons are well hidden, girls). On our way to Washington Park the other day via Draper and the front steps we noticed a class sitting on the steps in front of the library. Continuing on our way we found another class in front of Page. Our taste in professors runs to the kind who knows a nice day when he sees it. Who cares about the ants? The International Relations club did a nice piece of work—not only in advertising the Dug-out dinner, but in presenting a novel idea with a purpose behind it. This week, too, the Cradle Song posters, which are out to win a prize, have been worth looking at. In a list of important State college events, 1938-39, surely toward the top would be the organization of the State College Symphony orchestra. Pearlman and Hirsch, the conductors, and the whole orchestra deserved the spontaneous rising vote of appreciation they received. It was certainly an acknowledgment of talent and effort; but more than that, could it have been perhaps a realization that outside of the narrow ready-made world we think important there are others initiating worth-while things without benefit of the public eye?

Charles , Betty Clf William i Joseph B Division Photos Unusual Camera Studies Most popular of all photographic subjects among the collegiate amateurs of the nation ate scenes of nature, for this division in our special contest had the greatest number of entries. The general excellence of the photos submitted made the task of the judges of this division particularly difficult. If space had been available, this issue would have contained almost three times the number of scenic pictures; for that large number of almost equal high quality were in the semi-finals division in the judging. In the three photos on this page we present the final selections, photos which we believe pay high compliments to the ability of college photographers to beautifully and accurately record the scenic wonders of the world about us. Many are the elements considered in judging pictorial photographs, but chief qualities considered are composition, technical excellence. Most unusual are the results obtained when the photographer sets out to create his own pictorial subjects without relying on the set limitations of an individual or a scene. With an opportunity to form his own compositions, to regulate his lighting, to control movement and form, the photographer gains results that are always interesting and usually technically perfect. Second most popular division in the Collegiate Digest competition, the still life section winners on this page reveal again the important place the student and faculty amateurs have attained in the ranks of the nonprofessional photographers. The chess picture is an excellent example of a composition that has been formed and lighted in such a manner that a perfectly inanimate scene assumes life and brilliance. The remarkably sharp picture of the sleeping cat is one of the most photographically perfect photos entered. The water lily print is an excellent example of an outdoor still life creation. A l l in all, these three photos accurately reflect the range of interest that is obtainable in still life photography. We, State R( lesson vvi say.

The frosh outplayed the sophs and had them backed well into their own territory a large part of the game. They displayed a powerful attack with Scott's passing and Howie Anderson's running constant threats. The game will be replayed this afternoon on the campus in front of Page hall, the game starting at 3:30 o'clock At the M.A.A.-W.A.A. play day the freshmen and sophomores split honors. Behind "Bobby Selfert's" very effective pitching, the frosh swept into a 12 to 0 victory. The sophomore women won 25 to 21, thus balancing the points which the men of '41 lost.
