TO — AND BY — JUNIORS

With this briefest of apologies, the Junior Board
Presents this Junior Issue of the News to the junior
class and to State College, It is not much of a gift:
more pages and pictures than usual there are, and
some green ink also, but it is another part of Junior
Week, Prom will be here a week from tonight,
junior luncheon a week from tomorrow; shouting
in advance of these welcome visitors run the cight
junior editors,

STATE COLLEGE TOMORROW

State College's long fight for new buildings is
won. Governor Smith has asked that $850,000 be
given the College this winter. Legislative leaders
have conferred and agreed,

So ends the tedious prologue to the drama of Pro-
gress which State College will now play, The
recent state bond isstie makes all the money available
now. Nineteen twenty-eight will sce the college's
plant doubled in President Brubacher prophe-
sics that in 1931, the student body will total 1,500,

far cry it is from the twenty-nine students of
1844! A far cry are the six large buildings from
the three dingy rooms where State College was born,
But in the struggle to win them is the story of the
College's cighty-two years, Before any advance was
made, there were doubters to convince, scoffers to
silence, opposition to overcome, Those who said
“it couldn't be done” will now see it done, State
College moves toward top place in teacher training
in America,

A DREAM COMES TRUE

Second only to the Milne Science Hall in the vision
of the future stands the Alumni Residence Hall, The
dormitory for 400 women students is today more
than a dream. It is a fact. True, all the money to
build it has not been wathered, But $250,000 more
than was pledged at this date last year is now sub-
scribed. While the Knockers argued “it couldn't be
done,” the Workers prnctuated their words of hope
with the dollar-sign of fact.

The residence hall will be more than a place to ea!
and sleep, It will be a colleze social center, Its
benefits to students are incalculable, Tt will be 9
worthy mate for the state’s gift of buildings.

Seniors, juniors, sophomores, mary classes now
gone on have proved their faith with their dollars
Sometime the freshmen will add their share Mean
while, the future of the dormitory is brighter thay
ever and realization is nearer.

SPONGES

The world has a name for persons who make a
habit of letting others pay their bills, It calls them
“sponges.” It is a good word, A sponee soaks
into itself the good in what is near it. In return it
gives nothing.

Most college students, heing adolescents, have a
particular horror of being called “sponges.” As the
most model husband would rather be thought a rake
than a prig, so most young men and women prefer
the title spend-thrift to tichtwad.

Few persons expect their friends to buy their
movie tickets or their reading matter or to pay their
hospital bills if they fall sick, That would be
Sponging, But the records of the student finance
board reveal that many students do expect the
rest of the college to pay their dollar towards the
infirmary-fund; to donate their share of the ex-
Penses at plays, concerts and basketball games
to dig down for their copies of the News and the
Quartérly and the Frosh Bible and the College
Directory. a

What name do these students give themselves?

Epitor tHe News:

The other night we were chinning and Robinson
(26), began his harangue against our cut system
(‘or lack-of-system” as he called it), I thought
you might be interested, par.

“Humph, this cut system—” he growled, lighting
the seventh cigarette and sliding even farther down
in his chair. . “{ tell you it's a dirty shame. “State

No, Johnson, look at it fairly; it's the bunk. Why,
man alive, it's—it's out of date—it's paternalistic, and
—itid it's antagonistic to the very aims of a college
course." He smoked a minute, getting ready to go
off on a tangent railing at something else, I prodded
him gently back to the issue he had begun.

“What do I mean? Look-a here, id you come to
this place to be told just where to put your rubbers,
just what clothes to wear, and how to part your
hair? No! Neither did you come to be told you

and find that they have signs for us not to walk
anywhere except on the floor, and to get to class at
