Dr. Armstrong made three Chapel
addresses to the students at the opening of the College year.
In the first address he took
up the Entrance Requirements and
the Required Standards of College
Work and spoke in part as follows:
"There has been much said about
the admission requirements for Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges. I
think you are all familiar with the requirements. This year it is necessary
for a new applicant to have ranked
in the upper-half of his high school
class at graduation. It was possible
for some who did not rank in the upper-half to take certain tests here
and, if passed successfully, in that
way be admitted to the College. It
was pleasing to us to learn as we
went along that nearly all the applicants we had this year for admission
to the College were in the upper-rhalf
of their high school classes. We have
enrolled this year many students who
ranked nrst in their classes at high
school and that promises a lot for the
gisde of work which they will be able
to do here and the quality of teacher
that we shall be able to send out from
here. Then there was another limitation on this enrollment, that we could
not admit more students to the College than would make our enrollment

regulation was then changed by the
State Superintendent to read that we

H. S. T. C's Armistice Day program,
in which talks, music and poetry were
pleasingly mingled.
At ten forty-five the students assembled in the auditorium, where Mr.
Ira Fleming, who is an ex-service
man, opened the service by reading
the Scripture. At two minutes before
eleven o'clock everyone stood, and
observed a two-minute period of silence in respect to those who gave
their lives in the World War.
In a group of selected poems, including "Road Refugees," "Counter
Attack," "Does it Matter" and "A
Challenge from the Dead," Miss
Mabel-Louise Arey gave a vivid picture of the horrors of war. Each poem
made everyone present realize a little
more fully the hardships and the price
our boys paid "Over There."
Stirring patriotic days of 1914
were again relived when Mr. George
Lehman sang "The Americans Come."
In conclusion, Mr. Samuel Smith,
another of our ex-service men, spoke
on the World War, showing that unemployment, prohibition and widespread graft are the aftermath of the
War.
