ANNUAL GYM MEET MARCH 28 COLLEGE TIMES ANNUAL ; STUNT NITE APRIL 25 State Teachers College, Lock Haven, Penna. Vol. 11 Son of Educator Dies; Was Former Student in School Father Was First Principal of the Central State Normal School The affectionate associations of yeavs weve deeply stirred for many people at the College when word was received of the death of Edgav Lovett Raub on Feb. 28, 1934, at Needham, Massachusetts. Although for many yeavs Mr. Raub had been connected with the John A. Andrew School Distvict, South Boston, his name, like that of his father. Dr. A. N. Raub, has been familiar and esteemed in Lock Haven. It was Dv. Raub who was chiefly vesponsible for the founding of our college and who became its first principal. His son, upon his graduation fvom the Lock Haven Novmal School at the age of fifteen, later took a post-graduate course in science for three yeavs, and then became a member of the faculty. After filling vavious teaching posts in Delawave and New Jersey, Mr. Raub went to Massachusetts where he studied and was teaching at the time of his death. He was the mastev of the John A. Andvew school district. It was not in formal education alone, however, that Mr. Raub was eminent. His musical ability was outstanding and that talent shone with use in various musical organizations, whch he directed and inspired. Individual pupils of promise were discovered and encouraged, sometimes (Continued on page 2) Spring Baseball Season Opens Baseball, as in previous years, will become a major sport when the weather permits. The more enthusiastic players are practicing daily in the gym, loo.sening up tight muscles in the hope that they will be well-cond'tioned when the season veally starts. Coach Kaiser is not concerned so much with a champion team this spring as he is interested in building up a powerful nine fov next year. Bleyomsbuvg is the only scheduled club to date, but theve will probably be games with teams fvom Indiana, Mansfield, and State College before the season closes. The evev faithful Max Cook will again manage the team as he has so successfully done in the past two years. For hurlers Coach Kaiser can look to Jim Brooks, Harry Lingle, and Bob Sholly. On the veceiving end pvospects are Lucas, Obevheim, and Lingenfelter. The reme.ining positions will be selected fvom veterans Hamberger, Dressier, Moon, Buchanan, and the new freshmen. The vesponse to the coach's call for candidates has been slow, but it is expected that move mon will don uniforms next week. TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1934 WHEN WILL THE MON. STERS MEET?

SON OF EDUCATOR DIES; W A S FORMER STUDENT IN SCHOOL (Continued from page 1) to the point of supplying funds to defray expenses where there was no other way for these lads of parts to continue their training. History and niathematics were illuminated b,v his store of knowledge and his brilliant personality which irradiated the subject matter. His wise recognition of the place of sports made him a pioneer in intraschool and intra-mural activities, making them familiar to his students years before organized play was generally adopted for schools. Those at our own college who knew and loved Mr. Raub will no doubt recognize in the following poem found in his handwriting in his oflSce desk the same qualities of character and pevsonality which endeared him to them in his life here so many years ago. For those of us who did not know him except in name, the poem stands as eloquent tribute to the man's philosophy and a challenge for students expecting to devote themselves to the profession which Mr. Raub adorned with his leavning and quickened with his life: To gvow a little wisev evevy day. To school my mind and body to obey To keep my inner life both clean and stvong. To fvee my life fvom guile, my hand fvom wrong. To shut the door on hate and scorn and pride. To open it, and leave the windows wide To meet with cheerful heart what come.=; to me, To turn life's discords into harmony. To shave some weavy worker's heavy load. To point some straying comrade to the road. To know that what I have is not my own. To feel that I am never quite alone. This would I pray from day to day, Fov then I know my life would flow In peace, until it be God's will I go. —Anonymous. The Naturalist Club recently adopted a policy which will undoubtedly become traditional. They have decided that they shall select two members, both from the graduating class of the college, through the selection of a faculty committee, to honor—if they are already natuvalists they will be given special recognition, if not they shall be elected as honorary members of the club. The people chosen shall be outstanding for the services which they have rendered to the school, and shall themselves be outstanding morally, socially, and intellectually.

To our conscientious, pre-depression predecessors belongs this nievitovious work of supplying to them the material necessities of life. It was to us that they intrusted the consequential and fav noblev duty of caving fov the cultuval wants of the niisevable, unsophisticated creatures in far-off Afvica and Bovneo. We have failed that tvust. We ave content to sit smugly by ouv radios and let our souls be soothed by the tender, plaintive strains of "Bugle Call Rag," while in not too distant lands native souls are unallayed by their own fervid, savage rhythms. In blissful lethargy we glide smoothly to "Goofus" and slide with dignity to "Carioca" while Dark Afvica is prancing madly to some bavbaric melody. Aftev once heaving "Tigev Rag" no savage would be tempted to revert to such cavorting; yet we in our greed deny him this privilege and permit him to live on in deprivation. We must begin to face the deplorable facts. Indeed, in all probability there is not even a single saxophone between Mozanbique and Tanganyika—that such conditions could exist in the twentieth century! We as Americans must rise and obliterate these lamentable conditions. No sacrifice must be too great for us even though it may mean the transportation of those lullaby kings.

SIX SENIORS ARE ELECTED TO THE PRAECO'S HALL OF FAME president in 1933. She is a membev of the Education Club, of which she is tveasuvev. John Mavshall, the pvesident of the Senior class, has been an active member of the Y. M. C. A. fov four years and this yeav is vice-chairman of the Student Activity Council. Cal Cooke was president of his class in 1932-33, captain of the basketball team in his sophomore year, vice-president of the Men's Student Council in 1933, a member of the Y. M. C. A. and the Varsity Club, and this year is president of the Tribunal. Tom Smith, this year's editor-inchief of the Praeco, has served his class as vice-president and treasuvev. He was a member of the Student Activity Club in 1933, a member of the Men's Glee Club, and a Delta Rho Beta.

About 1500 years ago in Byzantium, which is now Istanbul, Turkey, the girls who didn't win prizes in beauty contests were obliged to enter nunneries.

C. A. an international motif was featuved. The singing was in the American tongue; Irish tunes were played; scripture was read in Swedish; and Czechoslovakian customs and tales were related. Margaret Delaney played Irish tunes and told us interesting Irish experiences, some her own, others— her kinsfolk's. Helen Lesko told of Czechoslovakian marriage festivals, of Czechoslovakian mannerisms, of their holidays, of their homes and of their communities. Wanda Brown read Scripture in the English; Ruth Sherman interpreted in the Swedish. At their next regular meeting, officers will be elected who will serve for the rest of this year and for next year. The nominating committee which has selected the candidates consisted of the present Y cabinet members who will not be returning next year. GIRLS' DAY ROOM Officers for the year 1934-35 of the Girls' Dayroom will be elected on Thursday morning during the chapel period from the following slate of candidates prepared by a nominating committee appointed by the president, Astrid Hauge; President, Sara Mapes and Isabel Welch; Vice-president, Martha McAllister and Ethel Law; Secretavy-Treasurer, Dorothy Swartz, Lucille Glossner, and Eleanor Wolfe. SHAKESPEARE SOCIETY The members of the Shakespeare Literary Society were very much interested in the address given in chapel recently by Countess Alexandra Tolstoy. This interest initiated a study of Russia which has extended through the last two meetings and, because of the conflicting views of the various authors read, interesting discission ensued. In addition to the con. trbutions made by members of the society. Dr. A. S. Rude and Dr. Kenton 'Vickery presented information which helped make these discussions a success.

IS CAUSE OF MUCH DEBATING (Continued fvom page 1) the humanities ave literatuve, language, history, avt, music and philosophy. Differing from a great many other colleges, Chicago has its professional schools not separate but as pavts of one of the four main divisions. Thus a main essential of the new plan seems to be the elimination or subordination of things that in any way smack of the "trade school." The Administration President Hutchins is at the head of the entire college and university and under him is the dean at the head of the College and fouv deans at the head of each of the fouv main divisions of the University, with a faculty that deals with President Hutchins only thvough their deans. The president also has a separate organization including the dean of students, the aelvisov to campus activities, advisor to students in the college, and the Boarel of Examinations. Courses of S t u d y Every student takes a general course in each of the main divisions and adds other electives. In these general courses there ave lectures given twice a day but no student may take more than four lectures in each course each week and only one discussion gvoup in each couvse. Attendance is not vequived anywheve in the Univevsity and if you don't want to go you don't have to . . The faculty in each division pvepaves a syllabus which contains an explanation of all that must be known to pass the examination in the course. Ovdinavily examinations are given evevy quarter but lately, due to a cuvtaileel budget, the Board has been giving them only three times a yeav. Any student may take any examination at any time, whether ov not he failed ov passed the couvse. The exam, if flunked, may be repeated as often as he wishes. There ave thvee gvades given: S for satisfae. to:y, R for reserved judgment, and U for unsatisfactory, in the course grades; the exams are graded numerically, for compiling data upon which to base scholastic awards. 'The examinations, wh'ch are very comprehensive, are ideally wovked out by the Board of Examinations, but in actual pvactice the Boavd have to depend a gveat deal upon questions furnisheel them by the instvuetovs in the vavious couvses. This featuve of the plan will, howevev, work itself out in time. Campus and Faculty Sentiment The students delight in pointing out the flaws of the plan, but in spite of this, geneval opinion seems to be that this is. the best educational system that the students have ever known and it is getting better all the time. Of the faculty half of them pevhaps are in favor of the new plan because they want to get rid of giving examinations. The othev half vesent what they call "destvuction of their pvevogativcs." The Detvoit Board of Education has bavreil the use of Mother Goose pictures in that city's schools.
