LIMIT SET TO SUMMER
SCHOOL ENROLLMENT
Majority of Faculty Will Return for
Summer Session
The school will soon be facing an­
other busy summer session. The Nor­
mal School authorities realize tha1the best work cannot ,be done when
the membership exceeds 800 as it did
last year. For this reason the en­
rollment for this summer will be lim­
ited to 650. Present appearances in­
dicate that there will be no trouble
in reaching this figure.
All the regular Normal School fac­
ulty will return for the summer ses
sion except the Misses Harris and
Snively of the Training School, who
will spend the summer in study at
the Teachers’ College, Columbia Uni­
versity; Miss Bausch expects to spend
the summer in Europe and Misses
Heffernan, McCreary and Costenlbader, who will not return either. Mr.
Grove will return to take his position
which has been filled during his ab­
sence by Professor Kenyon. Miss
Lane will devote the summer to put­
ting the finishing touches to a book
which she will soon publish. Miss
Oyer of the Training School will re­
turn to take charge of the primarykindergarten work, and Mr. Houck
will remain to assist with the Junior
High School subjects.
Miss Blood, Dr. Morris Wolf and'
Dr. Carl, who were members of the
faculty last summer session, will re­
turn this year. Mrs. U. S. Bixler, of
Landsdowne who has had wide experi­
ence in normal school work, will have
charge of the teaching of reading and
teaching of story telling.
-------------- o-------------FACULTY CLUB CELEBRATES
AT GRAFFENSBURG INN
Thirty-four members of the Faculty
Club attended a chicken and waffle
dinner at Graffensburg Inn on Mon­
day evening.
The dinner party was arranged as
a climax to the work of the club for
the year.
The earlier part of the evening was
devoted to the regular .business of the
club. The musical part of the eve 1ing consisted of a vocal solo by Miss
Mildred Shambaugh; French horn so­
lo, Prof. David 0. Slyter; Violin solo
Prof Stanley Brunner; and instumental trio, Prof. Green, Slyter and Brun­
ner. The nature of the Club’s activi­
ties for the coming season were dls-.
cussed. The study of the Pennsylva­
nia Novels was agreed upon as the
subject to be taken up next winter.
Dr. Heiges acted as toastmaster
during the dinner and Dr. Lehman re ­
sponded to the toast. The rest of the
evening was spent in singing and
talking and everybody reported a
good time.
--------------o------- —---SATURDAY HIKE WILL
BE A “WADING HIKE”
The hike squad will leave the school
at 10:30 Saturday morning to hike to
Swinging Bridge. Louise Swartz ’24
has announced that the plan of the
hike is to make wading in the stream
at Swinging Bridge the main attrac­
tion of the morning. Every member
of the squad is expected to cast aside
her scholarly dignity and paddle
around in the brook to her heart’s
content. The girls are reminded that
they are to bring towels. The usual
singing and cheering will find a place
on the program.
--------------o-------------SHARE IN NATIONAL
DEBT IS DETERMINED

VARSITY MEETS SECOND DEFEAT
OF SEASON LAST SATURDAY
Valley Team Plays Loose Ball;
Errors Costly
The Red and Blue varsity met their
second defeat of the season when the
Kutztown batsmen handed them a 3-2
defeat oh the latters’ field last Satur­
day.
The game was loosely played from
start to finish and several errors on
the part of the Valley team allowed
Kutztown to register. The local team
however, threatened to score. in the
ninth when Bob Line drove out a neat
triple but was called out for his fail­
ure to touch, the initial cushion.
Neither side was permitted to score
until the third stanza when Geedy
tallied for the Red .and Blue on Mil­
ler’s triple while Runyan completed
the circuit for the Orange and Black,
nine. The opposing team came back
in the fourth inning when Ortt hit a
double bagger and' scored on the
Smeltz’s single thus giving the Kutz­
town team a one point lead. The suc­
ceeding three sessions were unevent­
ful for both teams while Blynn regis­
tered for the Shippensburgians again
in the eighth which made the score a
tie. Coach Ingalls’ team threatened
to break the tie in the ninth when
Line clouted1 out one good for three
bases but was thrown out because he
cut the first base. Jimmie Swope
also had a neat single in the ninth but
to no avail as the Kutztown lads
tightened on the next two plays and
the side was retired. The Orange and
Black team secured a run in the clos­
ing session which gave them their
3-2 win.
Dan Grove pitched good ball for the
Red and Blue outfit and had eleven
strike outs during tbe contest while
the opposing moundsman had but four
accredited to him.
--------------o----- -------“THE GLEAM” RECOGNIZES
THE EXCELLENCE OF POEMS
The editor of the “Gleam,” Mr.
Paul S. Nickerson, has given a dis­
tinct recognition to four poems writ­
ten by students in Miss Parks’ Poetry
class during the summer term of 1923.
Last October, Miss Parks, head of the
English department, submitted sev­
eral poems to the editor of the maga­
zine of verse for young people. Re­
cently a letter was received comment­
ing on the excellence of these poems.
Although worthy of publication they
will not be published because of the
great pressure on the magazine from
secondary schools. Mr. Nickerson
states, “We are puzzled to know
whether we should admit normal
school poetry to our pages.”
The poems which were considered
to be of unusual excellence were:
“Song” by Margueretta Snow, “These
Common Things on Earth” by Dor­
othy Coble, “The Stranger” by Nina
Ruth, “Finis” by Myrtle Eshelman,
and special commendation on “The
Twentieth Century Moth” by Myrtle
Eshelman and “Oppressive Summer
Night” by Nina Ruth.
It is possible that some of this
work may be compiled in “Glimpses,”
A national Anthology of Secondary
School Verses, Mr. Nickerson fur­
ther stated, “You may be sure I shall
be glad to see any further work of
your students and it is barely possible
that I may at some time be able to
use some of the work of your stu­
dents.”

mal School recently were hostess to
their mothers over a week-end. An

Margaret Peters ’25 and William Hud­
son ’25 Will Take Leading P art in
Play; Dance under Miss Hefernan’s Direction
Normal Anniversary program is
retady for presentation this evening.
The Program has been unified and its
predominating characteristic is its
uniqueness: The people on the pro­
gram are thoroughly familiar with
their selections . and have
gone
through a strenuous period of polish­
ing.
Normal is celebrating its fifty-first
anniversary this year. It will be re­
membered that last year was its fif­
tieth birthday and consequently the
society exerted itself to put on an
extra fine program. In spite of this
fact, the committee promises that this
year’s program will surpass last
year’s.
Wilson Dodd ’24 will deliver the
oration. Mr.. Dodd has been coached
by Prof. Gilbert. Harry Markley, the
leader of Normal Societies’ Glee Club,
says that the club will present the
best number that has been given in
the history of the socity. Mr. Slyter
has aided Mr. Markley in the direc­
tion of the Glee Club, preparatory to
their appearance this evening.
A male sextette composed of Clif­
ford Smith, Percy James, Clairmont
Smith, Harry Markley, Clarence Shu­
ler, and Vincent Trich, promises
something new in the way of men’s
choruses.
Ethel McCormick, who has been
working under the tutorage of Mrs,
Blanche Wright Hale, will sing a solo.
Miss McCormick has not divulged the
title of her selection.
A reading will be given by Ruth
Frank and Clifford Smith who have
been coached by Miss Parks.
Miss Heffernan is in charge of the
dance which is' in keeping with the
rest of the program. The dancers are
Anna McFadden, Katherine Werner,
Martha Hutchinson, Emma Gross;
Margaret Schaffstall, Josephine Corle,
with Mae Parfit as substitute.
The leading parts in the play will
be taken by William Hudson and Mar­
garet Peters. The other characters
will be played by Florence White,
Harry Gardner, Charles Gentzler,
Ralph ’Swan, and William Parthemore.
Miss Edna Arnold has directed the
play.
RUTH KEADLE WILL RECEIVE
MANTEL FOR CLASS OF ’25
Ruth Keadle, a member of the Jun­
ior High Group of the class of ’25,
has been chosen to receive the mantle
for the Junior class from Reba Shue
who has the mantle oration. It has
been the custom to choose the person
with the highest average in the Jun­
ior class for the honor of representing
the class on Class Day. This year the
members of the two year class arid
the three year class were eligible.
Miss Keadle has the highest average
of any one in 'both groups of the class
of ’25. She has been a student of
C. V. S. N. S. for four years. She re­
ceived her high school training in this
institution.
SCHOOL BOARD TO GIVE
DINNER TO FACULTY
The school board of Shippensburg
Township will entertain their wives,

MAKING THE INFIRMARY BEAUTIFUL
It is a pleasant looking little building—the C. V. S. N. S. Infirmary.
Many ar& the students that its vine-clad walls have, sheltered; many are
the students who have sought remedies for their ills within its comforting
red brick walls.
The Infirmary is an attractive looking building. It is beautifully sit­
uated in the center of a tiny grass plot. Just at this season of the year
the students admire it even more than usual, for the Dutch-like plainness
of its walls is broken by budding green vines. Soon the outside window
sills will be decorated with window boxes. Yes, the external appearance
of the Infirmary is very pleasing indeed.
Once you are located inside the Infirmary and have grown tired count­
ing the electric lights, the cracks in the walls and the stars in the window
blinds, the at first pleasant looking room begins to grow tiresome. The
eyes begin to-wander around the room for something bright and pleasant
to look upon. Even though the room is clean, pleasant, sunshiny and
bright, something seems to be missing.
The sjek-a-bed is not long in deciding what that missing quantity is.
It .is flowers. Boxes of them on the inside sills of the side windows of the
large room on the first floor, as well as in the other rooms on the second
floor would surely add to the attractiveness of the. Infirmary.
This is. the season of the year when flowers are not hard to procure.
The duty of securing the flowers seems to fall on the shoulders of the Stu­
dent Councils. It would be a splendid plan for them to appoint committees
to canvass the day students, to procure cut flowers for the Infirmary.
Flower season does not last forever, however. Wbuld it not be a good
plan to gather flowers while the ’sun shines ? In other words prepare for
a famine when we have an abundance.
The boys of the manual training classes at the Training School should
be as eager to make window boxes as they were to make hurdles. The
boxes could be made this, spring -and be ready for use at the beginning of
the fall term.Without a doubt the students, both day and boarding, would
be glad to help fill these boxes, with flowers in order to make the Infirmary
more pleasant over the winter months.
The “Campus Reflector” recommends th a t the two Student Councils of
the school take the the lead in the movement and start the ball rolling by
appointing committees to- work with- Miss Kyle and Dr. Lehman and that
they also appoint committees .to attend to the construction of the boxes.
Our slogan is “make the interior of the Infirmary even more beautiful
than the exterior.”
TRAINING RULES
When a horse is to be run in a race he goes through a period of intense
training. When an athlete is preparing to enter a contest, he, too, is sub­
jected to a period of training. After he has been safely launched on his
career, he continues to train during the entire season.
The team that does not keep training rules cannot expect to come out
of a season victorious. To be sure they may shine for a time, but their
weakness will eventually come to the surface and they will receive their
just dues;1the small end of the score. ■
The keeping of training rules is a m atter of individual action. It is
physically impossible for any coach to be continually hanging on the coat
tails of his squad reminding them that if they attend a dance and stay
until the last dance they will more than likely suffer the consequence the
next morning.
Not oniy does the athlete who breaks training rules, bring disgrace to
bear on his own shoulders but in so doing he shows a defect in his code of
loyalty to his Alma Mater. Indeed his defense is two-fold since he is not
playing fair to his team' mates and to his school. It is all very well to talk
about school spirit, but the spirit of pleasure seems to be a stronger factor.
Experience has proved that training rules must be kept faithfully by
every member, of a team, if that team expects to do anything on the grid­
iron in the cage, or on the diamond. It is the small damaged section of
a machine th at causes the breaking up of the entire engine.
There are athletes with a code of honor similar to the code of honor
that the breakers of the Eighteenth Amendment possess. They know
that they aren’t allowed to smoke, because smoking is detrimental to their
breathing. In spite of this knowledge they wait until the coach’s back is
turned1-and then smoke to their heart’s content, thinking how clever they
are to break a training rule and get away with it.
It is a wise coach who makes no training rules, because he knows that
they are useless since his men delight in seeing how many of the prescribed
regulations they can disobey. It is the wiser coach, however, who lays down
training rules that he knows will be assets in bringing in victories to his
squad. It is the latter coach who suspends his men, even though it means
the crippling of the team, because they have broken training and thus;
brought defeat home in their suitcases.

NEW OFFICERS INSTALLED
AT PHILO FRIDAY EVENING
The weekly meeting of Philo Liter­
ary Society was held in the Training
School Chapel, Friday evening a t -sev­
en o’clock. At this time the newly
elected officers took their places. The
retiring President, Mr. Weaver, laid
stress -on Philo’s motto, “Be a Boost­
er, not a Knocker.”
Martha Donner ’25 gave a humor­
ous reading “Buying a Railroad Tick­
et” by Thomas Arnold. The story
centered about the misunderstanding
of a colored gentleman who wanted
to buy a railroad ticket. He became
very angry when the ticket agent ask­
ed him where he was. going. After
much persuasion, the colored man
said he was going to Chicago. When
told it would post sixty-five cents, he
exclaimed, “One inch and a half of
ticket for sixty-five cents!”
An oration entitled “Little Things
that Count” was given by William
Barber. John Miller was. called upon
for an extemporaneous speech; The
Society made several suggestions as
to the subject -he might speak upon.
He chose as his subject, ‘Why I spend
so much time -on the tennis court.”
He said that since he could not take
part in other athletic activities of the
school, he hoped he could represent
his class in tennis.
A dance was given by six girls with
Mildred Kline as Chairman. Lillian
Boyer, the May Queen, was enthroned
beneath the decorative May pole. The
gay dancers did a Classical dance for
the Queen and cleverly matted their
ribbons around her.
The Philo Review portrayed five
boys on a camping party. Each re­
ceived letters from bis friends at C.
V. S. N. S. Each hoy read his letter
and commented on the different
phases of school life.
The musical side of the program
consisted of a selection “In the Time
of Roses”. by Louise Reichard, sung
by Theadore Poor ’25 and a piano solo
by Helen Goodyear ’25. She played
“Barchretta” by Nevin.
--------------o-------------“ANY CHILD” PAGEANT GIVEN
AT ASSOCIATION MEETING
The pageant “Any Child” which
was directed by Reba Shue ’24 was
presented at the joint meeting of the
Y. M. and Y. W. in Main Chapel last
Sunday evening. Ruth Frank ’25,
the president of the Y. W. for next
year, presided at the meeting.
“Any Child” is an allegory which
illustrates the different stages in the.
life of a child. The mother was por­
trayed by Sarah Rider ’24. Knowl­
edge was; played by Reba Shue ’24,
Accomplishment by Mildred Brenne­
man ’24, Pleasure by Blanche Straley
’24, and Religious Education by Mar­
gie Cashman ’24. Each visited the
mother and baby with gifts and each
claimed the child for her own. The
Child, Janet Shearer, grew to the age.
of seven. At the age of eleven, years
the part was taken by Troupier Sipe,
at fifteen years by Martha Crosier ’25,
and at eighteen years by Miriam Witmyer ’24.
The child was visited at each stage
of her girlhood by the attendants who
each tried to lure her. “Any Child”
realized that knowledge, accomplish­
ment, and pleasure, were desirable,
but religious education w as'the most
vital.
--------------o-------------STANLEY HALL NOTED
PSYCHOLOGIST DIES
G. Stanley Hall, who has been call­
ed the father of American psychology,
died recently at the age of seventyeight. He studied and received sev­
eral degrees in this country. Then he
went to Europe where he studied for
; seven years. For many years. Dr.
Hall was president of Clark Univers­
ity, the first entirely graduate school
of the country.
Dr. Hall has contributed much to
the field of psychology. One of his
■books of special interest is his autobiagraphy, “Confession of a Psychol­
ogist.” With the death of G. Stanley
Hall America loses one of its great­
est educators.
