Many are Placed in
Immediate Vicinity
of Edinboro College

According to information announc­
ed by Mr. W. A. Wheatley, Dean of
Instruction, seventy-eight per cent of
the 1937 graduates and certificated
students of Edinboro State Teachers
College are already actively engaged
in teaching.
Seventy-nine of the one hundred
and two recent graduates are engaged
in some one of the many different
fields of education offered at Edin­
boro. Though the majority of form­
er Edinboro students secured posi­
tions in the immediate vicinity, one,
Jane Zahniser, is teaching in Cairo,
Egypt.
Seven of January Group Teach

Of the January group, seven of the
ten members are teaching. They are
Frank Edwards, Lucille Pulling, Ger­
trude Walker, Audrey Clayton, Rach­
el Williams, Miriam Berkelite, and
Virginia Diehl.
Of the six degree art graduates,
five have secured positions. Henri­
etta Boss, Leola Dinges, Ann For­
rest, Bernice Howard, and Marian
True are all working as Supervisors
of Public School Art.
Six of the sixteen secondary gradu­
ates have positions. They are: Eleo­

Program Arranged by
General Chairman Waldo
F. Bates Offers
Varied Entertainment
Parents Day, an annual presenta­
tion of Edinboro State Teachers’ Col­
lege in honor of the parents of Edyear, an interesting and varied proinboro students, offers again this
gram for their entertainment
throughout the entire day.
The visiting parents, who are
guests of the college, will begin the
day with registration and visitation
of classes,and will end the day at the
traditional California-Edinboro foot­
ball game in the afternoon.
In between the^e events, they will
observe a Women’s Athletic Associ­
ation sports demonstration near the
gymnasium in the morning and will
be entertained at a complimentary
luncheon, with an informal reception
after luncheon, in Haven hall.
This program, arranged by Gener­
al Chairman Waldo F. Bates, ac­
quaints the parents with the actual
life of their sons and daughters at
Edinboro College. The student body
is cooperating with the faculty in ex­
tending hospitality and in making
this year’s Parents Day as great a suc­
cess as it has been in past years.

Tony Sarg Presents
Marionettes To Big
College Audience
Versatility is Shown
In Hour's Program On
Wednesday Night
Tony Sarg, Master of Marionettes,
Illustrator and Impersonator, pre­
sented his Marionette Show to a large
audience in Edinboro State Teachers’
College auditorium on last Wednes­
day evening.
Mr. Sarg, who has worked with
Marionettes for twenty years, kept
the audience laughing—and at times
in awed silence—as he skillfully man­
ipulated the almost human Marion­
ettes.
With great versatility, he made the
artificial figures cat and dance.

EDITORIAL POLICY
With this issue the Spectator begins another year of publication. An
almost entirely new staff has assumed the responsibility of reporting, editing
and managing this college’s newspaper.
Too, the editorial staff has assumed the larger responsibilty of being
servants to the voice of student opinion on this campus. With this thought
in mind, the staff will, to the best of its ability, serve and be responsive to
that opinion which is a natural and necessary part of this institution.
However, this student opinion, though natural and necessary, will not
be allowed to degenerate into mere ranting and futile gnashing of teeth. In
other words, the Spectator is not to become an instrument of “Veiled com­
ments’’ and anonymous haranguing between partial groups. Too often,
later circumstances have proved that a single boost is many times more valu­
able than a barrel of knocks. So, with this first editorial, it is the announc­
ed policy of this newspaper to discuss with freedom and reason, the opin­
ion of the students on this campus, but, at the same time (and at all times)
to keep it out in the open and on a high plane worthy of Edinboro College.
W. I. N.

INCREASED INTEREST IN EDINBORO
Edinboro College, during the past year, has received a great expendi­
ture of money and labor in the work of improving, beautifying and gen­
erally making the college more attractive and liveable. Too, the work
has not stopped, but is continuing at the present time and—with at least
three new buildings in view—it might be said that it has just begun.
Certainiy Edinboro students and faculty can take increased pride
in their school as the beauty and attractiveness of it is increased by this
expenditure. Though this work makes Edinboro a better college physic­
ally, it also does another thing—which is undoubtedly more important
and that is that it builds up a more favorable mental attitude on the
part of these groups toward their school.
Oddly enough, it is this mental attitude on the part of these two
vitally interested groups that really makes a school. Well-kept buildings
and spacious grounds are only secondary to the mental viewpoint in which
teachers and the students speak of their school. Wonderful schools are
“wonderful” more often because of favorable human associations with
them than mere attractiveness of grounds and buildings.
Certainly the administration of this college should be congratulated
for its splendid work at Edinboro and the students and faculty should ta..e
increased pride and interest in their school because of this work.
