Mutability
“It’s grand to be back!” some of us are thinking. The first
week is over, with its eager moments of scanning each new arrival
to see if perchance we might not recognize a familar face. Some
of last year’s friends we find; others, many others, we do not. We
feel a tinge of regret and realize that things will not be the same
this year; they cannot be.
We live in a fast-changing world. If there is any single word
descriptively characteristic of the world today, it is mutability—
and especially is it true n the realm of human society.
At best this life seems but a breath of time;
As thin as vapour—fleeting as the summer s dawn,
A rod too slim to hold securely in the grasp,
A mist, appearing for a time, then quickly gone.
No doubt each of us here at Edinboro has taken inventory of
all factors bearing upon the possibility of a successful year. We
have noted the changes as they affect us, have chalked them up in
our minds, plus or minus, and are now settling down to a—but
wait!—
Before you get into that rut, back up a little and see if it is
taking you exactly where you want to go. Of course a rut is help
ful is we would escape responsibilities.
“That’s what I want then,” says one, “a rut. Smooth going;
nothing to worry about, just taking things as they came. 1 want
to be happy!”
Well, if that’s the way to be happy, then, according to W. L.
Phelps, the American cow ought to be about the happiest creature
on earth. The American cow, because in some countries a cow is
harnessed and forced to work, while the American Elsie needs do
nothing but wander at leisure, munching grass. (She doesn’t
even have to chew it while on her feet, but can retire to some shady
lane and lie down to do her chewing.) She has no cares and is at
peace with the entire world. She completes her day’s toilet with
an unconcerned flick of the tail (which is a distinct advantage
over humanity, the average woman requiring about forty-five
minutes each day to groom.
All in all then, the cow leads a very serene life with a mini
mum of responsibility and work; but who, after all, would like to
be a cow?
It takes some people a long time, sometimes more time than
they have, to learn that in the fast-changing world of today there
exists no “Shangri-La.” There is no possibility of carving out for
ourselves a niche where we can sit down and lure happiness to us.
The real values and finer experiences of life are not static, but are
ever progressing. Let’s move on in their company.
Glen Sebring.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES
The speaker of the evening was
Miss Gilmore, who spoke on the
topic, “This Nation Under God.”
She pointed out that during the
war evidence could not always be
found to show that our nation was
under God. but that if one would
really think about it one would
find that a large part of it is. She
stated the principle that if the
world is to be a peaceful world,
our nation must be under God.
Miss Gilmore’s talk was follow
ed by the lighting of candles in
the traditional candle light initia
tion. During the Candlelight Ser
vice “The Old Rugged Cross” was
sung by a trio including Clea John
son, Kay Bartoo and Jean Webster.
The regular bi-monthly meeting
of the Y.W.C.A. was held in Music
Hall on October 3, 1945. The meet
ing was opened with a hymn sung
by the group with Elaine Reese as
accompanist. Scripture was read
by Rose Pertl and the prayer was
led by Peggy Stormer.

UNDER STRESS” by Lt. Col. Roy R. Grinker and
Major John F. Spiegel, deserves more attention than it’s getting. Because
of its serious nature—it treats of mental disturbances caused by rhe
war—readers may think it’s only for specialists. Actually, it is important for all
who want to understand better the hidden
wounds our fighting men have suffered.
Colonel Grinker, former chairman of the
Department of Neuropsychiatry at Michael
Reese Hospital, worked in North Africa
with the American ground and air forces,
and for his medical research received the
Legion of Merit from Eisenhower. Major
Spiegel, also a psychiatrist, has worked with
him.
Colonel Grinker’s unique method of
treatment, hitherto a military secret, has
to do with the use of the drug pentochal,
that induces a deep comatose state under which the patient may relive
the experiences that have so deeply affected him. Wonderful cures
have resulted from this drug, in conjunction with other psychiatric
methods.
It is the authors’ conviction that discoveries that have come
out of the war will prove of the greatest value in civilian life.

The word "guerrilla” is a diminutive of the Spanish word for war,
'guerra,” thus literally meaning "little
war,” points out Isabel de Palencia in
Smouldering Freedom.” She quotes the
definition of the Spanish novelist, Don
Benito Ferez Galdos: "Guerrilla warfare is
the country in arms, it is the territory,
geography itself, fighting.”

The hockey season closed this
year with the game played be

their beautiful manipulation of
sticks, played a wonderful game.
The playing time was so divided
as to allow both the Varsity and
Freshman teams a chance to play
and to watch the team in action.
The final score was 3-2, in favor
of Lake Erie.
Throughout the year the upperclassmen and Freshmen played
scrimmage to keep in practice and
to eradicate the difficulties they
may have had in technique.
The main games between the

I EDINBORO PLAYERS OFF
TO A SUCCESSFUL START
The Edinboro Players, dramatic
organization on campus, have
made a good start toward a suc
cessful season. Their membership
was increased as a result of the
tryouts held at the first meeting.
Barring the shortage of men, the
situation now seems quite favor
able!
The first presentation was given
in the form of a walking rehearsal
of the play, “Where But In Amer
ica?” Yvonne Davis, Mary Liv
ingston and Clyde Snyder helped
to make this a success.
The entire membership took
part in the studio production of
the Chinese play, “The Stolen
Prince.” All those who attended
this program termed it a great
success and will long remember
Louise Johnson’s heroic (?) lines
as the property man.
A brief business meeting was
held on November 7 to explain
the requirements for Alpha Psi
Omega, the national honorary dra
matic fraternity. Evadna Hunter
gave an interesting review of the
play “Arsenic and Old Lace” at
this gathering.
The Players report that they arecontemplating some top presenta
tions for the future so let’s all be
on the look-out for announce
ments!

Mutability
“It’s grand to be back!” some of us are thinking. The first
week is over, with its eager moments of scanning each new arrival
to see if perchance we might not recognize a familar face. Some
of last year’s friends we find; others, many others, we do not. We
feel a tinge of regret and realize that things will not be the same
this year; they cannot be.
We live in a fast-changing world. If there is any single word
descriptively characteristic of the world today, it is mutability—
and especially is it true n the realm of human society.
At best this life seems but a breath of time;
As thin as vapour—fleeting as the summer s dawn,
A rod too slim to hold securely in the grasp,
A mist, appearing for a time, then quickly gone.
No doubt each of us here at Edinboro has taken inventory of
all factors bearing upon the possibility of a successful year. We
have noted the changes as they affect us, have chalked them up in
our minds, plus or minus, and are now settling down to a—but
wait!—
Before you get into that rut, back up a little and see if it is
taking you exactly where you want to go. Of course a rut is help
ful is we would escape responsibilities.
“That’s what I want then,” says one, “a rut. Smooth going;
nothing to worry about, just taking things as they came. 1 want
to be happy!”
Well, if that’s the way to be happy, then, according to W. L.
Phelps, the American cow ought to be about the happiest creature
on earth. The American cow, because in some countries a cow is
harnessed and forced to work, while the American Elsie needs do
nothing but wander at leisure, munching grass. (She doesn’t
even have to chew it while on her feet, but can retire to some shady
lane and lie down to do her chewing.) She has no cares and is at
peace with the entire world. She completes her day’s toilet with
an unconcerned flick of the tail (which is a distinct advantage
over humanity, the average woman requiring about forty-five
minutes each day to groom.
All in all then, the cow leads a very serene life with a mini
mum of responsibility and work; but who, after all, would like to
be a cow?
It takes some people a long time, sometimes more time than
they have, to learn that in the fast-changing world of today there
exists no “Shangri-La.” There is no possibility of carving out for
ourselves a niche where we can sit down and lure happiness to us.
The real values and finer experiences of life are not static, but are
ever progressing. Let’s move on in their company.
Glen Sebring.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES
The speaker of the evening was
Miss Gilmore, who spoke on the
topic, “This Nation Under God.”
She pointed out that during the
war evidence could not always be
found to show that our nation was
under God. but that if one would
really think about it one would
find that a large part of it is. She
stated the principle that if the
world is to be a peaceful world,
our nation must be under God.
Miss Gilmore’s talk was follow
ed by the lighting of candles in
the traditional candle light initia
tion. During the Candlelight Ser
vice “The Old Rugged Cross” was
sung by a trio including Clea John
son, Kay Bartoo and Jean Webster.
The regular bi-monthly meeting
of the Y.W.C.A. was held in Music
Hall on October 3, 1945. The meet
ing was opened with a hymn sung
by the group with Elaine Reese as
accompanist. Scripture was read
by Rose Pertl and the prayer was
led by Peggy Stormer.

UNDER STRESS” by Lt. Col. Roy R. Grinker and
Major John F. Spiegel, deserves more attention than it’s getting. Because
of its serious nature—it treats of mental disturbances caused by rhe
war—readers may think it’s only for specialists. Actually, it is important for all
who want to understand better the hidden
wounds our fighting men have suffered.
Colonel Grinker, former chairman of the
Department of Neuropsychiatry at Michael
Reese Hospital, worked in North Africa
with the American ground and air forces,
and for his medical research received the
Legion of Merit from Eisenhower. Major
Spiegel, also a psychiatrist, has worked with
him.
Colonel Grinker’s unique method of
treatment, hitherto a military secret, has
to do with the use of the drug pentochal,
that induces a deep comatose state under which the patient may relive
the experiences that have so deeply affected him. Wonderful cures
have resulted from this drug, in conjunction with other psychiatric
methods.
It is the authors’ conviction that discoveries that have come
out of the war will prove of the greatest value in civilian life.

The word "guerrilla” is a diminutive of the Spanish word for war,
'guerra,” thus literally meaning "little
war,” points out Isabel de Palencia in
Smouldering Freedom.” She quotes the
definition of the Spanish novelist, Don
Benito Ferez Galdos: "Guerrilla warfare is
the country in arms, it is the territory,
geography itself, fighting.”

from the hockey field
The hockey season closed this
year with the game played be
tween Lake Erie College and Edin
boro. The Lake Erie girls, with
their beautiful manipulation of
sticks, played a wonderful game.
The playing time was so divided
as to allow both the Varsity and
Freshman teams a chance to play
and to watch the team in action.
The final score was 3-2, in favor
of Lake Erie.
Throughout the year the upperclassmen and Freshmen played
scrimmage to keep in practice and
to eradicate the difficulties they
may have had in technique.
The main games between the
Phis and Delts took place on Oc
tober 4th and October 11th. The
Phis won both games, thus giving
them the championship.
The results of the intramural
games are as follows: The Sopho
more team won 2-0 over the Fresh
men, the upperclassmen was 3-0
over the Freshmen, and the Var
sity won 2-0 over the Alumni.
Interscholastic games help to
bring about a closer understanding
between the schools and also pre
sent a wider range of experience
beneficial to all who participate.
During the past season four inter
scholastic games were played.
Edinboro played Mercyhurst on
November 8th. November 10, the
Varsity went to Allegheny to par
ticipate in a play day. The col
leges represented were Allegheny,
Grove City and Edinboro.
The final scores for the entire
day: Grove City 3, Edinboro 1;
Edinboro 1, Allegheny 0.
The following girls make up the
’45 hockey team:
Freshmen: Armagost, K. Bartoo,
Buckley, Crowl, Dunbar, Flower,
Fox, Gross, A. Johnson, D. John
son, C. Johnson, Kennedy, Palmer,
Peplinski, Rozelle, Sanner, Spraggon, Theobold, Vose, Twichell and
McClure.
Upperclassmen: Davis, Deeter,
Gordon, Houghton, Hazen, Henness, Ledwick, Merry, Mould, Pat

I EDINBORO PLAYERS OFF
TO A SUCCESSFUL START
The Edinboro Players, dramatic
organization on campus, have
made a good start toward a suc
cessful season. Their membership
was increased as a result of the
tryouts held at the first meeting.
Barring the shortage of men, the
situation now seems quite favor
able!
The first presentation was given
in the form of a walking rehearsal
of the play, “Where But In Amer
ica?” Yvonne Davis, Mary Liv
ingston and Clyde Snyder helped
to make this a success.
The entire membership took
part in the studio production of
the Chinese play, “The Stolen
Prince.” All those who attended
this program termed it a great
success and will long remember
Louise Johnson’s heroic (?) lines
as the property man.
A brief business meeting was
held on November 7 to explain
the requirements for Alpha Psi
Omega, the national honorary dra
matic fraternity. Evadna Hunter
gave an interesting review of the
play “Arsenic and Old Lace” at
this gathering.
The Players report that they arecontemplating some top presenta
tions for the future so let’s all be
on the look-out for announce
ments!
