STRETCH CHEWING GUM.
The following excerpt from
I 'rim Slate's daily shows the gum
. hewing tendency in its full force.
The anti-gummers have evidently
ontracted for a special statistician
to aid them in their campaign.
"If the sticks of gun chewed
ilF.ily in State College were placed
fnd-to-end they would reach from
Coup Coiner to Kecreation 1121,
:l compilation of figures obtained
liorn local merchants during the
!ast week-end reveals.
This mythical stick would circle
ilie New Beaver Field track and if
transposed to the football field
would form almost four lengthwise
: I rips between the goal posts. It
has been computed that if all the
wads discarded in one day. were
;laccd in a mound on the Belle
lonlc Central tracks, it would be
large enough to derail the train.
A complete canvass of the town
stores shows that the average
daily sale of chewing gum amounts

majority of the male students are

ler lo purchase the eiastic product.
Whether or not President Hetzel
is an addict to the craze is not
known, but information was re-i-eived
from a reliable source that
he personally purchased a box of
rhicklets containing 210 of the
sugar-coated pellets. Thomas I.

leads the pedagogical field with an
average of one pack dally.
Contrary to popular belief coeds
seldom buy gum, merchants re
port. ODe dealer declared that
Ipfs than twenty-five women stu
dents purchased the confection
Horn his store during the entire
vear.
Slnte College merchants declare
that at present sales in gum are
ocing boomed, but they give no
definite answer as to what is caus
ing the rage. Some believe it the
result, of intensive advertising
campaigns by manufacturers of
the product, while others surmise
thut it is due to overworked
minds wbirh need som outlet for
excess energy.
TWO MORE WEEKS RUSHING.
SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY, Sy
tacuse, N. Y. Sororities of Syra
cuse university, under a new plan,
will extend rushing next fall for
two additional weeks. Communi
cation with the freshmen can be
held in the capacity of Big Sister
only, or with special permission of
Panhellenic. This will eliminate
all personal dating and parties will
lie the only method of rushing.
During the first week of rushing
in addition to the opening tea,
three parties will be allowed on
alternate night. During the second
week each sorority may give two
parties.
"EYES" IN TEN TONGUES.
UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS, Aus
tin The tower of Babel where a
thousand tongues were spoken has
been revived on the campus since
the school song. "The Eyes of
Texas," has been translated into
nine languages taught here.
The translations were made at
th request of President Y. Bene
dict by language teachers and are
to be published in "The Alcalde,"
ex-student magazine. French was
the only language on the campus
into which the English words could
not be translated. The French
professor charged with the task of
translation "gave it up" in despair.

RESUME
FINAL TIEJS POSSIBLE
Alpha Gamma Fwho and Tau
Kappa Epsilon won their games in
Class A interfraternity basket
ball Wednesday night in the colis
eum. In Class B, Beta Theta i
swamped the Delta. Oils. 25-5.
and the Kappa Sigs held a slender
13-12 advantage over Pi Kappa
Alpha when the final whistle
sounded.
The Tau Kappa Epsilon five was
able to maintain its small margin
of superiority to take a fast game,
29-20, from the Farm House.
Young. T. K. E., was high point
man with seven field goals.
Alpha Gamma Rho displayed a
flashy offensive game to run away
from the Pi Kappa Phi team
31-20. Although the A. G. R.'s
grabbed an early advantage, Sloan
and Davison pushed the Pi Kap's
to a 12-11 lead just before the
first half ended. The game was
apparently anyone's until shortly
after the start of the fourth quar
ter, when things began to happen.
Deuser, speedy A. G. R. forward,
sank six field goals from as many
different positions on the court,
before the Pi Kap's could get him
covered. Davison came back strong
but his baskets fell far short of
catching the rapidly mounting A.
G. R. score. Besides six in a row,
Deuser had collected one field goal
and two free throws for a total of
sixteen points.
Incidently. League VI is left in
a peculiar situation. If Acacia
should win from Alpn Gamma Rho
in their game tonight, a threeway
tie would result, which is precisely
the condition that the recent play
off has been attempting to remedy.

Removing mental barriers
In the Bell Telephone System men are
constantly studying new ways to make the
customer's dealings with the company
easy and pleasant. The new "counter
less" idea, now being introduced in the
telephone company's business offices, is a
case in point.
Here the customer is placed at once on
a friendly personal basis with the company
representative. He is invited to sit down
comfortably and discuss his business. Cer
tainly more satisfactory than standing at a
counter.
This single instance represents a point
of view which telephone men think is im
portant. Telephone service calls for engi
neering skill and more it needs human
understanding.
