SOCIAL STUDY.
To the Editor:
Your correspondent has just
snent an eniovable evening min
gling with social celebrities at the
Race Track on the Library second
floor. Everyone and his Aunt Hat
tve was there and a good time was
had by all. There were many
beautiful girls who just radiated
the spirit of spring and a number
of handsome fellows also, looking
so manly and serious over their
books.
Much bantering went on be
tween groups and there was a gen
erous exchange of greetings and
expressions of mutual good will. It
is indeed gratifying to see the li
brary attended by such a large
and influential portion of our stu
dent body. I certainly believe that
we should work for a new library
since it is so useful and beneficial
to so many fine socially minded
people.
Your Library Correspondent.

Pcnn State offers
marriage course
Professor to tell 'what
to do after honeymoon'
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (I. P.).
What to do when the honeymoon
is over will be explained in a
course on marriage and its prob
lems to be offered at the Pennsyl
vania State college in the next
academic year.
"The course is not intended to
be a panacea," declared Dr. Kings
ley Davis who will administer the
course. "We do not pretend that it
will be a solution to everyone's
problems, but we do believe it
will offer a point from which stu
dents can begin to think about
their own individual problems. In
this way we hope to make the
course quite valuable to under
graduates." Instruction will range from
family budgeting and manage
ment of household finance to the
emotional aspects of marital ad
justment. Instructors will attempt to point
out, among other things, the bases
on which mates are selected, the
difficulties and problems asso
ciated with courtship adjustment
arid adjustment after marriage,
the cast of children, and the role
of family members in rearing children.
