FRIENDLY WELCOME
TO PENN FRESHMEN
University's First Registration
Day Finds the Campus
All A-Bustle
SENIORS, ACT AS GUIDES

ASK us-we'll tell you'--said the
big signs on a score Of information
booths around the Penn campus today.
And TASK us, kid, Wen steer you
straight" was the greeting--in per-
haps more classic phrase when uttered
by grave senior committeeman, Which
welcomed the timid and verdant mem
bprs of the frst-year class as they
carried the old carpet bag into Broad
Street Station, the Reading Terminal
or West Philadelphia.
There were "committeemen" to greet
the freshmen Mt every railroad station,
to tag them so they wouldn't get
lost and to lead them by the hand to
the Houston Club or the ''dorms," or
to send them on personally conducted
tours of the West Philadelphia college
boarding house district in search for
rooms.
Members of the senior class, ably
aided and abetted by the sophomore
vigilance committee" formed, the
committees which met the freshmen and
started them right on their college
careers.
This was the first of the registration
days at the University of PENNSYLVANIA.
and the campus showed all the familiar
signs OF hustle and hustle that are
characteristic of the first day the crowd
comes back to school. Expressmen made
up for lean summer, and the piles of
luggage-never say baggage. freshmen
piled mountain high in front of the
dorms' entrance at Thirty seventh
street and Woodland avenue.
All morning there was a line half

and off the college campus. It broke up
ut lunch time, as the freshmen's desire
to pay their shot" and get it over
with yielded to the demands of healthy
appetites and sent them scurrying off to
the White House or the Dutch kitchen
for a little provender.
In College Hall there were other
upper classmen on hand to steer the
milling freshmen into the right one of
the twenty lines that waited to get
schedules and rosters. And at the
Houton Club the Y. NJ. G. A. was
going full blast all day to get the en-
tering men lined up for the winters
activities.
Tomorrow there will be sight seeking
tours of the campus for the freshmen.
There will be no motorbuses, but will
ing guides will march in front of crowds
of freshmen and explain how "here we
have on our right historic Logan Hall. "
Though the freshmen are being raised
by hand, they are not permitted to get
the impression that they amount to any
thing much in the life of the campus.
The upper classmen merely have adopt
ed humanitarian principles, as it were.
