THE FRESNO STATE COLLEGE COLLEGIAN
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY |
Men's P. E. Fees Sky-high
• Compared With Other Colleges
In attempting to find out just how
State's $f*ce for men's P. E. activity
compared Mith the fee for the same courses in
other stitfe colleges. The Collegian presents
To say the least, even The Collegian was
staggered with the extreme contrast shown lie-
tween local P. E. fees and those charged else-
It should lie remembered
ures of the five other state <
omitted  because  no  data  was  I
should be kept In mind that these
ate in the same general way as Fresno State,
Fresno State, and that they h
n their P. E.
athletic teams as has Fresno State.
Outstanding among the many examples The
Collegian found was that at Chico State College.
Each man student, upon entering college, pays
•, for-which he gets complete gym
equipment a
use during his four years in college. In addition
' to this, he pays each semester a towel fee of 75
cents. Thus, during the regular two years of
required P. E., the student at Chico pays J7.
with the privilege of using the clothing for four
years. This $7 sum includes a 25 cent semes-
terly locker fee.
How. The Collegian asks. Joes that eompare with

charge made. The men there do what Fresno
State students wish they could do —use the
gym clothes they already have at home. During
" y P. E. course the
San Francisco Staters pay only $3.
The set-up is about the same at San Diego.
The fee here is $1.50 a semester, plus a 25 cent
. Just what is included in these tee*
The Collegian could not ascertain. But even if
it did include only towel and locker, "
would come as a gift to the students at $7. The
cost at Humboldt is around $6.
r. The C<
tit,?
asks. Joe,
And at San Jose State, men's P. E. courses
cirry a fee of 75 cents a quarter. An additional
general 50 cent fee is levied. Men supply their
own gym suits, but are given swim trunks.
The cost in P. E. fees for two years at San Jose
State, then, is $7.
Ilou. The Collegian asks. Joes that eompare with
It may be argued that San Jose is larger
than Fresno State, that the larger "turn over"
in towels facilitates a lower charge.
In reply. The Collegian can only refer to the
example of Chico, with an enrollment of less
than one-half of Fresno State, but whose two-
year P. E. fee is just a little over one-fourth of
that charged here at Fresno State.
The Collegian has to be shown just why
Fresno State lower division men students need
continue a $4 semesterly fee, when men at
other state colleges pay less than one-half of
the. same amount.
It becomes more and more apparent, the
more this matter, is punued, that the fees at
Fresno State are definitely too high, that they
should be trimmed considerably before-collecr
tions for this semester are made.
'Thirty' for O. O. Mclntyre
When the newspaper man's thirty was written yesterday for Oscar Odd Mclntyre, there
came to an end more than a personality in the
journalistic world.
For 0. 0. Mclntyre was more than a newspaper man.   He was a journalistic institution.
He belonged to that period of journalism
which older men fondly refer to as the "good
old" days. He worked as a cub when the Bennetts, Pulitzers, Danas were making themselves both famous and wealthy. He was the
connecting link between that past en and the
present period of impersonal journalism.
0. 0. Mclntyre was a habit.   Americans
This isn't an editorial!
It's merely the first writing under the new
Collegian policy of allowing four underlings a
four-star chance at being "a lily of a day" on
Fresno State College's semi-weekly newspaper.

The new set-up is designed to give aid and solace

staff members, offer a terse journalese title of
"Night Editor" for the mast head and to be a

Any   further   comment   would   merely   be
