Last Tuesday, May 1, Carolyn
Cullen, accompanied by Ruth
Welsh, ’46, was at Radio Center
when ‘a lonely piano caught her
attention, She wandered up to
it and suddenly she was ques-
tioned by an austere appearing
man whether or not she could
play. With her knees knocking
and hands shaking, she replied
that she could and sat down to
play his request.
During this time in which “th
man” held down the piano for
her, Forrest Willis walked in.
Evidently her performance plea-
sed him enough to ask Carolyn
to play, sans rehearsel, on his
program, a job she performed
willingly yet with fright grip-
ping every bit of her mind.
She’s too modest to say how
well she did, but did mention
he asked her to repeat for him
sometime,
“Hurray for a great junior.”

gratitude, Miss Mary D. Alden,
accompanied at the piano by Miss

The highlight of the assembly
was a stirring address given by Dr.

Current Events—Please
With the war in Europe at an end, how
many of us really know, in detail, what
it was all about? Don't most of us know
only about the landing at Dunkirk, D-Day
and the few other pieces of news that made
a nation-wide stir?
The students are all willing and anxious
to have current events introduced, but
where is the logical place for it?
Some people may think that a forum is
all we need. ‘There are many students who
cannot take advantage of the opportuni-
ties of a forum due to schedule difficulties
or other outside activities. ‘These students
are just as interested in what's going on in
the world as their more fortunate friends,
but they aren't given a chance.
American History requirements in New
York State are unusually severe, but in
Milne, the course has been increased by
one-half year. Could some of this extra
time be spent in discussing current events
and current problems? The students are
willing and we're sure the faculty will re-
view the proposal favorably. Milne wants
to be tops in everything, so let’s bring it
one step nearer that goal by introducing
more current events!
Come Out - -Wherever You Are
Where has everybody been the past few
weeks? Didn't you all know that Milne has
a baseball team? They have been playing
at least one game a week and the support
has been notoriously poor. Why?

This weekend was a very exciting one for most
Milnites.
Phil Stoddard had a party for the juniors at his
home. Friday night was the date. During the course
of the evening Peg Gallivan and Eve Morgan were
hypnotized. It you don’t think it can be done, just
ask the gal:! Shirley Champlin and Dick Grace spent
the evening playing a duet on the piano. “Hungry”
MeDenough rursued Jay Price all night, but to no
avail. Other Juniors there were: Phoebe Hei
reich, Scott Hamilton, Johnny Knox, Don Christie,
Sally Duncan, Pete Hunting, Ann Graham, Barbara
Smith, Diane Brehm, and Gene St. Louis.
I woncer why Bob De Moss and Allie Mendel are
the only two seniors seen around the cafeteria lately.
Could it be that they like the atmosphere?
Bili Newton had a party. for the members of Theta
Nu last Friday night. From all reports it was quite
a gay affair,
Saturday night Janice Hauf had a few junior and
senior girls over for a slumber party, Rumors have
it that the gifls didn’t retire until 6:00 Sunday morn-
ing. Ann Robinson looked pretty glamorous in her
Chinese pajamas. Marcia Leake and Elaine Bissikumer
were kept awake by a violinist who kept barging in
and out of the bedroom door,
Several senior boys went riding in “de Kelly’s car
Saturday night. The famous cry through the halls
of Milne now are: “Where the heck is the spare?”
Nancy Abernathy’s war dog is coming home soon.
Is that why she’s so excited?
Joan Davidson went on a weiner roast Sunday, with
sixty-nine other kids from Albany High and C.BA.
From what I hear they had some time!

JIM MAGILTON
Magilton was finally cor-
for an interview and here's
story:
A resident of famed Newtonville,
New York, Jim can make it from
Albany in seven minutes. This is
done in the famed square car,
Jim entered Milne in the eighth
grade and since then has done a
number of things, He can't
member his freshman year but in
his sophomore year he entered Hi-
Y, played in the orchestra and took

in the Hi-Y carnival. In his senior
year Jim was elected vice-president
ef Theta Nu, played the sax in
“Allie’s” band, which is really Far-
ansky’s, He managed the baseball
team and is on the Traffic Squad,
This story wouldn’t be complete
if the square car wasn’t mentioned,
It’s been said that that car has been
places no other car has: Black
River, five-minute drives and mud,
Jim plays the sax and the
clarinet. His favorite songs at pres-
ent are “Sentimental Journey” by
Les Brown and “The Right Kind of
Love.” If you haven't heard J’m
play the sax or Boogie Woogie on
the piano you've really missed
smething. DeKelly Camp is an
outstanding events; comin’ off the
mountain the first night in square
arzee’s, playing darts and getting
3 bullseyes and just 3 darts, too.
“Wimp” or “Stogie” as Jim is
pmetimes called, has one worry
and that is he spends many a
sleepless night. worrying if he will
graduate with or without English 4
Jim dislikes muskmellon and
auerkraut. That's about as far as
dislikes go so there must be a long
list of likes, which makes him a
pretty nice guy.
In Jim we have the typical out-
door man. He hunts, he fishes, and
thing else under the sun. He

Jim’s future plans are for college
and he will don Navy blues. Jim
is really one swell guy and > will
miss seeing him standing by the

In Sympathy

dent body, wish to express our
most sincere sympathy to
Julia Bayreuther on the pass-
ing of her brother, Charles
Bayreuther, during ‘the past
week.
Jie SNUFF Box
Milne’s softball players have
bravely accepted an invitation to a
playday at St. Agnes School on
Saturday, May 26 and are now un-
dergoing stiff training in prepara-
tion for the event. There will be
several other schools present at the
playday and they ought to afford
some tough opposition. The team
that will represent Milne has been
definitely picked and some are
pretty heavy hitters and fast play-
ers can be seen around the field
these days.
Although for the past week or so,
Kilby kas had to sweep the water
out of the pitcher’s box and the
rain has been annoying these un-
fortunate people who have not been
blessed with naturally curly hair,
the balls and bats have been in
constant use nearly every day.
There has been a number of ju-
nior and senior Life-Savers receiv-
ing instruction at the Jewish Com-
munity Center who are now about |
ready to take their tests. Next week
will find Eve Morgan, Peg Gallivan,
“Richy,” Norma Johnson, Janice
Hauf, and Nancy Woolfolk trying
for the rank of full-fledged senior
Life Savers. |
The Riding Club, which started
off with quite a large number at
the beginning of the year, has|
dwindled considerably to a mere
three or four each week
The few |
faithful riders would like to have
some more people join them. Miss
Dusenbury assures anyone who
thinks he is too green or rusty,
that it takes only a couple days be-
fore he is able to sit down again.
The G. A. C. is turning over a
new leaf this year and Robin, Kilby
and B. J. Flanders are drawing up
a constitution. They have had sev-
eral meetings already and have
been discussing ideas with the
council. A system for electing of-
ficers, a set-up for choosing the
new members and solutions for
many problems that have long
bothered the G. A. C. It will make
future meetings much more system
atic and democratic.
The rainy days have been chasing
the gym classes inside for the past
two weeks and the girls have been
taking State Physical Fitness Tests
They have been doing all sorts of
hings such as hanging from bars,
jumping and climbing ropes. After
they have completed the program,
many of them will receive G. A. C
credit for it.
Some more playdays with St
Agnes and Albany Academy are
being planned and will be held
metime in the near future, There
eren’t many people at the hockey
games in the fall but the team
would really have more spirit if a
| few of the Milnites were there to
cheer them on

Forum Convenes;
Milne Delegates
Discuss and Vote
by Janet Wiley “45
Milne sent five delegatzs and
your reporter to the “Young Ame-
tica Speaks” Forum, Friday, May
4th, in the Assembly chamber of
the State Capital. Fifty-nine dele-
gates from twelve junior and senior
high schools in the city attended.
These representatives of Albany's
youth spoke their minds, thought-
fully and directly, on four major
questions of the day,
Seaman Chairman
Chairman William Seaman of
‘Albany High School opened the
form by saying that forming. the
future can not be left just to the
delegates at San Francisco, but that
all generations must take part.
Chairman Seaman introduced Gov-
ernor Marcia Hedberg and our own
Mayor Jerry Kotzin. Governor
Dewey was unable to attend but his
greeting was read. “Mr. District
Attorney” and “Harrington” were
there in person to present a radio
skit on juvenile delinquency as the
entertainment of the afternoon.
The forum settled down to seri-
ous business with the first question,
“Should the United States have
compulsory military training after
the war?” The vote resulted in 32
in favor of the resolution and 27
opposed. This was the closest vote
of all four questions.
“Does the major responsibility
of juvenile delinquency rest with
the parents?” was the second issue,
The question was highly contested
before the vote showed that 25 be-
lieved it did, while 34 believed it
did not. Carol Jacobs and Phil
Stoddard stated their views in the
debate.
Robinson Speaks
The forum continued with the
third question, “Should eight
year-olds be allowed to vote?
‘After four speeches which mainly
considered the popular point, that
is, boys are fighting and dying for
their country; they should be
allowed to vote Ann Robinson
pointed out that there happen to be
some eighteen-year-old girls and
that she, as one, did not feel qual-
ified to vote. The resolution was
rejected, 40 to 19, an overwhelming
majority. :
The final issue was, “Are physical
education activities in the schools
confined to a few star athletes?”
Philip Stoddard was an effirmative
speaker. He said he believed this
system was bad but nevertheless
true and the situation may often
be traced to inadequate time,
equipment and trained leader-
ship. He said that naturally the
very good, the small minority of
the students, are the ones who
make the varsity squads and are
the ones who receive the training
and the practice. David Golding,
agreeing with Phil’s conviction,
entered the discussion which rrov-
ed to be very interesting. There
was no reply to David's remark
about some Albany schools offering
scholarships for athletics, ..Milne
was about to defend itself against

Peace Confe rence
An assembly was held on Wed-
nesday, April 25, the opening day
of the San Francisco conference, to
inform Milne students of the pur-
poses, hopes, and issues facing the
experts at San Francisco. Students
of State led a round table discus-
sion,
The first speaker, Miss Eleanor
Hayeslip, told of the kind of world
to expect, should the plans for a
worla federation fail. If world
problems cannot be solved by
peaceful means, it is evident that
an armament race will result. Each
country, fearing its neighbor, will
begin producing arms for protec-
tion at an unheard of pace, which
can only lead to another war. In
this militaristic world, average
citizens will suffer while their
countries gain power. Prices will
go higher and higher, and taxes
will go higher and higher, and
taxes will reach an undreamel of
peak.
Miss Jean Roset, the sevond
speaker, reviewed the Dumbarton
Oaks Proposals. This plan provides
for a Security Council, a General
Assembly, a World Court, Economic
and Social Council, and Military
also pointed out that

Lastly, it was illustrated by Miss
Grace Schultz that complete sup-
port of the general public is e-sen-
tial as a two-thirds vote of Con-
gress is necessary for a bill for
world organization. No such idea
as this can succeed without the
people behind it.

“Song to Remember” seems to
have acquainted the general public
with the music of Frederick Chopin.
After the picture’s premier, Victor
issued a popular album of two ten-
inch records. The album contains
a Mayuko, two Waltzes and the
Fantasie-empromptu. An added
recommendation for the album is
the fact that Jose Iturbi has bzen
the recording artist.

Rather scanty is the selection of
single discs issued this week. The
best seems to be Count Bassie’s
rendition of “This Heart of Mine”
and “That Old Feeling.” For those
who like their music sweet, yet hot,
this recording is highly recom-
mended. Everyone seems to be
wanting a new recording of “Sen-
timental Journey” from Crosby (we
hope).
Gershwin—Concerto in F major

This so called “jazz concerto” as
the link between the classical trend
and modern jazz of today. Although
not as popular as the “Rhapsody in
Blue” it is of sounder musical
structure and its themes are more
compact and ingenious. Andre
Kostelanetz and Oscar Levant have
teamed to record a distinctly mod-
ern work in a superbly fresh and
interesting recording.
