STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1943

Bert Kiley:

For the benefit of the verdant
ones, transfer students, short mem-
jories, and those miserables who
didn't get around to reading the Oat
Bin on its maiden appearance, we
again explain the connotative signi-
ficance of the old caption.

In the nasty old world of horse
racing, inside information is not
only gratifying to the curiosity, it
is profitable. Naturally, the plug
himself is the one to see for the jui-
ciest stuff. And where better to get
the steed in an expansive and confi-
dential mood than after a good
hearty meal at the old oat-bin? Do
you think you can take it from
there?

One of the nicer parts about the
old Frosh Camp was the line it gave
the upperclass talent scouts on the
athletic ability of the incoming)
frosh. At any fall fraternity meet-|
ing could be heard something to the |
effect of “I know he's a jerk, but he |
throws @ mean pass.” |

Since both Frosh Camp and fra-
ternities have gone by the way of|
steak roasts and nylons, we have to
judge the boys by their physiques,
handclasps, and their own say-so, |
although the last has frequently }
proved to be unreliable.

The men of ‘47 have about the
usual distribution of athletes, semi-
athletes, and Signum Laudis ma-
terial. However, due to etc, there
are less of them and hence they may
seem either brawny or brainy, de-
pending on which section of the
group one sees the most of, |

Since this is the Sports Depart-
ment, we are concerned with the}
athletes. The boys who pass, run, |
and block will be our especial pride
and joy. Not only do we love them
because they give us something to
shout about, but also because they
give us something to write about. |

However, if there were only some-
thing we could say or do that would
get all the men in the College who
are physically able to get in there
and fight in some sport, be it only a
fast game of shuffleboard, we should
feel that our typewriter were en-|
gaged in essential industry. |

The IM football league has always |
been the main item in the fall pro-
gram. Some fine athletes have play- |
ed football on the Page Hall field. |
Some of them were brawny, some |
speedy; others had no more natural |
equipment than a lot of heart. Last
year Dan Gillen palyed football, bas-
ketball, and softball, and played |
them well, with a leg crippled with |
infantile paralysis.

what's offered. You don’t have to
be good to play on an intramural
team. Football is just one possibility.
Th could be boxing, tennis or soc-
cer. If you don't see what you want,
ask for it.

ment room,

With a free afternoon on their
hands Wednesday, a group of the
more athletically inclined freshmen
wanted to play a little basketball or
football. Some of them carried
sneakers, etc., from home, Since
basketball seems to be their prime
love they were in hopes of being
able to pick up a game and pass a
pleasant afternoon sweltering, As
a compromise measure, a football
would have been nice to throw
around. Result, no basketball, no
football, no nothing. Those of an
ironic turn of mind wonder
why physical condition ts crammed
down one's throat on one hand and
an opportunity to indulge in some
when one wants to is refused.

Outside of the fact that it seems
foolish to deprive anyone of playing
@ game he wants to, there is the old
saw about the idle mind and the
devil’s workshop. Instead of some
fun and exercise there was the al-
ternative of hanging around, a mo-
vie, or a game of darts in some
friendly hostelry.

WAA Plans

Autumn Season

WAA's fall sports program opens.
officially Monday, and ends Nov-
ember 30. A full calendar has been
planned, although all the captains
of the various sports have not been
announced.

This season will offer a variety
of sports—hockey, soccer, archery,
riding, tennis, badminton and golf.

Mary Now, ‘45 and Eileen Shoup,
"46, are co-captains of hockey. This
sport will be played Mondays, Wed-
nesdays and Fridays at 3:30, There
will be a sheet on the WAA bulletin
board to sign up for the sport. Kit
Herdman, WAA's president, hopes
that a large number of fresmen
and sophomores sign up, for hockey
is a major rivalry sport. Of course,
juniors and _ senioi are heartily
welcome too—the more the mer-
rier.

Besides
an event of
nesdays and Fridays.
Thursdays and Frid
nis and badminton will take the
spotlight. Riding at 10:00 every
Saturday morning is something to
look forward to. The time and place
for golf has not been decided as
yet. However, the sport will be an
added feature this year for State's
athletically inclined females.

Kit Herdman hopes for a very
successful season this year. She
held a council meeting Wednesday
and captains for sports were chosen.
These will be announced in the
very near future

dent tax card, automatically you

sociation, Consequently, it’s eco-
nomical to make the most of your

Greeks Carry on Tradition;

Schedule Annual Smoker

Even if State College doesn't
have active fraternities this year,
the remaining Greek men of
State cling to the tradition by
holding the annual Smoker for
the men of the freshman class
tomorrow evening.

Following the President's Re-
ception, Potter Club will play
host to the frosh in the lounge
from 9 P.M. to 12 P.M. It is
expected that all upperclass fra-
ternity men will be present.

In previous years, the inter-

ernity smoker has been an
occasion for the frat men of
State to get acquainted with the
hmen men. It has always
none of the most informal
and yet popular, social events of
the inter-frate: 1 organization

This year, an attempt is being
made to carry over as many of
the men's activities as possible,
the smoker being the first on the

In Sending Soldier State Gossip

‘by Sunna Cooper:

Last year Dr. D. V. Smith started
a precedent by writing a letter, and
then mimeographing copies which
he mailed to the State College men
in the armed services,

world “to tell it” to our soldiers,
sailors, and marines—to give them
the inside information on each other
as well as to inform them on the

can make sure the boys get the
The more material we
get from the students, the more let-

By keeping Dr. Jones supplied with
a steady reservoir of news, the stu-
dents will be participating in a war
activity just as important in its own
way as stamp booth, nurse's aide, or
airplane spotting.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1943

Bert Kiley

This is the story of a fellow who
almost played a game of football.
The hero is that columnist non-
pareil, Herbert Leneker. Yes, it is
strange to see Herb’s name in the
Sports page, but no more so than to
see the Oat-binners in the Service
column.

It was last year about this time
when the setting September sun was
lengthening the shadow of Albany
High across the Page Hall field. An

Various Sports
In Fall Program

Captains and Locations
Designated at Meeting

Kit Herdman, '43, WAA president,
held a council meeting last Wednes-
day, and the fall sports program was
discussed in detail. The captains,
times and places of the various fall
\sports were decided upon at the
‘meeting.

Archery, under the captaincy of
Helen Bushnel, '45, will be held on
the Dorm field at 3:30 on Mondays,

the powerful Potter Club outfit to
a 6-6 draw. A 30 yard run on a
pass Interception by Bob Leonard
had put the Lake Avenue boys out
front and throughout a_ bruising
afternoon they had played Potter on
even terms, yielding but one score,
The ferocity of the contest, Potter's
reserve strength and the fact that
the first game of the year is

combined to take its toll of the s
KDR men who were playing without
substitutes,

session, Dick Beach who had played

The genial Herbert, had been

young lady named Queenie.

He was spied. He was collared

“Hey, Leneker.”

“Yes?”

“Get in there.”

“Me?”

“You!"

At this point Herbert looked about
him. The Potter boys stood impat
jently around, They were now in
that mellow mood that not winning
always seemed to arouse in then

They wetted parched lips with their
tongue. Herbert was not sure they

Herbert looked at the razor crease of

sidered the murderous charge of
future Marine Hansen,

“T havent any sneakers." he offer-

Sneakers were stripped from ine
fallen Beach.

And now Herbert realized what
was asked of him. In the glorious
days of McCreary and Bull, Herbert
would discharge his obligations to
old KDR by supplying some repartee
at the evening meal, or what was
more rare, by rushing a new fresh-
man.

Herbert clenched his teeth and
laced the sneakers. As he lingered
over the last knot, refle

"Yes,"

As Herbert strode upon the field
he wondered why he had never be-
