Freedom Train
Worth Wait,”
Say Tourists of History Display
By COLETTA FITZMORRiS
After what seemed hours of
waiting in the cold, the Freedom
‘Train opened its doors to the pub-
lc and a few hundred of the thous-
ands that visited it last Tuesday,
November 11, started their tour
through the three cars.
In keeping with the theme, the
paintings on the wall depicted such
Scenes a8 the Battle of Bunker Hill,
and Independence Hall in Philadel-
phia, These murals were painted
between the glass-in-cases which
contained the valuable documents
of our history. This collection be-
gan with Columbus’ letter to Queen
Isabella requesting permission to
set sail for the New World, and the
last documents were those that
dealt with affairs that have been
discussed at the United Nations
Conferences.
At one point in the tour, a young
girl pointed to the copy of the
amendment which granted women
sufferage and asked her father what
it was, To this, the bright man
replied, “That's the only mistake in
the Constitution.”
Besides the papers that were on
display, there was also a section
dedicated to the history of our
Juniors To Order Rings Wed.
Juniors of State College will be
able to place their orders for class
rings Thursday, and Wednesday,
December 3, according to Robert
Wilcox, '49. President of the Jun-
jor Class, between the hours of
10:10 A. M, and 2:00 P, M. A $3.00
deposit will be required with each
order.
Accelerated Sophomores who plan
to graduate in 1949 may sign up for
the rings at that time.
flag. Outstanding in this group
were the flags that were taken
from the last war—one from the Iwo
Jima raising, and the other from
the U.S.S. Missouri, just after the
Japanese officially surrendered
there in 1945.
When interviewed by your re-
porter, those who were lucky enough
to make the tour shared the opin-
jon that it was well worth the wait-
ing, and that they wished every
citizen had had the opportunity to
review their country's history in
such an interesting display.

“State College News The Best”
To State College Says Gronewold At Conference
“The State College NEWS is de-
finitely the best of the teacher col-
lege papers,” sald Dr. Benjamin F.
Gronewold, English professor at
Buffalo State, at the first confer-
ence of the New York State Teach-
er College Press Association which
was held in Buffalo last weekend.
More than 50 students and faculty
members repre:
per and yearbook s
teacher colleges attended th!
ference at which Jean Pulver,
Associate Editor of the NEWS, was
present.
The evaluation of the college
papers at a clinic held in the pres-
ence of guest advisors from Buffalo
colleges, and reporters from Buf-
falo city papers proved the worth
of the Albany paper. The most
outstanding qualities of the NEWS,
cording to the analysis, were the
makeup and features.
Of the colleges represented, the
only schools with weekly papers °
were Albar Fredonia, and New
Paltz. Problems of journalism

vader interest were
The one fault
s the failure of the staffs
to follow newspaper standards and
the tendency to editorialize.
The press association was estab-
lished last spring as a result of the
Plattsburgh Inter-Collegiate Con-
ference in order to provide some in-
strument for the general improve-
ment of college publications
through discussion and comparison.
At this first meeting of the newly-

organized association, plans were
made to hold the second confer-
ence at New Paltz early next fall
where a charter for the organiza-
tion will be presented. The steer-
ing committee of delegates set up
a membership fee of $5 for each
newspaper and yearbook, to be used
as a reserve fund for the conference
playing host. A system of rotation
of the conference from year to
year will be followed bearing in
mind the facilities for field trips
to newspaper and yearbook plants
and more complete cooperation in
publications will be sought between
all 11 colleges.
Though, according to Dean Ralph
Horn of Buffalo State, that in read~
ing a college paper, “we all read it
and then gripe—then read it again,”
he feels that the college paper is
the “most exciting, discouraging,
stimulating, irritating, but most
satisfying of all college activities
a dynamic instrument in col-
lege life.”

Student Council Suggests
Press Bureau Amend
Part OF Constitution .
Student Council has obtained
Walter Davis, known as Davis the
Magician, to the theatre going pub-
lic, to present his Magic Art to the
student body in today’s assembly,
Mr, Davis is the father of Mary
Davis, Cl of 1948, The council
also approved a recommendation
that the Press Bureau amend their
constitution to govern the elections
of representatives of the student
body. Tentative plans were made
for a Bon-fire pep rally to be held
December 2.
Mr. Davis, a resident of Port Jer-
vis, New York, first became inter-
ested in magic about 25 years ago,
At first he took up magic as a hob-
by and soon he started entertaining
at parties and socials, In 1932 he
took up the Magic Art as a profes-
sion and went to New York City
where he studied under Max Hold-
en, considered one of the world’s
greatest authorities on magic.
ientertains Churches, Clubs
Mr. Davis has performed for
schools, churches, clubs, and the-
atres and during the last war he en-
tertained Army camps and hos-
pitals under the auspices of the
Red Cross,
Mary Davis has assisted her
father during summer vacations and
special performances for many
years, ccasionally Miss Davis pre-
sents her own feats in mental tele-
pathy
The recommendation to be sub-
mitted to the Press Bureau by Stu-
dent Council asks for a change in
their coystitution in regard to elec-
ion procedure of State College rep-
resentatives. It suggests that in
the future Myskania should super-
vise the election and that ballots
be counted preferentially,
‘The bon-fire pep-rally will be held
on the Dorm field on the night of
December 2. Cathrine Donnelly, '49,
Richard Feathers, '50. and Patrick
Dooley, ‘51, will be the Council

Our Business? =.
Two weeks ago the Stare Coutsox News pub-
lished a poll of student opinion on the cafeteria
uestion. We do not claim to be Gallop experts but
we do feel that the poll. expressed the. general at-
titude of the student body towards the cafeteria.
Realizing that this story, like every other story,
had_two sides, we took our complaints to Mrs.
Shoreday who was prompt to exclaim that the stu-
dents had -no conception of the real situation. We
quickly agreed and waited patiently for a little en-
lightenment so we might gain some conception of
that situation.
In a small way, we do realize that prices have
gone up and we are of the opinion that most of
the students expected some rise in their cost of
living this year. But the main gripe seems to be,
“Why can we eat for less at the profit-seeking res-
taurants in this vicinity than we can at our own
non-profit cafeteria?”
The manager of the cafeteria was approached
again and an itemized list of monthly income and
expenditures was promised a staff member for
publication to prove to the student body that the
cafeteria has its problems too. The time approach-
ed for the publication of the figures and no figures
were available. They were considered, to put it
politely—‘Of no interest to the student body.”
Granted we don’t have subsidies from the state,
granted that bread has gone up two cents, and
granted that we may seek those more “atmospheric”
places of eating if we so desire, but there are those
of us who are unfortunate enough due to schedule
difficulties to be forced to eat at the cafeteria, We
of this select group, consider the type of food we
receive for our money of the utmost importance to
us.
Maybe the way in which the money is spent is
none of our business, but the quality of food and
the prices we pay, definitely are.
But then it is not our due to complain, is it?
We are merely the insignificant, little people who
must retire like good little children and do what our
elders think best for us.
A New System
Front page this week carries a story concerning
new appointments to the News staff. In addition
to our regular number of Sophomore desk editors,
we have appointed three Seniors and four Juniors
to work as reporters.
In past years the three Sophomore desk editors
who were not advanced fo associate editors, were
dropped from the staff entirely, Under the new
system, these people will remain on as reporters
through their Junior and Senior years. The News
has felt for some time that there was a needless
waste of experience and talent under the old sys
tem and we hope to remedy that with our new plan
The new plan will go into effect after Thanks-
giving and we hope it proves su

No critic could have the consum-
mate gall to stand against Advanc-
ed Dramatics, the little seizer of
triumphs, that, with its standards
and egos raised on high, comes on
invineibly, strengthened by the ap-
plauding legions of its State College
following. One might well say that
histrionics is being written now, and
that AD 1947 begins to have a spec-
jal significance, No critic could now
have the gall to be cocky enough to
crow over the deficiencies of AD,
even though having cause . . where-
upon, cries of “chicken” go up on
all sides.
Not so—though I might facetious-
ly refer to the “Pox Dramatica” that
seems here to stay, let me acknowl-
edge that the productions of Kinn
and Mills presented last Tuesday
night are deserving of praise. Yet let
there be no telk of unconditional
surrender of esthetic values. If I
have heretofore thrown my criti-
cisms into bold relief, it was only to
make apparent the fact that a great
deal was to be desired and could be
attained, There is no stench like the
stench of mediocrity,
Very little odor clings to Everson
Kinn, His use of a truncated set
was not without effect, definitely
unconventional and good. Lee Chea-
tham’s work, as always, had a love-
ly perfume to it. “Stew” Camp-

ment oyer his previously muscle-
bound performances. As for the
newcomer, Tony Prochilo did a
bang-up job, although there was
about him the inevitable air of
body - and - voice - conscioustiess, of
stage-awkwardness, of not playing
the make-believe as if if were the
truth, Those whom I interviewed
rated this as the best play thus far
this year.
We shall praise Harry Mills to the
sky for aspiring to produce an im-
mensely difficult tragedy, but we
shall damn him for misconceiving
the greater part of his lighting ef-
fects and presenting us with a ka-
leidoscopie display that -confused
not only the light crew but the spec-
tators. Warren Reich failed to re-
alize that there is more to being
fiendish than having a good voice.’
There were also other disembodied
voices on the stage that did not
make as telling an effect as Reich.
Without a doubt what success the
play enjoyed is almost solely attri-
butable to the efforts of Giff Win-
gate. He was the whole fire of the
play; yet, if he had burned less
fiercely at times, he might have
succeeded in making the climax
of the play more the blazing hig
points they should have been,
But I must concur that they are
beginning to conquer.
Idiot's Delight
By TOM
Enwye S. Seetea paraded boldly
up to the door of Phi Pho Phum
and gave worth with a loud whistle.
As the Phi Pho’s were having open
house that night, and as it was ex-
tremely cold outside, they let him
in, ‘The receptionist greeted him
with animated disinterest,
“Oh, hello Enwye.” At this, all
those radiant little Phi Pho faces
which had been peering out from
the kitchen, down from the stair-
way, and up from behind the um-
brella rack, suddenly clouded and
disappeared from sight. “Take off
your mackinaw and go on in the
other room; they're having a lot of
fun.” Enwye recognized this as a
standard phrase employed by all
sorority bell-hops, but he tossed his
pink plaid coat and gold ear-muffs
on top of the heap of racoons, and
advanced confidently to the living
room,
Indeed they were having a lot of
fun! Stunned, Enwye clutched for
support at the clean white door
frame with his dirty little hands.
* Hundreds of strangers had invaded
his domain, There they were —
saming, singing, dancing, and po-
go-sticking around the room on
slide-rules,
“What manner of spirits be
ub 2" quoth Enwye aghast, but
his volce was lost in a chorus of
“To the Mudflats of Cohoes.” Alas,
the worst blow of all was that the
girls—HIS girls, seemed to be en-
joying themselves. He slumped into
a chairin the corner already occu-
pled by five couples, and brooded
over the fickleness of women, Why

while dancing with one another in
the Commons had smiled sweet
nothings up to him as he posed
masculinely on the balcony. Now
there they were choosing to dance
with those gabardine-clad gamins
rather than to discuss the socio-
drama with him. Where was thelr
school spirit, and who were these
foreigners who did not wish to

self out from the pile of arms, legs,
punch glasses, and cookie-crumbs
in which he had been reposing,
Enwye sidled over to the group
coagulated at the piano, All the
songs were dedicated to Arpie Aye—
® person whom they all loved very
dearly, and to his sweetheart, Polly
Tek. Summoning up some of the
old *Seetea courage that had made
him the Hon of the touch-football
gridiron, Enwye accosted one of the
meeker intruders.
“Say—who is Arple Aye anyway?"
A great silence fell ypon the gathe’
ing, and all faces turned in his di-
rection. One of the foreigners drew
a blueprint from his vest pocket,
and handed it to Enwye, speaking
in a quiet but ominous voles.
“Tomorrow it sunrise—T squares

Enwye glanced at the leering circle
around him, then fled from Phi Pho

To the Editor;
With the oncome of winter, comes
also the age-old question of pneu-
monia, and how to get tt. Tf anyone
is interested and dovsn’t know how,
he can take two or three trips from
the stuffiness of Draper, through
the 32 degrees of cold in the great
out-of-doors, to the also-stufty Il
brary.
Every year someone must prod the
persons ‘responsible to please open
up the underground passyge to the
library. This year, it seems, is no
different, and so, I enter my written
plea along with the pleas of all
those who are unable to speak them
because of the illnesses caused by
this unfornate and uncalled for con-
dition.

Blind Man's bluff

SILENCE REIGNS
As of five o'clock today, open season on freshmen
women draws to a close, to the relief of everyone
in college, particularly those directly concerned with
such an objectionable rush system.
The whole purpose of a rush system should be to
acquaint the freshmen with ALL the various sorori-
ties, but on this campus it has degenerated to a case
of each sorority trying by clever notes, force of person-
ality, or just plain hanging on, to monopolize a fresh-
man’s time. Just how is a freshman to become widely
acquainted under these conditions, except by the
dog-eat-dog methods which they naturally invite?
The sororities could well take a lesson from the fra-
ternities in this, who get along far better under far
simpler rules, though admittedly under somewhat
different conditions.
We hope that the freshmen this year will make
their decisions logically rather than emotionally. We
think that they should join a sorority on the basis
of which one contains their best freinds and their
most friends, and only on this basis. More importance
should be attached to members of the lower classes,
as the seniors will soon be departing. As these are
merely social organizations, any other basis than
friendship put forward is a mere rushing tool, and
should be disregarded as such.
Regardless of assurances to the contrary, there will
be hard feelings as usual on the part of some indi-
viduals, but freshmen shouldn't even consider that
in making their choice. Any true friend will remain
so, even though he may disapprove of a decision, A
true friend, that is. So, freshmen, don’t lose any sleep
over any lost “temporary” friends.
RAH! RAH! RAH!
The varsity cheerleaders are working out these days
in preparation for the coming season.
In regard to cheerleaders, a very poor system of
selection of the varsity cheerleaders is in effect here.
Rather than being selected for merit and ability, they
are elected, which is not good to fill a job which re-
quires certain skills, Here there is no incentive for
an underclassman to work hard, as there is no as-
surance they will be advanced or even be a cheer-
leader the following year, This should be changed, and
also WAA and MAA should award points towards let-
ter awards for the cheerleaders.. Present cheerleaders
desire these changes so let's back them up and give
it to them,
NO BUDGET
The cafeteria budget promised us last week was not
forthcoming this week, the explanation being that it
really was no busin of the students. Maybe so,
as the college students don't have to cat there, but
why have a cafeteria at all if it’s of no concern to
the students? All we were able to obtain was the
fact that of the total income, salaries account for
about 33%, food nearly 67% with only 0.4% as sur-
plus to use as overhead for equipment ete., plus
the well known .fact that all the food prices have
risen. If an actual budget is desired, it will have to
be requested from the President of the college. Any-
one interested had best form a committee,
INTERIOR DECORATIONS
Now that we have beautified the front lawn of Page,
how about the lower hall of Draper? In ‘ticular, how
about finishing the paint job that was left incomplete
at the end of the summer. That ragged edge along
the black line looks bad from here and certainly does-
n't impress visitors.
Also it has been suggested that a few well placed
pictures hung in lower Draper would improve the
Appearance quite a bit, Graduating classes might pre-
sent a picture or two and her a chance for the
States-Men to get rid of their surplus.

In addition to the school course of

Resigns Position
As you probably know, if you
read last week's edition of ‘the
NEWS, the Co-op will start the
new year under new management,
Mrs, Bull has announced that she
will resign from her position at that
time; Raymond Verrey will replace
her.
Mrs. Bull, in a recent interview,
stated that she plans to travel with
her husband, who has accepted an
appointment with the U, S. Army.
Ke served in this capacity during
the war, but has been a civilian for
the past two years.
The Bulls both graduated

Before returning to take charge of
the Co-op in the fall of “46, Mrs.
Bull had had no connection with
the school since her graduation,
However, while students here, both
she and her husband were P.O, fans,
which meant that they were int r=
ested and active in the affairs of
State,
While serving as director of the
Co-op, Mrs. Bull made many im-

as taking charge while the Co-op
was being enl
When asked for a statement, Mrs.
Bull said that she has enjoyed her
stay here very much, and that she
found all of her associates both
friendly and cooperative.
from
there 1s a great need to further pro-
vide planned instruction in retail
selling in the high schools of New
York State and nationally. Since
more graduates go into the field of
retail selling than any other, the
need for teacher preparation is very
great. i
Only commerce majors can take
the course for teaching credit, but
it is open as a third or fourth to
majors in other subjects,

State Cm Team Meet The Seam NF 4g Ve
To Face Alums
“In Opening Tilt
Coach Hathaway takes the wraps
off this year's Varsity and JayVees
the first Wednesday after vacation,
at the Page Hall gym. An alumni
squad will provide the opposition for
the Varsity and the JayVees will
tangle with Potter Club.
This year, the Alumni squad will
consist of “Speed” Koblenz, Bob
Combes, George Dixon, Will Fra-
ment, Stan Gipp, Regis Hammond,
“Bolo” Marsland, Ed Reed, Hank
Ruback and Frank Woodworth. This
group is expected to give the Var-
sity plenty of competition.
In last week's scrimmage against
Pharmacy, State was clearly the
superior team on the floor. Coach
Hathaway was more than satisfied
with the team’s showing. State will
hold another informal scrimmage
The “Old” Question
Last year State scheduled quite
@ few teams out of their class and
“the inevitable result was only two
wins. Also, on the loss side there
were some pretty bad defeats.
This year should be different, but
whether it is or isn’t, the team is
entitled to better support than it
received last year, There were too
many vacant seats in many of last
year’s games.
Attendance at vicinity games was
limited to a few brave souls ventur-
ing to Siena. There were no facili-
ties to venture any further. This
year the idea is circulating to char-
ter busses and get a group to go to
the “away” games.
On December 2nd, the night be-
fore the Alumni game, there will be
a pep rally held on the Dorm Field,
under the auspices of Student Coun-
cil,
Intramural Program Ready

According to Joe Zanchelli, '49,
manager, the opening game will be
on Decembe 4th, The league will
operate in two sections. A meeting
of team captains will be scheduled
soon.

‘50 went down to defeat to an
alert Green and White volleyball
squad Wednesday in Page Hall gym.
The boys of ‘51 needed just two
games to take the two out of three
series,
The first game was close in the
opening stages with neither team
taking a commanding lead. With
the score at six-all, the freshman
team began to roll. The freshmen
racked up nine points, while hold-
ing the Sophs scoreless and took
the first by the score of 16-6.
‘50 came back strong in the sec-
ond game and fought the freshmen
point for point. With the score
Sophs put on a spurt and took a
tied at eight points apiece, the
12-8 lead. The score then moved
to 13-9 with the Sophs serving but
the freshmen got the ball back.
They scored five consecutive
points before losing the ball. The
Sophs' try to take the game failed
and the freshmen put over the
clincher to win 15-13

Thru The Hoon
Our varsity cagers for this week
are three veterans of Coach Merlin
Hathaway's squad of last year;
Tommy O'Brien, Walt Schick and
Basil Karplak.
O'Brien, who hails from across
the river in nearby Rensselaer, made
State's vars! last fall as a frosh,
He played two years of varsity bas-
ketball at Van Rensselaer High and
played plenty of service ball while
doing his stretch in the Navy. Tom
is 6/1” tall and weighs 160 Ibs.
“O.B." Is a clear playmaker and his
height makes him valuable for play-
ing off the backboards.
Walt Schick calls Bayshore, Long
Island home and played varsity ball
for Bayshore HS. Walt played ball
in the E/T.0, for the U. S. Army
and had plenty of experience be-
hind him when he came to Page
Hall gym last year He stands 510”
and tips the scales at 170 Ibs. He is
one of Coach Hathaway's ‘best

Frosh Down Sophs, 9-7 In Rivalry. Football
Banging over a touchdown and a
safety early in the first quarter, the
frosh footballers downed the Soph
team in the rivalry tilt 9-7, Played
in a brisk wind, the game featured
pass interceptions and superior de-
fensive play
Taking the opening kick-off, the
frosh moved deep into Soph terri-
in three pass plays as Ben
Santora spear-headed the drive.
Here the Sophs took over possession
of the ball, but couldn't gain
through the frosh line. A bad cen-
Emil .
ter pass to Al Holiday allowed the
frosh line to break through and
swear the play for a safety and two
points.
Intercepting a pass thrown by
“Lefty” Blavotnick soon after the
kick-off, the frosh drove to thelr
second score. A pass from Santora
to Ken Ludlum set up the touch-
down, as the frosh went over on
fake pass play. ‘The Sophs tallied
when John Duffls broke from a
“sleeper” position and gathered in
a long heave from Blavotnick.

unable to gain the points, although
her serves were well-placed and
long rallies succeeded each one.
The Sophs had the serve in the
second, best two out of three con-
test, and they led off with two
points before giving up the serve to

comfortable lead before the fresh-

Angels’ Newest Creation

ures of the “Halo,” a Chaplain's

and Pete Wilson. The “Halo”,
a two-paged, mimeographed
paper, also prints items of
students, other than St. Mary's
sports and College news. Many
students, have expressed a deep
interest in the paper.

“Love Me, Love My Dogma" is
the subject of an dr to be
given in assembly this morning by

sent a re-sipg of traditional State

Structor of Political Science. Dur-
ing this time he has had published
