MARY LIZ SULLIVAN

Three months late, nevertheless,
we have decided to make a resolu-
tion! At this time feeling in a bene-
volent mood, we are resolved never
to make a nasty remark about any-
one, say anything at all that would
make anyone feel embarrassed or
tell any secrets that people wouldn’t
want told. Isn’t that wonderful?
Now you may read on without fear.

The game last Wednesday night
between State and Hartwick saw
the end of the basketball season for
this year, A marked contrast was
seen between the number of people
attending the first game of the sea-
son and this game. What happen-
ed to some of those rooters who
usually come to all of State's games?
This week of mid-sems must be the
answer. It does seem however, that
for the final game of the season,
more people could have come, . .
we even noticed some of the faculty
here for the game—well you say,
they only make up the mid-sems—
we have to pass them!

Apologies Department

First of all we want to apologize
to Tichy .. . we haven't been men-
tioning her feet lately and we hear
that she feels deeply hurt, From
now on, in our effort to please
everyone, we will put feet at the
end of the column as a token of
friendship and to show our dear
Tichy that we are thinking of her,

Next on the list of those we wish
to apologize to is Bolo M, whom
we mentioned last week. Friday
was his birthday—and here we were
making all those nasty cracks about
him—wasn't that awful? We really
should -have waited until this week.
Incidentally, while we are on the
topic, Bolo tells us he can’t imagine
why everybody thinks he’s cute. So
if you know please drop him a note
via studént mail and let him in on
the deep dark secret. We know it
waquid help him a lot and we're sure
he'd love to find out.

‘Tears and Sorrows

With tears in our eyes we see the
end of the basketball season, State
saw the beginning of the season
with the return of the vets and
watched the team play long before
they thought they would. Many
thought that there couldn’t possibly
be a basketball season for State
this year.

Others were pessimistic about the
record State would have if we at-
tempted to have a team this year
when there was so little time for
practice, Yet the fellows and Coach
Hatheway went ahead and State
once again had a basketball team.
Thanks—it really was something for
those of us who like to see men’s
basketball, it was a good season,

Not More!

There are more additions to those
clubs we were telling you about last
week, The new additions are the
KP, BC. and M.B. clubs,» Ah—
they grow and grow—It must be the
spring sunshine.’

Guess What

We received a letter from Camp
Johnson the other day telling us
that she feels deeply hurt, Remem-
ber the “Back To Camp Johnson
Movement” that was started last
semester? Well

ment" going on. We have a suspi-
clon that the expeditions going
there are not going for the purpose
of looking for fossils. Oh well fresh
air ls good for the lungs—it is good
for the lungs Isn't it?

Next week comes the surprise of
the semester, We are golng to read
fourth page without the slightest
idea of what 1s going to be on it,
You see next week the Sophomores
are taking over the issue, The only
thing we can say Is, “Please Shapiro

no matter how much Tichy pays

‘ou, don’t let her write this whole
column about her feet!”

Hartwick Defeats State
In Final Game, 54-41

Evans High With 15; ”
Game Climaxes Season

Bowing to the tricky Hartwick
cagers by a score of 54-41, the State
Varsity wound up its season on
Wednesday night before and) en-
thusiastic crowd of fans. Although
the score books proclaimed Hart-
wick the victors, the State team
proved to be a challenge to the ex-
perienced Hartwick players.

The first quarter saw both teams
moving the ball up and dowr. the
court in rapid succession. The Hart-
wick five showed unusual skill in in-
terception as time and again they
stole the ball from the State, play-
ers. However, it was nip! and tuck
through the first quarter as Hart-
wick led at the end 11-10, The Hart-
wick invaders opened their thrust
in the second period as long and
short shots alike made thelr way
through the hoop. Not to be out-
done, the State five tightened their
defenses and tallied eight points to
bring the score to 24-18 Hartwick, as
the half ended.

Third Quarter Thrilling

The third quarter held the thrills
of the game as Evans, erkplug-
ging the State team, sent a long shot
from center through the basket to
start the scoring for State, Feeney
followed through with two baskets
bringing the score up to 26-25. As
the quarter ended the score stood
37-31 in favor of Hartwick,

For the remainder of tae game,
Hartwick led although Mullin, Fee-
ney and Evans found the inark sev-
eral times to bring the snore to 41
points for ‘State, while Hartwick
had succeeded in accounting for 54
points.

The State team was' hampered by
the absence of Bob Combs who was
put out of action due to an injury.
Despite the fact that the victory
was not ours, the players displayed
basketball technique, good team
work, and that neded fighting
spirit. And so, State College takes
off its hat to Coach Hathway and
the fellows on the team who have
proven that State College has a firm
place in the athletic world,

Summing Up

Mullin Winner,
Defeats Wagner
In Final Match

The MAA Ping-Pong Tournament
was completed last Tuesday as
Fran Mullin beat Paul Wagner. This
brings to an end the second MAA
Singles tourney of the year. In the
frst contest Wagner gained the
championship by beating Herb
Weiner, '47.

Fran Mullin moved up into the
finals by topping both Lashinsky
and Oarr, In the Mullin-Lashinsky
match, Mullin took every other
game, the first one going to Lashin-
sky. The fifth game ended 21-15
for Mulln, bringing him up into
the finals,

The finals proved to be a tough
fight for both contestants as it took
alt of seven games to decide the
winner. Wagner had won the first

game easily and it looked as if he P

would take four straight. Mullin
seemed to lose the steadiness he
usually displays. Several times
during the second game he missed
shots and was slower than usual on
the return, Wagner kept a steady
stream of shots going over the net
and ended up by taking the game.
Mullin picked up on the third game
and both boys played a hard, steady
match with Mullin ending up in the
lead. Wagner couldn’t be downed
that easily and retaliated in the
fourth. Once more it seemed as if
Wagner would come out on top.
Mullin kept up his steady game
and even pace and got back into
true Mullin style by the fifth match,
Wagner really had to move and did
so from then on, but Mullin held
the upper hand all the way through,
His shots remained steady as Wag-
ner lost his proficiency and return-
ed fewer and fewer. By winning
the fifth and sixth games, Mullin
tied the score 3-3. Mullin remain-
ed in top form using some shots
which he had perfected since his
last match, These seemed to sto)
Wagner and the game ended to the
tune of 21-17 in Miullin’s favor,

attend, The official play-day open-
ed at 1:30 sharp. Each side had
three teams which they alternated
throughout six quarters, The score
was totaled and State won 43-31. It
wus a good game, and evidences of
sportsmanship were very obvious on
both sides.

After the games, Skidmore gave
a tea for the players at the Recrea-
tion Hall

Those who represented State in
the contest were in order of classes:

eymour, Georgette Dunn,

Gam Kap Five
Remains Only
Undefeated, Team

Loulse Winters and Mary Van

WAA bowling league, have hopes
that the games will all be played

Kap is the only undefeated team
left In the league. Phi Delt and
Sayles are tled for second, each
team losing one match.

For the first time this year, two
teams have Ued one game, AEPhi
and Chi Sig performed this almost
impossible set, and since Chi Sig
won the first game they will have
to take the next one to win the
game. In the other game Thursday
Pierce defeated Stokes in both
games winning easily by one hun-
dred points In each match.

By FRANK WOODWORTH

Before the war the men of State
had a very popular institution
known as “Frosh Camp.” It was @
large camp site on Lake Cossayuna
and it belonged to the, Y.M.CA. It
was a good opportunity for upper-
classmen and frosh to become ac-
quainted. Camp started on the
Friday before registration week and
ended on Sunday night and it
has been sorely missed by the fel-
lows that remember all the fun.
Now there are no more restrictions
upon travel and it would seem we
may be able to resume this pleasur-
able institution.

Varsity Baseball?

Many students and faculty mem-
bers have asked this department if
there is any possibility of re-estab-
lishing varsity baseball at State.
We believe that it will be possible
if there is enough male interest and
ability to put a team on the field.
It is true that we have little, or no
equipment and we lack a ball park
but the enthusiasm of the students
toward basketball leads us to be-
lieve that they would be favorably
inclined toward it. We could hold
uctice on Beverwyck Park and
could play a few home games at
Bleecker Stadium if our home
schedule coincided with that of oth-
er teams using the field. It looks
like a big job for MAA to tackle but
basketball also looked pretty diffi-
cult. It is the opinion of this de-
partment that it can be done,
More Expansion

In keeping with our aim to re-
store MAA to its prewar status, it
has been suggested that a tennis
tournament be sponsored this spring
with a possibility of matches with
nearby schools. ‘This, and the pos-
sibility of a golf tournament, will
be discussed in the meeting of MAA
Counc.l which will be held soon.

Have you got troubles? Are you
getting sick and tired of poring

this is your chance to get away from
it all, If a sufficient number are
interested we will be able to take
little trips up to Indian Ladder and
other nearby places of interest. We
regret to say that it won't be coed.

Basketball Season
Nearing Finish;
To End April 2

Stokes, Moreland, Sayles
Lose Week's Games

On Tuesday night, four more
games were played off in the bas-
ketball league. Gamma Kap de-
feated Stokes 25-10. Last year’s
victors played a sloppy first half,
but Young and Quinn rolled up the
score to lead their team to another
victory.

Beta Zeta trounced Moreland 27-
6. Baker was high scorer for the
winners with 15 points, followed by
Casey with 8,

In the third contest, Phi Delt
beat Sayles to the tune of 27-13.
Michel had 13 points for the winners
and Pulver made 7 for the losers,

Newman added another victim to
their list in defeating the Rares in
a hard fought contest. The final
score was 15-9. As usual, Maggio
lead her team, with eight points.
The Rares’ star player Davidson was
high with seven.

1 Round

Most of the league teams will play
ther final games next week. The
Monday afternoon games will prob-
ably not be too exciting as the con-
clusions are foregone. Tuesday
night, however, schedules what
might prove to be a very interest-
ing contest. The BZ-Phi Delt game
can hold surprises if the BZ squad
rallies from its st defeat and
challenges Phi Delt’s league stand-
ing. The Wednesday tilts are de-
batable but results will probably
not seriously affect final league re-
sults except to determine the rela-
tive standings of Newman and Psi
Gam. Barring possible upsets the
game of the season will be played
Tuesday, April 2nd, between Phi
Delt and Gamma Kap.

The schedule for the final games
is as follows:

Monday, March 25

Phi Delt vs. Tommy More

Moreland vs. Psi Gam
‘Tuesday, March 26

Gainma Kap vs. Tommy More

Whiz Kids vs, Rares

Moreland vs. Rares

Monday, April 1

Tuesday, April 2
Phi Delt vs. Gamma Kap 8:00

This finishes up the league for
this year. The basketball captains
have announced that anyone who
is not on a regular team must have
come to ten practices and those who
played on eliminated teams must
have a total of ten times from
games and practices for

games. cred.ted to them in order to
obtain WAA recognition, all of
these do not necessarily have to be
recordings of their own team.

For Second Time

Cornelia Otis Skinner, the famous
monologuist, author, actress and
radio performer, will appear in the

series of “Modern Monologues”
which she has written herself.

Born of theatrical parents, Miss
Skinner displayed her interest and
talent in dramatics while still a
young girl. Her outstanding per-
formance of Lady Macbeth in high
school made her a leader there and
when she went on to Bryn Mawr,
she became active in writing and
acting in class plays and skits. How-
ever, since she insisted upon having
a stage career, she left Bryn Mawr

To Gripe, That Ja... College Calendar - - - -

Griping, to the American, is as common a pastime
as smoking opium is to a dope fiend or studying
to a scholar. And gripes are to be condoned for
they serve as a ballast to the sinking ship and
likewise, convert overconfidence into strength.

No criticism, however, should be encouraged
unless there is some concrete remedy to be substi-
tuted—criticism, as such, with no feasible solution
to the problem, is worthless. There is a deplorable
lack of this constructive attitude here at State, es-
pecially apparent in Assemblies. The debacle last
Friday seemed to indicate a lack of forethought
and interest in Student Association about a vital
and easily confused issue,

‘There are several gripes around here which
have, at various times, been accorded some little
importance, Feelings run high until a new issue
for controversy presents itself and the old one is
dropped in favor, perhaps, of a fresher argument.
To us, this is a very significant fact.

‘To illustrate our point, there is the question of
reserve seats for Dramatic and Arts and Music
*Council productions. At the beginning of this year,
the policy of reserving several of the best seats
warranted much opposition, The reserve seats are
in the center aisle and because we pay yearly stu-
dent tax which help finance these ventures into
music and drama, it was felt we also deserved a
stab at the best seats. Members of Dramatics and
Arts Association and Music Council, on the other
hand, feel the necessity of reserving seats in the
best interests of the public whose support is also
vital in meeting the budgets of these organizations.
But what has happened? Precisely that—the issue
was discussed at Student Council Meetings, let ride,
and finally dropped entirely so now a rather in-
determinate seating policy has developed.

Sororities also seem to be a nice little subject for
controversy when nothing else is handy. The main
point here seems to be that bids are given early in
the freshman year instead of at the beginning of
the sophomore year when a more accurate judg-
ment of character could be made. At any rate the
argument goes on and on....

Attendance at social functions and interest in
rivalry has often been deplored as lacking at State.
There was a notable decrease in attendance at
basketball games as soon as their novelty wore off
and rivalry spirit has been missing this year, But
here again——the solution lies, not in griping, but
doing.

We've mentioned a few controversies which have
raged at one time or another. Before a change is
initiated, a method fairer, more adequate,
or otherwise better suited to attain the end strived
for must be determined, Yours is the power to
destroy—yours, the power to create... Use it
wisely.

Communications

To Student Association:

The privilege of smoking in the
Commons, the Annex area, the P.O.
and the peristyle was granted us by
the Administration a few years ago.
At the time, I understand it was a
big concession, however, now, we
are smoking also in the lower hall
of Draper. There is a rule that
says no smoking in the lower hall
of Draper especially. There are
also signs — but they have lately
been ignored. The reason why they
should be observed is fairly obvious.
In the first place, the lower hall is
pretty crowded between classes and
lighted cigarettes are dangerous in
a pushing crowd. Those of you who
go to the mailboxes with lighted
cigarettes, I'll admit have plenty of
elbow room—but how about giving
other people a chance, they have
classes, too!

Now Campus Commission can be-
gin giving warnings for violation of

this rule again but it seems to me
that it should not be necessary,
Just a little consideration of others,
should be enough to make you wait
until you get to the Commons, P.O,
or Annex. How about it?
Betty Hamilton, ’46,
Grand Marshal of S. A.

To “Those Backward Balcony Boys”
No, we don’t expect you to risk
life and limb dancing in the Com-

Yes, we do have records “more
your speed"—several of them!
What to do? Just go downstairs

We aim to please!

College Close-ups

Written by Two Sophomore Desk Editors

It has come to our attention (via
one who shall be nameless since he
may have a friend or so left in State
College—that our paper has been
referred to as the State College
Bugle—because it is always blowing
about something. Although we be-
long to the fighting Irish and firmly
believe in the old maxim, “it's an ill
wind we will pass over this
remark and proceed to pass on the
results of our delving into NEWS
issues of former years.

Some of the items we found made
us feel quite at home while others
were In sharp contrast to present
conditions. We leave to our readers
to deeide in which category this bit
culled from the April 8, 1938 soph
issue, falls: “Our regular despoiler

omophagic appeteney.”

to be quite universal, as we discov-

in ‘bike rides’ through Washington

The following quotation was writ-

to the standards of the Dark Ages is
purely coincidental: “The place for

Sophomore can't do

Written by a Sophomore Desk Editor:

Surprise! Surprise! This is not going to be about
Sophomores. After long contemplation and due con-
sideration, it was finally decided that too much
of anything—no matter how praiseworthy—might
prove monotonous, so the Sophomores’ praises will
not be expounded in this column,

When you stop to think about it, what is there to
say? After you have exclaimed over the unusual a
ities of the Class of '48, remarked about the un-
limited supply of extraordinary talents, raved about
the super personalities and distinctive traits of the
Sophomores in general, you have considered a brief
and, of course, eacecdingly incomplete picture of
the superiority of the Class of "48, and that is as far
as most people outside our class wish to go. ‘Th
fore, we shall not talk about the Sophomores,

But with all our good intentions, we just have to
add a few remarks about our issue. It was loads
of fun but being rather inexperienced we discovered
it was a twenty-four hour job. After one or
two sleepless nights, we recalled the good old days
of orientation and decided to arrange a schedule.

A story left unfinished

Since the end has not been acted,

We should answer, we should tell

From the lofty towering battlements
Of the Indians’ paleface brother
In a cold and damp September.

Then the new and untried warriors,
The cager ‘savage Daffies,

First met their bitter foe

Gathered in the Ingle Room,
Myskania there the mighty

And war chiefs battle weary

Who now gave counsel to the young
Around Pukwana of the Peace-Pipe,

The embers in the Peace-Pipe faded

As the flames burst out intensely

In the vicious Gremlins’ eyes.

As the Devils, vainly hoping,

Signed for non-existent dates

At the Daffies' super bureau;

Eagerly fought for library seats

While designing Daffies urged them
on.

Then, with inward quaking, waited

For the banner hunt on Campus

In the Campus Day encounter

The foolhardy freshmen fighters

Having won the Campus Cup

Displayed their banner in the breeze.

Library Display To Include
Trophies From’ Philippines

An_ exhibit of trophies from
the ‘Phillipines is on display in
the library this week. These
trophies were contributed by
Lieutenant Anthony Sroka who
graduated from State in 1932,

One of the most outstanding
articles in the exhibit is a Jap-
anese sword which was present-
ed to Lt. Sroka by his men
overseas, There are also some
silver coins which are rather
blackened from being hidden in
the sea, When the Japanese ar-
rived, large amounts of this
money were dumped into the
ocean to keep it from the enemy
and were later retrieved by the
Americans, Several specimens
of Japanese currency are also
included in the exhibit.

In addition to these trophies
there is a pair of painted wood-
en shoes such as the Philippine
women wear at festivals and
other special occasions. Near
these are several silver trinkets
and bits of coral and a small,
hand-carved model of a fishing
boat similar to those used on the
islands by the native fishermen,

The WAA Bowling Tournament

The
Sport
Snoop

The sports snoop has taken to
roving the halls again, snapping
questions at the vets and catching
them unawares, We went through
the usual questions, name, class,
age, height, weight, and telephone
number (strictly for Sullivan's files).

After we had collected the neces-
sary info we popped the question.
Our problem was, Mr. Agony, “what
Spring Sports will you participate
in and/or support by your attend-
ance, and why?”

Rolf Toepfer, '46, stated that “the
school itself has room only for
baseball on the school grounds.
Washington Park can be well utiliz-
ed for track and field. Arrange-
ments could also be made for use
of the tennis courts. However, I
believe that general interest will be
low because of outside activities of
the students.” It seems like a good
suggestion for the use of Washing-
ton Park during the day-time.

But Fran Mullin, ’48, in between
ping-pong shots, seemed to disagree
about the crowd. “Students will
support the Spring Sports because
State hasn’t had any teams in such
a long time.” Mullin played varsity
tennis in '42 and will pitch for the
team if his arm is O.K. So we see
that he will support those teams.

James Bolster, a Graduate stu-
dent, has stated that “it’s a good
idea to have teams. I’m inelligible
to participate but am willing to
support all of the Spring Sports, I
have a car and will be able to travel
with the team if the distance is not
too far.” (O.K, Sullivan, he lives in
Schenectady, telephone 6-4661.)

Michael Perrette, ’46, wants to see
a baseball team. “I will participate
in that sport, and all intramural
games that I possibly can. I believe
that golf and a tennis team would
build up the prestige of State and
let the other schools know that
State is on the map.”

On our way over to the Boul
(plug!) we encountered Harry Bad-
en, '47, and Ray McNamara, ’48,
who have signed up for several in-
tramural sports. Ray would be
willing to run for the track squad.
He's a former winner for Newburgh’s
team and has great possibilities,

Over a cup of java we asked Kil-
roy his opinion, After carefully
considering the matter he remark-

“bridge!” It would advance
"and intellectual culture at

Catching Harry Mills, '49, at the
io, we found that he was a very
versatile man indeed, “The dashes
are my specialty, the 100, and 220
yards. I even made a stab at the
mile, Baseball is the best spectator
sport for the Spring but I don’t
believe that it will be well attended.
A varsity swimming team should be
started for those fellows and inter-
collegiate competition could take
place. Swimming doesn't take mu
equipment and is a healthy spor!

Alan L, Stone, '47, ended up our
round-up by stating “that baseball
will not be well attended, but soft-
ull, on Page Field, will hold the
interest of the students.”

Coach Hathaway's official state-
ment was that “the baseball season
looks promising. The fellows have
signed up, but there is no equip-
ment, and no games have been
scheduled.”

one game lead while BZ dropped
into third place. The Gamma Kap
and Psi Gamma teams remained
tied for second place honors with
two losses apiece.

In Monday's contests, Psi Gamma
defeated Moreland 24-11 in a fast
moving game. Lengyel starred for

The Phi Delt-BZ game highlight-
ed Tuesday’s contests as the top

fighting BZ players 18-12. Led by
Casey and Baker, who each ac-
counted for four points for the los-
ers, BZ pushed the score to 12-11
by the end of the third quarter,
but were unable to check the ad-
vance of Phi Delt in the final pe-
riod. Michel led the winners with
eight points.

In the first contest of the evening,
the plucky Whiz Kids were defeat-
ed 24-10 by the excellent playing of
the Rares team. Davidson spark-
plugged the winners with her
smooth center plays and accounted
for 12 of the winners points. Ricci
led the Whiz Kids with six points.

The Newman team found KD an
easy mark as they gained points
steadily throughout to a final score
of 27-10, Soulich was high scorer
for Newman with ten points while
Shure led the KD basketeers with
six points.

In the opener to the Wednesday
night contests, the Whiz Kids were

Psi Gamma won an easy victory
from the Newman team by a 27-8
score. The winners were paced by
Lengyel with 14 points while Maggio

The new swing band, organ-

been rehearsing furiously in
secluded spots (Sayles Hall gym
included). It’s been strictly on
the hush-hush side until enough
numbers had been learned to
give a good show.

Sometime next week, the
group will drop anchor in the
Commons at noon to give out
with the jive for the jitterbug
fiends and swing for the swoon-

ten cents to pay for new music.

If enough interest is shown
in the band, it may play for
school dances or other enter-
tainments.

Since the year '41-’42, there
has been no successful attempt
to organize a swing band, un-

The monologue entitled “On the

in reul life. Miss Skinner witnessed
just such a seene at one time, but
admitted that it was not quite as
