Relieve Your Conscience!
The last thing the News editorial wishes
to be is preachy, but the question if misap-
prehended library books comes to the fore
again, ,
Last year, the library committee, com-
ganized a drive for the returning of books
accidentally taken from the library without
being registered. We are happy to an-
nounce that a fifty per cent improvement
has been noticed.
However, to get at that remaining per-
centage, the News, in conjunction with the
library committee, is conducting a cam-
paign. The set-up of the plan is simple:
Every group house has a member whose
duty it is to see that such library books are
returned. A basket will be placed in the
Activities office for this express purpose.
No questions will be asked, as it is assumed
that the person is merely acting in behalf
of others. No record is kept by the Library
of what or how much is returned from each
house — all that need be done is to bring
them and say “lost books,”
Let us add a word more about the
library, The library is not to keep books
from circulating. On the contrary, to facil-
itate this, there is a practical system of
withdrawal, Abide by this system. It pays.
After NY. A., What?
Lust week’s editorial “Abolish N.Y. A.”
has created such heated discussion through
State’s corridors, that we feel a clarification
of our stand is definitely in order,
We recognize that many college stu-
dents need aid to get through college; we
recognize that the present set up of N.Y. A.
has done much to help these students, we
also recognize that in some cases jobs have
been flagrantly accepted where the finan-
cial need was not entirely pressing, and
still we maintain that N. Y. A,, as it is now,
should be abolished,
However, we suggest that federal aid
to students be reorganized on a more prac-
tical basis, The trend of modern educa
tion is to see that finances shall not be a
barrier to keep talented students from in-
creasing their worth to socicty through a
college education, N.Y.A,, as it now stands,
is not on permanent enough ground to in-
sure aid for a student throughout his four
years at college.
We suggest that a new system of fed-
eral aid be invored, that a more accurate
method be evolved whereby aid be given
where ability and financial need demand
it, and that this aid be a permanent insur-
ance of help during the four years of
college,
_ ON. Y. A. is most certainly a step in the
tight direction. Perhaps, the much talked
of federal scholarship is now in order?
Appointment Bureau
Techniques of Teacher Self-Placement
by William A, MacDougall, Ph.D.
Holt Printing Company
Grand Forks, North Dakota, 238 pages
The title of the book is self-explanatory. Various
factors influencing teacher selection are taken up
in detail, Personality, health, intelligence, training,
ete, the commonly thought of factors in job getting
are discussed, Seemingly irrelevant topics in the
realm of teacher placement as prejudice, distance to
school, “pull,” and luck are explained, “A candidate
may have all possible preparations for a job and com-
plete investigation concerning it, he may know that
his qualifications are the best among the applicants,
Yet mere chance may determine the election regardless
of other factors.”
Section II of the book deals with (he application
photographs, Mistakes in attire and pose are enumer~
ated and then illustrated with many excellently ex~
pressive pictures, Err commonly found in men's
and women's photographs are shown, and these pic-
tures are followed by perfect application photographs
which are free from the discussed defects.
The section of the book which will probably be of
most value to this year’s seniors and graduate students
is the one on the letter of application, Aptly put are
such “don'ts” as:
“I am one of the teachers who failed to find a job
last September.”
“I am looking for a place where my work will
be appreciated.”
Don’t mention financial conditions which make
it necessary for you to teach,
Other important and interesting sections of the
book include those concerning employment of teachers
in outlying possessions of the United States and in
Indian schools, teacher placement bureaus and agen-
cles, employment of teachers in city schools, and the
ethics of the teaching profession in foh hunting,
oe eee
When letters of application are a more vital issue,
the News will print more information in regard to
them, offering suggestions and showing “model” letters.
‘Those seniors or graduate students who are inter-
ested in reading Techniques of Teacher Self Place-
ment may borrow the book from the Appointment
Bureau, located in rooms 121A and 121B of Milne High
school,

This inorning the freshman class will make its
annual parade around the auditorlum of Page hall.
We have been waiting for the occasion with great
gusto, because we remember our own freshman days
and the moments of mental angulsh we had to endure
for the duration of the procession, But we realize
now that the experlence was well worth the jibes and
taunts of the otherwise friendly upperclassmen, for
we were carrying on one of State's oldest and most
popular traditions,
Last year's procession was the object of a great
of comment, ‘he freshmen paraded with more
lack of respect than in any previous year, ‘The bolster-
ousness of the situation got out of hand to the extent
that the president of Student association practically
had to call out the State Mulia,
We don't blame {t on the freshmen of last year
Naturally they were new to the school and the custom.
| Instead, we criticize those upperclassmen who had
Previously belittled the tradition to the cluss of 1940.
We say that it ts the duty of the juniors and seniors
to uphold the traditions of the coliege, If our trad-
iUons are worth having, they are worthy of decent
respect and obedience.
To the freshmen we say, make this morning's
assembly an opportunity for you to show your sports-
manship, and your ability to take it in the approved
“frosh manner." It may take @ bit of courage, but
remember that we all have done tt, and we'll be

Basketball Varsity
Continues Practice
Hatfield Stresses Set Shots
and Relaxed Shooting
Monday and Wednesday after-
noons saw State’s varsity basketball
squad being sent out through the
first actual practice sessions of une
current season, Coach Hatfield
placed special emphasis on set shots
‘as well as run-in cockups throughout,
the week,
“The premium on good ball han-
dling” were the key words of Hat-
field's talk to the players Monday
afternoon, The fellows were fur-
ther instructed to relax when shoot-
ing and to determine the angle at
which the ball will rebound off the
backboard,
Due to the appearance of the “fast.
break” on the basketball court this
year as @ result of the elimination
of the center tap, Coach Hatfleld
will undoubtedly be forced to bulld
two teams of equal strength for the
coming campaign, Monday after-
noon, in the first scrimmage session
since practice began a month ago,
Mike Walko, Walt Simmons, Will
Frament, Tom Roberts and Merrill
Hurd comprised one quintet, while
the other formation consisted of
Duke Hershkowitz, Bill_ Torrens,
Frank Quattrochi, Larry Balog, and
Bill Barrett.
Foot injuries kept Captain Tommy
Ryan out of Monday's practice ses-
sion but Wednesday afternoon he
was back on the floor displaying a
bit of his old caginess
To date there has been no varsity
cut, although one is expected to be
made in the immediate future,
Whether the eliminaticn of the
center tap will have an effect on the
number of men kept on the varsity
roster is nol known at present,
In their practice periods this week
a bunch of rollicking freshmen
busied themselves in the gym mak-
ing basketballs bounce all over the
floor in an effort to put them
through the seemingly elusive hoop,
With the first cut of the season over,
Walko and Amyot have settled their
charges down to suiff workouts in an
effort to formulate the nucleus of
the frosh team,

Men’s Contests
End Incomplete
The two fall tournaments, golf and
tennis, have been brought to a pre-
mature end through lack of interest.
Several rounds remained to be play-
;ed when the tennis contest was call-
ed off Wednesday by Patsy Miran-
da, '38, manager of intramural ath-
letics, In one bracket, the second
round had not been played, One
game remained to be played in the
golf tournament when it was ended,
also on Wednesday.
Interest ran rampant but in the
wrong direction, Rumor has it thet
some of the players expect the tour-
nament to continue on next spring,
John O’Brien has stated that this
will not be an actuality. In fact, if
more interest is not shown in this
tournament, it will not be carried
on at all.
The outstanding feature of the
golf tournament was the number of
defaults which could be crowded in,
There were three games actually
played out of the total possible fif-
teen marked completed.
Naturally the fact that there were
so many defaults indicated the fact
that there was no interest, Since
tournaments such as these two can
be carried on only with co-operation,
it is again evident that their posi-
tion is critical, Patsy Miranda and
John O'Brien, '38, president of M. A,
A., have called repeatedly for inter-
est. They are concerned with
handling this program as the men
desire it. They can base their dect-
sions only upon the interest shown,
If the men of State are desirous of
retaining certain features of their
program, they must show that they
want the things Which they have de-
elared themselves willing to support,

Struggle Of Century—
Swing Versus Poetry
How much culture have you or
do you want? Ordo you? Well,
we have a question to test your
cultural quotient (C, Q., accord-
ing to Pressey), The question
is “What are you doing next
Wednesday evening?" No, my
little peach fuzz, I'm not asking
you for a social encounter, but
rather I'm trying to find out
about your appreciation of finer
things,
If you're going to be home
studying—well, maybe you rate
normal. However, if you wish to
be rated in the upper ten you'll
be listening to Robert Frost, one
of America's greatest modern
poets, Who {fs appearing at Chan-
cellor’s hall on the above date,
However if you're just a jam
mad, moronically inclined per-
sonality you'll be over to the
Fireman's ball at Troy listening
lo the swingy syncopations of
Russ Morgan and his orchestra.
So, what do you rate in this
lest, we wonder? But we'll be
seeing you poetically swinging
