Nijmegan Regains State Attention
With Appeal For Correspondence
By COLLETTA A. FITZMORRIS
Remember Nijmegan? For the benefit of those who don’t or have
no oceasion to, it is the war devastated city in Holland which Albany
adopted back in 1947, At that time State College went all-out behind
the drive and the result was that food, new clothing and medical sup-
plies were sent to our sister city.
Now State College is helping in another drive—relax, this will cost
you nothing but the price of a postage stamp. Various letters from tour-
ists in Nimegan have praised the progress that the city's people have
made with our help and their hard work, The teed now is for psy-

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1949
The Future...
The enactment of the Feinberg
Law, and the controversy over it,
only serve to point up the im-
portance of the teacher in influ-
encing the future of the United
States. Nothing is more import-
ant to students of a Teachers In-
stitution than legislation which
will affect them when they begin
to teach.
We do not want any influence
in our schools which encourages
overthrow of our government or
changes in it in any way other
than the Constitutional provisions
for change according to the wish-
es of a majority of Americans.
Those who do not have the in-
terests of our system and princi-
ples of government should not be
allowed to teach.
But in the Feinberg Law, now
declared unconstitutional, there
are vague statements that might
possibly affect some innocent
teachers (and we will be teach-
ers), who are trying to do a good
job.
Some way to keep the teaching
of Communistic ideas out of our
schools is needed, but the Fein-
berg Law is not that “way.”
Thanks .. .
We owe thanks to the Adminis-
tration, particularly Dr. Nelson,
for being so cooperative in work-
ing out a way of lengthening
Christmas vacation, The request
to him came from Myskania as
a result of agitation from the stu-
dent body, Due to the fact that
The Trapp Family is scheduled to
sing Monday, December 19, it
was impossible to start the vaca-
tion any earlier than Tuesday,
December 20. The Administra-
tion has shown itself to be lib-
eral, and receptive to suggestions
from the students.
No Change...
One of the definite suggestions
that came out of the ICA Con-
ference (see this page) was that a
standard ring, with possibly dif-
ferent color stones for each school,
be adopted by all Teachers Col-
leges in the state. We are now
all part of the State University,
and theoretically have more in
common than before,
But actually, we are still as
separate an identity as we were
before, not centered in a partic-
ular locality,
There is no reason for the col-
leges to change their traditional
rings until a more definite unity
is established, and more in com-
mon, particularly in’ regard to
aims (we prepare high school
teachers), is developed. Let's not
change our traditional rings,

Inier-Collegiate Association Conference Report Common Staten
The following series of reports are made by the delegates to the Inter-Collegiate Association Con-

Throughout the discussions, it was generally agreed that the legislative system at Albany is the

Student Government
The Student Government Committee was compos-
ed of delegates from New Paltz, Oswego, Potsdam,
Geneseo, Fredonia and Albany.
It was noted that New Paltz has a Student Council
composed of 17 members, four each from the fresh-
man, Sophomore and Junior classes, and five from
the Senior class. The Dean of Women is an ex-
officio member, speaking on any measure, but having
no vote.
The Student Council of Oswego, Potsdam and Fre-
donia are similarly arranged. At Oswego, the Presi-
dent of the College is a member of the Council, while
Fredonia has a Faculty Advisor. Also at Fredonia
there is one representative-at-large from the music
department and one from the general academic de-
partment. The Secretary and Treasurer of Student
Association are appointed.
Geneseo has a system very similar to ours, except
that assembly attendance is non-compulsory. This
has the result of making it almost impossible to con-
duct business, Out of 640 students, the quorum is
50. However, the same 50 may not appear at successive
meetings so that legislation is often repealed or its
passage made impossible.
Public Relations
Potsdam first told of its set-up for the admissions
committee. On this faculty committee there are two
students who share equally in the admissions pro-
gram. They hold interviews with applicants, and
have an equal vote when the qualifications of the
applicant are reviewed. This is something that is not
found at any of the other ten colleges in the state.
The Geneseo delegate stated that any student in
school can bowl free of charge any or every Satur-
day morning at the local bowling alleys, the expenses
coming out of the athletic budget.
Various methods were discussed as to how a closer
relationship among the Teachers Colleges could be
fostered through athletics. The inequality of the
strength of the various schools was mentioned, but
it was recommended that a type of competition be
attempted in such sports as bowling which require
smaller teams, among schools which are located near
each other.
The subject of freshman handbooks was the next
topic discussed. Each school had on display copies
of its handbooks, and Albany's was found to be the
only one which was bound with a stiff cover, The
other schools stated that they can make general
distribution of their handbooks to every member of
the student body at a cost of less than the $544 al-
located here at Albany,
College Cafeterias
The Albany delegation was especially interested in
the meeting concerning cafeterias, since we have been
trying to do something to make our own cafeteria
more worthwhile.
The general opinion of the group was that we
should try first to make our rooms more attractive—
a place with atmosph and second, to make it
available to more people for a greater part of the
day. Some suggestions made were:
Curtains on the windows
A juke box
Long, narrow tables instead of round ones
Caricatures of faculty members on walls
Invitations to faculty members to dine with
students
“Meal Tickets”
» Dinners on a yearly basis
It was found that the prices in our cafeteria com-
bare very favorably with those in other colleges

Student Unions
Oswego considered the term “Student Union”
to include the entire social program, administered
there by a Student Recreation Association. This
committee has a line in its budget of approximately
$5,000 to use for weekly dances, carnivals similar to
our State Fair, and for formals. For a week-end
dance, open to the entire student body, they spend
between $100 and $250 for an orchestra.
Switching again to another topic, the Buffalo rep-
resentative mentioned that at each home basketball
game, each sorority and fraternity sponsors one game.
This includes providing signs and cheering for the
visiting team, and entertaining them after the game.
It also includes providing entertainment for the
spectators between halves, This sounded like one
idea which could be readily adopted here at Albany.
As is always the case, the question of where the
money comes from was brought up, and a discussion
of the amount of student tax paid at each school
followed. As usual Albany led the list, having the
lowest tax.
Taxes paid yearly by each school are as follows,
with those including extras from that used for stu-
dent budget purposes being noted:
Albany $17
Oswego $24
New Paltz $30
Potsdam $32
Fredonia $36
Buffalo $38
Geneseo $55

Sororities And Fraternities
In the general discussion, it was brought out that
Fredonia and Brockport have no sororities or fra-
ternities. Albany and Oswego were the only ones
who encouraged scholastic standings in the sororities
by offering a scholarship cup. Most of the colleges,
however, required standings of a “C” average in
order to join and retain members.
fees and
It was decided that sororities and fraternities
an advantage through the social life they offe
aids of rushing in getting acquainted with the fr
en, and the aid they give in maintaining scholastic
verages.
Some disadvantages of sororities and fraternities
were also listed. One of these is the fact that some
organizations are segregated, due to charter restric-

Student Elections
AL a Student Elections discussion meeting, prob-
Jems in the counting and casting of ballots and the
voting on student business were brought forward.
The following general conclusions were reached
The best place to hold elections is in the assembly
meeting. This has the advantage of reaching great
majority of the voters, thereby avoiding the necessity
of invalidating elections be isc of a lack of enough
voters to reach a quorum
Of the several methods of counting ballots, all
were valid enough in that they required majority
votes for election, The advantage in the Albany sys-
tem is that it is never necessary to hold reelections
or primaries; some of the other colleges are consid-
ering using it in the near future.

run: open only when the students who worked there

At Brockport, the Senior rings were sold through
the Co-op. ‘The average cost of the rings there and
at Potsdam was ubout $26. Albany told of their new
Co-op system and urged the other schools to take
back the idea, since they were all liable to be sued
because of the discounts given on their fair-traded
items. The group decided to suggest to the conference
that ICA go on record as approving a standard col-

IS SCAGS A GAG?...
Last year, Student Association
appropriated $233 for the State Col-
lege Association of Graduate Stu-
dents for activities for this year.
So far, no organization as such has
appeared. For the benefit of all the
Grads here, we'd like to note that
it is to their advantage to use this
money and get organized; other-
wise, it reverts to surplus. Of course.
if the Grads decide not to have
such an organization, it would
probably mean a buck cut off their
student tax. The question is, Grads,
would you rather have a represent-
ative social body of yourselves or
the extra dollar next year?
FROM ACROSS THE SEA

receives letters of thanks from the
schools in Europe for the money we
sent through CARE as a War Me-
morial. The latest is from Lehr-

In past years, the Big-4 was

thus the money made from it was

tion itself. It seems that the classes
themselves should get the money
earned by the Big-4, and spend it
as they see it. Right now there's

Special Attention to
Sororities and Fraternities
By BRADY and LIEPMANN
The Albany Institute of History
and Art is in the news again this
week with two fine exhibitions, One
of the earliest portraits painted in
the Hudson Valley, that of Robert
Livingston, town clerk of Albany in
1765, has been placed on temporary
exhibition. The portrait was painted
about 1718 by an unknown artist.
The second exhibition, a one-man
show of landscapes and symbolic
paintings by Erica Brooks, is one
of a series of shows by regional
artists. The exhibition opened on
Monday. Miss Brooks is art director
of St. Agnes School and has been
painting in this country since 1921.
She has lectured at schools and
colleges in England and America,
was Art Chairman for the New
York Branch of the League of Am-
erican ‘Fen Women and at one time
served on the sketch jury of the
National Association of Women
Painters and Sculptors. She nus also
had several one-man shows in New
York. In the exhibition are 17 sym-
bolic paintings interpreting the
story of creation. The landscapes
were painted in Idaho just before
Miss Brooks came to Albany four
years ago.
Next week has been designated
by Mayor Corning for the observ-
ance in Albany of Library Week,
In a proclamation the Mayor re-
called this year marks the 25th an-
niversary of the establishment of
the Albany Public Library which
includes Harmanus Bleecker and

took on the Alumni in its opening
game of the year last Tuesday.
Captain Linc Marzello started the
team off on the right foot by scor-
ing a short set shot for the fi
basket of the season. The first
quarter was a low-scoring period, as
both teams had trouble finding the
sket.
Hausner Romps
However, Bob Hausner and Ted
Bayer tossed in two quick sets to
start the second quarter and break
the game open. Marks came back
with a lay-up, and then the varsity
pushed through ten points to give
them a 25-9 lead, Marks, who was
high scorer for both sides with 18
points, was the only one on the
Alumni who could break through
the defense of the varsity and score
in the second quarter. It was in
this period that the “litle men"
of the team, Bayer and Hausner,
tossed in a total of 13 points

twice from the foul line. Kaehn

and Bob Tabor show great promise.
Bayer still has that sharp eye that
earned him fame on the junior var-
sity last year, und Bob Jacoby will
give the team extra height under
the boards.

Statesmen Overpower ABC;
La Manna Records Mighty 257
The Varsity bowling team, all
dressed-up in their new shirts,
proved worthy of the name printed
on their backs by overpowering
ABC three games to none at the
Playdium Wednesday night. In an-
nexing the three-game set, the
Statesmen also set some new rec-
ords for the other members of the
league to aim at, Mike LaManna
racked up a brilliant 257 to set the
pace in that department. Prior to
Wednesday's match, Charley Parks
of Siena held high single game
honors with a 246, but LaManna
with only two non-strike frames
chalked up a new season high. The
other noteworthy effort turned in
by the teachers was a mighty 977
total in their third game. Missing
1000 by only twenty-three pins, the
Statesmen bettered the previous
high of 955 recorded by Siena.
ABC provided plenty of compe-
tition for the locals in the first
two games, but fell short by a con-
siderable margin in the finale. The
first game was decided in the tenth
frame with the Statesmen gaining
the edge by twenty-nine pins, Al-
though the opener was a hard-
fought battle, the second game of
the evening turned out to be the
thriller. The last ball thrown told
the story and the Varsity squad
was on the winning end by virtue
of a one-pin decision. It w
closest game of the season for the
Teachers. The finale turned out to
be a slaughter with ABC bowing
by a total of 168 pins.

That the game was the first of

sloppy play displayed by two fairly

seemed ott of the game as late as

hind by 10 points, 30-20, they did
the seemingly impossible by hold-
ing SLS scoreless, and coming on

JV. players, and & host of seasoned
men, led from the second quarter,
but couldn't rim any points in the

The game started quickly, but the
pace wits so swift that the play and
ball-handling in general suffered,
The Bulls missed many opportuni-

unit kept them in the game. At the
end of the quarter, the score wus

around the work of the committee
in trying to decide what kind of
show they would like to put on over
Station WHAZ and what the colle-
giate listening audience wants to
hear. Illustrative examples adorn
the ideas of the committee. In ad-
dition to the people mentioned
above, the loudspeakers will be
graced with the melodious voice of
Janet Wimbert '52, and a trio com-
posed of Eugene Webster '51, Gor-
don Bennett, and Donald Putter-
man, Sophomores.
Not to be outdone by the musical
contingent. the drama interest has
