Wearin’ Of The Green
Ushers In Fifth Stamp Day

“The wearin’ of the green” is
the order of the day, and it has
nothing to do with the Sophs or
rivalry.

Now is the time for all good
Irishmen to show their colors,
for State is observing St. Pat-
rick's Day in the traditional man-
ner, Just to make it “aisy” for
the lads and lasses, the observ-
ance of the “great day for the
Trish” is being combined with
State’s Fifth War Stamp Day.

For the price of only one War
Stamp any lucky student (Irish
or otherwise) will receive a sham-
rock as green as Erin's sod. This
flower of the Emerald Isle is a
ticket of admission to an Irish
show in the Commons at noon,
complete with pretty coleens and
genuine jigs.

Although this Stamp Day is
aimed especially at the Irish,
there is no restriction on the sale
of stamps! Let's put this one
over the top! !

STATE COLLEGE NEWS,

FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1945

— By Mindy Warshaw ——

WORD FROM A WAC

Pvt, Pat Latimer, ’44, sends a colorful description
of her voyage “Over There” that should prove inter-
esting to us who are also serving while only standing
and waiting... and studying: ... “This js my first
day aboard ship. Everything is fine, but I'm keeping
my fingers crossed. It’s a good ship and accomoda-
tions are super. Today was gorgeous — sun and the
blue of the water — not too cold and luckily not
rough, There’s nothing quite so thrilling as to feel
the slight but regular shudder of the motors and the
slow tipping of the floor. So many things have hap-
pened I would love to tell you about but, of necessity,
they must wait for the end of the war. No such thing
as gangplank blues here — we're all so happy to
actually be here — it’s the day we've walted for
since we joined.” . . . Makes you feel like running
right down to a WAC recruiting office and joining
up, doesn't she? Oh well, the State needs teachers
too, you know. . .

INFORMATION, PLEASE

Girls, would you like to see your boyfriend’s (boy-
friends?) name in print? Maybe he could use the
publicity. Maybe you could ure the publicity, Maybe
you could both use the publicity, (Maybe T could stop
eating my brains out and have something to fill this
space up with—),,. The names, ranks, and locations
of ANY serviceman who ever attended State would be
appreciated (via the Student Mail, U.S. Mail, mail-to-
man conversation, phone call to 8-0287, or you can
even whistle and I'll come on the run... you know
how to whistle—just pucker up your lips and...
oh, what am I saying?) This sounds a little too des-
perate, Think I'll be a little more subtle—play hard
to get. Forget what I told you—don't give me the
name of just ANY man—he must be: jn the service,
have the rating anywhere from a Buck Private to a
General or Apprentice Seaman to an Admiral, as the
case may be, he must he hetween the ages of 16 and
60 and he MUST have attended Stale between the
years 1844 and 1945, Now—if your man meets the
requirements, you may drop me a note, and for a
nominal sum, I will condescend to put his name in
my column... Well, that’s all. Guess I'll go throw
myself over a river (I'm gonng play Bridge—).

Communications

To the Editor:

Last week I sat in Assembly and
watched Democracy at work. Yes,
I saw Democracy in action but I
feel this action was in the wrong
direction and the following facts
should have been explained. I know
it’s too late but I must get this off
my chest.

Last March a spirit of Democracy
also ran through State College.
Some wished to throw out Myskania
while others wished to form a good
Student Council. The Student As-
sociation saw that the ousting of
Myskania was wrong and they start-
ed work on a bigger and better Stu-
dent Council. So after many long
and exciting business meetings a
new child was born. A Student
Council of 23 instead of the usual
7 with many new powers. (These
powers were not taken from Myska-
nia since Myskania never had them).

This September our Infant start-
ed to live. We learn in Ed. 10 that
an infant has lots to learn and
makes plenty of mistakes in the be-
ginning. So what did the Student
Association do its own child, who
would have been one year old on
March 17. We told it, of course in
baby talk, that you are very in-
efficient, you have made loads of
mistakes, and you are made up of
people who are not leaders, but
people who won a popularity con-
test. (At least I know I vated for
7 people and if I voted for popular-
ity, I'll take the blame of being a
lousy and uninterested voter). We
continued and said “although you
are a representative group of us, we
feel you aren't good enough to re-
vise our Constitution. It's a big job
and we're going to let 11 from Stu-

dent Association do this enormous
Job.” (Yes, I know some of the in-
tellegent members of Student Coun-
cil might get on the committee).

Some say we didn’t mean it that
way. But when you think it over,
I feel you will have to admit we
took away the big chance our in-
fant had to advance and start a
bigger and better life. After all,
Student Council is our representa-
tive and I would like to know “Why
in h—— can’t we learn to trust
somebody???”

I feel we have taken our infant
and cut its stomach out and just
permitted its heart to beat slowly.
Why let it suffer at all? Why not
kill it and be humane?

I think it would be nice of Stu-
dent Association to appropriate
money for a tombstone which could
be placed on top of the Student
Council desk in the Commons with
the following epitaph inscribed:

Student Council
Born — March 17, 1944
Died — March 10, 1945
It was started in hope of
bettering Democracy, but
killed when it was begin-
ning to see the light.
Sincerely,
Philip Lashinsky, ’47.

To Whom It May Concern:

A letter was sent to the editor
this week which was not signed.
Since it is not our policy to publish
letters which have no signatures,
and since we should like to publish
this letter as well as furnish an
answer, we request that the author
submit his name by Tuesday.

Sincerely,
The Editor,

Qronts

In view of the intensity with which
its protagonists view Palestine, and
the concern of President Roosevelt
and Winston Churchill, it came as
a mild shock this week to hear a
usually informed person ask, “But
is there a Palestine problem?”

There not only is a Palestine
problem but it is the key to many
of the strange developments in the
Middle East recently, Those exotic
stories of President Roosevelt's
tete-a-tete at Bitter Lake with King
Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia—he of
the hundreds of sheep, the burnoos-
ed, grinning aides and the dignity
of 70 years—portend more than the
belated declarations of war which
followed. Shortly after Egypt's
King Farouk visited the President
aboard his destroyer, Egypt declar-
ed war on the Axis, Extraordinary
that a conference can achieve what
Nazi invasion of Egypt failed to do
nearly three years ago, As German
defeat crystallizes, why do these
nations suddenly become belliger-
ent? Because, we read, they were
told their admission to the San
Francisco conference would cost
them a war declaration. What kind
of inter-allied conference will en-
sue from this premise of bribery,
applied to South America as well
as the Middle East, we will not
venture. We prefer to keep a few
hopes simmering.

Yet that segment of Palestine—
the Zionist Jews—which opened war
on the Axis when England did, must
plead to be heard in San Prancisco.
Chaim Weiaman, the Zionist leader
and brilliant English chemist whose
research in the last war moved
England to reward him with the
Balfour Declaration, may not even
be allowed to speak. Loyalty to the
Allies seems irrelevant, judging
from Palestine. Jewish fighting
brigades, young women in uniform
(the PATS) have carried the Zion-
ist flag through North Africa, Italy
and France. Their Arab neighbors,
uninfluenced, not only ignored but
in Egypt and Iraq sought to sabot-
age the Allies. Not until] 1941 and
1942, when England cracked down
on fifth columnists in those coun-
tries, and war began to veer toward
the Allies, did the Arabs soften
their pro-Axis rumbling,

Arab politicians are good poker
players. By staying out of the last
war and dangling oil concessions
before the British, their leader,

By SHIRLEY PASSOW

Hussein, secured transfer of near
1,000,000 square miles of territory
from Turkish to Arab domination.
No other group gained so much
from the war—and at so little cost.
Britain then issued the Balfour Dec-~
laration, promising to further the
establishment of the Jewish Na-~
tional Home in Palestine. On this
basis she obtained the League of
Nations Mandate for Palestine, She
now felt her economic dominance
secure; the lifeline to India and
Asia, termed the most important
factor of empire by the London
Times,” was thoroughly protected
by English bases in friendly terri-
tory; huge profits were envisioned
from oil, shipping, export trade and
side lines. Whatever else has hap-
pened in Palestine, this policy su
ceeded. Nazi propagandists threat-
ened it seriously, but that threat is
gone. Amer nh competition for oil
flared up last year, but a deal seems
to be in progress. Everybody is hap-
py but the Jews and Arabs who
want to live in Palestine.

This column could never do jus-
tice to the 25-year history of Arab
nationalism and Effendi (land-
owners) vs, Zionism, Two gigantic
facts stand out: 1. Zionism has de-
veloped Palestine into the most
modern, healthful and progressive
country in the Middle East. Since
1939, 400 new factories have been
established and war production

acdrupled. The British Army, chief
hase of these supplies, now
owes Palestine about $40,000,000.
2. Arab nationalism today has the
blessing and encouragement _ of
Great Britain, whose policy in Pal-
estine is undeniably anti-Zlonist.
This nationalism has as a common
aim among several disunited, jeal-
ous Arab rulers the destruction of
the Jewish National Home,

Protesting that the Jews seek to
dispossess the Arab natives of Pal-
estine, Arabs scoff at figures show-
ing that the Arab population of
Palestine has doubled since Zionist
reconstruction began. "Propaganda!"
they reply, to statistics on the high-
er economic and health status of
Arabs in Palestine compared to
Arabs in the other vast territories
under Arab control. The Jews,
meanwhile, are as desperate as a
group could be which has poured
“blood, sweat and tears” into both
the rebuilding of a country and the
attempt to rescue millions of fel-
lowmen from the Nazis.

Revise And Prevent...

In spite of the fact that a resolution was passed
in Assembly last Friday which set up a commission
for the purpose of revising the Constitution, the
question is far from settled. There are two theses
which have arisen to complicate the situation. They
are 1—That those present at the Assembly and
voting were forced by the nature of the Student
Council resolution to vote for or against the Coun-
cil in making their decision; and 2.—that Student
Council has been handed a direct insult by the
defeat of their amendment.

In regard to Thesis I, Student Council in present-
ing their amendment stated that a “vote for our
plan is a vote of approval for the work we have
done.” They were prompted in this statement by
the fact that they believed the powers given them
last Spring were elastic enough to include the
power of revision of the Constitution, Mr. Wein-
berg's motion implied the Council did not have
that power, Student Council thus took the op-
portunity to bring the question before Student
Association.

In regard to Thesis II, we are attempting the
impossible by trying to analyse the temper of
Student Association. Uncontrollable factors such
as time, speakers and attitudes influence voting
We believe all these entered into the voting F
day. By this we do not mean to say the students
did not know for what they were voting. However,
it would seem that the students did not consider
their vote as for or against the Council.

Such a controversy as this should never

have

occurred, Student Council is not certain of its
powers and Student Association is not sure of the
powers it wishes Student Council to have. While
the work of the Council is not seriously impaired

by last Friday's vote, the Council has been handed
a set-back. The question of Student Council power
is becoming more urgent since the formation of
the working, interested body we now have. It is
therefore necessary that some decision be reached
as to what the Council will and will not be em-
powered to do. This should certainly be one of the
most important considerations in the revision of
the Constitution,

Not Yet...

State College seems to have been hit by a wave
of over-optimism, WAC has gone out whole-
heartedly to expand war activities at. the college
but there has been a very definite and very notice-
able slackening of interest and enthusiasm among
the students this year. The Red Cross drive is not
going over with one tenth of the enthusiasm it
should

The Stamp Day, sponsored once a month, has
been steadily falling off. Do we think that, be-
cause the war seems a litle brighter for us, the
boys will no longer need guns and tanks and am-
munition?

Today is the fifth Stamp Day. WAC is staging
an Trish show in the Commons at noon. If every
student bought a ten cent stamp, it would help a
lot to boost our War Activities and. it needs
boosting. :

A symptom of increased vigor
and activity was the publication

It's a good idea and we think it
would be wise to keep it up. So far
the staff members have remained

are not conducive to the health and

Three Cheers

One thing that does our heart
good is the increased attendance at
league contests. Members of the
group houses are coming out in
droves to cheer their teams on. At
some of the games, regular cheer~
ing squads go to town, This inter-
est is something we have been
urging for years and are glad to
see developing. It also serves to
support our conviction that if
people are not themselves athletic,
most of them have at least an in-
terest in watching others be athle-
tic.

Final Word

In weather like this we would
rather be taking a walk than
pounding a typewriter, Besides, it’s
healthier—in more ways than one.
So, enough of this.

Thunderbolts In Lead;
Flashes Close Behind

At the start of the present
round the Thunderbolts won
eight straight games to take
undisputed possession of first place,
but at the last two sessions they
have Jost five out of eight. At the
present time the hottest team in
the league is George Hess’ Flashes,
who won four points from Bob Sul-
livan’s All Americans Monday night.
The Flashes are now in second
place, two games behind the
Thunderbolts,

In their match with the All Am-
ericans, the Flashes were bowling
with a full team. This gave them
the maximum handicap possible
and was instrumental in their vic-
tory. The bowling of the Flashes
was nothing to brag about. Bill
Barrington was the only man to
turn in respectable scores. His 164
and 397 were the best that the
Flashes could muster. The All Am-
erlcans were short two men, but
the individual bowling was very
good, Sullivan had a good night
with 186 and 461.

‘The Thunderbolts had a very nar-
row squeeze with the Whiz Kids,
being lucky to gain a split in the
four games. The Thunderbolts had
an edge in the handicaps, but the
Whiz Kids wi just the better
bowlers that night. Hank Farley's
165 and 452 were high for the
Thunderbolts. Ray Cocuzzi led the
Whiz Kids with 153 and 403.

Gamma Kap, BZ
Tops In League;
Six Games Left

Rough Contests Staged

As Enthusiasm Rises

Saturday found basketball still
going strong; the Rares from
Pierce emerged victorious over the
Wrens to the tune of 23-10. With
Valentine making beautiful passes
to Michael, Michael scored 8 points
for the losers, Abrams tossed in 8
points for the winners and David-
son starred by adding 10 points in
the last half.

Tommy More upset a 4-3 score
at the half in favor of KD by a
fast spurt in the second half and
won 19-14, Dunlay aiming well
from any spot on the court led
Tommy More with 9 points, and
Pender gave the KD forwards lots
of trouble. 8 points scored by Jin-
ny Day kept KD in the running
with O'Grady lending the assis-
tance of 4 points,

Gamma Kap Again

The unbeatable Gamma Kappas
romped with the Whiz-Kids in a
very lively game which threatened
their title at times. The 18-11 win
was hard fought but no one could
stop Pedisich from scoring 12
points and with Cheney playing
havoc with the Whiz-Kids forwards,
their strong player, Tilden had
trouble sinking 7 points for her
team.

Tuesday night's games brought
another and very decisive upset. Psi
Gam took Phi Delt, 12 to 7. Psi
Gam has been improving steadily
since the beginning of the season.
Collier and Sabatini chalked up
four points each for the winners
while Seymour tossed in 6 points
for Phi Delt.

One of the most rousing tilts of
the season was that between KD
and BZ. It was a hard, fast game
from the beginning, and ended in
another BZ victory, 18-16. KD held
BZ at the end of the first quarter
but the BZ quintet took the lead
at the half and maintained a slight
edge for the remainder of the game.
Baker paced the winners with 8
points. Day and Smith tallied six
each for KD,

Young Scores

The powerful Gamma Kaps did it

again by licking the Tommy Mores,

26-11. The More team fought all

the way but couldn’t stop the Gam-

Sophs, Freshmen
To Battle loday
In Bowling Event

By PAT SHEEHAN ——

The Spirit of Rivalry has hovered
over every piece of ground hallowed
by that ancient battle. She has wit-
nessed rivalry in every form from
Myskania chaperoned _ basketball
games to harrowing experiences in
darkened dormitories, But never
before has she been invited to see a
strike roll down the center alley,
When eager members of the rival
classes gather at the Playdium this
afternoon at 3:30, the Spirit will be
there to urge them on and to smile
with mystic foresight as she sur-
veys the teams.

Ladies

Her glance is first directed in the
direction of the Sophomore women,
and indeed they do have the advan-
tage of recent practice. In addition
to gym classes every member of the
Soph team has WAA league experi-
ence. Marcia Hollis who is favored
to be individual high scorer is a
veteran from Moreland, Trudy
Smith of KD's team and Sally Whit-
comb of Sayles are close favorites
for placing second. Mary Van Gel-
der, Sue Campbell, Ruth Bentley,
and Peg Palmatier are steady bowl-
ers for the Sayles Hall squad.

But it is a woman's privilege to
change her mind and the Spirit ex-
ercises that perogative as she hovers
over the freshmen team. Eloise
Worth is a substantial threat and
she has a group of athletes behind
her that promise staunch support.
Ruth Osborne, Mary Regan, Angie
Ricci, Claire Sylvestri, and Jean
Ward, are all girls who have bowled
for WAA credit.

Before Gentlemen

The spirit smiles again in the
frosh direction as the men of "48
hail into view. Bill Barrington, All-
American, and Hank Farley of the
Thunderbolts are sure to be high
scorers. Hansen, Heinan and Cocuz-
zi of the Whiz Kids are all straight
bowlers, John Bolles and Bill Bald-
win, the other members of the frosh
team have steady scores to back
them up.

But the Spirit admits that the
Sophs have a formidable record. Hal
Weber, captain of the group !, cer-
tain to prove a high scorer, and
Whytock, another All-American, has
the highe record in the MAA
league. Hess and Zippen of the
Flashes, are straight bowlers with
creditable scores, while Mallory of

WAA Does Cartwheels
All For The War Effort

Have you noticed people stealth~
ily pinching their pennies and
sneaking around with all-know-
ing looks? They have probably
heard from confidential and
usually relie ble sources that WAA
is going to have the stamp booth
next week and for the three days
before (deep breath, sigh!) vaca-
tion!

Here is your chance to get rid
of all that spare cash you have
lying around your room. Why not
clean it all out? Start your
(sigh!) vacation with a clean
slate, empty pockets, and a full
stamp book.

Since WAA is notorious for its
athletic ability, it is offering to
do a handspring for each 10c
stamp bought, and a triple som-
ersault with each 25c stamp.

The Sports Staff did contem-
plate buying a War Bond via 10c
stamps, but after pooling their
resources, they discovered that
their total capital consisted of
19¢.

So let’s put on a real drive

and get behind WAA.

Hilt Announces
Ping Pong Plans

The WAA Ping-Pong tournament.
which has made considerable pro-
gress in the last week, is scheduled
to be completed the Monday be-
fore Easter vacation. This means
that the remainding three games of
the first round, which have not as
yet been played off, should be com-
pleted this week. This will enable
the second and third rounds to be
completed by the end of next week.
The fina] can then be played on
Friday or Monday of the last week.
Weiss Is Favorite

Ray Weiss continues to stay in
the lead, after defeating Julie Col-
lier and Bertha Wakin in the first
and second rounds, Ray seems to
be the favorite, even though it is a
little early to start picking winners.
First Round Results

A few more games of the first
reund have been played off this
week. Bernice Cohen defeated Pat
Tildon; Diehl lost to Skelton and
Bushnell beat Doris Egerton. Jean
Connor «defeated Barbara Bishop;
and Shopie topped Sue O'Connell,
The prize of the week for “all deuce
games," goes to B. R. Hilt, who de-
feated Gette Dunn in the final
game. Lengyel won over Boynton,
in the first frame; Now defeated Ef-
fley, in one of the first round play-
ofs.

The second round started Thur:
day, but so far only one game has
been played, Weiss taking the final
game from Wakin

Phi Delt Bowlers
Still Undefeated

The number of games played in
the WAA bowling league so far has
not been enough to determine team
and individual scores. As it now
stands, Phi Delt is the only team
still undefeated, with a total of
four games won.

Standings

The present league standing is as
follows: Won Lost
Gamma Kap 2
AEPhi
Sayles .
Chi Sig
Phi Delt ..
BZ .
KD
Moreland
Psi Gam ..

Last week eight teams bowled two
games each, with the exception of
Sayles and BZ, their games being
forfeited by BZ. The other con-
tests were between Chi Sig and KD,
Psi Gam and AEPhi, and Gamma
Kap and AEPhi. Chi Sig, Psi Gam
and Gamma Kap were the winners,
each team taking the first two
games.

Tuesday's Games

On Tuesday of this week KD
bowled Phi Delt, Gamma Kap
bowled Psi Gam, and AEPhi bowl-
ed BZ. In the KD-Phi Delt tilt,
KD bowled a first game of 741.
This is the highest score bowled in
any game by a team in the WAA
league. The second game has not
yet been decided. The outcome of the
Gamma Kap-Psi Gam contest is not
final. Gamma Kap won the first
game, but the scores of the second
game have not all been handed in.
AEPhi won from BZ, taking the
first two games.

Judy Dube states that the bowling
schedule will be completed before
Easter. Those who are working for
WAA credit must also have their
scores in by that time.

Sayles Explains

Use Of Lounge

Student Council met Monday with
Dr. John M. Sayles, President of
the College, for the last meeting un-
Ul after vacation. One of the topics
discussed was the misuse of the
lounge by the students.

Dr. Sayles explained that there
is a general misconception of the
purpose of the room. The Lounge
is supposed to be a social room—a
place to talk and relax. There are
no quiet hours, and no one ts sup-
posed to sleep there. Students who
wish to rest may use the recovery
room, and there are ample facies
in the library for studying. From
now on Campus Commission will
enforce this ruling.

Student Council is investigating
the possibility of securing a radio
for the Lounge so that students
can listen to news broadcasts and
other programs during the day. Also

under consideration by the Council

is the question of requiring all in-
coming freshmen to wear beanies
on certain occasions, Members of
the investigating committee _ are
