‘44-'45 Budget
To Be Discussed
By Student Body
Amount of Student Tax
Also To Be Considered
War-time conditions and raised
expenses have caused a change in
almost every phase of the new tenta-
tive 1944-45 budget which will be
presented today in assembly by Mr
George M. York, head of the Com-
merce Department and representa-
tive of the Board of Audit and Con-
trol. The new individual allottments
have been decided upon after re-
search by each group in conjunction
with the financial board.
‘The prospective total of organiz
tion appropriations is $1,327.36 more
than the total for the 1943-44 fiscal
year. This increase is caused by in-
creased enrollment in some organi-
zations, the establishment of new
groups, and the ater costs of
materials due to war scarcities.
Campus Commission with its new
authority and duties has asked for
an appropriation of $50 to cover es
penses. $73.90 has been requested
by Forum; the said appropriation Ts
necessary since Forum during the
past year has widened its scope to
include a larger membership enroll-
ment and a more expansive field“or
interests.
With only two exceptions, all of
the organizations have requested an
increase in next year’s appropria-
tion. Debate Council will receive
$7 less than as in last year’s budget,
and the $85 allotted to Press Bureau
last year will be duplicated this year.
Perhaps the most important item
to the student body in this morning’:
assembly will be the discussion as
to the price of the 1944-45 Student
‘Tax Ticket. In order to adequately
cover the aggregate ci s, the ta:
tickets would have to cost $14 How-
ever, since there is approximately
$1800 in the accumulated surplus
from the past five or six years, this
money could be used to decrease the
cost of each tax ticket to $12. This
action if voted affirmatively by the
Student Association will be a serious
and important step as this sum
might well be considered the partial
possession of some of the alumni
Before deciding one way or another,
an over-all discussion will be in
order
The new and old Myskania will
preside together in) the assembly
this morning and again next week
The following. or third assembly
after Moving-Up Day, wil be the for-
mal induction of the new Myskania
State Stars To Appear
On Screen In Binghamton
Velvet wraps? No...
Evening gowns? Noo . . .
Broadway Press Agents? Noooo.
But there will be plenty of fun
and excitement, reminiscing and
yas the premier of “To-
morrow’s Teachers” flashes on the
screen in its “out-of-town” debut
in Binghamton on May 26! The
audience will be the Southern
Tier Alumni.
This movie took State by storm,
one of its main features being
the discovery of several new stars!
The charming Janet Baxter was
transformed into the demure and
shy young freshman; Trece Aney,
famed of Page, broke hearts with
“come-hither” smile; will
she-be-May-Queen Giavelli whirl-
ed her tennis racket to early

ast is strictly State!

“EullSpeed Ahead”
A week ago today a challenge was hurled into a
yay, red-hat-studded mist of Juniors—a challenge
to leadership the Class of '45 intends to answer with
reverberations perhaps someday to come throughout
the world.
To work as a unit, to rise above prejudice, to
make the world a better one is our goal, and our
torch. We realize the overpowering significance of
this statement, as we realize that the war is our
indestructible and potent concern
We know, too, that we are an insignificant hand-
ful of people, with perhaps, minds manifested in the
principles of free men our only attribute. But it
is also our heritage.
Most of the men, and some of the women who
started out with the Class of '45 privileged to
go out and carry into battle this sword of their
pioneer patriots—a sword which has now assumed
the form of torpedoes, bombs, P-40) We have
confidence in these members of the Class of '45,
The rest of us must remain here—carrying on,
educ drawing the people together,
combatting the war of words, intolerance, and sel-
fishness—firmly rooting democracy here.
Freedom of choice, freedom of student govern-
ment is ours regarding our own college live
dom which in the great future to come may see the
light on a world-wide scale,
Power to lead is a wonderful gift, Wisely used,
it may guide into the way of better things.
Yes, we're young, we're hopeful, we're enthus-
iastic, we're immature. In our heart and soul, we
know we haven't let ourselves become discouraged
If that is immaturity, we want to stay that way
It's going to seem strange filling the places of our
once-rivals, We've rather gotten used to fighting
with them, kidding with them, relying on them .
And now they're moving out, and we're moving up
There's no use pretending, We'll feel lost. for
awhile, And then we'll go right on ahead onward,
forward, upward to our goal carrying on where
they left off
The century mark for State has passed. Another
century iy beginning where we shall all see deme
eracy as the only government under which culture
can freely expand, learning proceed, freedont sur-
vive, and institutions like State College exists! “The
choice rests with us. Hf we accept leadership: and
temper our power with careful judgement, consider
ation and valuation, then we are good leaders
theoretically
The practibility of our attempts and decisions
remains to be seen. ‘The verification of our leader-
ship ability lies not in what we say, but how much
we accomplish, We have set our goal high enough
so that effort and aggressiveness are indispensible
in order to measure up, Because at the present,
we are just enough of a realist to note that effort
coincides with achievement,

What to say? What's the use, anyway? Who cares?
But still, there ought to be some last word—prefer-

But remember that column you wrote once, about the
type of college student you disliked the most? Joe
Doakes, I think his name was.
Ummm, let's pull out the old Newses of two years
ago... sure enough, here it is. My, you were ambi-

Wonder if it would be a proper thing to do to reprint
it, Sure, go ahead. You know you can’t think of
anything else to write. You know your mind's a

heck, this is the last time, your mind isn’t working—
and here's that old column in front of you. Come on,
come on—the people you've always written this col-
umn for will read it over patiently. The others, you
don't ca about anyway. Nuff said—here goes—the
sad and true story of Joe Doakes, college student
This is the story of Joe Doakes.
Who always did everything Right
He did the Right Things as a Freshman;
He wore the Correct Clothes and he
Moved only in the most Approved Circles
He avoided all the people who did the
Wrong Things, like Reading Books and
Having ideas, and worst of all.
Doing something about them
You can bet your life Joe didn't
Have anything to do with Them
Nossir, he joined the Right Fra-
Ternity, with the Right Fellows.
And, Boy, was he glad!
Sometimes he used to wonder
Because he didn't seem as happy
AS some of the people
Who did the Wrong Things.
But. then, he used to think,
You can't have Everything
Joe was real original,
Joe never Failed a subject, but
You can bet your life he wasn't
Dumb enough to get A’s. Why
He knew that only Stooges get A’s.

Yeah, Joe was a really good guy
Right down to earth, and none of the

About him. He made Myskania, too,
Always doing the Right Thing
That was Joe for you
And when Joe got a job, he got

Stayed at that salary for ten years,
But Joe used to think to himself
You've yot to work for what you get
Joe was real oviginal
He used to hea: once in a while
About how some of the guys
Who joined the wrong fraternity
And didn’t pay attention to the
Right Thing to Do
Were getting places fast
Then he'd get the tiniest sort of

And wonder if he was Dead Right
After all, But, then, he'd think

Juniors Recall
Rare Old Times
In Class Story
Dear Fellows of '45
Junior girls reporting! It's been
hard work carrying on without you
to share the work and the ‘un. We
missed you at the Junior Banquet
and at the Junior Weekend which
might have been. But most of all
we missed you this Moving-Up Day
when we carried our banner down
the steps of Draper to the spot
where every Junior class has stood
looking forward to their Senior
year. We've seen some of you
around and walking down the halls
in your brand new uniforms, the
same halls in which you helped us
lose rivalry in our freshman year.

Surprise. And our apologies to
all Kiley enthusiasts who have turn-
ed eagerly to the hallowed page 4
spot to learn what, words of wisdom
the master has uttered. Your dis-
appointment must have been great
at finding no smiling, friendly face
beaming at you from among the
oats. Yes, we are sorry for the two
of you but the Junior issue is upon
us and '45 takes over.
We would feel out of place as a
columnist if we did not try our
hand at reminiscing, especially in a
junior issue. It's a time-horrid tra-
dition and who are we not to follow
in the assorted footsteps of Byrne,
Kiley, Ryan, Marsh—and even Mc-
Grath and Johnston.

The Great Loss
But no recital of memories would
be complete without a few of the
men of '45. At the risk of being even
more trite than we have been al-
ready, we shed a tear for the days
when there were such things.
There's the story of how Zaccag-
nini kept the fellows at Frosh camp
awake till three one morning telling
corny jokes.
We'd like to pay tribute to Stan
Gipp, who would be writing this
column now, if it weren't for greet-
ings from the president. All we can
say, Stan, is, “Haing an awful time,
wish you were here.”
Dave Griffin was the fast lad who
lost. money for practically everyone
at State, except the oat-binner.
People are still chuckling over “Big
John” Sussina's generosity. It seems
that John was beating his opponent
very badly in a golf match. Being
a noble soul, and noticing what said
opponent was doing wrong, Sussina
corected him. John lost the match.
Remember how down everyone was
when a report came that the lad had
been lost in action in Africa? Two
months later Johnny was back at
school, very much alive. His only
comment was, “I gu that report
must have been wrong.
Mullin, '45's fair-haired boy, took
a lot of good-natured kidding in his
day but he was more than a good
athlete; he was a good sport.

‘45 Demonstrate WAA Softball League
Begins Season
Pep And Drive
Since It’s Arrival
by Marie DeChene
The class which arrived at State
in the fall of '41, has consistently
shown the “pep and drive” lauded
in one of its pep songs. “The Crim-
son Tide” has been, and is, an out-
standing class in all ways, athletics
included. In fact, we began our
athletic career at Frosh camp on
Burden Lake, with swimming, row-
ing, hiking, and tennis enjoyed by
157 girls, Dirty-faced, footsore, and
weary, we returned to State, only
to find that WAA had arranged a
picnic at Indian Ladder for us. We
remembered the bruised shins,
aching muscles, et al, of camp, yet
"45 carried on and entered whole-
heartedly into the rigors of soft-
ball, more hiking, and the uncork-
ing of countless coke bottles.
Now, being fully orientated, we
promptly began athletics in earnest.
Nora Giavelli, the first ‘45'er to
hit the sports headlines, created a
sensation when she competed in the
men's tennis tourney and put up
an amazingly good fight. The so-
called superior sex came to the fore
however, and Fran Mullin finished
as the victor. Flo Garfall began her
athletic career by winning the
women's tennis tourney cup, which,
by the way, she still has, since the
past two tourneys were never com-
pleted.
Rivalry Was Sad
We admit that when it came to
rivalry against '44 we weren't so good,
although we did win softball and the
obstacle races.
It was in our sophomore year that
the “Crimson Tide” really went to
town and overflowed the “Blue
Devils.” Sussina's six-man squad
smothered Chellemi's aggregation
in the rivalry touch football game.
Fran Mullin led his men to a 49-29
vietory over the class of '46, in the
rivalry basketball game, and the
women came out on top by winning
two out of three cage games 36-32,
35-25, to add six more points to our
rivalry score.
And who can ever forget that
hockey game when the intrepid Flo
as goalie used her experience on the
tennis courts and stopped the fly-
ing puck in veritable Alice Marble
style? This unorthodox procedure
saved the day however, for '45 won
the game 3-1, and gained three more
rivalry points.
Rivalry Was Glad
Yep, the class sporting the colors
of red and white shone in rivalry
last year. And we took good care
of that cup, too—ask any Junior!
This past year, probably due to
increasing age, weary bones and
various and sundry other com-
plaints, ‘45ers have not been out-
standingly active in sports. Now, of
course, it's imposible to brag of
Tassoni's touchdowns, Mullin's
court (basketball and tennis) tac-
ties, and Gipp's home runs. So, we
shall have to content ourselve
with women’s sports alone. ‘Th

lay That Baseball Down,
Babe, Put That Bat Away:
The unforgotten men of State
have challenged the slugging
women of the softball leagues to
a little game. If all goes well,
and the male constitutions hold
out, the game is expected to take
place this Sunday morning on
the dorm field.
Catchers’ masks, shin guards,
chest protectors, gloves for both
hands, and bomb-proof helmets
will be part of the attire that
each participant will include in
his defensive equipment.
The results of this tilt are
looked forward to with no little
interest. Spectators are urged
not to throw coke bottles, pro-
grams and other articles which
may tend to annoy the players.
WAA Offers
Spring Variety
Now that the spring sports sea-
son is in full swing, the lists on the
WAA bulletin board display the
names of a considerable number of
proponents of the various sports.
During each entire week, the dorm
field will be the scene of a great
deal of WAA activity.
Badminton, under the direction
of Flip Malloy and Irene McCor-
mick, may be played on the dorm
field on Tuesday and Thursday
from 3:30-5:30 p. m. and also on
Saturday from 10-12 a. m, Volley-
ball also takes place on Tuesday
and Thursday at 3:30 p. m. at the
dorm field. Students who are in-
terested in archery should see eith-
er Sally Whitcombe or Marge Wor-
sley, captains.
Hiking seems to have drawn a
large number of WAA enthusiasts
and several girls have already ob-
tained WAA credit. A group of girls
have scheduled a hike to the Helder-
burg mountains. The group will leave
from Pierce Hall on Saturday at 10
a, m, All those interested in going
should see Jean Davidson, captain.
Riding again takes its place as
an important feature on the spring
program. Anyone interested in this
sport may call the Ranch for re:
ervations or see Peg Schlott, cap-

On Schedule
Seniors Top Freshmen
Sophs Surpass Juniors
The girls’ baseball league has got-
ten off to an unusually good start
this year. The first two games were
played without mishap on the day
they were scheduled.
Last Monday, the freshmen play-
ed the Seniors, to get the season off
to a rousing start. Hennessey pitch-
ed a good strong game for the class
of ‘44. Fielding on both sides was
rather sloppy with the Frosh team-
play just a little worse than that
of their opponents,
Powerhouse Stuff
Hitting throughout the game was
strictly of the slugging kind. The
Senior girls managed to group their
hits more successfully and garnered
a neat 22-8 victory. Mary Domann,
playing for the class of ‘44, was not
the star player for her team.
On Wednesday, the Sophomores
defeated their rivals of last year,
the Juniors, in a well-played and
very enthusiastic game.
avelli and Garfall pitched for
the Juniors. Fillman made the
play of the afternoon on a hard-hit
line drive. There was some doubt
as to whether the spectators or the
star was more amazed to find that
the ball had actually been caught.
Seymour Stars
The Sophomores, behind the sur-
prisingly finished pitching of Mary
Seymour, plowed through at a
steady pace. In the first inning, '45
was put down 1-2-3, in the best Big
League style. Garfall made the
only home run of the game. Our
amphibious, undaunted girls refus-
ed to let rain or storms stop them
and waded through the last two in-
nings to bring the game to a close
The final score stood at 25-20 in
favor of the class of ‘46.
It was apparent, that all the
teams were badly in need of prac-
tice. There was, however, noticeable
improvement over the brand of play
exhibited in the rivalry game of last
week,
Today, the Sophomores are set to
oppose the Senors. The last game
in the league will be between the
Frosh and the Sophs. It is expected
to be one of the highlights of the
season, since a spirit of friendly ri-
valry has characterized all events
between these two classes through-
out the year,
WAA Credit
Georgette Dunn, ‘46, and
Drury, ‘45, are co-captains of bi
ball for this year. Those interested
in obtaining credit for baseball may
do so by turning out for the three
games in which their respective
teams will play in the league. Even
acting as a substitute makes you
eligible for credit.
Lois
Dickinson Elected
As MAA Head
That happy smile that has been
seen floating around the place all
week belongs to none other than
our own Robert Dickinson, '47, new-
ly elected head of MAA. Bob, as
his friends call him, is the first in-
coming sophomore to hold this of-
fice. He won over Art Kaufman,
also '47, who will be his assistant
for the coming year. When learning
of his election, Bob said in his slow
drawl, “Gosh!"
Well Qualified, Huh?
In moving into such an important
post, Bob has many talents that
qualify him, so he says. In high
school he played third base on the
baseball team and also forward on
the basketball squad. Here at State
he gained his first fame by having
his picture smeared all over the
sports page. With all the momen-
tum that he must have gained with
that jump pass, it is little wonder
that he landed his present job.
From football he got back into his
f love, basketball, playing sev-
eral games with the Collegians.
That crowning night he was high
scorer in the classic game against
the girls. He also got a team of
State men to oppose John Coulter's
AC., but his efforts in that game
weren't too spectacular, In six trips
to the plate he hit only one ball out
of the infield.
Great Plans
Bob has already formulated a
vigorous athletic program for next
year. He plans to have the usual
football league in the fall and bas-
ketball in the winter. Basketball
will start in the fall if there aren't
enough men for football. Another
item on the docket is the continua-
tion of gym once a week for those
who are interested.
State Play JCAC
In Return Encounter
The last time the JCAC came to
Albany they lost a softball game to
State. Ready for anything they have
challenged the boys to another
game and will be on hand again
this coming Sunda; afternoon. The
last game w: a thrilling affair
that was close all the way. The
final result was State 4, JCAC 3.
Arnold (Hot Lips) Brown, new man-
ager of the Teachers, promises that
the results of the impending en-
counter will be even more satisty-
ing to the sport fans of the college.
Brown expresses hope that the
dorm field will be opened for use
so that the boys will not have to
face the vagaries of weather for a
second time. He would again like
to enter a plea for a competent um-
pire.

Big ‘Ten Goal
he original purpose of the Big
‘Ten was to purchase a field ambul-
ance. Since it was impossible to
pay for the lance directly, due
to Army regulav.ons, it was decided
that a bond be purchased to cover
the cost of the ambulance, Student
Association later decided that the
money that will be received from the
bond in ten years be used as a
scholarship fund
Last fall, the Big ‘Ten Commitee
set the goal at $1200) When, at the
half-way mark, the proceeds had far
surpassed the , & new goal of
$1780 was decided upon. Since the
$120 goal for each presentation has
been topped by all of them so far,
the Committee expects to exceed the
$1780 net goal. The entire sum
turned in to the Big Ten Committee
will be invested in the b nd
The field ambulance which the
bond will pay for will be ou display
in front of Page Hall on May 30,
at 2 P.M., for students to view
Miss Curran urges that the stu-
dent body attend the service, *
it was the students who ‘d the
money through supporting the Big
Ten, and it is the students who are
spending it." ‘The faculty is also

Todays's Program “Stage Door” To Terminate
College Dramatic Season
Features Movie
Disposal of Surplus
In Assembly Discussion
A composite program including
the presentation of a movie on cur-
rent affairs and a discussion on the
possibility of a Student Union will
be in order today in assembly.
Dr. Michael Dorivaf of the Whe
ton School of Finance and Comme
n the University of Pennsylvania
ared in the Page Hall auditor-
jum last year with his reel on World
v 1, Dr. Dorizaf received so
aL an ovation from the student
bedy which evinced much interest in
his movie that SCA invited hin: to
return to State with is latest up-to-
date films. "The movie will include
scenes from the various battlefields
in Europe and Africa, both still and
action shots,
Student Union Diseuss\
Following the showing of the
movie, there will be a short discus-
sion on the establishment of Student
Union or the expenditure of the sur-
plus in some other manner
dent Union would call for an enle
ment of Farrell House for the pur
pose of providing a place of reeren-
tion for the student body, Student
dances, receptions and offices would
he held in this hall, The approximate
cost of such a project would be $200,-
000 of Which the $1,800 in the surplus
would be the first investment. Each
senior upon graduation would be
asked to pledge $100 to be given to
the college during his first ten years
ts an alumnae, The balance of the
would be paid back in subsequent
hecessary revenue could be obtained

erty of ure Hull, ‘This loan

Two Alternatives
Since most colleges have a Student
Union incorporated in the associ
tion, the probable necessity of one
at State will rest temporarily with
the current student group. If the
surplus is not used in this manner,
it may be utilized for the reduction
of the 1944-45 Student ‘Tax Ticket
or for any other project that the
majority of the student body desires
A financial solution — stating
Resolved: that $40 be appropriated
for the Srare Conirck News for the
maintenance of typew 8 will be
proposed and posted for future vot-
ing.
This assembly today will be the
last one which both Myskanias
will preside, Next Friday the new
Myskania will be formally inducted
and will assume their new responsi-
bilities.

Frosh Week-End
Frosh camp once again will give
way to Frosh weekend for
due to war-time transporta
ditions and facilities. Last year's
three days of informal orientation
for the Class of '47 proved sue
id will be repeated this Sep-
in Pierce and Sayles Halls
and the surrounding field.
The weekend's program has not
as yet been officially released, but
will doubtlessly include — softball
umes, tennis, pillow-fights, and in-
troductions to upperclassmen and
faculty members. The list for coun-
sellors for Frosh weekend is nosted
in Dean Stokes’ office. Interested
upperclassmen may sign up dur-
ing the next few days.
Last week over 110 people signed
up for the position of Junior and
Sophomore guides. Student guides
were begun lo provide a specified
grcup of upperclassmen whose duty
it would be to acquaint the incom-
ing freshmen with the college and
activities. During
y days of the new sem-
eral of these guides coi
duct tours through all the college
buildings explaining the set-up. A
meeting will be held the early part
of next week to choose the leader
for the Student Guide group and
to make the necessary plans for
next year.
Since the C! of “48 will prob-
ably equal the size of the present
freshman class, it is expected that
a larger Student Guide group and
counsellors’ outfit, will be needed
than last year
