FRIDAY, ‘DEC!
POring Over the Exchange
We didn't have to do much por-
ing this week before we found
something that we are sure will
be of interest to State students.
Here it is, in toto, from the Uni-
versity Daily Kansan:
There is a tendency at the Uni-
versity for two students to fall in
love with each other, and since
one of these may be a girl and the
other a boy, it sometimes happens
that they decide to get married.
Recognizing this situation, Kansas
experts on love and marriage have
prepared a quiz to show if two
people are really in love, believing
that emotion is an essential to a
happy marriage.
Here are the questions:
1, Do you sit together at movies?
If you don’t, it may be that you
are drifting apart. On the other
hand, the theater may be crowded.
2.Do you go out as often as
seven nights a week? If you do,
it’s possible that you're in love. It's
also’ possible that you're going
steady.
3. Do you kiss each other good-
night? If you don’t, there’s no
great cause for alarm. Some peo-
ple just don’t like kissing, Besides,
it’s not sanitary,
4. Do you hold hands under the
table while eating in a restaurant?
If you do, this is a sure sign of
Jove, although it does become dif-
ficult to cut the steak.
5. Do your parents approve? On
second thought, who cares? This
quiz is not for the parents, it’s
as the case may be.
6, Do you have common
ests?
question. Do you both knit, play
poker, smoke cigars, use Toni, etc.?
7, Can you agree about financial
problems?
money, which is good to have some
of, If you don’t have any and
neither does she, that's tough.
8, When conversing over the tele-
Phone, do you exchange pleasant
greetings? Saying, “Oh, it's you
ya bum” or “What the heck are
you doing?” is not considered a
sign of affection,
9. Does your lover flirt with mem-
bers of the opposite sex? The one
thing better. Give him or her a
the answer is “yes.”
10. When you have been separated
for a long time, do you miss the
one in question? If you still be-
Neve you love each other after six
years apart, the chances are it’s
real,
And that’s the test for true love.
If you answered all 10 questions
“yes” you cheated. If you answered
“yes” to five or six questions, it’s
love. If you answered “yes” to
only one or two, see your psy-
chiatrist.
Now for a few choice quotes from
college papers around the country.
From the Missouri Miner: Aman

By DICK HANNIS
musical director and resumed ac-
tivities with his own band.
Arranging and Composing
Many of the finest musical ar-
rangments heard on radio, tele-
vision and recordings have been
created by Sy Oliver.
Among the famous artists who
come to Sy for their orchestrations
are included: Frank Sinatra, Bing
Crosby, Tommy Dorsey, Cab Callo-
way, Connie Haines, King Cole, Tex
Beneke, Joan Edwards, Johnny
Long, Art Mooney, Lionel Hampton,
Buddy Rich, Eileen Barton.
Mr. Oliver has also arranged
music for leading Broadway hit
musicals, including “Guys and
Dolls" and “Alive and Kicking.”
Sy has also been active in Hol-
lywood. Some of the motion pic-
tures he has done arrangements
for include: “DuBarry Was A Lady,
“Girl Crazy,” “Fascinatin’ Rhythm,
“Ship Ahoy,” “Las Vegas Nights.
While in the above capacity, Mr.
Oliver wrote arrangements for
many of filmdom’s top personali-
ties, including Gene Kelly, Mickey
Rooney, Judy Garland, Eleanor
Powell and Red Skelton.
Among the many hit songs which
Sy Oliver has composed are: “Yes
Indeed," pus One,” “ "Taint What
You Do,” “For Dancers Only,”
“We'll Get It,” “Dream of You."
Recording
Among Sy Oliver's many achieve-
ments is the fact that he is musi-

Don Cherry, Ellien Wilson, Ink
Spots, Dolores Gray, Evelyn Knight,
Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong,
Arthur Prysock, Ethel Merman, Ray
Bolger, Danny Kaye, Hildegarde,
Roberta Lee, Jeri Southern, Mills
Brothers.
The Creation of a Style
And what a style it is—Original-
ly created for Jimmy Lunceford;
Sy Oliver's “two beat” style is
copied by many of the country’s
outstanding dance bands.
However, none can
master—

The wonderful sound and rhyth-
mic feeling created by Sy is best

State Cagers Aim For Second Straight Triumph
In Tilt With New Paltz Tomorrow Night In Page Gym
Grom, The Sidelines Cagers Roll Up
By BOB ASHFIELD
If all the basketball courts around
the circuit which the Peds will play
on this winter had the same di-
mensions as that of our own Page
hardwood, there would be no doubt
as to State’s superior team. Coach
Hathaway’s men could even go as
far as to go through the rest of
the season undefeated, with their
greatest test, as we see it, coming
from Plattsburg State.
Just to verify this statement, let
us look at the past records of
State—at home and on the road.
Last year State lost 2 games at
home, one to Maritime Academy,
and one to Pratt. On the road they
lost some 7 games. The previ-
ous year, State lost only one at
Page, that being the first game of
the year, again to Maritime, while
losing 6 on other courts. There is
no need to delve further into the
records, as all the results are sim-
ilar to those stated.
Tt is true that playing on a home
court generally results in the ad-
dition of a couple of wins to the
books due to playing on a familiar
court. But when a team holds such
an impressive home record, some
other factor must be the cause. If
we look back over some of the
games that State lost last year
we see that State lost by one point
in New Haven on their big court,
while they turned them back here
decisively. State bowed to the
Utica Tangerines in an overtime
tilt there last year, while winning
easily at home—they, too, had a
respectable size court. Other re-
sults can be cited that point to the
fact that State's grammar school
gym is their toughest opponent. No
team can be expected to do well
on a larger court when they are
accustomer to a small one—and
through the campaign just take no-
tice of how the Peds k up
against their opposition home
and on the road.
To consider the same problem
through another angle—the spec-
tators—we doubt if very much has
has to be said on this. It is im-
possible to sit in the bleachers and
watch a game without having to
use your imagination to overcome
the blind spots set up by those
pillars. It is needless to say that
a better representation of Albany
fans would frequent the games if
we had an adequate court both for
the players and the spectators, be-
cause they would. Comments from
various Albanians confirm this

many teams are already showing
mid-season form.
In loop action last week, the
power-laden Potter Club “nosed”
out Sayles 64-19. The game proved
to be nothing more than a prac-
