Council Names
Cut Committee
(Continued from Page 1, Volumn 3)
The question of unexcused as-
sembly absences was brought up by
Mary Ann Johnpoll '55, Chairman
of the assembly seating committee.
Robert Betscha '56, suggested that
the students be allowed three un-
excused cuts per semester. Neil
Brown pointed out that one of Dean
Lanford's suggestions for the solu-
tion of the problem is to put the
offender's name on his Permanent
Record Card after his third cut in
the semester. Bill Small '56 sug-
gested that the offender be sent a
warning after his third violation, to
notify him that thereafter all his
cuts will be placed on his record.
Student Council finally decided to
appoint a committee from Council
to meet with Dean Lanford,
By ANN TOBEY
State College has left its im-
print on the United Nations. Two
members of the seminar delega-
tion attending last week stepped
firmly on a gorgeous expanse of
cement, which, unfortunately, proved
to be wet. Thus did we say thanks
for a very valuable seminar!
Eight of us—Paul Saimond, Tom
Eldred, John Granito, Frank Shep-
ard, Bob Riegle, Bob Campo, Dick
Shaper and I—left Wednesday, Oc-
tober 21, for a Seminar on tthe
United Nations, sponsored by the
American Baptist Convention. Two
members of the Albany Council of
Churches of Christ drove and
chaperoned. The two car-loads fi-
nally met at the evening session
at the Carnegie Endowment Build-
ing, at which Godfrey Jansen spoke.
College Issues
Absence Rules
Although the College has no
formal cut system, students are ex-
pected to conform to certain set
regulations, announces Dr. Oscar E.
Lanford, Dean of the College.
The faculty members will report
all absences for freshmen, veter-
ans, students on probation, and
transfers during their first semes-
ter here. These students, when re-
ported, will be listed on the Stu-
dent Information Service bulletins,
and should report to the Student
Personnel Office.
Absences on the part of gradu-
ate students or undergraduates on
the Dean's List will not be re-
ported. Grads with a 2.5 average
for the preceding semester and
Dean's List students may cut
classes on the day before and the
day following a college recess.
Each faculty member will also re-
port absences which are, in his
opinion, excessive for those stu-
dents not in the above categories.
Mr, Jansen, Director of Public Re-
lations for the Indian Mission, in-
terpreted the role of much-maligned
India in the UN. He said India
feels an independent course of ac-
tion is the only right one and the
one which can best serve peace.
Friday morning (one of the few
times we all arrived on time) we
heard hom the U. S. formulates its
UN policy, and went on the regu-
lar guided tour of the buildings on
the Rockefeller Grant on the East
River, Everything is completed ex-
cept the landscaping—and cement
hardening!
After lunch, we again toured part
of the buildings, searching for the
meeting. Finally Chief Scout El-
dred located the lost lecture. This
lecture, on the Trusteeship Coun-
cil, was followed by time for shop-
ping in the Giftshop. We then
listened to special committee meet-
ings—one the situation in Tunisia,
or student exchange, for example.
In the committee I visited, a portly
delegate from Egypt was delivering
a lengthy dissertation on not much.
Listening in languages provided in
simultaneous translation at the
flick of the dial—English, French,
Spanish, Chinese or Russian—was
fascinating. We had dinner and
then listened to Vera Micheles
Deane, editor of the Foreign Pol-
icy Review, speak on American for-
eign policy. She emphasized the
development of the third force, be-
tween the Western Powers and the
Tron Curtain countries. We were
then free, after waiting for one of
our members whom the janitor
stranded between floors in the au-
tomatic elevator—with malice afore-
thought, he cut off the electricity.
Friday we went our various ways
—several to the UN, others to lec-
tures. With a brief meeting for
summary the seminar was closed.
After fighting our way back
through dozens of traffic jams, we
flew up the West Side Highway
and back to our homework.

Council Will Appoint
Committee For Revue
The All-College Revue, assembly
seating and the Inter-Collegiate
Convention were discussed and the
assembly agenda was released in
the Student Council meeting Wed-
nesday night.
‘The assembly agenda for today is
as follows: Rivalry sing, freshmen
apologies, presercation of the as-
sembly cutting plan, nominations
for Campus Queen and general an-
nouncemenis.
‘A cominittee of three: Mary Ann
Johnpcil, Donna Hughes, Juniors,
and Neil Brown ‘54, conferred with
Dean Lanford about the question
of cutting assembly. It was decided
to allow everybody three cuts per
semester and to notify them after
their third cut, that thereafter ev-
ery cut would go on their penman-
ent record card.
Student Council discussed the
All-College Revue and decided to
appoint a committee to choose a
director and a date for the revue.
James Bennet ‘54 moved that
Council select two interested people
from each class to form the com
mittee, which will then elect its
own chairman. Madeleine Payne
then amended the motion to read
that people interested in working
on such a committee would be given
a chance to sign up and the Council
would choose trom that list.
Coan moved that delegates to the
Inter-Collegiate Association Con-
vention to be held this weekend
should not attend the convention,
because there was not enough time
to prepare for it. Madeleine Payne
'54 then suggested that the money
for this conference be used to set up
a students exchange program simi-
lar to the one operated by Platts-
burg. The following committee was
appointed to investigate this pro-
fram: Donna Hughes, Mary Ann
Johnpoll and Robert Coan, Juniors,
and Ann Hamilton and William
Small, Sophomores.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1953
The Vete ns Unite...
During the t several weeks, a group of
resourceful veterans have taken the initia-
tive in forming a new club on campus. They
have held regular meetings, drafted a con-
stitution, nominated candidates for the
election of officers and discussed their gen-
eral purpose and policy. Their next ste)
was fo seek financial support from SA.
When Student Council turned down their
lea for funds from Student Association
Lreanury, it was not because of any disap-
proval on the part of Council of the Vet-
eran’s Society's program; it was because
the request was unconstitutional.
As it stands now, the organization of the
Society closely resembles that of a frater-
nity. Membership is limited to a small
segment of Student Association, which
makes impotent any request for SA funds.
Membership in the society is open to all
those students who have served in the
armed forces and have been discharged
with any discharge other than dishonor-
able. There is no specific requirement as
to length of time in service. Any faculty
who meet this requirement are invited to
be honorary members. Ex-servicewomen
are also invited to join. At present the so-
ciety has thirty active members out of a
total school enrollment of ninety-seven vet-
erans.
The purpose of the organization is to help
veterans at State with their problems that
are peculiar to veterans, to kee} ) members
informed of any news that applies to vet-
erans on reserve, and to aid fellow students
who are facing future military service. This
last point is not to be skimmed over. The
members of the society have offered to help
prospective defenders of the peace with any
uestions they may have about service life.
tt was suggested that open meetings of the
society would provide this opportunity to
disseminate unbiased facts from some of
those who have lived through military regi-
mentation. Every branch of the armed
forces is represented in the active member-
ship of the society. The straight scoop from
intelligent people who have lived through
what most Statesmen will soon face should
be very valuable to Seniors especially.
Another purpose of the organization is
to serve as a social club for veterans. Social
events similar to fraternity functions have
been discussed at meetings. Student Coun-
cil has expressed a desire to aid the Vet-
eran’s Society in receiving recognition al-
though it cannot be chartered under the
Student Association budget because of the
specific limitations on membership. One
way the administration recognizes the ex-
istence of Student Association is through
such important bodies as the student-
faculty Academic Excellence Committee, in
which the students take part in planning
such things as probation penalties and our
new four-point system, Perhaps Student
Association could aid in recognizing the
Veteran’s Society by accepting veterans
willingly into the SA organi:ations in which
they wish to participate.

Miuerua's Temple
By a French Major
I have heard a Teachers College
defined as a place where “imitation
pearls are cast before real swine.”
I personally feel, though, that this
is a rather harsh view, and that it
especially does not apply to this
particular Teachers College.
However, there may be those who
do take this statement as the posi-
tive side of the controversy. If so,
the more power to them, There
can be no improvement in any sit-
uation if everyone assumes a Pan-
gloss, brain-washed attitude, or, on
the other hand, if everyone takes
the attitude that a situation is too
bad to be rectified.

Communications
(Editor's Note.) This letter was re-
celved by President Collins and forward-
ed to us by Dr, Paul B. Pettit, Assistant
Professor of English. We think it war-
rants publication.
My dear Mr. Collins:
Knowledge and appreciation of
the United Nations was brilliantly
advanced by the voluntary contri-
bution of State College through
their First Year Dramatic Class un-
der Dr. Paul Pettit. Their presenta-
tion of “The Story of Interdepend-
ence” on Thursday last in Page
Hall revealed in fast moving se-
quence contributions in the fields
of public health, of Nutrition and
of Economic Rehabilitation, which
have earned for the United Na-
tions an undying appreciation
among the vast bust barely vocal
populations of undeveloped coun-
tries.
On behalf of the City of Albany
and also of the score of civic asso-
ciations united in the Mayor's
Committee for the Observance of
United Nations Week, we wish to
thank you for this significant con-
tribution to work, understanding
and friendship.
Very cordially yours,
Erastus Corning IT,
Mayor of the City of
Albany.
To the Editor:
I got quite a kick out of the lead
line in last week's News story about
the homecoming weekend. ‘To-
morrow an attempt to inaugurate
a new tradition at State will be
made.”
It is my understanding that a
tradition is something that grows
from a beginning in the dim and
distant past. This is the first time
I have ever seen a group which
started out to “inaugurate a tra-
dition.”
The whole emphasis in thiy school
seems to be on having traditions,
not on what they mean. Perhaps a
little thinking about this on the
part of the students would go a
long way toward illuminating such
things as happened in assembly last
week,
Sincerely yours,
A Senlor,
need improvement, and this must
be brought about by all of us. Since
I entered State four semesters ago
many improvements have been
made. These are evident in the
College Catalog and in the com-
parison of the number of gripes
published in State College News now
and then.
My gripe is not about the build-
ings, not about the curriculum, not
about the cafeteria, the library, or
smoke in the lounge. It is about
the general atmosphere prevalent
in the school.
Granted that Albany does not
have unlimited cultural advantages,
and that State does not have a
really adequate sports program.
But students at State don't
seem to be willing to benefit to
the fullest from what is offered.
This doesn’t seem to me a sign
of apathy as much as it does an
indication that we don't have our
purpose in being here fully in mind.
Supposedly we are here to get a
liberal education and to prepare to
transmit this gain to others. To
me a liberal education means, not
a log with Mark Hopkins on the
other end—that has long ceased to
be possible—, it means the acquir-
ing of an awareness of, and an
ability to understand and enjoy,
that which surrounds us. The end-
product of such education should
be a person capable of living in-
tensely, of getting the most out of
both physical and cultural pursuits,
in short an intellectual
Here at State we don’t seem to
be developing this awareness. We
seem merely to choose up sides on
the intellectual-athletic question,
and then reject any other point of
view.
Now why, tell me, can’t these two
groups get together and form a
student body that resembles the
ordinary conception of the student
body of a college? Why must we
sit around getting progressively
more narrow-minded and prejudiced
when we're actually here to do just
the opposite of that?

NOVEMBER NOTHINGS
One segment of the freshman class, the group of
men living at College Heights, has come up with a
mature approach to the yearly frosh election issue.
The election of the freshman class president has never
been too bright a spot in our political picture. With
the exception of the incubent Sophomore president,
the candidates for the office come to the House and
fade from the school picture. In an attempt to elim-
inate this, the boys from the Barracks wanted to have
the candidates for th eoffice come to the House and
present their views on different issues so that the
members would be better qualified to vote. Unfor-
tunately this idea way squelched by Election Ccm-
mission but we commend the boys just the same.
APOLOGY
Another happening relevant to freshmen we cannot
view with such a favorable eye. We are referring to
one of the apologies last week in assembly. Called
to the stage for th esecond time because of an in-
adequate first try, one of the apologizers launched
an attack of vituperation against the Sophomores
and seemed to forget what he was there for. Im-
maturity we can overlook in newcomers to the school;
we more or less exnect it. What we cannot overlook
is a breach of good taste, particularly in the light
that this was the individual's second time around.
Thanks to Neil Brown, who showed his usual good
sense, a two-word attempt was made the third time
that was finally acceptable. How much easier it {s
to go along with the college traditions as we find
them and not try imumediately to change things about.
Suffice to say, the affair didn't reflect much credit
on the freshman class,
THE JOYS OF COLLEGE LIFE
Brubacher seems to be having its share of com-
plaints this year. From the residents, there have been
many complaints about the quality of the food. It
got so bad last Tuesday night that a few of the guys
from across the street were trying to find a spot for
a tote board in the dining room.
From the old residents there is the question of
what ever happened to the ten dollar room deposit
that was supposed to be returned when they moved
out. The people in charge seem to be quite lax about
the heavy task of putting names down on a list and
sending it to Mr. Gelbond.
From the general student body there are complaints
about the lack of work that the Janitorial force is
doing. Wednesday saw the first cleaning of the down-
stairs lounge in many a moon, We were getting tired
of seeing the same old initials etched in the dust on
the piano. This is supposed to be a place that we
can be proud of. The students are doing a poor
enough job making it that without any additional
hel from the paid staff. :
NOSTALGIA
We came away from Homecoming Weekend feel-
ing very well, For the first time in the three years
that we've been in the college, there was felt a definite
School spirit. Starting with the fast and well-played
soccer game and ending with the very enjoyable
dance, it was « fine day's entertainment. Congratu-
lations to Bob Coan and all his assistants for their
good work, It had great success for an initial venture
and holds great promise for the future. And «smack!

CRUMMY COMMONS
With the coke machine back in good functioning
order, the Commons is assuming the look of an un-
cleaned sty again. We don't want to appear repeti-
Hous but Wwe still can't understand why mature college
lents will dirty a place in whic end a Boo
students will dinky &' n which they spend a good
This anomaly is not the only one with college stu-
dents, We always chuckle when we think of Dr
Birr's, “The college student is a very odd exianple
of economics. He puts his dollar down and tries to
get the least for it.”

classes.

The long-awaited super-pro-

(January 12) formerly occu-
pied by the ED plays.
Our famous mad-cap direc-
tor, Zoltan Lennig, declares
joyously that Faustus, begun in

State.
While Nijensky Lennig was

After picking the glass out of
his foot, Arturo Lengivini raised
his baton and began the over-

build a revolving stage, by an

Delayed, but undaunted, that
great director of stage, screen

present this epic on January 12.

Council Reinstates
ICA Delegation Line
At a special session of Student
Council Thursday noon, Council re-
versed its decision of the previous
evening not to send delegates to the
ICA Convention. At this meeting it
was brought out that perhaps the
earlier discussion was unfair.
Upon the motion of Frances Al-
len '54, it was voted to reconsider
the question, and the motion was
passed, 7 to 2. Council passed the
motion feeling that although the
conference may not be directly val-
uable to us, the attendance of our
delegates will maintain the prestige
of our college in the State Univer-
sity, and greatly benefit the other
schools who have less well develop-
ed student governments,
One On The Aisle
By FRITZ CRUMB
Due to a mix-up in the sched-
uling for Page Hall, this next week
will be the last set of plays for this
semester. (The why of this is else-
where in the paper.) But this last
bill ought to be good, for it makes
(or breaks) history in State College.
For the first time, we are going to
have the pleasure of seeing a mem-
ber of the faculty tread the boards.
Mr. Thorstensen will play the part
of Daniel Webster, in Arline Yanks’
offering this Tuesday night. We
have gone over the files and can
find no mention of this ever hap-
pening before.
Don Duclos will finish the eve-
ning with a romance about two of
the most famous poets of the last
century, (And by the way, thanks
Art Faculties To
Exhibit Works
The second exhibit of art works
by members of art faculties of the
State University currently is be-
ing shown at the Teachers College
at Oswego. Previously, it has been
seen at the College for Teachers
at Buffalo and the Teachers Col-
lege at Geneseo.
In a catalog note, the commit-
tee on arrangements states: “No
single schoot of art or form of art
expression is dominant, and many
different materials are in evidence
in this exhibit." In another cata-
log note, President Carlson com-
ments: “This .. . is another in-
stance of how the diversified talents
which are in our facultes can be
united in common effort. It serves,
too, to show further ways in which
the parallel interests of our decen-
tralized campuses can be joined.”
Future dates for the exhibit in-
clude Potsdam, December 1-14;
Plattsburgh, January 6-22; New
Paltz, February 1-14; Oneonta, Feb-
ruary 21-March 8; Albany, March
15-29; Cortland, May 1-15,

the dog for the play, Glad to see
that someone reads this space.)
The AD class, under Miss Fut-
terer, is trying something new this
year. With the dead spot in the
middle of the year (when there are
no plays to work with) they have
worked out a series of lectures,
demonstrations in stage lighting,
make-up, design, and stagecraft
which they will present at some of
the local high schools,
Let's hope that this project will
work out. State needs to get into
the Public Relations field with a
vengeance, and this looks like one
of the best ways we have heard of
80 far to do it
Speaking of publicity, curtain call
for the person, or persors, who
thought up the eye-catching sign
in the Husted hallway.
And while we're at it, we want
to thank all the people who have
done publicity for the AD class
and other shows this year.
Gripe for this week: is there any
way we could get the precenium
arch, and the masks in Page Hall
cleaned? We were sitting in the
hall the other night before the
plays and overheard some people
behind us (who were not from the
college) commenting on the dirt
and dust that have collected up
there for the last ten years. It
wouldn't take much to clean them,
and it would make the hall a lot
more attractive, Any volunteers for

POring Over the Exchanges
While poring this week, we ran
across some invaluable information
revealing ten easy ways to get
through college fromThe Missouri
Miner, Missouri School of Mines:
1, Bring the professor newspaper
clippings dealing with his subject—
any clippings will do, he thinks
everything deals with his subject.
2. Look alert. If you look at your
watch don’t stare at it unbelieving-
ly and shake it.
3. Nod frequently
“How true!”
4, Sit in front (only if you intend
to stay awake).
5. Laugh at his jokes. You can
tell. If he looks up from his notes
and smiles expectantly, he has told
a joke.
6. Ask for outside reading.
read it—just ask for it.
7.1f you sleep, arrange to be
awakened. If you remain after the
rest of the class is gone is creates
an unfavorable impression.
8. Be sure the book you read in
his class looks like a book from
the course (match books for size
and color),
9. Ask any question he can answer,
Avoid announcing that you have
found the answer in your little
brother's 2nd reader to a question
he couldn't answer.
10, Call attention to his writing.

Education Gor Happiness
By THEODORE PEDERSEN
It can be generalized that all
people try to conduct their lives in
a way designed to obtain the max-
imum happiness for themselves.
From this point of view, life is lit-
erally “the pursuit of happiness.”
However, people differ in their con-
cept of happiness and this makes
for great diversities of ways of life
and callings.
There appears to be two distinct
concepts of hapiness among people.
The multitudes of the East believe
life on earth is cruel, evil, and full
of pain. Consequently, their con-
cept of happiness is in negating all
external reality, pain and care.
Once the Easterner has denied the
existence of all things external to

his mind, he finds a profound hap-
piness in the ensuing calm, serene,
and peaceful subjective state. This
subjective form of happiness, call-
ed “nirvana,” does not require an
external influence and is generated,
so to speak, within one’s self. The
jazz enthusiast who becomes “all
gone” while listening to a favorite
piece of jazz, is, at that time, ex-
periencing a degree of subjective
happiness. He has become oblivious
to everything except the music and
his existence.
The other concept of happiness
is prevalent in the West and its
tasis Hes in the external world, the
world outside of one's self. The av-
erage Westerner cannot long en-
dure solitude; he finds the pain of
boredom in that state and is for-
ever trying to escape it by exposing
himself to the influences of the
objective world. He is happy when
others honor him and have a good
opinion of him; he is happy when
he has a wealth of material things
to amuse himself; he is happy cre-
ating, in doing, especially in the
company of others with the same
outlook.
Since the mass of Easterners
have a subjective concept of happi-
ness and the bulk of Westerners
have an objective concept of hap-
piness, we may assume that their
concepts are not products of indi-
vidual thinking, but, rather, that
there are forces ‘unifying the
thoughts of the respective people
The greatest force is environment,
or the total inuuence of family,
friends, teachers, religion, and gov-
ernment upon the individual. It is
clear that an occidental baby rais-
ed in India may become a devout
Pakir; an Indian baby raised in
this country may become a captain
of industry--such is the power of
environment.
The value of the subjective con-
cept of happiness is that it does
not require outside influences to
be enjoyed. Therefore, a famil-
farity with this form of happine
will serve well when solitude is im-
posed and the delights of the ma-
terial world have been worn thin.
Here, then, is a hint to the answer
of the question why Western peo-
ple die quicker if they retire than
if they continue in their work.
Upon being retired, a large portion
of their objective world disappears
and boredom takes its place at a
time when they are least able to
cope with boredom. So they wither,
disillusioned, unhappy, into the ul-
mate escape from boredom
Just in India, and other parts
of the East, we in this country
tend to follow an extreme course in
ent of happiness. The
cannot conceive, and
hence cannot enjoy, the pleasure
and Joy of ownership, accomplish-
ment, fame, and honor, He cannot
appreciate the fundamental foun-
tains of happiness that exist in the
objective world. Consequently, when
not in a state of “nirvana,” he is
unhappy and finally dies having
experienced only a part of what
life had to offer him. Further, his
philosophy is a direct cause of his
short life span. In the United
States, it appears that the majority
of people put all their eggs in the
basket of objective happiness. Con-
» they, too, finally expire,
ly one as-
SS, another
beguing. This aspect would
been theirs if they had broken
the chains of environment that
bound them to their solitary con-
cept
Pull, rich, beautifie happiness is
the mean between the two extreme
concepts—this should be the goal
of all
The xreat, unfor
is nothing more shining
light, brightening the way to a dif-
ferent concept of happiness through
the darkness of environment

| Albany Booters Seek Repeat
Performance Over Plattsburg
Victory Skein At State Five Readies For Opener;
Home Extended Release Schedule For Season
To Nine Straight
The Garciamen will be hosts this
weekend to the booters from Platts-
burg. It cou:d very easily be the
seventh home victory for our team,
as they dropped the Up-staters 5-3
on their home field earlier this sea-
son. The starting line-up will be
the same as last week's, with either
Guglielmo or Pengelly as starting
goalie.
Last Saturday, amidst the cries
of “Arriba” and “Let's go, State,”
the Ped booters shut out Long Is-
Jand U. by a big 5-0 score. Home-
coming Weekend saw not only the
biggest crowd at a game as of yet
and the best show of school spirit
to date, but also one of the year's
best soccer games.
The Statesmen kicked through
their insurance with three big tal-
lies in the first period and then
coasted along with some fine de-
fense. Their other two scores came
in the second and fourth periods.
Luscier, Lindberg Score
The first big point was put in
by “Skippy” Luscier as State took
over the offensive and scored with-
in the first five minutes of the
game. After some rough s w=
ing, Bill Lindberg was awarded a
free boot which he made good on a
fine fake-out of the 1IU_ goalie.
“Skippy” came through again late
in the period, giving the ball the
boot that counted after it had
caromed off both the goal post
and Rocklein's head
In the second quarter the only
tally was made on another penalty
kick by Bill Lindberg. Otherwise,
aside from a beautiful corner kick
by Ralph Adams which just barely
missed the top corner of the goal,
it was a pretty hum-drem period.
Third Period Scoreless
With both teams getting pretty
tired, neither could manage to
score in the third quarter of the
tilt. John Pengelly, fully recov-
ered from a sprained lex which has
kept him out of the past few games,
took over the goalie position from
Tito Guglielmo who hid done a
fine job in the first half. Johnny
made his come-back even bigger
by making a tremendous save on an
LIU penalty kick
State Reserves Score
In the last period, with almost
all of State's reserves in the game,
Rebel Hochmuth booted through his
first score of the year on a free
boot. Another grab by Pengelly in
the last minute of the game just
barely saved the shut-out for Al-
bany.
Some fine wing play was dis-
played by Hank Hull and "Skip"
Luscier and Hughes and Canonica
as fullbacks did a fine job of keep-
ing the ball out of Sta’e territory.
But for some fine headwork by the
Statesmen, particularly on the part
of Johnny Lindbe: the game
might have been a much closer
battle.

could easily be the formula for a

Winner Of Potter,
Summit Clash Meets
APA For |M Title
There were only two clashes this
week in the realm of IM football.
In the Beverwyck field APA took
the SLS gang for a loop, 13-7, and
on the lower dorm field Summit
House held the Mighty Potter
clique to a 0-0 tie.
APA Scores on Passes
APA was responsible for two
touchdowns, the second of which
was a controversial issue on a pass
from Ray Wolfe to Bob Dreher. A
quick pass from Bob Strauber to
Jim Bennett raised the tally to 13
points for APA. SLS threatened
twice during the game, and made
good on a power-packed series of
downfield runs and_ passing by
Jerry Mousso, The TD play was
another pass from Mousso to Stan
Howlett, end. Both teams played
equally well.
Potter-Summit in Deadlock
The Potter-Summit game was one
for the books. Summit played a
deceiving game, opposing Potter's
equally strong defense. Both teams
looked good on defense, but serious
offense was sadly lacking, Either
the offensive passes were poor, or
the intended receiver failed to show
up on time, The breaks were
evenly distributed, though, and it
was the opinion of some of the
spectators that Summit was the
probable victor in the contest, with
Potter going off half-cocked for
an easy winner,
The game was called on account
of darkness with 5 minutes play
left in the last quarter.
The championship game, sched-
uled to be played off Thursday,
will in all likelihood be postponed
in anticipation of the final replay
of the Potter-Summit game.
