STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1945

— By MARY LIZ SULLIVAN —

That was a nice game—it must
have been—everybody says so, The
frosh-Myskania game we mean, Of
course, we would have liked it much
better if one of the teams had
sccred but maybe that will happen
anotner time—and from the: looks
of the frosh challenge this morn-
itig, we may expect to have another
soon. But there's the possibility
that these two teams may have to
take two or three weeks off before
tuiey can play another game. From
tne groans heard as we walk along
the corridors, and the sight of black
eyes (which incidentally are rather
embarrassing especially when the
kids in the classroom look wistfully
up and say, “Miss Ber- - -, didn’t
we see you playing football yester-
day?”) we would judge that maybe
a rest period would not be laughed
at, Then there are those we call
professionals , . .

If we may, we'd like to make a
little suggestion concerning the
throngs that watch the games. It
seems that several times in the
course of the game, the runner was
forced to run into the crowd in an
effort to get by the secondary. The
crowd had moved in and narrowed
the field, so that side plays were
almost impossible to make, The
field wasn’t marked, and that may
have been the excuse,

About Predictions

Notice please the wonderful pre-
diction that Hess made in his col-
umn this week—he predicted that
Detroit would win the World Series.
This is even more astounding since
his column had to be in Tuesday
morning. Witness all those other
horrible predictions in former years
that made our faces so red, and
maybe then it will be understood
why we were so happy for George
when the Serles ended the way it
did, We must confess, however,
that it didn’t end the way we want-
ed it to end—yes—the awful truth,
we really wanted Chicago to win.
Oh, well, maybe next year the team
we bet our perfectly good nickel
on will win,

Football Fun

There seems to be some kind of a
football craze that's hit several of
the group houses—and that's good
or is it? Everybody is challenging
everybody else to a game of foot-
ball and it sounds wonderful. One
of the group houses has figured out
a system—each of the four classes
represented in the house is getting
a team together, The frosh will
play the Sophs, the Juniors play
the Seniors and the winners of these
games will play each other, This
seems to be a very good idea, This
way, the Whole house is disabled at
the same time, simplifying matters
greatly. The doctors could make
the rounds in the same day. Psi
Gam is also thinking of challenging
Chi Sig to a game which will prob-
ably end up as a free for all with
V.L, Milne and Med. subs.

Sports should be played as they
tend to foster a relaxed feeling on
the part of the participants—build
up muscles, and promote sports-
manship.

Nice game football!

Don't forget—all those frosh who
are interested in trying out for the
Sports Staff of the Ne sign up
tomorrow — Activities Day, in the
Commons. Those who have already
stated they wish to tryout, must
also sign up. Later in the semester
the people will be notified with
regard to cub classes and actual
sports writing, Remember—sign up!

(Continued from page 4, Col, 4)
nearest It has ever come to actual
completion, The players narrowed
down to Gerry Callahan and Flo
Garfall, Because of numerous mix-
ups in dates, this game was never
decided. If the tournament was
completed this year, the tennis cup
might again come into circulation,
Playoffs Urged

Bince only one game has been
played so far, Gerry Callahan, ’47,
and Wanda Tomasik, '48, urge that
all first matches be played off by
the middle of next week.

yskania Frosh Football Game
Ends With Score Tied 0-0

Seymour, Seaman
Sparkplug Team

By ART KAUFMAN

In a hotly contested football
game the Myskania Marauders and
the high spirited Crimson Tide of
‘49 played to a scoreless tie, The
opinion of the spectators showed
that the Crimson Tide was the su-
perior team throughout, They out-
played Myskania in every field and
had control of the ball most of the
time. Their running attack was
cleverly executed only to be slowed
down by the sloppy condition of the
field,

Stittig kicked off for the Orimson
Tide and the ball was taken by
O'Neil on the Marauders’ 35-yard
line. She carried it to the midfield
stripe where she was swarmed over
by the whole frosh team. Here the
Crimson line held and Myskania
was forced to kick on the fourth
down, On the exchange of punts
Myskania gained 10 yards, The
frcsh then took over and made the
first down of the day on a pass
from Seaman to Glover.

Second Quarter

In the early part of the quarter
Seymour returned Stittig's punt to
the 20-yard line of the Crimson
Tide. Myskania began to move
goalward and made their only first
down of the day, moving the ball
down to the 5-yard line, At this
point, the Crimson Tide line, con-
sisting of Cook, Harris, and Glover,
made a goal line stand and held
the Marauders back, Here, the
Crimson team took over, forced to
kick from the end zone. Stittig got
oft a beautiful kick that carried to
the 40-yard line. Myskania began
to move once again only to be
thwarted by the superb defensive
ability of the entire frosh team,
Third Quarter

The second half opened with Sey-
mour kicking to the 40-yard line of
the Crimson Tide, The frosh then
began to move on a series of spin-
ner and reverse plays with Seaman,
Whelley and Sittig carrying the
ball, Whatever gain made was
nullified by holding penalties, Later
in the quarter, the Crimson Tide
put on a scoring threat when Molly
Whelley recovered a fumble on the
Marauders' 25-yard line, This
threat was dampened by another
penalty for holding.

Fourth Quarter

‘The early part of the last quarter
found the Crimson Tide penetrating
deep into scoring territory. The
Marauders staved off the march
with Berbrich and O'Neil sparking
the defense. The climax of the
game came in the closing momen’
when Stittig returned Seymour's
punt for what looked like the win-
ning touchdown, only to have it
recalled to the point where the ball

as caught.

Hats Off Department

Hats off to both teams for the
sportsmanship shown in benefit of
the Student-Faculty Tea,

Ditto to Bob Sullivan, Frank
Woodworth, and Jack Tabner, who
gave their time to mold the teams
into shap
Onlooker's Viewpoint

Mickey Seaman was the outstand-
ing player of the day. She did an

lent job of field generalship as
well as minning the ball.

Molly Whelley played a fine de-
fensive game and deserves mention.

Bey Stittig was outstanding as a
punter. It was her punting from
behind the goat line that saved the
Crimson Tide from being scored
upon,

Seymour sparked the Marauders’
offensive. Her passing and kicking
kept them. aliv

Griffin, Berbrich and O'Neil were
all outstanding on the defensive for
Marauder:

Football Tie May
Be Played Soon

The following challenge will be

presented to Myskania today in
Assembly:

“The Class of 1949 challenges
Myskania to a return football match
to be played on the 23rd day of
October, 1945. The same rules shall
prevail as for the game played on
the 9th day of October, 1945, with
the provision that no less than two
referees be in attendance at all
times.”

This resolution was signed by
both Mickey Seaman, '49, Captain,
and Frank Woodworth, '47, Coach.

Thus, it seems that even the frosh
were not satisfied with the results
of the game this past Tuesday.
Whether Myskania will accept the
challenge remains to be seen, but
from the looks of things another
game is forthcoming.

As both teams sustained numer-
ous injuries (mentioned elsewhere
on this page), it is doubtful if
either one will be able to field a
satisfactory team. Myskania is at
a decided disadvantage because of
lack of substitutes.

So, come out, see a good game,
and listen to the bones break,

Margot Requests Students
To Gall For Their Numerals

Betty Margot, ‘47, has asked oll
those who have not as yet received
thelr numerals for last year, to
drop her a note via the student mail

These numerals were awarded to
a few students at the WAA Frolic
for the frosh several weeks ago, but
there are still many entitled to the
numerals who have not received
them,

Numerals are given for participa-
tion in fcur sports for one year.

(Continued from page 4, Col. 5)
Therefore, we predict that the De-
troit Tl will win the 1945 World
Series,

Credit Where It Is Due

Comment on the pictorial glimpse
of freshman pulehritude: "WOW!"
Open Letter to Marilyn Warshaw
Dear Mindy,

It was very nice of you to give
notice to the Incident’ of George
Poulos and the pum, and the nice
things you said about me. But
Unere is one point that needs a bit
of clearing up. That is, the good
looks of the nurses, It would take
a wilder imagination than mine to
call these fugitives from Ripley
pretty, Earlier in the summer
there was one who might have
passed, but her 1.Q. of 19 automatic~
ally disqualified her. So, wolf bait
Is very scarce. Besides, they get
thrown out of training if they date
patients, Otherwise, thanks a lot.

Your boy,
George,

Sprains, Strains Highlight
Unscheduled Football Match

It was a cool, brisk day. Just
ideal football weather. So...
six hardy, stalwart Saylesites
slipped and sweated on the dorm
field Sunday afternoon, to offer
some opposition to Sullivan's
Myskanites.

‘Trick plays and snappy passes
gave the Seniors an advantage
over the disorganized Sayles
squad,

“Slackie” passed to Seymour
for the first touchdown. But
their joy was short-lived as
Sylvestrie snabbed a long pass
from Shapiro and ran the field
for a tally. The ball see-sawed
back and forth with the “sales-
men's” backs against their goal.

Myskania started to roll and
rushed down the field making
three first downs. Griffin snar-
ed a pass for a long gain and
set her team up in scoring posi-
tion. Slackie ran the ball over
for the final touchdown,

The girls rose battered and
bruised, but satisfied that their
scrimmage had been both sooth-
ing and satisfactory.

WAA Begins

Tennis Tourney

Maloney Wins 6-3, 6-
As First Round Starts

The WAA tennis tournament be-
gan this week as Justine Malone,
defeated Delores Lawson, 6-2, 6
in the first game of the tournament
Maloney has a nice backhand
stroke, and ceeded in keeping
Lawson her quick re-
turns. a steady player,
but Ma agility won the sets

The next match scheduled is be-
tween Dunn and Seymour, This
should prove to be an exeiting match
since both are WAA veterans and
more than proficient in many
sports. Senior blues, it seems, must
be responsible for keeping so many
of the stars of previous years from
signing up. Still, there are quite
a few familiar names on the play-
off sheets. Striphas, Hilt, Vernoy
and Effley while not veterans of the
game, look like good prospects.
Frosh Signups

Only four freshmen have signed
up. This ts definitely not in keep-
ing with the enthusiasm that ‘49
has been showing in the sports pro~
gram up to date. It is hoped that
afler gym classes in tennis this fall
and next spring, the frosh will be-
come more enthusiastic about this
sport,

‘Tournament Not Completed

For the past three years, the
tournament has been started but
not completed. Plo Garfall, ‘45,
won the cup in ‘42 and has had it
ever since the final game, Last
year, the tournament came the

We're not calling this column a
guest column, because George Hess
is not a guest—he just has a “leave
of absence” for a while, Also before
reading the column, fix firmly in
the mind that it was written before
the final playoff of the World Ser-
jes, in order to get here in time for
this week’s NEWS!—Ed. Note,

When Ye Editor Sullivan asked
us to contribute a guest column we
immediately decided that here was
the opportunity to deliver a long
needed apology. So here goes... .

Last Spring Messrs. Woodworth,
Lashinsky, Vaughn, Sullivan, Bro-
phy, and about every other male in
State, including Yours Truly, had
a brilliant idea. We had visions of
hordes of men cavorting on foot-
ball field and basketball court. We
were so entranced with that vision
that we actually thought it would
work. Then, like the dreamers we
were, we publicized the whole busi-

ss. It caught on and seemed to

ad like wildfire. The’ Ne
rried a story, with a banner head,
that forecast the return of
intercollegiate basketball.

That wasn’t the end of it by far.
Oh no, we had to have money to
work the thing out. When we cast
about for ideas on raising funds the
thought stiuck us that perhaps the
whole student body would like a
part of it. The light had dawned;
there were no more worries. One

vely Spring morning a collection

taken it: the student assembly.
We garnered enough nickles, dimes
and quarters that Friday morning
to finance a half dozen such cam-
paigns (well, one at least)

The enthusiasm we had was un-
bounded. Form letters were writ-
ten, stenciled, signed, sealed and
mailed. Ah yes! The graduates of
NYS, would send athletes to
their clamoring Alma Mater, There
wasn't a doubt in our minds. But,
as everyone knows, something went
wrong, and there’s where the apol-
ogy comes in. We want to ask for-
giveness for ourselves and our col-
lea We forgiveness for
only 23 males, ood as they may be,

the Class of ‘49. But may the
cry of the Brooklyn Dodgers
be in your hearts; “Wait'll

this tears course
for the Detroit Tig:
are leading in the World Se
p games to two for the Cubs.
We had suffered much during the
seusun just passed. ‘The Giants,
we had picked to win the Na-
tional League flag, had stayed far
out of the lead and eventually fin-
ished fifth, Insult was added to
mortal injury when our other pen-
nant selection, the Yankees, finish-
ed fourth in the American League.
But, we thought, the stumbling,
groping Tigers will never beat a
smooth ball club like Chicago, hence
the tears, Perhaps, with the two
chances the Cubs still have, .

To Climax Campus Day Events

“Calling all Sophs! Calling all
frosh! Man your battle stations!”

Inter-class rivalry will commence
Officially as State's twenty-sixth
Campus Day begins with the ath-
letic events—before the freshmen
and Sophomores are maimed, and
maybe mournful over a lost banner.
Ladies first will prove their am-
bidexterity and prowess in three-
legged relay, shoe, blindfold, old
clothes, and sack races. All Sophs
and frosh will participate, and
there is an opportunity for each—
if one isn’t very good in the other
races, she gets the sack. Then the
men of '49 will pit their football
finesse and_ sports spirit against
that of the Sophs.

When the rival classes have re-
cuperated from the field events,
they will return to the fray to
search for the hidden banners.
Here the Red Devils will find them-
selves in the midst of a “crowd—a
host of Golden Daffodils.” Never-
theless they are required to leave
their pitchforks home. Only the
most subtle methods of mayhem
will be missed by Myskania. Sparky,
John, and McClintock will try to
conceal the '48 banner in such a
way as to baffle the green Red
Devils and send them home feeling
very blue.

In the evening, Queen Mary, last

that chem lab (in Rensselaer this
time, not Huested), and place the
circlet on the newly elected queen.
Only at 8 P. M. will the student
body learn the identity of the one
chosen, as the strains of “Pomp and
Circumstance” usher her in with
her court, From her vantage point
on the stage, the new queen, radiant
in satin, ermine, and sparkling
crown, will reign over the class
skits in state.

In describing the Sophomore skit,
the chairman said, “It will be ab-
solutely the most scintillating,
stimulating, stupendous, super-col-
ossal display of Sophomoric talent
ever presented to the reigning
queen. The frosh won't even need
to give a skit—" Here she ran out
of breath, and a freshman, ready
with a fresh supply, exploded with,
“All of us are working hard on ours,
and it can’t help but be a rip roar-
ing success, judging from the suc-
cess of the past appearances of the
frosh.”

Statements like these are known
in the Old English period as the
heroic boast, and are in line with
the best heroic tradition.

After the presentation of the
skits, the students will receive the
decision of the judges, and grand
finale will be dancing in the gym,
where the classes will celebrate the

Junior Class Will Feature

The Class of '47 will bring to
State next spring one of its lost
traditions.

For the first time since 1943,
the green is coming through to

predecessors. In fact, plans are
now underway for a Junior
Prom Weekend to be held next

weekend events.

Gemmell Leaves
College Faculty

Mr. James Gemmell, Instructor
in Commerce, will leave State Col-
lege November 1 to take up his new
duties as Associate Professor in
charge of Business Education at
Pennsylvania State College.

Mr. Gemmell began teaching at
State in January, 1942. He received
his Bachelor of Science in Com-
merce at the University of Wyom-
ing and obtained his Master of Sci-
ence degree in Education here at
State. Mr. Gemmell is now doing
graduate work at Syracuse Univer-
sity and expects his Doctor of Edu-
cation degree from New York Uni-
versity this summer.

Mr. Gemmell holds a membership
in the Professional Organization
and in the National Honoraries in

sometime this summer.

Commenting on his stay at State
College, Mr. Gemmell said, “I have
enjoyed my work at State very
much and I consider the State Col-
lege student of high caliber. It is
my opinion that there is going to
be a tremendous change in all the
departments, particularly in Busi-
ness Education, For a State Col-
lege, an instructor enjoys a degree
of academic freedom here that is
not found in most State institu-
tions.”

There Comes A Time...

. in every young woman’s life when she steps
out of the cracking shoes of the adolescent into the
brand new garb of the adult, To most girls, this
transition takes place when she leaves home for
the first time to attend college. It is then assumed
that she recognizse her responsibility as an adult
and endeavors to fit into society gracefully, though
gradually, without the guidance of high school
faculty and parents.

It is unfortunate if the young lady is thrown
into another cloistered environment with someone
else to watch every movement with an eagle eye
and point the way. The girl is deprived of the
opportunity to find out for herself what is expected
of her socially, and every other way, if someone
assumes the role of guardian angel and dictates the
girl’s daily activities, step by step, from the time
she gets up in the morning until she retires, Most
intelligent adults are aware of the fact that it is
poor psychology to ridicule the natural desire for
a reasonable amount of independence.

‘There are some rules that even parents and high
schools do not y enforce as such, They have
learned that example and suggestion are much more
effective. Few mothers would post the rules of
Emily Post on ettiquette over the dinner table. They
would give the girl credit for intelligence enough
to realize that social failure would ultimately de-
velop with complete ignorance of table ettiquette.
Even if such a list were posted, it would not be
as minutely interpreted as: alads may not be
eaten until the soup dishes have been taken away.”

‘There are many other privileges adults usually

enjoy, Ordinarily, they choose their own company
at dinner, rather than s ding to a seating
chart, At colleges, particularily, girls often sing
during meals, [t is part of the college spirit we are
striving to maintain, [f the girl i

ences in personality and interests, finds herself un-

, Furthermore, by the time a woman reaches the
age of eighteen, she usually has developed her own
t which she displays in little ways such as the
arrangement of her room, ‘That is one way in
which homesickness is often avoided. She creates
her own environment to suit her own personality.
If her taste is poor, she will find out soon enough
from the other girls of her age whose opinion she
respects and desires favorable.

‘These are some of the things that often result in
a retarded development of girls to women. But
they could never occur here, Could they?

And The Last Shall Be First

When guest artists are brought to State and
sponsored by the Student Association, why are so
many of the best seats reserved for outsiders? At
the Dickson performance last week, a great many
reserved seals were empty until the concert began

those who came early had first choice of the poorest

College Close-ups

By CULLINAN & HILT

Titere is no expedient to which a
man will not go to avoid the real
labor of thinking.

Today is election day.The students
who are in assembly (for others
find voting a bit too strenuous) are
waiting to receive their ballots.

Joe sits passively in the corner,
We had to come today—cuts were
piling up against him. Class presi-
dent, representative to Student
Council? What does he care about
them? How could they possibly af-
fect him?

“Ah, here's a name that sounds
familiar—that cute blond trick.—I
saw her at the Boul the other da:
Might just as well check her name.”
With that, Joe lines up the rest. of
the names alphabetically and settles
down to finish studying for a His-
tory 4 test,

Susle can’t wait to gct her bal-
lot. The upper classmen put her
straight last night. What was that
they said to do? Put your last choice
second! She can’t understand why,
but they said it would eliminate any
powerful opponents

Bob's also ready to check his vote
“That guy Al sure gave out with
some gags in his campaign speech.
Might as well have him keep us
laughing for the rest of the year.
So Bob checks Mr. Funny-Man and
cnsiders his democratic privilege ful-
filled.

Say, there’s Ellen! Her pencil
seems to be hitting an all-time high.
That's because she and the kids have
had this planned for months.

They're really on the ball. Hav-
en't they been getting supporters
lined up for weeks?

‘There are only a few of the meth-
ods through which student leaders
are elected on our campus, There
are others—popularity, unconscious
selection, careless nominations, and

political machines. Occasionally, one
even sees evidence of democratic,
intelligent voting,

Seriously, fellow students, with
freshmen elections in the offing and
further offices to be filled during
the year, isn’t it about time we re-
alized that if we want good student
leaders, we must have good student
thought? The preferential ballot is

offer unusual opportunities for stu-
dents to gain experience in democra-

they will use these principles time
and time again in their high jools
throughout the State. If students
here have no desire to participate
in college elections and profit from
our parliamentai ideas, how can
they be expected to infuse the pro-
per spirit of Americanism into the
junior citizens of today?

What will happen to our democra-
tie tem in this nation if teacher
supposedly leaders toward intelli-
gent thought, carry this placid at-
titude into their different communi-
ties? Will a mere college diploma
awaken this desire in all graduat
It seems to us that, unless every
person takes advantage of voting
privileges here at State, fulfills his
duties and upholds his rights, our
future citizens will be a detriment
to our country.

So come on Frosh. You are next
on the voting schedule. Think of
yourselves, elect truly capable lead-
ers, and show us one of the most
outstanding elections in the history
of State College!

Cocheyed Wardld

The recent American struggle
to retain the “secret” of the atom
bomb may mark the last spasm of
the theory that scientific super-
iority is eternal self-protection. The
process of swelling one’s own power
"till one is the atest” or the
“best” or the “fiercest” has been
active since the first caveman made
a bow and arrow. We suspect his
psychology set the pattern for the
owner of the first gun, the first
flame-thrower, the first submarine
or the ifrst airplane. He must have
felt. mighty invincible, when he con-
sidered that Alex the treeman didn't
have a bow and arrow.

But he, of course, got disillusioned,
Alex sooner or later made a bow
and arrow. Eventually, the two had
an argument, and instinctively
reached for their weapon Tf their
pals tried to help out, they prob-
ably conducted the first war of man-
kind. At the end, htey hadn't set
tled much but somebody invented a
new weapon, the victous le got
under way.
History teaches little

This strictly unorthodox review is
not intended as whimsy, It hit us
with new force this week how tre-
mendously little we've learned in
the course of a great many centur-
ies, Apparently the learned
in Washington, London, Mo:
Podunk Center haye come
same conclusion. After huffing and
puffing, like the frog that wanted
to be a bull, and scowling eastward
tward Moscow, and incidentally as-

uring ¢ ‘ybody that we could be
trusted with the secret of the atom
bomb —suddenly we notice: 1) Tt
isn’t we secret any more. Lots of peo-
ple know about it, ‘And notic
how exclusive we were being, they
were working harder and longer (o
perfect their data.) 2) Some people
didn't believe us when we snid of
course Uncle Sam could

trusted not to use the atom
bomb indiseriminately, (ld, note;
why should they?)

SHIRLEY SIEGEL PASSOW

‘Truman issues plan

Now there are hints that maybe
we should turn over our information
to some central international body,
President Truman issued a four-
pint understatement, recognizing
that research would soon bring oth-
er countries up to date on atomic
production; that Congress should
devise and administer a national
policy on atomic energy; that pri-
vate enterprise under givernment
control should produce atomic ware
and finally, that diplomatic nego-
tiations should begin immediately
‘for international control of the
atomic bomb.

Foresight Impossible

It is sometimes impossible to see
the events that chain a tiny inju
tice to a mighty horror. When Ja-
pan attacked Manchuria in 1931, the
world did nothing: it was none of
our business. We reacted in the same
manner and for the same reason
when Italy invaded Ethiopia; when
the Nazis butchered Jews, liberals,
Catholics, dissenters; when fascists
and republicans fought it out in
Spain; when—the list grows inter-
inable unconseionably — long
There came a day when it was our
business, And eventually there came
day when tiecording to a Gallup

» poll) 85% of the Americans polled

felt it was right and just and shrewd
for us to wipe out cities of civilians
with one atomic bomb, “Think of all

CONCERNING NAVY DAY

On Wednesday of this week, the aircraft carrier
Enterprise led a ten-ship flotilla into New York Har-
bor. By the time Navy Day is here, New York will
be a literal Rhapsody in Navy Blue, much to the de~
light cf the native New Yo (not to mention the
sailors themsely ) But don’t worry and brood
about being stuck here in this little town while the
vy goes to New York, for lo and behold, we hear
that Albany too will get her share. In ca: you
didn’t know, the U.S.S. Alecto docked at the port of
Albany last Tuesday. Its crew of 60 men is only a
preview of things to come, for we are informed that
by the time Navy Day rolls around, the rest of a
flotilla compr! of eight ships will have sailed into
our litle port at various intervals. From aboard these
eight ships will emerge 500 gorgeous creatures in Navy
blue, intermingled with 50 officers also uthed in
materials of the same hue. Hurrah for the end of
the war! Hurrah for Admiral Halsey! Hurrah for
Navy Day! (Now put away that lipstick, roommate,
and don’t be so BOY CRAZY...)

SPEAKNG OF THE NAVY

of his voice, “will do so immediately!" In a body,
the roomful of tired sailors dashes out and heads for

to work in a hotel and my witty busboy stuck his
head in through the kitchen door (he had a very

— By MARY LIZ SULLIVAN —

+ Too bad about there not being
any more football for woman—they
just love that game! Maybe we
could use that new system here in-
stead of touch football. The new
system is called “look” football. In-
stead of touching or tackling the
member of the opposing team, the
one nearest the person who 1s car-
rying the ball merely looks at him
and it’s called a down. In this game
it has never been known for any-

WAA Plans
SplashParty,Tea,
Winter Sports

At the WAA Council meeting held
last Wednesday night, fall sport
captains were announced. Plans
for a WAA sports night and the
WAA tea were formulated. Volley-
ball as a possibility for a rivalry
‘sport was considered, but no final
decision has been made. A WAA
Splash Party was discussed, and Pat,
Tilden, newly elected captain of
swimming is in charge. Other fall
sports captains are:

Basketball — Sweeney, Baker,
Quinn,

Life Saving—Craig. ,

Bowling—Campbell, Winters,

as some of the players in an attempt
to make a touchdown, go around in
dark glasses vefusing to look at any
members of the other team. Some
of the players may call this unfair
and begin to start a rumpus—but
there’s nothing in the rules against
it—so all we have to do is change
the rules and we'll have a good
system,

The printers, by some streak of
fate, happened to be reading this
page last week and they couldn’t
believe that the “gals” up here were
really playing football. It so hap-
pens that they print RPI’s paper
and suddenly got the bright idea
that a game between State girls
and some RP? fellows would be a
perfectly wonderful idea, We fin-
ally convinced them that it would
not be such a good idea so that
took care of that. Judging from
the results of the last game that
was played, it really is a wise idea
to call off all such games where
there would be any type of rivalry
or a determination of one team or
the other to win. (Some of those
kids still hayen’t recovered.)

Tsk Tsk

Is there a gambler in the house?
‘Cause if there is, we're willing to
bet that the tennis tournament
won't be played off this year either.
That poor chart is just hanging
there and no one ever writes any-
thing on it. If some one would
only dig up that silver cup and
shine it up, maybe that would be
an incentive for those kids who
signed up to really play those
games, There's still only been one
little play-off and the first round
was supposed to have been played
off by the middle of this week—
there goes a perfectly good tennis
tournament—

About Basketball

Then there’s that little matter
about basketball that everybody
had counted on so much this year.
Seems as though the plays that are
being put on are taking all the
available men that would be used
for basketball so the fellows can't
come to practice. Well the play's
the thing they say, and we suppose
there will be another year of plays
and no basketball, Last year we
didn’t have the men, this year we
have, State wants a team and we
could have it. Well how about it
fellows—let's get going.

Suggestions

We keep getting more suggestions!
Wanna hear 'em, Well—one js that
we have a joke section on fourth
page. Now we don’t exactly know
how to take this suggestion, but the
general idea is that we set aside a
few inches each week and use old,
new (and maybe otherwise) “funny
remarks” taken from other papers,
O.K. if you really want to laugh,
Another bright idea is that we start
@ gossip column, Now whether that
was meant for fourth page or not
who knows — got any dirt Myrt?
Anwyay, to get back to the point,
whaddaya think? Should we tell
Jokes?

Repetition

And did we mention how nice the
WAA bulletin board looks—we did!
Well that’s O.K., we'll mention it
again—because it certainly does,
That is the reason why everybody
keeps signing up. Well good!

hired. After the ride, refreshments
will be served in the gym and en-
tertainment will be provided by
WAA. Just imagine hot chocolate
and doughnuts after several hours
in the brisk autumn, Such
WAA stars as Sweeney, Margot,
Mastrangelo and Diehl, producer
Mary Seymour and General Chair-
man Betty Margot promise a gala
evening.

WAA Tea

The next WAA event is the WAA
Tea on November 15th which is a
reception for the freshmen and all
upperclassmen interested in sports.
This tea is to acquaint the frosh
with the WAA personnel and the
workings of WAA as one of the
leading organizations of State Col-
lege. The various sports will be
explained and group discussions will
be held at the tea. Any questions
the frosh have concerning WAA or
its sports program will be answered
at that time. It was suggested that
a fencing match be the main feat-
ure of entertainment. A skit will
be put on by WAA talent. Mary
Quinn, ‘48, is general chairman of
the affair.

Awards

Awards for WAA credit were dis-
cussed and it was decided that the
following awards would be given:

Four sports for one year—Class
numerals,

Four Sports for two years—WAA
Tee Shirt.

Four sports for three years—WAA
key.

The award for four sports for
four years has not been definitely
decided upon, but there will be an
award this year,

The Council was of the opinion
that this fall and winter sports pro-
gram is general enough to appeal
to a majority of the student body.

Camp Johnston
Rules Changed

rules were
to Camp

The following new
made for future trips
Johnston:

1, No person may go to Camp
Johnston on WAA money more than
one time during the year. This
rule would allow more people to get
the benefits of WAA money.

2. No WAA credit will be given
for trips to Camp Johnston, How-
ever, those who needed one more
sport to get thelr numerals last
year will be allowed credit for go-
ing to Camp Johnston,

3. Camp Johnston captains are
Van Auken, '47, and Boyenton, ’48,
and one of theh must accompany
all groups going to the camp. How-
ever if neither of the captains are
able to go, they may appoint a
member of WAA Council to go in
thelr place,

4. All groups desiring to go to
Camp Johnston must first secure
the permission of Mary Seymour,
WAA President, and must post
list on the bulletin board at least
two weeks in advance of the trip.
This is to Insure the group of their
date and to give WAA time to ap-
propriate money for the trip.

5. A minimum of ten people and
a maximum of twenty may go to
Camp Johnston at one time. This
is so all people who want to go
have @ chance and the WAA money
is able to benefit a greater number
of people.

"47 -'49 Football Team
Beats Senior-Soph — Squad

Sullivan, Nichols
Pass For Tallies

The annual football classic be-
tween the sister classes was held
last Wednesday, at 4:30, on Page
Field. The team of 47 and '49 de-
feated their opponent, the classes
of ’46 and 48, 18-12.

Both teams had a good line of
defense to stop running plays, but,
were a little weak on passing de-
fense. It was a clean, well played
game, with very few penalties being
called,

Sullivan kicked off for the ‘46,
’48 team, and Dunn returned it to
the 25-yard line. From this point,
the team of ‘47, '49 marched down
the fleld for the first score of the
game, the tally coming as a result
of a series of passes, with Nichols
and Woodworth doing the tossing.
The try for the extra point was
missed when Dunn's toss to Thayer
was knocked down.

Woodworth kicked off and Bolles
returned the ball to the thirty-five-
yard stripe. After two incompleted
passes failed to net any yardage,
Sullivan heaved a long one to Bol-
les for the team’s first down. On
the next play Bolles, on a reverse,
made four yards. Here the defense
tightened and the team was forced
to kick on fourth down. The quar-
ter ended with the ball in the pos-
session of the Junior-Frosh team.
Second Quarter:

Both teams were on the defensive
and the ball see-sawed up and
down the field. Mid-way through
the quarter Woodworth intercepted
a pass, leaping high into the air to
snatch the ball from the waiting
hands of Vaughn. He raced thirty-
five yards down the side-line and
crossed the goal-line standing up.
His pass to Dunn was caught out of
the end zone and did not count.
Third Quarter;

Woodworth kicked to Vaughn who
made a beautiful runback to the
mid-field stripe. At this point the
Senior-Soph combination started to
pull a few trick plays out of the hat,
using fake reverses, end runs, and
line plunges. As a result of these
plays they rolled fifty yards to
their first score of the afternoon,
Vaughn carrying it across on an
end run. The try for the extra
point was batted down. The score
was now 12-6 in favor of the '47, '49
aggregation. Holliday kicked to
Woodworth, who after returning it
five yards, slippee on the muddy
gridiron, and was downed immedi-
ately, On the first play, a pass
from Woodworth intended for Grif-
fin, was intercepted by Bolles, who
ran it back ten yards. Here, be-
cause of the advantage of weight,
the Junior-Frosh team stopped all
running plays, and gained posses-
en of the ball as the quarter end-
Fourth Quarter:

Dunn passed to Woodworth for
eight yards and on the next play
tossed to Woodworth for a first
down, Nichols was the next receiv-
er for Dunn's bullet-like pass net-
ting ten yards, Woodworth then
took over the passing position and
threw one to Dunn for six yards
and another first down. Nichols
skirted left end for ten yards and on
the next play passed to Griffin for
eight yards and the third consecu-
tive first down. The ball now rested
on the three-yard line. The Senior-
Soph team, held for two downs, and
on the third down a short pass from
Woodworth to Griffin scored the
final touchdown for the Junior-
Frosh squad,

Nichols kicked off

Even though the outlook for var-
sity basketball for the first sem-
ester is doubtful, there will be an
intensive intramural schedule, The
all stars of this intramural pro-
gram, will make up a varsity team
that will play a light schedule sec-
ond semester.

Varsity basketball could begin
first semester if MAA could get
some cooperation from other organ-
izations as well as from some of the
fellows. It’s too bad when there are
some fellows who are willing to give
up all outside activities to make a
promise a reality, that there must
be others who refuse to give up
anything,

Basketball used to be a part of
State and could again be if some
co-operation were shown.

Sister Classes

To Play Again

The return game between the
class of '47-'49 and '46-'48, will be
played next Wednesday at 4:30 on
Page Field.

It is expected that the same line-
up will be used as in the previous
game last Wednesday. If both
teams play as well as they did Wed-
nesday, it should prove to be an
exciting game, possibly with a dif-
ferent outcome. The Senior-Soph
combination had a few trick plays
which they used to their best ad-
vantage in making their first score
of the afternoon. If these plays are
blocked by the frosh-Junior squad
next week and no new plays are us-
ed, then the outcome of the game
will be definitely towards '47-'49,

The '47-'49 rooters will be count-
ing on Woodworth, Thayer, Dunn
and Nichols to come through with
several touchdowns, while the Sen-
jors and Sophs expect to see some
fast passing and running executed
by the Sullivan, Bolles and Vaughn
trio.

All in all, it promises to be a very
good game so come on out kids,
bring some peanuts and watch the
game.

Warriers Bow
To Passing Skill

Tuesday afternoon on the dorm
field Sullivan's Streaks defeated
Woodworth's Warriors, 32-12, in a
loosely played game. This was the
second game on the MAA intra-
mural football schedule to be play-
ed.

Throughout the game Sullivan
and Nichols played outstanding on
the offense. Griffin and Thayer
stood out as defensive players.

Woodworth, leading his Warriors,
was outstanding in all respects.
McCarthy played a good defensive

game.
Streaks’ Victory

The Streaks victory was due to
the excellent running plays by
Nichols and Sullivan, and the
passes by Nichols where were clev-
erly executed from spread forma-
tion,

The Warriors had a disadvantage
of weight and couldn't stop the on-
rushing attack of Sullivan's Streaks.
Clever Passing

Most of the scoring in the game
was the result of passes. Sullivan
passed to Nichols, Nichols passed
back to Sullivan, who ran for a
touchdown. ‘Thayer tossed the ball
to Griffin for another goal. More
clever passing was executed before
of the other three scorings,
the ball being carried over the goal
line by Nichols, The two extra
points were made by ‘Thayer, Both
touchdowns for the Warriors were
made by Woodworth.

Swimming Class
In The Swim

If you should hear discussions
around school about the wonderful
times had swimming the last week
or so, don’t be alarmed. No one is
dipping into the ice cold water of
the six-mile water works or other
nearby bodies of water, they are
members of the lucky 40 club who
go swimming at the Jewish Com-
munity Center on Tuesday and
‘Thursday nights.

Marion Craig, '48, in charge of
life saving classes, says that so
many have signed up, that they
have had to divide the class into
two sections. The beginners meet
on Tuesday night at 7 o'clock and
the more advanced class at 7 o'clock
on Wednesday.

Swimming Camp

Each year, one member of the
class is chosen to go to swimming
camp during the summer. This
camp is set up for the purpose of
increasing enthusiasm among col-
lege students for swimming as a
sport. Representatives from various
colleges in New York attend the
camp. Upon completion of the
course, they are qualified to in-
struct Senior Life Saving. Prere-
quisites for the course are a sur-
face dive executed from the edge of
the pool and swimming 400 yards
which is about the length of the
pool,

Strokes and Techniques

The first few lessons are concern-
ed with perfecting strokes. On per-
fecting the crawl, side stroke and
breast stroke, along with getting
used to the flutter kick, our enthu-
s.asts are ready to learn the dif-
ferent holds used in the rescuing of
drowning people. Then comes the
written test on technical perfection,
After that comes the actual use of
the techniques learned — the stu-
dents “save” the instructor. If all
goes well, graduation is held in 17
weeks. Sounds hard? It is, It
takes perserverance to go to the
pool for 17 weeks—especially when
it’s cold. Then the ice and wind do
their part in chilling a great deal
of the enthusiasm, A Senior Life
Saver really earns her badge and
shield. At the end of three years,
the physical test must be passed
again in order to renew the certi-
ficate.

With such a large class this year,
it is hoped the enthusiasm the class
has begun with will be maintained
so that next year there will be 40
new Life Savers to grace the beaches
during vacation.

This certificate has been found
to be an excellent ald in getting a
job as counselor at a summer camp
or a a life guard at a summer re-
sort.

Ghostly Night Promised
For Hallowe’en Spirit

Is that a ghost over there?
Or a spook perhaps? Just
around the corner is Hallowe'en
—the day of days—when spooks
and ghosts run rampart, when
everyone puts on strange cos-
tumes and wears a mask to
hide their familiar faces, and
when no one knows or cares
who it is, so long as he remains
disguised and unknown.

Here at State there'll be fun
and frolic for all the spooks.
Last week the Classes of ‘47
and ‘49 had a Barn-Dance
Party completely decorated
with all the Hallowe'en trim-
mings. Tonight the Seniors will
present the first Big-8 of the
season in a true atmosphere of
the ghostly night, including

houses will celebrate the great
