STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1952
Common-Stater
By SHAFER and KELLER
FACULTY SHOW! ...
Wasn't it tremendous? It was one of our most mem-
orable evenings at State. While recollecting their
enjoyable antics, however, let's not forget that it
wasn't just to amuse us that they worked so hard,
but to help finance a foreign student. The show was
well-written and well-directed, and the M.C.ing was
done wonderfully. The people on stage were highly
entertaining, but let's not overlook the people behind
the scenes—such as Dr. Rich who pulled the cur-
tain with such precision. Orchids and more orchids
to Frank Hodge who raised three times as much
money as has ever been raised before.
OH, YES...
We forgot to mention that there was a gray co!
duroy jacket “lost” by a member of the faculty cast.
Someone evidently “picked it up” from the stage
Saturday night. After they had dedicated the show
to the students, it's too bad someone in our ranks
jad to take away the rosy glow. This sort of thing
happens quite a bit around here .. . Oh, the moral
integrity of the future Teachers of America!
ONLY A LITTLE BIT DIRTY...
Our Student Union, we mean. Ukay, so we've co-
operated and picked up our little dishes and butted
our little cigarettes in the right places, now what?
But just try rubbing your finger on any window sill
or game room table—that ain't gold dust, Kids.
There are plenty of students in this college who
would gladly take a job in the Student Union, if more
janitorial service is what we need. How quickly a
shiny new building can turn into.a. haunted house
with cobwebs in the corners (Just look for ‘em in
the Snack Bar—they're really there.)
LOTS OF FUN...
Today in assembly Myskania will try to explain the
preferential system. And as long as we're on the
subject, have you taken a good look at the candidates
for the Myskania replacement? Take full account of
what the people have done this year, and not just
past laurels.
ETIQUETTE ...
to the interviewees who might be your future class-
mates is a responsibility of every student. There are
lots of them around now, so instead of just staring
at them as if they were in a zoo, let's remember that
State is a “friendly college."Just a friendly hello may
be enough to convince these kids of that fact,
DON'T FORGET BROTHERHOOD WEEK .. .
Let's not limit this to race and religion; we need
a lot of it among our little cliques and fraternity and
sorority groups. Isn't it about time we stopped refer-
ring to the “athletic group" and the “arty crew,”
etc.? And isn't it about time such phrases as “Oh,
him? He belongs to... ” were canned?When it gets
to the point where individuals from one group ft
uncomfortable because another group is present it's
just a little bit childish.
YOU'LL ENJOY YOURSELF . ..
At the performance of the University Players this
afternoon and tonight. They were good last year and
the repeat performance ought to be even better .
At the game with Oneonta tonight, through the
efforts of Ruth Dunn and Margie Ruck, a bus will be
chartered to at last secure a following for our team.
A lot of effort has been put into this, so let's sup-
port the Peds.
A POINT TO REMEMBER .. .
There is now a committee started by the freshman
class and approved by Student Council to increase
interest in State's sports. Bob Coan has done a lot of
work on this and has been officially delegated by
Student Council to make plans for such events as
pep rallys and bonfires. We've been pretty low on
spirit lately and something like this may be just
what we need. It's good to see stich an enthusiastic
freshman class.

The U
Euid
By PHYL PENNY
Throughout the state, the teach-
ers’ battle-cry of “underpaid-over-
worked” has been re-echoed, restat-
ed and repeated. One of the aims of
education is to encourage and inter-
est more of the better high school
students in becoming school teach-
ers. However, this aim has been
thwarted by the fifth year. Just re-
cently, this law was “dug out” and
pressed into effect, requiring all
school teachers to have a Master's
Degree or the equivalent of thirty
hours of graduate work. Is this nec-
essary?
‘The primary purpose of this law is
to give future teachers additional
instruction in the theories of edu-
cation, The fifth year is intended
to allow the student to learn more
about educational practices before
he starts to teach. Wouldn't it be
better to give the graduate a year's
practice teaching in a classroom,
which doesn't have the artificial at-
mosphere of Milne. Theory serves a
purpose but practice allows one to
see personal limitations and fail-
ings. After a year of actual teach-
ing, the teacher would be able to
take additional courses during the
summer which would better
improve him as a teacher, These
courses would be more wisely select-
ed and perhaps the caliber of teach-
ers would be improved in this man-
ner.
have complained loud
and bitterly that theirs is the ne-
glected profession but some un-
daunted high school graduates ig-
nore these complaints and eye,
hopefully, a pedagogical care. The
Teachers
picture looks rosy: state supported
schools, at which one doesn’t have
to pay tuition and a job with a two
month long vacation. Then the
prospective teacher reads further on
in the brochure, There it is—'a
fifth year is required for all teach-
er college graduates before they can
be certified to teach, The high
school graduate then asks himself
(justifiably so, too) if it is worth
his while to go to college for five
years in order to join the ranks of
the “underpaid and overworked.”
It's easier and less expensive for
the graduate to go into the field of
engineering, business administra-
tion or what have you when after
four years he will be able to secure
a decently puid job.
Also, the college graduate who is
intent upon teaching and does not
want to take his fifth year will go
out of the state for placement. State
funds used on students who eventu-
ally teach in other states is a loss,
at least, in money, not to speak of
the loss of capable persons to teach
the state's children.
It should also be mentioned that
this loss of good teachers does not
occur only from college to other
states but some potential teachers
do not even reach the stage of con-
idering teaching. They are swayed
right out of high school into other
professions. This would seem to
leave in the field only those few
“dedicated” teachers, and the some
who are incapable of obtaining bet-
ter jobs. Certainly this is not the
ideal situation and could stand fur-
ther reviewing by those in a posi-
tion to make suitable changes

Elaine Stryker, as Kyle's wile,

suited for this part. She scemed too

ceeded in putting her thoushts and

Responsibility . . .
As the News has previously stated, the college
has started a campaign for the student donation
of blood, which is so direly needed in Korea. The
idea was developed when the western universiti,
challenged the colleges of the country to see which
campus could achieve the highest percentage of
donors.
Other colleges have had the privilege of having
a bloodmobile unit on their campus. They also
have received complete co-operation from the Red
Cross units. It seems that the campaign at this
college is squelched since the local Red Cross unit
can only use Bender Laboratory every Tuesday
morning and therefore could not accommodate our
needs
Since the local chapter does not have a blood-
mobile unit, we requested one field day per week
in which approximately one hundred students
could donate blood.
The administration is completely in favor of
this campaign. It has offered the school station
wagon service to drive students to and from the
Bender Laboratory every Tuesday. We have guar-
anteed the local Red Cross unit that we will ful-
fill their quota for each Tu y that we reque
the reservation for the college. It seems that its
policy is to take ten individuals from the diffe
ent organizations in this society to insure them-
selves of fulfilling its quota rather than taking
one hundred individuals from one organization or
institution, We respect their attempt to insure
themselves of getting the blood. However. when we
have guaranteed the Red Cross that we will meet
our quota every Tuesday and that we will donate
freely, is there any reason why the unit shouldn't
cooperate? R.P.AL is. receiving complete cooper;
tion from the Rensselaer county chapter. They are
having a bloodmobile unit on campus.
Wednesday, there will be a meeting at noon
with the representatives from the Red Cross unit
who will discuss their policy with us. Its our
duty as college citizens to go to this meeting and
the college. We are responsible college
let’s prove it to the local Red Cross chap
support
citizens
ter.
If The Shoe Fits...
With the recent and excellent presentation given
by the Faculty of State College Saturday night, it
seems that the time is ripe to inform the student
body of this institution that they should) analyze
their own shows each year, especially the ones given
at State Fair,
One of the most overdone phases in our presenta
tions are the satires on womanhood, The satires are
sufficiently bad by themselves. but the clever and
not so subtle remarks accompanying the aets are
certainly “out of taste.”
There are some individuals who are spending a
great deal of time and who are also quite interested
in the favorable public relations of this college. We
wonder if some of the citizens of the Albany area
who were present at State Fair Saturday night felt
like “crawling under their seats” as did some of the
members of Student Association, We would question
the impression they received of State College its a
result of the exhibitions. Does State Colle
this type or publicity?
Tt seems with all the talent brought out in the
Big Fours and the Dramiaties and Arts productions
there should be a sufficient number of people at
tending this college who are capable of staging a
decent production, Let's revert to those individuals!

and 12 lost. Right behind them with
23 won and 13 lost are the Rousers
and Finks.
Led by Ralph Adams’ high triple
of 577 and Dan Kelly's 408, the
Rousers had little trouble in coun-
teracting the Commuter's 490, 424,
and 409 triples of Dick Kirch, Bob

Student Views
With a strong feeling for a track
team in the air this reporter was
sent out to get the candid opinions
of a cross section of State College
students.
The first person interviewed was
Pete Telfer '53's President. Pete's
answer was an emphatic “yes,” but
he alsv added that the track would
look a lot better when laid out
around a football field.
Abe Blattman, sport's writer, also
went along wholeheartedly with the
idea. Abe pointed out the inexpen-
siveness of the sport and added that
of the thirty oud men who signed
up, over twenty competed in high
school track.
In regard to the feminine view-
point, Bea Lehan ‘54, brought up
the point that as good a sport as
track is little chance for partic
pation is offered to girls, Bea, In-
stead, thought that football, with
a marching band and cheerleader
would tend to unite the whole school §
and give more people a chance to
take part.
All in all, track looks like a good
bet for State.
Wrestling Club ls Participate

According to Coach Joe Garcia,
the State College Wrestling Club

ling irregardless of ability, knowl-
edge and past experience.

J. V. On Road
In Quest Of
Fifth Victory
When State College's J.V. basket-
ball team takes the floor tonight at
Oneonta, they will be looking for
their fifth victory of the season, At
the present, they sport a 4-4 won-
lost record. But a won-lost record
never tells the whole story about
the team, as is the case of the J.V.
squad. For example, three of the
games lost have been decided by
either one or two points, a 47-45
loss to Beau Knit of Cohoe:
loss to ABC, and a 61-60 loss last
Friday night to a Naval Reserve
quintet. The one game lost by a
‘able margin was the first game
of the season to ABC, who had re-
ally had to come from behind in
the game to register a victory.
Starting Five Strong
The starting five for the J.V. lin-
ing up with Bob DeMichelle, De
Combs, Jim Bennett, Bob Sage, and
Jack Fernandez is an example of
a well-balanced team, Bennett, De
Combs, and DeMichelle are the
three big men under the boards
while Sage and Fernandez combine
in the back court to give the team
its necessary playmakers, The op-
position find they can never relax
on defense when the Garciamen
come up court as each man is cap-
able of scoring from any position on
the court, The scoring for the sea-
son has been quite consistent with
each of the first five averaging 8
points per game or better, Fernan-
dez is presently leading the indivi-
dual scoring parade with 103 points
for Lhe 8 games.
nett Lost to T
It appears certain that Jim Ben-
nett will be lost to the squad for
the rest of the season due to sick-
ness. The loss of Bennett's scoring
punch and rebounding ability will
be felt greatly by the team. Bob
Comley will take over at center for
Bennett. Comley along with Bob
Coun, Curt Valentine, Bob Smith,
and Dave McKay has greatly im-
proved since the start of the sea-
son and each one is capable of do-
ing an efficient job when called
upon.

will be entertained by Oneonta on
the latter's court tonight. In the
previous meeting of the two clubs
this year the Purple and Gold scor-
ed a record high of 98 in vanquish-
ing the Oneonta quintet. This un-
precedented pointage was highlight-
ed by a 25-point spree in the final
four minutes of the contest, and
sparked by Hiram Walker's 25
points. The going should be a lit-
tle tougher on the large Armory
court in Oneonta, and if Potsdam
can be taken as an example, any-
thing can happen,

predictable.
Peds Take Overtime Thriller
Last week the State hoopsters
fought an uphill battle all the way
in the visitor's role at Plattsburg,
eeking out an 81-80 overtime tilt.
The contest was featured by a 75-
foot one-hander by you-guessed-it-
Hiram Walker in the final seconds
of play to send the game into over-
time. ‘The Peds were trailing by
eight points going into the final
stanza, and Walker's shot was the
climax of a stellar performance by
the squad. Individual high scorers
for the night were Garrow of Platts-
burg and Walker of State with 20
markers apiece

Adam, the Ford Foundation ‘has set

Education which is seeking to cure
the worlds’ ills by starting at the
root of the situation.
Educators have arrived at a new
theory which, incidently, has been
quite prevalent on our own Campus
fer a number of years. Students
spena tuo long learning teaching
theories and too short a period
learning what to teach. Under the
new program, which is being under-
taken by 21 colleges, students will
study the liberal arts for the regu-
lar four years. They will then go on
to a fifth year of studying teaching
problems such as what to do when
“Johnny” who is a senior in high
school still has the annoying habit
of hurling eresers when properly
provoked.
The necessity—at. often the fuil-
ure—to interest superior students in
the field of education has been rec-
ognized, and its suggested solution
is to make the field of education
one stimulating to the imagination.
This new educational trend should
produce a generation of citizens
with a broadened outlook on life.

private school. This new venture
was to be the opening of a State
Normal School at Albany for the
purpose of educating students in the
practice and theory of elementary
and secondary education, The ex-
periment began on December 18,
1844 when 29 pupils assembled and
were taught by the principal-teach-
er David Page and assistant, Pro-
fessor Perkins.
The lack of facilities was second-
ary lo the torce of the opposition
which had been raised against the
new school, The eloquent Page spoke
in every place which would afford
him taciuties in support of this
brat project, Buc greater than his
abilities as a teacher and leader in
eaucation was the character of
David Page. His personal magni-
tude helped to raise teaching to a
respcctable profession. It was claim-
ed that Davia Page would have at-
tained the heights of Horace Mann
had he not died at the early age of
38. His death on January 1, 1848,
concwring with the consideration
of making the school a permanent
institution, quelled opposition, anc
hostility to the experiment ceased
as the inemory of the martyr Page
awakened friendship and confid-
ence.
David Page, in death, had won his
greatest bate for the education of
educators. n the day he died, one
of his pupils wrote her parents a
sad page in the history of State," Mr.
Page is no more is it possible
that we shall hear no more that
rich and musical voice as he rises
in his place from morning to morn-
ing to offer up prayer to God
my heart stifles with emotion as I
write.” Years later, remembering
the beloved Father of State, Phelps
wrote, “He is gratefully and affee-
tionately remembered by thousands
