Wilfred Allard Spends Summer
In Europe During Recent Crisis

by Sally Young ¢

«(This is the first part of a story
* of the summer European travels of
Wilfred Allard, who was in Italy
when the recent crisis arose and
broke.)
“New York looked mighty good to

That was the reaction of Wilfred
Allard, new supervisor of French in
Milne high school, upon his arrival
in New York after two and one half
months of travel in England, France,
and Italy.

Allard started out, three months
ago, via the Normandie, for a trip
to Europe. He spent two weeks in
London, saw the tennis finals at
Wimbledon, then went to France;
the trip across the English channel
to Paris was made in seventy-five
minutes by air,

When he arrived in Paris on the
night before July 14, he found it
brilliantly lighted for the occasion.

The next day he saw a magnifi-
cient revue, which represented the
entire French empire, Troops from
Algeria, Indo-China, Morocco, the
French Foreign Legion, and a grou
from England, and a Scottish reg!-
Cyr were present. The King’s Guards
from England, and a Scottich regi-
ment also participated. Hundreds
of bombers and pursuit planes flew
overhead, displaying the air might
of Great Britain and France.

A performance of Faust at the
Opera, the Comedie Francaise with
its “Cyrano de Bergerac”, visits to
the Louvre and other places or in-
terest to the Parisian traveler, fill-
ed three weeks in Paris. From Paris,
Allard made a three week's tour to
the south of France, including Avig-
non-—the home of the Popes, Nimes,
Carcassonne, Marseilles, the French
Riviera, Monte Carlo, Cannes, and

Nice, in his itinerary, |

Fairer Sex Of State

To Become Beautiful

Do you think you're an incom-
parable combination of Hedy
LaMarr, Miss America and the
best dressed woman in the world?
Is your appearance perfect? If
you are one of those who answer
“yes”, then you need read no
further. But for all the rest of
the population, the following in-
formation should prove a bless-
ing.

The Dean of Student's office is
sponsoring a “grooming clinic”
for girls every Thursday in the
Lounge from 4 to 5:30 o'clock.
Here, through individual confer-
ences, you may obtain advice and
assistance in your own particular
grooming problems.

The clinic is under the direc-
tion of Mrs. Edward Cooper, wife
of our own Mr, Cooper, and Mrs.
Quinn. Come on down and let
them make a new woman of you.

Debate Council
Makes New Plans

Student Associ m to Hear
First Rivalry Debate
During Assembly

Janice Friedman, ‘40, president
of Debate council, has announced
the selection of nineteen new mem-
bers to be added to the regular
squad which now brings the total
up to thirty-two. William G. Hardy,
debate coach, was the judge for the
tryouts.

On October 7, Mr. Hardy attended
the conference for Debate Coaches
of New York state at Colgate uni-
versity. At the conference possible
topics for collegiate debates were
discussed and selected. Among
those decided upon are the “Isola-
tion of the United States,” “Pan-
American relations,” “Ownership
of public utilities" and “War
referendum.”

Assembly Debate

A tentative schedule has been
drawn up which arranges for the
first inter-class debate to be fought
out before the student assembly
between the sophomores and the
seniors this morning. The proposi
ton reads: “Resolved that the Neu-
trality Act should be amended to
provide for the sale of war mater-
ials a cash-and-carry basis.”

“Cash-and-carry” 1s defined as
strictly cash, no ninety-day credit. |
“War materials” are defined as any-
thing the belligerents classify as|
contraband. Upholding the affirm-|
ative for the sophomores are Rita
Kell, Peter Fulvio and Dorothea |
Mclsaac. On the negative side for|
the seniors are Harriet Sprague,
Stewart Smith and Mary Arndt.
Plans have been made to send
delegates to the annual spring State
Debate conference which will be
held at Colgate university lasting
two full days,
Meets Arranged

The teams will also be sent to
Rochester where they will meet with
the University of Rochester, Ni-
agara university and Nazareth col-
lege. sometime in March. Louise
Snell, ‘41, secretary of Debate coun-
cil, is endeavoring to get college
competition from out of state, name-
ly southern Massachusetts. and
Connecticut. The schedule also in-
cludes the usual encounters with
Skidmore, Bard, Hamilton, St. Law- |
rence and the University of Buf-
falo.

For Sentiment on Vote System |

~ — eo =it|

“What is your opinion of the Ag- |
ne i ndment to the voting s
tem?", an inquiring reporter asked
Bob Agne, himself, in a search for
a cross-section of student opinion
on this issue

‘I have no opinion for publica-
tion,” replied Agne, “but I don't
think it’s good publicity calling it

doesn’t atigment its chances of pass-

Your reporter then hailed a prom-
inent senior who said, “The new
system concerning revoles is very
worthwhile, but the publication of
results Will be of no benefit to any
one and will only hurt these people
who dont come up for revote

To our question, “You oppose
publication of the numerical re-
wits, then?

Yes," he replied, “but this is
trictly off the record.”

With a promise that we would
keep the public in the dark as to
his identity, we sailed away

“hoy-hoying” you frosh to come

how to swing your limbs to the
new jittery tempos.

You too can learn to “rip up

those few who like to hold your
balance (and might I suggest
your dinners, too) on the dance
floor, you can learn how to do
the more conservative fox trot

A poll to determine student opin-

be conducted Monday and Tuesday.

After a heated discussion of an
amendment to that effect intro-
duced at the previous meeting by
John Murray, ‘41, the Forum decid-
ed to defer action until the next
regular meeting. In the meantime,
it is desirous to obtain the gen-
eral student opinion on the subject.

Student Council
Revises Rivalry

Rules for Banner, Mascot,
and Athletic Contests
Undergo Changes

The rules governing inter-class
rivalry were recently revised and
clarified by Student council as was
predicted in the 1943 handbook.
The major changes were made in
section B—banner rivalry, section
C—challenging, and section F—
athletic events.

Under the new ruling in banner
rivalry, the contest shall close at
midnight preceding Moving-up day
and not before. Both banners must
be given to the president of Student
council between midnight and 8:00
o'clock on Moving-up day. The old
rules demanded that the banners
be given to the president at mid-
night when the contest closed.

New Rules for Sing

In the section on challenging, a
new sub-heading was added to part
three which states that, “in the
event of a sing, the contest shall
be judged on the singing of the
class song to the Alma Mater, which
song shall be original in words and
music.” This is an entirely new rul-
ing designed to facilitate the judg-
ing of the contest and to enable
the classes to concentrate on one
song for the contest.

The rules governing athletic
events have been changed so that
section 1 — interclass basketball,
part (c), now reads, “three points
shall be awarded to the class whose
men's team is successful in games
played between the two rival clas-
ses." The specification about fol-
lowing the inter-class basketball
schedule and the procedure in the
event of a tie was deleted because
there is no schedule and there can
be no tie in basketball,

Mascot Hunt

A minor change under A—fresh-
man welcome, has been enacted,
substituting the sophomore recep-
tion for the freshmen for section 1,
part (a). Thus the freshmen will
be instructed in the traditions and
and inter-class rivalry rules at the
sophomore reception instead of the
first Friday of school. Under D—

The present system, everyone will agree, i
wholly inadequate. The confusion outside the Co-

sheets, the subsequent contact of individuals
through the student mail, do not make facile and
speedy transaction of books, Furthermore, through
the inefficiency of this system, textbooks which
are in demand are left to gather dust on the shelves,
because the owner failed to contact a purchaser. |
The proposed exchange should serve to eliminate
this waste,

We congratulate those few persons who are
responsible for this move which will be of im-
measurable service to the student body.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, OCTOBER 13, 1939

Wilfred Allard, While in Europe,

Witnesses Wartime Preparations

by Sally Young

(This is the second part of a story
of the summer European travels of
Wilfred Allard, who was in Italy
when the recent crisis arose and
broke.)

At Cannes, he saw, the famous
Battle of Flowers; in Nice, he at-
tended an outdoor performance of
“Prometheus Chained” in the Ro-
man Arena and witnessed the Fete
des Provinces Francaises.

His first journey to Italy was
@ pleasant one. Genoa, Pisa of the
famed Leaning Tower, Naples, Cap-
ri, Pompeii and Rome were high-
spots of his Italian visit. During
his three day’s stay in Rome, he
viewed an outdoor performance of
“Aida”, in the ruins of the Caracal-
la Baths, which was attended by
20,000 people, The Conte de Savoia,
Italian liner, was leaving Naples
during his visit; three days later,
as he returned to France, he again
saw the ship, which had been call-
ed back to Italian waters by Mus-
solini.

When the crisis came, Allard was
in Florence, Italy, where very little
about the crisis was known. The
American consul told all Americans
to leave as quickly as possible, since
no one knew when Italy might join
the Germans in the hostilities.
From Florence he proceeded to
Nice, to Grenoble and back to
Paris, where he was located when
the war was declared,

The wartime Paris was very calm
and quiet, Public notices to the
civilian population gave informa-
tion about procedure in case of
an air raid; all news was censored.
All skylights and headlights were
painted blue; all lights were a dim
blue; traffic signals were removed;

State Clubs Prepare
1939 Fall Program

Numerous clubs of the college are
now planning their social activities
for the coming year. Meetings and
revision committees have scheduled
such innovations as a complete
study of Italian folklore by the
Ttalian club and a trip to New York
city by the Classical club. Hikes
are featured by the other clubs, as
are discussions and constitutional
revisions.

The Italian club will conduct a
meeting on Tuesday evening at 8:00
o'clock in the Lounge of Richardson
hall, John Caramia, '40, president,
announces that the program will
feature Dr. Harold W. Thompson,
professor of English, as guest
speaker on the subject of Italian
folklore. Dr. Thomas G. Bergin,
professor of romance languages,
will also attend the meeting.

The Classical club has a prospec-
tive year in view as they initiate
this year with the hopes of making
@ trip to New York city in the near
future to see the classical exhibit
in the American Museum of Art,

anyone who assumes an intelligent
and cooperative attitude, but an ex-
perienced senior penetrated the haze
of theories of the value of the sys-
tem and explored its practical work-
ing. He believed that it would re-
sult in dirtier politics than now
exist, An example well illustrated
his point. Rho Dammit Rho and
Kappa Kegga Beer, two sororities,
who find it to their advantage to
work together, discover, on publica-
tion of results for revotes, that each
has a candidate who carries an ex-
cellent chance of winning, if she
can receive backing from another
organization, Therefore, each will
switch their votes to the others’

“candidates, thus securng for each

a winner, Under the present
method, he pointed out, this would
not be possible.

ments as any civic group does to its

pose the whole or part, but most
don't care.

State College Maidens

Capture Bold Intruder

“Come on, girls, are we men or

With that cry four girls
dove at an object in thelr
locker room, and one ran away
screaming, When the dust of the
battle cleared, Ethel Halterman,
42, exhibited the prize—a wee-
wee mouse,

His orientation into State col-
lege came quickly, He was imme-
lately presented to Dean Nelson,
who, caught momentarily off
guard, greeted Mr, Mouse as a
prospective freshman, He made
& favorable impression, however,
for the Dean christened him
“Felx" and formally admitted
iim to State, After taking his en-
trance exams, he was allowed to
run about the library tables
where much excitement was stir-
red up.

Next came a trip to the Dean
of Students’ office where Mrs.
Casey hit high "O”" and took to
the customary refuge. Mr, Hardy
received him in his usual cordial
manner and subtly suggested that
he be kept in a cage in the activi-
ties office, At present Mr, Mouse
may be found “at home” in the

Dr. Gogarty, Offstage, Explains
Treland’s Attitude Toward War

by Willlam Dorrance

Speaking in a rapid Irish brogue,
Dr, Oliver St, John Gogarty drop-
ped some of the gems for which he
is famous to a Nuws reporter in
a hurried back-stage interview,
Before stepping to the stage of
Page hall, he commented upon the
war, Irish Uterature, and the United
States,

To u question on Ireland's posi-
tion in the present world catas-
trophe, Gogarty stated, “Ireland
has now 42,000 soldiers In the Brit-
ish army, waiting to embark to the
front In France, Of course this
enlistment is unofficial,”

To the reporter's interruption,
hinting that Ireland is pro-British,
Gogarty replied, "No, I wouldn't
suy that at all. Troland is not
definitely pro-British, The Irish
are never definite about anything,
Right now the young-bloods say
they want to see the fun over in
France, It's the traditional Irish
love for a fight that is behind their
joining the British army,”

He recalled an old thirteenth cen-
tury Irish tune which sums up the
Trish personality and attitude
toward life,

‘Good at. man’s slaying,

Merry in the ale house,

Masters of the song,’

That Is the feeling of the Irish,”

At this point the doctor asked
the reporter not to place too much
emphasis on the war. ‘“Poiitics
and war," he explained, “are the
complete antithesis of wit and cul-
ture, I profer talking about lighter,
rivher things,”

In response to a question on the
greatest figure in the Irish ltor-
ary renalssance, Gogarty retorted,
“The greatest man in Irish liter-
ature? Not just Irish literature
but world literature, Why, William
Butler Yeats is the man, He's been
the leading figure in the last ten
years. His winning the Nobel prize
emphasizes this."

Gogarty called New York the
grandest olty in the world, "I
prefer New York to any city in the
world including Dublin. Why? The
town is @ poem, It is @ veritable
fairyland.” He maintained that the
noise did not disturb him a bit,
“Why, It soothes the temper, doesn't
arouse it.”

At this moment he was called
upon the stage to present his ady
dress, He left with the words, "

T see you some day in Dublin,”
