Post -Script
——_—___._ By BOB TUCKER
So To
The Reporter is given the widest latitude as author
column, although his viewpoints do not neoes-
iy conan those of the Srara Cousan News.
In several weeks the latest edition of the Pedagogue
will be out, and the editors tell me it will be an ex-
ceptionally fine issue, in fact the finest we have ever
had, Recently in the special assembly on the budget:
I became acquainted with some very unusual facts
about the financing of the Pedagogue.
‘Three dollars are taken out of the student tax of
every student at State College. In addition, one dollar
4s collected during the year from those students who
actually wish to obtain a copy. Also, various organi-
zations pay for the pages they are given in the Peda-
gogue. These organizations are supported by the
student tax.
I was also told that if every student in the college
paid the additional dollar in order to receive a copy
of the Pedagogue, their finances would go into the red.
At first sight this seems to be a very poor way for
financing any student undertaking. The arguments
in defense of it are: (1) if each student who received
a copy of the Pedagogue were to pay the actual cost
it would amount to somewhere around ten dollars.
(based on an 800 copy issue). (2) since this cost is too
great, and since the Pedagogue 1s good publicity for
everyone in school, the expense should be borne by
the entire student body.
Let us remember, however, that a school is only
as wealthy as the student body. While we wish to
advance in the public mind the prestige of our school,
we must do it within definite financial limitations.
Iam not advocating that we do away with the Ped.
But I do find it hard to believe that a more justifi-
able means of financing the book cannot be found.
If there is no other way, then it {s up to the student
body to decide how important a role this book plays,
and if it is important enough to merit the money
which we are allocating for it, The matter will be
further discussed at the first assembly after Moving-
Up Day. Be there if you want a voice in disposing of
what amounts to 20% of our entire budget.
Veteran's Class Dues
Several of my veteran friends were rather disap-
pointed in my flat statement that they must pay their
own class dues, Having been called everything from
Quisling to Sad Sack, I feel it my duty to explain
some of the reasons in back of the whole matter.
In years past the finances of each class were handled
competently, but rather informally. When the time
came for the responsible authorities to account to the
government for the use of the funds, it couldn't be
done. It had been decided that an acceptable account-
ing system must and would be set up to satisfy the
V.A, Unfortunately, this.decision was made too late in
this semester to make it applicable, Next year, such a
system will exist. It is of little use to try to fix the
blame on anyone's shoulders for the SNAFU which
exists at present. I'm satisfied that it won't happen
again, so let's make the best of it and get the money
on the line,
Elections
I don’t know what good it will do to reassert some
of the principles which are supposed to be basic
parts of our voting procedure, But here are the main
offices, and what I consider the principal qualifi-
cations:
President—the leader and arbitrator of our Assem-
blies demands great patience, and ability to act de-
cisively, Above all, the President must be impartial,
Vice-President—Except that he or she ts a member
of the Junior class, the qualifications should be equally
demanding.
Myskania—the holders of these offices should be able,
but election to them was intended by the Constitu-
tion to be mainly a matter of prestige, I choose on
what they have done for the school.
Student Council—this is your voice in the ‘cabinet’
of our student executive. They act for the student
body in many capacities. Therefore, vote for the per-
son who most nearly would echo your views on such
matters as budget, selection of committees, etc.
Of course, If your frat brother or sorority sister is
running, disregard these qualifications!
Baseball
This Friday at Bleecker Stadium the State College
varsity plays it's first game, against Pharmacy, 1
know that I will be accused of grinding my own axe,
but I'd like to see a big attendance at the season's
opener, The game starts at four o'clock, which is
inconvenient for people who eat at the dorms, but
if you can come, even for a few innings, tt will mean
a lot to everyone Involved. Incidentally, belated con-
gratulations to M.A.A. for obtaining the ser ft

Diderot of 18th Century French
literature created his “Encyclopedie”
of definitions in order to change
the common way of thinking...
but our aim is simply awareness of
the implications behind terminology
. +. those time-savers we so placidly
accept... words that shield a mass
of potent associations. Throughout
the years, the original meanings of
words have passed through the
many steps of change . . . until the
point has been reached where this
meaning only barely resembles its
current application.
Americanism: Opposite of Inter-
nationalism . . . opposite of United
Nationism . . . that rare quality
that has become a defense mech-
anism in recognizing the right of
the Isolationist, It is used in many
forms—all including the nationalis-
tic tendency. It expresses an amaz-
ing need for a buffer against all
other kinds of “isms,” perhaps in
an effort to renew its strength ...
sometimes confused with “Imperial-
ism.”
Bohemian: To accept the conven-
tions of non-conventionality. You
are Bohemian: if you frequent bars
below street level, if you don’t wear
shoes, if you verbalize on free love
and abhor authority, You are Bo-
hemian as long as you follow the
code that is termed “natural” by
the Bohemians. If you break the
rules . . . you lose your claim to
Bohemianism ... you become “Pur-
itan” or “ordinary.”
Sorority: That which makes “in”-
people feel more important than
“out"-people, with the inclusion of
a particular species characterized
by unamalgamated “sisterships.”
Loyalty: The thing that if you
aren't... you get investigated by
By MULLIGAN and SIMON
Spach
the Thomas Committee for not be-
ing. You are “it” if you never de-
viate from the master pattern pro-
moted by the major platformists.
To avoid the danger of accusation,
to achieve the spirit of loyalty:
avoid affiliations with non-accepted
groups. By all means... conform!
Your strength of conviction is mere-
ly secondary . , . “loyalty,” remem-
ber, means “blind faith.”
Big-Wheel: Characterized by the
conviction that he is the mainspring
of collegiate life. One who knows
“Who” to contact and maintain his
status as one of the “who's.”
Intellectual: Opposite of func-
tionalist, opposite of pragmatist .. .
opposite of common man. A mem-
ber of that spiritual fraternity en-
dowed with “higher understanding”
and designated to guide the follow-
ers. “Intellectual” requires esthe-
tic perception, artistic sensitivity,
and valid comprehension. Because
science has developed no scale to
determine these qualities, however,
they are evaluated in terms of col-
lege diplomas, and honorary de-
grees.
Organizational Key: Synonomous
with motivation—a small artifact of
great and durable value... sym-
bol of virtuosity. It is what...
“the more you have of—the better
your chance is of getting more of.”
It is, in the final analysis, the nec-
essary indication of profundity.
Communism: It is what you are
anti, It is red and totalitarian and
always wrong. It has no premise
that is analogous with democracy.
It is what... “If you have a choice
between it and Fascism, you ac-
cept the latter, as the lesser of two
evils.” Above all, it is unserupu-
lous and revolutionary.
Subsersive: ssshhhhhhhhh!
Communications
To the Editor:
Just in passing, and since it’s the
biggest event which takes place at
State College, we'd like to know
just what qualifications are neces-
sary for one to be suggested for
Myskania? Does a 99 average or
Jess—which actually means that the
student, according to the 1947 State
College Catalogue, Section ©, Un-
dergraduate Scholarship Standards,
is lable to be asked to leave col-
lege—insure the best of ability up-
on the highest body of this institu-
tion? Let's face it...
A member of Myskania is re-
quired to spend a maximum of time
and effort performing his duties.
How can a student with the shacow
of expulsion hanging over his head,
give to this body any small fraction
of the talent which is ne ary?
Speaking of averages, we seriously
doubt the validity of some averages
posted. Wherein lies the fault?
‘Iwo Sophomores,
Editor's Note:
In order to clarify any misunder-
standing or controversy which may
arise as a result of the letter to the
editor printed above dealing with
the concern of some students over
the posting of scholastic averages
on the Myskania lists, the facts be-
hind their being posted are printed
below,
First of all, all scholustie aver-
ages appearing on the Myskanta
lists were obtained directly from
the Registrar's office.
Secondly, one fuct should be
brought to light which may not be
completely clear to the members of
the — freshman
classes, ‘Two years
was made in the method of el
Myskanta as a result of dissatisfac-
Won with the system In use
At this time a poll was conducted
by the NEWS Board which showed
that 415 students were not in favor
of the method of choosing My:
kania und 262 believed it sutisfu
tory.
As a result of the controversy, it
was decided that a candidate for
Myskania should be considered not
only on the basls of his leadership
but also his scholarship, This was

‘To the Editor:
In last week's edition of the
NEWS, Mr. Tucker, in his Post-
Script, quite violently denounced
the State College clection system.
He attacked practically everything,
including the campaign speech of
the Grand Marshal. Does Mr, 'Tuck-
er realize that almost every student
of Stile College has some contact
with Campus Commission? ‘The
Commons, our only room of recre-
ation, is cared for by Campus Com-
mission; the mimeographing mach-
ine is cared for by Campus Com-
mission; the Lounge, the halls, and
the keeping of assembly order are all
functions of Campus Commission.
I've left out many other important
duties such as the "vie," Lost and
Found, and Moving-Up Day. ‘The
members of Student Association
have more contuet with the Grand
Marshal and Campus Commission
than the President of Student As-
sociation, Mr. ‘Tucker, why don’t
you recommend the removal of the
campaign speech of the President
of Student Assoclation?
I hope this has also enlightened
sume of those people who advocate
that Campus Commission should
select the Grand Marshal instead of
the Student: Association. If their
reasoning is sound, on the same
basis, Student Council should elect
the President of Student Associa-
tion.
Pearl Pless ‘49,
Your Decision. . .
Of great concern to a large percentage of our
student body at the present time is the problem
of what is to be done about the Pedagogue.
With the presentation of the yearbook’s budget
in the special assembly early this week came di
cussions concerning the cost per student, the dis-
tribution, and the value of the publication. Some
students feel that it should be only a Senior class
book; others think that the entire cost of the book
per student should be included in everyone's stu-
dent tax; still others want the receipt of a year-
book left entirely up to the discretion of the
individual.
This is a matter for careful consideration, So
many arguments both pro and con may be given
that if these arguments are only accepted on face
value, we will find ourselves revolving in a vicious
circle.
At Student Council meeting Wednesday night,
an Inquiry Board was appointed to investigate
this situation. We, who finance the yearbook
through our student tax, must know the facts and
more facts than have been presented. Not only
will the Ped be represented on the Board but also
students who have shown genuine interest in set-
tling the issue. Concrete suggestions and plans will
be presented by this Board in the May 14 assembly.
However, before this Board may present any
plans, the resolution asking for an $1.25 student-
tax raise to cover the entire cost of a yearbook
for each student must be passed or defeated.
Before taking sides on the Ped question, we must
not fail to realize that though the sheet of paper
on the Husted bulletin board reads—surplus . . .
$6,038.99, below this item in red pencil stands
the “Payable from Veteran’s Administration” . . .
$5,366.15. This deficit under which we are work-
ing leaves an actual amount of $672.84.
To continue dreaming about this surplus is ridic-
ulous. It may be next month or it may be a year
before this money is in the hands of the Board
of Finance.
Let us consider the following:
1, The ’48-’49 budget has been drawn up upon
the expected registration of 1,500 students. We
have no assurance of this enrollment and are $63
short on next year’s budget before September even
comes,
2, Appropriations were made last fall on a budget
total which included the money due from the Vet
eran’s Administration,
3. If the money is not received from the Veteran's
Administration, the amount of money in the sur
plus may have to go to meet the budget for the
current year,
4, The surplus has been built up in the past from
the infirmary fund to which each student paid $3.00
‘The adoption of the insurance plan has eliminated
this source of income.
Under normal conditions, the solution might he
quite different but considering existing conditions,
we should view this question on a long-range basis
The answer might lie in increasing the student tax
to $16, thereby building up the surplus, leaving
the Ped as it stands at present for one year, and
making definite provision that the following. year
we do one of two things
Provide t the student tax include complete
cost of Ped whereby everyone in SA automatically
receives a copy
2, Make the Pedagogue a Senior

Strange Music In Your Ears?
AD Prepares For Production
Do you hear strange noises as
you pass by Page Hall these
days? No need for alarm .. . it’s
just that State's Thespians have
started their rehearsals for
“You Can't Take It With You.”
Why make so much noise about
it, you ask? Well, it seems that
the actors have a problem. Their
sound effects aren't ready yet,
so for timing purposes, they have
to provide their own.
It isn't so bad when the cast
has to improvise by banging
the furniture and making like
the wind, but they seem to be
having difficulty in getting the
female members to scream at
invisible snakes. Does anyone
have any cobras to donate to
make this scene more realistic?
You can't blame all the noise
on the sound effectors, though.
Dell's ballet lessons and Stew
Campbell running across the
stage constantly help make up
part of the bedlam, Does it
sound exciting enough to at-
tend We hope so, because the
rest of State will be there.

Allocation of salaries for the new
teachers has been made by the State
Division of Budget from funds ap-
propriated by the 1948 Legislature,
State's new budget for the coming
academic year was planned to per-
mit enlargement of the teaching
staff by nine members, to take care
of an expected record enrollment of
1500 in September, according to Dr.
Nelson, Increases in enrollment at
State are largely attributed to the
shortage of teachers and enlarged
opportunities in the teaching field,
he stated.

May Announces
Three Additions
To NEWS Staff
Two positions have been added to
the State College NEWS Board,
and one position to the NEWS Staff,
according to Ann May '48, Editor-
in-Chief. In addition, the present
system of having separate editors
for the departments of business,
circulation, and advertising, has
been altered,
Appoint Two New Editors
The positions to be added to the
NEWS Board include those of Pub-
lic Relations Editor and Exchange
Editor. The Public Relations Edi-
tor will be a Senior. He will work
in cooperation with the office of the
Coordinator of Field Services and
Public Relations, directed by Mr.
Paul Bulger, The position has been
ereated because in working with his
office this year, the NEWS has
found that the amount of work re-
quired and the amount of material
available need the steady work of
one person. It is believed that with
a single person in charge, more
work could be done, with a maxi-
mum of efficiency, The Exchange
Editor will be a Junior, He will be
in charge of all exchange of news-
papers and correspondence between
State and other colleges. It will be
his duty to sean all incoming col-
loge papers for possible news items.
Add Photography Editor
An addition to the NEWS Staff
will be the post of Photography Edi-
tor. The NEWS has felt the need
lo have some one in charge of all
photography. The — Photography
Editor will appoint his own working
stall,
The present system of having a
separate editor for the departments
of business, circulation, and adver-
Using has been changed. In the
future, the business manager will
be in charge of the entire business
staff, and the managers of adver-
tising and circulation will work un-
der the business manager,

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 1948
“A New Look”
By
MICKEY SEAMAN
We hear so much about the “new
look” in fashion these days, that it
4s time we took a “new look” at the
world of sports. This new look will
take us beyond the athletic pro-
gram of State College and will
branch out into the fertile field of
other college activities and national
sports on the outside.
ICA, at its recent conference, has
taken a good look into the possi-
bilities of starting an inter-collegi-
ate program. It is definitely a step
in the right direction.
'Tis rumored that State may act
as host to a woman's basketball
play-day next winter. This could
give WAA a tremendous boost in
prestige and interest. Let's not let
the idea die on third!
The Problem
The proposed Varsity League be-
tween the Teacher Colleges presents
multi problems, but none of these
are too big to overcome IF we are
determined to do so. The money
question rears its ugly head as the
distance between the colleges is
much greater than that usually
travelled by the Varsity. Coach
Hathaway suggests an East-West
division with play-offs between the
winners. Well... why not?
It is a known fact that all Teach-
er Colleges are not of equal ath-
letic strength. We suggest that if
a functioning league of this type
gets under way, the Teachers Col-
leges will attract students who wish
to participate in sports. And if
basketball seems like too big an
undertaking, let’s start a League in
minor sports where the ability dif-
ferences are not so great. The point
is, LET'S GET STARTED SOME-
WHERE.
We hear a great deal about Pub-
lic Relations lately. Can you
think of a better way to get the
public interested in State College
than to become members of a
Teacher College League? The hit
and miss scheduling which it has
been impossible to avoid under the
present system does not spread our
fame. The ICA League could.
Speaking of scheduling, this plan
would certainly save Coach and his
assistants a powerful number of
headaches.
The Other Half
Turning to the national scene,
the major leagues got under w
this week. Of course it is too ea
to make any predictions, but we'll
put our money on “Dem Bums.”
The Albany Senators, whom re-
porters seem to think will put up a
good team this year, will open their
season Tuesd: against Hartford
at Hartfeid. The Club will go into
the Eastern League pennane race
with the oldest club in the Richard-
son loop. The combined player av-
erage is 26 years.
Milne High will play eight home
games this season. This should
give us a chance to see some of our
perspective students in action.
The Big News
Since the biggest news of the day
is the debut of our own 1948 Base-
ball Varsity, we can't help but urge
all you who would like to see the
team in action to join us at Bleecker
Stadium at four o'clock, Toda.
the day. Admission by student tax
The long awaited results of the
WAA Ping Pong Tournament give
the championship to Addie Fischer
‘48. She downed Elsa Mobe:
in the finals to cop this year's
woman's title.
As a closing thought, though it
is with us all of the time, we take
this opportunity to compliment
Paula, our venerable editor, on the
swell Job she has done on Sports
Page this year. It's been real, Tichy.

Scheduled NextWeek
Today the '48 edition of the State
baseball team takes the field for
their opening game against Phar-
macy. The opener will be played
at Bleeker Stadium at four o'clock.
Although State played Inter-Col-
legiate baseball on an informal bas-
is last year, this season will be its
first big season since the late thir-
ties. State has a ten game slate
lined up for the season, facing six
different opponents,
State played Pharmacy twice last
year. After losing the first game
to the “druggists,” the team bounc-
ed back and took the second game
for a split for the season.
During next weck, State will play
two games. Monday will see the
Varsity renewing relations with ABC
at Ridgefield. On Thur:
takes up last year's rivalry
Siena. The team will be out to
avenge two defeats at the hands
of the “Indian: year. This
game will be pla Siena.
In the pitching department,

ed six-man squad. Four are right-
handers; Hank Farley, Harvey

Paula Tichy Plays Heroine
At Camp Johnston Weekend
Thirteen outdoor minded gals
Started out for WAA's Camp
Johnson Friday. They sure did
not know what fate awalted!
“Scoop” Gilbert got the week-
end off to a rather warm start.
She put three logs in the pot-
belly stove in the bunk room so
that they would burn one at a
time all night to keep a con-
stant comfortable temperature.
But that courageous ‘48er,
Paula Tichy, came to the rescue.
When the others left to cool
off, Paula remained and _vali-
antly regulated the draf’
Someone suggested she throw
cold water on the stove to cool
it off but she knew better.
Saturday morning those full
of vim and vigor took a hike,
Foor Audrey Weller ‘51 lost her
shoe in the mud. Our heroine
Paula saved the day. After div-
ing into the mud, head first,
xtricated the shoe.

No, you're not seeing double—
it was just a repeat performance
of the Frosh Big-4 at the Albany

tation of the “Smiles” committee,
those who hadn't seen the show
before and those who wanted to
see it again joined the youngsters
last Tuesday evening.
Georgina Maginess took over
the direction in Don Ely’s ab-
sence. Greta Gladstone, C, J.
Peretta and the rest of the cast
adlibbed their ways into the kids
hearts. The performance lacked
nothing that was enjoyed here
last Saturday night. With at
least 98% of the cast there, it
was not necessary to cut any
scenes and the production was
just as spirited in its encore as
it had been as a -nighter.”

opinions through a poll taken by the State College NEWS, in refer-

by at landslide majority.
