mind on the relative importance of
these buildings; however, it of course

State chooses to to finance, regard-

To Student Association Members
"51-"52:

The 1952 Pedagogue Board is
happy to announce that the often
mentioned but never seen Pedagogue
Supplement promised last year will
be distributed during the coming
week, March 16-20. In answer to the
many “Questions of the Week” and
private inquiries of several individ-
uals, the supplement will be avail-
able to student tax holders of last
year, or in other words, all of those
people who received Pedagogues last
year.

‘There will be two desks set up in
lower Husted, and people whose last
names begin with the letter A-L
will receive Supplements at one
desk, while the L-2's will find Sup-

plements at the other. Positive
Identification will be required, and
for identification you may use your
current stduent tax card, driver's
license, or some similiar semi-legal
document.

You may get a Supplement for a
friend now at the college or for
someone who has left Albany since
June by signing for his copy on the
paper provided at the desk.

Although they may at this time
seem more {lke a dividend than a
Supplement, these Supplements can
be attached to the back cover of
your yearbook by removing the thin
strip of masking tape from the back
edge and pressing the Supplement
firmly in place.

The Supplements will be offered
during March 16-20 only, and dis-
tribution will be during the hours
of 11 a. m, and 1 p. m.

Faculty members who purchased
copies of the 1952 Pedagogue will
receive a copy of the Supplement
via the college mail.

Student Council has released the
final financial results of this year’s
State Fair, The net profit is stated
at $455.17. Expenses amounted to
$44.45 and the gross income was
$499.62. The initial expense money
was provided by Student Council.

Last year's net income was
$555.00. This sum was accounted for
by the fact that the faculty made
$242.50 with their opening show
The major profits were made this
year by the faculty with $144.11
SCAGS with $34.24, Beta Zeta with
$77.00, and Sayles Hall with $33.34

Possible contributions to make up
the shortage in the Foreign Studert
Fund could be arranged by individ-
ual classes, the Council suggests.

Kapner Reports
On Insurance

Last week in assembly, Student
Association considered briefly the
two proposals for compulsory insur-
ance presented to it. In the course
of the discussion several questions
were raised concerning what became
of those who already had insurance
coverage under an individual policy
Members of SA also brought up the
possibility of having a policy solely
for accident insurance, or of requir
ing students to pay a health fee into
a student run fund for the College.

As a result of SA's questions Art
Kapner, local insurance agent, has
ted further the practicality
nt suggestions, In regard to
ablishment of a policy strictly for
accident insurance, last year's clain
records for students of th
were investigated, and it was dis-
covered that, of 720 claims filed, 90
were for accidents, while 630 were

would be, in effect, creating an in-

be necessary.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, ‘FRIDAY, MARCH 20, 1953

Phenomena . . .

This past weekend, delegates of the State College
News attended the annual Columbia Scholastic
Press Association conference in New York which
SA sends us to yearly in order that ideas for better:
ing the News may be gained. Members of the dele-
gation returned’ feeling rather proud of the News
for having earned a Medalist award, highest honor
which the Association gives. However, upon reflect-
ing upon the conference as a whole, we realized
that we had gained many ideas which, journalistic-
ally speaking, had little relation to a press gathering;
that we came away feeling proud of far more than
State’s newspaper. For, during the three day con-
vention, we had it impressed upon us constantly
that we are exceedingly fortunate students of an
exceedingly fortunate college. We returned from the
gathering proud of Albany State. Why? Let us at-
tempt to tell you.

We happened to mention that we were in the
process of revising our SA Constitution, “What
constitution?” said one delegate. “We don’t have
one.” “Ours was just handed to us,” said another.
We mentioned going to the printer’s. Oh, the print-
er is in Albany? No, we take a train. Who pays
for it? Student Association Budget. “Budget? We
get our money handed to us. The students have
nothing to say about it.

As usual, several of the meetings degenerated in-
to a discussion of whether or not faculty advisors
and censorship were necessary. Being the only ja-
per in attendance with no faculty advisor and only
our own sense of responsibility censor, Vews
delegates have always had an enjoyable, perhaps
even gleeful, time demonstrating that neither is
necessary, We discovered that our fellow journal-
ists worked under situations ranging from the school
where the President of the College proof-read the
copy to the passive advisor consulted only for ad-

vice,

In 1940 we find the .Vews commenting to this ef-

fect: ‘In our four years at State College we have

witnessed a collegiate phenomena—an administra-

tion that believes in a strict (aissez-faire policy to-

ward all extra-class activities. The student body

ted this policy; we have learned by our

mistakes: it has fitted us as teachers for the sec-

ondary schools of this state--we have been con-

sidered adults.” Perhaps many of us do not reali,
to how few schools this phenomena has come. And
it is a phenomena, As one conference speaker put
it, college administrations just “put up with" school
publications, that they could abolish them at any
time, just as easily as football or basketball; that
students ought to be thankful for the opportunity
of governing their own affairs, rather than “scream-
ing censor” whenever suggestions from above were
offered

Our conclusion? We are privileged to have the
most comprehensive program of student government
and student run extra-curricular affairs of any we
encountered in our type of institution, Many such
institutions would not even give an assembly of
students the opportunity of “wasting their time,”

the best of all possible worlds.” Certainly, there
is always room for improvement and we, as always, {
will actively support any programs genuinely de
signed to benefit this college or its students

We trust you will excuse our rather swelled
heads; however, we have just returned from stack-

some have put it, discussing insurance as you by considering two individuals. Re-
will be today, We do not mean to imply that “this cently w student attempted to mat

cons of the whole business and will vote intelligently.
This vote should be for compulsory insurance. There
is no excuse left, except that of poverty, and we think
that all can afford to have such a policy. In the long
run, the benefits far outweigh the cost. °

EDUCATION?

The letter to the editor last week certainly showed
quite a bit of ignorance and bias. Undoubtecily, many
other people around here are going under the false
notion—that the State of New York is prejudice
against athletics. This is absurd! Use your head Mr
52'er, the administration takes “donations” from the
State as they come out of the legislature, not as they
need or want them,

LOGIC

The policy of having such things as a rivalry de-
bate in as:embly should be altered in some way. The
way the future looks, there will not be sufficient time
to cover the necessary Student Association business. —
and yet time is wasted with debates and wrestling
matches. The assembly should take care of SA bu
ness first and extra programs secondly. As it looks
now, we are not going to have enough time to fully
discuss budgets, perhaps the most important phase
of our Student Government.

IDLENESS

Why doesn't somebody get on the ball and start
taking the assembly attendance. y Friday, since
the semester began, only half the orchestra seats have
been filled. [If we are going (o have compulsory as-
semblies, why not enforce the law. We've had enough
ef this fooling around and doing jobs half wa how
can we carry on effective assemblies? Enough is
enough—let's have some action!!!

KEEP MAJOR-MINOR

We are a little skeptical of the new plan for lim-
iting the numker of offices that can be held by
one Student Association member. The point system
which is being discussed seems to be inferior to the
major-minor office plan in that it will be too comp!-
cated to be very effective. A revision of the old plan
would be a much better idea

GE Researcher
Will Address

Science Conclave

Dr. Vincent J. Schaefer, General
Electric's ‘snowflake scientist”, will
be the keynote speaker at the first
meeting of the Eastern Colleges
Science Conference at 11 a. m, next
Friday. The topic of his address wil!
be “Scientific Adventure.” Supple-
mentary outdoor films, illustrating
his present interest in rain and snow
making, will be shown.

Dr, Schaefer, a protege of Dr. Ir-
ying Langmuir, who is an associate
director of G-E’s Research Labora-
tory and a Nobel Prize winner; be-
came interested in weather experi-
mentation several years ago. He
made a hobby of observing snow
crystals and soon turned his atten-
tion to the question of what causes
snow to form in the atmosphere. Be-
leving that a sudden jolt of ex-
tremely cold temperature introduced
into a super-cooled cloud might
turn the trick, he experimented with
dry ice and succeeded in producing
actual snow crystals.

Dr, Schaeter is a member of the
American Chemical Society and
holder of an honorary doctor of sci-
ence degree from the University of
Notre Dame. He is currently serving
‘as a consultant to the Office of Na-
val Research and the U. S. Research
and Development Board panel on
aircraft equipment.

A Reason For Existence

The poet's lot's to chronicle the
days,

To bring some order out of all
the maze

To lead men on to glory and by-

ways,

Reveal the light and brush away
the haze,

"Tix the poet's task to show what
lovers seek,

His to describe happiness at its
peak, j

‘Thru him love's joy comes to the
strong and weak,

He pacifies the wild, enjoins the
meek.

The poet's gift comes
from heav'n on high,

His to tell why man must live and

straight

ie,

me in truth and ought not
speak a lie

For a poet's gift rest in knowing
twhy.!

: Mockery

Across the barrier of time,

From out of the full clutch ot
fortune and circumstance,

You come. Like a ship comity,
home to port,

All dangers past, you

Even then I am tormented—

For the nearness of your body
only ridicules the distance ol

JV's Wind Up Varsity Cagers Finish Strong After Mid-Season Slump;
Triumph In Twelve Starts As Walker’s 289 Paces Attack

Top Campaign,
Post 11-4 Record

The Junior Peds closed out their
season by trouncing Albany College
of Pharmacy 79 to 67. This marked
the eleventh victory in fifteen
starts for the Juniors. Sig Smith
took scoring honors for the night
by throwing in 26 points. Griffeth

led the maroon and white with 15 ]

points.

The JV lost only four games dur-
ing the season. ‘The Junior Peds
bowed to ABC twice, Papa's All
Stars, and the Middletown Varsity
The Mdidletown squad eeked out a
53-52 victory. On the other side,
State nipped the Utica Juniors #5-

JV's Rally after Poor Start

After a poor start of three losses
in four games, the Juniors bounced
back to take three in a row. After
a final loss to ABC, the JV racked
up a seven game winning streak
that carried them through the end
of the season.

One factor that contributed to the
Junior Ped's fine season was the
tact that four of the starters had
double digits averages for the sea-
son. Scoring laurels go to Sig Smith
with a 16.67 average. Following
Smith in scoring were Cline with a
13.53 average, Combs’ 12.07 and De-
michiell with 12.07. It is hard to
beat a team when four men can
come up with two column averages
for a season,

McCormick Does Fine Job

While laurels are being passed out.
the JV coach must not be over
looked. John McCormick certainly
did a fine job of molding a winning
club, John, a student himself, won
the respect and friendship of the
entire squad.

‘The squad amassed a grand total
of 1099 points for the season, while
their opponents collected only 966.
On the gloomy side, the Junior:
committed 297 fouls in 15 games.
This is almost 20 fouls per game.

Future Prospects Are Good

If this year’s JV is any indication
of things to come, the basketball

‘osrects for State seem to be get-
ting brighter. Of the 12 members cf
the squad, nine are freshmen. Aft
the few varsity slots are filled ne:
year, there should be a fine nucle
for a fine JV squad. Everyone is
looking forward to another fine JV
season next year. Certainly, this
year's squad was great, but we are
always looking for something better.
Next year's squad will really have to
hustle to beat the fine record set
by this year's Junior Peds

vidual scoring for the 1952-53 Jun-
tor Varsity.

CAPTAIN BOB TABER

Taber Captains
Winning Squad

Big Bob Taber culminated four
years of Varsity competition with a
Stellar performance in the season's

against Geneseo State Teach-

college, March 12 on the Page
hardwoods. Rising to the occasion
of his last appearance for the Pur-
ple and gold, Taber lead the gscor-
ing attack, with 22 markers, his
highest single night total of his
State College basketball career

Taber won a berth on the varsity
squad as a freshman, and under the
tutelage of Bob Brown, former State
star, rounded into a mainstay undei
the boards. He was elected captain

year by the members of the
quad, and successfully led the
Statesmen to a winning season this
year

Aside from his rebounding, Taber
has been one of the most consistent
foul shooters on the squad, and this
year developed a fairly accurate one
hander from the corners. His best
shot through the years has been a
one handed jump shot from the
lane with which he has netted con-
sistent scores

This year Taber yurnered a total
of 211 points, 65 coming op free
throws and the remainder on fieid
goals.

Easy going, Bob's manner both on
and off the court, his countless
jokes and stories, and his superior
achievement in scholustic endeavors
murk him as a credit to this inst:-
tution. His services in forthcoming
years will be missed.

Soph Snatch
Rivalry Hoop

The Green Gremlins of '55
snatched four more rivalry points
from the freshmen in Tuesday and
Wednesday night's rivalry contests,
Each evening, a men’s and women’s
game was played; the victory to be
gi ven to the winner of two out of
three games, Since both the soph
men and women took the first two
game, a third was unnecessary,

Marge Liddell, high-scorer for
the Sophs in Tuesday's battle,
tossed in the first two points early
in the first quarter. From then on,
it was a matter of a well-practiced
combination of Lidell, Laurie and
Miller out-foxing a rather loosely
knit freshman defense. Spurred on
by the half-time score of 17-8, the
freshmen tightened up their defense
and the offense became more ag-
gressive, However, the Sophs came
out on the better and of a 30-16 final
score,

Bob Strauber, balking at the
Sophomore advantage in height,
compensated by taking every oppor-
tunity for a fast break in the men's
game that followed. The lead
bounced back and forth between the
two teams like a ping-pong ball, but
ended on the freshman side of the
net lo the tune of 25-21 at half-
time, A foul shot and basket that
made the difference were scored in
the last few seconds of the final
quarter, declaring the £ophs champs
in a 47-50 thriller,

Wednesday night, the — frosh
women looked better, but couldn't
contend with Barb Devitt's height
and agility close to the basket, The
Sophomore defense in the first and
fourth quarters kept the frosh fron:
attempting anything but set shots
£'s Deloria managed to be quite
Geadly from the right side of the
Lasket, however. The Sophs took the
game 27-17.

When the men re-met Wednesday
night, it promised to be anybody's
gan.e until the Sophs took a fairly
substantial lead in the fourth quar:
er, The game was tied 10-10 at the
cnd of the first quarter 16-16 at
the half, and the Sophs had byt 4
2 point lend in the third quarter,
They managed to outshoot the frosh
in the last quarter, and the final
tally was 32-38,

ations a symbol for music just as
in this country Morgan means
money or Ford, automobiles,

is, July 7, 1927. At the age of five
under loving but strict supervision
of his great-aunt, he started playing

student and the same year won the
First Medal,

dy. In October of that year he was
a prize winner at the International
Contest at Geneva, Switzerland.

In 1948 he began a professional
career which since then has in-
cluded successful engagements in
recital and with orchestra in this
country, and tours of Holland,
Switzerland, and France,

Within four years, Jean Cassa-
desus has forged ahead steadily.
Between January 1950, and April
1952, he appeared with 30 American
orchestras, playing concertos by
Liszt, Saint-Saens, Ravel, Mozart,
and Beethoven, numerous solo re-
citals, and appearing with his pai
ents in special engagements, witn
the New York Philharmonic-Sym-
phony, and orchestras in Pittsburgh,
Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis and
Indianapolis. The three also played
together in Rome and Paris, Every-
where Jean appears, his musician-
ship and personal charm have won
him a devoted following.

Young Jean is, as one newspaper
writer puts it, musical chip off
a worthy block.” His appearance
here at State should be one of the
outstanding programs of the year,

Report Predicts
Teacher Shortage

The shortage of funds in mariy
communities will prevent the build-
ing of much needed classrooms to
house the ever-growing number of
pupils in our public schools, the
United States Office of Education
recently stated. All indications show
that there will be a worse shortage
of both classrooms and teachers in
the next few years.

The report handed down by the
Office of Education said that col-
Jeges are not turning out teachers
fast enough to meet the growing
demand. The report further called
for a study of ways to attract more
youths to the teaching profession
and ways to keep trained teachers
from quitting the profession.
