Affairs Of State
By THE REALIST
Dearly beloved freshmen,
You have left your families (sob),
your home town friends, and have
entered Albany State, an immense
conglomeration of pseudo characters,
optimistic Seniors, rah-rah gung-ho
hypocrites, and pedantic teachers.
There is still time for you to es-
cape. You can either transfer to a
decent college or write to Oedipus,
who will be more than pleased to
help you adjust yourself to this
drunken rat race kind of life which
we lead here,
You have been told that for every
one of you accepted three have been
rejected. This statistic is entirely
correct; however, may I point out
t at you were never told the quality
of those that were not accepted.
Therefore you are being compared
to nothing, which is an_ utterly
stupid concept; but then again, this
is college and “ours is not to reason
why, our is but to do and die.”
Your level of personality has been
accurately determined by such
philosophical questions as
Do you ( ) Haye you ( ) hated
your mother (check one), Do you
count cracks in the sidewalk as you
walk? Yes ( ) No(_ ). (By the way,
if you do, there are 238 cracks from
Ontario to Quail on the Washington
Tavern side of Western Avenue, I
was told by one of my pedagogical
friends.)
Do you feel someone is trying to
poison you? Yes ¢ ) Not), (If you
answered yes to the previous ques-
tion, you fall into the category of a
normal student—one who believes
the teachers are trying to poison
his mind.)
Members of the class of 1964, you
are undergoing a period in your life
commonly called Orientation, This
process is composed of many worth-
while phases such as lighting cigar-
ettes for upperclassmen, attending
a meeting once a week, singing
songs upon request, and running
around with an idiotic head gar-
ment, Do not smirk, lowly freshmen,
for throughout your four years, you

never been so satisfied with myself.
Well, that’s enough philosophical
wisdom for one issue. I sincerely

“HOMECOMING
WEEKEND”
Views of
Denmark
By MARY LOU GALLAGHER
One important day that all of the
American Experimenters and Dan-
ish families never spoke of was the
day of parting. In just two months,
ten Americans had become a real
part of ten Danish families, and all
our thoughts and feelings culminat-
ed in the last good bye.
The scene at the Copenhagen
railway station is one that will a
ways remain with me. Mother, Fa-
ther, and Winnie were standing
together trying to smile and tell me
the last bits of news. My cousins,
the Plambecs, had arrived in all the
confusion that only four Danish
sisters can create, and Knud and
two of my closest Danish
were present. Besides this
little group, the families of two oth-
er Americans were represented, Ev-
eryone was talking at once know-
ing that these were our last wor
together. Someone produced flow-
ers for we three voyagers and the
boys carried our twelve pieces of
luggage onto the train, I finally as-
sured Mother that nine sandwiches,
oranges, and soda would last until
we reached Paris. Then, far down
the platform, the conductor's whistle
sounded. Last minute hugs and
promises of letters, and we were
aboard the train trying to smile
into the anxious faces turned up to
us. “We'll be back,” were our last
shouts as the train slowly moved out
of the stattion.
What I experienced this past
summer in Denmark can never be
changed or forgotten. It happened,
through all of you at State College.
This is as much your experience
as mine. The ambassador program,
new this year, will only be success.
ful if I can talk to you, and if you
are interested in listening. I thank
all of you from the bottom of my
heart, and I hope that someone
else will be able to share a similar
experience next year,

STATE COLLEGE NEWS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1960
Out of the Valley of Page...
A recent decision by Siena College officials has given
our college a golden opportunity to step into the college
basketball spotlight in the City of Albany. For years State
has been struggling in “match-box-like” Page Gym while
Siena has been enjoying the spaciousness of the Washing-
ton Avenue Armory. This season, however, Siena has de-
cided to move its entire operation to the Loudonville cam-
pus and play all its home games in their own Gibbons Hall.
This move leaves a vacant armory which could easily be-
come available to the Sauersmen. Only two things are
necessary to effect this move which would indeed bring our
college into the public’s aroused eye.
The first, and most important, is financial backing
to defray the tremendous costs of such a plan. The cost
per game, including baskets and bieachers, is somewhere
between $700 and $1000, This fee also includes the privi-
lege of afternoon practice sessions on the huge hardwood
court.
The second factor, which is closely aligned with the
first, is the full support of every member of the Student
Association. Their attendance at every home game is not
only needed, but also probable assistance in the selling of
season's tickets to local merchants and other citizens of
the Albany area. The sale of such tickets would aid greatly
in defraying the over-all expense of the program.
This question is still very much up in the air, but perti-
nent facts are presently being compiled to accurately de-
termine the feasibility of this step.
The News is reporting this tentative move at the pres-
ent time in order that all students might have enough
time to think their feelings and express them openly. If
student support is wholehcarted, as it most certainly should
be and if certain variables develop favorably, State can
become a focal point of area interest
This is not only important in that it will give the Sau-
ersmen a home worthy of their talent; but, furthermore,
this is a time when State College must convince Albany
that we should stay and expand right here in the capital of
the Empire State.

Communications
To the Faculty and Student Body,
c/o The Editor, State College News.
The general topic of complaint
lately, has turned to the area of
negativism: negativism in all as-
pects of our life. For the most part,
the arguments offered are valid
ones, especially as regards the State
College News. The News does em-
brace a negative attitude, one that
has been passed down from class
to class even from before the time
I spent here previously, three years
‘ago. So, by and large, the attitude
is not a new one. However that is
not saying that the situation can-
not be altered; it can and should.
But before anything can be done,
the problem of finding the roots of
this negativism must be solved first.
Since this letter is pointed partic-
ularly to the News, perhaps a good
question to ask is: Why are State
College students, more specifically
those associated ‘with the News, so
given to the negative attitude? I do
not disregard the fact that the at-
titude is an inherited one, but where
did our predecessors acquire such
an attitude? To answer these ques-
tions, T would ask another ques-
tion: Has anyone ever thought that
perhaps this attitude is not some-
thing cultivated by the student body
alone, but rather, a reflection of
those having the most direct influ-
ence on the student body, namely
the faculty?
To support this seemingly flag-
int. statement before somebody
s excited, T should like to cite
examples, It is fairly common

WEAK WEEK
The above quote sort of makes living sound like a disease. Yes,
everyone is sick—either mentally or physically or both, L.L.L. Sick, sick,
sick!
HOLE IN THE HEAD
A certain soccer player really is sick. Who has a bigger hole in his
head—he or the person responsible for not having a doctor available at
all games? Beanies are useful, and so are the other materials utilized
for that preposterous headgear, but there is a point where Firt Aid ends
and stupidity begins.
OH, NO!
Oh, yes! Our whole soccer team is sick—sick at heart because their
chances for being qualified to enter the tournament were severely jeopard-
ized by their ast Tuesday. Defeat is not hard to take when all
possible efforts are made to prevent it, but there is a definite lack of
togetherness umong our big three—academics, athletics, and administra-
tion, Principles and policies have their places, but not by books alone do
college men live.
SILLY BOYS!
IFC is also sick if they think that the State University system is
going to present them with the golden key to campus cocktails. Coed

The Solecist
By BILL FRANKONIS
The anapest of parabasis are ac-
companied by a flute.
This is & sterling statement I ran
across while doing a little outside
reading for one of my courses last
week. (That course has since been
changed . .. I am no longer in it.)
Nevertheless, being a person with
some amount of curiousity, I de-
cided to find out just exactly what
hidden meaning lay in that little
yem of rhetoric. And it meant just
exactly what I suspected . . . abso-
lutely nothing. Nothing useful, that
and in this great age of utility,

hanging around. Especially anapests,
even engraved anapests. And if T
were that author, I'd be careful how
I used that word parabasis. People
offend easily in this great age of
thin skins and muted minds. I
mean, how would you like being

basis, you. There. How does it feel?

why I'm always looking for them

it must have some worth. Especially

The AMIA Football League con-
tinues to roll along with one upset
after the other. Undefeated Water-
bury Hall is leading the league with
Potter and KB right behind.
A number of the members of the
Waterbury team are members of the
fraternities on campus. This work-
ing together along with freshmen
and independents is one of the best
things to happen in the football
league in years.
perience Needed
When a freshman comes to State,
he has no idea of how to organize
a team to compete in a tough AMIA
football league. It takes experience
to have a successful team in the
league. Congratulations are in order
for the men Who put the Waterbury
team together, »
EEP Wins
Potter and KB tangled in a game
Thursday which could be the key
to the title, EEP won by a 2-0 score
The entire game was a defensive
one.
Neither team scored in the first
half. KB and Potter had trouble
moving the ball past their own 30
yard line. Collapsing defenses and
jitterbugging linemen seemed to
have both offenses confused

KB runs around the ends, Joe Gil-
bert and Tom Ellis did the same
thing to Potter,
Both quarterbacks had to hurry

line seemed to be able to hold the
other line. Mike Riley threw some
nice block, in the backfield while
protecting the Potter quarterbacks
Jow Gilbert did the same in the KB

Lines Play Hard
Both teams tried but neither

Tn the 4th quarter, Potter vook ad-

The penalty put KB an the 'y yard
line. On the punting down, a bad
pass from center resulted in the
kicker stepping out of the end zone
for the lone score of the game
APA Scores
This past Monday one of the

en APA played unbeaten Waterbury.
APA wasted no tin in scoring
Early in the first quar Jeff Sahns

In the second quarter Mike Cam-

on the ground. Passing easily be-

Nature Of Play
Cometh is) not iw
cheerful play, even
The Ie
pleasant or
though it possesses a considerable
comic element, It is a major work
by America’s greatest dramati
play in which O'Neill does not hesi-
tate to employ strong language and
an uncompromising view of some
of the harsher realities of life in
the development of his essentially
pessimistic theme, It is not light or
sual entertainment; it is a pow-
ful, disturbing drama that re-
is a tragic view of life
he play is directed by Dr. Jarka
Burian assisted by Norman Kutzer

“Iceman” Lauded at Ithaca
To Openat Page October 28
By ELAINE ROMATOWSKI
The State College Theatre's pro-
duction of Eugene O'Neill's The
Iceman Cometh was spectacularly
received by the theatre-goers of
Ithaca, New York, with a standing
ovation at its opening last weekend.
In Page Hall, at 7:30 p.m. on
October 28-29, the Hopes and To-
morrows of the world will again
smoke their pipe-dreams and don
their DTs as a State College audi-
ence bears witness to a few of life's
more stirring tragedies.
The usual State College “greats”
d the cast of characters whose
dreams are temporarily frozen by
the infamous Iceman.
Ralph Smith, as Hickey, once
again makes all the stage his world
and brings the performance to an
emotional climax with his lengthy
lust-act- monologue.
Murty Molson, whose role in the
‘ave Dwellers last year brought
him into the spotlicht, plays Joe,
the “real white” Negro, with such
complete realism that to the viewer
he becomes one of the most pitiful
and most convincing characters in
the entire play
Danny Labeille ages at least forty
years into the character of the dis-
tilled and pathetic Hugo whose
wi moments, althoush com-
paratively few, are perhaps the most
moving of the production
Among the down-trodden, aleo-
hol-souked souls of Harry Hope's
wers one bit of pure com-
Harry Hope himself. John
the would-be politician
wears his Irish brogue as convinc-
ingly as he does his allegorical
name-tag.
The de and weary resiyna-
tion of ” 'y,””" who is “afraid to
live and even more afraid to die,”
ably projected through the. tal-
ents of Bruce Earl, a relative new-
ccuner to State College ‘Theatre.
Robert Congem whose life as
Parritt,” Hickey's parallel, ends
with a sickening thud, presents an
exceptionally good portrayal of the
weak-willed young traitor.
Bonnie Scott, Brenda Caswell,
and Leona Coughlin, the three
ladies of unquestionable reputation,
us well as Ken Taylor as the Dutch-
man, George Hathaway as the
and George Cavanaugh as
Jimuny Tomorrow should also be
noted for their outstanding perfor-
in rather difficult roles.
eaction of a State College
audience to an experience as pro-
found and profane as the Iceman
is questionable, especially since a
majority of the viewers will be
freshmen and their parents. Each
character is a masterpiece in itself,
and only a well-trained theatre au-
dience could be able to appreciate
the full impact of each of their
catastrophic personalitie:
Congratulations to Dr.
Burlan and the entire cast and s
lor a production unequalled in the
dramatic history of State. Certainly
with such talent and such expert
on available, the State Col-
Theatre will soon be ranked
umons the top amateur theatrical
sroups in the State of New York
lo.
