‘optball Injuries: :’

“Por inost people; the intramural
football season is past and forgotten
‘asvfar ‘as State College. is concerned.

‘However this- year’s football cam-
paign is not so easily eclipsed from
ithe minds of. two. intramural foot-
- ball players: lying in a bed in Albany
Hospital. The .two men, “Moose’
“Gerber and’ Terry: Smyth, head a
large list of ‘injured. players during
, the past season.

.With the exception of Gerber and
Smyth, the injuries were of a minor
nature and everyone is back to
normal physical condition, These
two, however, had to be removed
to & hospital to undergo operations.
* With hospitals come huge hos-
pital bills and this creates quite
a problem to the whole of State
College. The total hospitalization
and doctor bills for the two students
amount to about $250, This ex-
ceéds by far MAA’s usual infirmary
fund of $300, Therefore, under
present conditions it is impossible
for MAA to pay the hospital bill.

Funds Lacking

This is the’ first time that such
a situation has presented itself in
the college, Previous injuries to
students participating in athletic
events have been minor ones, and
within the limit of MAA’s intirmary
fund, In fact, every year the ath-
letic Council’ has been returning
most of the $300 of its infirmary
fund back to the Student Association
surplus. _

It is true that students partici-
pate in intramural sports voluntarily.
However, we feel that it will be un-
fair to let the students pay the bill.
‘The student body as a whole can
pay it a lot easier than can the
private families of the two injured
students. MAA has promised to pay
$150 of the bill, but this amount falls
short by a large margin.

Under present conditions there is
no other agency with the exception
of the . budget surplus, through
which the money could be obtained.
The surplus is to be used in case
of emergencies. If this isn’t an
emergency, we would like to know
what is.

A motion to obtain this money
will have to be made in Assembly.
When this is done, let every student
cast his vote with this in mind;
How would you vote if you were
in the-hospital bed instead of Gerber
or Smyth?

What of the Future?

State College was caught flat-
footed when the two students suf-
fered major injuries, Such a situ-
ation cannot be allowed to happen
again. With special emphasis placed
on‘physical fitness in the college, es-
pecially the commando course and
more spirited gym clas:
tramural contests, the chances of
inj have increased appreciably,

must be taken to insure
that enough money is being set aside
to provide for such casultie:

We would like to suggest that
MAA and WAA he empowered to
start a combined infirmary fund so
that if any college man or women
is injured in athletic events, funds
are available to take care of any
hospital bills. One way of starting
this fund may be to put the re-
‘mains of each year's infirmary
quota into this combined fund un-
til an arbitrary amount is reached,
say $1000.

Another suggestion may be
investigate the possibilities of
suring the students participating in
sports. ‘The premiums could
divided proportionally and paid by
MAA, WAA and the college admin-
istration, The administration js in-
cluded because we believe that
everyone who is taking gym should
be insured if it's financially possible.

l5e a Game for School League
From 9:00 A, M, to 6:00 P, M.

I-M Race Meet
Won by Guarino,
Tucker Second

By virtue of his victory in the
final heat of the 80-yard dash, the
main event of last week's intra-
mural meet, Gene Guarino was pro-
claimed the fastest man in the I-M
football league. This meet, the first
of its kind ever held at State, took
place on the Page Hall field. It was
sponsored by Bart Kiley through
Intramural Council for the purpose
of determining the fastest man, the
best place-kicker and punter, and
the longest and most accurate passer
in the league.

Nosing out Bill Tucker by a two-

‘yard margin, Guarino won the title

of the fastest man in the Intramural
League. Dave Griffin took third
place. Tucker beat Tassoni in the
first heat, turning in the fast time
of 9.2 seconds. Griffin won the sec-
cnd heat over Guarino in 9.4 seconds.
The final heat was run in 9.5 sec-
onds, Frank Hansen, one of the
pre-race favorites, was nosed out in
the first heat.

Rich Young booted the oval
sphere 57 yaras 2 feet and 9 inches
to win the kicking contest. Johnny
Sussina with a boot of 51 yards 2
feet and 8 inches placed second in
the event.

Place-kicking the ball 41 yards,
Joe Tassoni nosed out Rich Young
whose best try was 40 yards,

Fay Welch tossed one into the
basket to defeat all rivals in the
accuracy-passing contest.

Triple threat man Tassoni, who
did quite well in each of the four
contests, climaxed an “on” day by
winning the long distance passing
contest. His best heave was good
for 51 yards. Ernie Mennillo and
Red Evans tied for second place,
each getting a toss of 48 yards.

Chess Club Sponsoring
New Membership Drive

A movement is now underway in
the undergraduate body to revive
the Chess Club, an organization
which has gathered fame to its name
in years past with its impressive
victories,

At present Jim Wahler and Clar-
ence Oarr are seaking out possible
members to form a new nucleus to
replace the fine players lost in last
June's graduation. Plans are un-
der way to hold meetings and dis-
cussions on play, as well as to give
aid to any who may lack sufficient
skill or experience,

An initial step in this direction
came in the form of a match be-
tween Sayles Hall and SLS players
a week ago yesterday which ended
in a draw, each team winning three
gam Tt is hoped that similar
meetings between other groups will
uncover more talent and lend im-
petus to the movement.

Any student who might be inter-
ested or desires further details
should consult Oarr or Wahler as
soon as possible so that the ground-
work may be started immediately.

Tennis Tourney Incomplete

The closing of the Washington
Park courts has made completion
of the WAA tennis tournament im-
possible, and the remaining three
matches will be played in the spring.

The main factors of the delay were
poor weather conditions and the in-
ability of the contestants to arrange
the playoffs of their matches. Alsq
the tournament got off to a later start
than last year's

_ It is expected that the semi-
finalists will complete their matches
and that the victor will secure the
cup as soon as the courts are again
opened.

It Could
Be

Wurz

At this point there are few things
so intriguing to the women of State
as the Commando course. While
most of the girls are content merely
to talk about it, three intrepid souls
decided to try it. Flo Garfall,
leader of the Sophs, Marie DeChene,
glamorous sports writer, and Peggy
Bostwick, dynamic mite, appropri-
ately clad in faded dungarees and
plaid shirts, set out to try their
luck.

So the three lined up to take the
hurdles. Up and over went Garfall
and DeChene—up but not over
went Bostwick. Peggy, never giv-
ing up, climbed the hurdles in a
fashion hardly approved in the
best Commando circles.

Up and Over

The wall presented the real prob-
lem to our lady Commandos. Once,
twice, three, four times they tried
to mount it. No luck. Then they
went into a huddle and decided to
boost Bostwick to the top of the
wall, So Dee and Flo lifted Peggy
to the top. Then the mighty Gar-
fall braced herself and made the top
by her own power. Dee, with as-
sistance from above and_ below,
soon joined her pals. “Let's wait
here a moment or two,” gasped Flo,
“just until I start breathing again.”
So they rested, perched gingerly on
the narrow top. Then down they
jumped, at least Flo and Peg did,
but Dee insisted that she was stuck
and would never be able to get
down, But at last, she too, hit
the ground and the three completed
the course.

The Woman's View

“What do you think about it?” we
asked. “What do you mean—what
do we think about it—are you kid-
ding?” said Dee. “I'll never be able
to walk again.” “I don’t think that
it would give any man in the college
any trouble,” was Garfall’s contri-
bution. Bostwick just groaned.

On the next day all three of our
Women Commandos said that as far
as they were concerned, the Com-
mando course could be given to the
men, but permanently.

Hatfield Attends
NYC Conference

Last Thursday and Friday Coach
G, Elliot Hatfield attended a joint
Armed Forces conference in New
York City. This conference was
held by the Army, Navy and Air
Force in order to acquaint physical
instructors of the various colleges
and universities with what training
the undergraduate men students are
expected to receive. Coach Hatfield,
in his capacity as physical director
of the men of State College, repre-
sented this institution.

In general, the ideas outlined at
the conference are already in use
here. The different methods of ob-
taining the best results in the short
times allotted in most college curri-
culas were discussed, Coach Hat-
field brought back a list of recom-
mended calisthenics, and plans to
use them in the gym classes. Run-
ning was s to be the best
conditioner r stamina and long-
windedness.

Military training, it was empha-
sized, is not desired in the colleges.
If the student is in good physical
condition when he enters the Army,
his military training can be much
shorter and easier. Training in co-
ordination and timing, however, such
as can be obtained by running over
an obstacle course similar to that
which State has, is desirable

Varsity Cagers
Start Scrimmage

The second week of varsity bas-
ketball practice brought about few
changes, except for the smoothing
out of the technical defects in the
candidates. The drilling on passing
and other fundamentals is bearing
fruit, as evidenced by the disap-
pearance of the erratic passes and
faulty dribling which characterized
the earlier sessions.

An innovation in the past week
was the start of the scrimmage
practices. Strong emphasis is still
placed on the fast break figure
eight offense, and the man to man
defense

All of last year’s lettermen in
school at the present time are out,
with the exception of Combs and
Gerber, who are still on the in-
jured list, However, Combs is ex-
pected to be able to go very shortly.
Gerber’s chances of being allowed
to return are considered very slim.

After a good showing earlier in
the year, freshmen candidates were

st week, no more
two being present for any
one practice.

Since there are only a total of
two and a half weeks remaining for
practice before the first contest, with
the break for Thanksgiving vaca-
tion coming right in the middle,
Coach Hatfield has plans for some
strenuous sessions to come.

NEWS Elects
Six Sophomores

To Desk Positions

Board Also Chooses
Business, Sports Staffs

The Board of the Strate Cottece
News released this morning the re-
sults of the election held this week
to determin’ which of the competing
reporters shuld succeed to the
positions of Sophomore Desk Edi-
tors. Others were also elected to
the Sophomore Sports and Business
Staffs.

The Desk Editors for the year
1942-43 are: Gordon Baskin, Sunna
Cooper, Jane Heath, J. Michael Hip-
pick, Dorothy Meyers and Barbara
Putnam. In this election, the News
reverted to its customary policy of
electing six to the Sophomore Desk.
Last year the Board created two
special positions to provide an ade~
quate working staff required for the
expanded program under which the
News operated. With six-page is-
sues necessarily eliminated this year
to a large extent, it was felt that
eight Sophomores were not needed

Business, Sports Add to Staffs

At the same election, additions
were made to the Sports and Busi-
ness staffs.

The Junior Business Staff is com-
posed of Herman Blumel, Mary Cor-
bett, Georgia Hardesty, Carmelina
Losurdo and Jane Pickert. Clarence
Oarr is Junior Assistant Sports Edi-
tor, and Margaret Byrne is also on
the Junior Sports Staff

Lois Drury and Dorothea Smith
have been named to the Sophomore
Business Staff; Sophomore Sports-
writers are Margaret Bostwick,
Marie DeChene, John Dooley, Stan-
ley Gipp, Joan Hylind, Eugene

Hutchins Gets There First;
Exhibits Snapshots of Africa

When Miss Hutchins brought
back posteards from her tour of
North Africa, she probably
never suspected the timely ap-
pearance they would make in
1942 on the large bulletin board
on the second floor of Draper.

In view of the newly instigated
second front, students may see
in snapshot form what our
soldiers are seeing in reality.

There are colored postcards of
North African natives, depicting
them in every phrase of life.
But even more interesting are
the scenes of Algiers: La Me-
darsa, Jardin Marengo, and La
Cathedrale, Here's your chance
to see what Algiers should and
what it is hoped does look like.

There are also snaps of Casa-
blanea, the Sultan’s home, and
Rabot.

Command: To the Rear, March;
State Girls Go Ever Forward

By Barbara Putnam

To the fellows who are tired of
wetting laughed at as they scramble
over the Commando Course, here's
a tip: Have you watched the girls
marching in the gym? Man, you've
yot a treat in store for you! Heaven
help the army if the State WAACS
join up. How about coming along
with your reporter and having a
luok-see?

As we approach the gym, we stop
suddenly. The sound effects are
really amazing! Is that a herd of
elephants trampling back and forth?
But no, elephants don't titter and
gigegle-it’s the girls’ all right! We
yo on, and as we step onto the bal-
cony, a strange sight meets our eyes.
Advancing across the floor comes the
regiment—but what kind of a forma-
tion is that? It must be a new
technique, guaranteed to fool the en-
emy into believing it is a retreat,
not an advance. Why, they even
had us fooled for a minute! How-
ever, we hate to see the girls
try anything so complicated, so we

call Miss Johnson over, and suggest
that she try straight marching first

“Sssh!” she replies. “That's what
they're doing!”

With that we retire to our corner
and remain there in wondrous
silence for the rest of the period

“Forward, mareh!" barks Miss J
The line trembles, and finally a
brave soul breaks loose and strides
forth. The rest follows her, skip-
ping constantly to keep in step
with the person on their right and
the person on their left, a task
which is virtually impossible.

“Right wheel!” Each girl does a
little maneuver of her own, and
tries to persuade everyone else to
do the same.

“Backward, march!”

“Look out, you!” “You stepped
on my toe!” “Eek!”

Even the girls admit how ridic-
ulous they look. Rez Slote says,
“Every time Miss Johnson gives
an order, we reverse it!” Audrey
Boughton sums up the whole thing
by exclaiming, “It’s a riot!”

Alfred Edward Dedicke

This week the News Board learned that
Colonel Alfred Edward Dedicke, chief of the
organizers of the Srate CotLece News, died on
October 8 of a heart attack while on duty with
his Infanury Regiment at Camp Barkeley, Texas,

[tis extremely difficult: to attempt to. write
about someone we did not know personally,
someone with whom we never worked

But it is not dithcult to say something about
Dedicke. His uame and deeds usually have
been known only to editors of the News, who
are about the only ones who attempt to become
acquainted with the past history of this news-
paper.

Alfred E. Dedicke was the Chairman of ‘The
Committee of the Class of 1918, on Publishing
a Weekly College Newspaper, and as such was
the one who worked the hardest with Dr. Bru-
bacher, the late President of the College, to get
this newspaper under way

We reprint excerpts from the Editorial of May
16, 1917

The ‘News’ goes to print this week with our
Editor-in-Chief, Allred E. Dedicke, absent from
our stall, “Together with six other State College
men Mi. Dedicke lett Albany carly Sunday morn:
ing lor Madison Barracks, the officers’ reserve
training Ganp.

“During the year just dosing he bas been
principally concerned with the publication ol
the ‘News. Only those students who make up
the board know with what zeal, capability and
industy he hay managed the paper. ... No sta
dent better qualified to direct the management
of the paper through the first year of ity existence
could have been found

“Mr Dedicke has gone from us, and though,
in event of his receiving a Commission, there is
grave doubt of his returning to the College, his
influence will long be felt. Phere will never be
a time wheo his Classmates shall cease to honor
and revere him, and if fortune decrees that he
be a leader of troops upon the blood-stained soil
of France, we venture to predict that, there as
here, he will fight with his characterise in
domitable courage, and if spared to return Lou
the great conflict, a reward belitting his efforts
shall not be denied him."

Dedicke never Game back to State College, but
preferred to make the Army his career. And it
was as a leader of troops that he exhausted his
strength. What more fitting end could come to
a fighting spirit like his?

War Fronts by Feigenbaum

Filibuster Employed by Senators
To Block Anti-Poll,;Tax Measure

The good news from the world’s
battlefronts has dominated the news-
paper headlines of this last week,
and relegated an important, though
shameful, item concerning the Uni-
ted States Senate to the fifth and
sixth pages of the country’s papers.
Only one paper thought the article
important enough to warrant a
headline on the front page.

We are speaking about the fili-
buster in the Senate designed to
block action on the anti-poll tax
bill now before that body.

The measure aims to remove the
payment of a poll tax as a requisite
for voting in a federal election.
For the last six days the Senators
from the poll tax states have used
the filibuster to stall senatorial
action on the bill until the Senate
adjourns, thereby defeating the bill.

A filibuster in Congress is not
a debate expressing the views of the
majority and minority, It is not an
attempt to compromise diverging
opinions upon pending legislation.

“The present filibuster hasn't a
thing in the world to do with the
merits or demerits of the poll tax—
the poll tax Senators are tying up
the Senate in wartime not by de-
bating the issues, but by technical-
ities and red tape and useless roll
calls and endless routine. If a fili-
buster aimed at bringing the argu-
ments of a minority before the
people can be defended, a filibuster
that doesn't even pretend to serve
that purpose cannot be defended.

The accusation against the Sen-
ate is not that they are obstructing
the war effort by not passing the
laws necessary for victory. Congress
has voted the necessary money,
passed the eighteen year old draft
bill, but is the sight of the greatest
deliberative body in the world
attempting to block legislation which
would extend the right of franchise
to more people a pleasant one?

PM in its recent editorial stated:

“Something to be proud of, isn’t
it? A great spectacle of democracy
to put alongside the heroism and
sacrifice of our African army, of
our Pacific forces? A great satis-
faction to know that, while our
young men are fighting for democ-
racy in the field, our old men, like
Senator McKellar, preserve it at
home by putting on a spoiled-child,
ery baby act on the floor of the
United States Senate? A great justi-
fication of the principles for which
our country stands in the fight
against Fascism, when men of the
Stature of Senator Bilbo can tie up
the whole processes of government
and prevent rule of the majori

The entire blame of the alibuster
does not lie wholly on the minority,
but the majority is equally, if not
more, to blame, They did not take
the opportunity to prevent the fili-
buster. The will of the majority
should prevail and the minority
should be heard, but the minority
should not be able to block legis-
lation desired by the majority.

Communications

To the Editor:

This will not be an easy letter to
write. Being one of those students
whose ions after an AD play
recently were severely criticized, I
find it hard to keep an unprejudiced
attitude about it all.

‘The party which was wrongly
termed a celebration of a “triumph,”
was in reality a farewell party for
a freshman boy who must leave col-
lege after Thanksgiving. All of us
who had worked with him in the
plays felt badly about his going, and
we wanted to give him a night of
hilarity to remember. I, and all the
others concerned, refuse to apolo-
gize to those who were annoyed by
our songs and impromptu acts.
They fitted in the spirit of the even-
ing, and if th are son prigs”
who think it is “disgusting” to have
a good time at a ewell party, I'm
afraid their opinion doesn't mean
much to us.

We were asked to leave the ——
Tavern, yes, At that time, we were
singing rather quietly, and fee) that
the management was unnecessarily
severe since only two tables. there
were not occupied by State students.
But at the Playdium where we really
“hit it up,” no one asked us to be
quiet or made uny signs of dis-
approval. The organist accompanied
us on many flights of song, and a lot
of the patrons joined in with the
singing. L am rather proud that I
was encored when I sang “Frankie
and Johnny" as a solo—for the first
time in public,

We were drinking—beer. We
noisy there were — about
‘lve of us But we were not
being arty, no more than any other
group of students having a good
time. Perhaps we all are “wet
behind the cars -but if so, it is
a wonderful feeling. Some people
around college might try it some-
time themselves to good advantage

What we do wonder is if the
student body ayrees with us that
every college student should have
an evening ur » of grand and
glorious fun, without having to
eure what people think? We didn’t

destroy any property, we didn’t
molest anyone—all we did was sing,
and rather well, too, if I must say

Well, that’s our side of the story,
ry to the opinion expressed
in a column of the Srate Cot-
tece News last week. We all
sug) that such opinions (stories
reported) be checked for details
from now on, to avoid embarrass-
ment for everyone concerned. We
also suggest that people in glass
houses shouldn't throw stones. We
also send our regrets to all stu-
dents who couldn't be with us
that night—they would have had
the time of their lives. We did.
Defiantly yours,
Rhona Ryan, “44.

To the Edito:

My understanding of the word
“criticism,” taken from Webster's
Collegiate Directory, is “the art of
judging with knowledge the beauties
and faults of lit or artistic
works.” A critic, according to Mr
Webster, is one who expresses his
reasoned opinion of the merits of
literary or artistic works:

Perhaps Miss Marston's review of
Miss Hampel's play was written on
the assumption that it was neither
a literary nor an artistic work

Be that us it may, the guilt can-
not be placed entirely upon Miss
Hampel's shoulders. She had the
very difficult task of producing a

rather long play in two weeks. Dur-
ing one of these two weeks the col-
lege had midsemester exams.

Mr. Loucks had the good fortune
tu direct three members of Advanced
Dramaties class, while Miss H:
had but two, whose performan
is true, Miss Marston noted
of Miss Hampel's cast had not be
on the State College stage before
One of the cast had not been on any
stage

In my opinion Miss Hampel is a
competent director. Possibly 1 um
mistaken, but I think not

Conscientious Objector.

Our Coeds all are grand old girls
They treat us mighty fine.

They fill their clothes out very well
They make our eyes to shine.

Reading, for lack of worthwhile or entertaining
material, the Concordiensis, we were shocked to find
that aspersions had been cast on our fair sex by the
would-be-witticists of said effort. . .

Humor may be just as good as anything else with
which to fill the front page, but insults to guests
should be confined to those defenseless walking ex-
pense accounts, forming the zeros in the 400, of the
more ritzy hencoops .. . Let it be here understood
that our women can hold their own in any league,
and any affront to them will be considered an affront
to our entire student body. . .

speaker at the Newman Club meet-
ing last night, The meeting was
opened at 7:30 P. M,, with a bene-
diction, and was followed by dane-

Annex Committee

(Continued from page 1, colunn 5)

State

plans were drawn up by the
Architect's office to rebuild the en-
tire cafeteria area and to recondi-
tion the dining and recreational fa-
cilities. This was to be done as a
WPA project. Howev'

labor for the: proje
secured and since that time it has
been impossible to ubtain financial
support for the Budget Bureau

In connection with refurnishing
the Annex and Cafeteria area, the
committee suggests new furniture—
new furniture which would be built
by the student body, ‘The purpose of
having the students build the furui-
ture, the committee report added,
would be to give the students
ureater feeling of pride and owner-
ship in the Annex and Cafeteria
Several difficulties immediately
present themselves on this account
said Dr. Sayles “At present there
are priorities on lumber, nails, paint
and all those accessories necessary
fur the completion of such aw project.”

Under the heading of general
recommendations, the — committee
proposed group purchasing on the
campus through a centralized pur-
chasing agent. "This," Dr. Sayles
annour involves a great deal
of capital and also distribution fa-
cilities, And 1 would also like to
know where the capital is coming
from.

In conclusion, Dr. Sayles said tat
he was indebted to the committee
for their constructive ideas, and he
added that the committee will be
maintained as a co-ordinating force
in supervising the operation of the
Annex and Cafeteria

College Changes
Entrance Demands

In order to eliminate summer in-
terviews and at the same time insure
a full quota of freshmen entrants,
a new policy of admission require-
ments has been established by Dr.
Milton G. Nelson, Dean of the Col-
lege, and the Committee on Admis-
sions.

Applications will be receivable
only before April 1, and conse-
quently the scholarship qualifica-
tions will be based upon the January
regents marks. Admissions made
at this time will be tentative, Hith-
erto, the final June regents marks
of the high school seniors were
necessary, and applications were
received as late as September in
sume cases. The final criterion for
entrance will be the June marks
ot the student.

The personal interview and phys-
ical examination will be given in
Albany, but if in certain localities
a large number of applicants war-
rant it, these tests will be given at
designated centers, Syracuse, Buf-
talo, Binghamton, Mineola, Ossin-
ing, Port Henry, Tupper Lake, and
Watertown have been chosen as
possible centers.

These interviews will take place
between April 15 and May 15, and
will include tests for speech and
voice, and a physical examination
given by a college physician. The
results of these will form a per-
sonality score and applicants will be
admitted provisionally in order of
standing, until the established quota
is filled

As before, a minimum of sixteen
units of approved high school work
will be necessary, However, the
unly required subject will be ‘Eng-
lish 4 ye The other twelve

lectual accomplishment and he or

she must be highly recommended by
the school principal,

A limited number of freshmen

The Story of Bona Aimes
Who Cut Her Way-to Fame’

I cut, you cut, we all cut classes,
When it isn’t a necessity, it's a
social custom. But whether it’s due
to a neglected assignment, or to keep
a soda date, it's a cut, They count
up. I'll tell you a little story about
a girl who thought that the cutting
way was the quickest way to a
success.

There once was a girl named
Bona Aimes. She'd been one of
those high school quiz kids, and so
she came to college with home
town blessings, She'd had to pinch
a few pennies, but she promised her-
self she'd succeed,

She was u sweet kid and she
pulled through her first year all
right. Yes, she was one of those
charming freshmen who learns all
the answers without telling anyone
about it, She went with the popular
crowd and made one of the top
sororities. She had talent too, in a
number of things, and she knew
how to talk to people. Everyone
had her marked for a bright future.

During that summer vacation,
Bona decided to start on her glorious
path to fame in her sophomore
year, When she went back she'd
show the stulf she was made of
mighty fine stuff,

That year Bona lived at the
sorority house. That was really fun
with evenings to spend chattering
with the girls, She did have some
history to do, but she could cut
gym tomorrow and do it then, She

By Lucille Kenny

was good in history anyway. She
didn’t worry a bit.

That's how it started, just a gym
class, but then they began to mount
up. Monday morning Bona cut
to sit at the table in the Commons,
Theta Sigma couldn’t let Theta
Alpha get that precious front row
table hefore 12 A. M., so Bona gladly
volunteered to help out. It was
only English class, and Bona was a
whiz in English. ‘Tuesday she cut
to do a story for the school Weekly
Spotlight. Bona was trying for a
place on the Newspaper staff. She'd
Bet it too, for she was clever with
a pencil. Wednesday somebody was
needed at the last minute to sit at
the Operetta Board's table for a
period to sell tickets. Bona had a
class, but she volunteered, After
all, it might help her to become a
meinber of the Council.

And so it happened. At the end
of the year Bona's name was read
from every staff list in the college,
and she was voted the most popular
xirl of the Sophomore Class, She
left for home amid cheers, “You're
headed for the top,” they told her.

But Bona didn't come back to
college next year, They wondered
about her for a while, and then
her clices were replaced by others,
Her name was forgotten.

Bona got a job in a department
store in her hometown, and for all
1 know she's working there still,
Those little yellow cards are what
stopped her flight to glory, those
little yellow cards.

War Stamp Sale
Totals Over $122

Six hours every day, in the little
cardboard house in lower Draper,
victory-minded students sit selling
War Stamps. Working in one-hour
shifts, from about ten in the morn-
ing to four in the afternoon, this
student volunteer group of abvut
thirty-five students has so fi Id
over $122.00 worth of stamps. ‘This
averages more than $11 in stamps
per day, since the booth has been
open since November 3, or only for
eleven days. This means an aver-
age purchase, for those 125 students
patronizing the booth, of one dollar
for a period of approximately two
weeks.

The War Stamp group, under the
direction of Trece Aney, ‘44, is a vital
part of the Council setup, and
war credit is being yiven to those
sitting at the booth. There is a
working fund of $25 worth of
stamps, half of which was loaned by
Forum; the other half by War Coun-
cil. This fund is replenished at a
local Post Office Sub-Station every
day. ‘The booth carries a stock of
1U-cent, 26-cent, and 50-cent stamps.

Herbert Leneker, ‘43, and Trece
Aney, ‘4, are responsible for the
red, white and blue War Stamp
House, They first started building
with the backs of sume old posters,
and some scoteh tape, decorating the
house with flags donated by the
State College News, This little
house, “built. of sand,” soon col-
Japsed.  Leneker then vonstructed a
new house, with seme old wooden
boxes lying around the Publications
Office, this time using both thumb
tacks and seotch tape. So fur this
house has withstoud the weather
and students Paddy the janitor con-
tributed the electric light’ for the
booth, Five hours of hurd liber
and $1.25 in cash was the outlay
required for the finished booth, As
Miss Aney said, “Dimes snd quar-

Chatter

By
Pete Marchettay

Court Schedule Tough

It will be but a mere two weeks
before the varsity basketball squad
will trot out onto the Clarkson court
to inaugurate the 1942-43 basketball
campaign. This year's schedule
promises to be as difficult as any
previous one encountered by State
College quintets.

‘As has been the custom in pre-
vious years, the team will open the
season away, Clarkson Tech playing
the host at Potsdam on December 4.
The Eagles will meet St. Lawrence
on the following afternoon and re-
turn to play RPI and Clarkson be-
fore the Christmas vacation. Thus
the basketball squad will play one-
third of its twelve-game schedule in
two weeks.

Besides the “Larries” and the
“Techmen” the Eagles will meet
such formidable foes as Niagara,
Brooklyn Poly, and Pratt, all of
whom boast teams of better calibre
than the Statesmen. RPI and Union
also expect strong squads for the
coming campaign. The strength of
Middlebury and St. Michael's, the
two remaining State foes, is un-
Known to us as yet, but you can well
expect that they will not be push-
overs.

Candidates Few

Colleges with a small number
of male students find it difficult to
compete in intercollegiate circles.
To this, State is no exception, Al-
most all of its opponents have many
times the number of men in this
college. Moreover, State attracts
few, if any, of the student who
played varsity basketball in their
High School career.

This year will be a unique one, as
far as basketball is concerned as it
will probably be the first time that
Coach G, Eliot Hatfield will not be
forced to cut his basketball squad.
Approximately thirty men answered
Hatfield’s basketball call a few
weeks ago. The Coach planned on
keeping twenty for the varsity and
jayvees, combined. However, sev-
eral candidates have abandoned the
idea of practice, thus decreasing the
number of aspirants to about twenty
Therefore, there will probably be no
cut this year.

The situation is serious, however.
The response for basketball was very
poor, especially so among the frosh~
men and Sophomores, The bulk of
the basketeers is comprised of Ju-
niors and Seniors,

Upperclassmen On JV
Juniors and Seniors are desirable
on the varsity but their presence on
the Junior Varsity is far from a
ceptable. The purpose of the Jayvee
group, as far as we can see, is to
develop players which may be of
use to the ity in future years.
Seniors therefor of no import-
tant value in playing on the Jayvee.
It would be much better if they
were replaced by frosh or Sophs
even though these are less experi-
enced. However, as the sit
stands this y the upp¢
men cannot be replaced as the
not enough freshmen or Sophomores
trying out for Jayvee posts. Only
three of last year’s yearlings are still
practicing, while the frosh b«
mere five aspirants, compare
least twelve in previous years.

McLaren On I-M Council

Intramural Council has recently
had a change in membership, Gene
McLaren, ‘45, replaced Bert Kiley,
"44, as representative of the Ramb-
lers. This change was duc to the
fact that Kiley this year is going
to play ball with Potter rather than
the Ramblers, making him ineligible
to represent the latter team.

I-M Council Plans
Basketball Season
To Open Dec. 1

Games to be Played
Each Tuesday, Thursday

Intramural Council is at present
making plans for the fall opening of
basketball. Bill Marsland and Ed
Reed are in charge of arrangements
and hope to have the first games
played by December first at the
latest.

According to present plans the
games will be played on Tuesday
and Thursday nights on the Page
Hall court. Two games will be
played each night; the first begin-
ning at seven and the second get-
ting under way at eight,

The league will probably be
stronger in manpower this year due
to the emphasis put on sports in the
new athletic training and a deep
feeling of rivalry already being set
into motion by several groups.
However, a strong loss will be felt
if the College House cagers, who
have won the trophy for the past
three years, fail to enter a squad,

The number of teams is not known
definitely as yet, but at least eight,
and possibly ten, will appear. Each
“frat” is expected to display its
talent with individual teams as in
the past. The men’s Dorm will have
one team at least, and plans are
being made for a second if sufficient
players respond to the call. A new
group will form an independent
team, tentatively known as the
“GDIB's", according to present plans,
The Finks and the Ramblers’ will
round out the quota, with College
House making it ten if they enter.

Captains of each of these groups
are urged to turn in their lists of
players as soon as possible to Mars-
land or Reed so that the schedule
of games may be arranged, Men
who would like to referee the games
are asked also to contact the above
two in the near future.

To those players who wish to get
in some pre-season practice, the
gym will be open tomorrow after-
noon from one to five, A large num-
ber of men are expected to take
advantage of this chance.

Player Insurance

MAA council is now investigating
the possibilities of providing ins
ance for varsity and intramural
athletes. The council is determined
to make some provision whereby
medical funds will be available,
should anyone be injured while par-
ticipating in any sport supervised by
MAA

This investigation has been begun
because of the recent hospital cases
incurred in in nural football
games. Serious injuries of this type
had never before occurred, and no
one knew just exactly how to meet
the circumstances.

As explained in assembly last
week by MAA, the president, Owen
Bombard has set up in its ‘annual
budget a fund to cover injuries to

layers of varsity sports, the main

being of course, basketball,

fund at the beginning of the
year amounted to $300, but it has
been cut in half by the payment of
$150 toward the expenses of the
above mentioned cuse. MAA has

possibility of insurancing athletes.
This insurance would include intra

As yet, no definite decision has
been made, but MAA promises that
every possible means will be
thoroughly investigated and what
appears to be the most favorable will
be adopted.

Thanksgiving vacation will end
WAA’s fall program and usher in
the winter sports. Among these are
ping-pong and bowling. We would
like to see WAA inaugurate an
Inter-house Ping-pong tourney as
well as continue last year’s success-
ful Inter-house Bowling League.

We would suggest that the Ping-
pong. tourney be conducted in. this
way. Let each house hold a: pre-
liminary tourney to pick a house
champion, Then, these girls would
compete and the trophy would be
presented to the victor’s house.

At this point, we would like to
say a word to the directors of WAA.
The manner of conducting tourneys
could be improved. The tennis

Gerber Wastes No Time
With Bevy of Pretty Nurses

After kissing some ten or
eleven of his nurses goodbye,
Moose Gerber left the Albany
Hospital on Tuesday afternoon.
Along with the smear of lip~
stick, Moose could be seen sport~
ing a corset made of plaster of
paris (due to the shortage of
rubber), Moose was persuaded
to leave only after the hospital
authorities consented to let a
pretty nurse escort him home
in a doctor’s car.

Just before leaving, Moose bid
goodbye to Terry Smith, who
has been his roommate for the
past few weeks. Terry, who is
recuperating from a knee opera~
tion, will be released sometime
next week.

Basketball Squad
Dwindling Rapidly
AsHopefulsDrop

With three weeks cf fundamental
drills and light scrimmages already
past, Coach Hatfield has his rapidly
dwindling basketball squad practic~
ing diligently for the December 4
opener at Canton. Only about seven
more practice sessions remain before
the annual northern trip which
heads a tough schedule,

Of the thirty odd candidates who
answered Hatfield’s first call, only
twenty-two remain, permitting a
maximum cut of two men if both

arsity and junior varsity schedules
are maintained, However, there is
enough material at least for a fairly

rong varsity team headed by Han-
Bora, Marsland, and Combs
who have’ all played’ regularly for
State at one time or another. Be-
sides these lettermen there are Mil-
ler, Rubach, Lynch, Young, Flax,
and Mullin, with the possible addi-
tion of Braun.

Because of the small number of
aspirants the strength of the junior
varsity is going to depend greatly
on the strength of the varsity. The
greater number of experienced men
on the varsity, the fewer there will
be on the J. V's. However, as it
stands, Kullman and Hippick, two of
last year's frosh, and Reed, Wise,
Capel, and Ashworth, intramural
performers last year, will be left to
add experience to the spirit and
ability of the frosh, Riccardo, Ryan,
Powell, Bortnick, und Woods

The “fast break" and shallow and
deep figure eight systems are being
stressed to provide a varying offense
for the Eagles players.

Congenial Atmosphere at Sayles

Impresses Commissioner Stoddard

By J, Michael Hippick

Dr. George D. Stoddard, Commis
sioner of Education in the State of
New York, i: human, extremely
amiable man, yet one of dynamic
action. At a banquet held in his
honor at Sayles Hall Tuesday, the
impression which he gave to over
150 educators of the state was one
of a man who knew his field
thoroughly and would not hesitate
to act as he saw fit in any matter

Considerably impressed by Sayles
and Pierce Halls, the Commissioner
said that thi

The social aspect
of the place was

His comment was,
“The — dormitory

more than artis-
tic accommoda-
tions.”

As a member
of the Commit
of the Asso
of American

years ago, Dr
Stoddard “at that
time along with
his associates

When asked about the feasibility
of a Student Union in the Farrell
Mansion. he had the greitest respect
for one, “AL some other colleges
the male alumni like to invade the
campus of their forner alma mater
and recall old experiences, and thus
take more interest in the existing
circumstances, Although State is
somewhat handicapped in this re-
spect a student union, nevertheless,
vould be formed here” The financial
backing for such a venture could be

Dr George D. Stoddard

Speaking about education in rela-
tion to present war conditions, Dr.
Stoddard said, “The present five-
year plan should definitely remain.
However, we are at present working
toward an accelerated program,
which would reduce the time to
four years. This could be accom-
plished only through the use of
summer sessions, It would be a
temporary asure and would not

In the field of sports, his theory
was far each person to do whit he
could best. “Intercollegiate games are
valuable,” he added, “but at present
their place is not one of importance:
In their stead should he a large
intramural program.”
