STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1934

Sports
Chatter
By
Pete Marchetta
The Men’s Athletic Association
Council has hung out the now
familiar sign around State, ‘Sus-
pended for the Duration,
We are all sorry to see MAA off
campus, but it is like that bridge
we often see far in advance, but
which we decide best not to cross
until forced to do so. MAA has
finally crossed its fatal bridge.
Although not in action until State
men return from their “world tour
trip,” MAA Council, under the wise
and foresighted leadership of its
president, Owen Board, has de-
vised a plan whereby some sports
activity will be maintained for the
male students next year.
Prepare For Future
More important is the asking of
an additional $100 on the budget.
(MAA’s other item on the budget is
$50 for intramural athletics.) This
$100 is to be stored away as a start
of a contingency fund. This is to be
increased by $100 annually so that
when the Athletic Council
sume its activities they will
some money to purchase equipment,
uniforms or whatever may be
needed for a resumption of an ath-
letic program.
A student-governed athletic pro-
gram was introduced into State in
1936, In the few short years that
followed, MAA gained the prom-
nence and prestige that it holds
today by doing its job exceptionally
well,
ave proven attrac-
tive to participant and spectator
alike. It is not exaggerating to say
that MAA has given the students
more for their student tax than any
other organization with the possible
exception of the Srate Cot1ece
News.
Let’s Have Gym Classes
Even with the great exodus of
men that State has experienced
there are about ninety men still
registered in the school. (Yes, that’s
true girls.) However, there is such
a large number of previously
signed gym classes, that now only a
few men are in each class, Not
enough men are in any one gym
class to form two teams to play
basketball or any other sport.
We think that it's too late in the
year to completely reorganize the
gym classes as was done last semes-
ter, However, it could be arranged
whereby two or three of the present
gym classes can be combined into
one and regular attendance taken.
This will be somewhat better than
having Jess than a half-dozen men
doing calisthenics in the commons
or in the gym.
Intramural Council
PlansSoftballRace
Despite the seurcity of men around
State College now, MAA is making
plans for the continuance of this
year's athletic program.
With softball season in the offing,
Intramural Council is in hopes of
presenting a league, Although noth-
ing is definite as yet, a four or five
team league is probable. Potter
Club, Finks and the Dorm are cer-
tain to put teams on the field, while
KB may possibly be able to compete
and an’ independent team maue up
of the rest of the men will probably
be represented
The chances are very slim that
there will be any more than thirty
men here next year. MAA will be
discontinued for the duration and
only a small remnant of Intramural
Council being left to carry on the
good) work this organization has
done in the past
Tentative plans fur next year will
result in the abolition of MAA
Some sort of Intramural Council,
however, will be set up with about
fifty dollars in their budget to cover
their expen:
It is expected that those men who
are interested in sports next year
will call a general meeting among
themselves and decide what organ-
ized sports they can have,
Final IM Statistics
Uphold Champion
Old Records Fall As
Singer Paces Aces
For the first time since its pur-
chase by I-M Council, the basket-
ball trophy has left the possession
of College House, and will now re-
main at Potter Club for the dura-
ion.
The Ramblers and Kappa Beta
finished in a tie for runnerup honors
with 7 wins and 4 losses apiece, and
were followed by the Finks, KDR,
SLS, and the Dorm, in that order.
Jn winning 11 of 12 games, EEP
averaged 38.4 points per game, their
offensive being stopped only once by
the KB's tight zone. Records of all
sports were smashed, as their excel-
lent pass work set the stage for high
individual and team scores.
Kappa Beta, with virtually the
same team they had last year,
played inconsistent ball, incurring
several unexpected defeats which
squelched their bid for first place
honers. The Ramblers, who scored
fewer points than their opponents,
nevertheless managed to win a ma-
jority of their games.
The Finks, after a slow start,
began to play first division ball and
passed the squads from KDR and
SLS, whose greatest weaknesses lay
in their inability to replace drafted
men. Despite several good players,
the Dorm wai icapped by in-

so completed as Hal Singer's
100 points barely topped Chellemi’s
99. Singer's one-point lead was
greatly abetted by his participation
in two more games, one a brilliant
28-point performance, but on the
other hand $ average per shot
was undoubtedly higher.
Hippick, who left the I-M League
after three games to play jayvee
ball, attained an average of 13 points
per game for the highest in this
department. The honors, however,
go to Chellemi, who compiled an
average of 9.9 points per game for
10 games.

Gone are the days when the
women of State could get their ath-
letic exercises and enjoyment in
vicarious fashion by watching men’s
sports. Now with all the men, in the
service or practically all of them,
the women will have to provide ath-
letic excitement at State.
Why don’t we have a feminine
tennis team formed to compete with
other colleges? Nora Giavelli and
Flo Garfall make a capable nucleus
about which such a team could be
built. Perhaps they could play St.
Rose, Skidmore, Sage, or even Siena
and Union if they are still function-
ing next year.
Intercollegiate Competition
In the past years WAA has made
many attempts to have athletic con-
tests with women's colleges in the
vicinity. Such attempts have not
been very successful, yet since the
athletic program of State will un-
dergo radical changes next year,
such a program might well be tried
again. Although St. Rose does not
offer a very extensive sports pro-
gram, both and Skidmore
should be able to produce teams
capable of offering stiff competition
for State players.
Soon the budget will be presented,
to the student hody. It is to be
hoped that when WAA’s budget is
considered that the students will
remember that next year WAA will
have a uter responsibility than
ever before,

WAA Begins
Its Spring Season
As the WAA Spring season be-
gins, softball, its main sport, comes
into its own. Practice has already
started. Last Wednesday at 3:30
about twenty girls came to the Page
Hall gym for the first practice.
Saftball will continue to be held in
the gym until weather permits mov-
ing outdoors.
This year there will be an inova~
tion—a girl's softball league. Houses
will form teams and games will be
played off in the same manner as
the basketball league. For those
who are not on particular teams
there will be a game on the Dorm
field simultaneously with the league
games.
The captains, Dot Townsend and
Mary Now, promise that there will
be an opportunity for all girls to
participate and urge that teams be
formed as rapidly as possible. There
will be another practice today at
3:30 P.M. and every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday from now on!
It is predicted that hiking, a new
sport this year will be popular,
healthful and a lot of fun. The
program includes a long hike Satur-
with the girls bringing along
their lunch. If all those interested
will sign up immediately on the
WAA bulletin board a captain will
be appointed and the sport begun,
Five leams Place
MenOnAll-Stars
Following the usual procedure
upon completion of an intramural
sport, representatives of the seven
intramural teams submitted their
choices for an All-Star team.
The well balanced outfit from
EEP dominated the squads as they
placed two men on the first five and
three on the second. Kappa Beta
placed one on each, the Finks and
Dorm were each represented on the
first team, and a Rambler garnered
the remaining second team position,
Voting was close among these ten,
although only two men, Flax and
Singer received unanimous ballots.
The electors cast their votes with
consideration for offensive value,
defensive value and team value.
The teams are as follows:

Dewey requesting that an investigation be made of the teaching of history

of the committee, contended that at the Milne school “ersatz” history had
been substituted for the story of the United States,

Eerie Setting
For ‘New Effect’
By Dorothy Me
There's a different atmosphere
around school these days, We de-
cided to find out what it was and
so, following our noses we wound
up in Page Hall, where the A.D.
play was in progress of rehearsal,
The “different” turned out to be
the cerie atmosphere which was
emanating straight out of the late
Victorian setting of the — play.
Right in the middle of this setting
of heavy furniture and dark drapes,
Aney, Breunig, Studebaker, Ham-
pel, Ryan and Ashworth were prac-
icing, And it was then that we
really noticed something different
For there on the stage, Breunig
and Studebaker were going through
the most cenvineing “mad” scene.

worse, there's Trece who had just

But here was the pay-off. As the

that Ashworth is a CAD, one of

was Hampel making the most per-

We are a skeptical minded generation and. yet

it is of utmost importance, Ask the boys in

At State College there are # number of relig-
ious organizations, there iy a number of students
who take part in these organizations and at the
vine time there are many who take no. part.
Phese organizations, SCA, Newman, Hillel, and
other groups have planned excellent programs
during this school year, yet how many students
have taken part or even attended? Very lew,
considering the size of our student body,
Phe imajority say that they are too busy—
hool work, jobs, extra-curricular activities,
part-time employment. Yet many can find time
to play bridge in the commons, or gossip for an
hour to two in the Boul and on Sunday morn

ities at hand it seems regrethul that more do not

War Fronts by Ryan
For the first time in history, the
President and Vice-President were
abroad simultaneously, in this week
of the war, Both traveled to Mex-
ico, to strengthen international rela~
tions, One remembers the days
when our oil wells were conficated,
and reads with interest the Presi-
dent's statement that “we know
that the day of exploitation of the
rescurces and the people of one
country for the benefit of any group
in another country is definitely
over.” Both Presidents promised
greater collaboration between their
countries in the future,
Quisling, who replaced Benedict
Arnold for the doubtful honor of
the world’s foremost traitor, jour-
neyed to Hitler’s retreat for a mys-
terious conference. Probably on the
annoying refusal of the Norwegians
to be conquered spiritually. Broad-
casts on Schicklegruber’s birthday
were interrupted by a ghost voice.
Goebbels must have lost a little
more of his hair, The voice pre-
dicted new air raids on the Reich,
and undoubtedly gave the Ger-
man audience some uncomfortable
thoughts for the day.
The British Eighth Army took the
offensive against the last Axis posi-
tions in North Africa, and forced
a breach in the enemy line at En-
gridaville. The attack is presum-
ably carrying out the plan of
driving the Nazis into the sea,
which is a nice place for them
after all, However, Rommel is still
strongly entrenched in the moun-
tain ridges to the north.
The Navy reported that Kiska
had been bombed nine times in one
day, which seems to mean that the
Japs have an efficient air base for
attacking our Alaskan _ airfields.
The strategy of these constant
bombings is a bit dubious to the
layman, since it seems that the Japs
merely fill up the bomb craters
with the nearby debris, and keep
right on going. In the Southwest
Pacific, the Allied forces continued
bombing on Japanese positions.
A Frenchwoman escaped to Eng-
land in a fishing boat, warned that
only a threat of invasion in 1943
sustained the occupied peoples.
She warned that Frenchmen were
at the end of their tether physically

invasion,

Chatter
By
Pete Marchettay
One full month remains in the
men’s athletic program. ‘This pro-
vides plenty of time for the comple-
tion of a softball schedule. Now
that a four-team league is definitely
decided upon, there should be no
time lost in organizing a schedule
and setting the opening dates.
Time is a very important element
and the sooner the softball league
can start, the better. Inclement
weather can play havoc with almost
any outdoor sport schedule. This
is especially true with softball.
Third Round Possible
Then too, only six games will
comprise one round, By starting
the league at an early date it will
be possible to play at least two
rounds with a good possibility of
a third, how about beginning before
next week is ou?
Every year the people in charge
of softball find it very difficult to
get men to volunteer for umpiring,
This year the need for umpires is
greater than ever. It is essential
that competent persons are assigned
to govern games, However, this
cannot be done unless enough peo-
ple sign up and can be instructed
in the ground rules. In order to
facilitate matters and elminate pos-
sible arguments, we will publish
elsewhere on this page the ground
rules that will govern the softball
league this year.
Starting Time a Problem
The starting time for games this
year will present a problem to Gil-
ien and Reed, who are in charge of
the softball league. Allowance must
be made for those players who have
labs in the afternoons, and there
are many. The absence of one or
two players will probably mean the
postponement of the con
every squad will have few reple
ments, if any.
We would like to suggest that
the starting time be set for 5
P.M. This will allow suflici
time for those having late labs and
also the games will be finished at a
time which will not be too late for
supper.

I'd like to go riding, but I'm a
trifle afraid, since I've never been.
Are they very spirited?” That in-
nocent query’ brought Silver Queen
to mind. Dear, staid Silver Queen,
never willing to move faster than
slow walk, snatching at every ex-
cuse to pause and sleep, she’s a
horse that we would recommend for
any novice. Of course there are
other horses for those who like to
ride not just sit on a horse. There
are Captain and Ginger and King.
But Silver Queen with her placid
calm is the horse with the colorless
