To Dominate State Fair Scene

Horses, prize cows, blue ribbons
we know nothing of in our own
classic event—State Fair. One has to
see the igniting fuse of the whole
evening, “The Most Unusual Fair,”
to realize that the tenor of every-
thing does not bear the odor of har-
dened manure. Each religious club,
frat and sorority will have an able
delegate in the review, written by
Dick Feldman '57. Be on the look-
out for an original song that’s been
whipped up for the event, and which
had had outside copywriting.

rules are just a few of the minor offenses gs listed by the of rusher can be identified by call. He emits a bull-

Commission.

The rules are violated, but by whom? Apparently there
are no offenders, as no names have been reported or pub-
lished. The answer to this lies in the fact that Campus
Commission is not taking advantage of its power to issue
warnings. Whether they are not alert,too apathetic, or
hesitant to give warnings to their friends, we don’t know,
but it is evident they are not fulfilling the responsibilities
of their position. Isn’t there something that can be done

to remedy this situation in the future?

Changes In The Offing . . .

Tentative plans are in progress to have next year’s
Senior, and sorority and fraternity portraits taken for the
1956 Pedagogue this spring. With the taking of pictures
in the spring of the year previous to the publication of the

- proofs would be available before the end of the
semester. This would alleviate the rush in the fall, espe-
cially on the photographer and would leave more time for

yearboo.

unsatisfactory portraits to be retaken,

At present there is much confusion on the part of the
staff as portrait shots, writing copy and captions and dead-
lines all come at once. It takes a great deal of time for the
photographer to take the necessary amount of pictures,
and if they were out of the way, this time could be used
for other work which must be completed. Another problem
Pedagogue faces is trying to coordinate the publisher and
photographer as to layouts and deadlines. If the work on

he book was started earlier, as suggested by this plan, the
ublisher, photographer and statf could cooperate more
‘ully and publish a book in the time presently allotted. We
think this plan will effect more efficient organization and

a better book in the long run.

Last year the transportation line for State College
Athletics amounted to $2,394.00. This was paid to com-
mercial bus lines at a rate of forty-five cents per mile.
State College Alumni groups in different parts of the
state have repeatedly asked for a vocal group for
entertainment at their meetings. It is impossible for
a choral group from State to appear at meetings of
this sort because of the cost of transportation, When
MAA, WAA, ‘fraternities, sororities, education and bi-
ology classes, and religious organizations charter buses
for their trips the rate paid 1s forty-five cents per
mile, Total expenditures become a rather large figure.

Oswego State Teachers’ College purchased from
Student Association funds their first Student Asso-
ciation bus;in 1950. Since then groups of between 15
and 30, acccmpanied by a faculty member, have used
the bus to the extent of thirty thousand miles, The
vehicle in this time has not needed a single major
repair. The bus is financed on a basis of operational
costs plus a small payment toward the initial pur-
chase. The cost for student groups using the bus is
fifteen cénts per mile. And rates for drivers are $1.45
per hour.,'The' drivers, incidentally, are students who
have beefy trained by the School's Driver Education
Department. Groups wishing to use the SA bus merely
sign up ghd‘Ynake a money deposit with the school’s
financial secrétary, These groups include ‘the athletic
squads, musical groups, classes, sororities, fraternities,
religious groups, etc,

The money for the initial purchase of Oswego’s SA
owned bus came from student surplus fund and Fac-
ulty-Student Association.

Plattsburg State Teachers’ College purchased their
first SA bus a while ago and have recently added an-
other second-hand vehicle for student association use.

A whilé ago the matter of an SA bus was brought
up in Student Council. Because of lack of information
the topic could not be adequately discussed. The final
resolution arising frcm the discussion provided that
the group interested plan to get together information
on the operation and purchase of an SA bus for
Albany State and then return to Council.

It seems now as if the procedure to bring a pro-
posal of this sort before Assembly would be to just
air it in entirety before the committee on plans for

French Cabinet Crisis, Formo n |

Conflict Highlight Week's Events ;

By A. R. STEPHENSON

The French political merry-go-round spun gaily for another week,
as two leaders attempted to establish a cabinet and finally gave up!
Now, @ third, Christian Pineau is taking a stab at it. A revision in the
French Constitution, aimed at “speeding” the changes seems to be caus+
ing most of the trouble. The tentative premler must name his coalitior
cabinet and have it accepted with him, The rival parties apparently
are as interested in keeping their opponents from gaining positions as

they are in profiting themselves.

The U. N. Security Council has at least temporarily given up on
the idea of a truce to end the fighting around Formosa. Communist

Book Collection

‘The showcase in the main reading

‘The exhibit contains the follow-

The oldest piece of lterature in
the collection which was published
in 1706, is the “Dialogues of the

sation as might have occurred be-
tween famous people from differ-
ent periods in history. An original

hibit.

To the Editors:

In last week's editorial, Carol Luft,
Managing Editor, presented the re-
sults of her latest peek into her
crystal ball to the effect that cam-
pus.-sororities and fraternities are
doomed to fall as did the National
sorofities and fraternities connected
with” State University set-up.
Now,’ stich prophecies taken alone
are certainly harmless and tolerable,
but when they are garnished with
specious reasoning and emotional
appeals, so as to lend to the proph-

| rom The Eater's

,ecy the dignity of a deduction, they

become downright dishonest.

Personally, I feel that fraternal
organizations cannot be abolished
by just an, administrative order, no
matter what its source. If the fra-
ternal spirit prevails, it will mani-
fest itself in secret organizations
and activities. As a case in point,
the State College Society of Radi-
cals, Atheists and Pree Thinkers is
one such secret fraternal organiza-
tion which had to have its birth
underground, due to the extreme
adverse pressure anticipated from
various social and governmental
agencies,

With reference to the other edi-
torial greasing the fiasco of the
tardy final marks, in her argument
the Chief used the fact that Syra-
cuse niversity took two years to
adapt itself to the IBM system, but
neglected to state that Syracuse
has a student body of more than
five times ours—a significant omis-
sion. Further, her’ bringing to light
the fact that: “It was estimated
that lt would be a year before State
could fully adapt (to the IBM sys-
tem) ...” seems to argue that the
delay of issuance of grades was an-
ticlpated, but nobody did anything
about it, The easy hindsight reme-
dy, of course, would have been to
send out the grades via the postal
card system thereby permitting
loads of time to de-bug the IBM

system.

Joe Duran Rolls

677 To Shatter

Intramural Kegling Loop Marks

Records were broken fast and
furiously in the Intramural Bowling
League this week with only one keg-
ler responsible for it all. Joe Du-
ran, little in stature but mighty
in State’s Bowling circles, came
up with an unbelieveable 677 trip-
Je including an almost perfect game.
Bowling as though he had no re-
gard for existing marks, the APA
anchorman sank existing SLS from
a top contender to practically an
also-ran, Joe started out with a
188 opener and finished a “fair”
day with a 210. It was the middle
game that gave Duran his chance
to put nis name at the top of all
bowling lists, Joe came up with a
279 game. He started his big game
with four straight strikes, In the
fifth frame, the five pin failed to
carry and the wavering pin had to
be taken care of via the spare me-
thod. Hitting the pocket as con-
sistently as though it were a kid’s
game, he added 7 more strikes,

The seasonal alley record at Rice’s
was tled with his high single, beat-
ing out all men’s league marks, Be-
sides this, Duran made a farce of
Joe Swicrzowski’s previously high
games of 225 and a 574 triple. He
has thus assured himself of getting
at least one of the trophies. In per-
sonal averages, Joe added 7 more
points to his and easily climbed to
the top of the loop with a 172 aver-
age.

In team records, Joe received good
backing from all his teammates with
scores ranging from 469-490. They
thus broke thelr own records as

Fencing Class
Meets Tuesday
In Milne Gym

By PAUL GORMAN

Experienced fencers are needed
for a meeting at the Milne Gym
on the night of the 22nd. At that
time, plans for an intramural fenc-
ing league will be discussed. If your
interest in fencing hasn't faded, and

if you still have a bit of the old
spring left, come on down to the
Milne Gym and put your ideas
across to the other fencers. The
meeting will start at 8:30 and will
last till about 9:30. For all of the
Would-be swordsmen, (and ladies)
there will be classes held in the
same place, the Milne Gym, at 8:30
p.m. on Wednesday nights. Be sure
to bring your sneakers and wear old
clothes,

Hallenbeck Rolls 514
In Sunday Night Loop

In the Mixed Bowling League last
Sunday Jean Hallenbeck came up
with a 514 triple on games of 170-
175-169. She thus became a member
of the Eleventh Frame First Club.
The Club consists of all women in
organized bowling leagues who have
hit 600 for the first time in their
careers. For her feat Jean will re-
celve a free dinner from Rice's
Bowling Alleys where the action
took place. Jean is very active in

bowling, being bowling manager for
the W.A.A.

The Mixed Bowling League has
Just pased its fifth week with Dick
Erbacher as its head. Other officers
include Mary Smith, Vice President,
and Gina Hilfiker as Secretary.

they came through with 779-961-
909—2649,

The SLS team, victims of the ex-
hibition, now have been virtually
eliminated from retaining their Al-
pha League crown. The staggering
frat men were led by Tom Shuman-
ski’s 510.

EEP Takes 4

Meanwhile EEP remained two
games back of the front runners by
winning a four point forfeit victory.
Bernie Theobold, one of the hottest
bowlers throughout the last few
weeks again came up with a good
score, hitting 157-190-182-528.

In the final match downstairs, KB
and Sayles split with Leo Legault’s
454 standing as the best perform-
ance of the match.

Rousers, Summit Victors

The Upstairs League, receiving the
vibrations of Duran’s pin smashing
blow, saw the Rousers and Summit
take four each from the Apaches
and Hilltop respectively with Van-
derzee bowing 3-1 to Sayles.

The Rouser-Apache match saw
Ron Vernoy come up with a 443
triple to beat the Apaches Pollto
by 6 pins.

Frank Swirskey again paced Hill-
top though his efforts went in vain.
Simonds led Summit by splitting the
maples at a 416 clip, one less than
Swirskey.

I. M. Track Planned

A new movement is getting un-
derway to start Intramural track
at State College. The idea was first
brought up at one of the Fresh-
man class meetings and was taken
from there to M.A.A, It has been
felt that if some good Intramural
track teams were formed, and
enouzh mterest was shown, track
might develop into a varsity sport
in a few years.

Ponies, Finks, Post Hoop Victories
To Maintain Undefeated Records

This week's Intramural
ball activity was somewhat limited
due to a rash of forfeits and the
intervention of the Factulty Con-
cert. Two exciting overtime wins
were recorded, however, by Sayles
and the Finks.

Sayles topped EEP by one point,
50-49, in the tough Albany League.
Carl Maxson, this week's Sports
Spotlight runnerup, tossed in exact-
ly half of his team’s total to pace
Sayles. The bulk of EEP's scoring
was done by Coan, Taggert, and
Kelly, who had 12, 12, and 10 points
respectively.

their undefeated skein alive by
downing Thurlow, 48-42. Hoppey led
the galloping Pontes with 15 points,
tullowed by Owens with 12, Bob
Backer hooped 15 to lead the Thur-
low offense.

The third game played in the Al-
bany League was a rather unusual
one. EEP, playing with only four
mich, managed to squeeze out a 52-
48 win over the fully manned Lem-
ons, O'Loughlin was the high scor-
er for the undermanned EEP squad
with 18 points. The Lemons, who
allowed nume scoring oppor
tunities to squirt away from them,
were led by Schultes, who also
swished in 18 points,

Finks Capture League Lead

In one of the crucial contests of
the ‘Teachers League, the undefeat-
cad Summit House team met the wn-
defvated Finks squad. Both clubs,
fihting furfously, ended up in a
34-ull tle at the end of the regula-
iim four quarters, In the five min-

uvertinne period, the Finks pull-

away to a 44-37 victory. The
coring for the Finks was mostly
done by Baker, Schatzle, and Kreh-
rink who scored 12, 12, and 11
apices. However, Ira Goldstein of
the lusers was the high man in the
contest, scoring 21 points, in addi-
tot tu doing some fine rebounding.

The other games in the Albany

wins OV the Flyers and Pub

Basketball is a game for the big men, so they say, but you would
have a hard time trying to convince the State cagers of this belief
throughout the last week. Gerry McDonald stands 5 foot 10 inches
tall, big by no measure in basketball circles. Nevertheless, McDonald.
is a “big” man in the eyes of local hoopsters, having hooped in 28 points
for the second game in a row against New Haven last Saturday. Both.

State Grapplers
Defeat Darrow
Academy 36-5

The Wrestling Team evened its
record al one win and one loss last
week with a sparkling showing
against Darrow Academy. State took
all the matches except one, and ma-

aged to end up with a decisive
36 to 5 score over the visiting team,

Five State men pinned their op-
ponents during the match, They
were Wayne Harvey, 123 pound
class; Bob Bosomworth, 157 pound
class; Bob Dreher, 167 pound class;
Dave Goldberg, 177 pound class, and
Bill Gropp in the heavyweight divi-
sion. Lee Negus won by default
over his opponent in the 147 pound
class, and Bindrim decisioned his
man at 121 pounds,

State traveled to Darrow last
night for a rematch, and will also
see action Saturday as they play
host to R.PI.

| Sport Spotlight |

After watching Joe Duran’s bowl-
ing exhibition Wednesday afternoon,
there is little question as to who
should occupy the position in Sports
Spotlight of the week in this edition.
Joe broke all kinds of records on
the alleys as he came through with
a brilliant 677 triple and a high 279
singte. Both his triple and single
gamie scores surpass the high marks
here at State this year and in past
years. His high single also tied this
year’s record at Rice's Bowling
Alleys.

Helps APA Take Four

With this brilliant display of alley
know how, he was able to lead his
team to games of 779, 961 and 909
scores, and a grand total of 2649
pins, another record here at State.
‘The APA men thus took four points
from the SLS keglers and managed
to retain their two game lead in
the Alpha League.

Runner-up—Carl Maxson
‘This week's runner-up for Sport-
light honors {s freshman Carl Max-
son, high scoring forward for the
Sayles hoop squad. Carl scored 25
points to lead his team to a one
point overtime victory over EEP,

his efforts were two points shy
of the all-time Page Hall mark
for a local cageer. Bill Hiram Wal-
ker set the mark in the 51-52 sea~
son against Plattsburg and last
year’s hoop fans had the opportunt~’
ty to cheer John Centra .as he tied
the mark with 30 tallies against
Utica.

Having played Plattsburg STC
last night, the teachers remain at
home when they take on Pratt In-
stitute tomorrow. The game Is sche-
duled to get underway immediate-
ly after the 7:00 preliminary. Last
year the Pratt hoopsters bowed to
Coach Merlin Hathaway's men by
the score of 89-86, (The score for
yesterday’s game could not be in-
cluded in this issue because of the
Wednesday night deadline.)

McDonald was not alone in his
Saturday night performance as &
late drive was’ sparked by Jack Ml-
non, Don Mayer and co-captain
Nels La Roe, The final score (92-84)
was cut very much from the 20
point deficit the Purple and Gold
cagers were up against a little ear-
ler.

New Haven Leads At Half

‘The first half was quite a battle
as the lead switched teams several
times, The scoreboard at the half
finally read 44-40 in favor of New
Haven. It was State's tenth loss
against two wins.

JV's Lose 89-79

‘The Junior Varsity squad mean-
while came through on the short
end in their battle against the New
Haven Juniors, Sandy Bernstein

‘'s Roving Reporter

By DAVID KENDIG

‘The existing varied troubles of
Student Union Board can be traced
fundamentally to two problems. The
first is the extraordinarily bad con-
stitution, and set of rules’ under
which they operate. The second is
the organization and attitudes of
the present 15 members of the
Board, who seem to be afraid to
execute in any direct way their re-
sponsibilities,

The set of rules that are in effect
now, governing the use of the Stu-
dent Union are seldom, if ever, en-
forced. It is extremely unlikely that
they could be, not only because of
their ambiguity, but because no-
where in their constitution do they
provide for any sort of enforcement
regulations. Likewise, their consti-
tution evades an issue that sooner
or later must be answered. What
comprises the Student Union, and
who is in charge of it?

‘The members of the Board, a self-
perpetuating group, seem to feel
generally that they are on the Board
for the glory, rather than for the
work involved. In enforcing one of
their rules, a series of letters-to-the-
offenders has been proposed, rather

than the method of simply issuing
warnings, in part, to alleviate caus-
ing their “friends” embarrassment.

These two main difficulties were
present at the last meeting of the
Board on Sunday night. Dealing
with the problem of “amorous mani-
festations,” a great deal of time was
spent in what can’ be at best de-
scribed only as a burlesque discus-
sion. Their solution to the problem
as a sort of hazy idea, whereby
these “letters” would be sent out
to violators of the rule, which is in
turn equally hazy. It was specified
that this ruling was. not to go into
the constitution, but only into the
minutes of the meeting.

If they can solve their question of
authority, revise their rules, state
their powers, realize that 15 people
cannot police the Union, the sort
of predicament they are in now
could easily be alleviated. It would
seem wiser for them to start send-
ing warnings to their own members,
clarifying their duties and jurisdic-
tion, before they start sending let-
ters to the rest of us, for violating
rules, the existence of which are not
even known.

IVs approximately 1 p.m. Sunday

Th» four Security Councils of the
frats on campus meet separately
un’sr hushed, clandestine circum-
sti aces to cast the final dies, at
these, the final bid sessions. ‘The
presidents enter solemnly with their
entourage, and the lists of inno-
cent freshmen come to the fore to
be used and abused one last time,

Bitter invectives, gratifying pra
es, opposing opinions cling in the
tense atmosphere of the assembled
brothers, A name suddenly becomes
a personalty, a hope.

The vicious weapon of “blackball-
ing” enters periodically, and a name
is blurred, fizales and dies. The pro-

cess is continuous, at times inac-
curate, and when it’s all over many

suffered because of the enmity of
a few.

Tho afternoun interludes continue
on in majectic fashion, Minutes
creep on into hours, and the broth-
ers keep an ever-mounting list of
‘accepted persons” in their minds,
But still there is uncertanty, be-
cause everyone knows the weakness
of a frosh’s heart: the he-can-be-
persuaded feeling prevails, Then,

“He was President of his class in
