Tempus Fugit . . .

Time is passing very quickly and few people
seem to have realized that plans have been com-
pleted for the annual Christmas Ball which will be
sponsored by Inter-Sorority and  Inter-Fraternity

Is, and that only two weeks remain after
iving vacation before the Ball.

Usually students begin to talk and think in ad-
yance about plans for a dance but in this case, there
seems to be little interest at the present moment.
Those members of the student body who are fa-
miliar with the details involved in planning the
dance realize the problems that were confronted
but which should be brought before the attention
ofall.

First of all, the dance was planned on a much
smaller scale than last year because of the financial
failure of the Claude Thornhill affair, The name-
band did not seem worth the money, the sororities
and fraternities went into debt, the Armory did
not seem to be the satisfactory place.

Therefore, the first decision that was made was
that we should secure a less expensive but good
small band with the idea also of decreasing the
price of the bids and making the dance available
to more students in the college,

‘Then came the stumbling block where could
the Ball be held and still accomodate the large
numbers expected to attend? Any person who has
tried to make arrangements for a large affair of this
type in Albany realizes the lack of available facil-
ites. “The committee tried the Colonie Country
Club but this was without success becuse of the
disapproval of the administration; they inyestigat
ed the downtown hotels but their ballroanis could
hot accommodate more than 150 couples; the Arm-
ory was again suggested but the idea quickly
dismissed beeause of the memory of ast year; our
own gymnasium was being used fora Milne bats:
Ketball game that night: there was one solution
the Aurania Club which could only be secured: for
Friday night

en this fact was against the wishes of the or
ganized group as very often students abject ta
dences on Friday nights. However, ie had te be
this way or notat all. ‘The price was down, the
orchestra was small, the dite was set and then the
capacity for the Club was set at $00 couples. This
Wats something else to spoil the plans but a situation
which could not be changed because of the size af
the Aurania Club.

Contrary to the rumors that have been circulat-
ing, the dance is open to anyone in the college
fraternity and) sorority. or not to the first $00
persons whe purchase their hids

Inter-Fraternity and Tnter-Sorority Councils
have made the plins fora formal, Some members
Ob the Association may not dike the way it wa
Planned. However, if these people wish something
different, next year is the time to rectify it, not
this year. Instead, support the Councils and yet

Attention: Aduanced Dramatics

By ARCHIE RIBER

Perhaps it is taking advantage of
the space allotted me as this week’s
reviewer to address my remarks
solely to the group responsible for
our dramatic presentations. How-
ever, I feel that after Tuesday's of-
fering, a great many people left
Page with a lot on their minds.
Some were not so polite. They aud-
ibly voiced their opinions on the
ultimate value of the evening just
spent.

This is not a new murmur of dis-
contentment. Numerous times since
the rebirth of AD nearly three
years ago, the faithful Tuesday
night Page-goers have found them-
selves turning away with a shrug
of dissatisfaction. Something was
wrong. The plays weren’t clicking.

It is conceeded from the outset
that it is far easier to sit behind a
NEWS typewriter and peck out
poison-pen reviews with the bound-
less ecstacy of a Charles Addam
cartoon character, than take a con-
structive part in the endless work
and aggravation involved in pro-
ducing any of the aforementioned
venture Yet the question nsist-
ently is worth it?” “Ai
the Tuesday-night productions
worth the time, the effort, the ag-
gravation and often the weak aud-
jence response they so often re-
ceive?”

Most of us realize that the pur-
pose of Advanced Dramatics on our
Campus is to give those people, so-
inclined, first-hand experience in
play production. The Tuesday night
presentations serve as a lab or

workshop and are intended to give
each student a turn at casting,
planning and directing, As planned,
the program is certainly commend-
able. In practice, I cannot help but
feel that it often falls short of its
intended goal.

On Tuesday night, as on many
such nights in the past, the fault
did not lie with the directors or
the casts of the respective plays.
Rather—the fault rested within the
plays themselves. The production
time and effort seemed wasted in
light of the overall result. I cannot
help but feel that a number of the
plays selected for presentation are
so restricted in scope that they lim-
it the potential achievements of
those who work so futilely on them,

It is hard to condense a play and
keep its continuity, It is hard to
find a one-act play that challenges
the ability of the Thespian and the

; imagination of the audience.

Perhaps if the time and effort de-
voted to these Tuesday night ven-
tures were spent in the production
of several student-curected major
three-act plays as sponsored by the
College Playhouse Group several
years ago, the ultimate value and
experience would be more beneficial
to evervone concerned,

As it now stands, Advanced Dra-
matics should stop and search its
soul. Perhaps from the throes of its
silent meditation we may again
come to receive offerings worthy of
the talents of its participants and
a respectable level of dramatic en-
tertainment

GET 'EM WHILE THEY'RE HOT

Have you noticed those little stars, “December
10,” plastered all over the walls? Those are the re-
minders that the Inter-Fraternity-Inter-Sorority Ball
is coming soon, and that you'd better pick your
women right away, fellows. It’s to be held at the
Aurania Club, up on Allen Street, near the intersec-
tion of Western and Madison.

Due to the limitations in size of the hall, only three
hundred tickets will be sold. They will NOT be held
in reserve for fraternity and sorority members only,
so, independents, don’t hesitate or worry about your
opportunity to get yours. It’s first come, first served,
and it should be one of the year's best social events.
Come along, and let’s all have a ball.

PLENTY OF ACTION

How much can one organization do? Inter-Group
Council is a bunch that shows just how much. It's
almost unbelieveable. They conduct seminars, which
now concern American folklore. With station WROW.
they present a weekly radio show. Right now, they're
carrying on a city-wide survey of the children’s
creational facilities. Last week's assembly was pre-
sented by them. They foster IGC’s in other colleges.
work in the Clinton Square Community Center, and
do a dozen other different things, as a real scrvice
organization

Joy Simon and her gang are doing a wonderful job
Our hat’s off to you!

HAVE YOU PAID UP?

In recent class of clections, there have been
some questions as to the eligibility of some of the vot-
ers. There is a difference between the number of peo-
ple who claim to have paid their dues and the num-
ber that the records show as having paid. The class
treasurer wants to avoid such messes in the future.
If there is any question as to your status, contact
Bill Dumbleton ‘50, immediately, so thay things can be
straightened out.

THIS Is IT

Monday morning the fraternities will issue their
bids to the fellows they hope to have enter their re-
spective organizations. They've been giving you the
big rush since September; now, boys, is the time for
you to make that big decision. And‘it is a big one.
The fellows you choose are going to be your close
friends Lill you get that old diploma

I've seen all too many fellows discover they've
made a mistake in deciding which outfit to join when
it's too late—when any tempts at rectifying the mis-
lake are bound to cause hard feelings. So consider
carefully—the organization as a whole, the fellows
individually and as a unit, Uheir activities and how
they jibe with yours. If you aren't sure and this ad-
vice will probably bring a string of cuss words down
on my head), wait, Return your bids unsigned. There
will be another chance for you next semester when
you and the frat men will know each other better
Then, you will be surer of just where you stand

Co-chairmen of the annual

nounced plans for the dance which
will be held Friday, December 10,
at the Aurania Clu

According to Miss Cook and Zel-
ler, although the Ball is sponsored
by Inter-Fraternity - Inter-Sorority
Council, all State College students
are cordially invited to attend and
dance from 9 p. m. until 1 a, m. to
the music of Fred Clute and his
orche: from Johnstown. Stu-
dents are urged to obtain bids as
carly as possible because the Aura-
nia Club has a capacity limit of
three hundred couples. Sorority
members will not be given prefer:
ence in the purchase of tickets. The
first people to ask for tickets will
be the ones who are able to pur.
chase them, Bids. priced at three
dollars, have been on sale since
yesterday at a desk outside the

Miss Cook and Zeller wish to ex-
plain, also, the choice of a place as
small as the Aurania Club and the
setting of the date for Friday. Last
year Inter Sorority
Council sponsored a large dance at
the Armory and hired a name band
for it. Due to costs and limited pur-

To the Editor:

A suggestion that would be help-
ful in the future is concerned with
the dispensation of admissions for
performances produced at Page
Hall. In order to facilitate the pro-
cedure and to give, in addition, ex-
tra services, the following is recom-
mended:

1, Secure a large board, prefer-
ably of plywood that would permit
the construction of a flap for each
seat in the house.

2. Construct a board for the or-
chestra seats as well as the bal-
cony.

3. By inserting a dummy ticket
in the slot, with the designated seat
to correspond with the actual tick.
et printed on the dummy, it will
be possible for superior service and
speed in selling the tickets, etc.

The advantages are as follow:

1, Permits visualization of the
seat the person has in mind or for
those who forget easily, permits a
chance to find their place.

2. Does away with makeshift
charts that are now employed

3, Reduces cost of construction.

4, Saves time of people who
must wait in line. Saves time for
those monitoring the disposal of
lickets.

5. Different colored dummy
tickets can be employed to handle
more than one presentation of a
show

6, Enables more activities to em-
ploy the reserved ticket seating ar-
rangement

7. Eliminates some tedious tasks
involved in’ returns.

Let's have more
suggestions.

Editor:

In the NEWS of
letter was published condemning
the mural in the cafeteria. The
caustic remarks about “that atroc-
ity" probably express popular opin-
ion. However, Miss Hutchins of
State's Art Department has asked
that I explain a few erron-
eous beliefs about the painting of
the mural. I have found, in disc
sions with people around colleg
that the mural is generally be-
lieved to be the work of State stu-
dents.

The project was originally begun
by Miss Grace Martin, head of the
Milne Art Department in 1946, and
Miss Doris Kaplan, the artist and
now a Senior at Milne. Believing
the cafeteria to be an extremely
drab and unpleasant laboratory-
like place in which to eat and re.
lax, Miss Kaplan and Miss Martin
went to considerable effort to get
permission for their re-decoration
project

When the painting of the mural
was started, it was intended that
the ca ja walls be used for tem-
porary ting art displays of the
advances classes at Milne, Thus,
the mural was not planned a

this is a common and constructiv
practice, Often entire corridors are
given over for such purposes. It
might be said that Milne art: stu-
dents have accomplished some fine
work with many their projects.

Departure Plan
For Assemblies

Campus Commission has an-
nounced the correct procedure for
Jeaving assembly and wishes to re-
mind students to leave suitcases in
the shower room, according to
Pearl Fless ‘49, Grand Marshal.

After the national anthem, the
entire student body will be seated.
The Seniors will then leave, row by
row, with one half going out the
right aisle and the other half leav-
ing by the left aisle. The Juniors
will leave next, with one half go-
ing out the center aisle, the other
half using the side aisle. The Soph-
omores in the center section will
leave, row by row. with each half
going out the nearest aisle. How-
ever, the Sophomores in the side
section will move only to the right,
one row at a time, starting with
the last row. The usual order will
be followed by the freshmen, who
will leave after all the upper
classes,

No one will be permitted to leave
by the stage doors because of fire
rules. These doors are to be used
only in an emergency, No member
of Student Association may stand
up, when leaving, until the row in

‘k or in front of him has left,

Miss Pless also wishes to remind
students that if any suiteases are
found in the locker rooms, they will
be removed, She requests that all

anizations keep their
bulletin boards neat and orderly,

Milne Art Department temporarily
interrupted plans for adding inter-
est and color to the cafeteria walls.
However, Mr. Vincent Popolizio, a
graduate of the Yale School of Fine
Arts and new head of the depart-
ment, told me that he is anxious
to continue the project this year,
In talking with Mr. Popolizio, I
found that he was especially eager
that we commend Miss Kaplan for
her interest and effort. She began
the work with very little guidance
and practically tackled the job
alone.

According to the basic principles
of mural painting, the pigment—
either oi] or tempera—is applied to
a dry plaster . In this case, the
oil pigment was painted over. oil
and as a result the mural has be-
gun to chip and crack, Removing
the painting with a scraper will
present some mechanical difficul.
Ues and it will probably be nec
sary to replaster the wall in orde
to have a good working surface for
a new mural

Miss Kaplan has a very individ-
ual style of painting that does not
lend itself readily to mural work.
But the technique shows much
promise for easel painting. State
owes Miss Kaplan a vote of thnaks
for initiating the project, and if
the mural is removed, another must
certainly replace it or her efforts
will have been futile

For ‘Fairy-Godmother’ Role

“Variety,” the National Period-

“The Fairy Godmother has
been waving her magic wand
Saturday mornings and bring-
ing out tales of fantasy, poems,
and musical greetings for her
very youthful listeners — from
four to nine. This Albany girl
spins stories with a certain skill
and perception, She is the pos-
sessor of a soft, gentle voice—
into which, by a litle twist, she
puts more sex appeal than most
area femme broadcasters, It’s in
a minor mood but is listenable
for her moppet audience — and
sometimes an adult dialer might
yearn to escape the Berlin crisis
and the atom bomb into their
dream world.”

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1948

Communications

To the Editor:

Last week an article appeared in
the NEWS, summing up the good
and bad points of the past Intra-
mural Football season. The article
was written by a member of the
NEWS staff who was an active par-
ticipant in the league as a player,
referee, and one of the five team
representatives consistently present
at meetings. For this reason, it de-
serves attention. As manager of the
league I would like to air a few of
my views on the topic, for what
they are worth:

1. The most important factor is
the choice of a league manager. I
don’t feel that I was completely
aware of the responsibilities in-
yolved and I hope to orient our
manager elect on some of the pit-
falls involved.

2. Next in line of responsibility
are the team captains, Except for
the first meeting, attendance never
reached 100%. Most of the time I
had to be satisfied with six or seven
of the thirteen possible. This makes
all administration ineffective.

3. The freshmen need an orien-
tation on football as well as how to
ask for a date, Because of ignor-
ance, many signed to play, and la.
ter had to quit for various reasons,
Others did not sign up, were not
organized, and just didn’t play, al-
though they wished to.

4. The refereeing, as a rule,
smelled. I know, because I was a
referee. So far, no practical solu-
tion to this problem has been of-
fered, but I welcome all ideas on
the subject.

Basically, I think these are the
four problems which tend to dis-
rupt the Intramural Football pro-
gram,

T now turn to the one suggestion
by Mr, Milk with which I violently
disagree. He suggests that the Frat-
ernity teams be put in one league,
because, “it has been a common fact
that more of a rivalry exists be-
tween the frats,”

The teams for each league were
chosen by the “long straw" method
this year because I felt: 1. Any at-
tempt to classify the better teams
in one league, if successful, would
defeat the purpose of a play-off
game, 2. Leaving the selection of
leagues to one person opens him to
charges of fixing or “stacking” the
leagues.

If what Mr. Milk says about ri.
valry is true, then putting all the
frat teams in one league would
concentrate the interest on one
league to the detriment of the oth-
er—if it were true, As far as I can
see, putting SLS and KB in the “A”
league would only have increased
rivalry so far as KB was a good
footbali team which might be able
to topple EEP. Within the “A"
league, I believe there was more
rivalry in the EEP-Angel game

than In the perennial feud with s

KDR, simply because of the caliber
of the teams involved. As a final
word, may I say that no place in
the aims of intramural sports is
there a sentence or a word which
indicates that development of fra-
ternal rivalry is a goal to be con-
sidered.

My thanks to the fellows who
were so helpful the past season.
Over 100 fellows played ball—and

suce!

Intramural bowling was resumed
again this fall with the first games
being rolled on the Rice alleys Wed-
nesday afternoon, This week's
games saw many teams jump to an
early lead.

Potter Subdues Gents

Potter Club took three games
from the Gents. Charlie Hubbard's
163 single and Bob Reno's 467 triple
paved the way for Potter's triple
victory. Doug Thorne’s 148 was high
single while DeLucca’s 389 was high
triple for the Gents. Potter showed
a great deal of bowling power by
overcoming the Gents by a very wide
margin.

Van Derzee Takes Three

Van Derzee defeated the Fools in
three straight games. Ray Rapacz
took both high single and high tri-

ple honors with 190 and 521. Ben-

nett was high in both departments
for the Fools with 170 and 473. Van
Derzee jumped to an early lead in
the first game and was never head-
ed in their clean sweep of three
games,
KDR Downs KB

Kappa Delta Rho led by Morris’
156 single and 443 triple took three
from Kappa Beta. Gornbein had
the high single and triple for KB
with 144 and 400 respectively. The
last game was very close with KB
losing out by 26 pins. The first and
nd games were KDR's safely, as
swept them with large margins,
ers Whitewash Faculty
rong Beaver team took three

games from the Faculty team. The

for the season thus far. Although

LS was led by Mon-

and a 401 triple

The Faculty originally intended
to field two teams but one team
withdrew from league competition.

Therefore one team will draw one
bye a week,

Next week's schedule is as follows:

Begin Activities

Volleyball started off Wednesday
with four games; two openers were
from the “A” league, the fraternity
teams, and the two games following
from “B” league, consisting of in-
dependent teams. Ten teams have
So far signed up to take part in the
tournament.

SLS started out fast taking the
first game from KDR by a close
score of 16-14. KDR reversed the
order, however, in the following two
games, to win them both with a
rather decided edge of 15-9 and 15-
7, giving them the necessary two out
of three games.

Potter Club was a winner when
KB failed to present a full team,
making a forfeit necessary.

VDZ Swamps Angels

Van Derzee took two straight
from the Angels by a wide margin.
The scores of the games were: 15-2
and 15-3, respectively. Both teams
were short a man for the first
game.

Burts and the Mitey Mites volley-
ed for a long time before the serve
was decided. A close game followed:
first one team  scorii and then
the other. Finally Burt's team pull-
ed ahead to win 15-11. The second
followed with more of the same
kind of playing. In this game the
Mitey Mites went ahead from time
to time; however, they were unable
to hold their lead and Burt's team
came forward to win 16-14

Football Playoffs
Slated For Today

This afternoon Potter Club, win-
ner of the “A" League champion-
ship, will tackle KB, winner in the
“B" League. Tomorrow the Sophs
will tangle with the frosh in the
annual Rivalry game.

After long delays the play-off
game will finally come, at 4 p. m
this afternoon. The two undefeated
teams will meet to decide the cham-
pionship of the 1948 Intramural
football season. From all indications
ef the past season, it looks like KB
will be passing with Sy Fersh, while
Potier will be running with Carter,
Warden and Lansky. It should shape
up to be a fine game with neither
team holding any decisive edge. Be-
siles refending its title, Potter will
also try to keep their unscored up-
on record clean,
