is to take place on the level of con-
s.ructive criticism,
Council voted to suspend discus-
sion cn the proposed Student Facili-
ties Board budget until such time
as the status of the Board and its
relation to SA can be more defin-
itely established, its policies invest-
igated, and Student Union Board’s
role in the fund determined. The
motion was passed by unanimous
vote since it was felt that SA is
unsure of the Board's established
purpose, control, and policy.
The Christmas Sing for the as-
sembiy has been scheduled for De-
cember 12, while the Athletic
Board's report on football has been
tentatively set for the same date
The Rivalry Sing, formerly post-
poned, has been set for February 27.
One Man's Opinion
Last Tuesday evening the Advanc-
ed Dramatics class presented its
iourth set of plays.
The first play, a college satire,
was directed by Richard Jacobson,
and at this time we would like to
congratulate the director on his
fresh choice of cast. It is with great
rride and pleasure that we welcome
Harry Mills back to the State Col-
lege stage, and we hope to see more
of his talents. Newcomers Jim Con-
way, Dick Woods, Owen Smith and
Stu Macnofsky might possibly have
done better with a better script or
more adequate directing. In our
opinion the whole production was
mediocre—mediocre in sets, acting
and script, with some highlights as
sound-effects,
Considering the type of the sec-
ond play and the usual reception
of such by State College audiences,
we can say that Miss Wiles deserves
credit for a production that grad-
ually tcok hold of the audience and
had them well in hand by the end
of the play. The technical aspects
were largely responsible for this.
Miss Hopkins did an outstanding
job with some tendencies toward
overacting her role. Miss Ciliberti,
although on stage a short time,
added life to the heavy surround-
ings. We should like to acknowledge
Mr. Tubliner’s role and hope that
he will appear again on our stage.
Mr. Orser’s performance was pale
despite his well-assumed haughti-
ness, The ending left us with the
feeling that plays such as this do
have a place at State College.

sible to complete pre-registration in
the time specified, those concerned
are requested to see Miss Lape.
Any person planning to start
graduate work next semester, is re-

Co-op Spark
Christmas List
Is your Christmas list list-
less? Does it sag in the wrong
places? Then what you need is
a little Co-op-eration.
Downstairs at the State Col-
lege Co-op you can find the
necessary gift items for every-
one on that bit of paper you've
been trying to hide from all
those prying eyes. For Mom
there arz Informative magazines
that no mother would consider
being without, such as “Hunting
and Fishing,” and “Baseball Di-
gest.” Anyone’s father would be
glad to have one of those stuffed
dogs to call his own, The com-
pacts availabl> would certainly
come in handy on little brother's
next date, waen he wants to
make sure his face is on right.
Do you have a special some-
one overs:as, girls? The Co-op
has packages of Hershey bars
conveniently boxed for mailing
“over there.” And, if you want
him to come back safe, be sure
to snd a box of “life-savers.”

Athletic Report
The major portion of the Student
Counc] meeting Wednesday night
was devoted to a hearing of the
Athletic Board's report on athlet-
fe policy and football which will be
presented in Assembly today, and
to reports from a committee in-
vestigating the Student Faculty As
sociation and Student Faciliti
Board, Today in assembly Music
Council will present {ts annual
Christmas program under the di-
rection of Carl A. Peterson, Instruct~
or in Music. If time permits, the
Good of the Organization meeting
will be continued
Discussion following the reading
of the AA Board's report centered
mainly about what is being done or
can be done in the way of elimin-
ating obstacles to the’ introducing
of football at State which the Board
feels to exist,
While no vote was taken, the
consensus of opinion following the
reports on the agencies under the
Student-Faculty Assoclation of
which SA Is a part appeared to be
that while these agencies do make
profits, they do so as a result of
good business practices and buying
methods, rather Uhan at the expense
of SA, and that they must make
some margin of profit in order to
remain solvent, Little headway was
made in the matter of Student Pa-
cilities Board. However, it Is hoped
that the investigation into the
Bourd’s policies and control will be
completed by the next Council meet~
ing.
Arrangements are being made for
chartering a bus to take students
to the New Paltz game Saturday. If
arrangements are completed, a sign-
up sheet will be posted on the Stu-
dent Council bulletin board today

Group’s Return
To Page Stage
The General Platoff Don Cossack
Chorus and Dancers, under the di-
rection of N. Kostrukoff, will ap-
pear at Page Hall Monday night
8:30 p. m,, under the sponsorship
‘of Music Council.
During the thirteen year history
of the Chorus it has performed
over 5,575 concerts, Many of these
concerts have been of a religious
nature, while others have been for
the U. S. O., both in the United
States and in the Far East.
Make Second Appearance
The Don Cossacks last appearance
at State College was in 1947.
The reception which they received
here prompted one of the members
to say that the Chorus preferred
college audiences to any other type
of audience.
Cossacks Visit Various Countries
The leather-booted entertainers
have visited sixty-five different
countries during their tours and
have given concerts in such famous
places as the Cathedral of Notre
Dame in Paris and Carnegie Hall in
New York, The chorus has seen the
Eiffle Tower the Parliament Build-
ing in Lordon, the Pyramids of
Egypt aud the holy places of Jeru-
salem, Wild beasts of South Africa,
earthquikes in Chill, and revolu-
tions in Brazil are no strangers to
the Cossacks
But the Don Cossacks are not just
adventurers, they are highly skilled
entertainers, The New York Times
has said that the Chorus “still
stands among the best choral groups
now to be heard in our concert
halls."” The Boston Post has said,
“When they stamp onto the stage
in perfect formation with their, mil-
itary bearing and bright uniforms
you get your first impulse to cheer
and your second one when they be-
gin to sing.”

Common-Staier
By J. KORBA & R. HUGHES
They never taste who always drink;
They always talk who never think.
—Prior
Last week's “Good of the Organization Assembly
almost lost us our organization, The “Free Friday”
advocates almost successfully deranged our whole Stu-
dent Governmental System by pressing theri selfish
cause. These individuals would put the horse before
the cart and try to go in two directions at once, for
purely self-centered reasons. These people, completely
ignorant of the workings of our presesnt govern-
ment, failed to realize that the compulsory assembly
system is one of the basic foundations upon which
our present system was founded. To eliminate com~-
pulsory assemblies would be to destroy our present
Student Government,
The right way to approach this controversy would
be to revise our government in such a way as to
write off compusory assemblies as an integral part
of our government. If we tried to do this backwards,
chaos would be the only result. We suggest that the
“Free Friday” Party and its leaders get in contact
with the people who presented government plans to
Myskania this week. ;
We are thankful that the amendment to the orig-
inal motion was defeated last week; and if such a
proposal ever comes up again it should be re-defeated,
As far as the original motion goes, we would be in
favor of a proposal to make only business assemblies
cmpulsory, that is, if such a system could be worked
out in detail, with all questions and doubts taken
care of.
“What we see depends mainly on what
we look for.” —Lubbock
Today in assembly we are to hear a report from
an investigation committee concerning the ever pres-
ent and ever debated subject of football at State Col-
lege. This data, as we understand it, is a result of
much research and planning and has been reviewed
by the administration with their criticism and sug-
gestions.
We feel that we are no more ready for football to-
day than we were a year ago. And we predict that
if football is incorporated into our athletic system
now, it would be unsuccessful. It would fail because
of inadequate facilities—it would fail because it could
not be handled by our present coaching staff, and it
would fail because we do not think that it would
have the whole hearted backing of the administration
if initiated at the present time.
We would be in favor of football in future years—
and the planning which is taking place now is a
good step in that direction. Football, when we have
a field house, a place to play and train, and other
neces:ary facilities, would be an asset to our athletic
system—but this will take more than a year of
planning.
“To give pleasure to a single heart by a single kind
act is better than a thousand head-bowings in prayer.”
You can help paint a smile on the boys’ and girls’
faces at the Albany Home by dropping your gift in the
class boxes now.

The Christunas Spirit
By NANCY EVANS
In searching through back copies
of the News for inspiration concern-
ing this column, I discovered that
past writers have gone into deep
and scholarly presentations of cur-
rent problems found “around cam-
pus,” panegyrics of their home towns
and criticisms of conditions need-
ing discussion or reform. However,
having neither a deep nor schol-
arly mind, and having no com-
plaints of interest, I shall try a
new angle, appropriate to the sea-
son. Being just one week before
Christmas vacation, it is none too
soon to examine this vague some-
thing to which we glibly refer as
“Christmas spirit.”
Cynics claim that this spirit is a
sort of mass hypnotism inflicted
upon the general public for a month
r so each year by merchants and
advertising agencies, with the aid
of gaudy lights and age-old, rather
sentimental songs. Pseudo-sophisti-
cates may think the season one for
humans from one to twelve years
of age exclusively, wh se thoughts
cent elfishly about the kindly old
man in red flannels bringing myri-
ads of shining toys down the chim-
ney on the magical evening of De-
cember 24, Misers may resent it,
the morose deplore it, but for those
of us who believe in this spirit, and
in this season, no amount of argu-
ment can squelch our joy in the
return of Christmas.
Although the very name of Cihrist-
mas has definite religious connec-
tions, the spirit of the season is not
limited to any one group. The very
bright lights, gay colors and lilt-
ing music which provide a back-
ground for this season add to the
infectiousness of the spirit, so that
no one can be completely unaware
of the attitude surrounding him.
The joy, love, and deliciousness of
secrecy are contagious; open-hand-
ed and open-hearted generosity can-
not be ignored.
Christmas, while a time for shar-
ing, is also intensely personal as
few other occasions are, The pun-
gent tang of evergreen, an old and
dearly familiar ornament on a dec-
oration tree, a best-loved carol, may
symbolize the spirit for one per-
son; for me, the burning of a tall,
thick candle brings thoughts of two
very small girls—my sister and I—
waiting patiently by the window,
waiting for the Christ Child to come
softly through the snow looking for
the candle we had set outside for
Him,
This is the time of year when we,
individually and in groups, reaffirm
our belief in humanity and in the
essential beauty of what some call
faith, when we can see through the
chaos and struggle of the everyday
to the possibility of eventual unity
of purpose. It is a time forgaity and
laughter, for sincerity and an aware~
ness of the things that are dearest
to us. So for the next few weeks,
colored lights will shine through
windews, Mama will be kissing
Santa Claus, people will stagger
about stores and crowded streets,
overloaded with packages; for a
while, we will love each other a lit-
tle more, understand each other a
little better, smile more often with
greater warmth. And to prove that
it is possible, for a time there will
actually be “Peace on earth, good
will among men.”
Communications
To the Editor:
I'm writing this leter for two rea-
sons. First, this is the only way
have of thanking an exceptionally
honest Statesman. And second, I
would like to comment on the fact
that honesty is much more preval-
ant at State than might be indicated
from the many stories we hear about
stolen good, ete. It seems to me that
people who are unfortunate enough
to have things stolen, or lost arti-
cles not returned, are more apt to
let others know about it than those
of us who are more fortunate.
1 lost a wallet, containing $23.
and it was returned to the Dean's
office with all the money in it
When I mentioned this in one of
my cla another student said
that a wallet he lost, with $40, was
also returned to him.
I wonder how many such cases
there are that receive no publicity
as opposed to the stories about stol-
en goods that wed o hear about?
At any rate, I would very much
like to meet the individual whose
honesty will enable me to have a
much merrier Christmas than would
otherwise be possible.
Very Sincerely,
Beatrice M, Chalmers
To the Editor;
It may sound trite but after sit-
ting in last week's assembly, T
think that some State students
should remember who they are and
what they represent. We as a stu-
dnt body are allowed to vote on
matters pertaining to the govern-
ing of the college. It is not only
rude, immature, uncouth, and a
sign of ignorance to boo and or hiss
when other students vote contrary
to the way that you haye but—a
violation of your fellow students’
right to freely express their opin-
ion,
It wouldn't take much effort to
eradicate this situation and show
maturity, as college students, at the
same time.
Sincerely,
Phyllis Penny ‘53

letic Board has conducted a furth-
cr investigation into and examina-
tion of athletic poliey at State and
the possibility of football as an
inter-collegiate sport. ‘The Board's
report will be presented in Assem-
bly today, Following are the pro-
posalsy. which the board makes as

Dr. Collins hus accepted this re-

sible for him to do so, ‘The carliest
time that this may be done is Sep-
tember 1953. Tt will not be clear
whether or not this ean be done

probably in '55. However, it is pos-
sible that, in the absence of build-
ing funds, facilities may be rented
provided for athletes with guidanceon a year to year basis.
That Question Again
The twice delayed answer to the question of wheth-
er or not State College should take on football as an
inter-collegiate sport will come to life again today in
assembly with the presentation of State College Ath-
letic Board's report on the subject and on athletic
policy in general. Four years ago SA answered that
question in the negative. Last year a motion was
introduced to empower Athletic Association to tax
undergraduates up to $10 and graduates up to $5 for
the purpose of initiating an r-collegiate football
pragram, and a Football Investigation Committee
was set up to study the possibilities of introducing
the sport this year. Last March that committee re-
ported—a report which the News felt was too hasti-
ly prepared and which overlooked many of the major
difficulties relating to such a change in the athletic
program.
Student Association was never called upon to vote
on this motion, for the Athletic Board, after consult-
ation with the Administration, requested, in its stead,
an advisory vote from SA resolving (1) that SA be-
lieved inter-collegiate football feasible at the Col-
lege; (2) that it express willingness to support such
@ program through an addition of not to exceed ten
dollars to the student tax; and (3) that it encourage
the Board in the development of inter-collegiate
athletic policy, including football, for report no later
than December, 1952. SA passed this resolution by a
large majority. The report which you will hear to-
day is therefore, a result of the third portion of this
resolution.
stage this time.
Unlike the last report, we feel that this one repre-
sents thorough and careful investigation and plan-
ning of a long-ranged nature. We compliment the
Board on the completion of its work and on the re-
altistic manner in which it has accepted the obstac-
Jes which it faces in any expansion of the inter-col-
legiate program.
Thirty Pints...
From amidst the humming of College industries
comes the voice of an organization which asks littl:
of your time, none of your money—only your blood
We reter, of course, to the College Unit of the Amer-
ican Red Cross, which incidentally, has done a mar-
yelous job of revitaliizng itself and its activities this
r, The College Unit will sponsor the second of its
dr for blood this Tuesday at Bender Lab, trar
portation once more being provided. The first drive
fell only two pints short of the thirty-pint quota
however, we hope that by now the guinea pigs have
reported favorably on their experience and that there
are now many more than thirty people in the colle:
who realize that they'll never miss a pint of blood,
but that someone else might just miss without it
Stampede For What?
Because we feel that SA is lacking in information
concerning progress in the investigation of the 1
vision of student government, page four of this paper
carries summaries of the four proposals for revision
with which Myskania will deal in. studying possible
governmental set-ups. We complment the authors of
these plans on the time and thought which they =aw
fit to devote to a matter which we feel to be of vital
concern to many more than the 18 people who have
attended both Myskania forums. Tt will be noted that
not a single plan calls for compulsory assemblics
that every plan calls for representative government
of some type. These tacts, coupled with the speed
with which the Good of the Organization meetiny
last week was taken over by the question of compul-
sory assemblies, leads us to believe that forced as-
sembly attendance is the major factor fostering dis-
content with our present system
The proposal to delineate between social gatherinu:
and business meetings has its merits. Certainly those
who wish to lend their time only to matters concern
ing the business of carrying on the government are
justified in complaining about many inclusions in
our agenda. However, we feel that until the agendas
themselves are planned with this division in- mind
the plan would have litte effect on this year's a
sembly meetings. Let us point out also, that anvone
objecting to the nature of any portion of the assent
bly agenda always has the perrogative of challengine
agenda when it is read at the beginning of the
meeting.
We were happy to see the more inclusive amend
ment defeated since we cannat endorse turning te
legislature loose on the spur of the moment with the
question of more thorough and thoughtful revisio:
coming up so shortly, We do not doubt that, if given
a long enough trial, non-compulsory assemblies vc uld
eventually serve as well us the present compulsot
gatherings, but let's think a little farther than 1)
hour we ure forced to devote to our government ever

Proposals---
IY. Insurance Protection
The Athletic Bourd bas recommended that insur
ance protection for athletes be provided to a mint
mum of $10,000 of co. erage. Under the present insur
anee organiation at the college this ts not Linwucnel

provides itself with a baste total insurance plan for
each of its members us it has been done in 7 ot the
IH Teachers Colleges ut presents, it will become
Hanelally possible for the Athletic Board to purchit-t
surplus insurance for the athletes to the extent need
ed for adequate coverage. ‘Thus the Athlete Board
recommends to the Student Association that a com

Tuesday evening's A.D. produc-
tions opened with an Irish drama
directed by Margaret Eckert. It is
regrettable that the play could not
live up to the standards established
by the poetic prologue, which was
presented by Pat Byrne with under-
tanding and dramatic impact. The
play itself, when it could be heard,
lacked vitality and dramatic pre-
ception of moving toward some goal
or purpose. Many lines were given
as mere memorizations, lacking in
meaning and conviction; often the
meaning of lines was sacrificed at
the expense of accents. Nevertheless,
despite the overall inadequacy, cer-
tain performances stood out. De-
lores Donnelly and Bill Hawkins
presented characterizations which
were dramatically convincing and
realistically conceived,
The Fantasy, directed by Marcia
Griff, was a welcome change in
standards; the director certainly
deserves much praise for a “Job
well done.” John Laing's Colonel
was a masterpiece in old age com-
dowith a ering mind, Bar-
ta.a, played by Marilyn Erter, gave
imuvh vitality to the play; the con-
vinsingness of her change in char-
acer deserves recognition. The sym-
pathetic and understanding Ellen,
iously rendered by Anneliese
Hartnazel, spoke with a voice which
proved most enjoyable and added
much to her characterization.

convincing, left much to be desired.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1952
As ABCA It
By ABEL BLATTMAN
Today the Athletic Association
will culminate a year of intelligent
research when it presents its report
on the feasibility of Inter-collegiate
football at State College. This re-
port has been in the form of a rec-
ommendation to the administration,
and will be accompanied by either
the stamp of approval or disap-
proval.
That a decision of this nature
should rest with the administration,
namely Dr. Evan R. Collins, is both
fitting and proper, and we are sure
that it will be arrived at only after
very careful consideration.
We feel that our student body is
the equivalent of other such groups
in this country. Our intellect, as a
group, is not that much higher,
that anyone can say we are not a
normal college group. The school
spirit in this institution is not en-
tirely lacking, it is merely at a
stage of development. To say that
it can never be developed better is
to say that we are not a normal
collegiate group, and that we feel
that such a viewpoint is ridiculous,
We honestly feel that should Dr.
Collins veto football at State it
would not be on these grounds.
There are ample grounds for a tem
por delay of building an Inter-
Collegiate football squad at State.
The coaching staff would have to be
nented somewhat, especially in
view of the fact that at present it
is operat’ng at a virtually full load.
This would have to be done through
the great god State, and hence
would take time. A workable insur-
ance set-up would have to be form-
ed, since our Varsity athletics are
not covered through a school policy.
Should the decision b> based on
these two points, we would whoie-
heartedly agree with it. The prob-
lem then, as we see it, ould be to
iron out these details, a task which
certa nly would not be too difficult
for our administration and student
body to perform.

Peds Host To Harpur Tonight;

Seein'’ With Mehan
By DOTTIE MEHAN
The twelve teams signed up to
participate in the bowling competi-
tion met at Rice's yesterday for the
first competition, According to Pa-
tricia Theobald, one of the co-
managers of bowling, there was a
warm-up session last week. A new
handicap system in to be initiated
in State's bowling this year, The
individual members of a team will
esiablish an average for themselves
over a period of time and a team
handicap will be determined from
this. Pat hopes that this new sy
tem will “make bowling more com-
petitive’, As a co-manager with
Elaine Stryke: e is very enthu-
siastic about the degree of interest
shown at this time.
Only one volleyball game
rlayed this Tuesday, and that a
ho.dover from Saturday when there
wasn't enough time to finish the
scheduled slate. We'd like to say
that the officiating Tuesday was
commendable.
Next Tuesday, two teams unde-
feated in thelr respective leagues
will meet for a play-off game. A
real fast team from Brubacher A
will face a comparable team of
Phi Delt girls. We'll go ‘way out on
a limb, and predict a victory for
Brubacher on the basis of their
consistantly good playing.

Il To Wrestle
Coach Joe Garcia has issued
a call for more men to come
out for the Wrestling Club. So
far only eleven men have been
attending the practices which
are held nightly in the Milne
gym.
Mr. Garcia's squad is formed
around a nucleus of four ex-
perienced mat men. Hank Feur-
back, Bob Dreher, Ray Wolfe,
and Roy Negus saw service on
the mats last year. Brad Grif-
fen, Frank Prindle, Dave Bur-
roughs, Walt Barbash, Tom
Fagan, Rebel Hochmuth and
Earl Nare are newcomers to
the sport this year, Coach Gar-
cia stresses the fact that wrest-
ling can not become a varsity
sport until there are enough
men to schedule some good
meets. Anyone who is interested
in wrestling is urged to contact
Coach Garcia or to report to
the Milne gym at 3:45 any day.

For First Win
Tonight on the Page hardwoods,
the Peds will be gunning for vic-
tory number 2 on the season when
they engage the Harpur Colonials.
Also at stake tonight will be an
eight game win compiled by the
Peds over the last two years on
Page. Harpur was one of State's
victims when they invaded from
the Triple City area last year, but
took revenge by taking a one point
victory over the boys from State
before their fans. Tomorrow the
Statesmen will take to the road
again, this time in quest of a vic-
tory over New Paltz, Last year the
Peds took a 67-45 decision from
New Paltz there and concluded the
season with an easy 73-48 victory
on Page.
Statesmen Conquer Oswego
Last Saturday night the Oswego
visitors found the Statesmen were
too good an outfit to be conquered
by them as they absorbed an 82-72
setback. The men from State didn’t
show any signs of being tired after
playing the previous night in New
q York, where they dropped a 57-50
decision, Instead’ they bettered the
good showing they made there and
; came through with the type of play

from
y Against Oswego they ran up a quick
lead which resulted from the utili-
zation of practiced plays and accur-
ale shooting. This lead was grad-
ually diminished and State led at
half time by a 37-35 edge.
Walker, Allasio Top Scorers
In the second half Bill Walker
and John Allasio gave the fans an
idea of how a couple of outside men
can score. Walker was getting that
extra step on his defensive man and
driving by him for those two point-
ers, Allasio, on the other hand, was
hitting with his famed deadly
right hander of his from the side.
Walker tallied 19 points for the
oints for the night, while Allasio
accounted for 17 before fouling out.
