POnring Ouer The Exchange

Detroit—Police said today that
they might end a beautiful friend-
ship when they broke up a dice

game and arrested John Hill, 34,
and Howard Marshall, 19, A search
of Marshall's pockets turned up 14
dice, all loaded. Hill glared at Mar-
shall. Then 53 dice were taken from
Hill's pockets, They were loaded,
too.

Speaking of Detroit, the last name
in the Detroit telephone directory
is Zeke Zzzpt.

From the Bowdoin Orient: “The
first observance of dry rushing was
a distinct success .. . From all re-
ports the new ruling has been well
observed in spirit and in letter.”
Paradoxial, what?

The McGil! Daily, newspaper of
McGill University, Montreal, Cana-
da, quotes the Montreal Daily Star's
comment upon the news that men
in the residence halls would have
to make their own beds to elimin-
ate the cost of maids service “Who
knows what mental quirk may now
befuddle these young men through
life by this unusual humiliation im-
posed at an impressionable age?”’

The Exchange rack will be set up

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1952

We Explain ...

In discontinuing its practice of contacting the
leaders of eleven sororities and fraternities, seven
residence halls, six departmental clubs, and five
religious clubs each week for information to be re-
leased in the News, we feel that we have acted
with the best interests of these organizations and
the News itself in mind. We are understaffed this
year. We do not have enough reporters to expect
them to contact these 29 leaders every week for
news often of a routine nature, and yet have them
cover other assignments adequately. Our action in
no way, indicates that we deem your news unim-
portant or of less importance than other stories,
We do mean that we feel your leaders are in a
far better position than we to know when you are
holding a meeting, when you have initiated new
members, etc., and that, if they wish this infor-
mation publicized, we are not being unreasonable
in asking them to be responsible for getting it to
us by Tuesday nights, This, we feel, will result in
the elimination of much time consuming work
for our reporters, work which often does not yleld
a story but which formerly had to be done each
week regardless, and in much better coverage for
your activities. .

We give you fair warning. The details of the
procedure to be followed appear in a news story
in this issue. Beginning with next Friday’s paper,
we will not be responsible for information not pub-
lished because you did not regard it important
enough to report it to us.

Well Done...

The organizers of last Sunday’s All-State Day
are deserving of a great deal of credit for having
made this, the first large scale attempt at such an
event, a success. Poor planning, which has often
been the detracting feature of All-College activi-
ties in the past, was not evident in last Sunday's
schedule of events; the day’s activities were well
coordinated and ran smoothly, While faculty par-
ticipation in the evening's entertainment may have
left something to be desired, during the entire day,
the faculty, proportionally were far better repre-
sented than the student body. A fine example has
been set for a concrete method of bettering student-
faculty relations and increasing college unity by
the leaders of State’s first All-State Day.

Closed Nominations .. .

As the situation stands now, elections for Soccer
Queen will be held from November third through
sixth outside of assembly with Student Union
Board supervising the voting and counting of bal-
lots, Let us say here that we consider the proposed
idea of a home-coming weekend an admirable one
and that the choosing of a Soccer Queen will do
much to increase student interest and_participa-
tion in the event. However, we do question the ad-
visability of having the “selection” of nomini
come from the Board alone, thus defeating part
of the interest-gathering factor.We feel that SA
will go along with the Board's opinion that a
cheerleader or sport's participant would be most
appropriate for the honor, but at least give them
the opportunity of having some say in writing the
ballot. How about it, Student Union Board? It's
not too late to reverse yourself and re-open nom-
inations, The results will probably be the same,
but SA attitude will be much healthier,

It is very hard, amid the hubyb
of @ political campaign, to separate
from the mass of propaganda which
both parties grind out the truly
pertinent issues,

With great difficulty, then, 1
chose five points of the Democratic
campaign strategy to analyze as the
basic issues of this campaign.

As in 1948, the Demooratie strat-
egy capitalizes on the average vot-
er's distrust of the G.O.P, as the
party of “unemployment and bread
lines.” They represent the G.O.P.
as the “party of the special inter-
ests." They appeal to their own
kind of interests—labor, the farm-
er, the negro. Let's analyze this
Democratic strategy.

1, To Jaber they threaten and
promise: Remember 1932! Elect us
and we'll repeal Taft-Hartley. But
this same Democratic party prom-
ised this same repeal four years ago.
And, after four years in power, they
have not only NOT repealed the
law, they have, in fact, rejected
any and ajl amendments to the
law, And |sn'} that situation due
to two factors—namely, they don't
want to have Taft-Hartley amend-
ed because they would loge a eam-

Campaign

paign issue and they can’t repeal
it because a large proportion of
their own membship favor the law?

2. The Negro is told that if elect-
ed, Stevenson will support civil
rights measures. Maybe so, but
isn’t it strange that this same party
has in it a group which has ef-
fectively bottled up all congression-
al civil rights legislation in the last
50 years?

3. This same party, the champion
of the Negro voter of the North,
was so interested in placating the
South that it gave second highest
Fosition on the ticket to a man
who has for years run on the Ala-
bama Democratic ticket so con-
spicuously marked “White Suprem-
acy.”

4. The Democrats promise that,
if elected, they will clean gut “the
mess in Washington,” Well, the
Democratic show may have a new
leading man, but the supporting
cast {s still the same. The only way
to get rid of the termites that in-
fest our Government is to clean it
out from top to bottom,

5. The Democrats point toward
the Korean War as a triumphal ex-
ercise of American foresight and
diplomatic Integrity. A long look at
recent Korean history will prove to
you th? shortalghtedness of this
argument, Our Par-Eastern policy,
in fact our whole foreign policy, has
been a series of stop-gaps.

These are the important issues
of the campaign as I see them, The
Democrats stand devoid of both
new leadership and any new pyo-
gram. Every Democratic convention
results in the same thing: a meal
of warmed up 1932. We need a
party of the future, not the past;
of 1952, not '32.

We Republicans don't pretend to
offer the American people a panacea
foy the troubles in which we find
ourselyes. We can promise only ef-
ficient, scholarly government, head-
ed by a famous leader of men, We
can promise you only leadership,
honesty and tolerance, Will you put
your trust in us?

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
“Just stand aside and watch yourself go by,
Think of yourself as “he” instead of “1
—Gillilan

THIS IS THE GREATEST

Calling the select Ed 20 people in Miss Conklin’s
classes . . . You can now pick up your required copy
of “Baby and Child Care” at the Co-op. Noticed that
it's a “common sense guide for parents on the care
of children from birth to adolescence.” Now you can
be a great parent 9s well as teacher.

BRING BACK NEWBOLD

Hats off to the All-State Day Committee and its
fine work in froviding an excellent day's entertain-
‘ment. However, this was to have been a student-
faculty affair , , . where were the faculty? Here was
their chance to show us that they're interested in
us and working with us. What happened??22

0 FORI

Will Myskania nobly sacrifice the cost of one of
its dinners to pay for the wasted ballots of last Fri-
day's elections???? Maybe that all important soccer
game with the frosh was just too much for this
year’s “leaderg," Seriously, though, it was their first
election end to make an error is human. But, they
should hove checked that stencil!

SOMETHING WORTHWHILE

“God loveth a cheerfui giver.” Yes, {t's greovt to
see you, the student body, contributing so generously
to the Campus Chest auctions, You can help furthe>
by attending the Jam Session and Dance being held
Saturday. Help State go all the way this year!

RARE OPPORTUNITY

A rare trent indeed was enjoyed by all who at-
tended Dr. Hung’s talks Wednesday, By combining
some real sparkling humor with an excellent knowl-
edge of his subject matter, Dr, Hung was in com-
plete command of his audience. I'm certain that
watching him would have been a fine lab for all
Ed students (and teachers). And, why won't the pro~
fessors exeuse us from classes when we do get op~
portunities like this?

Hung Lectures
On Government

State College students were
rented to a rare opportunity Wed-
lay when one of the world's
yemost scholars—Dr. Hung, citi-
zen of China and Professor of Har-
yard's Oriental studies — lectured
here on what he termed, “China
Proper and China Imprope!

China Improper, Dr. Hung’s
morning lecture, dealt with the po-
litical aspects of China. In this
portion of his presentation, he
considered the fall of old govern-
ments and the rise of new ones, en-
gendered by the discontent of the
governed. Confucius had said many
centuries before that of the three
important duties of the govern-
ment: to feed the people, to defend
the people and to engender trust
and belief in the government by
the people, and the latter was the
tncst. important; yet in many ag
the least considered. Guns and food
can not satisfy the hunger for id-
ecologies. Subsequently, Dr. Hung
rrocede to the ills of government
today.

Dr. Hung. considering Chinese
dynasties in particular, believes the
main evil of governments to be ex-
cessively burdensome taxation, In
the case of China, this was brought
upon rather ironically by the fact
that the Chinese believe the less
government, the better. To keep
them occupied, government offic-
inls were privileged to engage in
polygamy which increased the num-
ber of children and which increased

In Latin America

Dr. Shaw Announces
een Conditions,

Scholarship Provisions
All students who are desirous of
studying in Latin America, will be
interested in a recent announce-
ment from Dr, Edward P. Shaw,
Professor of Modern Languages,
that scholarships are now being
offered for one year of academic
residence in that area. Sixteen
countries are covered by these
awards made available under the
Convention for the Promotion of
Inter-American Cultural Relations,

The eligibility requirements for
these scholarships include United
States citizenship, knowledge of the
language of the country sufficient
to carry on the proposed study, a
good academic record, good health,
and a bachelor's degree at the time
of the grant.

Round-trip transportation will be
paid by the United States govern-
ment. The host government will
contyibute tuition and a monthly
maintenance allowance, However,
Dr. Shaw advises that the grantees
will probably have to supplement
thelr maintenance allowance from
other sources to meet cost-of-living
expenses,

Aspirants for these scholarships
should write immediately for appli-
cations to the Federal Security
Agency, Office of Education, Inter~
national Educational Program
Branch, Washington 25, D. C,

These scholarships should be of
rarticular interest to students of
Spanish culture, since neither
Spain nor Latin American coun-
tries are included at present in the
Fulbright Plan, Dr. Shaw advises,

THESE HANDS ARE PRICELESS!

They protect the American way of life . . . our homes, our freedoms, our future.

These Hands, sensitively trained to respond acutely to the com-
mands of an alert mind and courageous heart, are the hands of a
United States Air Force Pilot.

The skillful touch of these hands attunes the blasting speed of
modern jet aircraft to effective missions in discouraging any
enemy. These hands are supremely capable of flying and fighting
these machines with devastating effect.

These Hands belong to young, spirited American men (not supermen) who desire to live
unmolested in a free America . .. who want to enjoy the same rights and opportunities open to

all real American people.

These Hands belong to our sons—yours and mine. Youths who
must decide today how they can share in defense of our nation and
also better themselves. To insure greater chances of their success,
today’s college men should be encouraged to complete their educa-
tion and then serve their country best by enlisting as Aviation
Cadets in the U.S. Air Force.

Theirs is the choice of becoming either a Pilot or Aircraft
Observer. After graduation as Second Lieutenants in the U.S. Air
Force, they wear the silver wings of flying executives and begin
earning nearly $5300 a year.

These Hands represent a man ready to qualify for this tremendous task because he is between

the ages of 19 and 26!

; years, unmarried, and in excellent physical condition, espe
ears, heart and teeth. He possesses at least two years of college

ly eyes,
and the inherent urge to fly.

These Hands shape the destiny of America, .. the difference between our survival and oblivion.
‘The U. S. Air Force needs the hands, the minds and the hearts of young Americans who
desire to make the American way a greater way of peace and happiness for all.

As ABC: I Hathaway Starts State To W

Meet Rival,

By ABEL BLATTMAN

Exceptional athletes can gener-
ally be divided into one of three
major categories: There are the
colorful ones, who supply the hu-
man interest in the game, whether
it be their personality or style of
play that impresses one; the con-
sistent athlete, who invariably
turns in a steady and commendable
game; and finally the athlete who
possesses one characteristic that
probably encompasses some of the
others, he is the one with class.
This type of guy has that added
bit of finesse, that intangible some-

player’s ball-player,

‘The number of this tyre of com-
petitor is very limited. Many teams
don’t have even one such player,
and it is a rarity when a team
comes up with more than one.

We are fortunate in having a
player of this caliber on the State
College Varsity Soccer team. That
player is our goalie, Pete Telfer.
Telf never played soccer before
coming to sue, bi © is one of
the best that we've ever seen since
the sport was begun at this institu-
tion, opponents included.

His consistently fine kicking his
poise in the heat of battle, are ev-
idence of his class as an athlete.
In the field of competition he
knows what to do, how to do it,
and how to look good in doing it.
Although a good portion of this
ability is inherent, the greater part
of it is the desire foy perfection,
and the diligence necessary in at-
taining this perfection

The fact that he has learned un-
der one of the better soccer coach-
es, has been an added boon to the
State Soccer team, and thereby the
student body of State.

Pete's class as a ballplayer is not
limited to soccer. It exists in bas-
ketball, softball and other competi-
tive endeavors. His broad interests
and outstanding achievements in
other fields make him a tribute to
this college in more ways than one.
We are proud to be in a position
to give him the public acclaim he
deserves.

Hoop Practice
For Tough Year

The required physical examina-
tions have been given te the bas-
ketball candidates and the Hath-
awaymen have begun practicing in
ernest for the grueling twenty-game
schedule. Workouts previous to
these exams had been limited to
running, calisthenics, and pickup
games not directed by Coach Hath-
away. In the forthcoming practices
Hathaway will probably trim down
the 55-man squad and separate the
players to the varsity and junior
varsity teams,

Newcomers Look Good

According to all reports, many
frosh and transfers look like they
might hustle some of last year’s
veterans for positions on the J.V,
and varsity. Except for the loss of
Tom Hoppey, Al Peachy, Art Weig-
and, and Captain Bob Brown, last
year’s varsity is still intact. Hold-
overs, including Bod Tabor, Hiram
Walker, Jonn Centra, Bud Prout,
John Zongrone, Get McDonald,
John Allasio, and Claude Palczak,
will provapiy form the nucleus of
this year’s team. However, none cf
these men have the:r positions sew-
ed up, and will have to beat out
sever 1 the newcomers in the race
for their old positions.

Many veterans from Joe Garcia's
fine junior varsit: team of last year
will also be fighting for varsity
berths, Combs, Fernandez, DeMi-
chiell, Bennett, Comley, Sage, Coan,
and McKay will rpen the com-
petition for the varsity positions.

Labs Remain Obstacle

The late afternuon labs which
were expected to prevent the team
from practicing together still loom
as the main obstacles which have
to be overcome. Many of the veter-
ans from last year are science ma-
jors and have cne or more labora-
tories per week which keep them
from practice. A team naturally has
to work out together to produce a
winning ccmbination, So it seems
that, unless this unfortunate situ-
ation can be remedied, our hopes for
a successful basketball season will
be seriously threatened

Scein' With Mohan
By DOTTIE MEHAN

If you were asked to pick the
quality or asset in a person that
makes that person outstanding in
athletics, what would you mention?
Perhaps you might think first of
skill and know-how, cr of good,
level-headed intelligence, or old-
fashioned horse sense. Or calm cool
thinking in the heat of competition
might count with you. Maybe you
would consider a thorough working
kncwledge of the rules and intrica-
sies of the game essential in your
criteria,

Certainly all of these qualities go
into the making of a good athlete,
and when combined with a sense of
how to subordinate one’s self for
ihe working excellence of a team,
‘ou have on ycur hands a sports-
man worthy of recognition,

A walking example of this ideal
athlete is Marilyn Wittschen, Dur-
ing the fall sports season, Marilyn
shines on the hockey field, playing
her game with the complete effort-
lessness that is the mark of a mas-

r. Her style and form show expert
caching and training, and yet
while watching her, you are never
aware of her care in this matter,
sin iL appears te be so easy for
her.

Marilyn plays a particularly good
defensive game, instinctively plac-
ing her.elf where she sees she 1s
most needed. She has a fast, power
ful and accurate drive that is so
important for a halfback, No
amount of tension or excitement
perturbs this girl. She remains calm,
thinking quickly and intelligently
even at the highest pitch of a close
game

Moreover, her unusual grace and
prowess is not confined te hockey.
Marilyn handles almost any sport

ou might mention with the same
vegree of perfection she achieves in
hockey.

Over Oswego

Beverwyck Field will be vacant
this weekend since State's soccer
team does not have any games
scheduled, Next Wednesday the Peds
will again take to the road, this
time, with hope of bettering their
previcus showings, Union College,

somewhat of an “arch rival,” will

furnish the opposition, Reports have
it that the Union players are “up”
for this contest. The Union clash
will be the last away game, the Arn-
old-State contest. being scheduled
for yesterday.

State Edges Oswego 2-1

Last Saturday, State continued its
masterful ways at home by outlast-
ing Oswego State 2-1, The Peds were
hampered fron the beginning by
the Icss of Al Cannon. To fill up
the vacancy various shifts in the
lineup were made, Probably the
most effective was the switching of
Joe Stella from halfback position to
a forward post. Stella came through
with the game's winning goal, and,
according to many observers, it was
one of the most impressive goals of
the campaign,

Gswego Scores First

Oswego, in their initial play, def-
initely seemed on the way to post-
ing their first victory of the year as
they tallied their only goal in the
opening minutes of play. State, not
\o be outsdone, be*an to overcome the
disadvantages of the re-arranged
ineup and gained a 1-1 tle at the
end of the first half, This goal came
by virtue of George Wood's “bank”
shot which actually was booted in
by an Oswego player. The last half
of the game was played mostly in
Oswego territory, Although State
had numercus opportunities to
score, they capitalized only once,
that being on Stella's goal.

The game as a whole could not
be considered a3 well played as
most of State's games. It seemed
that. at times in the final half that

Sabol Declares
Test Application
Now Available '

Applications for the Selective
Service Qualification tests to be
given December 4, 1952 and April
23, .1953, are now available in Mil-
ne, room 131, through Dr. R.
Gardner, Supervisor of Mathemat-

All eligible students who intend
to take this test on either date
should apply at once to Dr. Gard-
ner to secure the application and
bulletin of information. Applica-
tions for the December 4 test must
be postmarked no later than mid-
night, November 1, 1952.

According to the Educational
Testing Service, which prepares
and administers the College Quali-
fication Test for the Selective Ser-

the student's advantage to file his
application at once, regardless of
the testing date he selects. The re-

the amount of government patron-
age. Soon the royal patronage sys-
tem was out of proportion to an
equitable taxation. As Dr, Hung ob-
served, “Royal patronage is not an
American innovation but a Chinese
discovery.” In this instance as so
many others, the spontaneous wit
and humor of Dr. Hung did not
altogether conceal what was per-
haps the main intent of the lec-
ture—to show us that China does
not stand alone in her follies.

The afternoon lecture concerning
Tu Fu, Chinese poet of the eighth
century A.D,, subject of one of Dr.
Hung’s latest literary works, and
the greatest Chinese poet in a cul-
ture renowned for its literary pro-
lificacy, deall with China Proper.
China Proper—productive China—

of poetry, painting and cooking. Tu
Fu, master of all Chinese poetry
up to his day, innovated more col-
loquial forms in which he ". . . in-
terpreted the world and his own

Dr. Hung, one of the great in-

his audience to weigh the merits

station where the incident was
filed under the heading of “The

Here are “10 ways to get through
college without even trying,” as
written in Pageant magazine by
bids Robert Tyson of Hunter Col-
lege:

1, Bring the professor newspaper
clippings dealing with his subject.
If you don’t find clippings dealing
with his subject, bring in clippings
at random. He thinks everything
deals with his subject.

2. Look alert. Take notes eagerly.
If you look at your watch, don’t
stare at it unbelievingly and shake
t.

3. Nod frequently and murmur
“How true.” To you, this seems ex-
aggerated. To him, it’s quite objec-
tive.

4, Sit in front, near him. (Applies
only if you intend to stay awake.)

5, Laugh at his jokes. You can
tell. If he looks up from his notes
and smiles expectantly he has told
a joke,

6. Ask for outside reading. You
don’t have to read it, Just ask.

7. If you must sleep, arrange to
be called at the end of the hour.
It creates an unfavorable impres-
sion if the rest of the class has left
and you sit there alone, dozing.

8. Be sure the book you read dur-
ing the lecture looks like a book
from the course.

9, Ask any questions you think he
can answer. Conversely, avoid an-
nouncing that you have found the
answer, and in your brother's sec-
ond reader at that.

10. If you know he’s written a
book or an article, call attention to
his writing by asking in class if he
wrote it,

Survey Continues

GOP Tradition

As the nation goes to the polls
this Tuesday, State College will al-
ready have selected its presidential
choice, having, for the fourth con-
secutive time, given the Republican
nominee preference in the race for
the top office of the land. In the
political poll conducted last Friday,
with 761 or 58.5% of the student
body participating, Dwight D. Eis-
enhower, Republican candidate for
the presidency, received 63% of the
votes cast ior that office. His clo-
sest contestant, Governor Adlai E.
Stevenson, garnered 36% of the
ballots cast for president, while the
remaining 1% of the votes were
divided among Thomas, Hallinan,
Russell, and Taft.

Vote Continues Tradition

The vote this year is in keeping
with the tradition that State Col-
lege is Republican. Only once in the
twenty-four years that the poll has
been conducted has a Democratic
candidate been given the margin of
victory, this being in 1936 when, by
a na , the Association
chose the late Franklin D, Roose-
velt.

Of the 58.5% of the Student Body
participating in this year's poll,
only 13.5% listed themselves as
voters, this being an 84% reduc-
tion in qualified voters from last
year. The Eisenhower-Stevenson
contest among the voters was rel-
atively close, Eisenhower receiving
€2 votes to Stevenson's 41, The
non-voters, however, swung the
percentages heavily in favor of the
Republican nominee, granting him
413 of their votes, while casting 237
