Verdant Voting
One of the most significant aspects of Student
government at State revolves about freshman class
elections—the only voting uninfluenced by fra-
ternal and sororal ties or jealousies. Every organ-
ized group on campus is interested in the outcome
of the election of this comparatively unorganized
group.
The importance
too strongly emphasized, Its
the future of both the class of '47 as a whole as
well as the careers of individual members. Only
freshmen appear to possess the courage to run for
office because they hope for positions regardle:
organized opposition, By the time they become
upperclassmen, only a few names will appear on the
ist of candidates, Even only one year's voting will
prove to them that without organization nothing
can be accomplished,
Assuming that each of this year's candidates
s definite qualifications for their respective
that any one of them would fill
the positions adequately, But this is not enough.
The more successful the leaders, the more successful
will be the career of the class of ‘47 at State.
‘ nee the class of '44 chose a woman presi-
of Monday’s voting cannot be
results will determine
Ever s
dent to lead them through both their freshman
and Sophomore years, there has been incteased
emphasis upon selecttg a woman president, Kven
with its sparse male membership, the freshman
class faces this problem also. nee rivalry, one of
the main projects of the class, is exclusively for
the women this year (with the possible exception
of banner rivalry), a woman could more capably
administer this phase of class activity, However,
on the side of the men candidates is. the ever-
present fact that some women refuse to back a cane
didate of their own sex out of sheer jealousy.
The question is one which the freshmen must
work out for themselves Several organized groups
are at work already. Whatever the decisions of
these groups and the class as a whole, one thing is
certain, ‘The outcome of the election will not
satisfy everyone, and disappointed candidates and
followers may he inclined to assume an indifferent
attitude regarding class activities. © Nevertheless
unity is the keynote to the success of any: class
during its four years at State. Holding grudges
will not achieve such a result. Cooperation. and
unity will determine whether the class of 47 is going
to get the best out of State in spite of the abnormal
times in which they are attending college.

Notes and Half-Notes
By Doris Fleishman
Overcoming a slow start, Conrad
Thibault made Friday night a mem-
crable and enjoyable evening for
all those who attended his concert.
Mr. Thibault did as well as could
was little opportunity to show off
his vocal or dramatic abilities in the
stilted style of the early composers,
Martini and Rosa, My Lovely Celia
and My Old Nag Ned found the
artist more at ease, especially when
the latter met with thunderous ap-
plause from the audience. Its rol-
licking rhythm served to break the
ice all around and from then on the
concert took on an informel air
which both the artist and the aud-
ience enjoyed.
The outstanding number in the
second group was Poulene's La
Belle Jeunesse, This number gave
Mr. Thibault the opportunity to
show off his range and volume
which were both amazing as to size.
The motions here came more freely,
too. The Spanish number La
Partida was beautifully done. At
the end of this group, the hackney-
ed La Paloma was done as an en-
core. It was agreed that the “eyes
had it with this number.
‘The fourth and fifth groups were
composed of modern American and
English numbers. ‘Two perennial
favorites of any baritone's reper-
toire are The Blind Plonyhman
and De Glory Road. Here Mr. Thi-
bault finally found his forte and
in the latter he really let loose. Ma-
lotte's Sing a Song of Sixpence could
not be left out of any criticism of
the concert. It was number one on
the hit parade of the concert.
From the technical point of view,
Mr, Thibault made a very fine
showing. His tonal quality was
resonant and full, he showed
an amazing width of range, and
the enunciation in all his selections
was clear—even when he sang in
French, Italian and Spanish. This
is all to his credit, On the debit
side of the ledger is Mr. Thibault's
choice of selections. They did not
give him ample opportunity to show
off his capabilities. In his num-
bers wth southern dialect, he for-
got to show off his southern drawl.
All through the concert, you could
feel the influence of Mr. Thibault's
background, of his Italian style
of singing—overtrilled “r's" and
sustained high notes. These are
fine for operatic stage, but were
out of place Friday night at Page
Hall.
A word might be said about Mr.
Mowbray, Mr. Thibault's accompan-
ist. It was surprising that he did
not present a piano group of his
own for he proved himself a capable
pianist despite the limitations of
pmpanying an artist without
overshadowing him.

COMMUTERS AND COLLEGE
This is the story of the Forgotten Man of State
College. That's not what he's called, however. He
is mown as a commuter and he composes perhaps
25 % of the college's total enrollment. For financial
reasons or otherwise he “rides the rails”—that is
he gets up at 6 or 7 instead of 8:50 to make his 9:00
classes and he spends an hour or two getting back
home at night. ‘This traveling shortens his day and
rakes him unable to attend those 3:30 and 4:30 meet-
ings of the various organizations in the afternoon,
This eliminates him quite thoroughly from most of
the extra-curricular activities at State.. His college
social life is somewhat sketchy, too. Probably he
hasn't joined sorority or fraternity because these or-
ganizations can’t afford to have too many commuters
and because it's much more difficult to get acquaint-
ed with them than with the students in the dorms
and group houses. For these and other reasons, he's
hot very much interested in school politics and
affairs. “He takes a more or less philosophic attitude
when elections roll around and very seldom evinces
any passionate interest in school projects.
Tf he does happen to be interested in
curricular activities it's really tough. | Fi
quite a burden with his studies and commuting alone.
Secondly, organizations need as leaders people who
are available nights and days and thirdly, in the
same connection there's no place for him to stay if
he wants to, He might stay at the dorm dinner
breakfast, 8.85 and a bed on the floor but maybe
he doesn't know anyone in the dorm. He could sit
in the library and study till 6:30 but then he would be

about these things.
Guess Again
While on the subject of last week's
OB we find that in spite of the
eighty odd lines we devoted to ex-
plaining why we handed in the old
portfolio, people insist on coming
up with “the reason behind.”
‘There is one prevalent theme, with
two variations. Variation one is
put forth by those to whom the OB
maestro afflicts with an accute

GB did what he did to heckle Queen
Pat from the front. To these dull-
ards we should like to point out
the simple theatrical fact that one
heekle much better from the
stage than from underneath the
halcony.
Variation two (from

good old altruistic Kiley gave up
his seat on the stage to lead the
opposition, whatever that is, ‘Thank
you friends, thank you, but good

League Resumes
Following Lay off
Ramblers Undefeated
As Sheiks Lose Again
With two of last week's games
casualties of the freshman skit and
an epidemic of minor injuries among
the players, the IM League resumed
play this week.
In Wednesday's game the hard
luck Sheiks were trounced once
again. This time the undefeated
Ramblers turned the trick by a score
of 44-24.
The first two quarters showed
some really fine and close football.
Led by Poulos, the Sheiks made a
much better stand than it had in
any of the previous games,
Poulos Scores Twice
The first score came before the
game was more than two minutes
old as Poulos sliced through the
Ramblers to gain their goal line.
Then Hammond came back to knot
the count when he skirted the right
end for twenty yards and a touch-
down. Immediately the Sheiks re-
taliated by shaking Poulos loose
once again for six points. For good
measure Cote also scored, this time
on a short pass. Making up for
lost time the Ramblers sent Kiley
and Dickinson over in quick suecess-
ion. Score at the half, 18-18.
With Kiley leading, the Ramblers
soon turned the second half into a
e. The Shetks, without the se
vices of Potlos who had been forced
out by injuries, were unable to stop
the four touchdowns which followed.
Three of these were scored by Kiley
and one by Hammond. A single tally
by the Sheiks late in the fourth
quarter ended the game.
Faloons Win Close One
Sparked by Fancher, the Falcons
won a close game from the Shelks
Tuesday, the final score being 18 to
1
Sheiks displayed plenty of
power and deception early in the
game taking the lead when Poulos
went over on an end run from the
five-yard line early in the second
period. ‘The Falcons roared back
and knotted the count when Coulter
scored on a neatly executed reverse.
The second Falcon marker came
Fancher flipped a pass to Read who
raced over. The final Faleon si
pointer occurred when Fancher,
taking © pass went on a jaunt around
right end for a TD
The Sheiks came back to life late
in the last period and scored the
‘nal tally. A pass from Coulter to
Cote climaxed the touchdown drive.

Sophs Defeat Frosh
At Obstacle Meets
The Obstacle Races which were
scheduled to be one of the inain
features of Campus Day, were post-
poned due to inclement weather that
morning. Instead they were held
Monday afternoon on Page Hall
field.
The contest resulted in a sweep-
ing victory for the Sophomore wo-
men. They captured the three ri-
valry points allotted to the winner:
Eileen Shoup took first place in
the fifty yard dash with Gloria
Baker running a close second, The
three-legged relay reached its climax
when Shoup and Slack, the final
contestants, succeeded in chalking
up another point to the Sophomore
score
The last event of the afternoon
was a “suitcase” race which result-
ed in some confusion when it was
discovered, at a crucial moment, that
the frosh suitcase was locked. In
the repeat encounter the Sophomores
were once more victorious.
The Sophs who participated were

Slack, Kendall, Seymour, Harper,

The rivalry score now stands:

Rivalry ; Game
The Dorm field was the scene of
an exciting contest Wednesday after-
noon when the Sophomore and
freshman girls met there to battle
for the traditional two rivalry points.
The Sophs won 2-1,
In the first half, the freshmen
definitely showed superiority in
passwork and coordination, with
Gloria Baker sparking the attack.
The frosh swept down the field but
were stopped by a few feet from the
Soph's goal by a skillful interfer-
ence from Harper. Undaunted, the
Gremlins managed to score the first
goal. Mastrangelo, Guido, Hilt and
McCormick played a very fast game
and Davidson's power drives amazed
both participants and on-lookers,
Van Auken, Sabatini, and Slack
were the main-springs of the Soph
attack. Shoup made a gallant try
for a goal in this half, but missed
by a few inches. Tini’s long drives
brought the ball nearer to its ob-
jective. However, there was not suf-
ficient teamwork to get the bull
across the goal.
The second half moved at a much
faster pace. The action took place
almost entirely near the frosh goal.
The Sophomore's teamwork seemed
to be smoother and a spirited attack
was initiated. They scored a goal
early in this half, The freshmen
threatened seriously only once, and
this attempt was thwarted nicely by
VerNoy, who played a steady and
capable game. Lulkowski and Dunn
competently filled their positions
and aided in ariving over the second
goal for the Sophs.

Having vented our spleen in an
earlier column on the slow progress
made in completing the first round
of the woman's tennis tournament,
we wish to express our great pleas-
ure in seeing in WAA’s little sheet
that they are expecting to see the
tourney finished “within a week or
so." To us this seems a bit opti-
mistic since Indian summer is evi-
dently migrating southwards, (or
some place far from these regions,
anyway), and there are five
matches yet to be played, In our
opinion the last few matches take
as long as the first few rounds put
together. Kramer and Hilt are still
unknown quantities, Kramer is a
particularly dark horse since she
has advanced into the big-time stuff
solely on defaults. We wonder if
either of these two are capable of
upsetting the mighty Garfall-Gia-
velli combine, or the tourney-wise
Simon.
We hope that you read the first
sue of the “WAA Sportlight” with
much interest as we did, The
sports department perused it a bit
critically as befits fellow sufferers,
and found it an excellent general
review of the fall program, For
future issues we suggest a few more
personal touches, such as thumb-
nail sketches of WAA's leaders or
anecdotes which have remained
ereted in the bosoms of the ama-
zons for the lack of a worthy outlet.

Lecture onChina
Miss Mary Byrne. guest speaker
in this morning's assembly, will por-
tray Chinese life to the students.
Miss Byrne, a former student at
State is being brought here by New-
man Club. She has spent two years in
China with the Mesdames of the
Sacred Heart, teaching Chinese stu-
dents the fundamentals of English.
Journey to China
It was while teaching in a New
York City school that Miss Byrne
decided to travel to China and
obtained a sabbatical leave of two
years from the New York City Board
of Education. During her stay in
China, she was overcome by the dis-
couraging poverty and lack of social
progress which prevailed throughout
the more rural parts of China, There,
too. she saw the eagerness and am-
bitions of the scholars to adopt
Occidental ways of life. Upon her
retuen to America, Miss Byrne re-
solved to go back to China and es-
tablish there @ Catholic Normal
School to be the foundation of
American civilization in China.
Plans Important Misison
Miss Byrne has been spoken of as
“the first American laywoman to
attempt a mission of such great
import.” This mission consists of
presenting a well-rounded English
survey course to the young Chinese
women. The main emphasis will be
“English as used in every-day life.”
An unusual aspect of this school is
the fact tal commercial subjects
such as typing and shorthand will
be taught, The most advanced and
ssive of the Chinese students
pected to go into journal
ism where they are vitally needed
the majority to enter various com-
mercial fields. ‘The acme of Miss
Byrne's plans will be achieved when
an organized exchange of students
is effected between America and
China—thereby promoting a basis
for permanent understanding.
Invasion imminent, Miss Byrne
left China aboard a Japanese vessel
and returned to America where she
is attempting to enlist the aid of the
American people as a whole, to make
‘eturn to China and the eventual
ablishment of a State Normal
School a reality.
