Vote Against

“Europeanization

Results In Saar Gov't’ Resignation

By MALCOLM ROGERS

The world political spotlight is
focused on Europe currently with
several important developments tak-
ing place there. The government
of Premier Johannes Hoffman of
the Saar resigned this week because
of an overwhelming vote on the part
of the Saarlanders against the
“Europeanization” plan which was
supported by his pro-French govern-
ment. Major factors in voting were
the unpopularity of the Hoffman
regime and the basic ethnological
ties to the Germanic people as op-
posed to the French. This yote will
probably increase tension between
France and Germany and heap more
burdens upon the already shaky
shoulders of the Faure government.
One can not help think of 1935
when a similar election ended in a
similar vote. Let's hope that two
powers can settle this difficulty
reasonably and that there is not an
epidemic of intense nationalism in
either country,

The Geneva Conference of For-
eign Ministers is again tackling the
problems of German reunification
and European security. The Wes-
tern powers will demand a treaty
signed by the Big Four and a
united Germany which will provide
safeguards against aggression. It is
strange that a nation we would
have “agriculturalized” ten years
ago is now being wooed by both the
East and the West, engaged in a
titantic ideological struggle, The in-
dustrial strength of Germany and
its strategic location in Europe may
well be the factors which tip the
scales in years to come.

Asia seems to be shininy with the
light from new democracies on her
underside even though broad ex-
panses to the north are in eternal
darkness. South Vietnam has de-
posed Emperor Bao Dai in favor of
a republican type government head-
ed by Premier Ngo Dinh Diem. By
an absolute landslide, Diem suc-

Frosh Apologize
To Sophomores

Judy Vimmerstedt ‘56, Chairman
of Warnings Commission of Mys-
kania, announces that the following
freshmen received two or more
warnings from upperclassmen:
Richard Carey, four and five warn-
ings; Edward Wever and Richard
Barfield, three warnings; and Don-
na Divens and Barbara Forsythe,
two warnings, The Chairman of
Warnings Commission also announ-
ces that Richard Barfield, Richard
Carey, and Edward Wever will make
their apologies in the Sophomore
class meeting on Tuesday, Novem-
ber 1,

The upperclassmen have given a
total number of one hundred nine
warnings to the freshman class so
far,

Freshmen who receive their first
warning are warned that such a
violation is not to be repeated. A
second offense means that the of-
fender is to have his or her name
published in the State College News,
and a third, an apology before the
Sophomore class

Commerce, DE Clubs

Bruce Wise ‘66, President of Com-

as anyone could from the French

Riviera, The United States and the
Republic of France have already an-

We might mention in passing that
the United Nations celebrated its

born in the mind of Franklin Roose-

I am reminded, however, of a speech
by Bishop Sheen in which he re-

“Smiles” Admits
New Members

Smiles has accepted seven new
members this week, according to
Mary Knight '57, President of the
organization. The successful tryout:
from the class of '59 are Freida
Bachman, Verrity Pulliam, Elizabeth
Ruffles, and Barbara Rosen. Those
from the class of '58 include Frank
Merley, Todd Pulliam, and Jeanne
Barre. Candidates for Smiles are
awarded voting membership after

achieving the required tryout hours
during the semester.

Miss Knight also states that
Smiles is adding another service in
the near future. The organization
plans to accompany Albany public
school students who are interested
on excursions to places of civic in-
terest, These trips shall take place
on legal holidays when school is
not in session.

Smiles also supervises many other
activities for the benefit of children
living in the City of Albany, states
Miss Knight.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1955

Follow The Leaders...

The News wishes to call the attention of
every organization that is facing problems
of leadership and apathy; every class that
is trying to find unity; and every member
of Student Association who believes that
spirit and constructive action are results
of a past era at State College, to the work
accomplished by the Junior class this year.

Among other things, they have origin-
ated a Junior Weekend, plans for a re-
vamped banquet, and a completely new and
different Junior Prom. They are probably
the only class in State College history to
be chided by Myskania because they want-
ed to do too much. The officers inform us
that these new activities and events have
been planned, as any new activity and
event is lenned, pein, to create class
spirit and unity. Their success can be meas-
ured by the response from the class. To
date, class meetings have actually been
crowded; the class as a whole, not just
certain individuals or factions, is working
on Junior projects, and last week, an al-
most unheard of event took place. The class
voted unanimously to commend their lead-
ers for the excellent job they were doing.

It is a remarkable record for two rea-
sons. The annual “Junior Slump” has been
as much of a tradition here as the Rivalry
Sing. And this particular class of ’57 al-
most faded from existence in its Sopho-
more year, due to a supposed “lack of in-
terest.” The rebirth and success of the Jun-
ior class should explode the commonly ac-
cepted myth that there is in all parts of
State College student life, “lack of inter-
est.” We believe that spirit and interest will
always arise under capable, enthusiastic
leadership. The Junior class is fortunate
in having such leadership, and we com-
mend the leaders, and the class as a whole,
for the excellent work they have done this

ear.

" Tonight, not just the Juniors, but the
entire school will have the chance to jour-
ney a short distance to the Circle Inn, The
News advises that if you have not already
done so, that you dust off your formal, or
semi-formal attire and plan to attend. In
addition to seeing the Junior class in ac-
tion, you will probably have the most en-
joyable evening you have had here at State
College, in a long, long time. —D.T.K.

Progress...

In an effort to clear up some of the con-
fusion which surrounds the first week of
school in September when so many fresh-
man receptions are scheduled, and Activ-
ities Day in October, Student Council has
appointed a committee to investigate and
come up with some solutions. Last week
the Improvement of Activities Committee,
composed of three Council members, pre-
sented an excellent plan which, if put into
effect, would solve many problems.

Basically, the plan states that Activities
Day be reorganized as an Activities Week
in which two organizational receptions
would be held each night of the week. The
committee has combined all the organiza-
tions on campus into ten groups in order
to limit the receptions to two each night
for five nights.

For instance, Pedagogue, State College
News, Primer and Press Bureau would be-
come the Publications Group and would
hold a joint reception one evening in the
Upper Lounge of Brubacher while another
group, say the Religious Clubs, would be
receiving freshmen in the Lower Lounge.
Each organization would be entitled to a
reception and would have an equal chance
to present themselves to the freshmen.

This would also eliminate Activities Day
as it stands now—with all the organiza-
tions spending time and money preparing
booths and displays for a pitiful number
of freshmen who do show up. Instead, the
frosh would be given a chance to “sign on
the dotted line” at each of these receptions
and would better understand just what
they are doing. Revamped, Activities Week
would be culminated with the traditional
banner presentation and Sophomore skit
in Page Hall.

This committee has done a commend-
able job and has accomplished something
that has been badly needed for some time.
They are continuing along this line and
are now in the process of reworking the
Social Calendar for next year. It is encour-
aging to see that Student Council is awak-
ening to the many problems caused by
overcrowding, existing in this college and is
attempting to do something about wen.

SANS SATIRE ;

Since its conception, Homecoming Weekend has never been what
could conceivably be considered a success. The responsibility for this
failure, must, of necessity fall upon the student body. This year a greater
homecoming than ever has been planned. The only way it can be a suc-
cess is through our active participation. Hence, for those of you who
have trouble reading between the lines, we would like to issue the fol-

“hood invasion” at Bru has been repulsed, a new wave of marauder:

WE LOVE A PARADE

Speaking of monsters, we have seen a weird preview of things to
come in the near future—tomorrow in fact. It seems that thirteen of
State's familiar faces will be emulating characters from a science fiction
story, and will “float” down Ontario Street with the greatest of ease.
Anyone with an interest in creative ideas and innovations for our school
functions cannot afford to miss our own parade.

QUOTABLE QUOTES

‘A few choice experiences from first semester student teachers

The one whose student, when asked to use “primitive” in a sentence,
told her that the “primitive” was 99 square inches.

The student teacher who, in an effort to stimulate imaginative use
of vocabulary, brought in a twisted hanger and asked her students to
describe it. She got such grand eloquent replies a “Looks like a bent
hanger.” Seeking to chastise the students, she told them they'd never

Myskania: Its Birth And History; College Begins

Thirty-Eight Yea

rs OF Tradition

By THOMAS SMITH '57

One score and eighteen years ago,
Myskania was brought forth upon
this campus—conceived by President
Brubacher, and dedicated to the
proposition that Myskie would take
care of undergraduate life. During
its 38 years of existence, Myskania
has not been engaged in any civil
wars, but has certainly given a new
birth of freedom to State,

In 1917, a Faculty Committee ap-
pointed eleven students to serve as
the first Senior Student Council.
These students chose the name of
Myskania—a secret meaning known
only to its members. Five members
were chosen by the faculty and the
remainder by Myskania itself. The
duties of this group ranged from
governing inter-class contests to ad-
ministering college traditions, Since
this time “Myskie” has inaugurated
many innovations and its member-
ship has been expanded to thirteen.

Let's look at the record. In 1917
Myskania led the first weekly as-
sembly, wrote the Constitution for
Student Association, and provided

ute College News Board and a
News Constitution, In 1918, Rivalry
was Initiated “because the college
needed an unified spirit.” It was
during these years (1918-1923) that
Myskania devoted its time mainly
to college traditions. First we had
the tradition of frosh using the rear
and side doors; then came the Ban-
ner hunt and the ban on frosh
wearing high school insignia, In
1924 the Seniors began wearing caps
and gowns on Moving-Up Day. Also
in this year, with the increased en-
rollment came a drive to campaign
for residence halls, In 1926 Campus
Commission and Debate Council
Were organized, and in 1927 rules
for revoting were
from 1931-1938 saw the inaugura-
tion of Activities Day, a college-
wide Red Cross drive, and the in-
nitiation of discussion groups be-
tween students and faculty for the
purpose of settling student prob-

Members Begin Plans

After a careful tryout period, Karl
A. B, Peterson, Associate Professor
of Music, announces those who were

sful in qualifying for the Col-
Singers. The group is now
planning for a sing at Christmas
time, These are the names of the
students who were accepted

In the First Soprano section are
Pat Alwood, Aileen Cochrane, Sen-
iors; Shirley Canavan, Junior; Jody
Ambrosino, Harrigan, and
Jean ‘Thoma wphomores; and
Birgitta Gottlow, Vivian Clowe, Mu-
riel Barber, Roberta Mullarkey, Pat-
ricia Allien, Ann Crocker, Miriam
Sanderson, freshmen.

‘The Second Soprano xroup is com-
prised of Mary Stowell, Margaret
Hamilton, Margaret Stebbins, Jun-
iors; Mary Bradley, Doris Sterziner,
Sophomores; Claudia Allecock, Dor-
othy Harper, Elizabeth Holbrook,
Barbara Dalton, ‘Taey  Perdaris

unna Cohen, freshmen.

1947 and Myskie left the stage first
followed by the classes in descend-
ing order. The Commons and Cafe-
teria were investigated and improv-
ed by the Thirteen Muses of State.
Between the years 1953-1955, the
following rules were adopted: a quo-
rum of Student Association consti-
tuted those in assembly; no class
president may serve more than two
consecutive terms, and the resign-
ing SA president automatically re-
linquished his seat on Myskania.

Also the following amendment
was proposed by Myskania and ac-
cepted by Student Association: No
member of Myskania, excepting the
Senior class president, may con-
currently be a representative to Stu-
dent Couneil. In 1955 Myskania rul-
ed that all proceeds from the Jazz
Concert would be returned to sur-
plus rather than be used by Inter-
Sorority—Inter - Fraternity Council
for their winter formal.

The most. impressive feature of
Myskania is witnessed around Mov-
ing-Up Day each year. The mem-
bers of the retiring Myskania walk
around the assembly and “tap” the
incoming members. The new mem-
bers of Myskie are then escorted to
the stage by the retiring officers,

Membership to this honorary ju-
diciary group is determined by the
quality of leadership exhibited and
the ability to execute judicial duties.

Initial Planning
For New Units

With the yearly increase of stu-
dent enrollment at State College,
the condition of overcrowding has
reached a point where it is neces-
sary to expand its present facilities,

The administration and the State
University have been working on
the problem. As of now the Univer-
sity Board of Trustees have ap-
proved three new units to be con-
structed at the college,

The first of these badly needed
new buildings will be a new library.
The Legislature last year voted the
necessary funds for designing the
structure. It is assumed that this
year's session will yote the necessary
appropriation for the actual con-
struction, The architect has been
designated and is presently working
on the plans.

Tentative plans for Hawley Li-
brary call for its conversion into a
cafeteria and commons. This. will
not only provide larger accommoda-
tions for these two facilities but it
will also free the area in lower
Husted. This area can then be con-
verted into additional laboratory
space.

The next unit to be erected will
be a Field House, the plans of which
have been drawn for a considerable
period.

Also on the present building ag-
enda is the future construction of
a new Milne School and Department
of Education building.

Russell Endorses

Ohio Governor

Lausche For Democratic Candidacy

By DAVID KENDIG '57

Last week, Georgia's Senator
Richard Russell, an influential con-
servative member of the Democratic
Party, and a candidate for the Dem-
ocratic Presidential nomination in
1952, stated his personal choice for
the position in 1956. Russell stands
behind Frank Lausche, who Is serv-
ing his fourth term as Governor of
Ohio. The possibility that he may
be the “compromise candidate” of
the liberal and conservative wings
of the party merits more than a
passing glance at Lausche's record.
In 1932 he rose from a municipal
judgeship in Cleveland to become
Mayor of the city, From there, de-
spite the opposition of his county's
organization, he achieved the party’s
bid for governor. Elected in 1944,
his attempt at re-election failed,
1946 was a Republican year anyway
you look at it. In 1948 he was re-
turned to office and has never left

Lausche and the Democratic Party
are peculiar bed-fellows, In the past
few years, outside interests have
dominated the party and its centrai
issue has been a negative one, name-
ly to purge the late Senator Robert
Taft from his Senate seat. In the
last attempt to do this, they nom-
inated a State Auditor to do the
job, Joe Ferguson was swamped and
his explanation for the resounding
defeat is somewhat typical of his
insipid character. He said, “The rea-
son I got beaten so bad was that
the Democrats didn't go out and
vote. Of course if they'd voted, I
might have got beaten worse, But
you always have the consolation of
thinking you would have won.” It
is a credit to Lausche's ability that
he did not support Ferguson, indeed
he had deep admiration and respect
for Taft. Lausche had at that time,
and has now, an effective personal
organization which has enabled him
to amass amazing voting power to
overcome both the lack of a strong

party organization and the en-
trenched Republican machine, which
has elected Republican Senators
consistently, both which have little
effect on Lausche. In the latest
election, Lausche swamped Charles
Taft, Bob Taft’s brother, by some
425,000 votes, Lausche has proved to
be a conservative independent, who
frowns on organized labor in  poli-
tics, He was strangely mute during
the last two Democratic Presiden-
tial campaigns.

In this progressive Governor, with
a strong organization from a state
lominated equally by interests, the
Democrats may have their next
President.

| Rowing Reporter |

By JOSEPH SZAREK ‘58

Tuesday evening this reporter at-
tended the Frosh election rally in
Brubacher’s game room, This col-
umn was originally to describe the
enthusiasm shown by the candidates
and voters—there were two cam-
paign posters on the walls and the
number of frosh present was highly
disappointing; this column wa
intended to report the number
and type of questions asked by the
frosh of their candidates—one frosh
asked a question; the rest were ask-
ed by the upperclassmen, It appea:
that the recent upsurge of interest
shown by the frosh in State's ac-
tivities is only superficial if the rally
can be used as evidence

Evidently, from the number of
candidates for office who did not

they want to show that they have
that old class spirit. Some of the
candidates probably had valid rea-
sons for being absent, but certainly
this could not possibly hold true
for the approximate one-third who

is an important part of campaign-
ing for office. Are these absent can-
didates really interested in holding

long and one-half mile wide, There
are 700 acres included with this
pond for the cost of $10,000. The ad-

In keeping with news standards,
the News was rated excellent in
such things as coverage, features,
sports coverage, typography and
makeup. The short news features
are written in the best professional
style, whereas the “Common-Stater’
was warned against using pointless
and non-essential material,

The majority of the physical prop-
erties of the News were considered
excellent. Pictures on page one were
well placed, however, the display
below the fold could be improved.
Pictures could be used more fre-
quently throughout the paper. In
general the typography of the News,
according to the scorebook, is at-
tractive and easy to read.

of Student Council on the technical aspects of the camp.
King told the group that the camp consists of approxim-
ately 700 acres near Warrensburg, N. Y., which is about 75
miles north of Albany. The area the camp encompasses is

undeveloped woodland with

a lake located approximately

in the center. The cost of the campsite in its present con-

dition is $10,000.

Possible uses for the territory were mentioned in the

All Statesmen who are interested

for which the organization was foun-
ded,

those attending, Refreshments con-
sisting of potato chips and coke
will also be served.

station for the Biology department,
recreation, a base for the workings
of Outing Club, a center for a Camp-
ing Education program, a workshop
for the Summer Theater Group, and
with expansion of facilities it could
be used a frosh camp sometime
in the future.

I response to an inquiry as to
the operation of other State Teach-
ers’ College camps Student Council
minutes were read which included a
survey of these units made three
years ago.

Discussion followed on the devel-
opment of the area, It was pointed
out that the cost of erecting build-
ings might be defrayed by using
student and faculty labor, In this
way it was felt that the project
would help to tie the students and
faculty of the college closer together,
The fact was also brought out that
the development of the camp would
not be completed within a short
period of time but rather a slow im-
provement. This means that the
camp could not be used for a fresh
camp immediately, President Col-
lins pointed out, in response to the
suggestion of a mortgage to pay for
the construction of facilities, that
the interest would make it unprofi-
table in the long run,

Following the pointing out of the
fact that the camp is easily access-
ible a straw vote was taken to sam-
ple the opinion of the students pres-
ent. The results of this small group
was almost unanimously 1a favor
of the purchase of the site.
