NOSE, THROAT,

and Accessory Organs not Adversely
Affected by Smoking Chesterfields

FIRST SUCH REPORT EVER PUBLISHED

ABOUT ANY CIGARETTE

Aresponsible consulting organization has
teported the results of a continuing study by a
competent medical specialist and his staff on the
effects of smoking Chesterfield cigarettes.

A group of people from various walks of life

was organized to smoke only Chesterfields. For six

months this group of men and women smoked their
normal amount of Chesterfields— 10 to 40 a day.
45% of the group have smoked Chesterfields con-

tinually from one to thirty years for an average of

10 years each.

and at the end of the six-

months period each smoker was given a thorough

examination, including X-ray pictures, by the
medical specialist and his assistants, The exam-
ination covered the sinuses as well as the nose,

ears and throat.

The medical specialist, after a thorough exam-
ination of every member of the group, stated:
“Tt is my opinion that the ears, nose, throat and
accessory organs of all participating subjects ex-
amined by me were not adversely affected in the
six-months period by smoking the cigarettes

provided.”

The Home Stretch

As the sorority women of State move into the
final week of rushing, the tempo of their activities
quickens as they attempt to win frosh women to
their respective organizations. With bids being is-

sued a month

earlier this year, the pressure is

doubly apparent, both on the frosh women as they
endeavor. to evaluate the attributes of the various
sororities, and on the members themselves as they
attempt to get to know the women of the Class

of '56.

For several years now, sorority rushing regula-
tions have been in a state of change as Inter-
Sorority Council continues its efforts to find a
workable system. The fact that this year’s rules
have evoked complaints is nothing new, nothing
unusual, There will always be those who are hurt
by the application of a rule set up to govern their
rushing activities. However, let’s not lose sight of
the fact that it’s not the rules which make the
rushing atmosphere. It’s the attitude of rushers,
No regulations will control attitudes. —

‘The freshmen women are at present in a state
of concern and confusion, and well they should be,

for the joining

of a sorority can be an important

factor in later college life, especially if the wrong

choice is made.

Sororities must engage in rushing if they wish
their organizations to continue in existence on cam-
pus. We feel that, basically, all sororities would
prefer to rush on a basis of friendship and mutual
interest, rather than for quantity alone, but we
realize that many sororities are forced to look for

members in

houses, Just don’t let numbers come first. Base

Why?

By RUTH DUNN

For nearly four years, I have
heard constant gripes about com-
pulsory assembly, sports (or lack of
them), cut systems, Myskania, pop-
ularity contests, infrequent partici-
pation in any conceivable activity,
“arty” factions, dirty rushing and
strong groups making a conserted
effort to undermine the less strong.
Well, griping is essential, but as yet,
the only thing we've been success-
ful in as a result of the griping is
a small time smear campaign.
Lack of Interest?

One thing appears completely il
logical—very few constructive re-
sults have come from this seeming.
ly exceptional displeasure, The big
question that comes to my mind is
—why 80 little conserted action
about affairs that cause unrest?
The only answer I can find ts lack
of interest and more definitely, lack
of interest in our college life as it
is set up.

The Class of '56 is thought to
have a great deal of spirit, pep, in-
terest, Why, then do as many as
60 freshman women leave campus
each weekend? Why were there only
50 frosh spectators at the rivalry
football game? Why are there so
few treshmen tryouts for organiza-
tions. Since these things have been
evidenced in each freshman class,
the fault, not being peculiar to Just
one class, must be something broad-
er than class—perhaps school.
Calendar, Friendliness?

First, we have a full social cal-
endar, but apparently the social
calendar doesn't include the at-
tractive types of events that will
draw people out. Maybe it’s too full
now and we should allow for more
unorganiz activities, Anyway,

go home on weekends
to this mass migra-
tion would seem to be lack of
friendliness on the part of the up-
per classmen, The sorority rushiny
system would certainly add to this
unfriendly idea, Sure, we're beaming
all over the place till 7 or until
some afternoon from 3 to 5 when
some Greek group is having a sit
to. Why can't you mix with fresh-
men then if they're not at the af-
fair? Tt must be confusing and dis-
heartening to some one eager to
adjust and lead as nearly average a
life at college as he or she did at
home.
Not Enough Variety?

Another answer to our sporadic-
ally attended extra-curricular events
problem might be that not enough
variety is provided, A ski club, ey-
cling group, ty. club might be
some additions. Then too, we have
Activities Day as a facility provided
primarily for freshmen and trans-
fers to join extra-curricular wetivi-
tes
Lack of Information?

On behalf of the organizations,
1 would like to offer this argument
Frosh camp, Orientation, and teas
provide the freshmen with pertinant
{Information on the extra-curricular
MMe of the college. However, this

can’t be all we need if our turnout
is so poor. Perhaps upperclassmen
are at fault for not making their
activities sound attractive enough
to draw in prospective members or
participants. Perhaps Activities Day
is held too soon for prospective sup-
porters to know which activities
they wish to join; however, how are
the frosh to get in that all-impor-
tant year of activity testing and in-
terest centralization if they do not
begin until mid-year or later?

Only about 40% of our students
participate extra-currioularly and
of those, about 6% are leaders, You

form and run everything. That's
cne helluva’n excuse! Still other
ex uses are: ‘We don't have time,”
“why bother?", "This is high school
stuff,”

Picfessional vs. Liberal Arts?

This last remark recurs too often
to ke overlooked. For a number of
years, all through high school, we
hear stories about colleges that dwell
on the social rather than the aca-
demic phase of college life. Natur-
ally, when we arrive, we find that

' college set-up is a far cry from
Curnell, Syracuse, etc, Maybe this
is why we lose interest In our col-
le ¢ life or non-college life, as you
will, Maybe it would be wise to have
women allowed in men's group
houses, to have beer served at fra-

rity houses, to have men in

's roms at apDropriate timers
to have television in women's group
Louses. These things seem orthodox
even if we are a professinal schoo!
and liberal arts school combined.

Towever, we should remember
that as a State supported institu-
tion, there are some ivy league do-
ings that we cannot enjoy.

This article perhaps seems to be
so much gripe! I don't mean it to
be. IT just would like to have an
inkling of an idea as to WHY the
luck of interest or perhaps some-
thing even more basic.

Do They Exist?

Tt is my opinion that these are
some of the problems of our col-
lege community. If there is not suf-
ficient belief that these problems
exist and sufficient interest in sol
ing them, then nothing can
done, But, if there is interest—let's
see it!

A group of interested people is al-
ready anxious to look into these
problems which they believe to exist
However, if they continue to hear
nothing from the student body
they will be forced to rssume that
students do not believe we have any
solvable problems, that they are
satisfied with the existing situations
and to drop the matter. Through
this group, the opportunity for con-
structive griping ts offered once
more. If anyone has an idea or a
partin] answer or is just interested

please, please drop me a note or

take a step in the proverbial right
direction,

ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT

Is someone offering a course in sign language???
It’s a sure bet that it would be a money maker at the
moment, Beginning Sunday and lasting for ten days,
sorority gals will be snubbing (for official reasons
only) you frosh. This is open rushing???? (Somebody
has gotten fouled-up somewhere). But, don't give up
“Greeks,” you can always resort to smoke signals.

LIBERTY, FRATERNITY, EQUALITY

Tt looks as though the movement is on to change
our Student Government and Myskania has bowed
to the will of the masses. Next Tuesday the rapping
of the gavel may mark the beginning of a new era
at State College. Myskania has done a good thing in
trying to bring these criticisms to the foreground, but
we think that they will find few people who would be
willing to back up their criticisms with a little work.
It seems quite evident to us that the main reason
people want to change is that they are too lazy to
go to assembly on Fridays. Thus, the conclusion may
be drawn that those who want a change are those
who don’t care about what is going on regarding
Student Government. Then, when we do change it
will be these same people who are the first to squawk
when things don’t seem to be going right. Therefore,
we say, if we sincerely want to change our govern-
ment, let's reorganize it completely and not add a
few things here and subtract a few there. To those
who would change for the good of the school, we say,
good luck in your endeavors,

One Mani Opinion

Beginning with an Irish tragi-
fantasy directed by Lee Koteh,
Tuesday's one-act plays got off to
a good start. Though the AD stage
is not, it iy true, intended for “star”
performances, we believe that there
is sufficient interest in the varying
quality of individual performances

to justify mentioning them. There-
fore...

Miss Byrne, outstanding through-
out, was especially good at mood
contrast; Miss Stein came forth
with the best dancing we've seen
on State College stage; Miss Shec-
ter gave an uneven but highly prom-
ising performance; while Miss
Knight was adequate for her sup-
porting role. Though characterized
by two exceptional individual per-
formances, those of Misses Byrne
and Stein, the performance as a
whole did not effectively communi-
cate the heightened horror upon
which the play depends; the actors
were not always moving in a com-
mon direction. This failure may be
partly attributed to the play itself
and its steadily lessening appeal for
modern American audiences and
partly to the directing.

Two things troubled us special-
ly: one was an occasional difficulty
with movement, giving a static ef-
fect; and the other was the lack
of real emotion at the climax—we
simply weren't very terrorized, Both
the setting and the lighting are
deserving of special praise,

Janice Smith's play, the second
of the evening, was a British light
comedy ably acted by Herb Saffrom
and Elaine Stryker. As the young
man, Mr, Saffron was generally
good, in spite of his tendency to
be overly conscious of his move-
ment. Miss Stryker, too, was excel-
lent; we find her stage presence
and fine pacing a pleasure to watch,
Both players, however, were a lit-
tle weak on volume.

This play achieved quite well
what the other did less successful-
ly—unity of effect.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1952

Sain’ With Melan Hathaway Cuts AAPA, Beats KB For Final Spot;
APA, Potter Play Second Time

By DOTTIE MEHAN

Co-managers of hockey, Zo Ann
Laurie and Marilyn Wittschen,
have picked a team to go on a play-
day at Green Mountain Junior Col-
Jege in Vermont tomorrow. Besides
ld stand-bys, Edie Titterton, Buz-
tie and Marilyn Burke, Donna
‘Hughes, and .Aliki Apostilides, they
have selected Edna Standley. Bea
Englehart (a frosh), Lorraine Voe-
pel, Joan Burguere (another fresh-
man), and Ann Vigilante.

To turn to another sport, last
Wednesday night's volleyball games
proved to be exciting, fast-moving,
and skillfully played matches. The
first contest between Chi Sig and
Pierce B got off to a slow start, but
picked up considerably in tempo as
the game progressed.

Kay Oberst stood out as the star
of the winning Chi Sig team with
her long, powerful serve, especially
notable in a slight girl. On the other
side of the net, Anna Wong, play-
ing for Pierce, scored a goodly num-
ber of points with an unusual one-
handed volley.

Beta Zeta and Kappa Delta play-
ed a spirited game that was a real
pleasure to watch. BZ's reliables,
Marge Liddell, Angie Kavanaugh,
and Gladys Smith led their team
to two fairly easy victories.

Two teams composed mostly of
freshmen, Brubacher and Pierce A,
faced each other for the third game
of the evening. We thought that
this match was the best played of
the three, because of the long vol-
leys and tricky, close-to-the-net re-
turns. Pierce took the first two
games; the first, 13-3, and the sec-
ond, 8-7,

Varsity;JV Team
Remains Intact

Coach Merlin Hathaway has made —

APA Team Remai

the Varsity Basketball cut and is in
the process of working his eleven-
man squad into shape for a possible
opening game November 25 against
the Alumni, Hathaway has been
drilling the team on plays in an
attempt to develop teamwork and
coordination among the players.

Varsity Experienced

The Varsity is made up of seven
returnees from last year's team and
four newcomers. Those who have
had at least a year’s experience on
the State Varsity are Captain Bob
Tabor, Walker, McDonald, Prout,
Allassio, Centra, and Zongrone. The
new members, Krug, Gillespie, Tel-
fer, and LaRoe, have all had plenty
of experience on other teams and
furnish rebounding power to the
State team,

4.Y. To Be Cut

There are still about fifteen can-
didates out for the Junior Varsity
team. Hathaway will probably post
the J.V. cut list next week. This
team will be composed of twelve
men, including about six or seven
frosh. Many veterans of last year's
Junior Varsity are returning to fight
for their positions. Smith, DeMi-
chiell, McKay, Sage, and Combs
have the experience of a year's play
to give them an advantage over the
frosh candidates.

Contrary to a statement in last
week's News, Joe Garcia is not

sisted by John McCormick ‘54, is
coaching them.

Shumanski Bowls

The APA five continued to roll
along in League A of the Men's
Intramural Bowling, while SLS and
Patter Club pulled into a first place
tie and the K-Bobbles dropped to
third place in the B League stand-
ings in the action at the Rice Bowl-
ing Alleys on Tuesday afternoon.

APA had little trouble in extend-
ing their unbeaten skein as they
rolled over the Rousers 2207-1886.
Ken Rutley and Bob Sinkeldam
were high for the APA aggregation
with 482 and 465 respectively. Tom
Shumanski, with a triple of 505,
led Thurlow Hall to a 2020-1950 vic-
tory over Kappa Beta. Summit
House, who has yet to gain a win,
fcrfeited to Van Derzee.

Summit House Withdraws

Tuesday, after the forfeit, Sum-
mit House withdrew from the lea-
fue. Bowling manager Ralph Moot

4, announced that since no team
can be formed at this late date, a
meeting would be held early next
week to decide what to do about
the points won from Summit by
Van Derzee, Thurlow and the Rous-
c.s, It is thought that the points
tarnered by these three teams will
be aeducted from their total and
the rest of the League A season will
be played out with only five teams.
SLS And Potter Tie For Lead

High Triple, 505

In the B League battles, SLS
knocked off the K-Bobbles 2128-
1851 with Carmen Corsi rolling a
501 for the winners. Potter, led by
Giammatteo with 457, walked over
the Finks 2023-1679. In the final
match, Wilson and McCormick
helped the Misfits eke out a win
over the Commuters 2057-2024,
Shumanski’s 505 Is High Triple

Tom Shumanski rolled the high
triple for the week with 505 and
Carmen Corsi was right behind with
501. Carrall Judd and Ken Rutley
had the high singles with 203 and
198 respectively,

Thus far this season, Joe Duran
of Van Derzee holds the high aver-
age for League B with 170. Mean-
while, Carmen Corsi of SLS is top
man in A League as he boasts a 167.

ns Undefeated; Scoreless Tie

Again Invades
League Games

APA gained entrance to the IM
football finals last Thursday by
squeezing out a 7 to 6 victory over
KB. The game was a hard-fought
battle all the way. In the first pe-
rlod APA took a 7-0 lead as Bob
Hausner scored from the five-yard
line on a quarterback sneak, and
then passed to Fox for the extra
point.

Early in the second half, Abel
Blattman hit Bob Sturm with a spot
pass in the end zone for six points.
ihe attempt for the extra point was
blocked and the rest of the game
was played around the mid-field
str.pe, as neither team could start
another scoring drive. KB was the
first team to score on the fine APA
defense all season.

APA, EEP Play Scoreless Tie

Again on Monday the scoreless tie
“bug” hit the IM football loop. APA
and Potter Club battled to a score-
less deadlock in what should have
been the final game of the year
Neither team could dent the de-
fense of the other. The forward
walls of each team played terrific
games, while the highy-touted back-
field combinations looked harmless.
Both APA and EEP had scoring op-
portunities but neither could capit-
alize on them.

A thrilling 3-0 victory by State
over Geneseo brong':: auwn the
curtain on ti soccer season for
this year and added to the already
impressive record compiea hy the
Peds. In winning State notched
their sixth victory of the season,
and fifth straight at home, as
against only four defeats. The ma-
jor part of the offense and defense
were supplied by only two men.
Goalie Telfer posted his third
shutout of the campaign, while Al
Cannon, repeating George Wood's
feat of the previous week, booted
home all three of State's goals.

Garcia Moulds Winning Team
Under Joe Garcia's great coach-
ing, State continued their yearly
rise as a soccer power. This year's
record alone is an improvement.
Also Coach Garcia was forced to
start the current season minus five
of last year’s front line men. But
Garcia came up with some new tal-

ent to balance the veterans remain-
ing from last year and by mid-
season had moulded a winning
squad

Freshmen Add Strength

Jack Hughes, a freshman, filled
one of the fullback positions very
capably and was a key man in
State's defense all year. Little
“Rebel” Hockmuth, another frosh,
took over a position on State's front
line and sparked them on offense
throughout the year, until injured
in the Union contest. Don Snyder,
also a frosh, filled in as a front line
reserve and many times he proved
to form a winning combination.
Henry Nadig and Gerry Murray,
freshmen, and Don Canonica, Soph-
omore, didn't see much action this
year, but gained the experience
which will benefit. them in win-
ning @ starting berth next year
Cannon Leading Scorer

State booters scored a total of 23

goals for the season while their
opposition could only muster a to-
lal of 16 goals. Ar Canrer Jad the

offense with 7 goals, while Tom

Communications

To the Editor:

I am the individual who wrove
the so called slanderous remarks
about Forum in the COMMON
STATDR. Soapbox arrived at their
conclusion by maintaining that
there are 1301 students In our stu-
dent body. The Registrar reports
that the enrollmtnt for 1952-53 is
1606 students including the grads
and special students. Here is where,
I believe, our misunderstanding lies,
for I agree with the Registrar. Ap-
parently, Soapbox disregarded the
votes of transfers. grads, and all
those who do not have assembly
seats.

The above letter states that equa’
space was given to both parties. I
noticed that Mr. Stephenson’s pic-
ture (one that was noticeable from
more than a two feet distance) went
up on October 27 and vanished the
next day. Regardless of the fact
that a student may have removed
this poster, Forum, being “politic-
ally unbiased” should have replaced
it immediately.

In conclusion, I feel that the
statements I made in the COMMON
STATER still stand in that they
were arrived at through careful
consideration and truth, Therefore,
I do not feel that I drew an ignor-
ant conclusion and above all I did
not deliberately state any fatse-
hood.

I realize the privilege I have by
writing this column and express-
ing opinions and because of th's
opportunity, I have never enter-
talned for a moment any thoughts
of untruths. When I do, I feel I
should no longer be placed in such
a position.
