STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1946

eee

Too Little, Too Like.

The guiding principle for all action around State
seems to be this—wait until things go beyond the
point of endurance and then do something inade-
quate about it.

Yes, we have something definite in mind. Any-
one who has classes on the second or third floor of
Richardson has undoubtedly encountered this sit-
uation: when the bell rings to end classes, dozens
of people immediately fill the stairway and halls
in a desperate attempt to reach first floor. In the
meantime, an equal number are struggling to get
up the same stairs, and the daily result is an al-
most complete deadlock. It takes anywhere from
three to seven minutes to travel only a few yards,
and plenty of people have been late for classes be-
cause of this,

What has been done about the problem? To date,
the only tangible sign of action is a lurid poster
imploring students to refrain from conversation
or loitering while using the stairway. It is hardly
possible that those responsible for ‘such problems
expect one poster to do a job that will require the
active and constant participation of several peo-

ple.

Most of the congestion is not caused by unthink-
ing individuals who delight in exchanging social
repartee on the stairs, It results from the stu-
pendously simple fact that too many students are
required to use the stairway at the same time—
,nothing more and nothing less.

Why can’t some arrangement be made to stagger
dismissal time, allowing those who have classes on
third floor to leave a few minutes early so they
have at least a fighting chance of getting down.
Rumor has it that the faculty does not approve of
such an arrangement, but the slight inconvenience
should be more than justified by the relief it would
afford. And why not force those going to class
to wait until the first wave has descended the
stairs before they start up? They would still have
plenty of time to get to class and wouldn’t be ag-
gravating a hectic situation.

The next suggestion will sound high-schoolish,
but it is necessary, Members of Campus Commis-
sion should be on the spot to see that regulations
are observed, and they must be given sufficient
power to punish offenders, There are some who
claim that hall monitors are not needed at the
college level, but just reflect on the Friday morning
melee in Page and you will realize that very few
march out “in orderly fashion” unless someone is
there to force them to do so.

Just one final word, In spite of the efforts of
Campus Commission to clear out lower Draper,
there are still a few individuals in the idiot cata-
gory who insist on holding prolonged conversations
while standing between the stamp booth and the
entrance to the women's locker room. ‘These groups
congregate every morning in spite of everyone's ef-
forts, so this is in the nature of an appeal—another
appeal, that is—to carry on social contacts else-

The Drama Cometh

hy Lube Zilles

The poster art of State Collegeaptly stuffed between the time it
has been trying for the last weektook us to get seated and the inter-
to impress us with the imminent re-mission. It was characterized by

turn of Advanced Dramatics, which
during the wartime period of aus-
terity was not even rationed to us
but was completely taken away—
something which, we all agree,
amounted to pretty close a hard-
ship, Therefore, the innermost
cockles of our hearts were warmed
by this news, and the culture-con-
scious among us were thrown into
@ state of agogness while waiting.

Tuesday night before the eager
throngs of students who were sa-
crificing precious study time for art
or simple amusement at least, who
were filled with the inexpressible
anticipation that fills inveterate
theater-goers as the curtain rises
tantalizingly, a farce by Dell and
4 drama by Collins were enacted.

Among the hordes of these people
was your critic, who, according to
the conception of those sophisticates
who memorize the most devastating
witticisms of a D. Parker or a Eu-
gene Field, should be able to ridi-
cule brilliantly or annihilate with
& barbed epithet. However, we—if
I may use the royal plural—decided
to be kind.

First, a farce by Dell. Farce in
the original French means a “stuf-
fing”. Miss Dell's production was

dialogue made sluggish by the
clumsy falsification of the British
accent, the garbling and merciless
mouthing of the role of the poet
which lends itself to overplaying and
impassioned burlesque, and the awk-
ward use of canned sound effects
uncleverly introduced.

Next we had the divertisement
during the intermission, which was
filled with the clear and resonant
voices of the Snows as they gave us
4 pleasant tableau of marital bliss,

Lastly, we had a drama by Col-
lins, which State College magnifi-
cently mis-interpreted as a farce,
The setting resembled an Army bar-
racks more than the hold of a ship.
After the initial well-built up sus-
pense the play staggered on, handi-
capped by disjointed dialogue and
the stage-consciousness of the act-
ors, The denouncement—long an-
ticipated—was received in uncom-
fortable, writhing silence; some
young girls in the balcony didn’t
know whether to giggle or to shed
furtive, maudlin tears,

‘To sum up the evening: Advanced
Dramatics is a misnomer and mis-
leading; a more applicable term
would be: “Advanced Theatrics.”

Common-Staten

The Common-Stater is given the widest latitude as author of this

column, although his viewpoints do. not necessarily reflect those of the

State College News,

This morning's assembly shall de-
cide if the student body wishes to
third its surplus fund by an appro-
priation of one thousand dollars for
the Pedagogue. In past years, the
Ped has lost most of its value by not
being in the hands of the student
body until well after the close of
the school year,

If Ped is given this extra bit of
change, it should be with the stip-
ulation that the book be distributed
sometime during the spring semes-
ter, It is understandable that there
is a lot of work to be done on such a
project, but it should also be realized
that there remains many months in
which to do it and get the Ped out
on time,

Nor should this increase in ap-
propriation set a precedent. In past
years, certain emergencies have
arisen such as hospitalization from
injuries sustained in intra-mural
sports, etc. for which the surplus
fund was tapped. It seems advisable
that requests for disbursements
from the surplus be kept to a mini-
mum, and If any organization is un-
able to meet thelr budget with the
allotment given them, that those or-
ganizations elther cease functioning,

or rely on a tax on its participants

for existence,

see

Watch for Primer to ask for an
additional two hundred dollars in
order to publish twice, If today's ap-
propriation 1s granted.

An interesting note is that last
week's affirmative vote for a hun-
dred and a half to purchase a new
vic for the Commons was not a vote
to purchase It, but rather a vote of
confidence for having done tt, al-
tho few knew it. ‘The vic and PA
system was purchased on ‘Thursday
and voted for on Friday, Hmmph!!
Let's not snow the public lke that,
or resentment might prove costly in
such future operations,

ee

Student board of finance wishes it
known that veterans’ wives can pur-

chase the ticket for admittance to
all school functions covered by stu-
dent tax for three dollars, the same
price paid by members of the fa-
culty. Seems there has been some
misunderstanding about wives being
admitted on vets tix, which is not
the case.

Contrary to the Com-Stat, the
St. Mary's housing project is now
functioning. One Siena student lives
there, as well as a few non-student
vets. Any student with a family who
Js in distress should immediately
contact the Dean about it, sald dis-
tress manifesting itself in one of two
ways: elther a student with wife
& child living in insufficient quart-
ers, or a student who is separated
from his family,

COURSE NO. IV—THE WORLD AND POPPY SEEDS

Mrs. Caraway sat at the little pink table in the
breakfast nook and ate poppy seeds, She had dis-
covered, years ago, that this was the best way for
her to keep calm, Whenever something distressing
came up, she went into the kitchen, reached for
the lavender spice bowl, spilled a few of the little
black dots into a saucer, and sat down. Some People
counted to ten when they were upset; Mrs, Caraway
ate poppy seeds,

Mr. Caraway sat in his favorite chair in the living
room, spread the evening newspaper out across his
knees, raised his pencil intelligently, and did the
crossword puzzle. The political scene was beginning
to give him a headache too.

Mrs. Caraway, now calmed, cleaned off the saucer
and put it back into the cabinet. Then she walked in-
to the living room, picked up the “Newsweek” maga-
zine and tried again. The Ladies’ Club was sponsor-
ing an attractive Man speaker on Be Informed to-
morrow night, and after the lecture there was to
be an informal discussion. Mrs. Caraway, who wasn't
quite as informed as she ought to be, had been spend-
ing the evening reading “The New York Times,” “Life,”
and “Newsweek” and pondering deeply over the Prob-
lems. That was where the headache came in—the In.
ternational Situation was so complicated, and Mrs.
Caraway was so confused. That is why she ate the
Poppy seeds, Now, her mind settled more, she picked
up the magazine and started all over again. Mrs,
Caraway was a little sorry she hadn't been keeping
up with her reading lately—there was so much she
had been missing...

Now the Security Council thing was what confused
her most of all. Mrs, Caraway couldn’t understand
what the trouble was—wasn’t the war over? What
were all those men arguing about anyway? The other
night, she had heard a radio commentator explain
that there were differences of opinion as to how cer-
tain problems should be dealt with, and that a little
compromise was ni

thinking up
to answer.

Mrs, Caraway now turned to More About the UNO
on Page 10, Well, they were going to have the part
called Assembly at the site of the New York World's
Fair. That was nice; Mr, Caraway had been afraid
they might be considering their little town as a pos-
sible location—and Westchester County was much too
Pretty a place to have a lot of foreigners running
around in,

The pages on Strikes, Mrs, Caraway overlooked
completely (as she didn’t approve of them in the
first place.)

The meat situation, however, made Mrs. Caraway
happy. All those vegetables had been endangering her
and Mr. Caraway’s health, she was sure. This would be
better—and wasn't the President silly to worry about
@ little thing lke prices going up? Hadn't he ever
heard of the Law of Supply and Demand? Mrs. Cara-
way couldn't remember what year that Law had been
passed, but she had heard Mr, Caraway talking about
ne other night, so she figured it was still In opera-

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1046

RIVALRY GAMES TO OPEN CA

Originate Annual
Event To Provide
Sports Program

Crown Former Queens

With Autumn Leaves

Campus Day history begins way
back on Saturday, October 23, 1920,
(before most of us were born). As
indicated in the STATE COLLEGE
NEWS files, the original purpose of
Campus Day was to provide a day
of sport early in the college year.

The first Campus Day, under
the direction of the Physical
Education Club, featured inter-class
competition, Juntor-freshman teams
vs. Senior-Sophomore teams. Exer-
cises commenced at 2:30 P. M. with
the annual cross-country run for
men. The remainder of the program
consisted of obstacle races, tug-o'-
war, potato race, soccer game, and
even the faculty chipped in with a
sack race. At 5 P. M. there was an
inter-class basketball game at Al-
bany High School

Hold Basket Lunch

Following the game a basket lunch
was held at the college. At 7 in the
evening a sing was held which was
supposed to be the most exciting
event of the entire day. A dance
after the sing completed the days
activities.

On November 12, 1921, Campus
Day II, the tradition of Campus
Day became official by order of
Myskania and with the unanimous
approval of the students. It became
the official day for interclass rivalry.
Rusk First Queen

Campus Day III, October 28, 1922,
initiated the crowning of Campus
Day Queen with the coronation of
Queen-Ethel Rusk. Queen Ethel
made her entrance followed by five
attendants dressed in long white

with girdles and Greek head

sses of their class colors, A

crown of autumn leaves was placed
on the head of the queen.

Although in those yester-years,
Campus Day was mainly a day for
sports and field events, today Cam-
pus Day is one of the most import-
ant days of the College year, the
crowning of a Campus Queen play-
ing no small part. One of the most
colorful honors which can be be-
stowed upon a girl at State is for
her classmates to choose her above
all State girls as the most popular
and the most beautiful. The Banner
Hunt and Sophomore-freshman ri-
valry field events play an important
part in Campus Day program.

Another tradition, none the less
important because it is not official
is the “Welcome Home” which the
college extends to its grad students
who come back for this day.

HARLAND

With the news of last week that
the first of State's fraternities had
returned to our campus it is inter-
esting to note that fraternities are
also reorganizing on other camp-
uses where they had been discon-
tinued during the war, At Cortland
Delta Kappa fraternity has taken
over one of the residence halls there,
initiating the nearly thirty residents
of the house Into the fraternity.
With only six former members as a
nucleus the group has already come
to the fore as a leading college or-
ganization once again. Inter-fra-
ternity councils are being reorgan-
ized, and inter-fraternity balls are
among the plans for the coming
year with rushing, pledging, and in-
itiations back again.

Opportunity to do battle in a

Judges and attempt to maintain some
semblance of order in the scramble,

‘Athletic events in the morning
will open the traditional rivalry,
There will be races of every variety,
old clothes, three-legged, straight
running, and for those who simply
can't do anything else a special race
is offered—the sack,

Begin Hunt

After the combatants have re-
newed their energy with lunch the
Banner Hunt will begin. The banner
is the symbol of inter-class rivalry,
and the Devils and Jays will use all
their cunning and guile in hiding
their banners and all the brawn they
can muster in defending the hiding
place. Because Stygian gloom will
enfold the class which doesn’t hang
on to its banner, both groups are
planning their strategy with the ut-
most caution, As in former banner
hunts Myskania will be on the look-
out for those carrying weapons cal-
culated to inflict bodily injury.

The athletic events and banner

ment on Campus Day, In the eve-

mind—Who will the Campus Queen

chosen on the basis of beauty and

with tradition, Queen Slackie, who
reigned last year, will crown this

‘49-'50 Rival

ry Pushball Game

Featured On Page Field Today

Sophs Experience
May Turn Tide

The two rivalry classes will field
ten men each this afternoon when
the pushball game is held at 4:30
on Page Field.

The Sophs have the edge as there
are about eight men who played
here in previous years. Bob Mer-
ritt, '49, one of these men, is cap-
tain of the Soph team. Ben Jack-
son is in charge of '50’s aggregation,

When the last rivalry pushball
game was held in the fall of 1942,
the frosh defeated the Sophs. These
men, Kinn, Monroe, Merritt, Bibi-
ano, Powell, Amyot, Wilcox and
Howarth, now members of the '49
team, were members of the winning
group.

Frosh Spirit

Even though the Sophs have the
experience, the frosh have the spirit
and that “do or die” air that was
evidenced in the recent football
contest. According to the frosh
captain, Jackson, “the team will be
fighting for those three points to
keep them in the lead.” At least
one-half of the freshman team is
composed of veterans, namely Lang,
Trop, Borten, King, Fersh, and
Margolin, whose weight may be the
deciding factor for the Class of ‘50,

Frank Woodworth and William
Marsland, Seniors, Chairman of riv-
alry and President of MAA respec-
tively, have released the following
rules for the pushball contest,

Avant la guerre there existed on
the State College campus an organ-
ization known as Epsilon Tau Ome-
ga. It was in the form of a service
fraternity composed of fellows who
had previously had Scouting ex-
perience, The main purpose of this
club was to promote hiking and
camping as regular extra-curricular
activities, The only possible objec-
tion to this organization was that
{t was selective and limited in mem-
bership, Consequently, it has been
recommended that this club be in-
corporated into MAA as an outing
club, We heartily endorse this pro-
posal and we feel that many more
men could profit by this plan than
was previously possible, Also there
1s a possibility that MAA and WAA
could combine thelr camping efforts
~under proper supervision, that is.

Today some of the former Epsilon
Tau Omega members are starting
the ball to roll by embarking on a
week-end camping venture in ¢ho
Berkshire Hills, This trip will start
late this afternoon and will end
Sunday night. The group will take
the train to Chatham and then will
hike six miles up Into the hills to a
lodge whioh 1s owned by 1 man who
generously permits its use by State
College campers. We are assured
that the cooking, under the direo-
tion of Butch Walker, will be copea~
thetic, At any rate, this venture
ig a step in the right direction and
we are sure that It will be followed
by many more trips of this sort and
including more fellows than Is pos-
sible at this time.

WAA Council
Plans Hayride;
Forms Council

Women's Athletic Association
Council held its second meeting of
the year last Saturday, October 19.
Plans were drawn up for a hayride
and a new intramural WAA Coun-
cil.

The annual hayride is scheduled
for Friday, November 1. Bev Sittig,
‘49, Chairman of the event, has an-
nounced that all who are interested
are to meet in school and then pro-
ceed to Western Ave. where the
“hay" (it's not definile what type
of vehicle the hay will be in) will
be waiting. After the ride there
will be entertainment and “eats”
in the gym,

Something New

In order to create more Interest
and activity in all sports an latra-
mural council has been formed com-
posed of all sport captains and
headed by members of Honor Coun-
cll who are not President of WAA.
Betty Ann Margot, '47, ts chairman
of the Intramural council since she
and Edna Sweeney, '47, are the only

Grads Down Sayles

Ramblers Defeat Finks

Long runs, bulls-eye passes and
Good blocking featured improved
play in intramural league games
this week. The Grads copped two
games and the Ramblers one. The
Sayles Gentlemen-VanDerzee game
was called with five minutes left to
be played.

With Bob Sullivan hitting his re-
celvers with bullet passes, the
Grads romped to their first league
win Monday with a 19-0 win over
the Raiders, The Grads scored
early in the first period and never
lost the lead.

Darkness intervened in the other
Monday contest before the Sayles
Gentlemen-VanDerzee game could
be completed. VanDerzee led at
the time. The game will be com-
pleted Monday.

Ramblers Edge Finks

The long-awaited, much-discussed
Rambler-Fink match came off Tues-
day with the Ramblers on the long
end of an (18-13) score. Displaying
the classy passing attack and tight
defense which has kept them unde-
feated in six league games, the
Ramblers eked out a one-touchdown
win over a stubborn Fink team that
refused to be brushed aside, Taking
the kick-off, the Ramblers scored
quickly on an end run by “Red”
Evans. Several plays later Hansen
snared an Evans pass in the Fink
end-zone for the second Rambler
score, The Finks bounced right
back to tally on a Gipp-to-Olived
aerial, Second-half play was high-
lighted by “Tuck” Tucker’s snare
of a blocked pass and a thirty yard
run to pay-dirt. The Ramblers end-
ed the scoring when Evans scored
from the three, Brilliant punting
by Gipp and Evans for their respec-
tive teams kept both teams from
further scoring,

Grads Score

With Hal Weber and Bob Sullivan
engaging in a Pitching duel, the
Grads edged by the Sayles Gentle-
men in the other Tuesday game. The
Grads clicked for a tight victory,
winning (14-13), Walt Schick and
J. Zanchelli grabbed Weber’s heaves
to keep the Gentlemen in the run-
ning in the slam-bang contest. The
Grads scored once when Howie
Lynch snared a Sullivan heave, and
agaln when they shook loose ‘their
halfback after driving to the Gen-
Uemen's fifteen. The Grads con-
verted both their scores, and the
second extra point provided the
margin of victory.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS,

FRIDAY, OCTOBER.25, 1946

Communications

To the Editor:

I would like to answer the letter
in which Mr, Collins has taken issue
with me over the question of a vet-
erans’ organization at State Col-
lege. Since the publication of my
letter, an unsuccessful attempt has
been made to establish just such an
organization. This attempt suffer-
ed a moral setback when a majority
of the veterans present at that
meeting refused to even consider
such a proposal. Many of them
were frightened off by the radical
outbursts of a few. It is not a trib-
ute to the spirit of Democracy at
State College that these men did
not remain to help steer this group
into the path of moderation where
its energies could have been well
directed,

A great part of the resentment
came from those who felt that such
an organization would serve to de-
stroy the wealth of tradition pre-
served at this school. Others, with
more selfish intent, were afraid that
a veterans’ organization would tend
to upset the political balance so
firmly established on the campus,
Both of these beliefs are extremely
fallacious. After due reconsidera-
tion, I would like to withdraw the
suggestion that such a group have
representation on the student coun-
cil.

Mr. Collins has attacked this
movement as being a_ separatist
movement. He has said, “that it
runs the risk of becoming an asso-
ciation for the promotion of the
mutual benefits of its members,” I
must confess, in all honesty, that
this statement is true not only of
this organization but every other
organization in school. I suggest
that Mr. Collins put down his Edu-
cation textbook long enough to read
Kornhauser and the seven motives
that he has advanced for the ex-
planation of man’s tendencies to-
ward organization. People do not
organize for negative purposes but
for the positive expression of mutual
interests.

Mr. Collins prematurely rejoices
in the absence of the fraternities at
State College. We can all agree, I
am certain, that fraternities are at
least as separatist as a veterans’
organization would be, and yet I
hear no voices raised in loud pro-
test at their return.

To Mr. Collins’ query as to the
interests of the veterans as a group,
I can only say that he has wilfully
distorted my thought pattern. The
interests of veterans are the inter-
ests of society as a whole. I do not
elect to use the discharge emblem
as a distinguishing badge. Society
has designated me a veteran and I
am only adjusting myself to an ex-
istent situation,

I would like to suggest an alter-
nate plan of organization. I recom-
mend the election of a council, with
no formal organization behind it,
to serve as a laison between the
fellows and the administration and
also to serve as a medium of dis-
pensing information, This group
would never be empowered to place
the inter of the veterans above
that of the entire student body. A
second alternative would be the for-
mation of a completely partisan

Harvey Announces

New Residence Rule

‘47, President of
has announced
hour:

Mary Harvey,
Residence Council,
new regulations concerning
for women,

The new rules are as follows:

I. Alumnae or visitors, visiting a
group house, will ha the latest
hour prevailing at that group house
at the time of their visit.

A. Students who are out late with
Alumnae will be reported to Judicial
Board immediately

II, All students are allowed one
half hour after all civic and school
activities to return to their group
house, The official closing time will
be posted on Dean Stoke's bulletin
board on the morning after the
event,

To clarify the second part of the
rule, it is up to the individual stu-
dent to get to her group house one
half hour after the closing of func-
tions. The Administration will check
on the time of completion of the
affairs and the official time for be-
ing back at the group houses will be
posted on the bulletin board.

And to the man who raised the
question, “what are the problems of
veterans?” I can only say in re-
sponse, “What are the problems of
Mankind?”

Martin Sultan, 49.

To the Editor:

I cannot rejoice, as some men at
State do, over the reappearance of
fraternities. It would mean that I
would be forced to drop a concept
of collegiate democracy that was
formed over three thought-filled
years.

Such organized social groups,
which have proved far from an in-
nocuous influence in previous years,
seem to have little reason for exis-
tance in this era of the new Mys-
kania, Inter-Group Council, and the
strong feeling against secret or-
ganizations that has surged back
and forth across the campus during
wartime.

I have known a State in which
the men were not labled by Greek
letters, or were labeled as not pos-
sessing fraternity connections,
have known a time when the States-
men, which, I believe, still admits
any man wishes to join, seemed to
satisfy the need for an all-male so-
cial group,

It may be that reorganized frat-
ernities will not reinstate, which ap-
pears to me, a barbaric routine for
pledges. It may be that with the
reappearance of fraternities, the
quiet bookworm, the shy newcomer,
the socially unadapted man will be
ferrited out and set on the path of
proper development. I don't doubt
but that the men who really need a
more extensive social life have been
neglected by the fraternities in the
past. And could it be possible that
college politics this time will not be
a football kicked around by a few
tightly organized groups? Frankly,
I think that some men wish merely
to relive a period of their lives heed-
less of certain changes that the war
has brought to the campus.

If these changes were proving a
detriment to the college, they might
have some justification. But is it
wrong to unite the student body by
removing artificial, man-made la-
bels? Is it wrong to attempt to
give each person here an equal
chance for social as well as intellec-
tual development? Is it not wrong
to limit a student's acquaintances to
those he or she has made in the
freshman year?

If we are to be teachers, we will
undoubtedly deal with many differ-
ent types of people. If as under-
graduates we seal ourselves into one
group, I feel we have done some-
thing that really defeats a phase of
our training.

Naturally, Iam open to arguments
from the other side,

Martin Stewart, "47.

Martin Displays
Water Colors
In Draper Hall

Water color sketches by Grace
Martin, instructor of art, are on dis-
play in Room 207, Draper Hall. The
exhibit, sponsored by the art de-
partment, will be held through No-
vember 1,

The number of pictures exhibited
totals 22, including a few detailed
pencil sketches, Miss Martin left
Chicago and went to Spokane,
Washington with one of her friends
in August of the summer of 1946. It
was during that time that the pic-
tures were painted, averaging about
two a day.

Miss Martin has studied at the
University of Chicago, the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, the University
of Vienna and the Art Institute in
Chicago, At the present time, she is
a member of the Albany Artists
Group.

The Washington Park Bridge is
sketched twice; once at noon and
again at sunset. Miss Martin re-
marks that the nice part about
painting in the park is that there's
always someone who comes along
and says, “Cheez! Artists!” The
homes, churches, and bridges beside
the Hudson river and the children’s
pool on the Swan Street Hill are
pictured exactly in two other sketch-
es of Albany. In addition to these,
there are paintings of the Coulee
Dam, Mt. Grinnell, a back yard in
Cheney, Washington, wheat fields,
Chapman Lake, Washington, and
even the two bridges near Lucerne,
New York.

The pictures of the west are in
purple, gold and black while those
of the east are predominantly green,
Miss Martin explained that she en-
joyed the contrast of colors.

Student Union Gains As Frosh
“Shell Out” On Activities Day

A whirl of frosh swamped the
Commons last Saturday afternoon
only to be once again traditionally
stripped of nickels and dimes by
their rival class, the “redcaps" of

total of 51.

One of the biggest farces of all
was the Photo studio in the balcony
with Cumera-woman Catherine Don-
nelly on duty. In only fifteen min-
utes eleven frosh posed with their
prettiest smiles before an imaginary
birdie. A blue Kodak standing on a
tripod, covered with a black Navy
kerchief and containing no film
completed the equipment.

Campus Chest did a booming busi-
ness as the frosh unsuspectingly
contributed towards expenses for
Campus Day janitor service, cor-

sages for the Campus Queen and at-
tendants, and for the lettering of
the Campus Day cup.

According to Sophomore statistics
the men of '50 are really enger-beay-
ers along the date line, Raffle tick-
cts sold in the Commons for Sunday

men more than the women,

However, one frosh girl was heard
confidentially asking a Sophomore,
"Gee, do you think I could have a

Freshmen Fellows Free Fifty
From Fierce Foe By Forcé

Cheering and yelling galore
could be heard last Wednesday
night in Draper. It’s dangerous
to interrupt frosh skit practice,

While the freshmen were in
Room 206, Draper Hall, a few
Soph girls were “minding their
own business” just outside the
door. With discovery came the
not! The frosh men fostered
the idea that if the Sophs
couldn't go peacefully, there was
no Jaw against removing them
by brute force. Agnes McIntyre,
‘49, added fuel to the fire by
asking why they didn’t try it.
Dolores Kloster, '49, came down
the stairs feet first, her mouth
stuffed with her own bandana.
Frances Flanagan, ’49, was more
outraged over the loss of her
shoe and sock than the rough
treatment,

Just as a News reporter be-
gan to question Beverly Sittig,
'49, a mob of men dashed back,
threw her over their shoulders
and out the door she went!

Pedagogue Asks

Budget Increase

$1000 Will Lessen
Deficit, Says Cavanaugh

In Assembly last week Jean Ca-
vanaugh, '47, business manager of
the Pedagogue, introduced a motion
asking that $800 be given to Peda-
gogue from the Surplus Fund. Ac-
cording to Miss Cavanaugh the In-
creased cost of producing the Ped-
agogue made ther usual allotment
of $2500 insufficient.

After introducing the motion,
Miss Cavanaugh explained that the
increase is necessary becctse of
the rising cost of labor and mater-
ials, additional copies, increased
size due to greater number of Sen-
iors.

In the discussion following, Miss
Cavanaugh said, “If this money is
not taken from the surplus, you will
each have to pay much more for
your Peds than you have done in
the past.”

A number of the Student Board
of Finance explained that the
money could safely be taken from
the Surplus Fund.

An amendment to the motion, in-
troduced by Charles Miller, '49, was
passed asking that the appropria-
tion be raised to $1000.

Art 4 Students To Compete

been announced. The Directory will

tion,

perlences in the service. Anyone who

contribute the money obtained from
these presentations to the Student
Union fund. The four classes, and
