The
Eight
Ball
With
CARL MITCHELL
nd this one to the sons of Nip-
ate Se amtlly the newly-formed
State College golf team was serenely
practicing on the municipal links.
Magnanimous Dave Bitteman walk-
ed up to John Sussina and gra-
clously presented him with a dilapi-
dated pill saying, “Here, John, I
don't want this ball any more, let's
see you send it sailing off into the
woah,” said John taken aback by
such unselfish generosity, “that’s
something I’ve always wanted to
do, give it here.”
The exuberant young freshman
teed the ball, took a lusty swing
and a loud crash ensued. It was
an exploding golf ball! No wonder
we had a blackout that night.
Reminiscing in Sports
Have you noticed the pack of
wuives that have been hungrily tak-
ing in the spectacie of women’s
sports near hawiey, Some of the
voider lads from une Albany area
now have started to pull up to the
curb with their newest retreads and
hang out the windows—drooling.
Kit Herdman was pitching a hot
game of softball, It was almost bell
time (no, we didn’t say belle) when
she faced the situation with one on
first, one on second, and two outs,
Getting very excited, the little
girl tried to oulfox her opponents
by making an unexpected toss to
catch the girl off second base. It
almost worked except the recipient
of the throw was a surprised third
seman!
acre the same afternoon, Leda
LaSalle pulled a Brooklyn Boner
when she picked up a sizzling
grounder but, instead of making a
quick throw in, she took her femin-
ime prerogative and star’ ed arguing
with a fellow outfielder—while the
batter casually walked in to score.
But 'The Men, No ‘
ene Guarino set a new personal
woste for errors the other day while
playing ahora We counted six—
e left early.
a isaeen Reeves, the lusty pirate,
has never gone cut for State sports
but now we find him pitching such
good games, as four, seven, and
e ~hitters. .
be cro Oarr, one of our faithful
sports writers, has been knocked out
of the box three times but we find
still trying.
es Walter (Dutch) Schultze gar-
nered a position on the tennis team
by narrowly defeating Iry Stelaberg
while the ladder was still open.
The Ebony Sphere
Erbe of the Royal Order of
the Ebony Sphere will be happy to
know that the executive committee
has made plans for a better or-
ganized club next year.
sry Earl J, Dorwaldt has been se~
lected to act as faculty
and is now awaiting the select
next year’s executive board

Stalwa.? Sophomores Play
Ferocious Femines of ‘45
“And another Freshman bit
the dust.” This according to
Mary Domenn, captain, will be
the battle-cry of the Golden
Horde team in the rivalry soft-
ball game today. The stalwart
damsels of the class of '44 have
forsworn their hot fudge sun-
daes and multitudinous cokes
for the past week in training
for this event.
“The Crimson Tide surges on
to victory,” says Nora Giavelli,
captain of the frosh team. With
a gleam of pride in her eyes, she
claims that her team could lick
its weight in sophomore men,
Thus, why should it tremble be-
fore the might of the soph fems,
the so-called weaker sex.
Which team will gain the cov-
eted three points in rivalry?
Come to the game today at 4:15
in front of Page Hall and learn
the answer to this burning
question.
Netmen to Play
Cortland Today;
Lose RPI Match
With the records showing one win
and one loss, the State netmen
have spent the past week practicing
for their match with Cortland Nor-
mal this afternoon, The match is
scheduled to take place on State's
home courts at Ridgefield, starting
at 2:30. Captain Brauner feels con-
fident of State's chances of winning,
for last year’s racqueteers defeated
Cortland handily by a score of 6-3.
Lose to RPI
After breezing through to an easy
win over Plattsburg in the season's
opening match, the squad took a ra-
ther bad beating from the flashing
racquets of RPI last week. The
match was played on RPI’s home
courts, The score was 6-2,
‘The players who won were Mullin,
playing in third spot, who won his
singles match, and Finer and Mul-
lin in their doubles match. The
hardest fought set of the day, go-
ing to 28 games before it was de-
cided, was between Stiller and his
man. Stiller finally lost 13-15.
Schultze Replaces Steinberg
The only man who was successful
in replacing a team man was L.
Walter Schultze, who defeated
Steinberg at Ridgefield on Sunday.
Since no more challenge matches
can be played, the squad has been
finally set. It consists of Harry
Kensky, Henry Brauner, Fran Mul-
lin, Norman Finer, Bernard Bern-
hardt, Alfred Stiller, and L. Walter
Schultze.

Golden Horde Leads Red Raiders
As Final Week of Rivalry Nears
by Clarence Oarr
With only one week remaining, in-
terest in the traditional frosh-soph
battle is keyed to a high pitch. At
present, the tradition-breaking class
of ’44 is well in the lead of the
Crimson and White “Torrent” (so-
called). If the contests which have
so far been staged, the Golden
Horde has garnered 15‘ points, the
frosh, 31%. However, there are 18
more points to be decided, so the
frosh may be considered as having
a slim chance.
The Rivalry points to date are:
Frosh Sophs
Pushball . - 2
Women's Races...
Football ..
Debate .
Sing ...
Basketball
Men
Women
3% 15%
The first of these events, the wo-
men’s softball game, will take place
this afternoon in front of Page Hall.
Mary Domann, '44, and Nora Gia-
velli, ‘45, are the representative cap-
tains of their teams. The Men's
softball contest will take place
Tuesday, May 5, at 4:30 P.M., under
the captainships of Hal Ashworth,
‘44, and Buck Hippick, '45.
The tug-of-war, captained by Ray
Verrey, '44, and Zollie Privett, '45,
will occur at 12 noon, May 8. At
4:30 the same day the pushball con-
test will be held under captains Bill
Marsland, '44, and Don Sayles, 45,
followed by the women’s field events
at 4:50.
Naturally, both classes have very
partisan points of view, each main-
taining that the other will be
slaughtered. However, that is a
point that but one thing can settle
—time.
The remaining points are:
Girls Boys Both
Softball 3 3
Tug-of-War
Pushball
Stunts
Sing :
Women's 1B as 2
Looking at the frosh record so far,
there seems to be nothing much that
serves to back up their rash state-
ments other than a determined
fighting spirit. Last fall's pushball
and football games were easily won
by the sophs.
And another thing to consider is
the spirit evidenced in the soph
theme song—"We did it before, and
we can do it again!”

‘Pirates’ Operetta Myskania Goes Places in ‘42
To be Televised
From Schenectady
Abridged Cast to Act
Within 40-Foot Front
State College strikes out into a
new field May 16 at 8:00 P. M. when
the Operatic Society's presentation
of Gilbert and Sullivan's Pirates of
Penzance is televised from WGBA,
Schenectady. An abridged cast will
try out the new medium in response
to an invitation extended last Mon-
day by the Television Station in
Schenectady.
A director trom the studio has
been engaged to instruct the players
in the art of acting for a television
audience, since there are many tech-
nical aspects involved in a televised
production. The cast has to prac-
tice moving in a space of 400 square
feet, and all movement must be to
left and right to keep the characters
in focus. The production is an ex-
perimental one for State, since the
group is pioneering for the college
in this field. Visitors are admitted
free of charge to the studio.
To conserve space, the cast has
been considerably cut down, A chorus
of ten men and ten women will
appear in the television production.
Max Reeves, '42, and Jean McAl-
lister, '43, head the cast. Other
principals are George Kunz, Harley
Dingman, Betty Marston, Junio.
Eleanor Schlesinger, Brooks Roberts,
Seniors, and Jane Southwick, Ger-
trude Bove, and Verne Marshall,
Sophomores.
Budget Adopted;
Annual is Planned
The 1942-43 budget was passed at
the Student Association meeting
last Friday after being submitted
to a number of changes at two
student association meetings de-
voted to discussion of the budget.
The most controversial proposal
adopted was one to eliminate the
Statesman, The motion was carried
by a vote of 245-240.
But the literary efforts of State
College could not be dampened so
easily for the Statesman was re-
vived in another form at the May 1
meeting when Edwin Holstein, ‘42,
moved that $300 be appropriated for
the publication of a college literary
annual. There was little objection
to this motion und it was passed
with an amendment providing that
elections for the Board of the mag-
azine be held annually at an open
public meeting and also that all
materials belonging to the States-
man be turned over to the new or-
ganization.

Lovenheim Contest Shows
Rising Literary Interest
“Literary interest in short story
writing has prodigiously increased
as evidenced by 23 entries in the
Leah Lovenheim Prize Contest in
favorable comparison to seven of
the preceding y said Dr. Shields
Mcllwaine, Professor of English. In
further explanation Dr. Mellwaine
said this year the task of judging
the entries will be the responsibility
of Dr. Varley Lang, instructor in

Dean to Meet Frosh

that he will meet on May 11;

minor in Social Studies or English.
The purpose of the meeting will be
to prepare tentative schedules for
the next college year,

Maybe they haven't done it be-
fore but Myskania has done it this
year. By this, we mean that the
1941-42 Myskania has really accom-
plished some definite objectives. Be-
sides the routine tasks they have
handled, they have an impressive
list of accomplishments to their
credit.
Firstly, Myskania was the im-
pelling force behind the Student-
Faculty Discussion Group until war
activities stole the limelight,
It was Myskania which promoted
the Student Union idea and the
utilization of the Farrell Mansion.
And it was Myskania that conducted
the cafeteria investigation.
Throughout this semester, Mys-
kania has met many times with Dr.
Sayles to discuss student problems,
Administration and faculty alike
have praised its work in establish-
ing better relations and cooperation
between students and faculty,
To top this stellar record, the lead-
ing group of the campus doffed their
caps and stored away their black
robes in favor of sweat shirts and
shorts for the Myskania-Faculty
basketball game, The rough and
ready contest netted $110 for the
Red Cross and the War Activities
Council.
So it is to this brilliant career that
Myskania writes finis when they tap
their successors tomorrow. They've
“started something,” so, new Mys-
kania, what're ya gonna do about it?

Concert Success
by Mary Studebaker
Last night, to a small but respon-
sive audience, State College Choral
Society, Operatic Society, and Sym-
phony Orchestra presented an ex-
tremely ambitious and highly suc-
cessful program concert, The serious
regret of the evening, and it is a
deep one, was the small attendance.
The Symphony Orchestra climbed
steadily from & high-schoolish pre-
sentation of the Toreador Aria to a
a brilliant interpretation of Enesco's
Rumanian Rhapsody. Although the
rendition of the Haydn Symphony
was adequate, it was in Profkoffiev's
Triumphal March and Moussorg-
sky's Great Gate of Kicv that the
chestra renched its full stride.

It was the refreshing Negro spir-

that completely won the
however.
The Pirates of Penzance made a
happy return in the presentation of
some of its scores by the Operatic
Society. Needless to say, the selee-
tions were hailed with the same
degree of enthusiasm that they re-
ceived at their debut. ‘That “Phe
Very Model of a Modern Major
General,” George Kunz once again
walked away with the audience's
heart in his solo. McAllister and
Reeves were as professional as
usual, and Harley Dingman once
again “constabularied” successfully,
although it is to be regretted that
Mr. Dingman could not complain
about his policeman's lot. The fi-

a
Ours Not to Reason Why .
The “masthead” which appears above this
editorial will never be reproduced again, for
tomorrow in assembly new hands, new minds,
and new energy will be chosen to produce the
STATE COLLEGE NEWS. That is as it has
always been. Tomorrow in assembly many
other new people will assume all the guiding
roles in this institution. That, too, is as it
has always been. Tomorrow in assembly the
Senior Class will go into mourning for itself
and will finally pass away on Commencement
Day. Nothing in this is unusual either. The
situation that is different, the innovation on
the scene is that the words “safe now in the
wide, wide world” belie the actual cireum-
stances, The Seniors are not safe.
For the first time in 24 years a Senior
Class walks forth from this campus into the
jaws of death. For the first time in 24 years,
no member of the Senior Class will be allowed
to go on with his or her normal plans for life.
The class of 1942 strides out into a world that
is filled with fear, destruction, privation, and
decadence of all sorts. It strides into a world
that needs its ieadership and its manhood
badly, because the very premise upon which
its education has been based is in danger of
being crushed by a most formidable foe. Do
not take your situation lightly, Class of 1942,
for you are in a nasty spot!! But do not let
your situation get you down, for you have
within you the desire and the means for
ridding yourself of the pestilence that plagues
you, Accept your lot as it is cast upon you.
Adjust yourself to it and bend every effort
to make it a better one, Only by such a
philosophy will you be able to live now and
after the Victory without warping your
mind beyond repair.
The task of the men is clear, They must
defend, with their blood if need be, the home
that is ours. If possible, they must train
themselves to lead in the armed forces, for
there lies the greatest need for college men
in the service, Others will find that the tech-
nical skills which they have acquired are of
value. They must exert these skills to the
utmost, to produce for war.
Women have a different sort of war task.
They must continue their chosen profession
of teaching, but they must teach the prin-
ciples of Internationalism in a new and inten-
sified light. They must indoctrinate a code
of life for the world which is to follow and
that world will be a radically different one.
It will require new ideas for its inhabitants
and these ideas can come only from liberal,
farseeing teachers.
These are your tasks, Class of 1942, Spe-
cifically stated for the men, ambiguously
stated for the women. A large and difficult
task and a chance to see a new world in the
making are a privilege that is given to but
few, Accept this privilege, Class of 1942,
Do your job well, so that State College will
be proud to have borne you, Good luck to
us alll!

the farmers want to be protected from John L.—but
to the cows (the real producers), contentedly chew-
ing their cuds, it’s just a lot of bull... .
ADDED CRITICISM—In the library, where a pre-
mium is placed upon quietness, someone would do well
to apply some axle-grease to the wheels of the push
book-cart. The rattle of this cart, as it frequently
makes its rounds, is far more annoying than the
whispering which is so strenuously frowned upon... .
Vocal Boy Makes Good
Moe Stevens, good looking red head of the class of
’41, spent last weekend here at State, visiting his old
haunts. ...
Moe was inducted last July at Fort Bragg, N. C.,
where he “enjoyed” the basic training plus specialists
work in instruments at the Field Artillery Replace-
ment Center. After his basic training, “red-dog” was
transferred to the 28th Field Artillery Battalion at
Fort Jackson, South Carolina—a 155 millimeter How-
itzer outfit—where he took part in a month of
maneuvers,
Moe describes the maneuvers adequately with a
laconic, but eloquent “Ugh!”
Following Pearl Harbor, Stevens started working
toward Officers School and the Air Corps. Naturall;
he was accepted for both, but chose the Air Corp:
“Because it offered more action.”
Virtue does not go long unrewarded, and Moe is no
exception. Our Hero is now addressed as Technical
Sergeant Stevens, whose job is, in his own words,
“trying to fool the Colonel into thinking I'm a smart
guy.”
Sergeant Stevens is having an extended vacation
due to the fact that training facilities in the Air
Corps are overcrowded at present. Sergeant Red per-
suaded his superior officers that the Army would be
better off if he got out of the way till the situation
cleared up a bit—and both he and the Army would
enjoy a rest...
Moe has advanced commendably in the armed forces,
and gives his formula for any who might be interested
—or drafted—"You can get anything you want in the
Army with some brains and lots of hard work and
ambition.”
ADDED IRONY—The canes to be wielded by the
Juniors moving-up day were made in Japan! How-
ever, Ira Hirsch, purchasing agent for '43, explains
that the canes were in stock long before the war broke
out, since it has been impossible to import bamboo
after Hirohito's henchmen snueis in the rabbit punch
on December 7.
s is an ironical situation, but should in no way
with the use of the props which will hold
up many weary juniors throughout the day
especially th who might be feeling the immoderate
adoption of a liquid diet.
Any possible clamour against the use of the canes
would be prompted, in our opinion, by petty or sordid
reasons, and should be ignored as such,
All we have to do is follow Pete Marchetta’s logic
that the canes were made in China and confiscated by
the sons of nippons. However, anyone with any
qualms can ease their conscience by buying a war
stamp—and thus help keep someone marching who
hasn't got a cane to support himself with

Bulger Reports
Increase in Calls;
Commerce Leads
142 SEB Placements
Correspondingly Lower
“There have been more calls for
teachers this year than in past
years, but there has not been a cor-
responding increase in the number
of placements,” said Mr. Paul Bul-
ger, director of the Student Employ-
ment Bureau. “Most of the calls we
have received have been for women,”
commented Mr, Bulger, “but princi-
still want to employ men teach-
, if they are good enough. In line
with this, there is a slight shortage
of teachers due especially to the
drafting of men teachers, and to the
fact that defense industries are of-
fering such high wages.
57 Receive Appointments
Approximately 57 seniors, oul of a
of about 260, have eived
teaching appointments, and of these,
56 were women. Maurits Johnson
Westford is the only male in
f '42 to obtain a teaching
position. He will teach Science and
Mathematics in Bombay.
Out of 142 placements which the
SEB made or assisted in making this
year, Commerce was by far the most
popular subject, receiving 33 calls.
English was next in popularity with
13 calls, the Math-Science combina-
tion running a close third with 10
placements. Nine social studies s\
dents were placed by tbe Bui
Seven students obtained libra
English placements. ‘The old stand-
bys such as Mathematics, Science,
French and English-S Studie
have received only 1, and 1 calls
respectively so far.
Notify of Summer Address
Seniors should notify the SEB of-
fice of their summer addresses and
summer telephone numbers, and of
any changes in their permanent ad-
dresses. If seniors receive any sort
of employment or if they no longer
desire teaching — positions, — they
should notify SEB, so the records
can be kept straight.

‘Satisfying, Elevating and Diverting.
Characterize Feelings on Moving-Up
by Janet Baxter
Many and varied are the thoughts
that cross the human mind as the
college year approaches its height.
Now only short hours intervene be-
fore the student body will know
ALL. Tomorrow the pall of secrecy
will lift from State's ivied walls, and
everyone can draw a deep breath
without looking around to see if he
is being observed.
Let's join the roving reporter and
find out some individual reactions
on the big show, Bob Leonard, '43,
commented: “I've got to make a
speech, so right now I think it's
lousy.” Mary “Abby” Domann, '44,
said: “At last my curiosity will be
satisfied. It's the high spot of the
Incidentally, our blouses
“Moving-Up Day is elevating,”
was Don Vanas', '42, cryptic remark.
Short and snappy too was Ruth Leg-
gett's, '43, comment: “Curiosity and
tension,” and “Moose” Gerber, '43,
said: “It'll be interesting ‘My, but
I'm excited—for my friends,” hu-
mor-ized Helen Brucker, '44.
Speaking as one who is about to
experience his first Moving-Up Day,
Joe Roulier, '45, said, “It'll be a
diversion after all these months of
cramming.” And on the other side
of the ledger is this comment from
@ Senior, Glen Walrath, who looks
to his last Moving-Up. Oddly enough,
one thought fills Glen's mind: “It’s
that damn Ivy speech I have to
give. Of course I feel a little senti-
mental, considering that I'll prob-
ably be in the war next year, but,
hell, that speech!”
Saul Stolbof, ‘44, recalled the
events of last year when he said
“T hope that our class speaker will
mount the stage with hair all there.”
Shirley Kyle, '42, says “My first
thought is: wear comfortable shoes,
I speak from three years of bitter
experience. You enjoy the day most
as a Junior; it seems like an anti-
climax to a Senior, It makes you
feel sad to see all the young sprouts
coming up to fill your shoes—for
the Seniors are moving out
Marilyn Rich, '43, says: “I look
forward to Moving-Up Day as a
time of fun. My thoughts don't go
any deeper. I appreciate it more as
a freshman and sophomore, but now
it doesn’t mean so much,”
“IT am thoroughly bored with the
whole procedure,” concisely stated
Harry Passow, '42. (Note: Harry is
one of THOSE people who already
know ALL.)
So there we have a cr ection
of the thoughts State College is
thinking the day before THE BIG
DAY.

Gaylord Chairman for Dance
Dr, John M. Sayles, President of
the College, has released the names

mencement speakers, and Marjorie
Gaylord, ‘42, general chairman of
the 1942 Senior Ball, has announced

‘Royal Family’ is Satire
On Barrymore Family
A satire on the illustrious Barry-
more Family takes the spotlight May
15, when The Royal Family makes
its appearance at State for the sec-
ond time in eight years. The play,
written by Kaufman and Ferber,
will be presented by the Advanced
Dramatics class at 8:30 P. M, in the
Page Hall auditorium. Miss Agnes
Putterer, Assistant Professor of
English, is directing.
The play concerns a family of
actors whose lives have been bound
by traditions of the theater. It is
an attempt to display the difference
between two generations: the older,
as represented by the charming
elderly “trouper,” Fanny Cavendish,
who is determined never to cease
acting, while the younger genreation,
portrayed by Julie and Gwen Caven-
dish, rebel and temporarily relin-
quish acting, but ultimately return
to the stage through thelr innate
love of the theater.
The cast is as follows: Fanny
Cavendish, Betty Barden, '43; Julle
Cavendish, Jane Curtis, '43; Tony
Cavendish, James MoFeeley, '44;
Gwen Cavendish, Trece Aney, "44;
Herbert Dean, Jack Vose, '44; Kitty

Adams, '44; Gil Marshall, George
Seifert, '42; McDermott, John Lubey,
"45.
June Melville, '43, was slated for
the part of Gwen, but due to an
appendicitis attack, was unable to
continue the performance. Trece
Aney has taken over her role, John
Lubey has also substituted for Luke
zilles, '43, who was called for the
draft.

Sewing Work Ends for Semester;
To be Presented Garments Include Rompers, Skirts
by Betty Gravelle
With a record of 244 completed
garments the Red Cross sewing or-
ganization in State College will end
its first semester’s work today. The
sewing room was furnished and be-
gan to function January 26. During
the thirteen weeks following this
date, the college girls made various
articles including rompers, several
different styles of skirts, snowsults,
dresses, convalescent robes, boys’
pants and nightgowns.
Sally Beard, ’42, chairman of Red
Cross sewing at State, feels that the
organization “really accomplished a
lot.” Those girls who sewed enjoyed
the variety and the recess from
studying.
Activity in the sewing room was
supervised by faculty members. Mrs.
Tiezen organized the group and
spent two days a week sewing with
the girls, Other faculty members and
faculty wives who aided greatly were
Mrs. Barsam, Mrs, Brimmer, Mrs.
Cooper, Miss Dobbin, Miss Lester,
Mrs, Sisk and Miss Stokes,
An average of thirty girls worked
fifty-two hours per week during the
semester. Madeleine Fagan, the most
faithful sewer, worked five hours
every week, Girls who missed no

We wonder If all appreciate the
fact that there are many among us

those who remain behind the full

Two Seniors Write Words, Music
Of Long-Awaited State Fight Song
by Ray Ve
The sport department is happy to
find that after a prolonged cam-
paign to get some of the local talent
to write a fight song for the sports
contestants, this ambition has been
finally consummated,
Les Graves, '42, trumpet teacher
at Vincentian Institute and a mem~-
ber of the State College Orchestra,
recently wrote a melody for the
piano and made several arrange-
ments for different instruments
which now eonstitutes the official
State College Fight Song, “We Can
Win,”
Words to accompany the song
were written by Edwin Holstein,
versatile editor of the News
The melody is printed above with
the following words:
If we tht,

‘The words and melody will be
sting by the Student Association this
morning When the song is introduced
by President John Ralph Tibbetts,
During today's sing Shirley Mosher
will play the piano arrangement,
while Barl Snow will lead the sing-
ing.
The sports department had previ-
ously written to Fred Waring in an
attempt to get the noted orchestra
leader to compose such a song for
State, but priorities and such pre-
vented his fulfilling our request

However, the song which will be pre-

In line with all the announcing
of honors tomorrow during the tra-
ditional M-U-D ceremonies, let me
say today that praise should go to
Kay Peterson for a swellegant job
this year as prez of WAA. With
enthusiastic leadership, she has pre-
sented an expanded program which
has resulted in an increased num-
ber of girls turning out for the
various sports.
Bowling to the Fore
One activity which has spurted
into the limelight during the past
year is bowling. Seventy girls bowled
twelve or more times to receive
credit, and a countless number didn’t
quite make the credit. A bowling
league of seven teams was organized
and the tournament was completed
with alacrity. All of the participants
regretted seeing the contests end.
What more can be said?
Fencing, too, has received more
attention. A big factor responsible
this year was the introduction of
Saturday morning instructions by
an expert. The exhibition given by
the girls showed the excellent results
of their practice,
These are but two sports—how-
ever, ask any active WAA'er about
this year’s swell program.
Posters Please
The value of publicity cannot be
denied—the cye-arresting posters
which have gecorated the WAA
bulletin board this year have played
a great part in reminding the mem-
bers about each activity.

VanasTriumphsby 67 Votes Slavin To Edit
In Association Presidency
Ashworth, Roulier Take
Major Election Berths
Staving off a last minute chal-
lenge by a surprisingly strong can-
didate, Don Vanas was elected to
the presidency of Student Associa-
tion for next year to succeed Ralph
Tibbetts. The announcement of
Vanas'’ election to the highest under-
graduate office in the college was
greeted by a tumult of cheers from
@ Moving-Up-Day gathering which
included students, parents, and fac-
ulty.
In winning the crowning laurels
of a long and popular political ca-
reer, Vanas defeated Howard Lynch
by a vote of 343 to 276, a majority
of 67. Lynch entered the contest
against the vice-president of Student
Association an under-dog, having
never held a major popularly-elected
office in the college; he emerged
with a strong following.
Climax of Vanas’ Career
For Vanas it was the climax of a
successful political career which be-
gan at the end of his freshman year
with his election to secretaryship of
Student Association. Since then he
has climbed almost with ease the
traditional ladder to the top. He
won the vice-presidency last year
by a 2 to 1 vote and until Lynch's
strong bid this year he appeared to
be an invincible candidate for the
presidency,
The hotly contested race drew 619
undergraduates to the polls to vote
for their choice for president.
The other two major elections for
Student Association office were not
nearly so clear cut. Two males de-
feated opposition which included
women to round out the masculine
trio which will run the Student
Association next year. Harold Ash-
worth was elected vice-president and
Joe Roulier, secretary.
Women’s Bloc Split
Ashworth trailed Pat Latimer in
the first vote for the vice-presi-
dency, but in the revotes Ashworth
gathered enough strength to defeat
Miss Latimer by a margin of 53
votes. The defeat of Miss Latimer
indicated cracking of the women’s
bloc which helped sweep her into
the secretarysh!p last year. The only
other candidate of any strength was
Fred Shoemaker. Rhona Ryan made
a fair showing, while Fred Beyer and
Pat Carroll never had a chance.
The last minute write-in ballot
movement for Miss Carroll was be-
gun too Inte to have any effect on
the election.
Rouller Surprises
In the race for secretary, Joe Rou-
Mer made a surprising showing. In
the original vote, he ran third to
Peggy Dee and Fran Mullin. In the
first revotes he succeeded in elimi-
nating Miss Dee, despite his drawing
of only 8 more votes than she. In
the final revotes he defeated Fran
Mullin by’ 5 votes, The only other
candidates of any consequence were
Elaine Harris and Martha Sprenger,
both of whom had only about a half
dozen votes less than Roulier in the
first vote, but were nevertheless
eliminated.
Competition was fairly keen in
other student association elections,
three votes being necessary to decide
the NSFA representative for next
year, William Marsland, even though
the post had heen abolished before
the third voting.
Wurz Forum '42-'43 Speaker
The Forum of Politics has ap-
pointed the following to its Board

Young Elected
In the Class of 1943 with 143 peo-
ple marking ballots, Thomas Feeney
rode into the presidency with a
decisive plurality of 83 votes. Mildred
Mattice was uncontested for the po-
sition of vice-president of this class.
Oddly enough exactly 143 members
of the Class of 1942 also participated
in their spring elections last year,
Richmond Young gained the presi-
dency of the Class of 1944 via the
slightly more difficult revote route.
With 154 ballots cast in the
first vote and 134 in the second vote,
Young nosed cut Sovik by a scant
seven vote margin, Young is a new-
comer on the presidential roster as
is his vice-presidential running
mate, Fred Shoemaker, who won
with a more decisive plurality of 31
votes,
The incoming sophomores, 170
strong, voted confidence in the pres-
ent administration of the Class of
1945 by reinstating both Florence
Garfall as president and Curtis
Pfaff as vice-president. Garfall
came through with a plurality of 31
votes in the first effort on the bal-
cony of the Commons, while it took
Pfaff a revote to draw out of a six-
candidate field with an identical
plurality,
The complete listing of the new

A capacity crowd of students, faculty, and guests jammed
the Page Hall auditorium this morning to witness the time:
honored tradition of “tapping” new members for Myskania,
campus leadership society. The surprise element was not at
all lacking for the thirteen chairs on the stage indicated to the
upperclassmen only that thirteen could be the maximum al-
though very few expected a “full” Myskania, As the eleven
members of the present Myskania returned to the stage, it
seemed that all was over as Paul Merritt left his place, walked
across the stage and returned to his position. A murmur rose
from the assemblage, however, as Jeanette Ryerson stepped
out to make another journey to return with Lois Hafley. Once
again, the crowd sat back, only to be roused again as Edwin
Holstein left the stage to “tap” Winifred Jones, thus complet-
ing the maximum number that could be selected. Passow's
final tour signifying the formal ending of the tapping cere-
mony came as an anti-climax.

Old-New Myskania Speak
Opening this morning's program
speakers from each of the four
cla Junior class speaker was
Robert Leonard, tenth man to be
tapped for Myskania this morning,
Speaking for the class of 1942 was
William Dickson, a member of the
outgoing Myskania, Barbara Put-
nam and Betty Grayelle also spoke,
so
It ts coincidental that only once
in recent years has a thirteen mem-
bered Myskania been selected and
this Myskania presided during the
freshman year of the outgoing Mys-
Kania, Coincidental also, is the fact
that the 1938-1939 Myskania also
consisted of seven men and six wo-
men just as does the Myskania
selected today.
A. Harry Passow op. ued the cere-
monies with a slow de. berate jour-
ney, escorting back to .he stage the
