Bokhari, Pakistan Delegate
To Speak Here Thursday

Ahmed Shah Bokhari, Pakistan's
delegate to the U.N., will address
an audience of State College stu-
dents in Page Hall at 1:30 pm,
Thursday. Bokhari is being brought
to State by Forum and Student As-
sociation

Bokhari, acting president of the
Security Council last month, has
been a college professor, Shakes-
pearian scholar, radio broadcaster
poet, and playwright. He was a
leader in the struggle for partition
of India in 1947, and he has repre-
sented his country in the U.N. for
almost two years.

He is the holder of two university
degrees, one from the University
of Punjab and one from Cambridge
He was a professor of English in
India in the 1920's and carly ‘30's
and later became one of the leading
radio announcing figures in’ the
country

Bokhari has translated several
English works, among them those
of Shaw, Shakespeare, Galsworthy,
Oscar Wilde, and Henri Bergson,
into Urdu. Short stories, plays, and
poems in Urdu and Persian are also
credited to his pen.

A fluent speaker in U.N. sessions,
and appearing with a minimum of
notes, Bokhari was compared to 1
hare by Great Britain's Sir Glad-
wyn Jebb, in regard to the debate
on Tunisia. Sir Gladwyn thought a
more conservative approach was
needed for the problem Bokhari

replied, “Sir Gladwyn Jebb, with a
felicity of language which T
envy him, has been pleased to call
himself a tortoise and myself a
hare. He has, therefore, accused me
of impetuousness. He has also suid
that in the British Commonwealth

. there is room for many kinds
of political animals. This is prob-
ably true, but uf in’ the British
Commonwealth there are any os-
Uriches, they are not found in my
country.”

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1952

Look Ahead...

Whenever the new and the old get together, tnere
seems to arise an attitude of “well, you did a good
job, but just wait until I get my hands on the
reins!” Student Association is going through just
such a period now with the out-goers not quite
gone and the in-comers not yet in, During this
time we find a sudden decline in the year-long
gripes and criticisms as the high ideals and plans
of new officers are put forward to take their places.

Now that the congratulations have died down
these new officers have begun to look seriously at
the tasks which await them, Student Association
would do well to look at the job which it faces.
Just what can we expect to be the issues of the
coming year? A few can be forecast with some
certainty; many must wait upon our actions This
year we have seen many new things in tituted in
the college—a new building bringing with it ex-
pansion in facilities, a new dormitory and Student
Union revolutionizing our social activities, and, of
course, all the problems which new things bring.
We have not met all of these problems successfully,
probably few of them permanetly, for football, riv-
alry, student-faculty relations, the cafeteria and
Common’s situations, and others, all will no doubt
arise again next year. The leaders which you saw
elected last Saturday bring to their offices high
ideals for dealing with these problems which they
know to e and for facing intelligently those
which are still to come, It is your duty to support
them,

What does this support consist of? First, a be-
lief in your leaders and their ideals, and a willing-
ness to cooperate to see them accomplished. Sec-
ondly, interest enough in your government to be-
come informed and stay informed on issues which
concern you and about which you have complaints,
Third, nerve enough to air your ideas, your de-
sires, your criticisms openly so that they may stand
public consideration, and fourth, and perhaps most
important judging from the occurances of this
year, the conviction that critisism is not a end
or an entertainment in itself. Out of wide spread
complaint should come remedial action, Let's not
become so involved in complaining that we forget
the situation with which we found fault, We can-
not expect one sweeping corrective motion to solve
all difficulties, but we can look ahead with con-
fidence in our leaders and in our ability to deal
wisely and suc y h issue as it presents
itself. From you, Student Association, must come
the desire to do so,

Last Show...

Another Moving-Up Day has come and gone,
and with it the climax to that much-criticized in
stitution wiich we call Rivalry. [tis ironic and per-
haps fitting that the deciding factor in such a close
fought contest should be the now-discarded Big-
Fours. We can only hope that the proposed All-
College Review can succeed in arousing the in-
terest and activity in the college as was evidenced
not become enterprizes discouraging under-classmen
from developing their talents in earlier years,
Big-Fours may be dead, but the enjoyment. and
the opportunity for developing leadership abilities
which they gave to those who participated in them
have contributed much to making the Gremlins
and Blue Jays a more integrated part of college
life, Let's be sure we have something to take their
place, something to do the job which they have
attempted,

Grecdom of Assembly

By ALAN BUCK

Why does the Administration of
the college require the students to
attend the Friday assemblies which
are a student function?

If you expect me to answer this
question, you are due for a disap-
pointment—I cannot.

The assembly is not necessary to
the Administration. Printed an-
nouncements are far more enduring
than verbal ones and they have the
advantage of teaching even those
who do not attend assembly.

Does required attendance at the
assemblies improve the quality of
our student government? You can
lead a student to assembly, but you
can’t make him participate. We are
very fortunate to have the privilege
of self-government, but is self-gov-
ernment a privilege or un obliga-
tion? We are obliged to take part
in our government. Certainly the
minimum requirement for voting
and taking part in debates should
be sufficient interest to attend the
assemblies. Some students are in-
terested in our government—some
are not. Those who are interested

————__

will always be interested and will
always contribute much; those who
are not interested will never con-
tribute much, even if they attend
Student Association assemblies, Re-
quired attendance does not seem to
assist our self-government, but
rather hinders it by filling the as-
semblies with disinterested students.

Does our democratic student gov-
ernment have the power to abol-
ish the attendance requirement at
the assemblies? This is another
question which I cannot answer. I
do not know whether or not the
Administration which has given the
student body the opportunity to
govern itself has given it the right,
to determine its method of self-
government.

I understand that there are many
students who do not have the op-
portunity to attend the SA As-
sembly because they have not been
assigned a seat, It is with these
students in mind that I hereby offer
my chair to anyone unfortunate
enough to have not been assigned
one and interested enough to want
to attend.

‘To the Editor:

Now that the Self-Glory contests
are settled, let us turn from moans
over lack of spirit and rivalry
reflect on some of the inner fraili-
ties of State. We are at present re-
peatedly urged to pay homage to
our deities for providing a million-
dollar drinking fountain and a
women’s hotel, a fluorescent lighted
classroom edifice, a possible football
team, and the prospect of bushels
of new freshmen who may not be
able to read or write but surely will
contribute to the country club at-
mosphere which even the most high
have felt desirable. I wonder if
Harvard, Vassar, or MIT, became
famous because of the quality of
men and women produced. 1 am not
belittling our growth in exterior
facades, but I do question the neg-
lect of the administration to
strengthen the less spectacular, im-
portant er-cores. which help
make a college worthwhile.

The heart of a university is its
library. We are told of a huge li-
brary nearby, “Nearby” proves an

Since the most vital segment of
teacher training materializes in
practice teaching, does anyone do
more than gripe over the artificiali-
ties, nervous prostrations, or mini:
ture Napoleons which are self evi-
dent in the Milne situation?

A third area often forgotten is
that melting pot of favoritism call-
ed the Teachers’ Placement Bureau.
When the time comes to all for job
hunting, the TPB serves its select
few and serves them well, but the
majority of $5 bills might be better
pent on a good spree for all the
return received on the investment

Naturally there are many more
areas of irritation and neglect un-
touched by this letter, but after
five years of internship among these
nettles, I cannot help but feel we
have become unduly concerned over
exteriors, a feeling fostered by the
administration as well as many
students, and unfortunately heed-
less to some of the less glamorous
phases which in the long run may
rove more valuable criteria for a
college experience

A NEW LEAF .. -

Elections are finally over, and the momentary thri!
of Moving Up Day seems to have passed. Did we ru.
for the honor and glory of holding an office, or did
we run with the intent of giving a year's work for
the “good of the organization?” Now, action mus:
speak louder than the “smiles” and words of pre
election time; it is not only the duty of the individ
uals who have been elected to carry out the functior
of their offices, but it is also the duty and right «:
every member of Student Association to make
that these incumbents do not rest on their past laur
els. Can we and are we willing to make our nex

Student Association something that won't )
referred to as “apathetic,” or are we just going :
drift along and follow the same old pattern thi
seems to be so easy to fall into. Will the Facilitic
Board become an active group in fulfilling its dutie:
will members of Student Council be aware of th
fact that they represent their classes and not then
selves; will Athletic Council ever present a constiti,
tion so that we can be sure what their actual duti
are... ? These and many other questions pertaini»,
to student affairs must be answered to insure a bei
ter working government! I hope and ask that 1h
new Officers of all phases of our organization will sir
cerely strive to serve well and efficiently the peopi:
they represent. Now that you hold a student joi
with the association as your employer, try to r¢
member “A public office is a sacred trust!”

BUDG , BUDGETS, BUDGETS . .

Once again we find, due to poor planning, tha
one of the most important student affairs is bein
rushed. I should think that after yea
we would realize that the spending of $27,000
be settled in a matter of three hou Last week }
assembly I could sense that disinterested feeling o:
the part of quite a few members of Student Associa
tion; to them the reading of each individual line
the budget seems like a waste of time, but who a
the first people to complain. We don't ask pertine:
questions becwuse we are afraid the budget won
get finished and that special assemblies will need (
be called, But, how about realizing that it’s your
money that’s being spent. Last Friday we coverc«
approximately two or three organizations before oi
person had courage enough or enough interest
question the validity of spending money on a publica
tion. Are we, of State College, so rich that we ca
sit back and throw a dollar here and a dollar ther
without questioning its ultimate destination?

THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES .. .

As I sat down to write this column I realized tha
this would be the last issue of this year's State Col
lege News. It's strange how at the end of each yeur
one starts reminiscing: the things which T shall re
member foremost of the year '51-'52 are the ex
citement of the freshmen as they achieved their fir
victory over the Bluejays on Campus Day how
we beat the government by opening our new, luxtur
lous. renovated commons eights months before thi
could hang up the al chandelier in thy
White House the game fight put up by the out
numbered class beanie supporters with their pet
tion . . . when we, of State College, after long meet
ings and conferences, decided that football was fea
ible while, by sheer coincidence, at approximate!
the same time rocket travel to the moon was stat:

the many sad faces when Big Fours were quickly 1
without thought abandoned for the sake of an A

Education Club

The Distributive Education divi-
sion of the Commerce Department
at State is formulating plans for
the establishment of a Distributive
Education Club, Under the direc-
tion of Reno S, Knouse, Professor
of Commerce, this organization will
become a part of the national pro-
gram,

The Distributive Education Clubs
of America are composed of high
school and college students who are
interested in the comprehension of
distributive processes, This group
first started on a community basis
and grew until 1947 at which time
it, Was set up on a national scale.
The group encompasses about 300
clubs with an active membership of
about ten thousand students. The
creed of the organization is, "We
believe in the dignity of the distr!
butive profession and in the many
opportunities it affords.”

Our college unit will have as its
general purpose experimental and
educational work in the field. While
providing its members with knowl-
edge of the Distributive Education
field, the club will also maintain
contacts with high schools, and give
service to other clubs. Several pro-
jects will be taken up by the club
such as providing leaders for di
cussion groups, holding conferences
for high school groups, and meet-
ing leaders in the field in order to
receive expert counseling,

‘The work of this club will enable
it Lo fulfill its purpose which is “to
develop capable and professional
leadership among the members who
Will soon assume important respon-
sibilities in the field of distribu-
tion.”

a tie, it was tied with a Windsor

Betty Co-ed's favorite outfit was
a white blouse and skirt. When she
wears a dress instead, it’s light col-

predominantly navy or green.

The hand-freeing shoulder bag
outshone the traditional purse.
Jewelry was worn in varied combi-

were a popular adornment or bright

Sweater girls weren't very much

Short hair styles, softly curled, have
been widely accepted, along with

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1952

A Dedication

By ABEL BLATTMAN

Graduation time always ap-
proaches with a sort of nostalgic
feeling. For those leaving there is
anxiety, for those of us who re-
main, there is a touch of sadness.
We see next year coming, knowing
that certain familiar faces will no
longer be among us. In the field
of athletics the loss of an individual
is always expected, as youth replaces
old age. And, although it is ex-
pected, and inevitable, there is al-
ways the chance that maybe he'll
be back for another season.

This point is brought out more
forcefully in college, that those peo-
ple who have done their four years’
work, and graduate, will never again
be part of the college.

It's difficult for us to picture a
State College basketball game with-
out Brown on the Court, Brown
has played four years of Varsity
ball, and was one of the classiest
players to ever don the Purple and
Gold.

It's also hard for us to realize
that when Ken Rutley hangs up
his spikes at the end of this ye
that he'll never swing the wood for
State again.

The Bolivian terror, Raoul Nunez,
won't be back on the Soccer squad,
and Jake Jacoby won't be drilling
the basketball squad, and others,
all of whom have done their job
and are being replaced.

For us, it’s going to be tough to
step in and tely fill the shoes
of our predece: We'd like to

¢ thanks to Don

who so patiently taught

us the trade of sports writing. And

we'd like to dedicate this issue to

him, and to all the graduating sen-

iors who have helped the progress
of athletics here at State

We only hope that as we com-
plete our work, we will maintain
the high ide and be able to look
back on as fine a record as those
before us can.

Chi Sig came within one run of

two runs. However, Standley bear-
ing down, forced Guinan and Raba
both to loft harmless pops to end

Old man weather certainly didn't
smile on the Intramural Softball
League this week as Monday's and
Tuesday's games had to be post-
pened as a result of the inclement
weather, However, the Rams and
Rousers, Harmless Blanks and
Grads were able to play their games
between cloud bursts. As a result
the Rams took a 17 w 11 victory over
the Rousers and the Potter Club
Grads slaughtered the Blanks 22

Burrewyhs, Bosch, Helm and Ste-
yenvon were the big guns for the
Rams as they drove home ten of the
runs. Perry at shortstop was spec-
tacular on defense as he came up
with fielding gems which
kept s from scoring.
Adams, Fenenbach, Cerwonka and
Foskett were the clouters for the
lost cause as they sparked an eight
run rally in the bottom of the sev-
enth inning. Steverson hurled for
the victors and was opposed by
Brown for the Rousers,

The Potter Grads set a new high
in the number of runs scored in one
inniny as they literally swamped
the very Harmless Blanks an: Car-
men Co'si with 13 runs in the top
of the seventh inning

that order and successively blasted
out base knovks. Howlett and Ste-
venson each pounded a homer for
the Blanks, Reckhill was the win-
ning piteher for the fourth time

Looking over the softball league

by thoughts such as the draft, mar-

these varied doubts haven't turned

Kimball canvassed this year's
xraduates of Tolumbin. Their ideas
on marriage correspond with those
typical of Slate’s Campus — “Our
xeneration of girls is ready for mar-
riage, but the boys aren't very mar-

World situation in general — will
somehow work itself out, at least in
ho worse fashion than the era of
strain and simmering conflict which
is all that the class of ‘52 has ever
known throughout the thinking of
its whole adolescence.”

Kimball sums up: “There it
is, the Class of '52, already sounding
like its own twenty-fifth reunion,
berhaps, So hard-headed, so analy-
lical, so down to earth and very
possibly. feeling a trifle alone and
abandoned. Safe now in the wide,
