Emlyn Williams
To Characterize

Dickens’ Heros

Renowned Dramatist
To Appear Tuesday

Emlyn Williams, famed portrayer
of Charles Dickens’ characters will
bow to the State College audience in
Page Hall Tuesday afternoon at 2:30
p. m. and in the evening at 8:30 p.
m. and proceed to characterize some
75 different Dickens’ heros.
Williams Simulates Dickens

In bringing to the stage the char-
acters of the Dickens novels, Wil-
liams follows in the path of the
great author who was enormously
sful at giving public perform-
s in the English-speaking world
Mr. Dickens himself came to Amer-
ica in 1867 to read in the old Stein-
way Hall. Standing before his desk,
his fantail beard and finely drawn
features illuminated by gaslight,
wearing a frock coat, white gloves
and the inevitable carnation, Mr.
Dickens duplicated the voices and
pantomined the actions of Scrooge,
Tiny Tim, Mrs. Cratchit, Nicholas
Nickleby, the two Dombeys and a
he of others,

Dickens Was Actor

Dickens’ fame as an author over-
shadows the fact that he acted and
directed in the London treatre. He
did splendidly as Shallow in “The
Merry Wives of Windsor,” and suc-
ceeded in playing six different roles
in “Mrs, Nightingale’s Diary,” which
he also directed. Dickens remarked
“I always wished to be a great act-
or, to have the public at my feet.”
Williams Acts in Films

Williams admits to the same de-
sire. But if he had to choose be-
tween writing and acting, he would
choose to write. As an actor, Wil-
liams played the leading roles in
the enormously successful plays
“The Corn is Green,” and “Night
Must Fall,” both dramas owing their
origin to his perceptive pen. He has
starred in many productions here as
well as in England. Williams has ap-

peared with the Old Vic and has
been st re of films not-
ably ‘Hatter's
ue” “The Frightened Lady,’

Major Barbara.”

When, as an almost illiterate
youth working in the mines, Wil-
the urging of an interested school
liams struggled through Dickens at
teacher, the characters made a last-
ing impression. They were the first
people that he met in the world of
books. As had Dickens before him,
he felt the challenge of bringing
these people to life in a theatre.

He had taken a year Lo select his
material and to adapt it to his

Let’s Act Now...

‘The moment: to act is here. We, who constitute
State College, must recognize the need for action, or
in failing to recognize the need for change, inevitably
slip, slowly and miserably, into the quagmire of edu-
cational mediocrity.

‘The situation, to which we refer is this: A month
ago, State College students sat down to write their
final examination papers. There were a few who were
either too weak-witted or too lazy, to walk into the
examination rooms on their own abilities. These were
the few who cheated. Student leaders on campus,
realizing the need for investigation into the “Test
Scandals” asked the Administration to consider the
matter, The Admniistration replied, in effect, that
it didn't have suffiicent information to investigate the
matter and that it should be dealt with by SA. Stu-
dent Council wrote a ietter to the Administration,
stating that SA is powerless to act in the affair, and
once again asked the Administration to restore honor
to State.

In the volley of verbal and written communications,
both SA and the Administration have voiced their
inadequacy in this matter. At present, the Adminis-
tration cannot act, for it has no way of measuring
the extent of the situation. SA cannot act, for it
has no ruling power in academic affairs. We are truly
at an impasse. There is one reasonable solution, how-
ever. Yet few have thought serlously of a remedy to
the situation—such as an Honor System. Some stu-
dents who have considered the problem have said
that it would be fine, but it wouldn't work. What
frony—that a college, devoted to the training of
teachers cannot expect its students to live honorably.
One might well ask, who will be honorable, if the
‘one who has taught him has never known the value

honor.
ot opal honor is practicable, But we agree that
the standard is not held by all. So the issue finally
reverts to the question—what standards shall we ex-
pect of teachers—what degree of maturity should be
demanded, For those who are to teach or to take any
responsible part in life, there is one sure answer.
‘Those, whom we expect to teach, have the right to
demand of their educators, the highest standards.
What better way Is there to fulfill this obligation, to
guide students in comprehending their responsibilities
as well as their potentialities, than to institute a Sys-
tem of Honor, in which, at last, each person would
feel his responsibility to meet standards.

‘Therefore, we recommend to Student Council, that
it investigate the question of establishing an Honor
System at State College similar to those which have
been so effecvtive in various other colleges across the
country. As in other colleges, where the Honor System
is a living standard, an extensive program has been
initiated, This program would involve orientation of
prospective students—informing them of the pro-
gram’s method of operation, demonstrating to them
the need for and the desirability of the Honor Code,
and finally accepting them as students here, only
upon their pledge to refrain from dishonorable con-
duct. The program would necessitate a Judiclary
board to handle offenders. Cooperation of the Ad-
ministration would be needed in expelling those who
had failed to meet this standard just as students
must be dismissed who cannot meet academic requir
ments. Futhermore, the program would need the ac-
tive participation of every student in maintaining
self-honor, -
“student Council, it is up to you to outline and
present such a program for acceptance to the student
body. For those of you who are seeking to elevate
your chosen profession as educator, this is your o|
portunity to raise the standards to a rarely prec
dented level. The caliber of the student body would
he raised by an influx of others who had acquired
new respect for a profession that at last could set
and meet its high standards. Likewise, the teaching
profession would not have to suffer for the trans-
gressions of a few weak-spined individuals who would
never try to meet any equitable standard.

Student Council, the solution is in your hands, We
wonder if you will have the ability and the desire to
a oa in mind a familiar quotation to the fleld of
education, ‘Let cach become all that he is capable of
being.” We wish to nsk you—how many people ever
exceed the standard they have set for themselves?
Let's raise our standards. At last, let us become re-
sponsible individuals capable of educating the future

generations of man.

Goon -- Read “hia !

By FRITZ

I was sitting in the Commons the
other day listening to a group be-
hind me talking over a class they
had just left. They were griping as
we all will about home work—“One
week's work in one night," I heard
one say.

Then the conversation turned
slowly to personalities, as it will,
They started on the instructor, From
there it went to people in the class
and came to rest on one girl, “She'll
pass the damn course.” This last
was from a bass voice right behind
me—obviously angry about some-
something.

When we were in elementary
school, there was one among us, who
was “teacher's pet.” If your school
was like mine, things were pretty
rough for the poor kid. He got snow
balls in the winter and hot foots in
the spring and (do laugh) his
marbles switched in the fall. Yup, we
could be pretty cruel when we want-
ed to be.

Then we grew up. We came away
to college. We were grown up, or so

little group behind me,

I wonder if anybody ever stops
to think about the person of whom
he speaks. People who don't work
in a class are usually the first out
of a class room and the ones who
avoid an instructor's office like the
plague.

Well, why does someone stay after
a class or drop into an office in an
odd moment, I think there are a
couple of reasons.

One: Maybe the student isn't get-
ting all he feels he can out of a
class. Maybe there is some point he
wants explained more fully, What
better time than right after a class
or when he has a free moment and
can stop in an office for a while.

Two: Some students learn that
teachers are human beings. Human
beings have a strange habit of be-
coming friends, when they find that
they have something in common,
like an interest in history or Eng-
lish,

What's the purpose of all this?
Let's leave that up to you. Let's let

We think it’s about time Brubacher started putting

a little faith in Uncle Sam and the U. S. Naval Ob-
servatory. When you enter the place it's like going
from one time zone into another. If the administra-
tion wants the girls to be punctual, they can at least
be punctual themselvs. —Start setting those clocks
to the correct time—Eastern Standard Time—not
Brubacher time.

We would like to comuunent, also, about the policy
at Brubacher of not letting the girls call a doctor
unless permission is granted, We think that if a girl
is sick and a doctor is needed, immediately, one should
not go through a lot of red tape to call one. Shoot

We wonder how many new problems will arise be-
cause of the television set which has recently been
placed in the lower Brubacher lounge. These should
be numerous and varied. We can't predict any of
these future woes for one and all, but we have a
few suggestions to give to would-be television experts.
If you want the set to last—keep your hands off the
aerial, keep your hands off the controls, and don't
throw books, chairs or ashtrays at it. Above all, IF
YOU INSIST UPON OCCUPYING A CHAIR, WATCH
THE SCREEN, OR ELSE MAKE ROOM FOR SOME-
ONE WHO WILL.

AVE NIHIL—

Last Tuesday night, through a process of shrewd
Judicial Interpretation, Myskania succeeded in findinys
a loop-hole in the Constitution—Article IT, Sentence
1, word 16. After consulting numerous sources, includ-
ing Webster's Dictionary and Locke's “Essay on Hu-
man Understanding,” the group proceded to hand
down a cleverly worded, lengthy interpretation of Ar-
ticle II, Sentence 1, word 16. Speaking for the majority,
Justice Lucilius stated—"We consider this a preat
victory for the common cause of liberty. This has
been, without a doubt, the greatest advance made in
the field of Constitutional law in the past 100 years.”
Justice Lucilius then proceeded to quote Abe Lincoln
—"The world will little note, nor long remember w
1 say here, but it can never forget what we did he:
Speaking for the Minority, Justice Fabius state
“We wuz robbed,”

AVE LEX—

Someone else, besides Myskania, has been fumbling,
through dusty law books this week, Now, all women
regardless of financial status or state of mind, are
forbidden to wear jeans at the dinner table. Ladies,
you have our sympathy.

AVE DIFFICULTAS—

If you are assigned to pn assembly seat, you hal
better sit in it. From now on the Dean will have full
charge of assembly absences, and rumor says that
there will be trouble ahea: for you unless you tak»

We have one question to usk—if you are on proba-
tion, do you still get one cut per semester???

AVE KNUCKLEHEADS—

We wonder if the group that puts on the daily show
in the Cafeteria Annex is going to try out for the
All-College Revue. It would be quite intere ting, since
they always bring their own cheering section, We are

One Man's Opinion

Hampered by a rather unstable
window, the first play of Tuesday
last got off to a slow start.

However, as the play progressed,
action picked up considerably, due
mainly to the fine acting job done
by Miss Diane Wheeler. Miss Wheel-
er gave a really fine performance
in her role as Henrietta Brewster.
Her facial expressions and inflec-
tions added very nicely to the over
all effect.

This sounds like a rather obvious
koski was rather inadequate in her
part. Her feeling for her character-
ization seemed superficial and am-
ateurish, if she had a feeling at all.

Congratulations should go to
Robert Lundergan who, in his first
appearance in the A. D. laboratory
productions, did rather well for
himself.

On the whole, the cast cooperated
to provide an entertaining bit of
comedy, and Mr. Crumb may feel
very satisfied, and rightly so, with
striking such a happy medium, a
feat not too often accomplished on
Page Hall stage.

The second play certainly accom-
plished the aim of its director, Mr.
Howlett, as was stated in his cur-
tain speech; namely, to transport
us into the delightful world of fan-
tasy. The mood was set immediately
upon the opening of the curtains

by the effectiveness of the imagin-
ative set.

John Lannon sustained this mood
by his characterization of a very
Lkeable old man. His portrayal im-
mediately captured the hearts of his
audience, and except for a slight
faltering at the end, was quite con-
§ stent.

Jim Conway and John Laing prov-
ed once again that small parts need
not be insignificant. Their roles,
small as they were, made an im-
pression on their audience. Their
individual characterizations were
very convincing.

The interpretation of St. Peter
was a far cry from any preconceived
idea of that venerable old man, to
this viewer, even in fantasy. His in-
terpretation, plus the costume, made
him stand out as something alien
and crude amidst the etherial at-
mosphere. But, aside from this
faulty interpretation, Mr. Goodell
did a commendable piece of acting.

Although Miss Caparis looked
quite pleasant on stage, she was not
convincing as the naive little per-
scn we were led to believe she was.

Mr. Howlett used with good re-
sults the old trick of incorporating
into the play the audience, or in
this case, the lack of it. Those peo-
ple who did attend, however, were
entertained, we feel, by two very
delightful plays.

Communications

To the Editor:

Will a death awaken the adminis-
tration to the need of a modern,
well-equipped infirmary? Having
heard the protest of approximately
one-third of our fellow students, we
would like to present the problem
to the student body.

Why do we need an infirmary?
This sounds like a rather obvious
question but in spite of its clarity,
the administration has and seems to
be overlooking the need for these
facilities. Does the new budget con-
tain any appropriations to improve
the present condition?

The recent outbreak of influenze,
constituting a mild epidemic, is but
a portion of the problem. Immediate
First Aid by trained personnel
must also be taken into considera-
tion. Since few students are able
to afford medical treatment at the
needed time, they tend to neglect
it, thus risking serious complica-
tions. In addition, the insurance
policy to whic!) many students sus-
cribe does not st adeqaute be-
cause money is often needed imme-
diately.

Wouldn't it be both logical and
practical to convert one of the

smaller residence halls or fraterni-
ty houses into an infirmary? The
cost of maintenance would scarcely
compare to the value of the advan-
tage thus derived by this move. It
is likely that this could be accom-
plished quite economically consid-
ering the size of the college. For
example: the medical fee that ex-
isted in 1946 could very well be
regulated to provide the necessary
funds for the project.

Not only would the students ben-
efit by such a program, but room-
mates and housemothers would be
relieved of the tiresome responsibil-
ities that go with caring for the
sick.

In conclusion, we sincerely feel,
that this issue merits the careful and
intelligent consideration of every
member of the administration and
the full support of each and every
member of the student body.

State To Bring
Debaters Here

Approximately 175 high school

students are expected to attend the’

First Invitational State University
High School Debate Tournament
here at State College on February
28 and March 7. At the latest count
about 25 high schools are sending
from two to six teams each, accord-
ing to Elnora Carrino, Instructor in
English,

Teams coached by Joanne Doyle
‘54, will come over from Albany
High, Milne will be represented by
teams under the direction of Rob-
ert Berkhofer ‘63, and six teams
coached by Ronald Ferguson '54,
will come over from Vincentian.
Other schools represented will be
Peekskill, Jamestown, Poughkeep-
sie, ioerty, Kingston, Hudson,
Newburgh, Burnt _ Hills-Ballston
Lake, and Jeffersonville,

This Tournament has developed
from the Debate Council project
of presenting assembly debates in
local high schools. Its purpose is to
promote more responsible speaking
among high school students, To
further this aim, critiques will be
given at the end of each debate in-
stead of regular decisions,

New Mixed Chorus
To Rehearse Mondays

A new section of the Mixed Chor-
us is open on Mondays at 3:35, an-
nounces Dr. Charles F. Stokes,
Professor of Music,

The course is open to all State
College students and no tryouts are
necessary. It is hoped that fresh-
men will take advantage of this op-
portunity since there is no longer
an orientation class, Dr. Stokes said.

Touring Troupe

Endures Trials

The manifold trials of actors
“on the boards” have been duly
experienced by seven members
of the Elementary Dramatics
class. Under the patient guid-
ance of Dr. P. B. Pettit, the
Lucky Seven presented “Re-
fund” to the Scotia High School
Assembly.

In spite of several unforeseen
difficulties, the show went on.
As coincidence had it, this was
the day that the act curtain
was at the cleaner’s. But this
did not deter Pettit's Amateur
Players. Also, the only stage
lighting was a million-watt spot
that gave the actors the impres-
sicn of performing under the
noonday sun on the Sahara
Desert.

The audience was responsive,
the faculty was cooperative, the
script was cleaned up, and the
Travelling Thespians are look-
ing forward to another success
at Castleton a week from today.

Honorary Fraternity
To Meet Wednesday

Signum Laudis will hold a meet-
ing on Wednesday, February 25, at
3:30 p. m. in Draper 141, announces
Donald Stine ‘53, President.

A new faculty secretary for the
organization will be elected at this
time and committee reports will be
received and voted upon.

At the same meeting Dean Ellen
C. Stokes will discuss the proposed
establishment of a Phi Beta Kappa
chapter at State College for Teach-
ers.

All members are urged to attend
this very important meeting, Stine
reports.

Myskania Rules
On Quorum,

ESA Questions

Declares ECA Legal,
Requests Activity Sheets

After much deliberation at their
Tuesday night meeting, the thirteen
members of Myskania reached two
of the interpretative decisions which
they were asked to make at last
week's assembly. They concern the
interpretation of “assembly” accord-
ing to the Student Council Consti-
tution and the Eastern States Asso-
ciation Conference motion.

The first decision on the inter-
pretation of “assembly” is “Since
there is no constitutional quorum,
Myskania deems that assembly re-
fers to the regularly announced
compulsory session at 12:30 on Fri-
days, or the special assemblies call-
ed by the president of Student As-
sociation or Student Council.

The second interpretative decision
made by Myskania concerning the
ESA conference motion was that:
“Since portions of the conference
are of extra-curricular interest,
(hence non-academic) Myskania
must deem that consideration of
the Eastern States Association Con-
ference by Student Association is
constitutional.”

Myskania passed both of the in-
terpretations unanimously,

Myskania also requests that Jun-
jors turn in their junior activity
sheets to the Myskania mailbox.
The sheets were passed out in their
Junior education classes, and are
used as a partial basis for decisions
regarding next year’s members of
Myskania, along with recommenda-
tions from Student Association.

Starts Budget Review

The Student Board of Finance is
reviewing budgets for the 1953-’64
year, reports Neil Brown '54, Stu-
dent Council Advisor. The Board
has already passed five budgets
which constitutes approximately
one fourth of the total number
which must be approved,

It appears, from early Indications,
that many of the budgets will be
Increased due to rising costs and
that the total expenditures for this
year will be somewhat higher than
those of last year, It was reported
by Brown.

Young men with at least two
years of college are needed to be
trained as pilots to replace the ag-
ing World War IT pilots in the U. S.
Navy. The quota for enlisting Naval
Aviation Cadets has been raised

Seein' With Mehan

By DOTTIE MEHAN

When the Statesmen bowed for
the seventh time this year against
Plattsburg, it was quite evident that
to match last year’s 13-7 won-lost
record would probably be almost im-
possible as the remaining 7 games

would have to all go into the win
column.

In the beginning of the '52-'53
campaign great things were predict-
ed for the Peds, as they seemed to
have everything. They had consid-
erable height, good ball handlers,
sharp shooters, and good reserve
What else could any team need to
have a successful season?

State lacked something and be-
cause of the failure of the team to
come through, criticism has been di-
rected toward the Coach, the team,
and even to individual players. May-
be they or some of them deserve
part of the blame or maybe not—
who can tell, But somewhere along
the line, we have avoided the real
culprits—ourselves.

The thing that State lacked is the
thing which we are capable of sup-
plying and that is student support
or a little school spirit ... You may
think that this plays a minor part,
but it doesn't. Men participating in

arsity athletics spend a lot of time

Jot of valuable time working and
practicing to improve themselves
and their team and what do they
get from it. I don't think I will be
too wrong in saying almost nothing.
What difference does it make if they
win or lose? The only ones appar-
ently affected are the coaches, play-
ers, and a few other individuals with
athletic inclinations, all which adds
up to something less than a mi-
nority. Many of the students think
that just coming to a game is a
vigorous activity itself let alone
cheering besides,

School spirit can be the difference
between success and failure of any
team, And if you ask any of the
fellows they will tell you that it al-
ways seems to be present at other
schools, where enrollment is smaller.
Last Saturday in Plattsburg the

“t. students got together a band which

played during time outs and inter-
missions. It was surprising, the bear-
ing which it had on the game. One
of the players said after the game
that the band pepped things up and
let them know some one was behind
them, The students in that school
had some spirit even though their
team is having a mediocre season.

We don't have a band and we
don't need one, but we do have

erleaders, who perform not for
everyone's entertainment, but to
help the fans cheer. Five girls don't
make very much noise alone, Cheers
are simple, the essential thing is a
good voice. The Peds have five more
home games, so how about coming
to the next game and letting the
other schools know that we are alive.

Prindle have come a long way since
practice started in December. ‘The
veterans of the squad all turned in
fine jobs in subduing their oppon-
ents. Bob Dreher ran into tough
luck again this week. He lost a real

yet to hit his stride, but Coach

Clash In Crucial

Tilt Next Week

Misfit Quintet
Tops Commuters

As the Intramural Bowling
Leagues near the end of the season
they seem to have developed an
acute case of “forfeit-itis.” The past
couple of weeks have seen more
matches forfeited than the total of
all previous games of the season.
In last Tuesday's matches at the
Rice Bowling Alleys all of the games
with the exception of one were de-
cided via the forfeit route. This lone
contest saw League B's Misfits cop
three points from the Commuters.
Rudy Body paced the Misfit quintet
as he smashed the maples for a
493 triple. John Wilson and McCor-
mick rolled 490 and 469 respectively
for the winners. Herb Safran bowled
a triple of 479 for the losing cause
of the Commuters.

In League A Kappa Beta and the
Rousers forfeited to Thurlow Hall,
the current top team in A League,
and APA, ‘

First Place at Stake

Next week will probably bring
about one of the most important
matches of this year's pin competi-
tion. This game will pit the Thurlow
Hall five against the APA team.
This match will definitely decide the
first place team in League A. Thur-
low Hall is currently leading the
APA quint 31':-8': to 33-11. If the
APA gang sweeps four points from
the Thurlow team they will move
into undisputed possession of the
top spot. On the other hand, if
Thurlow gains a split in the match,
they will retain their choice posi-
tion, leading the pack. A new addi-
tion to the Thurlow Hall roster,
Jack Hughes who is a competent
bowler in his own, may well prove
to be the deciding factor in the
outcome of this crucial game.

Causes For Forfeitures

One of the main causes for all of
the forfeits of late may be the fact
that certain teams are just about
assured of their playoff spots. This
certainly is no reason for the lower
place teams to fail to show up and
deprive the other teams of the bowl-
ing.

The State Line

By BOB ASHFIELD

In order to clear up a misconcep-
tion that seems to be confusing
some students, we would like to ex-
plain the position of this column
in relation to Women's Athletic As-
sociation, The purposes of this col-
umn is to comment and report on
any and all women's athletics that
may take place on campus, and
can include rivalry events, | class
competitions or individual perform-
ances, Since, of course, WAA spon-
sors and manages by far the great-
est part of women’s events, most of
the news concerns its work.

Therefore, in the light of this
fact, information or comments that
appear here cannot be considered
as necessarily the opinion of WAA.

As the result of Tuesday's Bas-
ketball game in which Beta Zeta
defeated Chi Sigma Theta, 34-19,
BZ emerged as the undefeated vic-
tors of the League B competition.
Chi Sig is second with two losses.

In League A, another undefeated
team, Phi Delta, is on top. Kappa
Delta follows closely behind in sec-
ond place with only one loss. Con-
gratulations are in order for these
teams that have distinguished them-
selves.

More Bouquets

While on the subject of basket-
ball, how about some praise for the
referees who did a really nice job?
These girls give up two evenings a
week ot go down to the gym to
ref, and get very little recognition
for their efforts.

WAA will hold a_ replacement
election for Junoir representatives
to Council on Monday and Tues-
day of next week. Balloting will
be under the WAA bulletin board.
A list of Juniors who have received
credit in one sport and who are
therefore eligible to vote will be
posted, Athalia Thompson, Barb
Smith, Shirley Nellis, and Jean
Rasey are running for or have been
nominated for the position.
Bowling Records

Sally May rolled a high single of
160 in last week's bowling at Rice's.
Her double, also high for the day,
was 274, Jean Hallenbeck still holds
the record, however, with a single
of 193, nad a double of 337.

State Downed
By PSTC 74-70;
Walker Hits 21

Playing their last road game of
the season tomorrow night, the
Statesmen will be going against the
Harpus Colonials in Endicott, Har-
pur fell victim to State earlier in
the year, but like last year they can
prove dangerous at home when they
squeezed out a one point victory.
With Bob Tabor and John Allasio
off the sick list, the Peds will be
at full strength and should chalk
up a victory.

Sears hits 30 for Plattsburg

Last Saturday night in Plattsburg,
a 2 point half-time deficit didn’t
prove enough as the P.S.T.C. boys
rolled to a 74-70 victory behind Jim
Sear’s 30 points, As was expected,
Plattsburg started quick as Gary
O'Leary hit with the first of his
many long sets for the night. Pete
Telfer evened the score for Albany
as he hit with a driving one hand-
er. The game continued in this man-
ner with first Plattsburg then Al-
bany holding a slim one or two
point lead, At the end of the first
half, the score was 39-37 in favor
of Albany. In the second half
Sears and O'Leary quickly tied the
score for Plattsburg. The Peds kept
pace as Bill Walker and Pete Tel-
fer hit consistently with short jump
shots. A 5 point lead held briefly
by State was the biggest gap be-
tween the two teams during the
third canto,

Fouling heavy for State

In the final quarter, personal
fouls began to play a vital role as
McDonald, Contra, and LaRoe all
were hampered with 4 personals.
LaRoe left the game early in the
fourth quarter when he fouled
Sears for his fifth foul. With about
three minutes remaining in the
game Plattsburg held a two paint
lead which was widened as Sears
fast broke and scored on a lay-up,
This was enough as the apparent
winners put on a freeze which paid

off.

Walker hit for 21 markers for his
night, while Telfer had his best
scoring night of the year with 18
points.
Walker Paces Scorers

In posting a 7-7, won-lost, record
so far this season, Bill Walker has
been the high point man with a
13.7 average per game for the Peds.
Bob Taber and John Allasio are
runners up with 10,5 and 10.4 points
per contest respectively.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Numerous re-
quests have been received by the
State Coutece News for the intro-
duction of an educational column.
In this issue the News prints the
first in a serieés of such columns.
‘Anyone interested in contributing
to this column is requested to con-
tact the Editor-in-Chief.

This first article deals with the
uses and miguses of the terminology
“educational philosophy.”)

Of all the phrases tossed so aptly
at the’embryo teacher, “educational
philosophy” is probably the most
unfortunate. That it is unfortunate
is by no means due to any lack of
sensitiveness in the phrase itself. It
has become an almost worthless
phrase simply because it has been
exploited by professional and nov-
ice alike, gradually losing signific-
ance and broadening its scope until
it suggests today only that pair of
hackneyed generalities, traditional-
ism and progressivism.

It may be argued that the term
educational philosophy has reached
its logical conclusion. It extends an
air of authority, now, over both
camps in the field of education, and
this is very probably its mit unless
a new movement in education is
launched, But is this the logical end
of educational philosophy? Can it
not be of more service to education
in general? It is not difficult to
realize that when the essentialistic
movement collapses (as it ultimate-
ly must), there will be no use for
a system of values or preferences
such as are sugested by the term.
Educational philosophy will have
served its purpose.

It will have served its purpose,
that is, unless it is turned around
and .nade to back track down its
own path, shortening its scope once
again, and gradually limiting its
meaning until it becomes concerned
primarily with the issues facing ed-
ucation in the United States today.
How much better to have teachers
concerned with exemplifying democ-
racy in the classroom, than to have
them disputing antique issues. In

teaching, as in any other profes-
sion worthy to be called such, a def-
inite system of values, desires, and
preferences is necessary so that
there will be some shortening of the
long, dark tunnel.

Let those, then, who have accept-
ed the new role of education adopt
for themselves a new educational
philosophy that will set up guides
for a systematized attack on the
faults and lackings of our educa-
tional system. Only in this way will
the needs of the country be met.

‘Teachers who lack a philosophy of
their own can never hope to be of
real service to their profession. A
teacher who majors in “classroom
teaching” instead of merely subject
matter will serve as the best means
to the end. Anyone aspiring to be a
good teacher must, of necessity,
pause somewhere in his travels in
order that he may formulate some
plan that will guide him in his
work. For some teachers the pause
s too short; others never stop at
all,

If advancement is to be made in
education, it must be carried
through at the classroom level, not
in the brains of the great thinkers.
It is up to each individual teacher,
therefore, to decide what must be
done and how it is to be accom-
plished.
