“How much I have missed you
since last we were together.” En-
dearing words such as these are
written in various letters posted
around the school. Anatol, the re-
cipient, has shown himself to be a
popular fellow. To help clear up
any mystery that might be con-
nected, in one of the Elementary
Dramatics three one-act plays, to be
presented January 17, Anatol, alias
Gerald Gorman, is the great lover
in the comedy, “Episode.” He is an
all around fellow and a lady’s love
means little to him.
Gorman has really given his
whole heart, soul, and blood to
make the play a great success, He
arrived one evening at rehearsal
and almost collapsed from lack of
blood. Actually, he gave this vital
substance to the Bender Laboratory
on South Lake Avenue.

AD Plans Performance
For Scotia High School
According to Joseph Purdy ‘91,
Advanced Dramatics is proud to
announce that they will present the
play “Proposal” by Anton Chekov.
Tt will be given Wednesday ut the
Scotia High School, Scotia, New
York during an ussembly.
‘The characters are as follows: Sura

seen in the halls are not for the
freshman class. Rather they are
significant of another of the three
plays which Elementary Dramatics
will present,
“Raisin’ the Devil” by Robert
Gard is a New York State Folk
play taking place in the last cen-
tury. Thomas Holman has acquired
a new role as the fabulous minister,
Ren Dow, who has the difficult job
of Christianizing Albany. His main
trouble comes when he attempts to
convert ‘ier family.
King, better known around State
as Edward Stecrns, is a familiar
character around these parts, a
horse thief. His daughter, Jenny,
portrayed by Joyce Shafer, is pur-
sued by one of the local boys, Don-
ald Putterman or as he is now
known, Bill Sparks. Romance tri-
umphs but not until a major mir-
acle is performed.
Archtuid Mae Joist’ play “Air
Raid” is quite a Gsimite contrast
to the other two productions. Orig-
inally written for the radio, it is
now being adapted to the stage. A
deep poetical drama, the setting of
“Air Raid” is in a mythical coun-
try during a ficticious war.
Robert Donnelly is having diffi-
culty with the sound effects for
the play. At the end of the produc-
tion most of the cast are killed by
machine gun fire and bombs, It also
seems that Donnelly allows the
players to die first and then he
sounds the guns. He has been re-
tired to the rear of the auditorium
along with his sound effects and
has to use telepathy to judge when
the planes are to arrive.

OK’s Holiday
From Assembly
According to the year's assembly
programs, a business meeting was
scheduled for this week's assembly,
Since there is no business to be
discussed and this fact was not
known in sufficient time to plan
entertainment, Assembly will not
convene today.
At the Student Council meeting
Wednesday evening, it was an-
nounced that the rivalry ping pong
games would be held next week,
and the bowling matches would
© place the following week.
As a token of sympathy expre
d by the students for Dr. Evan
Collins, President of the College,
on the death of his daughter, Stu-
dent Council voted that a collec-
tion be taken up in the next assem-
bly, which would be donated to the
Rheumatic Heart Disease Ward of
the House of the Good Samaritan,
Boston where Miss Collins was
treated,
The council also discussed what
action should be taken with the
Big-4 fund, a sum of $700, which
has been accumulated from t
class Big-4's, the Christmas Big-
and State Fair contributions. ‘The
general feeling was that the money
should go toward improvement of
the school. Suggestions as to a
Worthwhile investment of the fund
include returning the money to the
ch 's who contributed same,
starting a scholarship or loan fund
for students, and using the money
for decorations and improvement of
the cafeteria, TL was proposed that
the Commons be improved by add-
ing more tables and chairs, another
ping pong table and installing a
ventilating system, In the next as-
scinbly students will be requested
to offer suggestions for the expen-
diture of the Big-4 fund

Teacher Shortage
Causes Revision
The State Education Department
has decided to continue the issu-
ance of renewable high school
teaching certificates until March 1,
1951. These certificates must be re-
newed each year for a period of
five years upon evidence of contin-
ued study on the part of the “in
service” teacher, This is a change in
policy only for the teaching year,
1950-1951. The department compil-
ed statistics Jast fall. and recently
arrived at a point where it could
make this decision,
The reason for this change is
that certain flelds of high school
have present-day short-
ages, even though State College
doesn't train for most of the fields
in which there is evidence of a
shortage.
Jommerce, Library Need Teachers
The State Department does not
want to mandate the fifth year re-
quirement to one field of high
school teaching at a time. They feel
that the high school teacher supply
and demand will close most aca-
demic fields to fourth year gradu-
ales except Commerce wid Library
by June of 1951.
This renewal ot teacning certifi-
cates means that all State College
fourth-year graduates this year, will
be eligible to receive renewable cer-
lifleates, and may register with the
T.P.B., from which they were ex-
ded up to now.
Mathews Slates Meeting
Students should ve reintnded that
the holding of a renewable certifi-
cate does not mean that they can
wo anywhere to teach, for schools
are still required to give preference
to the fifth year candidate,
Elmer C, Mathews, Head of
Teacher Placement Bureau, will
hold a meeting next Friday in Room

dents not registered with the bu-

More Handbooks ; ye
Common-Staier
Too often, when a member of Student Associa-
tion wants to know what is in the Constitution,
or who the officers of an organization might be,
he has no way of finding out. He either asks un-
til he finds another student who can tell him (ap-
proximately), or he borrows the Handbook of some
freshman,
We should have a Handbook that is available
to all students every year. Every member of Stu-
dent Association should be able to bring with him
to Assembly his Handbook containing a recent
and standard copy of the constitution and the
budget.
It has been argued that it would cost too much
to print’ 1500 Handbooks every year. It certain-
ly would cost a lot if all the books were the hand-
some, stiff-cover, bound copies that we publish
now. Binding alone costs between fifty and sixty
cents a book, on our present Handbooks. A bound
book is pleasant to look at, and very durable, but
it isn’t necessary.
—_
Goodlooking stapled books with soft covers
could be printed. According to an estimate by the |
present printer (Johnson Press), 1600 stapled ll
books with soft covers would cost $560. The pres- \ oo
ent Handbook printing cost, for only 600 books,
is $522. These figures do not include the costs of
stamps, mailing, phone and other expenses in-
cidental to distributing the books.

In other words, by discontinuing the bound coyv-
ers and having stapled books, 900 more Hand-
books could be issued without raising by much

CASE OF THE MISSING EQUIPMENT ...
You ought to know that some of our athletic
equipment valued at $129 has been removed from the
gym without permission. The storeroom was broken
into by an unknown person or persons. No one knows
whether or not it was State students, but if you have
any information regarding t's, contact Coach Hath-

The table lackig in the Cormions is being used

Educator Defends
Certificate Policy
“Certification,” says Herbert A.
Clark, Assistant Professor of Edu-
cation and Child Study, Smith Col-
lege, “‘serves to protect the teach-
ing profession from abuse in com-
munities where certain _penny-
pinching policies encourage the hir-
ing of cheap and poorly trained in-
dividuals.”
He goes on to say, in his article
entitled, “Teachers: Qualified or
Queer?" which appeared in the De-
cember issue of Education, “The
dilemma is how to set up a certi-
fication policy which determines
minimum standards of preparation
but does not restrict and confine
would-be teachers into courses
which are either out-of-date or
which are too concerned with pica-
yunish details. The total breadth
of the teacher preparation is fully
as important as the specific sub-
jects, in fact the pattern of this
breadth indicates in some measure
the general philosophy of teach-
ing.”
Truman, Dewey Outline
Program For Legislators
All eyes this week, on the na-
tional political stage, turned to
the Capitol hill in Washington
and Albany when President
Truman and Governor Dewey
addressed their respective legis-
lative bodies. Each, with
thoughts of the approaching fall
elections in mind made the
opening volley in the battle to
capture political control.
President Truman specifically
asked Congress for some chang-
es in the present tax system, to
provide additional revenue, pas-
sage of the Brannan Farm bill,
and repeal of the Taft-Hartley
Act,
On the State level, Governor
Dewey announced plans for a
budget reduction and stated
present taxes should not be in-
creased. He also requested the
Federal Government to aban-
don its taxing of gasoline, mak-
ing this a source of state reve-
nue, In keeping with this sug-
gestion, he also requested a re-
duction of the federal grants-
in-aid as they now stand.

benefited both the graduate hunt-

Area Group Aims At Unity

A new organization known as
CASDA, short for Capital Area
‘hool Development Association, has
pean recently formed, Purpose of this
group is to contribute to the im-
provement of practice and to help
bring theory and actual school sit-
ations in closer relationship. ‘This
organization held its first meeting
December 14 and with some of its
objectives it’ may be influential upon,
the students of State College, es-
pecially the gradaute students
This association, consisung of Al-
bany and Oneonta State Teachers
Colleges and thirty-six school
tems, plans to improve educational
procedure by diffusing and sharing
information and new ideas among
the members,
By becoming more intimately ac-
quainted with the association mem-
bers, the prof on campus can
take the available materials and
use them in the classrooms for il-
lustrations. They may also ind)
to the graduate students the ac
problems of the member schools.
The students will not only bene-
fit from these methods, but various
shools will provide more opportun-
ilies for the students to work in
them and to become acquainted
with high school personnel, who
are already in the field. The par-
ticipating ‘schools will constitute a
laboratory through which one can
analyze the various situations. Both
cooperating colleges will provide
advisory service, research functions
and physical facilities. Other than
this, the association plans to bring
into the college some high school
teachers and administrators to par-
licipate in seminars, workshops and
to consult with the classes

One Man's Opinion
Three weeks ago today, we saw
what I consider to be the best AD
lab presentation so far this year.
It was a highly emotional melo-
drama that moved steadily to a
violent climax which was thorough-
ly satisfying and convincing to the
audience. As director, Joan Perine
should be congratulated on a fine
job of all around production, espe-
cially the casting.
I would hesitate to choose be-
tween Martha Downey and Dave
Shepard as a recipient for the
highest laurels. Both did an excell-
ent job of sustaining their char-
acter throughout the play, which is
a commendable feat in itself.
Especially pleasing were Dave and
Martha's facial portrayals and very
natural movements about the stage.
We all remember vividly the
breakfast action in the second
scene, the two parents as they
heard the news of their son's death,
the struggle between the two for
possession of the paw, and finally,
the climatic action of the last two
wishes.
The rest of the cast was over-
shadowed by the two principals.
Joseph ‘Furdy was rather unconvin-
cing and weak in his part, Walt
Kellar was adequate, and John
Lindberg made us rely too much on

our previous knowledge of the play.
In the behind stage group, I
wculd like to single out the make-
up creator. Very frequently, I think
that this department overdoes it-
self, but even sitting as I was in
the front of the auditorium, I was
not aware of undue grease paint,
but only of a well done job that
added greatly to the character's
and the play's success. Another be-
hind stage act that impressed me
was the excellent timing of the fi-
nal curtain.

blue spotlight on the fireplace it
the last scene. I have written after
the word sets, “adequate, but not
spectacular,” and “disconcerting”
for the mechanical difficulty of the
door. But all these criticisms are in-
deed slight compared to the way I
criticized the audience for its un-
warranted laughter during the sec-
ond scene. Were the remarks of
members of the audience that pro-
voked this laughter really neces-
sary?
How these comments will agree
with yours is unknown to this spec-
tator, but I think it is safe to say
that we all felt this play to be a
fitting program for the last assem-
ply of the year 1949

~ control and we want a new sport
The Spectator
By HARVEY MILK ——!'
Varsity basketball was brought
back to State in '46 and the only
thing to change in its program
since then are a few of the teams
we play and the players themselves,
It's about time for the much need-
ed changes — finding a basketball
court to play on and the removal
from student control of all varsity
sports.
Although I have mentioned two
changes above, the first would be
taken care of if the second change
is brought about, Once varsity sports
are out of the hands of the entire
student body, plans can be made
for the expanding of our sport pro-
gram without the fear that one or
two “rebel rousers” will lead the
student body against this move-
ment. Now MAA is stopped from
making plans in advance because
it has to wait for 1200-students to
make up their minds as to how
much of their money they should
spent for each item. Under the
present set up we cannot schedule
basketball games in advance. If
control was separate, plans could be
made for five or more years in ad-
vance if we wish to, But not now.
Under our set up we have to fight
for every penny and at the drop
of a hat our basketball or baseball
program can be stopped. There is
no security whatsoever under our
set up that we will have any sports
program here at State next year or
not, And in plain words that
STINKS!
Improve the Conditions
If varsity sports are taken out of
student control it can be made into
a profit’ making organization and
turn these profits over for the bet-
terment of the athletic program,
Permanent means of transportatoin
can be procured, a better place to
play our games can be gotten—and
it's about time for that. Now the
team is playing on a court smaller
than most high school courts. Now
the varsity and junior varsity both
have to practice at the same time
in our “band-box" and that ain’t
good! The conditions which are
forced on our team are no good
and the sooner the change the bet-
ter for all. If we had a field house
or Armory to practice and play in
maybe more men will want to play
on our team and the quality of the
team might then increase; the cy-
cle could repeat until someday we
might look around and find a top
notch team here at State. Also a
training table could be had if
enough money is made.
No More Problems for You
Under our set up if a new sport
is wanted we have to bring up be-
fore S.A. reasons for this and that
and half of the people don't know
what is going on, only that Joan
Jones is going to vote against this,
because someone on the baseball
team voted against giving money to
If there is no
and there is enough money for it
tart the sport. Under a separ-
nization there would be no
problems for the students to worry
their little heads about—everything
would be taken care of by a coun-
cil made up of several faculty mem-
bers and several members from
MAA council. All problems would be
taken care of — your student tax
would be lowered—if you don't want
to go see any games you won't
feel that you're losing any money
—and you won't hear any argu-
ments as to how much the ping-
pong balls are going 'o cost you.
‘The time ts ripe for action to be
taken and remove varsity sports
from the control of the students.
Our teams are handicapped. They
are playing under poor conditions
Give them and yourselves the break
that can bring a decent athletic
program to State. Before the end
of the school year a proposal will
- be brought up before S.A. to re-
move varsity athletics from stu-
dent control—give it your support
it's time to rove to a bigger court,
The Case of the Lost Basketballs
Things get pretty bad when six
basketballs and one clock are lost
from the intramural — basketball
§ league. Six teams were suspended
—at this time three were reinstat-
ed. Maybe we should buy a watch
dog to keep guard of the equip-
ment — yes! things are bad when
college students can’t keep track of

Teaching on a Carribbean Island,
where there is no income tax and
where servants to look after facul-
ty members abound, sounds like a
pretty good deal, doesn’t it?
Such is the situation of Dick
Hayford '49, who is now teaching
math and physics at Ruston Acad-
emy in Havana, Cuba,
Ruston is primarily a co-ed pre-
paratory school for students inter-
ested in engineering. Many of its
graduates eventually attend M.LT.
One of the greatest difficulties
that Dick has encountered is the
language barrier, Since the stu-
dents are versed in Spanish, Eng-
lish, French and/or some other
European language, various termi-
nology has to be changed to fit the
students’ backgrounds. There is a
section for Spanish-speaking pu-
pils and one for those who speak
English, Dick teaching in the lat-
ter.
Overcrowded classes just don’t
happen with Ruston's 500 students,
64 teachers and 76 servants, Cours
and subject matter vary to the ex-
treme that a Cuban third year
Physics student may not be as well
trained as an American general
science student.
Havana js a cultural center to
the extent that its Philharmonic
orchestra is largely composed of
the best of European artists who
fled the war. The faculty itself is
rather cosmopolitan, and the stu-
dents have had war and travel ex-
periences to make them a distinc-
tive group.
According to Hayford, positions
in Cuba, and the mainland of
South America, are administered
through the United States Office of
Education and anyone wishing to
gain foreign experience in this area
should write this office for further
information,
