SENIORS URGED TO ATTEND CLASS MEET THURSDAY

The senior ball, class scram, graduation procedure, and general information concerning senior week will be discussed at tomor-row’s senior orientation meeting.

Sylvia Ronning, class president, emphasizes the importance of the meeting and asks all seniors to at-tend whether registered for the course or not.

"It is absolutely necessary for the smooth-running of senior ex-ercises that every graduate know what is expected of him during the next two weeks. Time will be al-lotted during the meeting for ques-tions from students on any phase of senior activity and accurate in-formation will be given by the ad-visers."

All students going on the Scram Friday at 5 p.m. must attend the meeting for last-minute instru-e--tions.

Senior ball bids are now on sale in the Business office for $2.50. Only seniors will be able to pur-chase bids until Monday, when sales will be opened to the entire student body.

The ball is to be held in the Sainte Claire hotel Saturday, June 16, from 9 p.m. till 1 a.m. Attend-ance will be limited to 150 couples. Matt Mateo’s 16-piece orchestra has been engaged to play for the annual affair.

Miss Ronning announces that information sheets passed out at last week’s meeting, giving de-tailed accounts of graduation pro-cedure, may still be had by ask-ing her personally. "Any student not possessing the information sheet will be at a distinct disad-vantage as graduation approach-es," says the president.

’Madame Mei WillAddress Students, Faculty Today on Chinese Women afrWar

One of China’s most notable figures, Madame Mua-Chuan Mei, will discuss Chinese women at war at 2 p.m. today in room SI12. The discussion is open to all students and faculty members who are in-terested. Following the address students are invited to attend a tea at 3 p.m. in the Student Union. Faculty members are invited to a later tea at 3:45, given by Dr. Blanche Carrier. Madame Mei was

born in Hong Kong and was edu-cated in the United States, where she received her A. B. from Co-lumbia university in 1915. She is married to Dr. H. C. Mei, an at-torney and Masonic leader in China. She has only ’ recently learned of the safety of her hus-band in the Philippines.

In the latest issue of "Who’s Who of China", Mm. Mei’s name ap-peared as one of the 20 women so honored.

"Mrs. Mei is indeed well quali-fied to consider the topic of Chi-nese women at war," declares Dr. Carrier. "Every person on campus should take advantage of this unique opportunity."

Madam Mel has spoken to many groups in China and in this coun-try. She is speaking to students and faculty here through the cour-tesy of Dr. Blanche Carrier, who asked Madame Mel to address her race relations class. MADAME MEI

SymphonyConcert June 12 Features Edith Eagan, Piano

San Jose State college symphony orchestra’s annual spring concert will be presented Tuesday evening, June 12, in Morris Dailey auditori-um with pianist Mrs. Edith Eagan feature soloist.

Mrs. Eagan will play the Beetho-ven Piano Concerto No. 1 in C Major, conducted by her husband, Thomas E. Eagan, and accom-panied by the orchestra.

Numbers to be played by the Symphony are: Carnival Overture, Op. 92, by Dvorak; Rustic Wed-ding Symphony, Op. 26, Goldmark; and Prelude to the Meistersinger, by Wagner.

Tuesday’s concert will mark the 30th performance of Mrs. Eagan as a regular member of the or-chestra.

ORIGINAL BITS TO BE PRESENTED IN GILLIS’ SHOW

Betty Doyle, Stella Pinoris, Bar-bara Baumann and Eida Beth

Payne will present original mane-logues on Dr. Hugh Gillis’ Rep-retiore program, which will be presented as an experiment on Thursday and Friday nights of

’this week in the Little Theater, starting at 8:15.

Admission is by invitation for the first evening of the perform-ance but students will be admitted free of charge on Friday night.

"Study-1945", is the title of Betty Doyle’s selection. It has to do with reminisces of the past. The first meeting of a young bride and her mother-in-law is the theme of Stella Floor’s’ "First Visit".

"Search For Glory", dealing with a WAC who comes home to tell of her experiences, is the substance of Barbara Baumann’s presentation; comedy along hypo-chondriac lines is Elda Beth Payne’s "Good For What Ails You" exposition of thoughts in a doctor’s waiting room.

Designed by Wendell Johnson, speech instructor, the setting for the program will be very simple. A simple bit of "isolated realism" in the form of a background will prevail during the Noel Coward one-act play, "Fumed Oak". The monologues and Shakespearean scenes will be given against the stark black of the cyclorama, ac-cording to Mr. Johnson. The stage-craft class is constructing the set.

PERSONNEL TESTS Personnel tests will be given

June 9 from 8 to 9 o’clock. They will be given again September 26 to 28.

No exams or tests will be giv-en the week before final examin-ations. However, teachers hav-ing 10 o’clock classes on Friday may give tests on Monday, June 11, due to the fact that there will be no classes at 10 Friday because of the Recognition Day assembly.

. . . EDITORIAL . . . Hear Ye, Germ Carriers

Some of the students here are so-o-o generous!

There’s the student who catches frequent colds, or has asthma, and generously coughs and sneezes around without even attempting to cover these explosions of organisms commonly known as germs.

Then there is the sweet kid who passes his ice cream cone, his half-chewed-on apple or candy bar, his cigarette, and the girl who lends her lipstick out and both of whom generously pass on a good, serviceable case of Vincent’s Angina (trench mouth).

We realize that this is thoughtlessness on the part of the student, but thoughtlessness doesn’t prevent those busy little germs from doing damage. And it’s not really fair to the other students who do try to be careful about staying home with their colds and covering their sneezes, and in general, keeping their germs to themselves.

Finals are too close for comfort and the average student doesn’t enjoy the insecure prospect of ha,:iing his end of quarter work inter-fered with by picking up some little infection.

Its about time some of us start acting like college students, who are supposed to know without being told about such things.

It is only good manners to be considerate of others.

Softball Race Upset By Sluggers; To Play Doubleheader Again

Monday night tne softball league race was again knocked into a muddle when the Eleventh Street Sluggers pulled a surprise win over the Cardinals, dumping them 9-8.

Gamma Phi Sigma won the oth-er half of the double-header, de-feating Beta Chi Sigma 10-5, be-hind the four-hit pitching of Gam-ma Phi’s Jerry Brown.

The Cardinals were riding along nicely in second place with three wins and one loss, when Eleventh Street pulled the upset. Going into the first half of the last inning, the score stood 8 to 3 .in favor of the Cardinals. Then the fire-works began.

With one out, and half of the Sluggers team on their way home, they suddenly came to life. After two errors, a walk and four hits, the score read 9-8 in favor of the Eleventh Street gang.

The Eleventh Street team play-ed out the last half of the seventh inning with only six men, but set the Cardinals down with no hits and no runs behind the steady pitching of Walt Fletcher.

In the other contest, Gamma Phi won its fourth victory of the season, setting Beta Chi down in seven innings, 10-5.

It’s interesting to note that only nine hits were made between the two teams, Gamma Phi getting five while Beta Chi was driving out four. Errors decided the game, and Beta Chi Sigma made more. Their pitchers have been lacking support all season, losing what would otherwise be well-earned wins.

Beta Chl was still in the game by the end of the fifth inning, the count being only 45-3 against them. However, in the sixth and seventh cantos Gamma Phi racked up an additional five runs, while Beta Chi was getting only two.

Last night the Spartan Daily played the Eleventh Street Slug-gers in a "crucial" tilt, and Beta Chi Sigma met the Cardinals. Re-sults will be published in tomor-row’s Daily.

Tonight: Delta Sigma Gamma vs. the Cardinals, and Spartan Daily vs. Gamma Phi Sigma.

The results, some of which appeared in the Spartan Daily, were not encouraging. We then conducted a check test in a representative group of English classes. The results were deplor-able.

That the majority of white stu-dents will not dance with colored students does not greatly concern us. But when a large plurality of supposedly educated stude nts would bar Negro, Mexican, Fil-ipino and Japanese-American stu-dents from residing in their room-ing houses, thus erecting barriers to their obtaining an education, it is time to get alarmed. When a large plurality would not have qualified Negro teachers instruct white children, it is time to ex-amine the educational system which makes these attitudes pos-sible.

These attitudes are based on prejudice. Prejudice is pre-judg-ment�arriving at conclusions be-fore obtaining the facts. We pride ourselves on being educated, yet many of us betray our ignorance on the minority problem.

From college students will come the leaders of tomorrow. How can we expect competent leadership from people who demonstrate such confused attitudes on one of the vital issues of the day?
