The Geneva Conference of Foreign Ministers is again tackling the problems of German reunification and European security. The Western powers will demand a treaty signed by the Big Four and a united Germany which will provide safeguards against aggression. It is strange that a nation we would have "agriculturallzed" ten years ago is now being wooed by both the East and the West, engaged in a titantic ideological struggle. The industrial strength of Germany and its strategic location in Europe may well be the factors which tip the scales in years to come.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1955

Follow The Leaders . . . The News wishes to call the attention of

every organization that is facing problems of leadership and apathy; every class that is trying to find unity; and every member of Student Association who believes that spirit and constructive action are results of a past era at State College, to the work accomplished by the Junior class this year.

Among other things, they have originated a Junior Weekend, plans for a revamped banquet, and a completely new and different Junior Prom. They are probably the only class in State College history to be chided by Myskania because they wanted to do too much. The officers inform us that these new activities and events have been planned, as any new activity and event is planned, primarily to create class spirit and unity. Their success can be measured by the response from the class. To date, class meetings have actually been crowded; the class as a whole, not just certain individuals or factions, is working on Junior projects, and last week, an almost unheard of event took place. The class voted unanimously to commend their leaders for the excellent job they were doing.

It is a remarkable record for two reasons. The annual "Junior Slump" has been as much of a tradition here as the Rivalry Sing. And this particular class of '57 almost faded from existence in its Sophomore year, due to a supposed "lack of interest." The rebirth and success of the Junior class should explode the commonly accepted myth that there is in all parts of State College student life, "lack of interest." We believe that spirit and interest will always arise under capable, enthusiastic leadership. The Junior class is fortunate in having such leadership, and we commend the leaders, and the class as a whole, for the excellent work they have done this year.

Tonight, not just the Juniors, but the entire school will have the chance to journey a short distance to the Circle Inn. The News advises that if you have not already done so, that you dust off your formal, or semi-formal attire and plan to attend. In addition to seeing the Junior class in action, you will probably have the most enjoyable evening you have had here at State College, in a long, long time. —D.T.K.

Progress . . . In an effort to clear up some of the con

fusion which surrounds the first week of school in September when so many freshman receptions are scheduled, and Activities Day in October, Student Council has appointed a committee to investigate and come up with some solutions. Last week the Improvement of Activities Committee, composed of three Council members, presented an excellent plan which, if put into effect, would solve many problems.

Basically, the plan states that Activities Day be reorganized as an Activities Week in which two organizational receptions would be held each night of the week. The committee has combined all the organizations on campus into ten groups in order to limit the receptions to two each night for five nights.

For instance, Pedagogue, State College News, Primer and Press Bureau would become the Publications Group and would hold a joint reception one evening in the Upper Lounge of Brubacher while another group, say the Religious Clubs, would be receiving freshmen in the Lower Lounge. Each organization would be entitled to a reception and would have an equal chance to present themselves to the freshmen.

This would also eliminate Activities Day as it stands now—with all the organizations spending time and money preparing booths and displays for a pitiful number of freshmen who do show up. Instead, the frosh would be given a chance to "sign on the dotted line" at each of these receptions and would better understand just what they are doing. Revamped, Activities Week would be culminated with the traditional banner presentation and Sophomore skit in Page Hall.

This committee has done a commendable job and has accomplished something that has been badly needed for some time. They are continuing along this line and are now in the process of reworking the Social Calendar for next year. It is encouraging to see that Student Council is awakening to the many problems caused by overcrowding, existing in this college and is attempting to do something about them.

—A.J.C.

"When they asked who was dead, He s tammered and said, I don' t know—I just came for the ride."

SANS SATIRE Since its conception, Homecoming Weekend has never been what

could conceivably be considered a success. The responsibility for this failure, must, of necessity fall upon the s tuden t body. This year a greater homecoming than ever has been planned. The only way it can be a success is through our active part icipation. Hence, for those of you who have trouble reading between the lines, we would like to issue the following plea: G O ! ! ! ! ! DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS

Is anyone missing a small bear or a large raccoon? Though the "hood invasion" a t Bru has been repulsed, a new wave of marauders in the form of freakish furry creatures has taken up the at tack. Really, watch the lock on tha t cage door! We don' t want our beloved grads to be devoured by these monsters! WE LOVE A PARADE

Speaking of monsters, we have seen a weird preview of things to come in the near future—tomorrow in fact. I t seems t h a t thir teen of State 's familiar faces will be emulat ing charac te rs from a science fiction story, and will "float" down Ontar io Street with the greatest of ease. Anyone with an interest in creative ideas and innovations for our school functions cannot afford to miss our own parade.

MARIGOLD GARDENS Something has finally been clone to alleviate the private wrestling

matches in Bru's date rooms. They've made it a Varsity sport! This brings the total to five, and once more proves the athlet ic depar tment is growing r ight along with the colleges and with the t rends.

QUOTABLE QUOTES

A few choice experiences from first semester s tuden t teachers : The one whose student, when asked to use "primit ive" in a sentence,

told her that the "primitive" was 99 square inches. The s tudent teacher who, in an effort to s t imulate imaginative use

of vocabulary, brought in a twisted hanger and asked her s tudents to describe it. She got such grand eloquent replies as, "Looks like a bent hanger ." Seeking to chastise the students, she told them they'd never be able to go home and tell their paren ts wha t they had seen in class. "Sure we will," came the rapid reply. "We saw a crazy teacher."

*7!4e Una^iiaJUe Slump By CHARLES BECKWITII '55

Days are long, boring; Nights are longer, sleepless. There is nothing to be

seen, felt or heard; Life is a complete void,

a vacuum. Then, suddenly, you realize

tha t Nothing is wrong; It 's just another slump!

Since time immemorial a problem has and will face (ad infinitum) the species commonly called Man. This problem has been given the name of the "slump," and is defined by Webster as ". . . a marked decline or falling off, as in at tent ion, interest, activity . . ." Often used by us procrast inators as a .seemingly legitimate excuse for neglecting duties, the s lump creeps periodically into the lives of most college s tudents . There are the freshman slump, the Sophomore .slump, the Junior and Senior slumps, and do and behold!) I recently discovered tha t there is the graduate slump, a slump which out-slumps all other slumps.

I am convinced that the .slump was conceived at Albany State, but if I am wrong, who will dare deny tha t it has found a permanent residence here? Frosh fall into this lethargic state when their lust for home overcomes their sense of duty and their allegiance to Alma Mater; Sophomores have usually forgotten about home, and are still too unsettled even to consider allegiance. Rivalry no longer has quite (lie same delicious flavor it had last year. So, look out. Mr. Slump! Here come the Sophs!

Juniors are completely lost . . no home and no Rivalry ilhut wonderful tool used for unification and making new friends). Having been given the task of searching for something new . . . the acquisition of the "professional a t t i tude" um at t i tude, by the way, which can be found only With a considerable degree of difficulty), the Juniors find themselves quite frustrated and are easily flapped m that, web of lassitude, the slump.

Practice teaching divorces Seniors from State ; the Seniors much prefer grading test papers and at tending teaching conferences to former college routine. As soon as his class fails to grasp a point upon which the future teacher dwelled at ureal, length, lie t I.e. the Senior), too, is a ready victim of the slump.

One might think tha t graduation would be the terminal point for the slump, since the ever-hallowed bachelor's degree has already been obtained. Alas and alack! It's not so! With a new, firm set of convictions and a strung desire to further his education and obtain another degree (more money, you know!), the ex-Senior emerges the following September as a grad student. Too much work ol an academic nature over the past lour years soon serves as the impetus lor the mail's becoming submerged in (he darkest, most dreadful of nil slumps. "I wonder," says the grad, "If (his slump business will never cease? Is life nothing but one slump al ter another'. '" What i;, (he answer?

Kather ine Hepburn can do no wrong, it's no surprise to me t h a t she does a fine job in Summer t ime. The story itself deals with an old maid on a holiday in search of love, which is not a new idea by any means, but Ka ther ine and Rossano Brazzi, who plays her lover, both manage to rise a bit above the story, and make something quite p leasant out of it. The story is set in Venice, and for about two hours you see every building, every canal worth seeing in Venice. Gondolas, too! Adventure At Madison

Russell Endorses Ohio Governor Lausche For Democratic Candidacy

By DAVID Last week, Georgia's Senator

Richard Russell, an influential conservative member of the Democrat ic Pa r ty , and a candidate for the Democrat ic President ia l nominat ion in 1952, s ta ted his personal choice for t h e position in 1956. Russell s tands behind F r a n k Lausche, who is serving his four th term as Governor of Ohio. The possibility t h a t he may be the "compromise candidate" of t he liberal and conservative wings of t he par ty mer i t s more t h a n a passing glance a t Lausche's record, I n 1932 he rose from a municipal judgeship in Cleveland to become Mayor of the city. Prom there, de spi te the opposition of his county's organization, h e achieved the par ty 's bid for governor. Elected in 1944, his a t t empt a t re-election failed. 1946 was a Republican year anyway you look a t it. I n 1948 he was re tu rned to office and h a s never left it.

Lausche and the Democratic Par ty are peculiar bed-fellows. I n the past few years, outside interests have dominated the par ty and its central issue has been a negative one, namely to purge the late Senator Robert Taft from his Senate seat. In t h e last a t t empt to do this, they nominated a Sta te Auditor to do the job. Joe Ferguson was swamped and his explanat ion for the resounding defeat is somewhat typical of his insipid character . He said, "The reason I got beaten so bad was tha t the Democrats didn' t go out and vote. Of course if they'd voted, I might have got beaten worse. But you always have the consolation of thinking you would have won." I t is a credit to Lausche's ability t h a t he did not support Ferguson, indeed he had deep admirat ion and respect for Taft . Lausche had a t t h a t time, and has now, an effective personal organization which has enabled him to amass amazing voting power to overcome both the lack of a strong

KENDIG '57 par ty organization and the entrenched Republican machine, which h a s elected Republican Senators consistently, both which have little effect on Lausche. I n the latest election, Lausche swamped Charles Taft, Bob Taft 's brother, by some 425,000 votes. Lausche has proved to be a conservative independent, who frowns on organized labor in politics. He was strangely mute during the last two Democratic Presidential campaigns.

I n this progressive Governor, with a s trong organization from a s ta te lominated equally by interests, the Democrats may have their next President.

Tuesday evening this reporter a t tended the Frosh election rally in Brubacher 's game room. Th i s column was originally to describe the enthusiasm shown by the candidates and voters—there were two campaign posters on t h e walls and the number of frosh present was highly disappoint ing; this column was intended to report the number and type of quest ions asked by the frosh of their candidates—one frosh asked a question; the rest were asked by the upperclassmen. It appears tha t the recent upsurge of interest shown by the frosh in State 's activities is only superficial If the rally can be used as evidence.

Evidently, from the number of candidates for office who did not present, themselves to their fellow

classmates, some of the frosh candidates are running because the;, forgot to decline or merely because they want to show tha t they have tha t old class spirit. Some of the candidates probably had valid reasons for being absent, but certainly this could not possibly hold t rue for the approximate one-third who did not show up. The election rally is an important p a r t of campaigning for office. Are these absent can didates really interested in holding a class office?

During the interrogation period for S tudent Council candidates, only one question was asked, and thai was asked by an upperclassman. But perhaps the frosh knew who they were voting for before the rally. Ii is feasible t h a t they are following along in the manner which seems to be the tradit ion at State, n a m e b voting on popularity and not on ability.

The only thing that can be said for the freshmen who found .something better to do from 7:31) to 8:31) Tuesday evening is that they surely will be the first to complain when their class government hits a Miag

Last Saturday a tough Oswego soccer team handed the Albany "11" their fifth setback of the year at the former's field. The game was marred by a strong wind which was blowing across the playing field toward Lake Ontario, causing the team with the wind at its back to have an advantage.

Just ten seconds after play began the Lakers with the wind at their backs, passed the ball to Bill Thompson who

registered the first Oswego goal. Fifty seconds later Lynn Thompson of Oswego got a ball up into the wind and it sailed past Ped goalie Tito Guglielmone for the home-team's last score of the day. Al-

One always the ball in neutra l territory unti l reads and hears of the individual Ed Jones passed to Ray Costillo who players and how well they played, relayed the ball to Bob Backer and

First, to Joe Garcia for the m a r velous way he has handled the Peds. Each year he seems to lose the key men but year after year he goes about rebuilding and comes up with a fighting team.

To Don Canoniea much credit must be given for his handling of the JV's. A top Booter last year he has helped many a new Ped Booter through his skill.

Walt Barbash, State 's fine t ra iner is another unsung hero who goes about busily getting and keeping tire men physically fit. The Booters certainly know how good it is to have a guy like Wal t around.

The guy handling the manager ia l -ship this year is Frosh Ken Kade t who seems to be doing quite a good job.

Finally one guy that must not be overlooked is the guy pushing the pencil for APRB and getting Sta te ' s name all over the State. He is none other than F rank McEvoy the third of three APRB heads who got their start, writing this page.

Game Grows Hough The game proceeded to get rough

er in the second quarter with both teams playing hard for the ball. S ta te with the wind now at their backs had many scoring opportunities but were unable to get the ball past Oswego goalie Bill Peterson. Albany dominated play for the entire period which closed with the score remaining Oswego 2. Albany 1.

The second half began with Oswego moving the ball into Albany territory but unable to collaborate and score a goal. Albany beginning to realize their plight, s tarted pressing the Oswego defense and carried the ball into Oswego territory where it remained for almost the entire period. When the Lakers did get the ball in Ped territory it was quickly cleared by fullbacks Carl Maxson and Al Ledderman. Goalie Tito Guglielmone also proved to be a thorn in the hometeam's side. Mid-way through the period Bob Backer sustained a leg injury and had to be taken out of the game. Coach Garcia was constantly shifting his team in order to bolster the defense and offense as was needed.

Albany Presses In the final period the Peds, with

the wind a t their backs pressed the Laker defense. Several State plays narrowly missed clicking, the closest being a shot by Wendell Fowler which missed by inches. Another shot by Ed Jones glanced off the Oswego goal's crossbar sending "ahs" and "ohs" through the large group of spectators. In spite of their fine play, however, the Peds were unable to score and the game came to a close with the final score Oswego 2. Albany Sta te 1.

ing it. The superior printing can be attributed to the printers in Hudson.

In keeping with news standards, the News was rated excellent in such things as coverage, features, sports coverage, typography and makeup. The short news features are written in the best professional style, whereas the "Common-Stater'' was warned against using pointless and non-essential material.

The majority of the physical properties of the News were considered excellent. Pictures on page one were well placed, however, the display below the fold could be improved.

recreation, a base for the workings of Outing Club, a center for a Camping Education program, a workshop for the Summer Theater Group, and with expansion of facilities it could be used as a frosh camp sometime in the future.

In response to an inquiry as to the operation of other State Teachers' College camps Student Council minutes were read which included a survey of these units made three years ago.

Discussion followed on the development of the area. It was pointed out that the cost of erecting buildings might be defrayed by using student and faculty labor. In this way it was felt that the project would help to tie the students and faculty of the college closer together. The fact was also brought out that the development of the camp would not be completed within a short period of time but rather a slow improvement. This means that the camp could not be used for a fresh camp immediately. President Collins pointed out, in response to the

coke suggestion of a mortgage to pay for the construction of facilities, that the interest would make it unprofitable in the long run.

Following the pointing out of the fact that the camp is easily accessible a straw vote was taken to sample the opinion of the students present. The results of this small group was almost unanimously la favor of the purchase of the site.
