As you probably know by now. the Lobby has moved After a very happy two years at WNAB. I have the pleasure of telling you *hat the Lobby, or a reasonable facsimile thereof w ill be moved to the other end of the dial. To vote, this has several decided advantages, not the least of which is that 1 shall be able to be with many of you throughout your summer vacation. (That is provided any of you have nothing better to do than listen). WICC (600 on the radio dial) booms into Long Island and most of New York City.

While everything is still in the | ----------r —:----r— ---------_ —fluid stage, I have been told that j Silver Dollar by Theresa Bre- my hours will probably be from weX Very Gooa. .. _2:30 to 5 P. M, Monday through j ^ r- by the Sunny-Fridays and on Saturday nights aiders — A Sleeper, from 6 to 11 P. M. (including a I _ Don t Be Angry three hour disc show Saturday night from 8 to 11 P. M.

I tell you these hours not only because I'd love to have you listen from time to time (naturally) but also because if and when the University has any summer functions or special activities. I shall be only too happy to men­tion on the air. the times, dates, and places of these functions. In that way any of *you who are Long Islanders or -NYC’rs will be able to keep contact with UB.

1 should also like to extend an invitation to all fraternities and sororities to send me any notices of their events during the sum­mer. I shall be more than happy to mention them also. It’s quite possible that you would in that >vay be able to reach one or two brothers or sisters who relight like to attend the affair. Just send the info to Wes Hobby,WICC, Bridgeport, Connecticut

While I stress the fact that New Yorkers can pick up WICC,I do not mean to slight anyone else. WICC covers an immense area. When I worked there be­fore, in 1948 and 1950. I received mail from, among other places.Old Orchard Beach, Maine, Lake Sunnapee, New Hampshire, and Miami Beach, Florida. There are spots in Pennsylvania, Virginia.North Carolina, Massachusetts.Vermont, Rhode Island and upper New York state where WICC’s signal comes in like the prover-

- bial ton of bricks. Wherever you live or vacation this summer, just for kicks, swing the dial to 600 and see if you can pick us up. I ’d appreciate hearing from any and all of you wherever you are.

Student Spiriters Cite Pet Projects

The Student Spirit Committee with Mrs. Marion Lunn as advisor has done a fine job this year in following their objective, that of bdilding spirit on the l|B campus. The committee's long list of ac­complishments began during the fall semester with pep rallies and motorcades in connection with the football games. During the schobi year, the members Winked hard, decorating Alumni Hall for the “Purple Night Dances,” a Student Spirit Innovation. These dances were designed to give the resident students something to look forward to on a weekend when nothing big was going on.

This group has tried constantly to build up the spirit on campus and has in its small way contri­buted something. Congratulations to a fine committee that will go far at UR

Stan Ken- line, but at the same time ifmakes us feel more and more like a sheep running and bleating after the shepherd.

I f only there was something else to do. . . play intramural softball, count money, mail let­ters, go to the movies, that's something else that makes us-feel independent... (going to the mov­ies on' a real summery day). There are really a whole bunch of things to do when one doesn’t feel like writing. A real sunny day is a good time to collect one’s girl, make about a dozen sand­wiches. sneak into the room next door and sneajj out with the guy’s check book, and go down to the beach and soak up some Bridge­port sunshine, such as it is. .

Of course there’s always home­work to do. That can be rationa­lized though. (Night time is the time for homework). We might as well rationalize our entire day away. Maybe it’ll rain. . .'maybe it’ll even snow. No. . . it only snows the day of a football game in Candlelite Stadium

I f we had any friends we Could fill our bolumn by simply listing them, but if we had to rely on that method we could Drobablv till about a auarter of a line. (We have two roommates, they’re ob­ligated to be friends).

Ah. yes. . . a day such as this inspires poetry from whom? We ®ften wonder if sujuiv dayswere made tb'get peoble' into trouble! They're certainly unconduclve (you leave your hands o ff that ‘unoondudve’ editor, it’s perfectly legit) to anything by neglecting things.

Wonder if we’ve written enough to fill the coluiqn yet. . . Uh-huh. OK? Good! One more thought for the day: “He that takes'what isn’t his’n, must pay the price and go to prison!” (Completely irrelevant of course).

Dartmouth has their Winter Carnival, Cornell has their Spring Weekend, and UB, keeping with the trend of things, has their Wistaria Weekend. And it's just about to begin, so hold onto your hats. Festivities begin tonight at the Ritz Ballroom, where lasses in glistening gowns, and their beaus in white dinner jackets will dance to the melodies of Neil Hefti. The Hefti organization has done many records for Coral. Epic and "X " labels. He plays that' real dreamy stuff, that college couples like so much. ,

Weylister School Gives Girls Practical Experience in Field

T h e Weylister Secretarial school at the University of Bridgeport has thirty-two coeds enrolled in an educational ven­ture that is unique to secretarial schools. On the Job training, giv- ng the girls practical experience

in the fields of Executive, medi­cal and legal secretaries, is the aim of this program and it is carried out with the help of the various charitable organizations around Bridgeport.

The Cancer Society, Cerebral Palsy Association, Red Cross, Tu­berculosis Association and the Wonder Workshop are a few of the organizations that are aiding in this training program. On the legal and medical side of the Common Pleas Court, Park City Hospital and St. Vincenfs Hospi­tal help give the girls valuable experience in the actual proce­dures of the busy office.

Volunteer assistance forms the

backbone of most charitable or­ganizations and the assistance that the Weylister School has giv­en has been warmly received. Mrs. Fanita J. Smith, executive secretary of the Bridgeport branch, American Cancer Society said in expressing the sentiments of the agencies:

“We depend upon the volun­teers to do nearly three quarters of our work. The assistance pro­vided by the University students and by other volunteers has help­ed our organization to meet its obligations."

Dr. Marie Jaeger, director of the Weylister School' reported, that the program has given sec­retarial students an opportunity to expand their education. She said that the highest number of failures are not due to lack of skill but to lack of personal ad­justment to the Job.

Music Departm ent Receives Scholarship

Last week the Music Depart­ment was the happy recipient of a chebk from the Music Study Çlub of Bridgeport to be used as a scholarship aid for music stu­dents. After the general business meeting the Men’s Glee Club ren­dered a series of songs followed by piano solos by Lenny Gendal and Eddie Leach.

Edith Hofferman did a beauti­ful Job as usual with “Hear Ye Israel.” This was followed by the “Madrigals” a volunteer group of students. (They don’t get credit for it).

May 17, will find the Glee Club at Norwalk High School. Eddie Leach will make his debut at the Klein Memorial soon sponsored by the Wednesday afternoon Mu­sicals.

Michael DeVino, a very talented musician, has written a song for the Wistaria Pageant entitled “I f They Ask Me.” It will be dedi­cated to Her Majesty the Queen. Mike will do the vocal himself After listening to his composition Albert Dickason and Mrs. Meath were enthusiastic about his talent and said, "It was a treat and a pleasure to work with Mike, he is a very talented young man and his new song is beautiful.”

All this activity took place in thé Music Hall. This is the mod emized building behind Fones Hall where all the music majors spend most o f their time.

than a barn. True,, it served as a barn for its first 50 or so years, but it later had a more important part to play in Bridgeport—and UB’s history.

A while back, the Junior Col­lege was founded and the school was housed on a plot of land on Fairfield Ave. This is the site of the new Campus Gardens Apart­ment ’Project—Just across the street from the Kirin.

Well, in back of this array of wooden structures which housed the first two classes of the Uni­versity of Bridgeport, was this barn. It was just a storehouse un­til they swept out all the cob­webs, hay, and other dirt. Then it was taken over by the Office of Campus Productions—a group that no one ever heard of.

They heard of it when the first roar of Thunder was frit on the stage of the Kirin Memorial back , in 1947. And Thunder has been rolling off of the make-shift stage of tiie Little Theatre—as ft later became known—ever since then.

The building is now deserted— and slated to be torn down soon to make a parking lot for the cars of busy executives living in file Campus Gardens Apartments. But, there’s a new Barn—or Little Theatre—now, on Hazel St.

But, enough of the history of The Barn. Ail Campus Thunder Alumni will remember it well enough. What about the future of The Barn.

Sports PersonalitiesStanley Silverberg, Sports Per­

sonalities for the week. A tall, good looking basketball ace for coach Herb G lines’ five for the past four years, the 6' 2" senior graduates this June into Uncle Sam’s Army.

Stan was born in New York’s Harlem district 22 years ago. He attended Peter Stuyvesant High School where he played for two years and was Co-Captain of the basketball 'team in his senior term. Upon graduation he enter­ed Brooklyn College Evening School for a year and then enroll­ed at the University in September of 1951.

In his sophomore year, Stan was named second team All Dis­trict. Always a top notch reboun­der, he placed high every year in rebounds, although he played with such star rebounders as Lou Saccone, Gus Seaman, A1 Clink- scales and Jim Davins. He holds with Seaman the second best re­bounding record in the school. His 24 caroms against New Bri­tain the past year was four short of the school record held by Sea­man.

During the summer, Stan is a councilor at Camo Scatico under Nat Holman, head coach of bas­ketball at City College of New York and Mister Basketball of a few years back.

Trying to recall his biggest thrill Stan has two picks. One, is being a member of the 1953- 54 New England NAIA champions and the other dates back to the 1952-53 season when after taking a 20-point beating at the hands of Arnold College at the Bridge­port Armory, they went up to Milford, Conn, and upset the highly rated terriers in a closely played ball game. Silverberg con­tributed 10-points plus numerous rebounds to the victory.

Stan is an Education major and after serving two years in the service he hopes to take up Sec­ondary Education.

unVAILing sportsBy Mickey Vail

You’re John McKeon, and your club is losing. You’ve never be­fore and the taste of defeat is strange to your senses. Your record js 4-7 and the tough part of your schedule is coming up.

Tough'breaks came early'hnd have continued to plague you. Even before the season started you lost a good third baseman. It wasn't long before your first sacker took sick and was forced to quit. He was your top batter and the only lefty on the dub.

The hitting failed except for your right fielder and he came up lame. The defense fell apart and the pitchers hunt for runs. The trips were rough and you seldom get a break on the road. Twice the team Mt well, but right at the opposing fielders.

Only once did you get a full-team effort out of the dub. They pi Vad out a big victory J tc New York school t l tlx»big ones, you’ve said it many times over. Thiey bring prestige to the school and that's what draws good ballplayers into the school.

The lone win in front of the home folks helped, it gave the dub confidence. But it was the last time they played in»««»hi»n One more victory came your way but that was won out of an imbedded spirit, placed there by the loss of your first baseman.

Dissension, the killer of good ball teams, set in. It crept up slowly and fanned by the loss of four straight games exploded dur­ing the fifth loss. A heads-up play by one man was called a show- off stunt by another, not in the privacy of the locker room but in the middle of the playing field. It took many words to prevent an all out fight » ~

What could you do? Reprimanding‘either man would split the camp In halt So you turned your bade and dosed your ears, hoping, always hoping. ~'

Only six games are left and playing than will be torture. The team doesn’t want to play ball, but you’re John McKern and losing is new.

McKeon men Suffer 3 Straight Setbacks

Still playing without the services of stellar first basem an Larin Beresynak, the University's baseball team took to the road again in Johnny Longo's express for gam es at Ntew Britain, Hillyer at Hartford, and Adelphi at Long Island. The bus re­turned from the three separate gam es and lightning had struck. Leaving with a two-game losing streak and hoping to return with three victories, the Knights of John McKeon took three losses instead.

New Britain was first on the agenda for the traveling Macmen.John Dennis went for the Teach­ers while McKeon selected Pierre Vaporis. The Blue Devils struck first with two runs in the first inning and grabbed three more in the fifth. Frank McLaughlin replaced Vaporis in the seventh and was nicked for a run in the eighth and the Purple and White lost 64). Jimmy Davins led the UB attack with two hits.

The express took off again and this time the destination was Hartford, and Hillyer College.John Lisbon went for the home team while coach McKeon picked Norm O’Donnell. The Knights picked up two quick runs in their half of the first inning but the home forces rallied in the second to pick up three. The Macmen tied it up in the fourth but Hill­yer nicked away and garnered single runs in the fifth and sixth.UB fought back and grabbed a run in the seventh but Lisbon held tight and the Kngihts drop ped their fourth in a row, 6-4 to the Hartford team. McLaughlin and Mort Faherty relieved O’Don­nell. Johnny Esposito and Joe

Candela led UB at the plate with two hits apiece.

The express again rolled out of Bridgeport, with Long Island and Adelphi its goal. Vaporis was again named by McKeon to start, but once again it was a quick start for the home team and they nailed three runs real quick. The Macmen scored once in the sec­ond but Adelphi picked up four in the fourth to command a 7-1 lead. McLaughlin relieved Vapo­ris and Faherty replaced Mc­Laughlin. The Purple and White pecked away and picked up one run in the seventh and two in the eighth- Davins and Norm Cha- cho paced the visitors with three hits apiece as they dropped their fifth in succession.

Although swimmngi been dropped from the Uni­versity’s Athletic program, all those interested In attempt­ing to reorganise the team, should contact either Howard Bader or Charles Anderson.

Student Council Lists Activities

The newest addition to Student Council property is a shiny new suggestion box, courtesy of Paul Allen and Iggy Salone.

Dorm students have been com- plaining about the unsanitary con- ditions and the preparation of the food at Marina Hall. A petition signed by almost all the dorm residents was presented in an ef­fort to improve these conditions. I f you happen to see a few bird dogs around, you’ll know what they’re there for.

The Blood Bank Chart hanging in the Snack Bar is an invitation for the fraternities to compete among themselves for a v e ry ' worthy cause. Deposits only, no withdrawals please. Let’s see which frat will break the bank

Circulars have been seen on the tables in Alumni Hall concerning a “Books for Asia"'drive. Any book published after 1946 and in fairly good condition will be ac­cepted. Bring your old books to Alumni Hall and show the future leaders of Asia what America learns. (Kinsey Report not ac­cepted!.

A few months ago the National Student Association (NSA) held its _ convention here on campus. This organization keeps students abreast of the activities,on other campuses. Like many other things we can get out of it only what we put into it. A concerted effort will be made by* the Stu­dent Council under the direction of Veep Dave Barr to coordinate the activities here at UB with all the member colleges.

Jack Barrett was sworn into the Student Council as second al­ternate for the senior class.

Until next meeting.............
