Cabinet:
Ministers Discuss Dippikill;
Total Budget Jumps $ 4 0 0 0
By DAVID FOTHERINGHAM
Moving-up Day is still a n u n s e t tied issue. I t opened a g a i n a t last
Monday's Cabinet m e e t i n g : Should
we wear h a t s a n d carry canes? M c c l a i n will bring the whole issue up
oO a class meeting. T o be or not
to be an issue of t h e S t a t e College
News for MUD?
Higher Budgets
Budgets are now ready to be
presented to t h e S e n a t e . As proposed, n e x t year's budget will be
$39,481, compared to last year's
$35,000. I t is interesting to n o t e
t h a t with the additional g r a n t s
from surplus, last year's total costs
were around $38,000. Noteable increases were allotted to Music
Council Guest Artists, $1500; S t a t e
College News, $400;
Pedagogue,
$1100. T h e Senate will probably
come down quite a bit, as t h e controversy over the c a m p grows.
Ditch Dippe
T h e same question—Do we need
a college c a m p ? Should we hold
off on appropriations for a while?
Should we tiy to sell? T h e longr a n g e plans not yet p u t into motion
were cited. DeNike, Yager and Cass
were very sure it can be built up
and interest the students, but they
were aware of t h e distance factor.
Yager felt there too m u c h of a
negative attitude toward the camp.
No one realizes t h e potentialities,
nor will they enjoy this realization
because it is too far in the future.
If we don't keep going we'll lose
w h a t tax we've already paid.
T h e r e was still a question as to
whether or not there wasn't a better use for the money. Therefore,
t h e budget is being held and a large
meeting will be called n e x t Friday
to deal with the problem. Myskania,
t h e Cabinet, t h e Presidents of t h e
sororities and t h e fraternities and
Commerce Club, S e n a t e and the ad-
ministration will all meet in the
conclave.
New Budget
T h e appropriations which were
taken from surplus for special occasions are now under a Special
Days Budget of $1200, a time saving
consolidation.
Foreign Students
Foreign students in this whole
a r e a will gather at a dance here
next Friday, with e n t e r t a i n m e n t , a
movie on Venezuela, etc. About 100
are expected from SCT. Let's hope
more show up.

"blissful" state.

By JOHN STEFANO
Page Hall, Soccer & Softball Fields, And All That!
It seems very disgusting that a college run by the
great State of New York should have such inept athletic
facilities as we have here in Albany. Granted the recent
. Bond Issue passed by the citizens of this State will provide
funds, eventually, for athletic facilities here at the college.
It seems, however, that this matter could have been taken
"care of much earlier. If some hearsay is correct concerning
this matter then construction on new facilities should have
, started 2 or 3 years ago with some of it being completed
' before June, 1958.
The only new items we have to look at around our
"campus" are the Washington Avenue tennis courts and
• the cleared land which resulted from the tearing down of
Albany State's "College Heights." The facilities that are
still landmarks around the college area are: (1) Page Hall
(Orchestra Pit) Gym, (2) Beverwyck and Page Fields, (3)
Bleeker Stadium. These areas are either inadequate, congested, or otherwise inconvient for many of our athletic
events, both varsity and intramural.
It is apparent that the Bond Issue will provide adequate funds, we hope, for new athletic facilities, but why is
it that institutions of this nature have to wait for such
a great period of time before necessities of this nature are
provided? It seems as though the State of New York
would try to cut some of their red tape to see t h a t educational institutions have the proper facilities to develop
students physically as well as mentally. Here's hoping that
when some of the grads return for a Homecoming Weekend within the next 5 years they will see some changes
around our "campus"—here's hoping that a couple changes
. to the better may be seen concerning the college's athletic
facilities.

Peds Close Season With Road Trip;
Drop Home Finale In 10 Innings, 9-8
By DAVID MILLER
Albany's baseball Peds, paced by the big bats of Ray
Haver, Ken Brett, Dick Lewis, and Larry Gunderman, head
into the home stretch of the season today when the squad
hops across the River to RPI for a 4:30 game before making
the treck to Danbury tomorrow and to Oneonta on Memorial day. The Oneonta trip will be the finale of the season
that thus far has seen the Sauersmen score Six victories
while dropping five, the latest being a ten-inning loss to
Oneonta at Bleeker on Monday last.
Official statistics for the first nine games, which do
not include the loss to Oneonta or the 11-6 win over Plattsburg last Saturday, show Ray Haver to be the team leader
in batting with eight bingles in twenty-eight trips to the
plate for a 286 average; Lewis is 14 points below this with
272. Lewis leads the team in RBI's with eight, followed by
Howie Caldwell (seven) and Haver's six. Ken Brett, who
is number three man in batting with .259, has four.
Softball Teams
End Schedule;
Slate Play-Offs
Since t h e last issue of the paper
t h e teams in t h e i n t r a m u r a l softball
leagues have continued to battle
furiously for their respective crowns.
In view of the games reported in
the past weeks we find t h a t t h e
Pogos are still way out front In the
fiist league and the SLS squad has
dropped to third position as a result of two defeats a t t h e h a n d s of
Potter Club, 3-0 and 5-4. Last week
SLS vanquished the APA club 19-8
with a h o m e - r u n by pitcher Jack
Ormsbee highlighting the action.
This further insured APA's last position in the first league. Ormsbee has
done an excellent job of pitching
two S I S games in the ppast week
with a broken finger.
T h e playoff games in the first
league began this week with the
Potter Club-SI.S contest in which
the men from S t a t e St. were again
victorius, 3-2. T h e outstanding plays
included Harry Millet's h o m e - r u n
end an excellent relief pitching job
by Bob Backer who entered in t h e
lifth inning and with three men on
base, retired
the side Willi a
strikeout. This may well have saved
the game for the Potter squad.
Thus, discounting the playoffs, t h e
first league has emerged frctn the
season as predicted with the Pogos
and Potter Club now in first and
second place being followed by
SLS and APA respectively.
In the second league the Apaches
seem to have dominated the action
as far as the number of games is
concerned. On last Friday they
garnered their sole win by rolling
the Rousers, 14-0. A h o m e - r u n by
Ed Jones followed by Bob Kampf's
four bagger highlighted the action.
Keith Kempton batted four for four
to help keep the bases occupied. On
Saturday they met defeat at the
hands of the K B squad, 7-(i. A
h o m e - r u n in t h e last inning by
Bump LaValle enabled KB lo retain their unbeaten record which
is ll-i) to date. T h e Apaches dropped
another to EEP on last Tuesday by
a score ol 8-3. Skip Gehhardt was
outstanding for EEP as he rang a
total of five UBls which included
a home-run, a double and .single.
EEP vanquished the Vets 11-10 on

Caldwell Shines
T h e 8-9 loss to Oneonta could be
summed up by a pair of innings in
which the visitors got the breaks
while the Peds did not. T h e winning
run pushed across in the t e n t h n u l lified a good pitching performance
by Caldwell, who came in as a r e liever and absorbed the loss, and
also batted three for five.
Lefty Pete Spina, the Long Island
sensation who started the game, left
in t h e seventh inning after a mediocre performance—his first since being plagued by a sore arm which
cost him the game on successive
losses to Siena and Union. He is
now four wins and two losses in t h e
record books.
T h e win in t h e Plattsburg game
went to Wes Brown, a r i g h t h a n d e r
who absorbed a tough loss on u n earned r u n s in his only other s t a r t .
He allowed eight hits in his seven
inning s t i n t before yielding to Caldwell who held the Cards scoreless
and hitless to wrap up the win for
Wes. Brown also helped his own
cause by singling and doubling for
two hits in three trips and four
RBI's.

T h e r e was a slight

College Fashion Preferences
W h a t is Joe College of Albany
S t a t e wearing this spring? According to a survey tabulated by Donald Mayer and R. J. Banfield,
Seniors, Joe and his female c o u n t e r p a r t have shown a preference for
"s.mple, practical clothes" and a
"neat and conservative appearance."
W h a t the Men Wear
Statistics show t h a t ninety per
c n t of the men at S t a t e wear white
shirts for dress. Fifty-five per cent
wear no tie. Only thirty-five percent of those observed were button
t o w n collars.
T h e Sport Coat
One hundred sixty out of two
hundred men were without spurts

Eighty-one percent of our boys
prefer to go without sweaters, while
the rest wear crew necks, v-necks
a n d cardigans.
Khakis captured the attention of
t h e observers; they have a sixtyseven percent majority over black,
brown and check slacks.
T h e Distaff Side
On the better-looking side of
the campus, we find dresses and
skirts and blouses in competition.
Full-skirted dresses lead the race
comprising fifty percent of the
taste of State's girls. T h e modren

Interestingly enough, when the

Senators, C a m p Board members,

discuss t h e budget of C a m p Dippikill. T h e alleged purpose of this
meeting was to have c a m p board
explain to S t u d e n t Association their
proposed budget of eight thousand
do.lars, however the major p a r t of
the meeting was devoted to a
l a t h e r undirected discussion of the
purposes and uses of the proposed

T h e a n t i - c a m p bloc asked m a n y
questions which can be synthesized
into one premise—why have a college camp? To answer this question
the p r o - c a m p contingent tried to
impress upon the meeting t h a t a

of t h e senators adequately stated
t h e folly of this proposal—the question of t h e camp must be met.

Underclassmen are stronger t h o u g h ;
its not they who have to go, there's

I shall have to turn to myself, and

Actually, Seniors a r e not t h e

about their being Seniors. Somebody
has to do it, lor few, if any, colleges
come with only three classes. T i e '
Seniors I know, both of t h e m , are
perfectly acceptable here as well, 1
