FRESHMEN WIN DEBATE
Affirmative Speakers Clever in
Rebuttal
The junior-freshmen debate took
place Friday morning, March 5, in
Student Assembly. The question
debated was "Should the United
States own and control its coal
mines?" The freshmen, arguing
for the affirmative, won, by a unanimous decision of the judges, over
(he juniors debating for tile negative. Tile first speaker for the
affirmative was Agnes Smith, '23,
who stated the necessity for a
change. James Bucci, '21, her opponent argued that a change would
not improve the situation.
The
second speakers, Elizabeth Reuner,
'23, and Nellie I'arkhurst, '21, debated tlie practicability of government control.
Helen McKcnna,
'23, the third affirmative speaker,
proved that government control
would be beneficial to the public
and to the individual; Marjorie
Potter, '21, that government control was not necessary. She also
proposed a method by which private ownership would continue,
regulated by a commission representing both the government and
the private owners.
The debate was unusually well
prepared and delivered by both
sides. The freshmen excelled in
the rebuttal, thereby determining
the decision of the judges. The
judges were Dr. Hopkins, Dr.
Crcighlon Storey and Mr. Ilidley.

NEW MEMBERS
A regular meeting of the society
was held Thursday evening, March
4, at 8 p. in., in Room laO-A, at
which Mr. Long gave a talk on
" Wireless."
We heard messages being sent
from several stations, but unfortunately Mr. Long was under oath
not io reveal the subject matter of
any of them. Mr. Long had hoped
that we might dance to music
transmitted by radio telephone,, but
the patent held on a part of the
apparatus prevented his using ii.
However, the meeting was very
interesting and we feel that the
members and their friends should
avail themselves of the opportunity, which the society affords,' of
keeping up with the science of the
day.
I'.esidcs the regular members,
there were present several students
from the night classes of the Albany High School with Prof. B. O.
Rurgin, head of the Science Department.
The next meeting is to be held
on March 25. New members will
be initiated, and Professor Hale
will speak on the topic "Joseph

there! The program committee
plans an exciting campaign for the
new members.

"Oh, yes, here we are again,
" ITere we are again,"
etc.
We're just coming into our own.
Last Tuesday night, March 2, a
business meeting was held in the
gymnasium, after which we initiated some dozen and a half victims
and had our picture taken.
The match race between the
blindfolded initiates was excruciatingly
funny, — and
otherwise.

Oh, yes, you
did dance, didn't you, boys? They
made an attempt at "Patriotism"
which was truly praiseworthy.
Our imagination ran riot when it

TO THE ALUMNI
The end of this month, just before Easter vacation, we are going
to publish our annual "big issue '
of the "News." Of course, the
function of this, being sent to every
high school in the State, is to
boom State College. We'd like
some articles containing " raves "
about our Alma Mater, what it
does i for under-graduates and
alumni.
Please make these real " b o o m s "
and send them to the editor before
March 20.
SOMETHING TO
ABOUT
THINK
We have had something "under
our hat" for a long time; and we
have kept it there not so much because we were afraid to say it as
because we hardly knew how to
express our feelings in such a way
that they would not be misunderstood. A letter to the editor of
the " News" printed in the issue
for March 4, although not exactly
dealing with the same subject,
brought the matter so vividly
home to us that we are going to
come out with the thing, trusting
that if we arc wrong we may be
corrected but not too severely
criticized.
There is a somewhat general
feeling that teaching is a woman's
job. The great patience and gentle, reasoning faculty which are
the necessary complements of
modern pedagogy seem to he found
mostly in women, Yet we do not
agree that this is entirely a profession for the fair sex. We feel
that (here is a grca't need for the
man teacher. The hoy of to-day
needs someone to act as a big
brother.
Who is more adapted
than the man teacher? If all the
instructors in the United Slates
were women, do you think there
would be an adequate development
of those vigorous characteristics
which live young men impart to a
country? We are talking especially of the grammar school and
high school pedagogue, for women
have not become so common in the
faculties of our higher educational
institutions but what we always
think of the instructor of a college
class in terms of short hair, beard,
and trousers,
If teaching is not distinctly a
woman's position and men are
badly needed for this profession,
why is it thai a man who engages
in it is regarded as effeminate?
.Maybe you think this is nonsense,
bul we feel that is a rather deplorable fact,
b'or instance, the
oilier day a man whom we respected asked ^ us, " What college
are you attending? "
" Why, I'm going to Stale College."
" Ah-li, I see, studying to be a
teacher. I ihoiighl you were interested in electrical engineering."
The
tone
given
the
word
"teacher" could not be mistaken,
Then then.' followed a rather
poor explanation, we fear, of why
we had chosen teaching instead of
engineering.
The interview concluded, and the man walked away
with a pitying expression loo plain
to be misunderstood.
Now we do not feel that people
are entirely unreasonable in regarding the man teacher as somewhat effeminate.
It is not the
whim of one man, bill many men
seem (o take an altitude like thai
cited above. Do not mistake us.
We do not believe, as some folk
would have us, that the men of the
nexl generation arc going lo be
like women and I he women like
men, tint we do believe that the
world is being cultured lo a liner
degree causing in some cases a
taint of effeminacy among men.
This, also, we think is I rue of the
man teacher.
If we are right, we may attribute
Ibis condition lo several things.
First, (here is the law of corporal
punishment, In the good old days,
a blue-beach gad played a good
part in education; and, as we can
personally testify, the culprit did
not doubt tluit it was a mini's hand
that administered it. Then thereis the fact that in the teachers' colleges of to-day there are usually a
few males and a generous proportion of females.
Right here is a good place to
state that our purpose is not to
slam the women or to advocate the
abolition of co-education. Hut we
do think that if a man is constantly
in the society of women, he will
either partake of the gentle manners of woman-kind or lice in despair to some isolated island or
wilderness far from society.
In
either case he is unfitted to become a teacher, for what boy
Would respect a lady-like man? It
is likewise true that a woman constantly in society with men may
become mannish.
Either case is
lamentable.
The remedy we propose is simple.
In colleges like our own
State College, there should be more
men's
get-togethers,
smokers,
clubs, etc. Yes, have a lodge out
in the woods, but have it exclusively for men where they can
rough it. If the men could be together more of the time, it would
be better for them. The kind of
man who is a man
men's ways of life is
will gain the respect
help the country by
teacher,
and knows
the one that
of boys and
becoming' a
AT THE MANHATTAN
GAME
Talk about your college spirit —
it lakes the alumni to set the pace
for us! When the team played
Mauhaiian at New York last Friday the weather was precipitous—it rained buckelsftill all evening.
.Vol discouraged by the weather
conditions a number of alumni
braved the elements and wended
their way lo Broadway and 131st
Street lo (lie college only lo find
thai I he game was to be played al
5°lli street.
Willi the dauntless
spirit of "State," the crowd floated
its way down lo 59lh street and
then climbed live llighls of stairs
lo gel to the gym. There I bey inspired Hie learn by their encouraging words throughout the game
and ended up by giving the old
"Locomotive" for ihe (earn and
for "Slate College."
Ii surely
sounded good to bear the old cheer,
as you can well imagine. Such
spirit is wbai one can't help but
admire. These ,-1111111111 had come
from various places in and about
New York, disregarding all incon
vciiicuccs to themselves, Lo see the
team in action and lo help the boys
win. If any who read this think
they have been lacking somewhat
in their spirit at tnw home games
— they shall have a final opportunity to square themselves on
Saturday when we will close our
season with a victory over Hobart.
Among the alumni present al the
Manhattan
game
were—Irene
Patterson, '18, Eloise Lansing, 'IS,
Janet Wall, 'IK, Dorothy Biirli n,
'IN. Clara Holder, 'IS, Lillian
Magillon, 'IN, Vera Comslock, '14,
Alice Howell, 'IN, Edna Ilerwald,
'IN, Violet Dowiisbrough, 'IN.
TARDINESS AT
ASSEMBLY
It is absurd, to say ihe least, for
us to endure the annoyance of having so many students coming late
to Friday assembly, This seeming lack of intelligence on the pari
of so many students can he cured
lo some extent by stationing monitors ;it all doors, prohibiting entrance after Q.-O.i. ' This, however,
should be a last resort. Such ;iu
arrangement does not provide for
keeping silent those groups of
tardy people outside. No strict
rule can be' enforced causing students to either be on time at these
assemblies or stay away. A partial honor system in this respect
might be effective, but it's up to
the student body as a whole to
realize_ that such a system is in
operation.
No drastic steps can be taken if
students absent themselves from
Friday assembly, but none should
be necessary. These meetings are
practically the only occasions when
we are all together to give evidence of what loyalty we have for
State College.
Effective measures for curing
annoying tardiness can he executed
aiid_ certainly will he, when an
audience comprised of our fellow
students plainly shows ils disapproval and disgust occasioned by
habitual tardiness and annoyance.
Friday assembly period begins at
9:05. A good suggestion is that
some class, say 192,1, set Ihe example of being in their seals at
9:00. 1920 once created a precedent of voluntarily remaining
seated while the other classes
passed out, If freshmen can make
such ii sacrifice lo be on lime certainly (lie rest of us can follow.
WITH THE N, Y. AGGIES
While going lo Karmingdiile, the
team was treated to a race between
electric and steam engine trains,
A stranger (while, driving in at
ihe Karuiingdalc station):
" What you all looking al; anything strange 'bout me? "
Schiavone—"No,
Only
we
hadn't seen a horse since we got
here."

The .Aggies are lo be congratulated for their success in towing
us between the station and the college. Each time I be burses swam
a distance of two miles without
losing any pari of I heir load — our
condolences lo (he " Ped " fur miss
ing this " snap."
Ilefore and after the game the
team enjoyed a swim between I lie
dressing room and the gym.
Waler wings and life savers were
furnished free. Next year we are
proposing to add fishing tackle lo
our equipment,
McCal'ferly has found Ill's idea ol
a wonderful lime in ihe moving
staircase. Al first he had a hard
time getting his feel lo harmonize
with the motion of the stairs.

To the Editor of the " News:"
America is to-day shaken to its
very foundations by anarchy* Hoi
shevisin and many other " i s m s "
until one wonders as lo the final
outcome of it all. The ultimate
outcome will be fatal lo America,
lo our unique Democracy, it
America departs from her ancient
I radii ions. And America must depart from her traditions, from the
teachings of her founders, unless
American
teachers adhere
to
American ideals, love Ihein and
leach those in their charge to
know and lo love them.
The fate of America, of democracy, of civilization, rests in the
bauds of Ihe American school
teacher. It is our duty lo prepare
lo accept our great responsibilities,
to prepare for our great task. We
are al present shamefully negligent. VVc are dabbling' around
with childish things, when we
should prepare for our struggle.
In Chapel we sing " I la! I la!
I'm Wild" and other foolish trash.
It has been a long time since we
Americans have been called lo our
feet lo sing " The Star Spangled
Banner," We have been too busy
with our silly, infantile whims to be
true Americans. Let us show that
we are still Americans by singing
our National War Anthem—and
sing it as ft Is Written! ! ! ! !
Let us include the Third Verse
which has been stricken from thai
song by traitors. For those who
do not know it we arc putting it
down here:
And where is that band who so
vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the
battle's confusion
A home and a country would leave
us no more?
Their blood has washed out their
foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling
and slave
From the terror of flight or the
gloom of the grave.
And the Star Spangled Banner in
• triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free, and Ihe
home of the brave.
