Carnival weak in old Madrid or

Carnival night in State College Gym,
Friday evening, May !*. Surely no
real Spanish carnival queen was ever
more queenly than the one who will

one will toll you who she Is I Come

But after nil, the carnival will not
begin In the gym. First, at either
5:30 or (i:30, you will want to go to
the College dinner in the cafeteria and
feast on what Margaret Eaton calls
"the hot Spanish—ah—dishes." Do
not forget to sign up for this on the
bulletin board and don't forget to,
bring your songbook. Mr. Candlyn
will conduct a college sing between
courses.
Dancing Afterward
Then, your hunger appeased, go to
the auditorium, and hoar and sco a
truly Spanish entertainment of songs
and dances. Finally, proceed to the
gym, where the fun will continue.
There the stately queen will appear.
There all enthusiastic history students (and others) may see the discovery of America, by members of
the State College faculty. There you
may dance, perhaps learning some
new steps of the tango from blackeyed senoritas. There you will have
a good time, anyway. Come!

"Yes, my man is staying over for

frivolity. The night of May 4 will
find the Ten Eyck ball room the scene
of the annual Intersorority Ball. The
guests will be welcomed by the sorority presidents and chaperoned by selected faculty members of the societies. It is rumored that many girls
will have not only their own favors

of the affair, says that the music—

Registration at 4 o'clock
State College has originated a new
way of honoring mothers and of showing its activities to those most interested. A full week-end will begin
with registration at four o'clock Friday, May 9, At 5:30 and again at
0:30 an elaborate dinner in charge
of the Spanish Club, will be served
in the cafeteria, each course interspersed with music. From the cafeteria the Mothers are to be hurried
through underground passage first to
the auditorium, then to the gym,
where for the first time they will see
both faculty and students at their
most foolish. Then they will be swiftly transported to "sunny Spain" to
spend a delightful, exciting, and
mirthful evening. After a good long
sleep Saturday morning to recover
from the Spanish Carnival the mothers will be further revived by a luncheon at one o'clock. In the afternoon they will be conducted through
historical Albany, Saturday evening
they shall see and hear State College
at its best. The "three-in-one" chorus concert will be given in the auditorium under the direction of Mr.
Candlyn. It is rumored, also, that the
mothers will have an opportunity to
approve or disapprove of State College's dancing. Sunday morning the
mothers will bo shown their offsprings' favorite churches.
As a
grand finale, there will be vespers
Sunday afternoon.. The chief attraction there will be an address by Dr.
J. V. Moldenhauer, and special music.

RADICAL CHANGES IN
COLLEGE CATALOGUE
FOR YEAR 1924-1925
Credits Given By Grade Instead
of Hours
According to the new catalogue, a
system is to be introduced whereby
each grade receives a credit equivalent: A is equal to 3 credits for each
hour; B is equal to 2 credits for each
hour; C is equal to 1 credit for each
hour.
D has no credit value, but D is passing if with the grades in all tho other
subjects taken for a semester it averages a C. For example, if one were
taking twelve hours of work and received D in three two hour subjects
and either two B's in two three hour
courses, or one A in one threo hour
course and one C in one threo hour
course. Thus:
D 2 hour course 0
D 2 hour course 0
D 2 hour course 0
B 3 hour course (!

REPORT OF CONFERENCE
BY REPRESENTATIVE
WALKER FROM STATE
First Conference of its Kind
Ever Called
To carry out the law enforcement
program adopted at the Students'
Conference at Washington last month
a Committed of 150 is being organized and will shirt its activities in
the colleges of tho nation by tho end
of the current school year.
This
committee comprises tho delegates to
tho Washington conference, with an
executive council of five named by
tho conference
The conference made a thorough
study of the lawlessness conditions at
tho colleges of tho country today and
of the weapons that various institutions are using to curb the spread of
tile crime wave, The principle law
violations reported by delegates are
of tho Volstead act. Because of this,
special efforts are to be made in tho
future to bring about observance of
the Eighteenth amendment and Volstead act by college men and women.
Minor attention will be paid to tho
enforcement and observance of other
laws.
The movement started at tho Washington conference Is being fostered
by tho Committee of One Thousand,
composed of nationally prominont
men interested in tho problem of law

Friday evening disclosed the secret.
"Helpless", the Quarterly Hoard
hit, was a parody on a Quarterly
Board meeting. ,Jt seems that absence is the general attendance taken
at these meetings, if one judges from
Friday night's performance. As for
inspirations, this stage burlesque
hinted that they left with Dr, Thompson's davenport, and that "ads" now
constitute tho Quarterly. However,
this comedy proved that tho Quarterly
Board is by no means destitute of
ability.
Lollipops proved no barrier to admittance. Even the most dignified of
our professors bravely accepted one.
As for dancing, that always draws a

twenty years ago athletics for girls
were unthought of, but gradually the

did State, but when the comparison
is made between the amounts of practice each team had before the contest,
the superiority of tho Purple and Gold
stands forth,
To "Peggy" Caton must go the
lion's share of credit for saving State
from an ignominous defeat, and to
Caton also must go a large part of
the blame for the ' second inning
blow-up." Caton twirled u marvelous
game after the second stanza, Ho
was working all his powers of control over the leather-covered pill and
he was being given almost uncanny
support in the field. The game was
really a pitchers' duel with Caton on
the losing side in 'getting the breaks.'
State failed to hit in the pinches and
four runs were lost, men "dying" on
third base.
Hut during tho past few days Coach
Wegner has polished up tho rough
surfaces of his team and State's nine
will journey to Hamilton tomorrow
for the annual contest with Colgate,
Coach Wegner is expected to send a
different line-up on tho field than he
did in last week's game. This will bo
done so he can get a lino on all tho
members of his squad.
State is unusually gifted this year
in a staff of pitchers. Lebaron showed
his wares In a "follow-up" game at
Middlebury tho day after tho regular
contest and he appeals to bo one of
the best bets for the Colgate game,
to start it at least. State lost this
second game with Middlebury by an
S to 5 score, but the defeat will not
go down on record because it was
more or less of a practice game and
was not scheduled.
The infield is probably Stato's
weakest point. It is the general opinion that Hornung will have to stop
back into his old-time stride if ho
wants to hold his varsity berth, lor
Gainor is making a strong bid for
guardian of the initial sack. Captain
Stahlmari also will have to rub some
of the kinks out of his arms, as will
several others on the squad, if fans
are to enjoy an interesting season.
