State Vanquishes
Middlebury Five
With 58-53 Score
s»
ill try one
A savage display of offensive strength
carried a ragged but very powerful State
quintet to an inspired victory over a
strong Middle-bury Five.
T h e score
(58-53), indicates clearly the pattern of
the game. Both squads concentrated on
getting baskets and let the defensive
angle of the game take care of itself.
It was not good basketball, perhaps
(the mad total of 111 points reveals
glaring defensive errors on both sides),—
but it was a magnificent spectacle. No
one who witnessed this wild orgy of
hysterical, vicious combat will ever forget bow a furiously scrappy squad of
State men demanded—and received—
victory from a team which we still
believe is their physical superior.
_ Bob Murray's cool sharp.shooting precision (2u honcst-to-goodness points of
it), Jerry Amyot's deftly executed, unwearily accurate passes, the bard fighting
floorwork of George Bancroft, and the
inspired drive of the entire team, all furnished a spine-tingling thrill for all the
State spectators, There may have been
better teams on that Page hall gym in
the past but we've never seen them.
If the Purple and Gold squad can hold
the pace they set in this hectic fray
they won't be defeated this season. This
from an enthusiastic scribbler who lacks
the adjectives to adequately pay tribute
to the hardest lighting team be has ever
seen in action,
TO GIVE SEMINAR COURSE
Dr. Domini V. Smith, assistant professor of history, will teach a new seminar course for graduate students during
the second semester. The course will !»•
limited to twelve It will lie centered
und Jacksonian democracy.
Sororitv rushing (if freshmen women
will be«fn at 6:.10 o'clock, Thursday,
January 31, and continue until 11:30
o'clock Saturday morning, February 1.
according to Klizaheth Hart man, '35,
president of lutersorority council. Rush
invitations will he mailed to freshmen
next Friday night, January 25. They
must be answered by return mail.
Freshmen who receive and accepl these
rush invitations will be entitled tu attend
the three events which will be conducted
in each sorority house, namely, a formal
dinner Thursday night, January 31, from
6;30 until 11:30 o'clock; a lea-dance the
following afternoon, from 3:0(1 until 5:00
o'clock; and a breakfast Saturday morning, from 9:30 until II :30 o'clock.
After tin- rushing officially ends at
11 :30 o'clock on Saturday, a silent period
will be maintained until the following
Monday. Further rushing is forbidden
during the silent period. At 9:00 o'clock
on the following Monday morning, each
freshman who received a rush invitation
will receive a preference blank in the mail
box. This must he relumed to the office
of Miss Helen 11. Morcliimj, dean of
women, before noon, whether it lias been
filled out or not, according to the new
system of preferential bidding.
According to this system, if the freshman, when stie receives her preference
blank, has decided ih;,, she would like
to join a sorority, she writes down the
name of the one -.lie prefers on the blank.
If she also has a second and third choice,
she is requested lo list these. At the
same time the freshmen submit their
choices, each sororitv turns in the name!
of ibe freshmen ihey have decided to bid,
If a freshman is hid by the snrorily of
her first choice, she automatically becomes eligible for membership. If, how
ever, the freshman is not hid bv the
sorority of her lirsl choice, but is bid
by the sorority of her second choice, she
immediately accepts lhal.
If she has
(bird preference, Ibe same rule applies
in that case.
This system winch has been in use for
several years al inosl of the laru.e colleges and universities, has been used successfully ai Slate college for the past
two years.

material, securing unbiased decisions in
studenl administration disputes, securing,
speakers and scheduling debates, and, in

themselves."

decisions of studenl government al the
X. S. b . A. Congress, I have been wondering if ihe studenl hmlv of New York
$2.25 Per Year. 32 Weekly Issues
Slate college is governing itself as effectively as il i Id. We are lo lie congratulated upon a system of eery little
regulation which work's well. However,
I think changes could be effected in our
constitution which would make it more
eflicicnl and satisfactory. Therefore, I
hereby move that a committee he appointed to investigate and study the
constitution of our student body witll
the object of making it more effective."
In further commenting on ihe X. S.

and came to realize how far advanced we
are in comparison with other colleges,"
further stated Miss lluckley, and addeil
"Teachers' colleges e pose two-thirds
of the membership of the X. S. F, A., so
