thefiercevigor he displayed in winning silent heroines.
When he made Seventh Heaven with Janet Gaynor, he
became the darling of a million ladies. They wanted
cuteness in love, they found it for a long time in
Charlie Farrell and Janet Gaynor. Then Charlie did
a talking picture version of Liliom, in a role that called.
for the bluff and tender in a
man. His voice was too thin
and without nuance.
For all his voice, Charles
Farrell was no gigolo turned
actor. Born in Onset Bay, Mass.,
thirty-three years ago, a table
waiter at Boston University in
the early twenties, he was a
track man and boxer good
enough to win letters. Today
he is having indifferent success on the comeback trail.
He plays polo, is part owner of a tennis club, and
cruises in his own yacht, evidence that though voice
does not match muscle, a million ladies once paid great
material reward for illusion.

p O R a long time Horace Heidt's orchestra stood

on the football team until a back injury forced him

was graduated in 1915, and has
been a hit band leader since.
Art Thorsen, bass player and

Read the fair and square 'proposition at

in Prince Albert we've got the quality...
the mellowness...the taste and aroma
that college men will appreciate. So now
we ask that you, too, try Prince Albert.
Note P. A.'s special cut. "Crimp cut,
it is called. It has a lot to do with why
Prince Albert packs so neatly into the
bowl and burns so cool and mild. Only <
top-quality tobaccos are used. Ordinary
tobacco will not do.
P. A. is packed in a big 2-ounce economy tin. Smokers get around 60 pipefuls
from a tin. Fifty pipefuls—and no bite!
Because of its many advantages, Prince
Albert has become the largest-selling pipe
tobacco in the world. Join up with P.A.
...under our you-must-be-pleased plan!
FIFTY PIPEFULS
IN EVERY T I N !
OUR "YOU-MUSTBE-PLEASED" OFFER
Smoke 2 0 fragrant pipefuls of Prince
Albert. If you don't find it the mellowest,
tastiest pipe tobacco you ever smoked,
return the pocket tin with the rest of the
tobacco in it to us at any time within a
month from this date, and we will refund full purchase price, plus postage.

Fine tobacco for Christmas. For more than a
quarter of a century, the mellow fragrance
of Prince Albert has been as much a part of
Christmas as mistletoe and holly, So to the
pipe smokers on your Christmas list give
Prince Albert, "The National Joy Smoke."
It's the welcome gift. For more men choose
Prince Albert for themselves than any other
pipe tobacco. Let every pipeful of Prince
Albert repeat "Merry Christmas" for you.

Niagara Defeats

IS STAR GUARD
Hidley To Head
Summer Session
First Half Places State in Lead
but Visitors' Final Spurt
Downs Home Team
History Professor Will Direct
1936 Extension Courses,
President States
In the first game of tlio new year
on the Pago Hall court Friday, S t a t e ' s
basketeers started off on the wrong
side of the ledger by bowing to a
highly touted Niagara team 48 to 38.
Niagara started as though it would
make short work of our hopes by
scoring within a minute after tlio
game started.
However, tlio State
machine* began to function soon, and
Dr. A. R. Brubachor, president, announced today the appointment of
Mr. Clarence A, Hidley, assistant professor of history, as director of the
summer extension session for 1935-30
to take tho place of Dr. James B.
Palmer, professor of education, summer director of 1034-35.
Activo in undergraduate eollego
affairs, Mr. Hidley was graduated
from State college in lillo, when he
received his Bachelor of Arts degree.
In the same year he was awarded his
Master of Arts degree from Columbia
University, returning to Stnto college
to become a member of the college
faculty on September 1, 1010.
When the Student Board of Finance
was established in 1910, Mr, Hidley
assumed tho duties of the treasurer
of that organization. Ho has executed this office since then, and last
year in the student assembly of May
3, when he was elected unanimously
for 1035-30, the student body gave
Mr. Hidley a rising vote of thanks for
his conscientious efforts in faithfully
serving the student body.
Mr. Hidley has been active in tho
affairs of the Alumni association. Ho
served as the treasurer of that organization from 1919 to 1923, and in
June, 1034, was elected to tho board
of directors of the association.
In 1925 Mr. Hidley was promoted
from instructor in history to an
assistant professorship in that department, which position he is holding
now.
momentarily tied the score at four,
• only to drop behind again 11-6. At
this point the Purple and Gold again
rallied, and within four minutes they
chalked up twelve points while Niagara was held scoreless. All of the
men contributed to the score in this
rally that saw the now offense work
to perfection. Aniyot sank one as
the half oniled with the score in
S t a t e ' s favor 24 to 14.
Tho second half was disastrous for
State. Captain Bancroft was forced
to retire because of an injury received in practice. On top of this,
Stato had three first-string men put
out of the game on fouls early in tho
second half. Under such conditions,
Niagara began to click with Connolly
and McDonald as key men. With ten
minutes to go, the score was tied at
'J!) due to a long shot by Amyot.
From here on, Niagara drew away
from Stale until the score read 42-33
with only minutes left to play. State
played on even terms with them until
tho whistle, with tho final score reading Niagara 4S, Sit at o 38.
John Ryan, I, (., was high scorer
for Stale' with 10 points, and Connolly led Niagara with 15 points.
Rvn'n placed two beautiful book shots
while going away from tho basket in
the first half, and throughout the
game Aniyot, at the guard position,
was outstanding, scoring nine points
and bidding bis man to four points.
Bancroft made nine points while playing less than half the game.
II was rumored that State replaced
R.I'.I. on Niagara's schedule as they
felt that State would make a more
interesting contest.
la the preliminary game, the Stato
college freshmen lost an indifferent
game to the (oboes High school by
the large score of -14 to 23. Lehman
led the frosh with nine points.

We'd very gladly turn this week's
morsel over to Mark Hellinger. Wo
a r e n ' t used tu writing sob stories.
But it was a very bad week-end.
We wail for the Coach. He has the
toughest schedule S t a t e ever had
to contend with, staring him in the
face—and only two veterans.
He
has never had both of them free
from injuries.
Who en II tell what the liiial
Niagara score would have been if
Bancroft could have played t h a t
second ball'. Remember we had 'em
2-1-1-I at the half!
We haven't recovered from that
Queens business yet. They had no
right to be on the same court with
our squad and yet they took us over.
Wurra-wurra!
While we're ill it, we wish to tell
Bancroft and Amyot just what we
l link uf I hem.
It 's a pleasure.
They 're the I wo smool best lads
we've seen wearing Slate jerseys.
Who won't remember Jerry playing
his heart out in the second half of
I liaf Niagara disaster?
Who'll forget Bancroft's one-man
assault against Queens in the last
quarter? Hobbling on a painfully injured foot, Skipper George pulled his
team from eight points back to one
ahead with only seconds to go. He
gave his team a lead they just
couldn't hold for him.

Rival Class Presidents
Face Showers of Music
Everything is going 'round and
'round these days. Not only is
the music whirling dizzily, but so
is banner rivalry, True to form,
both are coming out of the most
unexpected places.
Herbert Drooz, sophomore president, escorted by twenty freshmen, went below, below, below to
the men's locker room. Somebody
turned a valve, and Herbert came
out under tho showers, Leslie
Knox, '38, also went bolow and
came out a purged man.
In retaliation, ten stalwart sophomores banded themselves together
and conspired to kidnap Dunton
Tynan, freshman president, on a
certain Tuesday afternoon. But
soon the news went 'round and
'round, and at the zero hour tho
ten stalwart sophomores were met
by thirty assorted freshmen escorting their beloved president. This
surprise move called for uncanny
strategy on the part of the sophomores. So, the sophs lined up in
perfect formation and watched the
parade go by I
Several small skirmishes took
place between the two classes in
the vicinity of the men's locker
room. These conferences had no
Special significance except that
several juniors and Totter club
pledges' bricks became involved In
the fray.
Strong Competition Features
Y.W.'s "White Elephant" Sale
The elephants which covered the
walls and bulletin boards of the college during the past two weeks
neither pink nor blue; they were
as white as the well-known driven
snow. Their symbolism was plain to
all: a White Elephant sale.
Wednesday afternoon, eager buyers
thronged to the Lounge, to enjoy
their tea and cookies and inspect
the "white elephants," useless to
the givers, but, perhaps, invaluable
to the purchasers. Articles of every
description covered tho bargain tables.
Jewelry, scarves, books, compacts,
shoes, blouses, and hats . . . these
are only a few of the donations of
faculty and students.
Geo. D. Jeoney, Prop.
When student interest in the sale
began to decrease, and nickels and.
dimes rattled into the cash box less
rapidly, the Y. W., sponsors of the
event, added the note of an auction.
With Augusta Katz, '30, wielding
the hammer, birch bark baskets,
fountain pens, and hand embroidered
linens went under the gavel.
Members of the faculty waged
bitter war over the possession of a
little contrivance for the holding of
twine. The record sale of the afternoon was a fountain pen, which
went for the magnificent price of
$.03. Total for the afternoon is
reported to be between ten and
fifteen dollars.
