he added, "Don't get me wrong:
I m not an advocate of war, but
from one viewpoint there is sufficient, justification for our entering
the war. When brute force, brutality and militarism become r a m p a n t

make a stand against it. I t Germany should emerge victorious, il
would be fatal to all our accepted

"In my thirty years of teaching,
I have observed several definite
changes in lhe school system,"
Professor Walker mentioned after
leaving the problem of world economics. "For one thing, there has
been a shift in t h e type of study,
from what I'd consider t h e impractical courses to those of more utilitarian natures. S t u d e n t s have become more broadened, themselves,

Lead State's Attack
Before Record Crowd
Maloney's
Baloney
J. R. M.*~
Had we known that our drastic
departure from convention last week
in the form of our blaring "Beat
Siena!" head would have had such
a far-reaching influence, we'd have
gladly modified it to fit the gym.
The proverbially hard-packed sardines were a s free as penguins on
the Sahara in contrast to the tremendous crowd that Jammed Page
hall at last Friday's game.
Honest, we won't d o it again, because even we had to sweat t h r o u g h
t h e affair with a p a i r of bony Siena
patellas poked squarely between our
shoulder blades. And you who were
there know how that feels.
Seriously, though, it was the biggest crowd we've seen In our twoand-a-half basketball seasons. And
it goes farther than that with Chief
Engineer Hunt reporting it to be
the largest since he has been here.
Coach Hatfield, pinned down to
numbers, estimated a gate of from
1,200 to 1,500.
It was a good g a m e . There's no
use p a n n i n g t h e boys for losing
to a college w i t h o u t a senior class,
because t h e Loudonville outfit is
beyond all shadow of doubt a nicely
working combination. Frankly, we
feared defeat by a greater margin.
Over last week-end, t h e Green
a n d Gold split two after t h e S t a t e
game, falling in a close tilt to the
St. Bonnics a n d s w a m p i n g the same
Niagara of Rochester outfit t h a t
beat t h e m before, 60-38. Tucker, in
ail t h r e e w e e k - e n d frays collected
46 points.
Says Roy S h u d t of
Tucker in his Troy Record sports
column:
"And you're going to see in Howie
Tucker, shooting ace of t h e Siena
quint, a lad who'll be ripe for t h e
American (professional basketball)
League when h e g r a d u a t e s . "
Apparently t h e Siena boys were
as scared of F r a m e n t with his 22
point H a m i l t o n g a m e spree as our
outfit was of Tucker. Close g u a r d ing of Will led to t h r e e successive
fouls early in t h e game. Will, incidentally, exhibited his usual eagle
eye from t h e foul line in sinking all
three for S t a t e ' s first scoring.
Congrats to t h e cheerleading d e p a r t m e n t for some good new stuff.
Barring i n t e r v e n t i o n by the Dies
committee, t h e new "Sieg Heil" yell
has definite possibilities. We u n derstand
that
the
cheermakers
have whipped up some equally novel
howls for t o n i g h t ' s Niagara game.
As to t h e frosh game, the new
horn's note was a p p r o p r i a t e .
T h e second S i e n a - S t a t e contest
has been cancelled due to Siena's
inability to get a gym for t h a t night.
Still, can't a r r a n g e m e n t s be m a d e
for a n o t h e r night?
