Smith Completes Editions
For Use in Junior High Civics
s •
State's faculty is very versatile—
in some respects at least. For instance take the author-professors
in the Social Studies Department.
They have written and will publish
several books this year.
Dr. Donald V. Smith, has recently completed two books—"Community Living" for seventh graders, and
"Our National Community" for use
in eighth grade civics classes. These
books do not contain ordinary text
material; instead they state general topics, give a short description
under each, but principally afford
the student a list of references for
further study on each topic.
This novel organization of a civics book was adopted as Dr. Smith
said, "to let the students draw their
own conclusions, instead of accepting ready-made conclusions of an
author."
History Through Biography
"Makers of Latin America" cpenly
professes to be a text-book—but a
text-book of another color. Written
by Dr. Watt Stewart, Professor of
Social Studies at State, and Dr. Harold Peterson of State Teachers' College in Buffalo, the book teaches
history in a new way. Each of its
twenty-two chapters consists of a
condensed biography of a historically prominent person. From such
a series of individual biographies,
students will be able to assemble the
facts found in ordinary history textbooks, but he will be able to associate them with people and will thus
remember them better.
Dr. Robert Rienow, Assistant Professor of Social Studies, is the proud
author of a book, "Calling All Citizens," to be published in February
or March by the Houghton, Mifflin
Company. A junior high-school text,
It took three years to complete and
was tried out in Milne High School
for a year.
According to its author, the book
approaches the subject of citizenship from an entirely new and different angle. Said Dr. Rienow, "The
whole purpose of the book is to get
the student to think for himself and
to ask, "What can I do about it?"
The subject matter is enlivened to
make it more interesting."
Brochure For Ili-Y
Parallel to his work in citizenship,
Dr. Rienow has prepared a brochure
to aid Hi-Y Clubs by suggesting legislative proposals for the Hi-Y Assembly to be held this year on December 13, 14 and 15 in Albany. Dr.
Rienow believes that the Hi-Y assembly should initiate constitutional
amendments as well as introducing
measures concerning state law.
The
Independent
Regulatory
Commission, which deals with coalmining and distribution, is the subject of a book by Dr. Ralph E. Baker, who will probably title his brainchild, "National Bituminous Coal
Commission." Dr. Baker used a part
of the book as his doctoral dissertation which he compiled under the
supervision of the "Johns Hopkins
Craft." This association expects to
sponsor the publishing of the book
on which Dr. Baker spent four
years.
Banner Rivalry Begins Monday
Attics and roofs will be the most
popular spots at State this week.
Opportunity for a repetition of last
year's buttle roy,'le will be given
to the sophemores and freshmen
women Monday when banner rivalry
starts. Each class must hide Its own
banner somewhere on the campus.
Brubacher Lounge
I N THIS FIREPLACE the first Are for State College was lighted. Whether or not
the mansion can be adapted for use as a Student Union is a subject under investigation
by Student-Faculty Discussion Group,
Faculty Examines Farrel Mansion
For Student Union Possiblities
With all thoughts about the Farrell Mansion centering on the feasibility and the possibility of having
a Student Union, the problem arises
as to whether or not the building
itself is suited for such an undertaking.
Last Thursday evening the mansion was the scene of the President's
reception, its first social function.
The faculty and members of the
State Education Dapartment were
Invited to make a tour of the building and Myskania servec.
On the first floor there are three
large rooms. One might be used
for afternoon dancing and the other
two as lounges. For formals, all
three plus the large foyer could be
used as a dance floor. In one of
the rooms, there is a completely
hand carved fireplace. Another room
has paneling carved from one piece
of wood and is papered with Chinese wallpaper, costing $48 a roll
and requiring 21 rolls to paper the
room. The rug in that room is
valued at $2,000. A grand staircase
leads from the foyer to the second
floor and from the second to the
third floor.
Five rooms on the second floor
could be made available for student
use as game rooms, discussion
rooms, or reading rooms.
On the third floor, there is one
lar^e room which could bo used us
a study or music room and EIX
smaller rooms which the student
activities could use.
Perhaps the most interesting part
of the house is the cellar. The laundry room has seven immense drie s
which slide into u case. There are
two wine cellars, filled only with
memories and no wine. Two new
oil burners were installed recently.
The basement could also be use I
for student activities.

and still more needed to compensate for wear and tear, it would be
impractical to turn the Lounge into
another Commons. The rules governing the Ingle Room—denial of
the use of that room to no o n e will be in force in the Lounge also.
It is the desire of the Board of
Directors to make the Alumni Residence Halls the center of State College's sociul life. Two weeks ago,
when the Brubacher Memorial
Lounge was completed, the men of
Sayles Hall held a general reception in Sayles Hall. Last week both
the Lounge and the Ingle Room
were used for the All-State Dance.
Many other social functions which
woud make use of the Residence
Halls have been planned. Thus a
definite trend toward centralization
of social life is shaping up.
Humor Lecture in Albany
Fun-loving State students
are in for a treat when Elsa

SADIE HAWKINS DAY
WHEREON, a foot race will be
held, the unmarried gals go to
chase the unmarried men and if
they ketch them, the men by law
must marry the gals and no two
ways about it.
It all started two years ago in the
"L'il Abner" comic strip when Sadie
Hawkins, the homliest gal In Dogpatch, set about to get her a husband. After fifteen years of waitin',
her pappy, Hekzebian Hawkins
called together the young bachelors
of the neighborhood and said, "Boys,
ah gotta take firm measures!" With
that, he proclaimed that the first
man Sadie caught was legally her
husband.
The idea of having a day when
co-eds could catch a man spread
quickly to the colleges of the midwest where Sadie Hawkins Day was
celebrated enthusiastically. At State
over 200 people signed up for it in
five days.

Women Get New Chance
To Capture L'il Abners
One day, one proclamation,
one riot—thus began the "new
freedom" for State College women when "Hey there, li'l Abner, kin I hev a dance, kin I,
huh?" released them from the
status of forgotten females.
Three State women walked
into the NEWS office yesterday,
presented an official proclamation supplementing the Dogpatch original, and left elated.
Marie Bailie, '43, and Grace
Forbes and Martha Sprenger,
freshman, declared, "Through
spontaneous decision, State women acclaim every Friday noon
to be Sadie Hawkins hour."
Almost 500 women have signed the proclamation which bade
the men to "give us a chance;
everyone of you will be at the
mercy of State's designing females."
Cutting will be sanctioned, but
all other rules now prevailing in
the Commons will be observed.
Sale of Directories
Tuesday, Wednesday
Insufficient Advertisements
Necessitates Small Charge
Students of State College may obtain the 1941-'42 Director!) before
they leave for Thanksgiving vacation. Directories will be on sale
Tuesday and Wednesday at 10c, a
copy in the Co-op and lower hall
of Draper.
The keynote of this year's cover
design will be simplicity, with the
State College seal against a woodgrain background.
Nicholas Morslllo, '42, Editor-inChief, believes that this year's Directory will be the most accurate in
its history. The posting of the proofs
in the lower hall of Draper found
that many corrections were needed.
Although the publishing cost of
the Directory was somewhat reduced by the sale of
advertising, the
i d e a on the
whole was not a
c o m p le t e success.
The new feat u r c s of t h i s
year's Directory
include advertising, the social
and
academic
calendar for the
school year, and

list of faculty mom bora, men's
and women's group houses and college telephones.

Speculation over fraternity bidding sounds the major note in
State's issues of the week, with the
bid distribution set for Monday from
9 A, M. to 1 P, M. Male members of the class of 1945 will receive
notes on Monday morning from
Intel-fraternity
Council, Maxson
Reeves, '42, President, explained requesting them to report in the
Lounge within the designated hours
to receive their bid or bids. Signed
bids must be returned the Monday
noon following Thanksgiving vacation.
The fraternity rushing procedure
was altered this year by the entrance
of two new factors: the decrease in
masculine registration, and the presence of Sayles Hall. The male enrollment caused a more intensive
system of rushing, and Indicates
that there will bo a lower percentage
of men pledged.
Mere M'nss Rushing
Addition of a men's dormitory to
State College gave fraternities more
opportunity for mass rushing. How
much effect the geographical location of Sayles Hall had on rushing
procedure Is a question open to
much discussion. But due to the
fact that 40% of tiie men in the
freshmen class are commuters, the
dorm does not control the situation.
An analysis of fraternity rushing
and bidding necessarily includes the
past records of the four fraternities.

The STATE COLLEGE NEWS assumes no responsibility
for opinions expressed In Its columns or communications,
as such expressions ilo not necessarily reflect Its view.
Wanted: More Men
Statistics of enrollment ratios of men to
women reveal that there was a steady rise
from 1925 to 1940 in the number of men in
the college. In 1925 there were ten times
as many women as men, in 1930 the ratio
was six to one, in 1937 two and a half to one
and 1940 found the ratio decreased to two
to one.
The two to one ratio, however, did not last.
Opportunity for employment in wartime industry and the Selective Service Act have
depleted the number. Men in the upper
classes have dropped out and the number
in the entering freshmen class does not exceed 61. The end of the first semester, may
see a withdrawal of men in the 1A classification.
State College needs men, yet there is little
apparent effort being made to secure them.
What is needed here is greater publicity,
publicity of a type that will attract to State
College a larger portion of the male element
of the State. Such a publicity program would
include a well integrated Press Bureau with
substantial financial resources, a more State
College conscious Alumni organization whose
representatives in schools throughout the
state would urge students to attend State
College. And more coverage in the local and
home town newspapers. The name of State
College and what it stands for should be
spread by all available means throughout the
State of New York.
Men are needed and publicity will bring
them. Publicity then is the watchword.
The Ashtray Address
One week and several hours ago our Campus Commission brought forth in this school,
12 new ash trays, made of bronze and dedicated to the proposition that all ash trays are
to be used carefully.
Now the student body is on trial; testifying whether these ash trays or any others so
made and so dedicated can long endure, We
have come to use a portion of the Commons
and the P.O. as a final resting place Tor those
trays which were given, that the students
might smoke. It is altogether fitting and
proper that we ahold do this.
But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate!,
wo cannot buy any ash trays like these, The
brave men, Sayles and Campus Commission,
who struggled to get them have bought
twelve trays at one dollar each. It is NOT
above our power to save nor destroy them.
The world will little note nor long remember what we write here, but it can never
forget what the ash trays do for the student
body. It is for us, the living, to be dedicated
to the unfinished task of keeping them in
good condition—so that these trays, of the
students, by the students, and for the students, might not perish from the school.

two of t h e most soUl-satisfying days t h a t S t a t e women

t h r e e days later, they were m a d e plenteous.
T h e idea for t h e first day arrived a t t h e college a

the ball started to roll.
All t h a t day, t h e posters were surrounded by
s t u d e n t s interested in knowing just w h a t was going
on. Late t h a t afternoon a poster was put u p for u n m a r r i e d men to sign.
T h i n g s went along fine. As yet no one knew w h a t
t h e underlying idea was. Everyone was in favor of it,
though.
T h e m a r c h of events continued. Another poster was
m a d e for unmarried women to sign. A set of rules
was formulated. More t h a n two h u n d r e d s t u d e n t s

It must have sounded like a good thing to t h e
S i e n a boys, because they came down—and how! At
8:30 t h a t evening, there were about 80 men in t h e
Ingle Room, all waiting for t h e open house to begin.
In t h e r e were also exactly five Pierce Hall girls.
T h e situation was desperate. T h e worried c h a i r m a n

Slowly t h e Ingle Room took on t h e a p p e a r a n c e of a

I n a n a t t e m p t to Investigate further t h e actual possibilities of a

T h o u g h no definite plan for fin a n c i n g t h e Union has been a d v a n c ed, it is highly probable t h a i college
organizations will be subjected to
a budget cut. A. Harry Passow, '42,
C h a i r m a n of t h e Student Union I n vestigation Committee, stated, "If
t h e s t u d e n t body really wants a U n ion, sacrifices on t h e part of all organizations will be involved. T h e
new a u d i t i n g system should create
a surplus in t h e budget which could
be given lo the Student Union
Fund."
Progress in carrying out Lhe p r o posal is necessarily slow. However,
plans must be completed as early
as possible next, semester If the
Union is to be a reality by September, 1942.

During First Day's Struggle
Yesterday afternoon Intramural
Council raised t h e curtain o n intramural basketball to inaugurate the
1041-42 court season.
In t h e opening contest yesterday,
Kappa Beta emerged as victorious
over K D R In a closely fought battle
by a score of 18-11. College House
displayed a good offense in bowling
over t h e Ramblers, 28-12.
As announced by K e n Johnson
and Hal Singer, co-chairmen of the
basketball league, there will be t w o
games played o n every Tuesday and
Thursday followed by a single contest o n Friday. T h e first game will
begin promptly at 4 o'clock.
According to this setup, the eight
teams of the league will be able to
play each other twice instead of the
customary single meeting. If the
schedule as arranged is not hindered by intervening circumstances, all
but four games of the first round
will be completed before t h e Christmas vacation.
An announcement h a s been made
by the Hygiene department t h a t n o
one will be allowed to participate
in league games with glasses, unless
"he hands in a written permission"
signed by one of his p a r e n t s or
guardians. This ruling will be strictly enforced.

morning's assembly.
This year the members will be
chosen from t h e senior class; in
the future, however, juniors who
have completed their fifth semester m a y be admitted. Membership
is based on scholarship a n d interest in t h e business education field.
A committee of commercial students under t h e c h a i r m a n s h i p of
Mary Viliano, '42, began organizing
this c h a p t e r of t h e society on October 4. At present t h e r e a r e 52

Football Spirit Goes Formal
At Newman Hall Tonight
Goal posts, brightly colored
pennants, and yard line markers will decorate Newman Hall
tonight when the Newmanites
present their annual fall formal. I n keeping with the spirit
of the season, the theme of the
dance will be a football game
with football sayings and megaphones providing an authentic
atmosphere.
Dancing will take place between the hours of 9:30 and 1
to the music of Jack Gentry
and his orchestra. A large scoreboard will be used to announce
the order of the dances. The
dance h a s been planned under
the direction of Ruth Schmitt,
'44, general chairman. It is e x pected that about 35 couples
will attend.
Sororities to Complete
Formal Rushing Plans
Sorority rushing will be climaxed
after Thanksgiving vacation with
t h e Annual Silent a n d F o r m a l
Rush Periods. While sororities are
completing p r e p a r a t i o n s for their
a n n u a l r u s h parties, t h e F r e s h m e n
women will receive rushing instructions in t h e weekly orientation
class of November 24.
Silent period h a s been extended
this year from Friday, November
28, to Tuesday, December 9. Each
sorority will give a buffet supper
a n d formal dinner on December 5
a n d 6 respectively.
T h e rushees will receive invitations to these parties on November
29, a n d a r e requested t o r e t u r n
t h e m , having checked t h e parties
which they desire to a t t e n d .
On Monday, December 8, p r e ference slips will be sent to all
freshmen women. They must be
filled out according to t h e order of
sorority preferences a n d submitted
to t h e Dean of Women's office by
12 noon of t h e same day.
Rushees a r e requested to visit t h e
Dean of Women's office, where expense sheets m a y be consulted along
with a list of members of each
sorority.
Ten men are still battling for
positions o n the freshman basketball squad, following the first cut
of the season. Coach G. Elliot Hatfield emphasized, however, that this
is but a tentative selection and it
is possible that the group may be
further whittled to eight before the
curtain raiser against Albany Academy, December 6.
The following men have survived
the axe-wielding: Dick Beach, Buck
Hlppick, Warren Kullman, Stan
Gipp, Fran Mullin, Art Olivet,
Zollie Privett, John Sussina, Joe
Tassoni and Frank Woodworth.
The fact that the varsity is carrying fifteen men this year, will
enable the frosh to operate with
less t h a n two t e a m s . With intramural basketball occupying the gym
t h r e e afternoons a week, the frosh
a r e forced to practice t h e same time
as t h e varsity. With this a r r a n g e m e n t i n mind, Coach Hatfield plans
on pitting two varsity t e a m s against
each o t h e r a n d working out t h e
freshmen against t h e third.
SCA Plans College Sunday
T h e S t u d e n t Christian Association will observe "State College
S u n d a y " November 16 with a religious service a t t h e First Presbyterian Church, a t 11 A. M. Dr. J o h n
M. Sayles, President of t h e College,
and K a t h r y n Wilson, President of
BOA, will p a r t i c i p a t e .
Coach Searching for Team^ Co-ordinator
As Squad Shapes Up for Coming Season
Another Duke Hirsch or Tommy
Ryan is what Coach Hatfield is trying to And among the members of
this year's varsity basketball squad.
Someone w h o will not only hold
t h e m e n together o n the court but
who will give spark to their play.
Tom Peeney looks like the man
for the job. It is one thing to watch
a squad go smoothly through its
plays in practice but quite another
to see that team in a game where
not only plays but competitive spirit counts. And Peeney h a s that
spirit. His one weakness is his reluctance to shoot from the floor.
As the team shapes up so far
Bob Combs has about the best eye
o n the team, but that may not
help much if he does not show a
little more spirit t h a n h e did with
the frosh last year. T h e c o - c a p tains, Hank Brauner a n d Bill Dickson, d o n o t quite m e a s u r e up t o
t h e i r responsibilities a t t h i s writ-
ing. Dickson was not exactly outstanding for his scoring last season and Brauner h a s slowed up
considerably although he looks as
good as ever under the basket.
Bye Benton, Bill F o r r e s t and
Fred Beyer are t h r e e big question
m a r k s . If B e n t o n c a n check as
he did in t h e P r a t t g a m e in New
York last season a n d c a n learn to
use h i s h e i g h t to a d v a n t a g e , h e
will be invaluable to t h e team.
F o r r e s t ' s performance fell off after h i s early success with t h e frosh
last year. He will be o n h i s mettle
to show t h e t e a m t h a t h e c a n
help i n t h e scoring column. Beyer
h a s a g r e a t deal of n a t u r a l ability
but lacks t r a i n i n g a n d experience.
His pass-work is h i s weakest point.
Moose Gerber's p e r f o r m a n c e in
practice sessions shows a definite
i m p r o v e m e n t over his " h o t and
cold" exhibitions of last lear.

C a m p u s Chest Resolution
Don Vanas, '43, will introduce in
assembly a resolution which will p r o vide for the establishment of a C a m pus Chest. If t h e resolution is a p proved, all students will be asked to
give a n y a m o u n t of money they c a n
afford to a fund from which c o n t r i butions will be given to t h e various
charitable organizations which m a k e
appeals to t h e s t u d e n t body. T h e
need for such an organization was
most, acutely felt last fall when four
such institutions asked for money
within a two-week period. E s t a b lishment of this Chest would eliminate t h e necessity of such drives, all
such appeals being relegated to i.lio
Chest Committee for consideration.
C a m p u s Chest Committees
This resolution provides for the
establishment of a C a m p u s Chest
Committee, to consist of t h e Presid e n t a n d Vice-President of t h e S t u dent Association, t h e president of

of t h e three leading religious organizations—SCA, Newman Club, a n d

Two Paintings Stolen
From Martin s Exhibit
Hutchins Discovers Theft
Before Thanksgiving Holiday
Discovery of t h e theft of two
highly-prized water colors from t h e
Draper Hall exhibit by Miss Grace
Martin. Instructor in Art, prompted
an administrative warning t h a t a n other such episode would b r i m r e strictive measures on a n y further
exhibitions. T h e paintings were taken before the Thanksgiving vacation.
As far as can be determined, t h e
pictures were stolen between (i P. M.
Thursday, November 13, a n d 10:30
A. M. the next day when Miss R u t h
Hutchins, also of t h e Art D e p a r t ment, discovered t h e theft a n d r e orrted it to Miss Martin. When
Miss Hutchins a t first noticed t h a t
the paintings of a u t u m n landscapes
were misshvr, she believed that Miss
Martin had received an opportunity
to sell them.
Miss Martin herself says, " I t
would be cmbarassing if the p a i n t ings were returned now because it
mi'jht mean that the paintings are
not valued. It really is flattering I
suppose, but a t the same time I'd
r a t h e r be paid for the pictures or
give them to someone of my own
choice."
T h e landscapes were large ones
measuring 18 x 24 inches.
As yet, no definite action has
been taken to prevent additional
thefts. Miss Hutchins believes that
il would be feasible to have cither
portable .screens or glass covere I
boards for Inline displays.
