A n d So Tomorrow Once again, our captains and our kings have departed, leaving behind them a trail ol history and memory, and once again their successors have stepped up from succeeding classes into the positions left vacant by them. This is, as always, self-evident and perennial, and it is thus for the sake of tradition. Whatever our opinions may be, it is not for us or for anyone to criticize, at this time, pasi errors and elisions. What has gone before is forever gone, and a new year, a new regime and new circumstances present lo State College a clean slate. At this time it is for us to express our gratitude to the class of 1943, for from them we have received friendship, assistance, and leadership. These things we have appreciated, and these things we shall miss. T o the class of 1943 we can only say, in order to escape sentimentality, "Au revoir, thank you, good luck." T h e usual things. What is to come will, in no sense of the word, be usual. This we can say with assurance. Slate College is entering its second iiilltime war year. The past year has been a transition year, lis situations have been difficult, lor they have been new. On this basis have been its procedures. M O N D A Y , M A Y 31 XI Biol. 15.. C o m . 13.

There are definite things which must be done. failure in the past to accomplish certain aims has been due to lack of cooperation from the student body. A thorough and determined bovcoii ol the Annex might have brought about a remedy for the oft-criiiti/ed situation. The complaints lodged againsi Residence Council might have been answered saiislac loi ilv il those who complained had taken advantage ol the opportunity ollered ihem in the council's open meeting. These situations mav siill be laced il the student bodv so desires. Vet another <ase which has not been touched is thai ol elections. I he apathy toward voting lor < lass and Student As sociation othceis was more pronounced than evei this year, l o o lew students realize that posscv sion ol a student tax and its consort privileges are also duties. No candidate lot an oHite ian be lairlv elected under present conditions, Here and now, we ask the student bod) to consider these questions, seriously and iinpar lially, and lorm decisions as to their part next year in a program lot the complete democratization ol Suit- College. Then and only then can we look forward lo next year with the hope and anticipation we mutt have in order ICJ create a collegiaie life we can point to with pride. IV Ed. 10a . Ed 100 . Ed. 10c .

Sports, Food (Bring Your Own), Will Highlight WAA Play Day Margin for Error by Margo Byrne Well, this issue sees the NEWS' year out and at this point the women's sports staff is pretty well jaded. The gals sit around with their chins in one hand and a chawed-off pencil in the other and chant," "Win, beat, conquer, down, "So and so gets .-'one up brown, "The paper just comes out, and then "We use the same durned words again." They call us the V-girls because we know so many synonyms for "to be victorious over". Of course, our own private organization is the J. Js., meaning Jaded Julias. In our own way we rival Dorcas Societies and Antivivisection Leagues. Seriously though, our chief has done a typical Wurz job. How could a person upholding the ideals of the Woman's League of Voters be otherwise than honest, industrious and reliable? She has really recognized the responsibilities of her position and acted always as she thought would best benefit women's sports at State College. So, in the name of the Staff, we assure her that she has left a high standard for us to aim at next year. WAA has also made a good record for the year despite the fact that weather was again 'em. We heard a captain unbalanced by a couple of set-backs, wallowing around the playing field muttering "Rain last fall, rain this spring — rain, rain, rain." Last fall one of her compatriots stood on the tennis courts, ankle deep in mud and broke her racquet into tooth picks. WAA had a particularly good choice of captains for the individual sports. Every sport that was offered drew out a very respectable number of girls, and the proof of the effectiveness of WAA is the effect it has on the student body. Win Jones deserves credit for starting WAA Flashes. This is the most significant contribution WAA has made this year. .by Joan Every day, in every way, Girls grow towards WAA. What the heck can you expect, when Uncle Sam has priority on men? Last fall, when MAA was a power on this campus (remember when State was a co-ed college?). A joint play-day was held with WAA. Those days are gone forever (sigh) for war has eliminated the attraction (?)—or distraction of the ERC's. The women, however, will bravely carry on (though not in the same manner as other years) by holding their annual playday tomorrow, May 15. Leda LaSalle, in charge of the festivities, predicts that "With the fine cooperation and the interest shown, the day promises to be one of the greatest in WAA's history—weather permitting (but it probably won't)." A varied program, featuring softball rivalry among the four classes has been arranged. The girls of '45, unbeaten in softball, challenge all comers (nothing like getting some good hard feelings in here)—oh, well, Albany's climate never did agree with us anyway. If softball doesn't appeal there will also be archery, volley ball, badminton or any other outdoor sport in which the girls wish to participate. Hylind. The fun begins at two o'clock on the field behind the Dorm. Those in charge, expecting that, once the girls get there they won't want to leave, extend this cordial (?) invitation, "Stay for supper—you bring the food." (The OPA is so stingy with those little blue and red stamps.) If it's fun, entertainment and companionship that you're looking" for (and who isn't) come around t o morrow. Give your corpuscles a work-out, dust off those muscles —oh, yes, you have them—(maybe you don't believe us now but you will Sunday). But cheer up so what if you can't move the next day—Sunday is a day of rest. Girlt Hike Tuesday For four weeks in succession hikes planned by Leah Tischler have been canceled by inclement weather. But, "Come what may," says Tischler, "there will be a hike this coming Tuesday." So all those hardened souls who enjoy walking, rais or shine, show up at 3:30 P. M. by the girls locker room in Lower Draper. As a starter a walk in the park is scheduled, with a longer jaunt, perhaps from the end of the bus-line to Indian Ladder, to come later. G E O R G E D.
