This has been our aim this year. We have
tried to present the week at State College in
four pages every Friday. P^or us, it was more
than a first and second story for the front
page and a box for third. It was a panorama
of college life for the week. Twenty-eight
issues togther make up the college year of
1944-45. If you feel that we have presented
college life and spirit to you adequately, we
have succeeded, if not, we have failed.
Next week, a new News Board will assume
the responsibility of the paper for another
year. There may be a new masthead, but the
policy of the News remains the same. A student conceived and organized newspaper, it
remains solely a student organ. The person
who tries out for the News learns this as
thoroughly as he learns how to write stories
and headlines. We never forget it, and it is
your duty not to let us.

In Athletic Careers At College
:
Djr Joan Hyllnd
80 Solly
This is our week for apologies.
First they are extended to WAA for
our violation of a sacred trust in
using our column last week for purposes other than those directly connected with sports. Secondly, we
beg the forgiveness of the Seniors.
We certainly did not contribute
much towards a Senior issue that
would live up to their expectations.
We're sorry, but it seemed to us that
the issue at stake at the time took
precedence over any other consideration. By the way, it was a good
fight. We enjoyed it. The I.Q.C.
has a good idea there. Here's hoping they can carry it out successfully.
Not Again
But our apologies are not yet
complete. Last week the NEWS
copy was lost again. With a deadline only an hour away, we were
forced to compose a story on Major
League baseball, originally written
by George Hess—which reporter was
nowhere to be found a t the moment.
We uncovered one person who knew
the winner of last year's American
League and with that to go on, plus
the invaluable assistance of the
Sports page of the Times, we batted out what will probably go down
in history as the worst news story
ever written. Added to this, we
find that Detroit did not top the
National League. If any St. Louis
Brown fans were insulted by last
week's issue, we include them on
our list of PTAT*.
•People To Apologize To.
Spring
This is the time of year when
every respectable Senior is seen to
wipe away a furtive tear at the
mere mention of Moving-Up Day or
graduation. It's the time of year
when things you've known for four
years suddenly seem new and you
feel as if there is no time to have
your fill of seeing them. Some
friends you have made you know
you might never see again and you
try to crowd the lifetime of them
you may miss into a few fleeting
weeks that remain.
But this is a time, too, of a pull
in the other direction. College is a
phase of life much as childhood and
adolescence- are. And, like them, its
passing closes the door on one
world, but at the same time opens
another on a broader, wider world.
Mixed with the reluctance to leave
the old, is the desire to taste the
new. On the adjustment the individual makes between these two
forces, rests his future happiness
. and contentment.
'45 is the war-time class, the
last class which remembers State
before she lived in the shadow of
war. We're the solemn-faced kids
who listened to a firm but sad voice
announce that the United States
was at war. Now we are the class
that graduates on the threshhold
of peace. We graduate knowing
that part of us—the part of us that
marched off to battle—will be returning soon to resume its place.
We are happy knowing this.
From the Sublime
To proceed to a lighter frame of
mind, we hereby submit our list of
possible black-robed ones, with a p propriate comment:
1. Sullivan—Slow but sure.
2. Casey—Won't strike out.
3. McGrath—Steady performer.

The Class U '44 was always hailed as the record-breaking class, but
in looking back over the record of
this year's Seniors, it becomes obvious that they have left just as
many records in the dust. They
have excelled, not only in in scholastic achievements; their Signum
Laudls attaining the highest average that (.roup has ever had; but
also in the athletic world which will
be the main consideration here.
Good Start
Starting off with a bang, the first
week they were at State, Nora Giavelli signed up for the Tennis tournament. Little did she know that it
was the men's tourney she had let,
herself in for. MAA
officials
searched frantically in the books
but thert was no rule against girls
entering—it was just that no one
had ever tried it before. Nora distinguished herself in the tourney,
reaching the semi-finals before she
was defeated — by another '45'er,
Norm Finer. Fran Mullin, also of
the illustrious class, walked off with
the final honors in the tournament.
The frosh made a clean sweep of
the tennis court that year, with Flo
Garfall earning the crown in the
Women's division. By a set of circumstances—including the weather,
broken fingers, etc., Flo still has the
cup as no tournament has been
completed since 1941.
'45 Lost But
As so many other freshman
classes, '45 lost rivalry, but in some
of the individual encounters, they
came off very well. Girls' basketball was the heartbreaker. The frosh
took the first game, but a two-point
victory for the Sophs in the second
put them back in the running and
in a hectic final game they came
Rivalry Classes
Race For Points
Women's and men's rivalry contests this week will end the Rivalry
sports program for the year. Seven
points are involved and may be decisive in the final results.
Wednesday afternoon the women's contest took place at 4:30
on the field in front of the college.
Features were a three-legged race,
straight relay race, sack race, suitcase race and team relay races each
carrying one rivalry point.
The frosh participating were:
Ginny Young, Barbara Harris, Ruth
Osborne, Sheila Maginess, Scoop
Gilbert, Sue CConnell and Mary
Quinn. Young and Harris took
part in the suitcase race, Osborne
and Maginess in the relay race.
The sophomores were representee;
by Edna Sweeney, Martha Dunlay,
Gloria Baker, Louisa Rollema,
Marge O'Grady, Vivian Nielsen,
Betty Rose Hilt and Ann Mastrangelo.
In the men's division, the events
consisted of accuracy in baseball
throwing, distance in hitting and
speed in running bases. Frosh fellows were: Jim Brophy, John Bolles,
Sparky Vaughn, Bruce Hansen, Bill
Baldwin, Ray Cocuzzi, Rodney
Felder and John Hammond.
Representing the Sophs were:
Frank Woodworth, Hal Weber, Jim
Whytock, Gene McCarthy and Bill
Mallery.

through again 15-10. It was in
softball that '45's gals shone. They
knocked out 17 runs to 11 for the
Sophs, the favorites to win.
Victory
'46 didn't have a chance in the
athletic world against the might of
'45. The blue devils were smothered in football as the Soph men
romped off with a 27-6 victory tucked away. The men's basketball was
just as decisive. The 49-29 score is
sufficient evidence of that fact. The
girls, too, made a clean sweep in
their department. Points for basketball were earned by a 36-32 win
in the first game—an exciting overtime affair—and by a decisive 3325 score in the second. Softball fell
to the Sophs in an easy 35-25 win.
It was Dave Griffin, '45, who proved
to be the fastest man at State—on
the track, of course—in a race that
was the talk of the college for
weeks.
As Juniors, '45 continued to be
sparkplugs in WAA. They watched
over the frosh at camp, got pointers on hockey from Mary Now, just
returned from hockey camp. Then
there was the girls' football interlude with Juniors sparkplugging
many of the teams. At a Camp
Johnston week-end a group of them
aided the cause of WAA. Sanderson was behind the Mixed basketball game, in which the gals were
massacred but had a swell time
anyway.
The infirmities of old age and
the trials of practice teaching have
taken their toll on the Seniors but
they have kept up their interest
and skill in WAA. They have been
the mainstays of many a basketball
and bowling team.
Yahoo!
'45 may have lost its men, its
youth and its carefree attitude but
its "pep and drive" are still in
evidence.
Moving-Up Day . . .
(Continued from page 1, Col. 5)
3 P .M. to 5 P.M., an iced tea sponsored by Myskania is scheduled in
the Commons. Members of the Student body, their friends and relatives and faculty members, are invited.
In the evening, the Sophomorefreshman rivalry skits will be presented in Page Hall at 6:45. At 7:30
P.M., the four classes will take their
respective places on the front steps
of Draper Hall for the traditional
Moving-Up night sing. To climax
the day's activities, the winner of
the freshman-Sophomore
rivalry
will be announced, and the rivalry
cup presented to the President of
the victorious class. A dance in the
Commons will follow from 9 P.M. to
12 P.M.
Tomorrow will witness the culmination of the dreams and ambitions of literally hundreds of
State College students. It is the
day towards which all the efforts
of the past year have been directed. The secrecy of the "day of
days" has been played up enough
to need going into here. People
who know secrets are assuming
blank expressions —" trying to
make believe they don't. That's
a sport in itself.
But in the midst of all this conniving, double talk, tension, etc.,
stands the award of the WAA
trophies. It isn't a secret. Anyone can know. When the announcement is made tomorrow,
no one will be surprised. Phi Delt
.will send its representative to receive the grandly impressive bowling trophy, while the Gamma
Kap squad will accept the coveted and equally as impressive basketball award. It's in the bag.
Frosh Take Softball;
A d d To Rivalry Tally
Sophs Bow To Frosh, 13-7
In Exciting Scoring Spree
A determined freshmen squad took
the field Thursday afternoon and
finally broke the Sophomore winning streak by triumphing in the
rivalry softball game 13-7.
Peg Daly starred as the frosh
pitcher. In the first inning Jean
Valentine, Lydia Boynton and Pat
Tiiden brought in runs for '48, but
the Sophs were unable to connect
with Daly's slow, steady ball and
the second frame opened 3-0 in favor
of the freshmen.
The next inning was one of sloppy
fielding for the Sophomores but neither team made any runs and at the
top half of the third the frosh still
held their lead. Forty-seven struck
out again and as the possibility of a
shut-out game loomed the freshmen
sought a more decided victory. The
daffy cheering section roared their
delight as Valentine, Shapiro, Boynton, Tiiden, Diehl, Lengyel, Young
and Daly all come home in the bottom of the third and the score was
11-0.
The Sophomores thwarted '48's
hope for a ciphered game when
Sweeney and Margot came home in
the fourth. But the frosh evened up
their lead bringing Young and Daly
in and the last inning opened 13-2
for. the freshmen.
The Gremlins now seemed to find
Daly's pitch and made a final valient
try to even up the score. Sue Campbell, Edna Sweeney, Jean Davidson
( a triplet, Vivien Nielson and Bertha Wakin completed the diamond
and the game closed 13-7.
Have you ever heard of Campbell? No? Well don't feel bad
'cause not many people have heard
of it. The same can't be said tho'
for its star resident and this week's
TNT'er — Gloria Russo. Campbell
declared a holiday and went into
mourning when she left. You know
one person in a town of 200 means
a lot. There she participated in all
the major sports offered in the
high school—basketball, softball and
track. Track, however, should not
be taken to mean just track — a t
Campbell it was all inclusive, and
relays, dashes, broad jumps and
high jumps, came under this heading.
Gremlin Gain
"One man's loss is another's
gain," they say and Russo was definitely a gain for the Gremlins. I n
her freshman year, she obtained
credit in three sports—softball, basketball and hiking. She took part
in rivalry swimming, basketball,
softball and track events. Early her
skill in basketball wass noted and it
was undoubtedly one of the main
factors in helping '47 win rivalry
basketball last year against some of
'46's seasoned players. She also
participated in swimming and ping
pong not receiving credit, however,
in either of these sports.
In her second year, Russo was appointed co-captain of WAA swimming and captain of the rivalry
swimming team (which won incidentally). She obtained credit in
four more sports — ping pong,
hockey, life-saving and again the
old stand-by, basketball. Most of
her fame this year, has come as a
result of this sport. She was in the
line-up of Sophs who played in the
rivalry game this year. She came
to the aid of the Gremlins in both
games with 19 and 17 points
All State Forward
No one can deny that she was
one of the mainstays on Newman
Hall's squad this year. And didn't
they end up in the big three of basketball? Recognition of her outstanding playing was awarded last
week, when she was chosen as a
forward on the All-State Star basketball team!
Turning to her swimming record,
we find that she took part in the
rivalry swim meet last year, winning one of the novelty races. This
year, she went out for live-saving,
obtaining a life-saving certificate as
well as enough hours to receive
credit.
Just
before
Easter
vacation,
something happened to her back,
which, unless some quick mending
takes place, will prevent her from
participating in any more sports,
this year or next. This would not
only be a loss to the class but to
State as well. A good all-around
sport is always missed. Somehow
we feel tho', that this is not the
end of her spectacular sports career. Good mending Russo!

ALBANY, NEW YORK, FRIDAY, M A Y , 11 1945
VOL. XXIX NO. 25
Myskania Taps Thirteen
Weinberg Wins
Vice Presidency,
O Brien Secretary
By a substantial majority of the
votes cast in last Friday's election
Helen Slack Shure gained the office
of President of Student Association
for next year. Out of a total of
818 votes cast, Mrs. Shure gained
an easy margin for herself on the
first distribution, polling 457 votes,
47 votes over the quota.
Robert Sullivan, runner-up in the
race with a total of 279 votes, failed
to equal his record of last year
when he captured the vice-presidency of Student Association by approximately the same margin that
Mrs. Shure carried this year. James
Crandall, the third candidate, failed
to even show in the election, trailing Mr. Sullivan by 198 votes.
Weinberg On Third
The Vice-Presidency election was
more hotly contested, the main contest being between Mr. Lashinsky
and Mr. Weinberg. Weinberg's
majority in the third and last distribution was only 8 votes. Lorna
Kunz and Gertrude Smith both
drew small totals.
O'Brien Wins Easily
The Secretarial race narrowed
down to two candidates due to the
previous preferences of both Justine
Maloney and Gloria Gilbert for
other offices. Jane O'Brien easily
won over her opponent, Hilda Fielder, piling up a 297 vote majority.
The Grand Marshall election was
never long in doubt as Betty Hamilton took the lead on the first distribution and reached the quota on
the third distribution. Her nearest
competitor was Marianne Davis.
Casey Is Songleader
Other Student Association elections resulted in the victory of Peggy Casey as Songleader and Betty
Brennan, Mary Carey, Rita Coleman and Genevieve Sabatini as
Cheerleaders. In explanation of
the last distribution for the Songleader election, it will be noted that
Miss Casey needed only a few votes
to reach the quota of 410 so that
only enough of Mary Telian's votes
were distributed until Miss Casey
got the required total.
The newly elected members of
the Student Board of Finance for
next year are Judith Gerofsky,
Gloria McFerran, Betty J. McGrath
and Joseph Palevsky from the class
of 1946; Justine Maloney and Trudy
Smith from the class of 1947.
New members of the Student
Union board are Katherlne Kendall, and Jean Whitney of the class
of 1940 and Carol Berg and William
Mallory of the Class of 1947.
'40 Student Council
Student Council for the coming
year will consist of the following
members besides the Student Association officers and the class presidents: Class of 1940, Eileen Moody,
Shirley Passow, Louise Stryker and
Robert 3uMvan; Class of 1947,
Celena Axelrod, Joy Beckers, Ruth
Bentley and Philip Lashinsky;
Class of 1948, John Bolles, Rita
Coleman, Robert Hardt and Alice
Prindle. To these will also be added the members elected from the
incoming freshman class.
Serving under Miss Hamilton on
Campus Commission next year will
be Marian Vitullo, Ann Lusock,
Lorna Kunz, Judy Dube, Jean Elting,
Juniors; Elaine Tepper, Mary Jean
