to attend the Christmas Semi-Formal, and that the
student body is unable to send a cheering section
with the team. We hope this can be done for the
next away games in January. In the meantime, this
weekend, we can support the team by renewing the
tradition of sending the team good luck telegrams. To

Christmas Party Succeeds,
Thanks To Well-Wishers
Think back, all you with that
"vacation's-over" look, to the
second assembly before Christmas and liberation, and you'll
remember dropping your last
pieces of silver into the box passed among us for contributions
for the Christmas party given to
the kids at the Albany Home for
Children. Well, Myskania would
like to let you all know what a
big success this affair turned out
to be, thanks to your own generosity, co-operation on the part
of many students, and also to a
bit of the Christmas spirit revealed by Albany merchants contacted for refreshments.
Special recognition goes to
Paul Anast's store, which contributed fifty-four pounds of
candy absolutely free of charge,
and to Brook's Doughnut Store,
which donated one-half of all
the doughnuts purchased.
And in case you were wondering about the final resting place
of those odd nickels and dimes
that always turn up after such
affairs, the probable outcome,
says Myskania, will be their return to Smiles, the organization
responsible for such
heartwarming enterprises as this one.
Assistant Professor of English, is
directing.
The program consists of a folk
play, "The Kelly Kid" by Norris and

ladies. The cast consists of Jeanne
Vnlachovic and Robert Wilcox, Juniors; Lorice Schain, Pauline Thompson, Rose Mary Willsey, and William Lyons, Sophomores. A child
from the Albany Home for Children
will also participate in the play.
A drama, "The Doctor's Duty" by
Luigi Pirandello, is about a man
who having killed a person attempts
to commit suicide. The cast for this
play includes Joseph Crulcilla, Mabel Totten, Judith Serebnick, Richnrd Clark, James Baumgarten, Margaret Howard, and George Christy,
Sophomores,
The third play, "The Ugly Duckling," is a comedy by A. A. Milne.
The plot centers around a homely
princess whose parents are trying
to marry her off to eligible suitors. Tlie cast includes Acher Borton, Joan French, Rhoda Riber,
Martin Bush, Shirley Shapiro, Anthony Prochilo, and Earle Jones,
Sophomores.

To Supplement Milne Program
The purpose of the program Is
to supplement Milne practice teaching by giving more practical experience, and to promote closer relations between State College and
the high schools of tlie state.
The present set up represents the
results of many years planning, but
Is entirely experimental, explains
Dr Frederick. Although the program will continue next year, it is
subject to many changes. Dr.
Frederick states, "The class of 1948
is witnessing a very significant development in the history of the
college, one for which we have long
been planning. The claw, of '48 can
be proud of the fact that it is the
class which Inaugurated
cadet
teaching In the high schools of the
state."
