Mulford. By RUTH COOKINGHAM Religious instruction in public school buildings was declared unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court March 8, but action taken as a result of this decision has been such as to question the effectiveness of the decision. Several administrative officials for the city and the state of New York have voiced their opinions on the inefficucy of the declaration in changing the New York system. Dr. William Jansen, Superintendent of Schools of New York City, announced no change in the city's program of permitting children to lcavc the school building to receive rchgious instruction 'during school Matthews Lists Seniors Placed Through Bureau Mr. Elmer Matthews, Director of the Teacher Placement Bureau, has released the names of the Seniors who have received teaching positions through the bureau in the past two weeks.

He "guesses" that the ruling would not affect the New York school system "very much." Nicholas Bucci, law secretary of the Board of Education, said that another Supreme Court decision would be necessary to affect New York's city system. Charles A. Brind, counsel for New York State Educatio n Department, announced that the current practice of allowing children to take religious Instruction outside regular school classes would be continued unless the law permitting it was held unconstitutional. At the moment there are, according to Mr. Mulford, several controversial situations which continue to confuse the problem. First, emlnent counsel holds that the decision has not merely stopped releasedtime training within school buildhigs; rather the long-time practices, heretofore lawful, of renting space In school buildings for any religious purpose must stop. Arguments of justices conflict with practices so much that if they were pressed into practice it would take ten years to clear the decision. Communications are going to all the 3,000 community councils on religious education in the United States urging them to strictly observe the law but not give up hope that tho problem will be solved. A new group of approximately 30 leaders has formed to try to implement the recommendations of the American Council on Education to create an "awareness" regarding religion in the public school curriculum. And lastly, greater publicity is being planned to show the inconsistency of "separation of Church and State," Illustrated by the use of religious faith as a basis for charges of perjury and for swearing officials into office.

Of great concern to a large percentage of our student body a t the present time is the problem of what is to be done about the Pedagogue. With the presentation of the yearbook's budget in the special assembly early this week came discussions concerning the cost per student, the distribution, and the value of the publication. Some students feel that it should be only a Senior class book; others think that the entire cost of the book per student should be included in everyone's student tax; still others want the receipt of a yearbook left entirely up to the discretion of the individual. This is a matter for careful consideration. So many arguments both pro and con m a y be given that if these arguments are only accepted on face value, we will find ourselves revolving in a vicious circle. At Student Council meeting Wednesday night, an Inquiry Board was appointed to investigate this situation. We, who finance the yearbook through our student tax, must know the facts and more facts than have been presented. N o t only will the Ped be represented on the Board but also students who have shown genuine interest in settling the issue. Concrete suggestions and plans will be presented by this Board in the May 14 assembly. However, before this Board may present any plans, the resolution asking for an $1.25 studenttax raise to cover the entire cost of a yearbook for each student must be passed or defeated. Before taking sides on the Ped question, we must not fail to realize that though the sheet of paper on the Husted bulletin board reads—surplus . . . $6,038.99, below this item in red pencil stands the "Payable from Veteran's Administration" . . . $5,366.15. This deficit under which we are working leaves an actual amount of $672.84. To continue dreaming about this surplus is ridiculous. I t may be next month or it may be a year before this money is in the hands of the Board of Finance. Let us consider the following: 1. The '48-'49 budget has been drawn up upon the expected registration of 1,500 students. We have no assurance of this enrollment and are $63 short on next year's budget before September even comes. 2. Appropriations were made last fall on a budget total which included the money due from the Veteran's Administration. 3. If the money is not received from the Veteran's Administration, the amount of money in the surplus may have to go to meet the budget for the current year. 4. The surplus has been built up in the past from the infirmary fund to which each student paid $3.00. The adoption of the insurance plan has eliminated this source of income. Under normal conditions, the solution might he quite different but considering existing conditions, wc should view this question on a long-range basis. The answer might lie in increasing the student tax to $16, thereby building up the surplus, leaving tlie I'ed as it stands at present for one year, and making definite provision that the following year wt do one of two tilings: 1. Provide that the student tax include complete cost of I'ed whereby everyone in SA automatically receives a copy. 2. .Make the Pedagogue a Senior class book. The Inquiry Hoard will advise—the decision is up to YOli. It's your money; it's your yearbook.

This new look will take us beyond the athletic program of State College and will branch out into the fertile field of other college activities and national sports on the outside. ICA, at its recent conference, lias taken a good look into the possibilities of starting an inter-collegiate program. It is definitely a step in the right direction. 'Tis rumored that State may act as host to a woman's basketball play-day next winter. This could give WAA a tremendous boost in prestige and interest. Let's not let the idea die on third! The Problem The proposed Varsity League between the Teacher Colleges presents multi problems, but none of these are too big to overcome IF we are determined to do so. The money question rears its ugly head as the distance between the colleges is much greater than that usually travelled by the Varsity. Coach Hathaway suggests an East-West division with play-offs between the winners. Well . . . why not? It is a known fact that all Teacher Colleges are not of equal athletic strength. We suggest that if a functioning league of this type gets under way, the Teachers Colleges will attract students who wish to participate in sports. And if basketball seems like too big an undertaking, let's start a League in minor sports where the ability differences are not so great. The point is, LET'S GET STARTED SOMEWHERE. We hear a great deal about Public Relations lately. Can you think of a better way to get the public interested in State College than to become members of a Teacher College League? The hit and miss scheduling which it has been impossible to avoid under the present system does not spread our fame. The ICA League could. Speaking of scheduling, this plan would certainly save Coach and his assistants a powerful number of headaches. The Other Half Turning to the national scene, the major leagues got under way this week. Of course it is too early to make any predictions, but we'll put our money on "Dem Bums." The Albany Senators, whom reporters seem to think will put up a good team this year, will open their season Tuesday against Hartford at Havtfcul. The Club will go into the Eastern League pennanc race with the oldest club in the Richardson loop. The combined player average is 26 years. Milne High will play eight home games this season. This should give us a chance to see some of our perspective students in action. The Big News Since the biggest news of the day is the debut of our own 1948 Baseball Varsity, we can't help but urge all you who would like to see the team in action to join us at Bleeker Stadium at four o'clock. Today's the day. Admission by student tax. The long awaited results of the WAA Ping Pong Tournament give the championship to Addle Fischer '48. She clowned Elsa Moberg '49, in the finals to cop this .year's woman's title. As a closing thought, though it is with us nil of the time, we take this opportunity to compliment Paula, our venerable editor, on the swell job she has done on Sports Page this year. It's been real, Tichy. Siena, ABC Contests Scheduled NextWeek Today the '48 edition of the State baseball team takes the field for their opening game against Pharmacy. The opener will be played at Bleeker Stadium at four o'clock. Although State played Inter-Collegiate baseball on an informal basis last year, this season will be its first big season since the late thirties. State has a ten game slate lined up for the season, facing six different opponents. State played Pharmacy twice last year. After losing the first game to the "druggists," the team bounced back and took the second game for a split for the season. During next week, State will play two games. Monday will see the Varsity renewing relations with ABC at Ridgefield. On Thursday, State takes up last year's rivalry with Siena. The team will be out to avenge two defeats at the hands of the "Indians" last year. This game will be played at Siena. In the pitching department, Coach Hathaway has a well balanced six-man squad. Four are righthanders; Hank Farley, Harvey Clearwater, John Dalton and Bob Tucker. The two port-sides are "Hy" Blavatnick and Ben Santora. Probable starting line-up: Monroe, second base. George, center field. Warden, first base. Kaehn, left field. Dickinson, right field. Marzello, third base. Glenday, catcher. Farley, Clearwater or Blavatnick, pitcher. Reserves include: Infielders — Carter, Englehardt, Howarth, Durkee. Outfielders—MacDonald. Catcher—Stevenson. Pitchers — Dalton, Tucker and Santora. State Archers To Enter Contest State College has been invited to take part in the 19th Annual Woman's Telegraphic Archery Tournament, according to Elizabeth Winkler and Martha Mason, Juniors. The State entry will be arranged under the auspices of WAA Archery Captains. The Tournament, which Is sponsored by the Woman's National Archery Association, is open to all colleges having women students. It is conducted by districts as well as through national championships. Eight women will compose a team to be entered in the contest. The captains will hold practice sessions on the Dorm Field on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons as well as special sessions for those Who wish to practice at another time. Anyone interested in trying out for the team should contact Winkler or Mason immediately or sign the sheet provided on the WAA Bulletin Hoard. The matches will be shot here at State between May 81 h and May 15th. The tourney, conducted in accordance with the Columbia Round, will include fifty, forty and thirty yard distances. All undergraduate women are eligible and the eight high scores will be telegraphed to district and national tournament headquarters. Rating certificates will be awarded winners. Thirteen outdoor minded gals started out for WAA's Camp Johnson Friday. They sure did not know what fate awaited! "Scoop" Gilbert got the weekend off to a rather warm start. She put three logs in the potbelly stove in the bunk room so that they would burn one at a time all night to keep a constant comfortable temperature. But that courageous '48er, Paula Tichy, came to the rescue. When the others left to cool off, Paula remained and valiantly regulated the drafts. Someone suggested she throw cold water on the stove to cool it off but she knew better. Saturday morning those full of vim and vigor took a hike. Foor Audrey Weller '51 lost her shoe in the mud. Our heroine Paula saved the day. After diving into the mud, head first, she extricated the shoe. Ray! for Paula!!! Bortnick Rel eases Golf Schedule The coming of Spring and the greening of the grass means only one thing—Golf. Once again State will sponsor a golf team which will be matched against teams Iron; Siena, Union, Utica, and Albany Business College. At. the f.rst practice over twenty men turned out to get their muscles limbered up for the swinging of their woods and irons. Several of last years squad are back including Joe Biviano—last year's captain, Al Beninati, Jim Bowen, Joe Carosella, and Marty Bortnick. There is also a lot of promising material among the new comers. The team is still looking for a faculty coach, and they hope to have one by the time of their first match on April 27 against Siena. We hope to see a team this year that will turn in as good a record as State teams in the past have. Golf was dropped after a good season in 1942 due to the war and was brought back to campus last year. From all indications, it seems to be back to stay. This week practice tor the squad and tryouts for the six-man team will be held at the Municipal Golf Course. For further information .see Marty Bortnick.
