increase means that many problems will arise
which can only be solved through the cooperation of both the at'udenfa and administration.
One of the more serious problems which

has already arisen is the difficulty that has
been found in locating adequate housing and
eating facilities. More students than ever
will be living in private homes. In short, we
will be a college of commuters rather than of
resident students.
The, administration has located accomodations for as many students as possible, and
they have gone one step further by instituting a cafeteria plan which should receive the
immediate attention of the undergraduates,

Cooperation . . .
The State College NEWS is published
every Friday for the purpose of keeping the
student body informed and interested in the
activities of the college. Those on the NEWS
staff do their best to report the news accurately and thoroughly.
However, before the year is over, many
complaints will be heard that this or that
organization is not receiving enough publicity or that one group is being favored. Let
us state our policy. We will do everything in
our power to play fair in publishing the most
important news but all heads of organizations are urged to make sure that their information reaches us on time for our Wednesday night deadline. At times, there will
be material which will have to be discarded
at the discretion of the NEWS Board due
to lack of space, If we weren't interested
in promoting State College and its activities,
we wouldn't be working for the NEWS.
Cooperation is all we ask—from both the
faculty and student organizations,

STATB COLLKCH
Well, hello, everybody! We're off again. You've a l ready gone t h r o u g h all t h i s business of a n eerie
screech, a g r e a t big hug a n d a "so WONderful t o see
you again!", n o doubt so I'll try to r e s t r a i n myself.
It Is nice t o be back, though, looking forward t o a n other enjoyable a n d rewarding year a t " o u r o w n
d e a r N. Y. S. C. T." I t dosen't take long to know you're
definitely back, either, w h a t with moving in, m e e t ing new people, invariably c h a n g i n g schedules, registering etc.
WHA' H O P P E N ' ?
One of t h e things t h a t shocked our usually s h o c k proof Seniors was t h e practice-teaching schedule. As
per usual, t h e circumstances of t h e Individual w e r e n ' t
considered. Some of us find it necessary t o work in
the dorms for p a r t of our room a n d board or t o t a k e
some outside j o b t o help us t h r o u g h school, so m u c h
so, in fact, t h a t these jobs m e a n t h e difference b e tween a t t e n d i n g or n o t a t t e n d i n g college. If, a s i n
some cases, a student is assigned to a school of p e r h a p s a n h o u r ' s commuting distance or t o one so situated as to require "living in," these jobs a r e p h y sically out of t h e question. Besides, living a n d t r a v e l ing expenses will increase.
T h e n , too, there is the problem of required courses
t h a t c a n n o t be fulfilled unless t h e s t u d e n t Is a t t h e
college, teaching in Milne. AND, to a d d t o all this,
no one knew of his assignment 'till h e received this
week. Somewhere in t h e m a c h i n e r y s o m e t h i n g j u s t
isn't clicking, when the needs of t h e individual a r e
so completely ignored in making up t h e t e a c h i n g a s signments. We hope someone up high will work on
organizing the setup enough so t h a t we c a n be sure
of staying in college or a t least of g r a d u a t i n g w h e n
we're supposed to.
A NEW V. P .
T h e sad news comes in t h a t Heinz Engel isn't
coming back this year. We're going to miss h i m ; h e ' s
a fine all-round fellow with plenty of stuff on t h e ball.
It's going to be a tough job replacing our smiling
vice-president, but it's n o t impossible. T h e r e a r e several people in the class of 50 w h o c a n t a k e over for
him a n d do a n efficient job. These people a r e c e r tain to be nominated; let's hope those w h o h a v e t h e
time will feel obligated t o do their- duty, so t h a t t h i s
time we'll make a real election of it.

IN THE U. S. AIR FORCE?
The ceiling's unlimited I Men who enter the
Air Force as Aviation Cadets become 2nd
Lieutenants within a year. From there on, they
can climb as far and as fast as their ability and
the needs of the service permit. Under the Air
Force expansion program, there is plenty of
room for advancement. 2nd Lieutenants automatically become 1st Lieutenants after three
years of service; are eligible to become Captains, Majors and Lieutenant Colonels after 7 ,
14 and 21 years respectively. More rapid promotions are frequent. Never before has the
opportunity for making the Air Force a permanent career been so favorable, especially to
the men in Aviation Cadet Pilot Training.

English Professor Glimpses
Life In These United States
On campus this week was Miss
Shirley Gordon, of the history
staff, University of London, who
is touring the United States
visiting American teachers' colleges. She finds the system here
(at State Institutions for future
teachers) comparable to the
system now being pursued in
the British Isles.
She tells us that although the
English campuses <and commons) are not quite as populated with the highest form of
life, (homo sapiens, that is) vets
on campus are numbered among
the many.
Like us, future teachers enrolled in the University of London spend three years on their
stamping grounds, (campus, to
those who know) but, unlike us,
they all spend their senior year
practice teaching somewhere out
in the great nowhere.
Emphasis on social fitness and
maturity, rather than on academicism, is greater, thinks
