Students To Organize
New Photography Club
A special meeting for the purpose of organizing a Photography
Club at State College will be held
at Brubacher Hall Monday, December 8, from 7:30 until 9 p. m.
Students who are interested in any
phases of photography are invited
to attend this meeting. Those who
are interested but unable to attend
the meeting should contact William Pizer '55 via Student Mail.
They will then be notified as to
subsequent meetings. Richard S.
Hauser, Instructor in Biology, has
consented to be an advisor to this
club. The last camera club at State
was dissolved three years ago.

Mrs. Edith P. Hayter, of W. M.

of Muhlfelder's, Solomon's and the

STATU COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY. DECEMBER 9, 1 0 8 2
A* A/sei 9t
By ABEL BLATTMAN
There are a few heartening observations we can make, even after
the ' decidedly lackadaisical stint
turned in by the Varsity last Tuesday against the Alumni. In our
humble opinion, these guys are a
top notch aggregation. Potentially
and theoretically they have all the
qualities of a first rate team.
The squad displayed drive, speed,
ball-handling ability, and spots of
finesse. Only one thing was lacking and that was spirit. If the guys
get a little of it into their play
they will have everything, and be
real tough. It is a shame that the
first game the team plays is the
roughest, but maybe it will jolt the
guys into a little life. We hope so.
The game also served to illustrate another sore spot. Good teams
are at a decided disadvantage on a
small court, and our team looked a
little cramped. It appears to us that
the guys want to run, and can, if
given the room, but the confines of
Page Hall slow them down somewhat. As far ns this matter is concerned, all we can do is cross our
fingers and hope that maybe, some
day, in the not too distant future,
we'll have better facilities.
The bood showing of the Alumni
in Tuesday's game can be largely
attributed to two former State Varsity player:; by the name of Bob.
Messrs, Hausner and Brown led the
Grad attack, the former exhibiting
a pair of twinkle toes that we never
before noticed, and the latter displaying all the qualites that helped
make him the basketball legend he
has become at this institution.
The IM hoop leagues are off to
a flying start, and so far our only
comment is on the better than average officiating. If this calibre of
officiating is kept up It'll be one
less gripe In the school. Of course,
it would help if the assigned teams
would supply the officials necessary.
We would like to take this opportunity to predict great things for
the Varsity Basketball team this
season, and wish them luck towards
this end.
Potter Beats APA
For Football Crown
The IM football league finally
closed Sunday, October 25, as Potter handed APA a 14 to 0 defeat.
In the opening minutes of play,
Paul Ward crashed over center to
nab Bob Hausner behind the APA
goal line for a .safety. Later in the
same period, John Morrlssey flicked
a jump pass to Frank Fay for a six
i:oln.tr,
In the second ha if, APA .started
a drive, but it sta'.icd before they
could score. Potter then knuckled
down and marched downfield Into
pav dirt. Pat Carlo slanted off
'a-jk'c for the touchdown. This was
the final tally of the game.
On the opening play Jim Bennett,
APA's defensive end wa> Injured and
was lo.it for the entire game.
Schat'itl, Ward Star Defensively
George Sr'iaerti and Paul Ward
sparked Poller's fine defense. Pat
Carlo also did a fine j:>b at defensive end. John Morr's ey and Ray
Champlin gave Potter their offent \\ e punch.
John Lucas and Al Brown seemed
to keep the APA defenie alive. Both
boys played line ball.
Tom Shumanski

APA Defeated
Leagues A and B saw no changes
in the top spots in the last two
outings of the IM Bowling teams.
APA and SLS continued to dominate leagues, but the unbeaten
streak of APA was ended.
In League A, on Nov. 25, KB
drew a bye, while Van Derzee rolled over the Rousers and Thurlow
gained a 3-1 decision over APA.
The Commuters split 2-2 with SLS,
the Misfits bounced the winless
Finks again, while Potter was edging the K-Bobbles 3-1.
In last Tuesday's competition in
A League, APA bounced back to
beat KB 2230-2383, and Van Derzee squeezed by Thurlow 2164-2129.
In the downstairs matches SLS
dumped the Finks 2119-1152, the
Commuters beat the K-Bobbles
2025-1910 and the Misfits drubbed
Potter Club 2202-1876.
In Tuesday's contests Tom Shumanski of Thurlow Hall rolled the
high triple for the week with a 543
and Boo Sinkeldan was also the
high single man for the day with
a 207.

Last night's games marked the official end of the competitive volleyball season. Next week the play-offs
will be held to determine the
champion team. In retrospect, we'd
like to say that the season on a
whole was only fairly successful In
so far as it fulfilled the purposes of
WAA and the league games. The
failure, we feel lies on the shoulders of two groups of participants;
first, some of the individual teams
who lacked the necessary initiative
and interest to show up with a full
team. These teams were in a definite minority since most of the
squads showed spirit and enthusiasm. Also, In our opinion, the referseing left a little to be desired in
tome instances. We wished that the
refs had been a lot more familiar
with volleyball rules, and, too, that
they had made accurate decisions
for special cases more quickly.

is to take place on the level of constructive criticism.
Council voted to suspend discussion en the proposed Student Facilities Board budget until such time
as the status of the Board and its
relation to SA can be more definitely established, its policies investigated, and Student Union Board's
role in the fund determined. The
motion was passed by unanimous
vote sines it was felt that SA is
unsure of the Board's established
purpose, control, and policy.
The Christmas Sing for the assembly has been scheduled for December 12, while the Athletic
Board's report on football has been
tentatively set for the same date.
The Rivalry Sing, formerly postponed, has been set for February 27.
The first play, a college satire,
was directed by Richard lacobson,
and at this time we would like to
congratulate the director on his
fresh choice of cast. It is with great
pride and pleasure that we welcome
Harry Mills back to the State College stage, and we hope to see more
of his talents. Newcomers Jim Conway, Dick Woods, Owen Smith and
Stu Macnofsky might possibly have
done better with a better script or
more adequate directing. In our
opinion the whole production was
mediocre—mediocre in sets, acting
and script, with some highlights as
sound-effects.
Considering the type of the second play and the usual reception
of such by State College audiences,
we can say that Miss Wiles deserves
credit for a production that gradually took hold of the audience and
had them well in hand by the end
of the play. The technical aspects
were largely responsible for this.
Miss Hopkins did an outstanding
job with some tendencies toward
ings. We should like to acknowledge
Mr. Tjubliner's role and hope that
he will appear again on our stage.
Mr. Orser's performance was pale
despite his well-assumed haughtiness. The ending left us with the
feeling that plays such as this do
have a place at State College.

Christmas List
Is your Christmas list listless? Does it sag in the wrong
places? Then what you need is
a little Co-op-eration.
Downstairs at the State College Co-op you can find the
necessary gift items for everyone on that bit of paper you've
been trying to hide from all
those prying eyes. For Mom
there are informative magazines
that no mother would consider
being without, such as "Hunting
and Fishing," and "Baseball Digest." Anyone's father would be
glad to have one of those stuffed
dogs to call his own. The compacts available would certainly
come in handy On little brother's
next date, wnen he wants to
make sure his face is on right.
Do you have a special someone overseas, girls? The Co-op
has packages of Hershey bars
conveniently boxed for mailing
"over there." And, if you want
him to come back safe, be sure
to s nd a box of "life-savers."

The General Platoff Don Cossack
Chorus and Dancers, under the direction of N. Kostrukoff, will appear at Page Hall Monday night a*
8:30 p. m„ under the sponsorship
of Music Council.
During the thirteen year history
of the Chorus it has performed
over 5,575 concerts. Many of these
concerts have been of a religious
nature, while others have been for
the U. S. O., both in the United
States and in the Far East.
Make Second Appearance
The Don Cossacks last appearance
at State College was In 1947.
The reception which they received
here prompted one of the members
to say that the Chorus preferred
college audiences to any other type
of audience.
Cossacks Visit Various Countries
The leather-booted entertainers
have visited sixty-five
different
countries during their tours and
have given concerts in such famous
places as the Cathedral of Notre
Dame in Paris and Carnegie Hall in
New York. The chorus has seen the
Eiffle Towet the Parliament Building in Lor. don, the Pyramids of
Egypt and the holy places of Jerusalem. Wild beasts of South Africa,
.earthquakes in Chili, and revolutions in Brazil are no strangers to
the Cossacks.
But the Don Cossacks are not just
adventurers, they are highly skilled
entertainers. The New York Times
has said that the Chorus "still
stands among the best choral groups
now to be heard in our concert
halls." The Boston Post has said,
"When they stamp onto the stage
in perfect formation with their, military bearing and bright uniforms
you get your first Impulse to cheer
and your second one when they begin to sing."
